    30pc Sushi Combo
    Jenny T.

    Food: Sushi and ginger eggplant were INCREDIBLE! Some of the best sushi I've had. Service: Food was fast. Ambiance: One of the toilets wouldn't flush properly, there was a ton of toilet paper and the water kept going up. I flagged it to one of the servers. But it was dirty.

    Salmon Avocado Roll, Tuna Roll
    Ying X.

    A neighborhood Japanese restaurant in the Union Square area, opened in 2011. A friend recommended it, and it has a hidden gem feel to it. Agedashi Tofu: The best Agedashi tofu I've ever had! The outer shell was incredibly crispy and light, while the lower half, soaked in boiling broth, was so soft and almost translucent; the inside was smooth and delicate, almost runny. The dashi broth was extremely flavorful, with just the right amount of saltiness and a slightly sweet aftertaste; mixing in the ginger and radish puree, it's not as spicy as I expected, but rather enhances the umami flavor to another level. It was so comforting to eat. Salmon Avocado Rolls: The salmon was of good quality--tender, smooth, soft, and chewy, with a rich, oily texture, and cut quite thick. Combined with the oily, fragrant avocado, it was very satisfying. Tuna Rolls: Also thickly cut, completely free of any fishy taste. Another enjoyable experience.

    Amazing fresh sushi. Staff was friendly and was able to accommodate a super last minute huge cooked catering order. Nice presentation and flavor was amazing. Best sushi

    Their sushi takeout is consistently good, and the special rolls are beautifully made and topped generously. The prices for the sushi are a bit expensive, but the portions are sizeable as well. The staff are friendly and efficient, and takeout orders are always timely!

    Very fresh sushi for a reasonable price and a great ambiance. Walk in only. I like Ebi sushi and this is despite the fact that it's a walk in only! Rolls were very fresh, and I particularly liked their options that included eel sauce. Ordered: Blue dragon: more of a unique roll. I got it to try because it looked different from standard sushi rolls, but I found that I didn't like how crunchy it was. I think the bean sprouts inside it contributed to this Miso salmon: it sounded delicious and it was. Fish was fresh and didn't have any sort of smell but was pretty clearly high quality Veggie gyoza: I am always charmed when restaurants have green dumpling wrappers for veggie options. I got these pan fried and liked them! Six per order Service was decently quick and attentive even on a Friday evening. I have no complaints! I'd come again

    Had high expectations for this place but it was a little disappointing. We were a big group but still service was slow and had make attempts to get their attention multiple times for water and missing cutlery. The food was decent nothing too crazy. The boat presentation and everything was kind of sad to look at but I would say getting the salmon belly is worth it. The volcano is a little different from what I've usually seen, there weren't as many toppings, not giving explosion but it did form the shape. The place was packed so expect it to be a little louder and having to speak up. There is parking in the lot beside the restaurant that's paid and also a clean bathroom.

    Celebratory lunch date. Was packed on a weekday because it was a public holiday and we waited a long time for the staff to clear a table for us. They were very busy. Service was slow that day. The food was great at usual. Melt in the mouth torched salmon belly and the tasty salmon ninniku. We also enjoyed the Smoky lemon hamachi and the scallop nigiri - both the truffle and the honey pecorino. Ordering off the nigiri menu is always a treat!

    My birthday was on a Saturday this year and so my husband and I came here a little before the peak dinner rush. We wrote our names down and were told it would be a 30min wait, so I set a 20min timer and crossed the street to get a drink at the Independent in the meantime. Kid you not, as we got our drink at the bar we got the call that the table was ready. This was all within 10mins of setting my timer. It took a while for someone to attend to us while we were seated but as soon as I started looking around for a server quickly took notice and came right over came to take our order. She was nice. We order some of our usuals - tiger roll, boston roll, eel roll and squid roll,- and a few new items - Everything was so fresh and yummy. It was a good dining experience. They'll be moving across the street soon and I'm glad I got to experience the ambience of the restaurant post renovations and pre-relocating

    i have been here multiple times, and it is my favorite sushi in the area. I love their nigiri, and we tried a soba dish this most recent time that was really yummy. We sat at the bar and it was fun to watch them make everything. Our server was helpful and attentive. Has a chill, late-night ambiance that is enjoyable and just right!

    Solid sushi place, the quality of nigiri is good quality and overall a great value. I got the 20 piece combo with 14 piece nigiri. It came with miso soup that was absolutely delicious. I tried the tiger roll which has shrimp tempura and has a spicy crab mix on top that is torched. My favorite was the yellowtail nigiri that I normally don't get. Torched salmon belly was good but it would have been better if it was warm. Overall good service and good food. The asthetics are cute too! They have a parking lot next to the restaurant which you have to pay for.

    Parking is paid to park, restaurant has a nice groovy vibe to it. Good for group/double date or even kids. However the wait is terrible long even when it's not during rush hour or crowded. The food is okay, not standout, just standard. Has a bar section with lot of drinks option for you to try

    Honestly, I don't think you can go wrong with any sushi joint in Boston. For someone who was born and raised in TX where we did not have good access to fresh seafood.. Boston was crazy good. Came here without a reservation for a small snack and drinks.. however ended up ordering more because it was THAT good. NOTHING smelled fishy. everything was super fresh. I believe the restaurant had a sign stating they are moving to a new location so hopefully its a bigger space because it was a little tight here. I did see they also do catering. Did not order it myself but saw someone take huge trays of beautifully made rolls.

    Agedashi Tofu
    Erin O.

    My partner and I had a lovely dinner at Ebi Sushi! The ambiance here is great and it's conveniently located as well. The staff were also very accommodating and friendly. We started things off with the agedashi tofu, which honestly turned out to be my favorite thing we ordered. The broth and fried tofu skin truly is unbeatable. We then ordered two rolls (one spicy maki and another basic salmon roll) as well as some sashimi. It was a bit pricey but the portions felt pretty fair to me. The flavors and freshness of the fish were great and everything really complemented each other well. We ended our meal with a butter cake (and some vanilla ice cream) which was very tasty and the perfect sweet treat. I'd definitely love to come back or even order takeout from here again.

    Four words: spicy cold niku udon. The signature is also good!…read more I've been a fan of Yume ever since I found out about it when I went to Tufts for college. It was the Asian-American community's go-to spot for dine-in, take-out, or both! This was back when they had their location in the Lesley University food court too - people would be lining up for 30+ minutes to get a coveted seat at one of their humble seats. I look fondly on when they would yell "perfect" whenever I finished my bowl, praising how I slurped every freshly cut udon noodle and devoured every ounce of broth or crispy tempura bit they put in there. The new location is just a few stores down, still in/out of the Lesley University mall area. It has a nice ambiance and feels less cramped. While I miss the "perfect" yelling, the flavor still tastes just as good even if it's gotten an insane amount of hype since then. Would highly recommend ordering takeout if you're in a rush - they do it very efficiently, both at the original Cambridge location and the new Seaport location too. I'm so happy for all of their success!

    On Thursday around 2:30pm, we came and got greeted and seated quickly (no line!)…read more Just to preface, I know they're best known for their cold udon, but fall is starting and I really wanted to have broth! So, I ordered the spicy hot Niki udon and my bf ordered the hot Niki udon. The spicy one was good. I know the bowl looks red and scary but I promise it's not actually that spicy- just enough for a little kick. Broth was flavorful and has good balance of savory/spicey/just a bit of sweetness. However, my bf's non-spicy wasn't as good. The broth was weirdly a little too sweet? It also kinda reminds me of a curry broth which we weren't expecting. He wasn't happy with his broth and preferred my spicy broth. Besides the broth, the actual items in the soup were delicious. The noodles are very thick, slightly bouncy (but not as bouncy as I prefer) and taste fresh. They give you a good portion of beef which is tender. There are probably like 2 tbsp of green onions which was amazing bc I love green onion! And the green onions weren't spicy, just fresh. I think what really leveled the bowl up was the pieces of tempura which added a nice texture. I actually finished my whole bowl and didn't need a takeout container which rarely happens. So each bowl is enough for like one serving (do not share!). There is an open kitchen type situation so I could kind of peak over the counter and see the chefs. They played music on a volume louder than average, but there were good songs. Overall, I would not recommend the hot Niki udon but the spicy Niki udon is great. I do want to try their infamous cold udon which is broth-less. Service was quick and staff were very nice.
