    One of my favorite smaller sushi restaurants. I love recommending this place because not a lot of people know about it, but once you do, you'll keep going back. The staff are SO nice and always remember you when you come back. These rolls are phenomenal. It's smaller and cozy but worth it the wait

    A variety of delicious sushi rolls!

    We met with family for lunch at AMA Sushi today. We were a party of 6 so, we did need to wait a bit to sit down. But, it was totally worth the wait. I only took a photo of one of our plates to share. We also had a smaller plate with sushi rolls and sashimi. We have been to Momo Sushi a couple of times and love it. But, because it's not open right now, we went to Ama. Service was excellent and the food was to die for. Although we live on the other side of the river (St. Paul), I will definitely eat here again. I can't wait until the next visit!!!

    Stumbled across this sushi spot on social media and decided to give it a try. Glad we did, sushi was fresh and nicely presented. Customer service was excellent. The restaurant is well kept and cozy. We live a good drive away but will still come back and visit as it is will worth the drive.

    Second visit, tried a few special rolls as well as sashimi. Still not impressed with the rolls - far too much rice and panko crumb for me. The sashimi is excellent, enjoyed that! This will be my last try at Ama - definitely better places around.

    Lunch special: Any 2 Rolls for $9.99   Sweet Potato & Spicy Tuna Roll

    Yesterday I went to Ama Sushi in Edina for their lunch special! First off they start you with complimentary miso soup when you sit down. Trust me right out of the cold, NOTHING hits better. Then the lunch special is wild. You can get any 2 rolls for $9.99 and 3 rolls for $12.99. This has got to be the best overall lunch sushi deal in the twin cities!! The staff was very professional, and warm when we walked in. Very much felt right at home. It isnt the biggest space but they use it well and we were in and out in under an hour. TLDR: Ama Sushi is an excellent sushi spot and an instant favorite for us. High quality fish, affordable prices, quick service and we liked the calm and chill vibes!

    We came from North Dakota and stopped for dinner at AMA Sushi. It turned out the restaurant was quite small and there were quite a long waiting list. We decided to wait anyway. Outside there's a waiting area with heater which was nice. We didn't wait terribly long which was good. Staffs were very friendly and attentive. Sushi quality was good. Our fav was Naruto Roll. The restaurant is in a very nice neighborhood. There are a bunch of boutique shops nearby. Plenty of street parking.

    The food is awesome, but it can be a mad house! We went to Ama since Momo is out of commission for a little while. It was a Saturday night, and we decided to order pick up. the line was out the door (there were many people waiting in the street) to get a table, and when I went inside it took 10 minutes to get a host's attention to let them know I was there for pick up, and another 10 minutes for them to actually bring the food. So I was just standing in the little entrance hall (which fille dup with 3 more people waiting for pick up orders) for 20 minutes. Now, they were super busy, I understand. But they should have a better system for handing out the pick up orders because all of our food was ready! So the pick up experience was extremely frustrating, but the food was great! We ordered the Sushi bucket, which came with 2 servings of miso soup as well. We can eat a lot of sushi, so this was the perfect amount for 2 hungry people. I love that it comes with sashimi as well, so you don't feel like you are eating too much rice. The chef specials roles are whatever the special roles for the week are, so you can't know unless you call ahead to ask. The restaurant is small, but cozy, and there is a tiny sushi bar seating area. Expect to wait if you go at a busy time.

    Sashimi
    Chloe A.

    Small, cozy spot with seriously impressive sushi. I was a big fan of Momo Sushi, so I figured I'd love AMA, and I wasn't wrong. The menu is huge, almost overwhelming at first because there are so many options, but honestly, everything we tried was excellent. The sashimi is where AMA really shines. The tuna belly (toro) sashimi was divine, easily some of the best I've had. Hamachi and red snapper were also incredibly fresh, with generous cuts. This is hands down my favorite place for sashimi when it comes to value and portion size. The gyoza deserves its own moment. Melt-in-your-mouth, easily the best gyoza I've ever had. The golden salmon was good, and the rolls were solid across the board. My favorite was the Sweetheart Roll, and the Tibetan Roll was a fun, unique option if you want to try something different. Sex on the Beach was also a good pick. Service was quick and friendly, and the complimentary miso soup was delicious. They also have great lunch deals and monthly specialty rolls, which makes it easy to keep coming back. Parking is easy with free street parking or a nearby ramp. They don't take reservations, so expect a wait during peak hours, but it's worth it. If you love sashimi and want quality fish without the ridiculous price tag, AMA is a must.

    This place has everything you would want from a sushi shop. Great food, fast service and moderately good location. It would be excellent, but parking is a little puzzling.. the Gyoza blew my marathon mind. That level of delicate crisp was artwork. I enjoyed watching the sushi show on TV too

    Vegetable Teriyaki Box
    Jay S.

    So far I have been here twice with two friends and I strived to get an overall feel of their food taste by ordering different items. In my opinion, they have highlights and items that could use further improvement. Depending on what one is looking for, I may recommend this establishment as a solid spot, especially for sashimi. I have ordered a few different sushi and sashimi entrées and my overall impression was that the sashimi was the absolute highlight. Every type of sashimi I had, ranging from salmon to tuna to escolar, was big in pieces and tasty. Each sashimi piece had different types of fish roes on it as well. I also enjoyed the nigiri, which was basically sashimi on top of rice, and even if the sashimi pieces were smaller, it was still delicious. Because of such, I believe that for those looking for good sashimi, this place would be very solid. The specialty rolls and California rolls were not so different from what I have had elsewhere, so I enjoyed having them and that was it. I just wasn't greatly impressed. I also had some of the momos and they were okay, not spectacular, because there wasn't enough seasoning within the vegetable mixtures and the meat mixtures. The momos relied on the red pepper flake chili oil for flavor mainly. I also had the vegetable teriyaki box and it was underwhelming, because the vegetables seemed very sloppily cut and cooked, and also lacked seasoning. The box had some rolls and scallops in it and that was pretty nice to see. In terms of pricing, all the items including the sushi bucket that I had were very economical. It is pretty difficult to find affordable Japanese food within the United States in general, and even know I know this place doesn't just serve Japanese food, their biggest highlights were sashimi and nigiri, so I will recommend this place to those looking for good Japanese food.

    A few things to highlight right away is there prices for the quality of meal. They are super affordable, especially for lunch. I also love the ambience of AMA. It's a small, quaint location that just gives a nice vibe. The staff are inviting and friendly. I was happy with the portions I had for their Beef bento lunch. I'm able to try many things because of the reasonable prices. I would highly recommend giving AMA a try for a lunch time stop or date night.

    It's small. There are no reservations. And the service is incredibly fast. It only seats about 50 people, so big groups beware. That all said, it's worth the wait and the inconvenience of standing in the walkway as waiters trudge through on their way outside to serve the "patio" seating (2 tables) out front. The place is noisy. If that bothers you, you might want to pick an off-time. The food is fresh and tastes excellent. And the service is fast. It's small, loud and crowded. But worth it!

    *Angry Dragon Roll. Love a roll with mango! Easy to remove the crab mix topping if it's not your fave or is too much.
    Deebaa S.

    Sushi was great! I needed a new sushi spot in my life. I love that this place has two-piece tempura options. Broccoli tempura is my fave, highly recommend. Came at the perfect time, 5pm, as we were seated promptly but a line out the door formed within the hour. Finding parking nearby on street is always a challenge in this area but esp at the dinner hour. I recommend going earlier or later if possible. Fast and casual dining. Great service and very reasonable prices. Enjoyed hot sake. Sampled a delicious Japanese citrus ale beer too.

You enter right where you order, so usually you have to go around people in tight quarters. I'd recommend ordering online because there isn't a ton of waiting space for to-go orders. They have a mixed menu of American and asian, so they have something for everyone. I tried the curry udon noodle soup with fried chicken and the Philly roll. The soup was alright! Very strong curry with a slight kick but nothing spicy. I'm not the biggest fan of udon noodles because of the texture but it fit well with the broth. You get a huge portion size as well. The Philly roll was nothing special and the salmon was warm (I like it chilled). Prices are cheap and who doesn't love that! I love their menu and want to come back and try some other things!

The lobby was sizable and inviting with a claw machine we couldnt resist trying while we waiting for a table to free up (It's 2 token per play, $1 a token - the claw is loose on the sensitivity so use some strategy). Once seated, perusing the lunch menu (after ordering the special electric lemonaid) the base selection was typical of other spots but the specialty hot stone Waygu and oysters for 4 (8x oysters, and 2x orders of 4 pieces of Waygu) was a big hit, alongside of the crispy wings, the tasty gyoza, the very garlic house salad, and the delightful crab puff pls Edamame to start. From the Lo Mein for the misses, to the BBQ Eel Fried Rice for my and my oldest, to the specialty YumYum Roll and Spicy Girl Roll, to my youngest's favorite Rainbow Roll and Eel Avocado Roll there was plenty to come back - along some of the other Regular Rolls.

As someone who doesn't eat fish I love a veggie roll, and adding cream cheese is a great option. When ordering the avocado roll it's $1 to add cream cheese, so I would order a Philly no salmon. This was totally fine until one day I'm told I need to start paying $1 to remove the salmon, seems like a crazy thing considering I'm saving them money to NOT include the fish, arguably the most expensive item in the roll. I wouldn't care as much if there was any consistency with when I'm charged and when I'm not. Overall, communication and service could be better. Typically it's pretty slow during lunch M-Th, but when I went on a Friday it was busier, still a great option for lunch if you have an hour.

Staff were really nice, and food came out quickly. They were helpful as it was our first time there. Great vibe inside as well. I thought it'd be a fun place to get a beer. They have a few tap beers including a rice lager. We got Yaki-Shabu beef (spicy jalapeno miso), toro beef (sweet soy tare & miso) and spicy pork. It was all well marinated and overall excellent. One thing I will say is that the spicy food definitely has a kick. I enjoy spice myself and still was feeling it a bit more than usual. The sauce accompaniments were tasty as well.
