“Best Philly roll anywhere. Always big and tight not falling apart like other places nearby. I refuse to go anywhere else for cali rolls as well!“

“Yummy Bubble Tea! Especially Mango“

“I want to take a moment to praise Sam & Cody for outstanding customer service. Everyone at this store is typically friendly, prompt, and customer experience oriented. I had a catering order today and Cody even helped me to my car. They always acknowledge me when I walk through the door, always keep me posted, and always deliver the best service possible. They are collectively always absolutely a pleasure!“

“Excellent Sushi, wonderful service. Fresh, they don't try to rush like some places would but don't keep you waiting when you do decide what you want. Also, the best tasting authentic japanese soy sauc“

“Went there with wife and kids yesterday (11/2/25) and we loved it. It was my wife's birthday and we wanted something different. It did not disappoint! Food was great, service was flawless, price was acceptable.“

“Some of the best and creative sushi in town. 17 coursed and well done.“

“The Good: My wife and I are from California and have been missing good seafood and sushi. Nashville still really lacks on good quality fish, and when you do find it, you're paying a premium for just good quality that is not special to the west or east coasts.

That being said, this place does provide good sushi. The fish and flavor combinations were good. It satisfied our sush cravings and it was not disappointing. We did their top level omakase experience which included touches of bone marrow and truffle here and there + a bump of caviar. For refreshments, they only serve water, coke. and sprite. But our host was kind enough to grab a diet coke from the hotel and didnt even charge us for it. Really nice of them.

The alcohol selection is very limited, but looked delicious. We are on a no alcohol kick for this month so we didnt try any. They also have a couple of mocktails which were delicious.

The chef was kind and personable. He did a really good job keeping up conversations while keeping up with the food experience. Even taught me some tips while cooking at home.

The atmosphere was intimate and chic. Small seating area with good lighting and decor. Music from the restaurant was great and not too loud.

The not so bad: There seemed to be a nightclub below us, which was distracting only becuase I'm easily distracted. No one else seemed to mind it.

Also like I mentioned before, you are paying a premium for sushi in the Nashville area, which still a disappointment. Our total bill was just under $500 including tax and tip. There are three levels for the Omakase starting at $75/person going up to $175/person. The level of differentiation between each is not really worth it. So I would do one of the first 2 tiers next time.

We also have not tried Noko or Sushi Bar yet for comparison, but when we do I'll update my review.

That being said, it is worth checking out and we will probably be back again.“

“Excellent service and helpful service“

“This place is awesome. Food never disappoints. Will definitely be a repeat customer.“

“Very enjoyable evening and experience. The wasabi martini was amazing. The spring rolls were phenomenal. The chocolate mousse dessert was amazing. Highly recommended. Well worth the cost.“

“What a hidden gem! Came last night with a friend and everything was delicious. Will be back again and again!“

“One of my 2 favorite sushi places in Hendersonville! The only place with Mochi as far as I know, though!“

“My 18 year old Son and I ate there for the first time yesterday. Absolutely delicious with a joyful atmosphere. We certainly will return! Yum!“

“Rock N Roll Sushi probably just became my new favorite takeout. Price, quality, quantity, and flavor are all five stars. If y'all are near Donelson, give it a try, it's so good. 🤤 Edit to add- after reviewing comments on other reviews, this restaurant *definitely* just became my new favorite. I can't wait to come back, and tip well! 😝“

“Clean and bright, easy parking, well rounded menu with lots of choices. Portions sizes for more expensive rolls are generous, lower priced rolls are smaller but all very fresh tasting. Udon soup has a smoky rich taste, lots of noodles with a few raw vegetables. The only negative was the frozen fried tofu which is like a sponge - fresh or fresh fried would taste much better. Good selection of alcohol, the sakes, like the coconut lemongrass one are excellent but pricey. We have visited 4 times and have never been disappointed.“

“Great Sushi at a great value. Service was incredible!“

“Destiny was an amazing waitress. She took great care of us and we will definitely be back!!“

“I have to give you all 5 stars, because of the great accommodations that you all made for my friend who has sensitivities to gluten and is also a vegan. I have 2 friends that have this background and my other friend and I went to a restaurant and they were unable to make accommodations and they wouldn't even use the gluten free sauce she bought brand new from the store. Whereas at Blue Sushi, not only do you all have a dedicated gluten free and vegan menu, you all even were able to adapt other menu items. So, I wanted to thank you on my friends behalf 🙏🏾.“

“This sushi place really surprised me. I had passed by it so many times without trying it, but I’m glad I finally did. The food was fresh, flavorful, and better than I expected. Definitely a pleasant surprise and a spot I’ll be visiting again.“

“Our dinner at Jeff Ruby’s tonight was great! Our servers, Ama and Tyler, were phenomenal. Great atmosphere and good food! Highly recommend!“

“Delish! Highly recommend!“

“Best Sushi spot I’ve had.

When it comes to MoriMori it’s far more likely for me to love a roll than it is for me to even just like one.
The Sean’s Special is my favorite roll and a go-to every time as well as the Heart Attack appetizer.
If you’re looking for a roll that’s a little different and on the sweeter side then the White Snow is amazing.
Been here 5 times now and every time I’m impressed.

Great Atmosphere, Great Drinks, Great Service
Incredible prices for how large and packed the rolls are.
Deserves more recognition.“

“After a delayed flight with a shortened layover, we were STARVING. We were able to grab containers of pre-made sushi, take a seat, and were in and out in under 20 minutes. The staff was very friendly, the food was great, and we weren't stuck waiting in line.“

“First time trying them out Was referred by ALOT of ppl And i must say —> Everything was AMAZING down to the ginger dressing on the salad 🤤🤤😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨🤩 1000/10 !!!!! I WILL FOR SURE BE BACK 😊😊🤤🤤“

“The service is great.The food is eehh.The prices are way over priced and I can’t say it was worth it. They didn’t wow me for what we paid. It wasn’t bad. Just not good.The salmon was way over cooked and too salty.The lettuce wraps were also a bit over priced.It is just a bit too much for us. We are used to resort prices. But wow.Drinks were good! It is really loud in here as well especially at night with people walking around everywhere.“

“We had a few friends out to go to dinner at Sunda. To start this review, Mario and Justin were awesome. It really seems like the staff works very well with Mario and has a good time. Our group gave a some creative license on the food to Justin, who was serving us. The whole experience was one of a kind and truly exceptional. We had a few bottles of wine and some of the sake. Everyone at the table enjoyed what Mario, the manager, suggested for appetizers. We started off with some interesting sushi, spicy edamame, and shishito peppers. One creation called the Great White was beyond belief. Try it if you are in. A few more sushi creations went around the table were the salmon crudo, the yuzu tuna, the tuna truffle pizza, and the smoke show (which was a cool little presentation). My wife had the Tom Yum Sea Bass which was short of amazing. I had the pancit canton with chicken, which was the simplest of all of the adult dishes. Justin brought out a huge "boat" of sushi for one of my friends. It was probably one of the most adventurous and tasty sushi dishes I have ever seen. If you have kids, you know it means a ton when your child really loves their dinner. Mario suggested a salmon bento box, of which the kid loved every bite. The lychee mochi ice cream was a great dessert to end with. Mario sat with us for a few discussing the food and my child trusted his opinion on food so much she tried her first, second and third salmon nigiri! To finish we had the Ube pie and the bibingka cake because I like Ube and Filipino food. The pie was great but the bibingka cake took the show. It had an amazing flavor profile. The service was probably the best I have ever had. The staff's knowledge of the menu and what will pair well was on point. We cannot wait to go back after the holidays! Billy Dec did an amazing job with this restaurant and definitely has the right staff for Nashville. Be adventurous with your food and enjoy your experience here. You will not regret it! Mario and Justin-- appreciate the hospitality and awesome experience!“

“Delicious, service above par, cozy surroundings, large portions. Full bar. If you can’t find something on their extensive, double sided menu, then you’re not hungry. My friends and I ate all. 😋“

“Hands down the best sushi in town. The owner is amazing and always greets me by name when I walk in. She truly makes it feel like home. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and made with care. If you have not tried it yet, you are missing out.“

“First trimester has me limited on food. Last night I was feeling so awful. Nothing heavy sounded good. Looked up places near us & they came up. It was 10/10 what my belly needed. The sticky rice was amazing , the miso soup was SO good. Got sushi too & didn't get a chance to eat it but excited for it today. Also, appreciate their side options. My kiddo wouldn't eat a full meal but the side option allowed us to get her something she actually would. 10/10 will eat again when in the area! Also appreciated the to go option & the wait time wasn't bad.“

“My partner and I visited Arigato Sayonara for the first time tonight and we had the best time! The service was excellent, and food was not only delicious but well-priced, and we truly appreciated how David, our hibachi chef, managed his grill. We can't wait to come back to try more sushi and items from the kitchen! We will definitely see if we can have David as our chef too-- he has an amazing personality, really engages with his guests, and handles cross contamination SO professionally! He's just the best! The lovely ladies handling FOH were fabulous too-- attentive, friendly, and very fun as well. All around 10/10!“

“First off, let me start with the service. The staff were welcoming and kind. The inside decor was clean and the vibe was inviting. A true hidden gem, this place had barely anyone inside but anyone who entered couldn’t help but smile and have fun as they were being treated by servers with infectious smiles and positive attitudes. Now onto our next subject. The food… My goodness did the food come out quick and they did not sacrifice quality food for good service either. The Crab Rangoon might have been the best appetizer I have ever eaten. It came out in a mere two minutes after ordering and then the main dish I had was Teriyaki Chicken and fried rice. The fried rice was soft, sweet and hot. Everyone needs to visit Poy Thai, I left with a new type of joy I have never felt before. When Jesus comes back He needs to visit Poy Thai.“

“Be best sushi I have ever eaten and I've eating sushi all over North America, between Toronto and then to New York and then to LA and then down to Florida.... This is by far the best of I have ever eaten... I apologize I can't remember the name of our waiter but he was Chinese and he was the best waiter I've ever had...“

“First time for us go eat there Friday night! It was amazing! The food was amazing. You get plenty, and the people were amazing.“

“This place was amazing!!!! Dumplings, sushi, lo mein JUST AWESOME!! Great service (full menu everything you ever want to taste ?) worth every penny!!“

“AMAZING! 10/10 Delicious food that came out fast and beautiful. Highly recommend for a delightful lunch or dinner!“

“Yesterday we had a fabulous dinner at KOI SUSHI THAI, EAST in Nashville….. it was wonderful! We started with Squid Salad and Gyoza then ate our way through totally yummy Crab Bang, YumYum, Eel Nigiri, White Tuna, & Sweet Shrimp… crunchy and delicious! Then we topped it off with Mochi ice cream! Every bite was better than we’ve had in a long time on the road! We had a “Trainee” server…and the rest of their friendly staff helped her provide superior attention! So glad we found KOI SHSHI THAI early in our stay herein Nashville! We’ll be back!“

“A wonderful and nice place to eat. The staff is very nice and polite.“

“So first of all excellent experience all around beautiful place beautiful views easy to get to easy to self park in the Sheraton garage . 10/10 service from our server Connor and the hostess Anniesia . Both employees were kind sweet and very welcoming . The negative isn’t shocking . The garage is $15 for two hours we missed it by 3 min and we had to pay $35 so if you go be back 2 min before the 2 hour mark ! great night out for our anniversary thank you Skye Lounge team . what we ordered was a 10/10 and from 5pm-6pm full sushi rolls are half off“

“We love our Sapporo family. It was our 15th anniversary today and we chose them for an impromptu lunch: always the best service and consideration for their patrons. Thank you so much Sapporo Rivergate“

“They had excellent Sushi 🍱 and very friendly people“

“I give this place a 9 out of 10. The food is served at a reasonable price. Comes out at a great temperature cooked perfectly. The one point deduction is from the fried rice. It is a bit bland but when mixed in with the teriyaki or hibachi it comes to life but I wouldn't eat it on its own. The dumplings Are also cooked to perfection the perfect amount of soft and crispy. The staff is very nice and easy on the eyes. I would definitely eat here again. It has a great flavor profile and isn't that what matters the most. I also tried the Miso soup but I don't miso soup only tried it because it was so cheap and you never know.“

“Food here is amazing and I love the coupon they have on the back of my local Kroger Register tapes. Great to save money now I can go more often. Thank you“

“Absolutely the best service and food! Love it and will definitely be back“

“Great food and music go visit“

“Amazing food and great service.“

“Best Philly roll anywhere. Always big and tight not falling apart like other places nearby. I refuse to go anywhere else for cali rolls as well!“

“Aiyara Thai is the closest Thai restaurant to our apartment, but even after driving in every direction within 20 minutes trying other places, this one is still the best.

If you’re someone who doesn’t like overly “fishy” pad Thai, this is the place for you. I’ve had a lot of pad Thai over the years, and many places use a heavy amount of fish sauce, which just isn’t for me. Aiyara Thai gets the balance exactly right, and it’s absolutely delicious.

The staff are always friendly, the service is great, and our food is consistently ready on time. We’ve ordered from here many times and it never disappoints.

10/10 recommend!“

“I was eating there sometimes and the place looks very nice and comfortable, the food its rich portion and tasty, I can recommend for everyone cause is family and friendly, the staff is very nice, I really love that place anytime you can enjoy it. 100% 💯“

“Wonderful food and company as well“
