I've been to a few sushi restaurants in Utah and Ika sushi is now on top of my list. The rolls were delicious and the fish was top tier! Highly recommend this place if you're looking for some really bomb sushi The service was great as well! They always came by to check if everything tasted amazing read more

We got in pretty late before they closed. No wait, the service was great, and the decor looked really nice. The server was very helpful when we asked for recommendations. The sushi chefs were really personable and we were impressed with their work. We got 3 rolls. In order from our favorite to our least: Garlic albacore lover (seared albacore, crispy onions, chives, garlic butter, and ponzu) Cajun (crab mix, cilantro, shrimp tempura topped with albacore, Cajun spice, jalapeño, chili oil, garlic ponzu, fried onion) Blue Dynamite (blue crab, avocado, topped with spicy scallops, baked, with eel sauce, negi, and masago) Will likely just get the garlic albacore lover again and try new rolls. Definitely recommend trying this place! read more

I am so happy to have found this place. I almost want to gate-keep this place because it is truly the best in all of Utah that I've found and I know good sushi. It's as good as California sushi for sure. The servers are all really nice as well. Sometimes the food comes out really slow but it's worth it. Their omakase, sushi combos, and rolls are all amazing! :) read more

We went here on Monday night for Valentines and kids in tow (!!). This is a good option for casual night out with sushi without the long wait to be seated. We ordered: ROLLS Playboy Vegas Sunset - this was my favorite as I prefer citrus flavor on my rolls Avocado KIDS Vegetable gyoza - this was very good but kids didn't like it was "green" (*eye roll*) Beef gyoza Kids yakisoba - I personally haven't tried yakisoba before so nothing to compare to but noticed it had a sweet note. Chicken teriyaki The food was good and I'd return again. The service was a bit slow as we had to ask again on some sides we ordered so that's an opportunity for improvement. read more

Ika sushi, where have you been all this time. I just recently discovered this little gem in Midvale right across Topgolf. 10/10 quality of fish I am so surprised! Chicken Karaage was not as bad, I would try a different appetizer next time. My top favorite is their Highway 215 roll that I will order over and over again. Vibe and their music really made the experience more relaxing and chill, and it was not as busy when we dined it I would also recommend to get their Purple Haze Sake. read more

When we first got there the place had a really nice vibe and ambience. We ordered our food and drinks and everything was great. The sushi came out and it was honestly not super great. I've had better sushi at other restaurants but for not being close to any bodies of water it was ok. And then once we finished our meals the server was really rude to me and my friends and made us feel really insecure. I will probably never come back just for that reason. read more

I came by recommendation of a ski buddy that visits here a lot and couldn't stop talking about this sushi place. I came in to see what the hype was about and understand now. It's flawless! This isn't your "five sauced extreme sushi explosion" spot. While they do have fantastic house made sauces that accompany everything well, that's clearly secondary. The focus on traditionally prepared, purist style is apparent in a great way. The fish quality shines front and center. And everything that accompanies it is equally perfect. If you're a traveler that might be skeptical about sushi so far from a coast, rest easily, and dine well here. read more

I have been to Ika several times. The tempura is always crisp and good. I usually order the miso cod, a favorite. But on the most recent visit, the cod was disappointing. It used to be a nice filet piece, but this time it was two very thin skimpy slices. I realize prices of food and ingredients have increased, but I would rather pay more than receive a noticeably smaller portion. read more

Wow lol, I never write reviews ever, but man is this place awesome! I'm from Vegas (love different styles of yummy flavors) and it has a great mix of different foods other than Sushi. Great ambiance! Sushi/fish is fresh (no soy sauce necessary!) Ramens hits the spot perfect umami flavors Everyone is attentive and kind. I have been here 5 times and cannot get enough of it! read more

The sashimi and sushi are so spectacular! Today I ordered the sashimi chef special. Halibut, salmon, tuna and one more thing, I forget! Gorgeous presentation! Orchids, violets & of course kelp and some parsley 'trees'. It was so gorgeous and tasty I forgot to take a photo. The Uni Sashimi I ordered was the best I have had anywhere in the world ever! It had a subtle sweetness, perfectly firm to be easy to lift with chopsticks, and it no heavy ocean note. It must be the perfect season in October The halibut was smooth, sweet and rich. Salmon was tasty as fresh caught. Thank you for being here to support my sushi and sashimi addiction. I was worried after living in other large cities known for their sushi bars, this is a gem of a sushi bar with lovely ambiance, friendly staff and impecable food. Service was subtle and efficient, quick, yet unobtrusive. She came to the table just often enough without hovering. read more

Possibly one of the best sushi restaurants out there being born and raised in California I am extremely picky about my Uschi. I like my fish to be fresh and I can tell the moment I taste it. The chef, the food, the fish the service are all service class a I want to say that if you're looking for a good fresh fish, absolutely come to this place. read more

I went here for the first time with my cousin and it's a cute small restaurant. We went during lunch time so it was super quiet. Our waitress was super sweet and attentive. We got the hamachi Kama which I loved and chicken teriyaki for the kids which the kids devoured. As for sushi, we for the play boy, sunset, beat it and baked salmon. They're all pretty saucy which I made the rice soggy so the rolls were ok. We also for nigiri which was good as the fish tasted fresh. Overall, it was decent. read more

I talk about this place all the time. I can't explain how much I love this place - they make the best omakase and they charge them at very reasonable price! I've never tried their rolls...I should because their omakase is so good. The nigiris are always fresh and well balanced. One tiny dollop of whatever on top of all nigiris melt in your mouth. I love this place so much that my husband and I (mainly me) try not to go more than one time a month or order more than 2 times a month. I'm salivating at the thought of omakase. I ordered them twice this month already! Well, tomorrow is July and I'm ordering them again this weekend! Highly recommended if you're looking for a GOOD omakase! read more

I'm always on the hunt for new sushi spots and hadn't heard of this place but going off Yelp reviews, we decided to give it a try--and we're glad we did! It's well worth the visit. The place is small, simple, in a strip mall but it's really all about the food and it absolutely a solid 4/5! We got the calamari appetizer which was a little chewy but the batter was great with a little spicy kick. It didn't come with any kind of sauce which I felt it needed. We got the Blue Dynamite (my fav of the evening), the tornado roll, the beat it roll and a couple others. I'd absolutely go back and try a couple of others and the wide variety of nigiri or omakase offerings! There was only one waitress for the entire place but she handled every table extremely well by herself. Eventually a couple others came into the restaurant to help as the place filled up. Definitely worth a visit! read more

Great dining experience at Ika Sushi. Went for my wife's birthday. We have tried many sushi restaurants in the Salt Lake valley, wanted to try some place new. We definitely was not disappointed. Got a maki roll as well as the Pacific Roll the Twist and Shout and the sashimi sampler. Everything was super tasty and fresh. Absolutely loved the twist and shout, great if you love spicy. And the sashimi was everything you could want in sashimi. Ambience was great and our waitress was pleasant and helpful. Will be back for sure. read more

We went here while on a business trip and the food was fantastic. We all eat different things on the menu, I had sushi, my colleagues had salads, tempura, teriyaki, and soup. The appetizers were fantastic and the Brussels sprouts while not a typical Japanese option were cooked perfectly and had a Japanese twist to them. The restaurant is cute and the service was fantastic. This is a great place to eat while you are visiting the SLC area. read more

So I came to the area for a business trip and was craving sushi. Decided to try this place with my family based on reviews.. *Now I grew up as a fisherman's daughter and know great sushi. This place is super basic and Very overpriced; average. FOOD- took forever to come out and the place wasn't busy. Quality was ok; everything was bland. Cucumber was mushy and tasteless. Barely any sauce on anything. Portions were VERY tiny for the price and tasteless. Food sat on the bar for a long while because there was one server for the entire place. SERVICE- ehh not great. Nice but not great. Needless to say I would definitely NOT recommend this place. I'm sure you can find better elsewhere. Good luck: read more

Hard to find blue fin Tuna and Toro at a lot of Utah sushi spots. These guys have it all the time. I got nigiri with these two fish and they were so good! Vegas roll was one of the best I've had. Rock shrimp roll was also fantastic, best shrimp I've had even on the coast. Fish portions were plentiful and cut thick with low rice ratio, which is a great sign of a good sushi place. We also tried the rice cake with spicy albacore, nothing to write home about and wouldn't recommend. It's located in a strip mall and very unassuming. But the sushi is 100% worth the trip from anywhere in the valley. Will definitely be going back to try more rolls and the halibut carpaccio. Also presentation of the sushi was really well done! read more

Cute little space with very open seating. The sushi was all fresh and tasted delicious too. Only bummer was they were out of uni for the night but was still a good dining experience with all the sashimi and sushi we ordered. The kids meal Yakisoba was very plain and didn't have much of a Yakisoba flavor, hard to say if the adult version would be the same flavor or if it was simplified for kids. Either way that was really the only subpar item we had tried after our kiddo didn't want it. I'd have to say the best cut of fish for the evening was the yellowtail, had that nice creamy hamachi flavor and served on a shiso leaf adds extra points. Service was excellent and enjoyed our dining experience here on a weeknight. read more

I am from California and recently had a huge craving for sushi. I've went to Japan several times and just really haven't found a place here in Utah that gave me the same nostalgia. When it comes to food, I have high standards (because I've been heavily spoiled by my dad who is a chef). I was so excited to try Ika and it truly exceeded my expectations. The service was amazing and there is a secret menu. Definitely ask the waitress (Puajee) on her recommendations because I enjoyed every thing that I ordered. Service: 5/5 ; constantly checked up on us and my water glass was never empty. Gave amazing recommendations and I liked how she brought out the food based on how fast we were eating. Very important for sushi to be at the right temperature during serving so I greatly appreciated that! Ambiance: 4/5 Casual and great for groups. Modernized decor Food: 8.5/10 : A must order: -Truffle Salmon Carpaccio (highly recommended by the staff) -Hamachi Kama (succulent, aromatic, crispy skin, and fall off the bone) -Omakase set (comes in a set of 10 nigiri chef choice) -Fatty tuna nigiri (butter of the sea and immediately melted in my mouth) Please visit this local sushi spot! read more

We called to ask what kind of sushi is in the omakase set today. They guy over the phone said: FOR SURE toro, maybe fatty yellowtail, maybe uni, maybe golden snapper. I thought great, all the ones I like, then we ordered two other rolls on the side instead of those. To my disappointment, there's NO toro, NO fatty yellowtail, NO uni. There's in fact snapper (smallest piece) and TWO mackerel. What kind of omakase gives two of the identical pieces? We ordered two sets, so we got 4 mackerel, which is the fish I hated the most. So I got Tuna, salmon, scallop, red snapper, golden snapper, squid, fish egg, halibut and 2 mackerels, and a spicy tuna handroll (not good!). All the fish tasted bland except for the golden eye snapper. What happened for sure toro? Even I didn't get all the "maybe" stuff but if I got the "for sure toro", I wouldn't be as disappointed. On top of that, I think they forgot to giving us the order, we waited over an hour. They did give us 10% discount for that on their own. (We didn't ask about it) I ended up eating dinner at 9. Food was not that great. So very not happy experience. read more

walking in the restaurant was really cute and we got seated pretty fast. the sushi was okay but it wasn't the best sushi, if you're in midvale i would recommend to just drive up 20 minutes to slc if you're looking for good sushi. the waitress made comments that were rude and it made me and my friends uncomfortable and ruined the vibe. after that we got out of there pretty fast read more

Ika sushi is my favorite sushi restaurant in the Salt Lake valley. Their chef is amazing. The sashimi, rolls, and nigiri are all delicious. I love getting takeout or dining in. They have some cool, colorful decor. I usually get food here at least once a week when I'm in town. read more

Best sushi place in SLC! Their omakase is actually thoughtfully crafted with an appropriate and small amount of different sauces that highly the fish (instead of smothering). The uni is fresh, the negi toro maki roll was made with care, I could taste they included some shiso leaves to balance out the fatty tuna. The more Americanized food is good too, the tempura, calamari, albacore garlic roll all taste good and fresh. I tried a number of highly rated other sushi places in the area but they mostly have just smothered with sauce American sushi, is terribly inconsistent, or is decent but only to scratch the itch. This place, I am already thinking of an excuse to go back soon. read more

Delicious. Quick delivery to our hotel. Fresh and yummy. First time here and it satisfied.

Been looking for a great sushi bar for a year now and knew it would require driving up to the Salt Lake area. Pleased to say I highly recommend this place. Now this could be worthy of a 5 but typically I need to sample the restaurant more than once for consistency when it comes to raw fish. Started off with Miso soup and honestly it was better than most places I have been to, it was hearty, not just broth. Also had edamame that was perfect and beef pot stickers with a nice crisp. Next up was 5 piece Scallop with an interesting flavor that I could not put my finger on but was delicious. Up next was 3 rolls, the Vegas roll is a tempura with salmon, cream cheese and avocado, nicely cooked, and crispy. Next was the Shrimp Killer, inside spicy tuna topped with shrimp and eel sauce. Nice chunks of spicy fresh tuna with plenty of flavor. Last up was the Salmon Lover roll inside out salmon with great spice, avocado and thinly sliced onion on top. Enjoyed all of this with a cold Sapporo. Great news for this place is they have an assortment of Japanese beer along with wine and saki. This place is an upscale joint and the price reflects it, The entire spread cost 99.00 plus tip but was worth it. Granted the average couple is not going to order as much and so the bill would be lower. Obviously the key here is fresh otherwise you won't survive and quantity does not make up for quality and for the experience it was quality. Place was clean including the bathroom and service was great! read more
