The food was awesome. Taste like authentic sushi. The service is pretty good. The food came out pretty fast. The place is pretty clean. Definitely made me feel like I was in Japan. Only complaint I have is the server was a little bit rude. read more

One of your strip mall Japanese Sushi places that seem to be plenty of in this area. I needed to use chopsticks to keep my skills up and was hungry for sushi for supper. Since I was at the car wash in the parking lot, I decided to try. Ordered my normal order of dragon roll sushi. A little higher than normal price I pay. Waited on a chair in the empty dining room. About 10 minutes later, I paid for and got my meal. At least I could watch Fish TV since they don't have a live tank. When I got home, I found instead of tempura shrimp in the middle, it had that crab salad filling. Rest was normal dragon roll. Not impressed with it, average at best and that is being kind. Since I am moving, I will not be back but if I wasn't, I would stick to Busch's since it is also located in the strip mall. read more

Decent sushi place. Did start off with miso soup and edamame before going into the rolls. I've had sushi in many other establishments and this place was not bad at all, but nothing here stood out to me. Can't go wrong with lunch here, but don't expect it to be spectacular. read more

Food was okay. But I really didn't like they used the menus that have old price on it, bug charge d "newer price" Felt like I was scammed, as they never notified until I pointed out on the bill. read more

The food was good. A Little too much sugar in the sushi rice but the fish was fresh. I'm only giving them 2 stars because of what happened... I was calling around to different sushi places to see if they offered their rolls using brown rice due to a specific diet my dr has me on. I was excited when they told me yes I could order my rolls with brown rice because Happy Sushi is close to my house and I was happy to support a small business. I went and picked my order up and when I got home I was disappointed to find that my rolls had white rice. I had to get back to work so I couldn't go back. Luckily my husband likes sushi so I left it for him and I had to scrounge around for something else. read more

I ordered takeout to bring to a friend. The ambiance I walked into when picking up the order was so peaceful and relaxing! I would love to come back and dine-in for the environment alone! Wow! I was blown away. The loud traffic and construction during rush hour was left on the other side of the door. It was quiet and calming inside. We ate four different rolls and it was delicious! Diane, Dragon, Dynamite, and spicy California - would totally get them all again. read more

It was beyond difficult to understand the woman that answered the phone, nearly impossible. I did manage to thrift out that they are open until 9PM and are open for dine-in after several tries. The word from the other tables is there is no sushi chef working here tonight. Ok. Should be interesting. They made the table in front of us incorrectly Ordered 2 Las Vegas roll, no king crab today, a dragon roll, spicy scallop roll, 2 ginger salad and an edamame. $46.90. They were skimpy about the sriracha, I asked for more. The woman brought the whole bottle for us to fill up ourselves. The dragon roll wasn't my favorite, way too thick for my liking. The scallop roll is okay, different. The Las Vegas roll is the better of the 3 rolls, but every few rolls something would taste odd, almost musty or moldy to me. Could not quite place what was off though. Service was ok. read more

One of the better options in and around the west side of Detroit (suburbs). In an environment where there are numerous sushi places, Happy is great! Highly recommended. read more

My husband and I came here on a recommendation of a friend. We are arrive at about 5:30 PM on Thursday and there was nobody else in the restaurant. Should I have taken that as a sign? I still don't know. We were greater properly and given menus. The menus have seen better days. They were changes made to the sushi menus and they could've used a good wipe down. The server answered all of our questions and we placed our order. The miso soup arrived warm, not hot. But it tasted pretty good and I finished it. The side salad with ginger dressing was bigger than I expected. The ginger dressing was not the best that I've ever had nor was it the worst I've ever had (I felt maybe the dressing was more carrot than ginger). Personally I would've liked a more gingery taste to the dressing. We ordered sashimi and that was very fresh tasting. We also ordered a spider roll and that was quite good. We also ordered the Novi roll and this is pretty much the first time in history that I have never finished a roll. I really did not care for the seafood topping - it tasted a little funny to me. Maybe not spoiled but maybe it was on its last day. Or maybe it was the combination of ingredients that was not appealing. Bummer as there was a lot of that topping/salad on top of the roll. I scrapped that off and ate the main part of the roll. Personally, I will not be back as I really only enjoyed the sashimi. Hubby said he would come back but he is on his own for that trip. read more

Food amazing service amazing ambiance comforting. Nicest people and the best food I've had in Novi since I moved here in January.

Very friendly staff! I've been going here since 2010 and it never disappoints! The inside is very cute and the prices are reasonable!

Do not get carry out. Order is never ready on time and often presentation looks like Kroger sushi. Not worth the price

Pros: Cost Food quality Speed of preparation for door dash Cons: None identified thus far. read more

It was okay. Got take out. It was pretty fast from order to pickup. Sushi was good. I've had a lot better but was good in a pinch. Prices were decent. read more

Because of the close proximity of this restaurant to our place of residence, we have been ordering carry out from Happy Sushi fairly frequently. I feel that it is important to update my previous review because, for the most part, the food is decent and their sushi is actually very good. The taste of their sushi has a flavorful profile. The seaweed and the ingredients come together very well, quite satisfying! They do make some mistakes with carry out, such as not following some requests or forgetting the rice that comes with certain dinners. It is a good idea to check your order before you leave. But, when everything comes together correctly, it is a decent to above average, at times, with their sushi consistently above average. Also, the prices here are a little less than other places nearby, making Happy Sushi a pretty nice choice. read more

Not good at all. I ordered this on door dash and I was so hungry. The rolls all tasted the same and nothing was really cooked. It was just basic rolls with basic filling and topped off with tons of eel sauce. I had to order from this place because the other sushi spots were closed but this did not do anything for me. Maybe they have better items on the menu but the rolls that I got were definitely a pass for me. read more

One of the things I love about coming to my hometown is being so close to this restaurant! I can safely say I've been about 50 times at least in my life. It's nothing fancy on the inside, but the sushi is great!! I used to come here years ago and it was awesome, but for some reason the quality worsened over time, and now it seems to have shifted again into being great quality! Don't expect great service (it's usually not) or any sort of fancy ambiance, but the sushi is great, fresh, and very affordably priced! I don't get any of the fancy rolls (I stick to the simple ones, so can't speak much about those), but will always stay loyal to Happy Sushi :) read more

Happy Sushi is aptly named since it is my happy place for sushi. Located in a strip mall, I usually order take-out, but the other evening, dining in was in order. That evening, I had the tuna roll with avocado which was okay since it included only tiny portions of the main ingredients. Much better was the mackerel nigiri and tamago, each with its own distinctive flavors. However, it was the Spider Roll that was spectacular. Since I am allergic to salmon (sad, I know), the chef replaced it with white fish. The fish was well textured, had wonderful mouth-feel, and was delicious with the other ingredients. The sole server was efficient. read more

Honestly the most disgusting ramen I've ever ordered. They sent it with the broth and noodles in the same container so the noodles were too soggy. The pork is unseasoned. There are no toppings. Why even offer this? read more

Unfortunately, my experience this first (and probably) last visit to Happy Sushi surly did not make me happy. Whilst the wait was relatively short, the quality of the sushi when it arrived left something more to be desired. The taste was alright, nothing exceptional. The most concerning, and downright unacceptable was that of the condition of the restroom facilities. To say the least and to prevent the further loss of appetite. It was truly and utterly disgusting. If the bathrooms are a literal mess, I'm concerned to see where the food is coming from. read more

My absolute favorite sushi place. Every time I try sushi from somewhere else whether that be a restaurant or even Kroger sushi, I always compare it to happy sushi. I have yet to find better tasting sushi. The staff is friendly and it's always a quick in and out when ordering takeout. Highly highly recommend! read more

Went here on a first date as a recommendation. As someone who's been to Ronin and Noble Fish, I was disappointed. The sushi was mediocre at best. They were willing to accommodate an allergy and bring a side dish of eel sauce for my date. The house special roll is GINORMOUS! I think I like the volcano roll and spider roll best. The reason for only 2 stars is we were bombarded by fruit flies the entire time we were there... To the point we began to worry about the safety of what we were eating. I even had to send my first glass of Plum wine back because a fly fell in it. And the staff is not very friendly... Kind of cold. read more

Ordered Shrimp Fried Rice & Michigan roll for delivery. Michigan roll had a strong fishy odor, but ate it anyway was starving, didn't get sick. Put the other in the fridge to eat the next day. Opened the container and realized I receive about a quart of plain white rice with 6 cooked shrimp and about a 1/4 cup if cayenne peppers poured over it. Shocked they didn't realize what shrimp fried rice is supposed to be. Not going back. read more

Best sushi in my opinion. Service is always great with a smile and makes me go back each time. Highly recommend.

First time here today for lunch. Stopped in with my brother who is a sushi fan. Arrived at 11:50. Seated immediately. 6 other patrons in the joint. Not a luxurious interior by any stretch. Might hold 48 people at tables and about 8 at the sushi bar which is at the back of the restaurant. Server was very pleasant and efficient. No small talk.Took our order and went to kitchen. In the next 15 minutes our order came out, and the tables were full. Pretty much all Japanese patrons. We usually use that as a sign that the food is good. And it was. Prices are very reasonable and the variety of food that we sampled was all very good. I did not know this place was even there until I looked on Yelp for sushi joints in Novi. I will now remember that it is there as a currently dependable sushi place. "Happy Sushi" is an appropriate name for my lunch today. A go to place in my book. read more

I just picked up a carry-out sushi roll from Happy Sushi. When I got home the container contained five small (half the size of regular pieces of sushi) pieces of sushi. I called to complain and they indicated that there should be 6 to 8 regular size pieces. I advised them that there were only five pieces. They offered to do nothing. she then became very argumentative with me. I then spoke to the manager who hung up on me. The customer service s non-existent. I have gone there numerous times over the past ten years and have not had a problem. I highly suggest that you carefully check your pick-up orders before you leave the restaurant. There are several other restaurants that sell better sushi in town. Needles to say, with all of teh other choices in town, I will not be returning there again. read more

The place had lot many options of sushi. The ambience was pretty normal but the sushi tasted great. They had vegetarian options also but it didn't taste that great. All and all it was a normal experience. The staff was a bit laid back and the service was not that fast. It was an average experience with a nominal price range for sushi. read more

The decor is a little rough, but the service is kind and patient. The chefs are dedicated and make wonderful food and the owner is fun and both works hard and interacts with the clientele. I have been coming here for several years and am a customer for life! I loved Kevin's Second successful sushi bar he started in Milford and then sold. I will keep coming to any sushi barnKevin owns as the quality and flavor of the food is always fantastic. It's sad to see bad reviews of such a beloved place. It's unfortunate they had a bad experience, but they are trashing a real gem... I live in Ann Arbor, but I make the commute to Novi for Happy Sushi whenever I get the chance. read more

This used to be my favorite local sushi place. Now its under new management and boy has it changed. The Bang Bang shrimp used to have great taste and consistency with just enough sauce to add taste. Now it tastes line its been prepared frozen and nuked. Its drowned in a horrible tasting sauce to hide the fact. The las Vegas roll also seems to be frozen and nuked. The Novi roll tastes like its sesame crackers ground up in kelp and rice, then its smothered in fake crab and noodles. The result is it tastes gross and it falls apart as soon as you try to pick it up. Lastly the servers are rude. Avoid this place at all costs read more

When entering the location on a sunday night at 9:05p, the two ladies both had visible attitudes that my boyfriend and i were there. we were seated and rushed to order eat and leave. when i say rushed i mean the lady pretty much let me put my own sushi in the box and she tried closing the box and tying the bag. when expressing to her my apologies for being a last minute customer and told her google and yelp said they closed at 10. she kept cutting me off saying we close at 930 on sunday. no where does it say that. very horrible experience and the food was not good. will never return here. read more
