I'm going to say this is a repeatable offense...lol Well-rated sushi in Pennsylvania is probably not a "thing" so that's a good sign. Housed in historic downtown Harrisburg, this sushi restaurant clearly does 80% of its business as take out. Maybe a handful of sit down customers and a steady stream of deliveries going out the door. I had the veg/shrimp tempura. Eh. Wouldn't repeat that. Ii also had the coconut shrimp roll and the summer roll. Both were good. The coconut shrimp roll was tending to fall apart so I had to triage to get it in my mouth. lol challenge accepted! The summer roll was awesome. Great flavors. Not too heavy and definitely something I would have again. Service was fine. I sat at the sushi bar which was fine although, I could sit anywhere really. Front or back. The building has a bit of a "historic" smell to It not uncommon for old building that are retrofitted for restaurants that have strong smells like sushi. It's not bad, it's just unusual. read more

Miyako Sushi - Summer Roll on the right Coconut Shrimp Roll on the left - Sushi Bars Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Well, here I am again, sitting at my desk, constantly working and always trying to plan ahead. Never having fun, never going outside, all because I want to remain focused on something I plan to build--something really, really big that will hopefully change the world for the better. But like anyone else, I appreciate good, fresh food! Normally, I wait a day or two before coming up with something amazing for my food reviews. However, this particular review had to be written right away. You see, when I was younger, my grandfather taught me how to fish, and one of the most important things he taught me was patience. He also taught me how to recognize fresh fish, and over the years, I've learned to tell the difference between fish that's fresh and fish that's past its prime. Now, in my experience, cod and haddock are two fish that naturally have a stronger, fishier smell. However, I had neither of those in my sushi platter today! And no, it wasn't the sashimi that was the problem. It was actually the rolls themselves. As soon as I opened the container, all I could smell was fish. The odor was so overwhelming that it immediately ruined my appetite. Now, it wasn't necessarily the cuts of fish served with the platter. It was something about the fish used to make the rolls. From the smell alone, I had serious doubts about its freshness. As for my review, the presentation was great! I've ordered from this restaurant before, which is exactly why I decided to give it another try. Unfortunately, this time around, the rolls were a major disappointment. And since I don't want those rolls giving me a few extra rolls around my waist--or worse--I'm going to have to set them aside! However, I did enjoy the salad and, of course, the soup, especially since I'm finally starting to feel better. So, would I recommend this place? Probably not, at least not based on today's experience. It's disappointing because I've ordered here before and expected the same quality I previously enjoyed. But hey, one thing you can't always mess up is rice! So I guess it's rice, soup, and salad for me tonight. Sometimes the presentation can be beautiful, but if the freshness isn't there, the entire experience falls apart. read more

8/18/2026 WARNING - The food here is hit or miss, very inconsistent and mostly a miss! I've been disappointed with the food each time I've decided to try it again which has been about once a year, yet no more! Today my delivery order was virtually tasteless, meat was overcooked dry and tough and both dishes were made wrong and the incorrect sauce was included with the egg rolls. They do not care about quality trust me. This was one of the worst meals I ever tried to eat so it went in the trash. read more

I'm actually shocked by the number of positive reviews. First, the restaurant smells bad. Second the service is poor. Was here for lunch and was told to order at the counter as there was no table service. Third the atmosphere is lacking. Finally, the sushi presentation was good, the taste was a six out of 10. read more

Miyako Sushi - Sea singer and TNT rolls. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Not the most welcoming atmosphere, the staff is cold and distant, and the quality of fish is very much second-tier: what you'd expect at an all-you-can-eat buffet (which they don't offer by the way). Not what you'd expect at an expensive sushi restaurant. One really big red flag on this place: they have no shame about offering IMITATION CRAB as part of their menu. Imitation crab has NO CRAB IN IT. It is a cheap pressed-product of low quality fish catch, with food dye added. I wouldn't feed it to my cat. On the upside: they have a fully stocked bar. Almost any liquor you can think of, they have it. Come on down for a drink! read more

Strolling by I decided to walk in and try sushi in Harrisburg, I read the reviews and it's true this spot is very good. The basic rolls are $5, the chef keep is rolls tight. But the fish is tasty and fresh. I went with a basic spicy tuna and my favorite salmon skin roll...both were excellent. Service was excellent, and this place is a little dated...but the music being a jazzy and fun. read more

I've been here a few times and the food is consistently solid. This last time, unfortunately, my sushi was packaged right next to my hot soup, and just in the ten minute drive home, it was also nearly as hot as the soup! Still recommend, but suggest you check the packaging before you take it home, or ask for your soup to be in a separate bag. read more

Food took over 45min. The seating area was dirty. And the sushi itself was subpar. It was definitely not my favorite place to eat.

Ordered delivery on a Saturday night via their website. The fees were less than using Grubhub directly, and it's supported by door dash. I like that they offer 2 or 3 roll combinations that include a soup or a salad. We've never had sushi from here, so we ordered a variety of things. We got the following rolls: Atlantic Ocean, Sea king, Phoenix, Tropical inferno, Crab roll, Spicy crab roll, Boston roll, Spider roll, Snow crab, Fire crunch, Mr crab, and Pink panther roll. Our favorites were the Atlantic Ocean, sea king, and Phoenix roll. We didn't like the tropical inferno, spider, or Boston rolls. The Boston and spider roll were both mostly lettuce, which we've never experienced with these rolls at other sushi restaurants. We got a mix of miso soup and salads. We weren't fond of either one and could do without it next time. The sushi was nicely packaged for delivery and they labeled all of the rolls upon request. Would order again! read more

3-stars for decent price & mediocre service, rounded down to 2-Stars for the filthiest sushi bar I've seen in my lifetime--- please for the love of G-d clean this place from top to bottom it's worse than a Wuhan-Wet-Market, after-all you're serving RAW FISH! read more

Always a good meal with delicious sushi and Japanese food! I've been coming here for years, even before my yelp days, and never a bad experience. Through the pandemic, this restaurant has had delivery drivers and customers line-up outside with cars double parked in the street. If they're that busy, they're doing something right. I love the tuna sushi rolls because it's always so fresh. Chicken teriyaki is another go to for me and the sides of fried rice, soup, and salad complete that meal perfectly. Last night, I ordered online through their website and was glad to see I was only charged a $1.50 fee for using that service. Free would be better, but it was convenient enough to use. Once the pandemic is over, hopefully everyone can continue to enjoy inside dining and also order alcoholic drinks. read more

Miyako Sushi satisfies every single time. It is by far my favorite place to order take out from. The sushi is always flavorful and fresh. I also love their teriyaki dinners. I've had the teriyaki salmon, chicken, shrimp and steak. It comes with rice and veggies. For an up charge you can get fried rice instead of white rice. The small comes with enough food for two servings. I always have leftovers. My order usually consists of a sushi roll and a small teriyaki dinner. Even with the tip my delivery orders doesn't surpass $20. If you're looking for food that tastes good and is packaged with care for delivery you must give Miyako Sushi a try. read more

Miyako Sushi - Crunchy Shrimp Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

So one good thing about COVID is the number of places we have tried because of delivery. There are places I wouldn't have tried because of location, parking, convenience but with delivery it's fun to try completely new places. (There have been horror stories) Anyway back to the review, I was in the mood for teriyaki chicken and we found this place. The sushi looked fantastic by the way, though we didn't try it this time. My wife got hibachi steak and I got chicken teriyaki. It was so good! The onions and broccoli were fantastic. I didn't even realize it came with a ginger salad and a miso soup. We only could eat about 1/2 each and as leftovers it was very good too. Everything was packaged great for delivery too. I would definitely try it again. read more

Didn't eat in. Ordered food to go. Sushi was above average! Tasted great and everything was really fresh. When I did my pickup restaurant looked really nice inside. Will definitely be bringing my family back to dine in. read more

It was pretty deplorable. The chicken was rubbery beyond belief, and the teriyaki sauce was very sweet. It was also very thick. What happened?! It used to be very good, and they seem to have substituted the old sauce for this sludge. read more

Really enjoyed the lunch specials at this modestly-sized location tucked in among restaurants and bars. The miso soup and clear soup both have a nice flavor and texture, and the rolls are always fresh and tasteful. The menu is fairly standard fare - California Rolls, tuna, crab, yellowtail, etc. But you honestly can't beat the quality/price dynamic. I've paid significantly more for rolls that weren't as good as these. Again, nothing exotic that is going to redefine how you view Japanese food, but an excellent option for lunch (under $15) or an early dinner. If sushi isn't your thing, there are plenty of Bento Box options (I recommend the beef), tempura choices or hibachi options - all excellent values for the price point. The service is polite and approachable. They're prompt, even when busier, and incredibly efficient with takeout. Arguably one of the easiest to recommend value propositions in the area. read more

Best sushi in Harrisburg. Fresh and flavorful! Great atmosphere and service. Highly recommended!!!

Update: This is the best local sushi. I was wanting to give this place another try. With my first experience, the issue was with the service not the sushi. Granted, it was 12:30 on a Saturday, during Covid-19. So, I tried it again & wow! I ordered two of the special combos, Maki and section A, both with salads and everything was amazing. I order the Yum Yum & the spider roll and they were both awesome. All this delicious, quality sushi for only $23! Also, the service was great. They said only 15 minutes for the food. It was waiting for me when I got there, packaged nicely, & the worker that greeted me was very kind. This place is top of my list. Give it a try. read more

I order takeout here often and my order is always on time, correct, delicious and reasonably priced. Staff is friendly as well!

The sushi is always great, the place just has an odd smell in the front, the customer service is great, just the price of extra sauces isn't my thing. read more

They don't have service/servers. Half of it is serve yourself. The food comes out in disposable food packages. It's like getting food at a hospital. But the sushi is still good. But they need to find a server. read more

Maybe they are too use to being a takeout sushi shop to remember about customer service. I was an eat in customer is a completely empty restaurant. Being the only one I was ignored, my order came up and I waited. BTW. My opinion is banana doesn't work in sushi. read more

02/2021 Miyako Sushi delivered a delicious hibachi style meal right to our living room! It was an impressive spread of food. I had hibachi steak & my husband had the teriyaki chicken. They came with ginger salads & miso soups. I was thrilled with the quality & taste. There was plenty for a leftover meal. I look forward to ordering from Miyako Sushi again. read more

Great food! Carry out, we had a tuna roll, salmon roll, gyoza and chicken teriyaki. Excellent. All very good.

Overview: My favorite place to get sushi in the Harrisburg area! Food: Miyako's menu consists of sushi, some stir-fry dishes, and noodle soups. I absolutely love their sushi, especially because you can get brown rice as an option. Their rolls have always been well-made, fresh, and very tasty! I also like that they don't skimp on the fillings. I have also had their udon soup. It's a lightly flavored broth that's perfect on a cold day. Recommend: Spicy Salmon Roll Valentine Roll Atmosphere: Miyako is a smaller restaurant in downtown Harrisburg. Parking is street-only, which is a bit of a pain, but they do participate in door dash and have 15 minute free parking if you're just picking up. Service: Service here is excellent. My co-workers and I order from Miyako regularly and even with larger orders, they have always been quick and accurate. read more

Miyako Sushi - Three roll take out special-- spicy shrimp, shrimp avocado, and spicy salmon. All made with brown rice. Delicious. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

The sushi here was excellent. We went as a couple for a Friday night dinner, no one else was dining in, but it looked like they were doing a very busy take out business. We sat at the sushi bar and ordered a selection of rolls along with the octopus salad appetizer. Everything was delicious and well prepared. This place really hit the mark with the sushi. The sushi bar was comfortable, our choices for seating were a side table or the bar- looks like they had seating in the back but they didn't have it open. Would definitely recommend for some good food! (Plus they had my favorite cold draft sake - hakutsuru!) read more

We went for lunch today. I had the Spider Roll and Spicy Salmon roll. The sushi was amazing. One of the best places around.

AMBIANCE: Your typical sushi place with a sushi bar and small tables. Looks to be a lengthy restaurant with more tables in the back. Clean and dimly lit for a romantic vibe. Interesting choice of music. While I was there it was on a 90s playlist which I'm not complaining about, but for a sushi restaurant?! LOCATION: Right in the thick of downtown Harrisburg. It's by tons of other non sushi restaurants. There's not very much competition in the area for Asian cuisine in general. Street parking. Kind of hard to see if you aren't looking for it. Didn't stand out when looking down the street. SERVICE: Quick service, it was just me and another couple at the restaurant at 6pm on a weekday. FOOD: I ordered the pork gyoza and chicken ramen. I was craving some hot soup and this was the closest choice. So I wasn't expecting much for a sushi place. And when the food did come out, indeed it was just water for broth, but at least it was a good amount of noodles and veggies and chicken. The chicken itself wasn't seasoned and it was rubbery. The gyoza seems to have come from a pre made bag and was just flash fried. Definitely wasn't handmade or close to it. Again, these were kind of expected, but I can't fault them because they don't specialize in those things. Unfortunately, I can only judge what I try. If they don't make good entrees, they shouldn't put it on the menu. PRICING: Spendier than I would have wanted for these items. Most of the items on their menu was over priced actually. read more

We ate at Miyako for dinner ahead of a concert at Riverfront Park. It's an easy 10 minute walk. We discovered that the front of the restaurant near the sushi bar is it typical seated-service experience. If you choose to sit in the back, it's a walk-up counter experience where you place your order at the register and receive it in a self-serve take away. That is the perfect opportunity for big parties to have tables, as the front is small. The service is very good and all staff are still wearing masks which we felt very comfortable with. The food was delicious and served in these cute takeout containers which made it really fun for dining. The portions are good and the prices are great. This is quality sushi, hand-made by the sushi chefs at the sushi bar to order. A+ read more

Went to Miyako today at around 4:00 pm. Place only had two other patrons probably due to the time of day. Establishment was clean and brightly lit, had a sushi bar and seating in the back of the restaurant through a hall. Waiter was friendly and stopped by my table often. I ordered the Nabeyaki soup with Udon noodles. The soup is entree sized and traditionally comes out piping hot, so don't order this if you are in a hurry! Plenty of noodles and chicken, I would have liked more vegetables, the broth was flavorful. All in $14.79, water to drink. Good choice on a cold day! read more

My favorite sushi in the area. They have soooo many options which is really fun. They also have great mix and match deals, order 2/3 rolls from a category and receive a discounted price. Ate at the restaurant twice, decent atmosphere but nothing special. My first time I was a bit disappointed with our rolls, a few had mango in the ingredients and the mango was VERY underripe, inedible. Since then we have ordered 8+ times and have never had any other issues! read more

Food was good, service was a mess. Our waitress didn't speak English very well and was incredibly hard to understand. When the main course did come out, it was 10 mins apart for each person at the table. It was crazy! They can't handle big parties. read more

I was at JB Lovedrafts last Saturday, and when the employees at Miyako Sushi were taking the trash out at 11 PM, I saw one of them holding his phone in a way that suggests that he was taking pictures and/or video of JB Lovedrafts' customers sitting at the picnic tables out front. I'm sorry, but this is harassment, and I am calling upon the citizens of Harrisburg to boycott Miyako Sushi. read more

Best sushi in the Harrisburg area! They are a little pricey, but so worth it! Very fresh ingredients, delicious sushi and I've always had outstanding service. My favorites are the Simply Miyako (spicy tuna and mango topped with avocado and spicy mayo), Shaky Dog (coconut shrimp, spicy snow crab and sweet soy sauce), Spider Roll ( soft shell crab, cumber, lettuce and masago) and the Fire House Roll (spicy salmon, avocado, cilantro, topped with salmon and jalapeno with sriracha on top). We stopped in during the pandemic and our food was promptly ready to be picked up! Will be returning for more sushi! read more

Consistently hits the mark. I've eaten here about 8 times now. The quality of this sushi competes with offerings in any major city--Philadelphia, New York, Miami. In some cases, its even better. I've never had a negative experience and the chef's specials really encourage me to try the new and unique rolls that I've never seen any where else. For instance, I've never seen coconut shrimp roll is new for me, but it is now one of my favorites. SOOOOOOOO GOOOD!!! read more

The sushi here is pretty good. Presentation is also good as well. I tried sushi here before and this time tried there combination fried rice. Was pretty average but not bad. I haven't had a bad experience here just okay. read more
