Ok, so full disclosure, I checked in here on accident when I was at another location and no way to fix it, so I came here to eat a second lunch! I had been to the old location and had been wanting to check out the new location. It's a similar format as the old spot but not as bright and airy. A walkway directs you to the ordering counter. The menu is at the end on the side wall. I stood for a bit and reviewed the menu with no one around. A guy came from the back and apologized but I hadn't made my decision yet so he disappeared again. When I was ready, I had to wait for someone to come up from the back again. A young woman waited on me; she was fine but not real enthused which in turn made me less than enthused about eating here. The menu listed the ingredients that you could get in a burrito, a bowl, a salad, or wonton chip nachos. I went for the OG Fire with spicy salmon in nacho form. Honestly, if I was rating the food only it would have been a solid 4, maybe a 5 but the disinterested staff and dark atmosphere pulled it down to the 3. The nachos were great, the wonton chips are thin and crispy but not greasy, the salmon tasty with the sauce, great. Getting a bite with the wonton, the salmon, the guac, a cucumber, and a piece of jalapeno, so good. The perfect bite over and over.

I know I have already reviewed BLK Mkt Eats, but I can never get over how delicious it is each time I visit! I feel compelled to write another review. I hadn't been since they moved from their SLU location (shame on me), but the new(ish) Maplewood spot is great. I got my usual, which is the OG Fire nachos with spicy tuna. As usual, it was insanely fresh and has so many layered flavors with super crunchy wonton chips. I can't leave without ordering a side of shrimp tempura which is crazy crunchy and flavorful. I ate every last bite and don't regret it at all. BLK Mkt Eats is one of those STL staples for me.

My partner is a big sushi fan, so we decided to give Blk Mkt Eats a try for lunch. It wasn't too busy on a Saturday at lunchtime, and we watched our order get prepared right at the counter. The restaurant is nice and clean with lots of seating. My partner got the OG Fire sushi burrito and was very happy with it. I'm not much of a sushi guy myself so I ended up ordering the Seoul Delicious rice bowl. I wish it had a bit more chicken, and I really don't care for cold rice, but I enjoyed the rest of the ingredients. Might have to try their wonton chip nachos next time.

Such delicious food and so unique!! The staff was friendly. The place was clean and while music was playing it wasn't overwhelming. I also liked that you could make adjustments to the order.

Tiger Style Nachos with Salmon
Dejah M.

One of my favorite places in STL! I really do miss them over by the SLU area but I will still come nonetheless because the food is so good! I love getting the Tiger Style with Salmon and have been getting it with the wonton nachos. Lately I've been ordering it with rice to keep my fingers cleaner lol but I miss my nachos so much. Tiger Style- spicy salmon, shrimp tempura, avocado, english cucumber, tempura crunch, crispy shallots, fresh jalapeños, og fire sauce & eel sauce OG Fire- spicy salmon, avocado, English cucumbers, masago, crispy shallots, tempura crunch, sesame seeds, fresh jalapeños, og fire sauce The tiger style has the shrimp tempura which brings it up an additional $2. I add eel sauce when I order the OG Fire. I add the spicy crab salad to both when I order either. The ponzu butter sauce is sooo good. Get some on the side. Service is fast and amazing and I wish more people ate inside! I don't see too many people inside. Maybe comfier seats or more noticeable storefront? Lastly, I love the sushi burritos too! It's in a previous review!

Man, I really love this place. If I still lived in Saint Louis, I'd probably get myself a mid day lunch treat several times a month here. We both had the tigerstyle. The fish was super fresh--all the ingredients were very fresh. I think I might just be getting older or something, but I would say maybe things were just a bit too salty (the unagi sauce). Service was quick and friendly. The restaurant ambiance is very "trendy" and from their older place down in the cortex, there is a lot more space to dine in, though we took our order to go.

Open kitchen concept - you can see them making the burritos

Overall, a wonderful spot in Maplewood for a very unique take on sushi! WAIT TIME: We came in for lunch on a Saturday at 2pm and there were only two person in line in front of us. It moved pretty quickly. FOOD: I ordered the Pineapple Express sushi burrito with tuna and my partner got the Tiger Style sushi burrito with spicy tuna. Both were tasty; the pineapple was on the sweeter side, I recommend the Tiger style one more! We thought it was such a fun take on sushi, to make them into a burrito instead. They also offered options such as wonton chips or poke bowls, which I'll have to come back to try! SERVICE: Counter ordering, they make it right in front of you. Everyone was very smiley and greeted you warmly. AMBIANCE: It's a good space for grab and go food. We sat down and ate quickly, not a lot of seating options but just enough to be able to find a spot and eat before you have to run! PRICE: The burritos were $14 and $16 respectively. Comparable priced to getting sushi or poke, so I feel like that's reasonable!

I don't know why I waited to long to try Blk Mkt Eats! The food is so good. I would rather eat here than traditional sushi just about any day of the week. I got the Tiger Roll and swapped out the Ahi Tuna or Salmon for the spicy crab - incredible switch! Everyone working was super kind and accommodating with both the swap and when I asked for the shrimp tails to be cut off. I was also excited that they had POG (Passion Fruit, Orange, and Guava) juice. We decided to dine in, which there is plenty of room for in their dining area filled with tables and chairs. I also noticed that they have a pretty decent take out business, as well. I truly cannot recommend enough and hope you give it a shot!

Ordered for pickup, they had my ready when I arrived and staff was very nice. I love sushi and couldn't wait to give this a try. It did not disappoint, pretty big wrap too! If you like sushi you have to try one! Absolutely would order again.

OG fire with salmon burrito
Tina W.

OG fire with spicy salmon burrito is amazing. The fish is so fresh and the tempura adds a nice crunch to the burrito. I've had the spicy tuna before as well and it was excellent too. The staff is super nice and helpful. The inside is clean and organized. Would highly recommend checking this place out if you like sushi. It's definitely a unique take but I love it!

Where's the meat???

The best sushi burrito in the city. Don't sleep on the tofu nugs, but get both sauces! The only downfall is that there is only one!

Eassily one of my favorite sushi spots in STL. The sashimi here is some of the freshest I've had in…read morethe saint louis. consistently clean and high quality, and the prices are very reasonable for what you get. The Caliente roll was really good and full of flavor. The service made the experience even better. The server was attentive, friendly, and quick without feeling rushed. The ambience is relaxed and comfortable, making it a great spot to actually enjoy your meal. For the price and quality, this place really stands out. Definitely a go-to for sushi in STL.

Stopped in for takeout and was promptly met with, "how many"?…read more Taken aback I replied, "just myself, but this will be taken away". Then she asked if I needed a menu....sigh... While I stood at the bar to peruse the lengthy menu the lady walked near me several times in haste with a notepad prompting my order. It wasn't busy but I felt rushed. I placed the order and watched the order be prepared within a few minutes. When the lady brought the receipt I noticed 15% gratuity was added. Appalling, especially since I wasn't offered water, a seat while I waited, nor was I greeted with a hello, a smile or thanked for coming in. Maybe the automatic gratuity is the very reason for the lack of hospitality here. The lack of hostility is the very reason I will never return. P.S. the sushi was decent. There are 100 alternatives I'd rather frequent for a pleasant experience. ~Christy

We've been to Sado a couple times, and it never dissapoints. I can honestly say it's the best Sushi…read morein St. Louis, and in my opinion, some of the best Sushi in the U.S. My husband and I have been to Japan twice and the quality is up there right next to what we get in Japan. The worst part is deciding what you want. This last time we went with the omekase, let our waitress choose, and it was perfect. She picked things we never would have thought about, yet everything was SO good. She also did a great job of explaining every course/her thoughts on it/what we should expect. It was such a great experience. The cocktails are always fantastic, no notes. Seriously, the best splurge meal in the city. SO SO good.

You will only leave hungry if you hate fish. We left,…read moreuncomfortably full. Comparing Sado to Indo is not apples to apples, which my partner was trying to do. We ordered a few sashimi and we expected them to be a little fancier. That was on us. The server as with Indo, above and beyond nice, I think they are accustomed to a lot of questions. Ours was amazing, she said "we don't fork shame here" I fork shame, but she refused. Good for her! I also ordered a cocktail. I would arrive to Sado just for this cocktail, it had a coconut pillow top, that was reminiscent of a marshmallow. Delightful compliment to my savory dinner. I was very surprised at the size of Sado on the inside, we made a turn into the seating then a second turn deeper into seating. I did not get to check out the bathrooms, which disappointed me, but the ambiance was very dark and romantic, also unexpected, there were several tables of friend groups.

Amazing dinner experience!! The atmosphere was intimate, especially when we were their only guests…read morewhen we dined here. The waiter was warm and knowledgeable, telling us stories and background on the food and beverage we had. His father is the chef and his mom does all the flower arrangements at the restaurant. It's beautifully decorated and sophisticated. There were two of us and we went with the 4-course $100 Omakase, which had 2 options and we did one of each: Omakase Nigiri and Chirashi. The food here was delicious and I can't remember all the items I had, but it started with a Tsukidashi tasting followed by a soup. Between the two options, I would opt for Omakase Nigiri next time. The wine and sake pairing was terrific, which introduced us to so many new beverages. Dessert is a must, especially at $5. The matcha mousse was airy and fantastic. You can dine by reservation only, and it's easy to make reservations on Tock, but need to plan ahead. .|\---/| | @_@ | ..\_^_/..2026

This was a very unique experience. It's a very small space, so the service was excellent. Nobu's…read moreson, George, gave us little origin stories of the fish/dishes which was nice. They were also out of the wine I wanted, so they gave me a pour of something else for free which was really kind. It's also very cute inside. The food was very high quality. The fish tasted fresh. The dishes were really unique and had flavor combos that surprised me (Japanese potato with beet stem and peppercorn, cucumber with cooked seaweed). A couple things to note: they played no music so it was very quiet inside, they're fairly heavy handed with wasabi, and it's quite expensive. Overall, a good STL experience with the cutest little fam running it.
