so on the positive, the service was very very good. now on to the food, it had been several years since i had been there so why wouldn't i go back because it was very good, WAS being the operative word. i ordered the tuna sashimi and squid salad. the tuna had an artificial color to it and no taste. the squid salad was just OK. i have never left food at a sushi restaurant. i was served 7 pieces of the tuna and i only ate 3 i was so disappointed, doubtful I'll go back. read more

We have been ordering here for about five years. Yesterday when we went on the website, we realized it had changed! I have to say everything was amazing. Even better than before. Everything tasted fresh and the California rolls were maybe some of the best I've ever had; even in San Francisco! We always do takeout because I'd rather just hang here and drink our own sake. But they areour go to for Valentine's Day and yesterday was our anniversary. read more

Really gone downhill. Ramen noodles were a giant undercooked clump. Sushi rolls we ordered were very poorly prepared. And service was simply awful. read more

I had the key west roll. I was pleasantly surprised that an Albuquerque sushi place can master such dishes. I will definitely come back

The sushi is always fresh, has great quality and taste! Definitely one of my favorite sushi places in ABQ! Although this last visit, the service was lacking that is the reason for the 4 star review. The baked California roll is the best roll! It is a normal California roll that is baked with the special sauce and a jalapeño on top or each piece of the roll. This place is a must try!! read more

Yummy food. I love getting sushi here and the bento box is amazing! Great service. Highly recommend.

I have loved Crazy Fish for about 8 or 9 years now. Had my first date with hubby there, got engaged there, and go as often as I can. Kit is the owner and he is SUCH a great guy. They recently expanded into the space next door. They were closed for what seemed like forever, but now that they've re-opened, it was worth the wait. The new space is very cute. They have expanded their menu now to include Korean BBQ and Shabu-Shabu--which I haven't gotten to try yet but I am super excited to. They added ramen to the menu as well. This is going to be my one-stop-shop for all my food cravings summer or winter!! I highly suggest you visit. The sushi is fresh and delicious and the menu has an option for everyone. read more

I had the spicy rainbow roll. Very beautiful and delicious. Good portion for the price. My only criticisms are- It was not at all spicy. I ordered it to go and put my own hot sauce on it. Secondly, I practically had to unhinge my jaw to eat it. Should be been cut into thinner slices. Minor complaints as overall it was great for the price. read more

Crazy Fish - Spicy Rainbow Roll. Good, but not spicy at all. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I'm going to give this place 5 stars, why? I just want to say thank you to the two waitresses the night of November 6th. The ONLY two waitresses on a Friday night. Y'all kicked butt and definitely deserve a raise. Food was good! We ordered 4 rolls. I'm very skeptical about where I order sushi from. The Asian Noodle bar down town has always been my favorite but this place comes into a close second . Miso soup for a starter but you do have to ask for it didn't see it in the menu. read more

Great service and the largest rolls around town! We are regulars for their togo and they never disappoint. read more

Came in last night to celebrate the semester's end, and luckily there were tables available, so we sat at a four-top in the back. My girlfriend and I browsed the sushi list, marking off different items along the way. We also ordered a large bottle of Asahi. Right away, more and more customers began arriving, and the restaurant was soon full. There were people standing outside waiting for a table, and we watched as the staff put two tables together for a large party that called ahead. This didn't slow down our order of egg rolls, but did account for a long wait for the check later on. As the miso soup started to run low, our fish arrived. The seven slices of tuna were amazing to behold, beautifully colored and textured, and equally agreeable to the tastebuds. The salmon nigiri was soft and easy to bite through, while the yellowtail presented the most complex taste yet. We also enjoyed the mysterious third nigiri we received, which we don't remember ordering but found tasty nonetheless. The real American sushi experience came from the specially Red Robin roll. Copied from their menu, this roll features "spicy tuna and cucumber inside with tuna, mustard cream sauce, and eel sauce on top." This isn't a particularly adventurous combination, but it's a delicious one that also provides a pleasing tactile experience in the mouth. I chose to eat the pieces in two bites each. Overall, much better meal than we had expected given some of the things we had read about this place. Based on the heavy traffic of customers, it would appear that word has gotten out. This may be the best sushi in Nob Hill. read more

Ordered doordash crazy fish. I ordered a rainbow and a phil roll. Way too much garlic it was overwhelming and in each dish. Unfortunately, it took away from the taste of the food. However, the presentation was fabulous. read more

Great sushi, some of the best sashimi salmon I have had with generous size pieces! Will definitely be back when in the area

One of our fave sushi places in Abq, wish it were a little closer to our house and we'd frequent more often.

Food is alright for sushi in the desert. I hope the owner can help motivate his staff to help customers feel more welcome, lol as soon as i walked in i could feel the lack of enthusiasm floating in the air like a stale mist. Good luck! read more

TERRIBLE SERVICE AND FOOD. Went as a party of 2, and they only asked for my boyfriend's order and only refilled his water cup, did not ask us if we wanted different drinks. rude staff. if 0 stars was possible i would choose that any day. read more

Was just ok for me. I live in LA... So bar is set pretty high. Friendly establishment... This is in nob hill? Where ever that is.. Im out of town so thx yelpers! Fresh fish.. Had the cucumber mixed fish roll. (Maguro, salmon, hamachi, seared white fish) -Wish they didnt drown it with the ponzu sauce and a caliroll inside. If it was only the fish, light rice , jalapenos and masago and a light splash of the ponzu it would have been great i feel. -instead it was a mushy gob... Bummer. I picked all the fish out and ate it like sashimi (it was good fresh fish). When you have that good quality of fish you dont need to drown it in other stuff.. Just let it shine. What saved the meal? -hot miso soup on the house yum! -simple crispy green salad yum -salmon skin handroll likely one of the best ive had yet! Super crunchy skin,, nice mix of veggies.. Again a bit heavy handed on the eel sauce but over all home run! -plain ole unagi (when that is fresh, charred and sitting on top of perfectly cooked and seasoned Sushi rice yum! They nailed this. I reallly hate rubbery unagi which they did not do here ..yes! I was just here for work for 24 hrs so a decent stop... Would i come back? Nah... I will likely check out other joints next time. Service ...poor college dude seemed a bit green in serving.. Either that or he was tired: -had to ask for water refilled several times -he didnt ask about the meal till i was done (there were only 4 tables) 2 were at the sushi bar -wanted to take my plates and i was still eating.. U ask before you grab and take (just sort of "off" Service) read more

We were staying over in Albuquerque for the night and looking for somewhere to eat. The sweet girls at the hotel recommended a bunch of places and this was on the list. We checked reviews and settled on here. So glad we did. This was some of the best sushi I've ever had. We ordered a chicken teriyaki bowl and a chicken yakisoba as well but we're so full from the sushi, we didn't get to it. We took it back to the hotel and the kids enjoyed it later. This place is definitely worth going to. The staff were so sweet as well. read more

Always the best sushi in ABQ. My favorite roll is the Key West Roll - it has spicy tuna and salmon inside AND on it (bonus sashimi) ‍‍

The rolls were massive and well priced. The fish was fresh and the flavors were on point. The staff was friendly and the restaurant was clean. I am glad that our first sushi choice was closed. Excellent quality and service. read more

The waiter with the bandana & saturn tattoo was inappropriate towards customers, one of which was a minor. He was discussing his naked adventure after a roofie at a house party (but he does teach guitar to little kids so that's nice). His coworker was hot but silent apart from the guitar comment to hype up his friend. Somewhat concerned about the naked story, someone should check in on him & refer to his instagram for photo reference. The food was good, portions were perfect. No face on the caterpillar roll though which was a low point for the group :/ Might go back though :) read more

Best sushi in ABQ! And they deliver Grateful to have been introduced to them by my good friend. My new go-to sushi spot.

Excellent sushi. Great location. Nice atmosphere. I ordered sushi combo and the chicken teriyaki bowl. I enjoyed it all. The staff was great. read more

Ohhh yes this sushi was delicious. It didn't disappoint for sure! It had been awhile since I had been here. I want to say I've been a customer since it first opened by century 24 theatre! My husband (now ex) was a Californian in search for a good sushi place in NM and we found it then. It has always been a real sushi place! Tonight, my daughter and I had the spicy salmon roll, spicy scallop roll, super crunch roll and we topped it off with banana tempura. Sorry no photos because we ate it! Haha read more

My mother, sister and I have been coming to crazy fish for years! It is the only place we go to for sushi, takeout and dining in.

Craving sushi rolls on a sunday night, we ventured to this cute little spot on central. I'm assuming they wanted to compensate for how HOT it was outside by blasting their AC. Nice, but I was uncomfortably cold the entire time I was here. Upon ordering 2 rolls between mart and myself, we were served 2 bowls of miso soup. no complaint there. We got a crunchy roll and dragon roll. The crunchy roll was overly doused with soy sauce bc thats all I could taste. The dragon was much tastier and more satisfying. our 2 rolls cost us 24 bucks. Prices are standard for specialty rolls (10-14) I don't want to x this place off my list but I'll probably try other places before I return here. read more

Went here a couple of nights ago before heading in to the Lobo theater. Place had three tables. 1.5 hours later there were 20 tables and everyone had eaten except us. Then they had the nerve to present us with a 70 check. Ummm... you have to actually get food. Too bad. I've eaten here before and the food was decent. Won't be going back. There are better choices. read more

This was my first sushi meal after giving birth (9+ months is a LONG time without sushi!) and it did not disappoint. I don't even remember what we ordered, but I'd say any of their rolls will be good. Quality fish, fresh, and good menu selection. Will have to go back to try more of their items! read more

The quality of the food and sushi especially is fresh and always high grade. The best part about crazy fish is they give you a generous amount for your sashimi and rolls. I usually do delivery to my house and it's always on time and as expected read more

Verdict: Haven't found the crazy but I did find some good fish. I'll never have super high hopes for fresh sushi in a desert but there are some half decent places in the ABQ. Crazy Fish has always treated us well and I respect the chef; trusting him to deliver a consistently good tasting roll. It's a good 3.5+. I had the Unagi and avocado rolls on my last visit and a Combo C on the one before that. The more traditional rolls have also been well executed on our prior lunches. From what I've seen, you can't go wrong and Crazy Fish is one of the better sushi restaurants in the immediate area. Beware the "all you can eat" sushi option nearby. Read up on that one beforehand so you know all the rules that go along with that meal. read more

I can't believe I haven't yet written a review for this joint--my hands-down fave sushi restaurant in NM. I want to preface by saying that the sushi selection in NM has much to be desired (an understatement). That said, 2 sushi restaurants in ABQ make the cut. If you're looking for a delicate, artful sushi experience, this ain't it--BUT if you want thick slices of fresh fish, hearty portions, and consistent quality, Crazy Fish is crazy delish. We have been eating here for years (6+ yrs) and always leave happy and satisfied. In fact, this sushi bar is our go-to restaurant for any treat or special occasion--birthday, anniversary, celebration, whatever. The specialty rolls are creative and tasty, and we always order at least one with our usual nigiri selections. We've also tried most of their salads and hot appetizers--it's all been delicious and well-executed, you really can't go wrong here. The owner/head sushi chef is one of the hardest working folks I've seen in the restaurant biz. If you eat at the sushi bar and order from him, he will remember you and what you like, and even recommend new dishes to try based on your past preferences. This is exactly the kind of experience you want at your local sushi joint. We have been doing our part to keep their doors open during the pandemic. We have ordered takeout there at least 2x/month since the restaurant closures began (at least 10x). Our order is always customized, and it's perfect every time. Our sushi budget is breaking the bank, but we can't have one of the only decent sushi joints in NM close down (or we might need to move to another state). Whether we're sipping a hot sake with our cool, refreshing fish at the sushi bar (we miss doing this so, so much!) or breaking open a takeout box packed with yummy goodness, Crazy Fish hits the spot time after time. read more

Crazy fish has beautiful, tasty, and satisfying food. However recently (i assume thanks to covid) general overall quality has gone down. No longer can you sit at a bar to see food being made, now its taken over by stacks and stacks of plastic soy sauce containers and to-go orders. We didnt get all we ordered, we didnt get asked for our drink orders and when we did ask for drinks, not all arrived. We were basically ignored by our server. If you do go... food is good, but its a gamble on service read more
