32 Best Sushi Bars near Spanaway

“The food was very good and the staff friendly. Good portions, fresh and hot. Relatively quick service. I will definitely go again when I am in the area. Don't be put off by the slightly sketchy strip mall that it's a part of, it's nice inside.“

“This restaurant is top 3 lunch/dinner spots in the state. I eat here at least once a week. Food is always prepared perfectly, prices are fair and competitive, and the staff are kind and engaging. I bring my kids also and they have a great kids meal that even my picky toddlers will finish. Recommend the lunch time specials- food portions are large.“

“Each time I go here I get the spicy tonkotsu ramen. The char siu is perfectly grilled so you can taste the carmelization. It is bad etiquette to take out your phone when there's hot ramen on the table so I don't have photos, but trust me.“

“Everything was excellent from our host, food, and especially our Server Courtney was amazing.“

“Great food! We tried the Godzilla Roll (it was so huge), Spicy Chicken Karaage, and Eel Nigiri and everything was super fresh and delicious. Portions were huge and we were able to take some home for leftovers.“

“I used to come here almost every day when I worked across the river bridge in Fife, I would come when they had the two old guys back in the mid 2010's and their sushi is the greatest sushi in the world. I've never had better sushi in my life. It completely changed my perspective on sushi and they have always done an elite job on their products. Here's to hoping i can go back again some day, because you should go. It really is incredible!“

“Been coming here for months and the nigiri is always delicious. The promotional stuff is very hit or miss but I’m not gonna fault Kura for having questionable flavor combos/profiles when their baseline has so many strong offerings! Whenever we visit, we almost always get Ana as our server. She’s amazing, always friendly, and never fails to make us laugh. 10 out of 10 vibe ✨“

“Our favorite place now! My order: Unagi (nigiri), Vegetable Tempura, Teriyaki Chicken Lunch Special. Dad's oder: Teriyaki Chicken Lunch Special and 5 order of maguro to go. The unagi was the best i have had in over 10 years. The tempura was light, crunchy and flavorful. My Dad is very particular about food and I am known to order the same item over and over. I have been trying different things and pleased with each one here. Everything was as good as it could possibly be. So happy!“

“Sushi and Wok exceeded my expectations!
The service was genuinely amazing — super kind, quick, and made the whole experience feel welcoming. I wasn’t expecting such quality sushi and Asian food in this location, but everything I ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.

The sashimi was melt-in-your-mouth good, and the specialty roll had the perfect balance of spicy and creamy. I also ordered a cooked dish with fried rice and beef — it was packed with flavor and cooked just right.

You can tell they care about both the food and the people. Clean place, great portions, and a solid mix of sushi and wok-style dishes. I’ll definitely be coming back next time I’m in the area!“

“I tried this place on a wim and boy I'm glad I did!
Food is very fresh, tasty and big portions.
The price is fair and great if you consider the portion size.
It's very clean and bright inside and there are 2 big screen tvs playing sports if that's some thing your into while having a great lunch or dinner.
The Sushi rolls are 2 for 24.99 as of 12-20-2025 and 1 could pass for dinner if it's just you.
If you order lunch or dinner plate and a Sushi roll you should have plenty leftover for a small lunch the next day.
Definitely try this place out it has plenty of different dishes and Sushi rolls to try.“

“Came in late on a Sunday night for a take out order and received phenomenal service. We were probably close to closing time, but they ushered us in without any hesitation, took our large order and were so kind as to bring us a few snacks while we waited for our order. We were happy to wait as we hadn’t called ahead, but so appreciated the welcoming gesture. Great bar seating if you wanted to watch a game while dining in with some sake. We got multiple sushi rolls, gyoza, and the order came with a few miso soups and edamame, all of which was heartily enjoyed on our return home. Loved the sushi boat to-go tray which made it so easy to share. California roll did not skimp on the crab. Good food and super nice staff - so glad we stopped in!“

“Food was very good. The vibe ain't the best, so if that isn't a deal breaker for you, or even a factor then this would be the perfect spot. Hamachi was delicious. Rice was the only thing I could complain about. The few other sushi joints I've been to in this area delivered a better flavored sushi rice.“

“Hubby was craving sushi, so stopped and ordered a Surprise roll for him, a long with a Tempura California roll. I ordered two Philadelphia rolls for myself and a chicken teriyaki lunch. The sushi was delicious and perfect. The chicken teriyaki lunch was wrong. It had spicy chicken and two servings of rice. I was really looking forward to the salad. Otherwise, definitely going back. Just double checking the order before leaving.“

“Service and atmosphere was fantastic. The waiter was very friendly and attentive. Food came out very quick. We ordered two different bento boxes which were great -- extremely generous portions for the price! Miso soup that came with it really hit the spot, and the spicy chicken teriyaki was fun. If I lived nearby this place would be a mainstay for sure.“

“Solid teriyaki that's actually consistent in Tacoma. The food is what you would expect at a teriyaki joint, and the portions are good. Casual, welcoming vibe and consistently great quality wise. One of the best teriyaki spots in Tacoma. Highly recommend!“

“Recently moved back home after 10 years living on the east coast. This was, hands down, the BEST sushi I have had since leaving Washington. The food is so fresh! I’m normally a tuna person but the Salmon Ladder was UNBELIEVABLY TASTY. Make sure to squeeze the lemon on top! Miso soup was perfect, and the spicy rainbow was so yummy! Even ordering this for delivery was perfect.“

“1st let me say..had food twice, once from order service and other in person. Both times the service and food were great! The manager is very nice and respectful along with the staff. The funny differences from other sushi restaurants are the fact you have to order everything by QR code ( so if you want a mobile device free night..not gonna happen) and your order comes via a robot! Now that I found funny because I kept on despite directions from the “robot waitress” trying to take food from the other shelves until I got used to things. Speaking on getting “used to”..try maybe 1 or 2 times order something small to get used to how the quantities are served. My friend meant to only get 2 of something and ended up with 3 and I had to eat the extra 1 for respect of the dining rules “whatever is left when you are done you must pay for”. Now the “all you can eat” bit. Please understand that the food here is really good and that they offer quite a unique variety of items to try and eat. That is the meaning of the “all you can eat” here. This is not a legit “all you can eat” restaurant . For $30 you are getting way good quality..so do you want good quality or high quantity? In this tight market you can’t really get both. So please be mindful & respectful of this. They do sadly have techniques to let you know when you are reaching “their” maximum..and after much thought…I can respect that. Overall the food, service and everything else was excellent. I ate mostly the sashimi which I thought tasted fresh and buttery when needed to be and when ate rolls I had the rolls that were cooked and those were handled expertly. My friends had the coconut shrimp which was the favorite for them and such like items. One said the ribs were tough and the fried rice was too hard. Overall I will return and be more “menu venturing “ knowing that there is actually a limit. Again..out of respect, please respect quality over quantity.“

“This place never disappoints. The service is great and the food is amazing 💖“

“I randomly found this place after dropping my son off at the movies, so glad I did! The cashier was SSSO friendly, the menu looked delicious! Everything from the way they dressed the side salad to the spicy teriyaki, all of it was delicious, and I got it to-go! Will definitely be adding this place to my fav places.“

“Absolutely phenomenal sushi experience!
Everything from the moment we walked in was perfect. The staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive without ever feeling intrusive. The fish was unbelievably fresh—melt-in-your-mouth good—and every roll was beautifully prepared with great balance and flavor.

The presentation was stunning and even the small details—like the quality of the soy sauce and the perfectly seasoned rice—showed how much care goes into their food. We tried several specialty rolls, and every single one was a hit. The roll were a little on the smaller side but made up for it with the taste. Definitely quality over quantity.

The atmosphere was clean, cozy, and relaxing, making it a great place for both a casual night out and a more special occasion. This is easily some of the best sushi I’ve had in a long time.

Highly recommended. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“I always get the vegetarian bento box, which has a nice variety and always fills me up and then some.“

“The Zen has the best food and great workers! We will be back soon❤️“

“Inviting, clean dining room. Good atmosphere. Attentive and speedy service. Got the udon and salmon express roll and both were excellent. Definitely want to come back to try more of the sushi. Just a really on point Japanese restaurant. Highly recommend!“

“oh my goodness! This place was crazy fun! Family owned, was open through Covid. Hibachi tables with very experienced comedic chefs, sushi also available. Lots of birthday celebrating going on around us. There were also some private dining areas
We had a great time, food was excellent and plenty of leftovers for two more meals! Well done Sapporo!“

“I have been coming here for years and the food is awesome!“

“Loved the food! On our first trip, we had one of the suchi options, Chulichi shrimp, the ceviche trio, and mango margaritas. All of them were excellent, subtly spiced, and simply delicious. Yes, the music was a bit loud but it was manageable and did not prevent discussion at the table. Our waitress Clarita and bus-person David provided excellent recommendations and great service. We will definitely go back and bring more friends this time!“

“Me and my boyfriend since we started dating back in 23 have always come here it’s our goto place! the people even remember our order now because we come here so often. We love the chicken teriyaki we come here at least once a week but this is our favorite place no where else compares and the food is the same delicious meal every time no inconsistency!“

“Love this place, been going here for about 5yrs now.. sometimes if there really busy they are kind enough to give me soup while I wait, or if it's cold and nasty weather.. very kind.. and the cooks deserve a lot of credit as well.. thank you for help feeding my family.. wish I could eat there more..“

“Okay Teryaki, but too much sauce on my teriyaki,sauce is a bit too strong and way too sweet,and salad sauce container on top of the food ,kinda unsanitary :/ , this place use to be better, so I may come back next year to see if any improvement.“
