Had to edit my previous review after seeing their kitchen. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. DO NOT EAT HERE. You will get food poisoning.

Everything I've tried is top notch. Arctic Sushi hasn't been here very long, but the place is great. The chef has worked in Chicago, New York, and obviously here. Several of the rolls are his own recipes. Many have a fun Alaskan flair. The Reindeer Roll is an interesting experience. Definitely worth a try. The tables inside are all cool handmade wood and have a fun, almost quirky personality to them, definitely working off the log cabin exterior. The atmosphere is quiet but relaxed. It's nice and comfortable for talking to the staff or other people at the bar. It's rarely crowded, the service is great, and everyone is super pleasant to talk to. Prices are all pretty decent time. They have beer, wine, and sake. I've been to most of the sushi places in town, this is definitely at the top of my list. read more

Arctic Sushi - Reindeer sausage on the Reindeer Roll!! So delish! - Japanese Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

Worth a stop. I had a traditional spicy tuna roll. It was very good. The tuna was fresh and perfectly seasoned. The presentation was simple, otherwise I would have raved more. Also ordered a custom udon dish. He added chicken instead of seafood and spiced it up. 10 stars! Oh, also ordered a house salad that had a wonderfully simple mustard dressing. read more

Sushi roll was falling apart and not worth the $20 price tag for something very average

Incredibly bad service and mediocre food. We went with a group of eight and the wait was unbelievably long considering the restaurant was completely empty. We ordered multiple rolls and did not receive one of them until the rest of the group had ate. Anchorage has great sushi restaurants like Sushi Ya and Ronnie's. There simply is no reason to spend your money somewhere where you'll receive awful service and food that will leave you craving good sushi. read more

I've had lunch twice; had sushi, a roll, and chicken teriyaki. The food was very good and normal portions that you would expect. The sole employee (owner?) did quite well at managing the whole process and appropriate considering the times I suspect. He was attentive and friendly. I enjoyed the visits and would certainly expect to return. read more

Employees were the best part of this place. It is near the docks where the cruise ships come in. It is pricey so one must be careful not to go out and order everything. They have specials on the door but not on the menu. The waiter told us they were seasonal soo.... We enjoyed a few rolls and soup. A big party came in with us however we were all treated and served at the same time. As were there before we went home from our cruise, not sure we will get a chance to come back. Great service, good food, check a bit high. read more

Some of the best sushi in town!!!! Absolutely loved their Yukon Roll and Seward Roll. The wait staff was extremely attentive and very quick with all requests. Food came quickly and was so delicious. We will definitely be back for sushi again and again!!! read more

Being a Sunday I didn't have a lot of options for sushi as many of the other stores in town are closed. So the taxi driver took me to the place that he knew. As soon as I got here and looked at the menu I knew it was going to be pricy. With all orders being 14-17 each it seems rather over priced for sushi. The food came out quite quickly and the staff was very friendly. Unfortunately the food itself is just average. Nothing really special. For charging such high prices I was expecting a lot more. I'm sure there are a lot better places to eat at for supper when you are going to end up paying 35-40 each. Swipe left read more

After trying several restaurants downtown after the Yelp event, we finally found a place that we didn't have to wait hours to get a seat. In fact, the restaurant was pretty dead with only one other customer besides us. We didn't have to wait that long for the food. It was freshly cooked. The udon that I ordered was ok. The only complaint that I had was that the vegetables were pretty basic and limited. I understand that you don't get a lot of variety when it comes to edibles greens from the Mother Earth here in Alaska and the rent was probably crazy high since the restaurant was downtown. Nonetheless, it's a bit disappointing when you paid so much and only get the regular cheap veggies (carrots, cabbages, zucchini...) The owner was super nice though. The decoration that he put into making his sushi was something to be admired. read more

It was great! It's a small, intimate seating area and it was pretty quiet and relaxing for me. I got both a tuna roll and salmon roll - both were very good but that salmon roll was especially great (with a little lemon, too). Great fish! read more

The rolls and the soup were very good. Fast service though the atmosphere was a little too quiet for my liking, made us feel a bit awkward for such a small place. read more

I have had here twice now. And both were just bad. First time I just ordered the Teriyaki Halibut Bento, the halibut was so over cooked and dry it was unappetizing. On top of getting fried calamari! That's the kicker. Not only was it raw and soaked in grease, there was still the spine in the rings. That alone could slice your throat open on the inside. Second time, I ordered since it was one of the few places open, bug mistake. I tried to order a roll, miso soup and gyoza. I didn't get any of those. Instead was two sloppily and greasy fried rolls, some mediocre fried rice, dumpling soup that had no seasoning in the dumplings and the broth tasting like dish water and fried out of date Oreos. I would rather starve than order from here again. read more

I walked in to an open table and immediately found my arms sticking to it when I rested them on it. I then looked around and saw a windowsill covered in dirt and hair right next to me. And that was before I even opened the menu. $17 for vegetable fried rice?! $16 for a California roll?! The prices were so steep I actually started laughing. How in the hell this place is still open with it's outrageous prices and horrid service and atmosphere I have no idea. read more

Excellent family business that is well price and has delicious sushi! There wasn't a line either time that I went. I'd highly recommend Arctic Sushi to anyone that enjoys sushi. They have a large diverse menu. read more

Went in for dine in with five guests we were not told there would be 20% automatic gratuity charged until the end... I usually leave 20% if not more but upon receiving the bill for three rolls and a tea it was $127 when I asked why she said it was gratuity but it still did not match up with the price of the rolls.. she then came back with $88 bill. Definitely not worth the price for quality of food. read more

Great food. Superb customer service. I occasionally visit ANC for business. Will make it a point to make this one of my primary restaurants. PLG read more

Good service, beer, and sushi. What else could you need? Good sake too. Get the Kodiak roll and stay warm.

Fresh, amazing fish! Good, legit sushi rice. Quality. Quality. Quality. Don't miss this spot!

I came in here after paper filing at the courthouse across the street. I ordered the sashimi bento and was excited about the experience since the interior was really comforting and the cook was really nice. I wasn't too excited with what I received. I didn't like the tempura because it was really thick and bready, and didn't even come with shrimp like all the other places I've been to. The sauce that it came with had too much vinegar and wasn't appetizing to dip into. The fish was okay but small, but I thought the salmon was a bit off on color, though it didn't taste bad. All in all it wasn't worth the $20. I don't think I will come again. I like my go-tos and this place didn't make the cut. read more

We ordered Artic Sushi, so my review is only based on the food. We ordered from GrubHub and the food was over priced and mediocre. My friend ordered chicken ramen, the ramen was soggy with dry meat. Considering it was in broth, the fact that the chicken was dry made no sense. The reindeer sausage was overly greasy amd the salmon teriyaki was an embarrassment; there were three slivers of salmon that were overcooked and disgusting. We live in Alaska preparing salmon properly should be a requirement especially for $17 a plate. The sushi itself was ok but again severely over priced due to the quality and also averaged about $18 a roll for 6 pieces. read more

Not impressed at all. My order was wrong, had so much sauce on it I could taste the sushi and the teriyaki chicken tasted horrible.

Dose't look like much when you walk in but we were dying of hunger so we popped in.And all of us ate there the service was quick and the food was AMAZING!Go check it out! read more

I have yet to try the ramen here, but every sushi roll I've had has been good. They're downtown which means they're easy for me to get to during a quick lunch. The service is good enough and wait times are fairly speedy, depending on what you order. Today, I was feeling like some soup so I got their dumpling noodle. It was fine. Nothing special. I probably wouldn't order it again but it worked. Doesn't give me super-high expectations for their ramen but who knows. I also had the crunch roll today and it was as good as any other crunch roll I've had around town. I don't think the prices are unreasonable for a little in-and-out lunch spot. The seating area always seems clean and well-kept. This isn't my first choice for lunch but it does add some variety to a corner mostly dominated by sandwiches, wraps, pizzas and burritos. read more

All the bad reviews surprise me. I came here one afternoon in August as a last minute decision, with a small group of friends. We all eat plenty of sushi here in LA, and even have in Japan. Was it the best sushi of my life? No. Was it worth a 2-star review? Definitely not. The restaurant was quiet, not too busy, clean, well lit from all the windows. We had a variety of sushi (including White King Salmon!) and beers. Service was fine. Our waiter was young, but attentive. They gladly let us split our check multiple ways. I don't know when I'll ever be in Anchorage again, but I'd gladly return here. read more

I don't recommend eating here. Came with my husband because we saw a deal on Groupon. The food was not good at all, what we wanted to drink was never asked so I asked for water and it came a little while after the food. Warm water that is. Had to ask for utensils because when the food came we didn't have that either. Food seemed like it was put in a microwave to heat up. Once we went to pay with the groupon he said no it didn't work we needed to bring 2 other people with us for it to work.... not what it said on the Groupon at all... he said: So next time come back and but another purchase of Groupon. Seriously! That's the first and last time for us. read more

Had a great time at sushi bar with chef Kim. Very frendly and the food was great at an affortable price! Will definitely stop by next time in town. read more

I ordered through third party delivery since it was the fastest option, and the cheapest in terms of service fees. It did arrive quickly, a little faster than they estimate. But it wasn't anything to write home about. I'm not really sure if I would try it again but chances are not unless I'm in the same situation- stuck at my second job without any time to grab food in between. I got the volcano roll, the spice level was pretty good, avocado could only be found on the last two pieces, the crab was (of course) imitation and had an extremely fishy taste. The roll itself was a decent size but still not very filling. The most disappointing part was the fact they forgot chopsticks. I have no utensils available and hoped I could use my hands. When I opened the box it was completely drowning in sauce that wasn't mentioned on the menu. I don't mean a normal amount like most places have drizzled across the top, I mean it looked like the container exploded and they decided to just leave it. I don't know if it was because of the sauce or poor sushi making in general but the rice couldn't hold its form for anything- it kept falling apart with even the lightest touch. I'm glad I had a discount so I didn't have to waste so much money on it. At least I have some food to hold me over for the next 4 hours. read more

Chicken fried rice was less than thrilling. Yukon roll was pretty good but spice was overbearing & took away from the overall flavor.

Tried the Dutch harbor roll, and Alyeska roll, quite frankly, it's one of the best sushi places in Anchorage. read more

We had a weird experience... Idk why some people reviewed as the best sushi in town (?)... Food was greasy and small portions. Price's not worth and the staff is family (not very professional) PLUS: water tastes HORRIBLE (I couldn't drink it at all) We have been to some other sushi places around town (Jimmy's, Ronnie 2, Sushi Ya) and they all beat this experience! read more

Gyoza, Spicy Tuna Roll, Ketchikan Roll and Sake Sashimi and every thing was delicious. I and the owner Mr Kim were the only ones in the place Sunday afternoon until some help arrived 10 minutes before I left. I do believe with many of the previous posts that the prices are a little high. Been here for a week and continue to see many Japanese pilots at hotel and surprised none were at Arctic Sushi. So my star ratings are food = 5, service = 3, and prices = 3. read more

Haven't had their sushi but their ramen was totally inedible. The noodles must have been those instant kind that suck up all the fluid in nothing flat. They were mushy and gross. There wasn't much else to be had so I chucked it :( Tempura tasted pretty good but the portions are tiny. Skimpiest portions I've ever seen :( Dud. Next. read more

This place has a great location. Unfortunately, once Teriyaki Box left it, it changed so many times it could give you whip lash. This latest reincarnation as Arctic Sushi seems to be just okay. It could be a lot better. I got the chicken Bimbimbap and my friend got a roll. There were pretty much no vegetables except lettuce on my dish. So a "bimbimbap" that is only rice, chicken, and lettuce (really! Lettuce!?) and the bimbimbap sauce, it was highly disappointing. My friend got her roll, which she liked, but said that it seemed a bit rice heavy. The prices were high for what we received. Service was friendly but uncoordinated. If they really work out the menu and level out the prices, I could see this place staying. Otherwise, I will be looking to see what opens up next here. read more

Service: Horrible. Got drinks right away. Then 15 minutes to get our order taken. And there was only 3 tables occupied. Too bad 1 table was the waitresses boyfriend. And she walked our rolls to us while chomping on food. She spent more time eating with him than she did caring about the people that would be tipping her. Rolls: Good flavor, but put together pretty loosely. Had to use my hands to eat since they wouldn't stay together. Verdict: Might come back if I get dragged, but not willingly. read more

Very expensive prices for small portions. Also the fish is described as very fresh, however didn't seem as fresh as advertised.

The service is great. The food is good. Love the spicy chicken ramen! It's my favorite.

Passed by here and decided to give it a try since we were in a rush - we ordered 3 bento boxes at $17.95 each ... And it was not good at all . Also ordered one seafood udon , the seafood they put in that bowl was not fresh so it had a weird smell and tasted like rubber. Our beef teriyaki had no teriyaki taste whatsoever . Chicken teriyaki was ok but chewy . Salmon teriyaki was not fresh . Their miso soup was super bland. Horrible lunch and we paid over $80 for it . Certainly we will never come back read more

Every so often I order DoorDash from them. The meals with chicken are dry and tough. Wished they gave more sauce on the chicken teriyaki so it isn't as dry. The sushi is good for the price. Not so much of a fan of the fried rice. read more
