I will have to go back to try the sushi instead of the rolls, but overall my first time it was good. I came with my daughters and they only like California rolls. They demolished two California rolls. I tried a ninja roll (spicy tuna inside, eel sauce outside) with some black tobiko on top. It was good but not amazing. Service was friendly and attentive. I like there is a sushi place in Sammamish that is close if I'm craving sushi. read more

if you're looking for good service and great food, this is the place. I had limited time to grab food and I was so happy they were able to seat me right away. gentleman took my order almost immediately and within minutes I had my order. I ordered the kamikaze and it was delicious. can't wait to come back and try their other sushi options. read more

Big Fish Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Sammamish, Washington

Making sure to update this place back to its glory standing after a plunge they took a couple of years ago. They have either changed their chef or updated quality control, and sloppy mess I mentioned in my previous review is gone. I consistently order from them about once a week a combination of very basic set of sushi rolls my kid is addicted to and a variety of fancy rolls for adults in the house. The quality has been consistently great, fish of a good quality (fish professionals in this family, so we don't mess around!) and quality arrangement in the form of sushi rolls. I feel comfortable reinstating my recommendation regarding quality and variety of meals Big Fish Sushi now supplies! read more

After having such a consistently positive experience at the Bothell location, we decided to try their sister store here in Sammamish. I'm happy to report that the high standards definitely carry over! We ordered the Big Fish Boat, and it was the exact same high quality that I've experienced in Bothell. The sashimi and sushi pieces were HUGE and incredibly fresh. While the boat is over $100, it is absolutely worth the price for the quality and presentation you receive. I've paid more elsewhere for average sushi, but this was top tier. What really stood out was the service. Even though there was only one server working the floor, she was incredible. Her service was optimal; she was attentive, quick, and always ensured our tea was topped off. Since we were a party of 4, she even complimented us with an extra miso soup, which was such a thoughtful touch. It's great to have a reliable, high-quality sushi option on the Plateau with such a welcoming staff. If you're a fan of the Bothell location, you'll be very happy here. We will return to dine at this location when we are in the area. read more

Big Fish Sushi - Big fish sushi boat. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Sammamish, Washington

A gem of a sushi restaurant nestled on the Sammamish Plateau. Great menu selections. Their steak teriyaki is excellent. We like the hamachi Kama. If you order it, be sure to ask for the sauce on the side otherwise you will get a bunch of unagi sauce on top of it. Why they decide to put unagi sauce on it? I have no clue. So do yourself a favor and order the sauce on the side. Service is always quick and friendly. Restaurant is mostly full most days. Small and intimate restaurant. Clean restrooms. Highly recommend. read more

Had an amazing experience from start to finish. Service was excellent. Sushi was delicious. Spicy Avocado Roll and Paradise Roll. 10/10

Big Fish is our go-to sushi restaurant in the Sammamish plateau. It is close by, well-priced, properly staffed and the food is outstanding. We dine there probably 2x per month because it is so good. We typically order the Sushi for 2 which has nigiri and sashimi pieces along with two rolls: tuna and a premium one (Dragon?). Extra ginger request is met heartily. Minor customization (no shellfish) well accommodated. This tends to have standard selections, and the a la carte selections are numerous if you wish for more exotic choices. I round it off with the hot sake. There is also a 'frequent flier' program which gives a slight discount back from prior points earned. I also rarely give out 5 stars: I reserve such rating for 'walk on water' type experiences. The fact that BF returns high levels every time achieves this coveted score. read more

Wide variety of selection, fresh. I have yet to order something I didn't like. They are quick with to go orders

Service was nice, and quick. Not my favorite sushi (sashimi/ nigiri/ rolls), but I'm also picky about fish. The restaurant was busy and it was well past the dinner hour, so I'm assuming it's a local favorite. read more

Went for lunch. The food was fast and good. They were not consistent in how spicy their spicy tuna or salmon were between my wife and I. I loved the spice, but it was only on one of my spicy rolls. If they asked how much spice I wanted and could hit that target it would be a 5 from me. Miso soup was good. read more

Went here recently and absolutely loved it! I came with my family and we all ordered sushi. The staff brought it in a very aesthetic boat! The actual taste was very fresh, and I enjoyed the various spicy and umami tastes. The crunch roll was really fun, got some extra texture! read more

Grandson and I had a great lunch here. Very clean with fresh tasting fish, we both loved the sushi. If you're on the plateau this is the place for Japanese food. Try it you'll like it read more

Absolute gem! There presentation is so beautiful crafted for VERY reasonably priced rolls. I genuinely love this place!

Finally! A sushi spot in Sammamish with specialty rolls, bento boxes, ramen and more. From the looks of it, Big Fish is off to a promising start since opening a few months ago. We've visited a few times already and always see takeout bags piled on the counter waiting for pickup. Recently, we ordered from their lunch specials menu which offer a variety of sushi and kitchen options at very reasonable prices. However, I'm most impressed by their selection of 30 specialty rolls, many of which are not only creative, but also artistic. I've tried three of them so far which I thought deserved a quick spotlight! + Snow White Roll ($13.95): Crab salad and tempura shrimp inside, topped with albacore, black tobiko, avocado and eel sauce. Between the fresh crab, crunchy and meaty tempura, smooth avocado and slightly sweet eel sauce to finish it off, this was a cohesive and satisfying roll. + Dream Salmon Roll ($12.95): A California Roll topped with seared salmon and spicy mayo. The salmon was nicely seared and the cucumber and crab inside tasted very clean. While I enjoyed this one overall, I would have preferred a lighter drizzle of spicy mayo. The sauce was smothered on top of the salmon and somewhat overpowered the other ingredients. + Scorpion Roll ($11.95): Cucumber and shrimp tempura inside topped with fresh shrimp and avocado, spicy mayo and eel sauce. Anyone who loves shrimp will find this delicious! Others in my group ordered the Spider Roll, Philly Roll and Spicy Tuna roll, which were tasty as well. We tried their dinner bentos on another occasion, which included gyoza, tempura, California Roll, rice and soup alongside whichever main you choose. We really appreciate the variety included within each bento, but we unfortunately do not recommend their teriyaki. The steak had a lot of fat and the sauce was more of a gravy with a heavy onion taste, while the chicken did not have that grilled flavor we hoped for. On the other hand, their katsu, tempura and chicken karaage were perfectly crisp and enhanced with a dip in their respective sauces. The staff even exceeded our expectations by poking holes in the takeout boxes of all the fried items to prevent condensation. Thanks to this, our katsu and tempura still had a nice crunch to them by the time we got home. In general, the staff is friendly and take great care in packing up our food. We always phone in our orders and appreciate how they read it back to us to ensure everything is correct. It's the little things that make all the difference. See you soon, Big Fish! read more

This is a low key neighbor establishment with average ambiance and decent food. My daughter and I were seated promptly and we ordered what the waiter said was popular menu items. The sushi was good but it is not a place I would drive a long distance for. Good! Just not outstanding. read more

Big Fish Sushi - a plate of food on a table - Sushi Bars Near Me - Sammamish, Washington

Big Fish Sushi is a sushi restaurant in Sammamish. It is at the location Lanponi Thai restaurant used to be. We've been here few times. The sushi here is always fresh and tasty. We usually order their Bento box, ramen, appetizers and rolls. Our order this last visit was a Sashimi appetizer my son loved. We got our usual California roll, spicy crab roll and rainbow roll. This time we ordered the spicy girl roll which as warm and crunchy that we thought was fantastic. We also got the vegetable and shrimp tempura that came with miso soup, crunchy salad and a small rice bowl. Overall it was a good dinner. Will come again. read more

My friend and I had a date night here last night; I'm really glad I finally checked out the restaurant after driving past it many times. We experienced really attentive and friendly service, and I liked the ambiance and easy parking. Everything tasted fresh and was beautifully prepared. My friend arrived late, so the staff brought an extra bowl of hot Miso so he didn't have to eat the cold soup. However, the Miso was so good that he ate both bowls happily! Even for a Saturday night, it wasn't too crowded-- a mellow mix of families and couples. I particularly enjoyed the spicier rolls. I noted that there are lunch specials and ramen available as well. Can't wait to come back! read more

A really good option for takeout. I'm impressed with their choice of rolls, normally go for the Osaka roll. Kids like the rainbow roll and one with mango. Very easy to order thru their website. read more

Big Fish Sushi as multiple locations in the greater Seattle area, this one is located within a strip mall in Sammamish. Walked in on Sunday afternoon, was greeted and quickly seated at one of their nice roomy booth seats, plenty of windows for views outside, the table setting display was a nice addition with reusable chopsticks, not something you come across everyday. Service was friendly and helpful throughout the meal. Sorry I only took the one picture of only a small portion of the menu, as they have a lot of sashimi and sushi rolls to choose from, definitely looking forward to returning to try more. Kept it simple this time, edamame and gyoza appetizers, both fresh and tasty, cooked just right. The two rolls I ordered, California roll and eel/avocado roll were both very fresh, avocado just the right ripeness, fresh cucumber and eel, crab mixture was good and fresh. My only complaint was the rolls could have been more compressed, as they too easily fell apart when picking up with chopsticks. The ginger was very fresh and the wasabi was mild. They also have a bar area we're you can watch them preparing the rolls and the fish is in a refrigerated display case. Two big screens to watch sports, and a great choice of Japanese beers, and a few locals. A overall good solid sushi experience, great service and definitely looking forward to trying again soon. SYOY! Cheers! read more

We've been going here for a couple of years and have always enjoyed our food and the experience dining here!

My opinion good sushi, good price. Service is good. Overall I will come back to this place eat sushi. read more

Decent food, poor service. We came here for my son's birthday dinner of choice. The server ignored us after seating. We beat the dinner rush so the place was not even full. Finally, he came back to tell us to just order through the QR code on the table and left again. After I ordered AND paid, he came back with water, which he did refill occasionally through dinner. read more

This was our 1st time to dine in at this location since Lanpoini Thai moved out. I was absolutely pleased with all aspects of the restaurant. The menu is much broader than I expected (photos to follow), the service was great, presentation of the dishes was all unique and beautiful. We will definitely be going back again. Also, for a Sammamish Plateau sushi restaurant, I felt the prices are really good for the quality of the food. read more

We tried the items from this place for a public art show. I didn't try all the items but the rolls I got were alright. I would come to try it but the recent reviews were so-so? read more

I would say it is HARD to find good sushi on the eastside. I'm not a big fan of chain sushi restaurants but this place definitely exceeded my expectations. We started with an order of tako yaki which was warm, soft and delicious. The seared salmon salad's dressing was surprisingly spicy which gave it a nice kick but other than that tasted like any other salad I've had in my life. We ordered two specialty rolls, Kiss of Fire and the Volcano Roll. I have to say the Volcano Roll was one of the better tasting dishes I've had in a long time. It was melt in your mouth delicious and I could probably have eaten another roll by myself. I also ordered a mackerel nigiri which was really really good. Service was attentive, they came with refills for tea and we never waited long for anything. You can conveniently pay online after ordering through a QR code they provided. It was a quiet ambiance which I enjoyed so much better than Orenji. Overall, I would definitely come back to try more dishes from their extensive menu. read more

Recommend using table QR code to order. Rated Excellent by health safety inspectors. Staff has a bit to learn about acknowledging guests as they come in the door. Host needed on Friday dinner rush. read more

I would give this restaurant zero stars if I was able. After a terrible experience dining in, in which there were incredible wait times for everything, incorrect orders brought to our table, and literally did not receive part of our order, I vowed to not eat here again. Well, fast forward two months... And my wife is in mood for sushi, so, I thought...ok, one more chance. I placed an order online, with a pickup time of 20 minutes. I arrived at the restaurant 25 minutes after I placed the order and was told that it's going to be another 10-15 minutes because they ran out of rice, but, they just started making more. So, as I stand outside, waiting for my order, I have to wonder how it is that a restaurant with this horrible level of operational acumen could possibly stay in business. This is definitely the last time. Added:. Came back in at 15 minutes and was told it's almost done. No apologies, no attempt to keep me as a customer, nothing. read more

It is definitely not an authentic Japanese sushi restaurant for sure. I think the service was very slow. The sushi chef seems to have been very interested in the college football game. I ordered chirashi without red tuna and knowing many restaurant replaces with white fish which is the cheapest to replace with. I asked them not to put all with the white fish either. Then the waitress came back to upcharge me with 5 dollars to 21.95 dollars chirashk bowl already..... vegetable tempura batter was tasteless. Shumai appetizer was frozen food like. Chirashi is definitely not chirashi that I know of. Spider roll was dipped down into.this brown sauce. It was one of the so called Japanese food I ever had. I tried to cancel the sushi but they said it was too late. I could not finish half of the food at all. Then the waitress kept asking me why I didn't like it and why.... as soon as I told them,, they don't have to deduct anything, she walked away.. As much as I would like to support the local, I will never come back here again. All was terrible experience. They also do not take American express just for your info. read more

Server: 4 stars friendly and fast! Bartender: 4 stars great drinks! Now to the food.. unfortunately a very generous 3 stars spinach and artichoke dip was tasty. When it came to the paella though absolute disaster of a meal. Reminded us of and TV dinner steamed bag meal.. asparagus tasted frozen, bell pepper as well frozen not fresh. The only thing that tasted fresh was the mussels (I hope) and sausage..Just a weak bland attempt to paella. 1 app 1 entrée 1 salad 2 glasses of wine 2 cocktails right around 100$ for 2 ppl w/o tip on happy hour, little high but not bad. We will give this place another try but will avoid the paella. read more

So glad this took the place of the Thai place instead of another pizza restaurant. We were really sad when Lanponi left, but then just as excited to see it being replaced with a Sushi place! Big Fish Sushi ticks all the boxes. The sushi is fresh and well made, and they have a lot of other choices on their menu including a decent bowl of ramen. Udon too. We've been here so many times since it opened. The location couldn't be better when you're working from home and need a good lunch. read more

It is unfortunate I have to leave a negative review; however, after calling five times (they didn't pick up) to make a change to my door dash order, I was told they would not make the change and to just cancel. The irony is, when I've called before, they say to do it online even though they have "turned off" that option. I was making a change to a chefs choice option due to shellfish allergies. It is unfortunate they are not more flexible with a regular (now formerly) customer. Oh well... read more
