The half price on sushi is a deal you can't beat. That is probably why we went crazy on it. Unfortunately, the quality was barely above that of a Chinese buffet. The star of the show was the Jjampong which was huge and ample in seafood. The Tangsuyuk Pork was amazing and delicious. Those two dishes are worth checking out and such a great deal! We shouldn't have ordered the sushi because it was just too much food. Stop in and try the Korean inspired read more

I came here last Friday with a friend and ended up with food poisoning. My friend ordered something different so he was fine, but about 15 hours after eating I was vomiting over the course of 6 hours. I wasn't certain it was food poisoning or if I was coming down with a stomach bug until my boyfriend (whom I took a few pieces of my leftover sushi to) came down with the same symptoms the next day. That's when I knew it was because of the sushi! Luckily it was only a 24 hour sickness, but I was vomiting, had a fever, in bed, the works. It was not a fun time. Very disappointed. read more

Mr. Sushi - Spicy Tuna - Sushi Bars Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

This place was just OK! Nothing spectacular or nothing to brag about. It smelled so bad of backed up sewage that we almost didn't even eat here. However, after a 17hr drive from Texas and by this being one of the only few spots still open after 10p when we made it we basically had no other choice. The cooks or "chefs" were behind the sushi counter changing clothes. I caught one with his shirt completely off. The waitresses were mediocre. The sushi roll was ok. You could tell that it was rolled by an amateur as the rice and paper was misaligned. The seafood Phó was just ok frozen calamari and shrimp, one mussel and a lot of broth the combo rice was greasy. They charge you for eel sauce and saracha hot sauce. The only good thing was their happy hour and the fact that they only serve low sodium soy sauce. read more

I really do like this place. The sushi is solid. I really like the soup and udon noodle dish with seafood called Jamapeong (sp). It reminds me of hot pepper soup. It's spicy, pipping hot and well seasoned. But beware, b/c of its location, it can get crowded during the late evening. Staff can also be dismissive towards the none college crowd during evenings. I have also gone in at opening and been completely ignored. read more

So glad my boyfriend & I finally tried this sushi place out! You cannot beat their prices. All sushi rolls are half-off when you dine in, plus specials on drinks daily. Although some of the rolls could have been rolled more tightly, they were all delicious!! We can't say more good things about the Sunday Morning roll!!! It's deep fried, and oh so yummy! We will definitely be back to try more rolls and take advantage of the awesome prices! Our waiter was also very kind & had a great energy. We can't stop raving about the sushi. Plus did I mention, we were so full! read more

Mr. Sushi - Top to bottom: Yum Yum Roll, California Roll, Sunday Morning - Sushi Bars Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

the food is good from what I have ordered off the menu I will say. However the menu gives false information and prices to us as clientele of this establishment. The fried rice says $10 and each protein that is EXTRA is + $2, alrighty cool i didn't want extra protein so $10, plus tax it is. Meanwhile I was Charged $12 already adding the extra $2, because apparently that is if you want protein regardless it is being added. With the menu being unable to be changed because the owner "doesn't want to pay $600" for their establishment menu to be changed to understanding for the customers... come on now $600 I've served for a restaurant there are ways to get it changed. read more

I love the sushi here compared to the other restaurants in the area. Really the food is 5/5 stars but during my most recent experience service was fairly weak. Very slow to take our drink order and it wasn't even a busy night with an adequate amount of servers. When we did finally get to order our food the server didn't know the menu well at all and I'm pretty sure I got the wrong meal. Lighting this go round was also terrible, pretty dark in the area we sat. I hear they have pretty great drink deals but I haven't taken advantage of those yet but I'm pretty disappointed in my last visit. I've been here several times and am usually pretty happy with everything so I will give them the benefit of the doubt and update my review next time we go read more

Thank you Mr. Sushi for hooking me up with my first Bimbimbop. I stayed away from it because it's so friggin' trendy and it was kind of annoying to listen to people rave over something I have never seen my Korean friends prepare, eat or recommend. I decided it was time to try it. After years of dating a Korean woman, I had never had it and she cooked EVERYDAY. ....if that puts things in perspective. It was good but just a fancy salad really, with beef instead of chicken and a sauce instead of a dressing. With that said, I was 100% satisfied and the portion was HUGE. Definitely caught me of guard there. Overall, I think it tasted fresh and all the ingredients seemed to be really good quality. I see how people get so excited about it. I'd be interested in tasting other items on the menu to get a better sense of the place. Not so humbly submitted, Michael C. read more

Mr. Sushi - Bibbimbop.. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

The deal does not get any better than Mr. Sushi. The sushi is always 1/2 when you dine in and they have good drink deals throughout the week. Given the price of the sushi, this is not the most high-quality sushi you are going to get. However, you eat here because you're a college student on a budget who loves sushi rolls. I love Mr. Sushi because I can actually afford it AND they are adventurous. They have one of the most extensive sushi roll selection I have seen. I love bringing friends here because I know that everyone will find something that they will enjoy. I don't have a favorite roll yet, but I haven't had a roll that has disappointed me. If you're not in a sushi mood, they also have other Asian dishes on their menu. Overall thoughts: Try it! The deal is unbeatable. :) read more

I love Mr. Sushi... Like no really, I. LOVE. Mr. Sushi.... But the manager Ethan is extremely rude. If you're not a young college girl, he litetally has no interest in even acknowledging that you're in the establishment. Total disgrace. I'll still come here, that's the sad part. The servers are nice, the food is amazing... The weirdest part is that he's been here on every occasion that I've been here! I've even met the owner on previous visits in this managers presence! The owner is such a great guy! So baffled... read more

I was really hoping to like this place and during our meal we kept wanting to make excuses for them, but when it comes down to it my experience here was just not good. The one thing this place has going for it is the atmosphere. It's dark and dim lit. Decked out in green and chocolate espresso finishes. The music is tranquil and the space is inviting, and also brand new. Our server was smiley and friendly whenever she did come around, but my guess is that she has never waited tables in her life. There were only two servers for the entire restaurant and they were awful. When our food came we didn't even have plates and silverware and our appetizer eventually got cold. She also never checked back to see if we needed anything (which we often did since nothing was on the table for us to start with. No sushi menu and soy sauce was empty) I felt so annoyed and this added to the demise of our experience. It is the job of the restaurant owner/manager to make sure that they have enough staff and that they are well trained. Now onto the food. We ordered the "jalapeño popper" style tempura to start. Since we did not have any utensils it eventually got cold and was not good. The jalapeño was pretty much raw and had an unpleasant texture. For sushi, we ordered: - hot mamma: (Sounded good in theory -- a mixture of three fish with srirracha, red chili pasta, and scallions. But that pre made mixture of mush was the only thing in the roll and it was horrifying) - spicy shrimp: our favorite because well, how can you screw this up? - spicy tuna: Again mush, no freshness and barely and flavor or texture. - sunday morning roll: the flavors were good, but the way it was cut made it difficult to eat. We were extremely disappointed in the sushi and will not go back. The quality of ingredients here are one of the lowest I have experienced in the plethora of Cincinnati sushi joints and for some reason the raw rolls were not served chilled. They were almost warm and it was very unpleasant. I will add that they were presented beautifully, the chef does have some nice knife skillzz. Reliving this experience makes me want to wake up from a bad dream. And just to wrap things up nicely here, if you have 'HALF PRICE SUSHI ALL DAY EVERY DAY' you just have marked up sushi that is now regularly priced/cheap sushi. Stop saying that! End rant. read more

Let me be clear, the ONLY reason this place doesn't get 5-stars is because I have a favorite sushi spot in the area...but damn this place is a close second. Close. Great sushi, amazing prices, and the young folks who manage the place are crazy-kind. I met friends for dinner last night, and we were having a great time talking and carrying on...only to have the host come over and APOLOGIZE for having taken so long to service us. Truly, we hadn't even noticed, but thought it was great that HE did. To make it even better, he apologized with BOOZE. That's right, the entire table got a free round. Seriously? If you didn't already know, this place has an amazing every day special: 50% off ALL sushi. Every day, all day. The only catch is that you have to eat in, which is easy enough to do in such an attractive restaurant. Even if you don't eat in, Mr. Sushi will give you a 20% discount on ALL sushi. I know, I know, it's hard to imagine how they stay in business giving away booze and sushi. I'm sure it's because people like me will keep going back for more! read more

Come here pretty often. 1/2 price sushi and Thursday 1/2 price drinks. Tried the Godzilla roll tonight it's amazing

I have visited Mr. Sushi several times, and I have mixing feelings toward this sushi restaurant. I like their menu because they serve a variety of foods more than sushi, including a wide choices of Korean dishes (bibimbap, bulgogi, kimchi and tofu hotpot, etc). However, the consistency of the food they serve has been a problem for me. At this restaurant, sometimes I got pretty bad quality of sushi, and sometimes I had decent sushi. After several visits of this restaurant, I have this conclusion: if you want to have better quality sushi here, come here for dinner. I have had sushi for lunch at this restaurant several times, and almost every time I got bad sushi--dry and old sushi rice with kinda stale fish (warm and not really fresh sashimi). I cannot help but feel that they use leftover sushi rice from previous nights to make sushi during lunch time the next day!? I also had sushi here for dinner too, and surprisingly, the quality of the sushi seem much better. Is it because they are much busier during dinner time, so the ingredients they use are much fresher? As for the service, I never had bad experience here. Most of the servers are young (probably UC students). They work hard and are pretty attentive. I have never been a fan of 1/2 price sushi, which has been popular in Cincinnati. For me, sushi is ALL about super fresh fish and well-cooked sushi rice. I would rather pay an original price and get really good sushi. I hope this restaurant can pay more attention to the quality control of their sushi. read more

Okay teriyaki bento. Value for money tho i would go back if I want a cheap solid meal

I've yet to try an outstanding sushi restaurant in Cincinnati because well, we are in Cincinnati and I'm pretty sure high quality sushi-grade fish is hard to come by in Ohio.. so yes, their sushi is just about as good as the other nearby sushi joints. However, I am basing my review off of their hot food.. and their kimchi jigae (kimchi soup) is soooo delicious and their hot stone bibimbap never disappoints, either. Their meal portions are pretty large, which make the prices very reasonable. The last time I went, the waitress even offered us complimentary kimchi and pickled radish and was also very helpful throughout our meal. I know there are several negative reviews on the sushi, but at least give the Korean food a chance if you are a fan of Korean cuisine. read more

We went here during Winter break for UC and shortly after it opened. While our waitress was friendly, she wasn't very knowledgable about the menu. The restaurant wasn't crowded, but there were a few small groups and one large group. Unfortunately, our order seemed to take longer than necessary due to being behind the large group (10). We had a couple appetizers, some sushi, a Korean dish, and a Japanese dish. The tempura calamari was good, but not great (no legs) and the other appetizer was unmemorable as I can't remember what it was. The sushi was good, but on the expensive side. The yaki soba with chicken was delicious with plenty of chicken. The hot stone bowl bibimbap was great, but there was not a lot of beef. Overall, the food was above average, but it seemed rather expensive for a Clifton/UC restaurant. read more

Mr. Sushi is another Clifton restaurant to let me down for a variety of reasons. First, the place is not equipped to handle groups. With a party of eight, we were seated in a side room away from the main booths and tables (I think the designated private dining area). This area was undecorated and contained a few tables and random chairs. Half of it was empty. To make matters worse, it was freezing. We wore our winter coats throughout dinner but everyone was still shivering. It makes me think that the room was originally built to be storage for the vendor versus a place for customers. Second, the food was disappointing. I am not a big sushi person, so when visiting Asian restaurants, I tend to order off the entrée menu. At Mr. Sushi, I ordered a Grilled Chicken Teriyaki Salad and was served a bowl of originally bagged, chopped lettuce with a cold, thinly sliced grilled chicken on top and a cup of teriyaki sauce on the side. Altogether, the presentation looked boring, sad, and completely unappetizing. It was also way overpriced at $8. Finally, the service is just not there. Our party was on a tight schedule, which we communicated to our server prior to ordering. Our food took around 20 minutes to come, and when it was served, we asked for our checks and paid. Our server, however, disappeared after collecting our bills and cash/cards, and did not return for another 20 minutes. Without any more flexibility in our schedule to wait for her to come back, we got up and flagged her down to get our receipts. If visiting with a smaller group and sticking to the sushi menu, I think Mr. Sushi would be a completely different experience for some, but I am doubtful I will attempt to revisit it anytime soon. read more

Mr. Sushi - The Grilled Chicken Teriyaki Salad - super disappointing. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

This location is my go to! Sushi is always good, for half price! It is a bit lacking in cleanliness and spilled water on floor or table all the time. BUT the food is good. The Korean dishes are also very flavorful and nomz-y as well. They can be bit slow when its busy, but again all that matters is consistency and the food! Always satisfied when I eat here! Their Kimchi Ji Ge is superb good! I never get that anywhere because its a disappointment but not here! This place was the first time I tried the sweet potato roll, and it was mind blowing good! The Citrus Salmon roll is my all time fave. The thinly cut lemons really compliment the salmon and and the sushi rice. They don't even cheat you with the amount on the inside of the rolls--except some of the end pieces. Sushi isn't totally tight all the time, but thats only when their busy. Quality goes down when they get busy. Pick and choose when to go in. read more

Love this place, always hit them up for lunch, can be a little pricey but welcome to sushi.

I wasn't sure if it was a sushi bar or a strip bar. The waitress didn't wear any underwear and had a low cut top too.

I went on a Saturday night when two of my friends were in town. We enjoyed good sushi and the rest of our meals were relatively good also, but I wouldn't say it was the best sushi that I've had. Our waitress was great, but the ambience was quite chaotic. The floor under our table and the one behind us was extremely wet the whole time, which was ideal. It's definitely worth a shot on a quieter night to enjoy time with friends if you aren't part of the college crowd. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. I ordered from Mr. Sushi through Door Dash and I had issues with my order. I order chicken and shrimp fried rice. I paid for extra yum yum sauce and chicken to my fried rice. First off, I had as much chicken as I would normally get and barely any shrimp. It comes with a side salad and I received no dressing (it comes with a ginger dressing) and lastly my yum yum sauce was missing. Now you would think that my main complaint would be the lack of meat and sauce I paid extra for and yes, I wasn't happy about that BUT the problem came from the Manager I spoke with. He was rude and dismissive. Although he could not verify I received the "right" amount of chicken, he insisted that what I received was what I paid for and he was sorry that I didn't receive my yum yum sauce but I can have door dash refund me the money. Basically not taking responsibility for poor quality of the food and fact they sent an order out the door incorrectly but wanting me to deal with Door Dash I was not trying to get a free dinner, I just wanted the meal I paid for and nothing more. He proceeded to talk over me and when I asserted my self not as the customer is always right, but dude, your being rude to a paying customer, he proceeded to dismiss my concerns. At that point, I cut him off and asked for contact information for someone above him. He proceeded to rant and refuse info stating he was the highest person I could talk to and then hung up. Well he's not and I was able to find the owner's info. Suffice it to say, all this was relayed to owner via email and then some. BTW, this isn't my first time being dissatisfied with this location. For some reason, restaurant near UC campus tend to focus less on quality of service and food. This was the first time I tried to get issue resolved and I ended up wasting my time. I will never order from Clifton location again. If you have to Mr. Sushi, I suggest you just deal with one downtown. They are awesome! read more

I didn't have high expectations for Mr. Sushi, however, their stir fry bowls, teriyaki bowls and my Tengsuyuk Bowl was very pleasant and quick to finish. I was interested in the Air-force Roll because I do enjoy occasionally some Fried and saucy rolls, however my party wanted only something fast and doable for lunch. I did enjoy the fast ambiance and quick service. Nothing too exciting but this is somewhere where you come and go. Lunch is ideal.

I enjoyed this place quite a bit. I am a sucker for Cloud Nine's half price deal, and was pleased to find yet another half off dine in option. I got the miso soup (tasty), the seaweed salad (average, but still good), and then the avocado roll with asparagus and the sweet potato roll. The husband got the double dragon. Mine was delicious and exactly as I always get it. The double dragon roll is actually two separate rolls on the same plate, and the hubs was a little disappointed. He said that it was good, but he wouldn't order it again. The price was awesome, the service was fast, and if you go during non peak hours, the place is practically a ghost town. We were in and out on a Sunday in about 40 minutes. read more

I never leave negative reviews but I would not return. Sushi was warm and did not seem fresh. Rice dish was so spicy that it overwhelmed any other flavors, and we are fine with spicy dishes. Service was fine but the food was too expensive, especially when we walked away leaving about 70% still on the plate. read more

I've tried giving them chances time and time again. Tonight I finally learned my lesson. Husband and I came and were seated around 5:20pm to a half empty restaurant. Our waitress Mary took our order (1 green tea, 1 Sprite, 2 sweet potato rolls and 2 vegetable rolls) and we waited 20min to get our order. She brought our drinks first but never brought the sweetener out for the tea. She eventually came back with a small dish of SweetnLow and Equal no sugar in sight. Our food came and I was instantly turned off. She only put in one order of vegetable rolls for me, not the two I'd originally requested. Not only that but the vegetable roll was missing more ingredients than usual and was warm. Long story short, only half of my rolls were made semi correct. The remainder was a rice roll filled with slimey avocado and cucumber. When the waitress finally came back to check on us, my husband told her I didn't like my food. There was no offer to make it better, not that I even wanted one at this point. Ugh, last week of classes and I just wanted to enjoy a nice meal before retreating back to the library. Oh well, Drunken Bento will have to be my go to replacement until I can find other places. I will not be back. read more

Mr. Sushi - Airforce Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

A few months back, we stopped here for dinner after going to the Cincinnati zoo, like we normally do after going to the zoo. Hubby ordered chicken Bibimbop. He had such horrible food poisoning that night and the next day, he ended up in the Emergency room at Mercy Anderson. The vomiting was so bad that he was getting dangerously low on potassium. I called the Cincinnati health dept. They went out for an investigation. I read the report online and they hade numerous violations including handling raw meat over prepared foods. I cringe every time I drive past there. it's unfortunate bec/ it had been a regular place for us. In reality, food poisoning probably doesn't happen that often there, but I would suggest that you stick to cooked foods that come out steaming hot. Although Bibimbop is "cooked", it's more like an assembled food that has been previously cooked. So beware. read more

This is a review of their lunch, as I have not been there for dinner yet. I had the Spicy Chicken Bento Box. It came out hot and great and WAY bigger than I expected! You do not need to order anything else with it... truly it is enormous! It came with the chicken, rice, salad with that great spicy Asian dressing, 4 pieces of a spicy tuna roll, a large chicken wing, a couple pieces of tempura veggies and a piece of tempura shrimp. It was tons of food and well worth the cost! I also ordered (before i knew how big my entree was going to be) a spicy tuna roll. It is a pretty typical roll and had a good amount of spice to it, which is not always the case. Their sushi is always half price, which sometimes can be scary, but everything seemed to be fresh and I will be coming back to try more of their rolls. Overall, I thought this was a great place for lunch and it was very easy to get in and out in a reasonable amount of time. Reasonable Prices - above average food - 3 stars in my book. read more
