    Tuna nigiri left spicy scallop Candy cane pink lady and far right Wesley chapel roll
    Kent K.

    Always Amazing food! Must try if you're in Wesley chapel highly recommend. Fresh and amazing staff.

    Bonsai has hands-down the best sushi in Wesley Chapel and north of Tampa. I have been coming to Bonsai since high school and still love its charm and food. However, it could use a slight revamp or remodel since it has looked the same since day one. Due to its small size, the restaurant can get busy on the weekends. However, the service is good, and the food always arrives promptly. The best part about this place is the food. I have never had a bad meal here, and I often bring friends who love sushi. For a long time, my favorite roll has been the volcano roll; I adore the combination of flavors and crab all in one bite, especially when dipped in eel sauce! Their tempura options are fantastic, and you can't go wrong with anything on their menu.

    A beautiful small family sushi restaurant Very nice wait staff Beautiful presentation on the sushi. I eat at many sushi restaurants and love to find gems to enjoy. Also had the chicken fried rice and was very delicious!!!

    Bonsai Sushi has made it to the top of our list for best sushi in Wesley chapel. Hands down. The service is amazing every time. We love sitting at the sushi bar and watching the guys make the rolls. They're SO skilled and FAST. So fun to watch. The plain sushi (fish and rice) is our go to. The fish is always fresh and they do not skip on the fish. The restaurant is always clean. It's not a big restaurant but I'd say wait times (at least for us) has never been more than 5-10 minutes.

    Came to try some sushi because my sister and I were in Tampa for the Ed Sheeran concert. That exact weekend, it was also my sister's friend's birthday, and this is what she wanted. Walking in, there was only 1 couple eating, and the ambience was pretty dark. I wish it was a bit brighter but maybe that's what they were going for. We were seated in a booth. They have menus but when you are ordering sushi, you order off a piece of paper like if you were at a DimSum restaurant. They definitely operate differently from other places. My sister's friend has ordered their Krab Rangoon before and said that it was unique. I have to say, it is not like all the other krab rangoons that you have tried. The imitation krab meat and cream cheese was stuffed between 2 perilla leaves and lightly fried in a batter covered in eel sauce. It was pretty good but I wish they were wontons. The sushi was just subpar, I was not wowed. I definitely have had better from other places.

    Always a solid choice when you are craving sushi ! Fresh, delicious, fast and service is very nice !!!

    Sake Sushi (Salmon) and pink lady roll
    Jeremy C.

    Been here a few times now and each time am pleasantly surprised by the quality. The fish was extremely fresh (Friday night). I preferred the tuna and my wife preferred the salmon. The ginger sauce the pink lady roll came with was good too, but don't go crazy with it because it can be very overpowering. Also, the wasabi is very powerful here which I very much appreciate. I'll be back more after this past evening.

I ordered a vegetable tempura, which came with onion, broccoli, mushroom, sweet potato, and zucchini. Very good! Lightly breaded and fresh! For my sushi I ordered the Snow Crab roll and the Wesley Chapel 2.0 roll. The Snow Crab roll was exactly as it sounds, snow crab. It was exactly what I wanted! The Wesley Chapel 2.0 roll is deep fried with cream cheese, salmon, white fish, and avocado topped with eel sauce, spicy mayo, scallions, and masago. Very good! Excellent flavor and fresh ingredients! For dessert, I picked this delicious melon popsicle (not pictured). Loved this! It tasted like melon and was perfectly creamy! Would definitely recommend and come back!

They brought out some items that looked like pellets, but when they poured water over them it ended up expanding into hand towels with the water. It was a nice touch. We were somewhat hungry so we ended up ordering Soy Butter Glazed Baked Salmon with the ginger salad. Basically greens and tomatoes and carrots but the dressing was quite flavorful with ginger. The salmon was good, nicely presented with some bok choy, green onions, mushrooms, rice, teriyaki sauce and sesame seeds. It was a bit overcooked in my opinion (they said medium rare for cooking temp, but it was more like medium or medium well). My husband and I were both craving fish, so that satisfied our cravings, but the texture and the temperature are what got to us. My brother opted for the tuna Sashimi (roughly 3 pieces), chicken teriyaki, rice, zucchini, bell pepper, and onions. It was cooked as expected. The atmosphere was nice and inviting, with a clear view of the sushi chefs. We were also close to the bar (featuring a nice selection of different types of spirits). We weren't in the mood to have any drinks, but I do know some people seated at the bar were taking in some of their cocktails, and they looked amazing. All in all great spot, attentive for the service, polite and honestly some good food. I will definitely be back if I'm in the area, since they had quite a few things on the menu to choose from!

They were falling apart, rolled poorly and mostly rice and avocado. If this had been from an inexpensive place I wouldn't have thought much about it but these were $24 rolls each! How do you even charge $200 for a plate of rice with any integrity??? The flavor wasn't bad but it was exremely underwhelming, bland and it sorta bombed my birthday. I ordered one order of nigiri and I'm 5'3 and 115 lbs for reference and the two pieces of fish on top of the rice were each smaller than my pinky finger. C'mon, that's ridiculous and embarassing to serve that for $12 for 2 pieces of fish that were barely a nibble. This is not NOBO malibu. I am really disappointed and feel ripped off. I completely understand that costs are high and its hard to make a profit these days but this is beyond that. I hate to write a less than favorable review for any business as a business owner myself but this needs to be shared and hopefully the business owner will address it. Please do better this is just not acceptable!

The rainbow roll was also good. Seemed fresh. Clear soup was flavorful. The salad was a bit disappointing. Looks like just lettuce, sliced cucumber, and dressing. I have not tried the dressing yet as I was too full. I am saving the chicken hibachi dinner for day 2 but did have a bite of everything. Did not seem overly flavorful so I will be adding some soy sauce to it when eaten. Might also add some veggies or something to the fried rice. Just very plain. Overall it was good and I appreciated being able to order to go and eat at home.
