Carin ..

Cozy sushi spot in Simpsonville, SC. The staff is friendly and attentive, the food is fresh and delicious, and the restaurant is clean. Even our teenager loved his meal.

Chef 21 Sushi Burgers

I really liked this restaurant. The sushi burgers are huge! Their ramen is tasty as well. Their place is nicely decorated and clean and the service was quick and pleasant. A cute place for a dinner date.

Menu 1

I read a lot about this restaurant before going and was really excited. The menu is HUGE, I took pictures but im sure i am missing at least 10 pages. The place is cute. Staff was really nice and attentive. The issue was their special sushi was just not working for me! I took pictures but no way that fits in your mouth even for a half bite. It was also strangely filled. I am just kot a fan. I think with their 20 page menu they try to do too much.

The outside looks sketch- but the inside is clean, respectable, small dining area. Very friendly service. We were traveling & stopped on the way through. A must try!

This place is so good if you like a fusion style - it's great sushi, burgers, and interesting combos of both. I had the sushi burger which is basically fried rice patties as the bun and spicy tuna in the middle. So good and unique! The sweet potato fries were also awesome. Small, very casual vibe and fills up quickly with limited space. Looking forward to trying the new downtown Greenville location because it apparently Has different menu and also Korean bbq! Nice addition to the GVL food scene.

The Avocado Grenade

This place checks all the boxes! We each enjoyed our order. And the Avocado Grenade was a new and unique experience.

Chef 21 is a cute little restaurant in Simpsonville. It t is the former home of The Mad Cuban. I have been there a few times and always enjoyed it. My favorite item to order is the AvocadoGrenade. It is very good. It is a fried avocado with a big scoop of spicy crab and Daikon (shredded radishes) with eel sauce. I have also ordered several sushi rolls and they all tasted great. My husband usually orders the Mango Salmon. It was also delicious. It comes with a side of fried rice and a small salad. Their servers are always friendly.

Phenomenal fusion of sushi and other Asian cuisine. A great place for high quality sushi, great drink selection and creative desserts all served with beautiful presentation. The ambiance is a creative casual mélange of Asian and American influence, creating a unique experience in Greenville. Favorites include the Gold Rush and the Chef sushi for 1.

We have been here a few times and the sushi is not only unbelievably good but the presentation is on point! And who knew you could get a delicious angus burger!

Bulgogi Sushi Burger
Chandler B.

It doesn't look like much from the outside, but inside they are creating UNIQUE items for people seeking exciting cuisine. I am blown away by some the ideas being thrown around on this menu. I have never seen a coconut sushi roll before, but it was genuinely the best roll I have had in a long time. The Bulgogi Sushi burger was good, a little more greasy than I'd like, but the beef and kimchi together created a phenomenal flavor. I wish I could have tried more of these unique items, especially the BOOZY BOBA! Aside from the food, the restaurant was extremely well taken care of and they even decorated it with some nice Halloween decor for the season. The service was also great, granted I was by myself. My server was extremely attentive and made sure I had everything I needed at all times. Considering it is tucked away in a shopping center, this is definitely one of those over looked GEMS.

Hollywood Roll
Jennifer A.

In the area for work and had a taste for Sushi! My hair stylist told me about this spot so today was a great day to try it out. Since it was later in the evening, I ordered online for pickup. My order was ready within minutes of my arrival. I was greeted and helped almost immediately. I ordered the Hollywood Roll and crab Rangoons. Both were good. The Rangoons barely had crab meat in them. I tasted mostly cream cheese. I'll try a different appetizer next time. It seemed nice inside with a outdoor seating area. I'll definitely return. I saw other menu items I'd like to try.

Update 9/4/21 - came here for an early dinner and as usual was not disappointed!!! The burger and rolls were great and it was some of the best kimchi I've ever had. Side note: my father was in Korea from 1951 to 1953 and became friends with some locals who taught him how to make kimchi. This was some of the best I've had since my fathers recipe. We'll definitely visit here again!

Sushi

Really neat twist on a sushi bar. Creative and trendy yet family friendly. This place was super crowded and a tight fit, plan ahead if your dining in and give yourself 30 minutes to wait for a seat. They could really use another 500 square feet at a minimum. Barely enough room to squeeze by to sit. We were a party of 4 and another party of 2 were added to our to our table (we offered) because it was so crowded they were blocking the exit. I will definitely go back if I'm ever in the area again though, so many items on the menu that I still want to try. Sushi burgers! Sashimi, sake, salads, just to name a few. Really friendly staff & the service was way better than you'd expect for such a crowded place. Our server was great. This place was also preparing takeout. They are really efficient, a small business could learn a lot from them about their efficiency.

This location doesn't even deserve a star. I've been to their other locations without issues but…read morethis one is the worst. We got sat right away. Inside is small. Maybe 10-12 tables. We waited over 10 mins and nobody greeted us. A table got sat after the 10 mins we were there and got greeted immediately! I said something to the hostess and she said she was going to find our server. Waited another 5 mins and I see that table already has drinks and their order taken. Come to find out I see their server was also our server. Why were they greeted and served first? I asked to speak to a manager and he comes up and doesn't greet us. Just nods his head up as if saying "sup". So that triggered me. Where is the customer service? I explain to him what's going on and he didn't know what to say. He finally gets our drink order and I see him fussing at our server. Our server comes back with drinks and we order our food. Our food was incorrect! Wrong cheese and wrong toppings plus the pizza was so flat in the middle you can see the silver platter that was under it. And you would think she would give us good service after we waited over 20 mins at that point to be helped and order food but we had to ask for drink refills. We were there for over 2 hours and not by choice. I did end up calling the owner and he seemed to take it serious. I told him I couldn't help but wonder if race had anything to do with it or if it was because we were in sweats. He said that def shouldn't be the case. He said he was going to look at cameras for proof. I said please do bc I timed everything and I told him where we sat and what we wore and the table that got greeted before us. I heard from him a week later and he just texts to apologize and sends a gift card. Gift card was a nice gesture but I still haven't used it yet. Just so turned off by the whole situation.

The tables are decorated and it gives you a warm atmosphere The folks there are very nice and helpful. And the food selections are really good. They have farm raised products and really interesting side items. We noticed they didn't have French fries however. My daughter felt that would have made it better for her. The burgers were fresh and tasted very well. The sides we had were squash and Mac & cheese. Both were very good. They had an amazing sweet tea. Gotta try that! I liked the Almost Heaven burger which is a burger with bacon and egg. We definitely will try it again when passing through! I may try the chicken sandwich or wrap next time though, just to mix it up a little.

I came through the door and a non melanated person comes in after me...I walked up to the counter and the person behind the counter (who SAW me walk in first) goes straight to the non melanated person first (who came in after me) and helps them...once that non melanated customer leaves the person behind the counter then turns and walks back to the stove and starts vigorously stirring the pot as if he doesn't see me standing there. I'm left waiting there until the trainee goes to the back and gets someone else who was VERY pleasant and helpful. I was about to put this establishment on my " Non-Melanated Do NOT Disturb or Give Them my Money" List!!!! Because first of all Sir...I came in first and I was the first one at the counter. You saw me come in first...you looked right past me and didn't make any eye contact. If I hadn't pre ordered and paid my food I would have walked out. And honestly I'm not one of those people who makes everything about skin color but this was obvious! He could have EASILY said..."someone will be with you shortly", or even "HELLO" ...if it wasn't for the guy who came out from the back, who may have been a manager I would have given a one star but I didn't run into this guy the first time and the food is good and taste fresh. I'm only giving two stars because of that particular employee. I didn't get his name but he was cooking,
