Amazing atmosphere, wonderful food, excellent service. It feels like eating in a museum with its rock n roll theme. Awesome music playing too. The sushi is to die for. Extremely accommodating.

Spicy crunchy shrimp roll
Jenifer D.

Tucked into the heart of downtown Birmingham, Rock & Roll Sushi brings bold flavors and a fun vibe, but be warned: parking can be a bit of a gamble. With only street parking available, you're at the mercy of downtown traffic and meter luck--but if you can snag a spot, it's worth it for a casual sushi fix with some standout moments. My friend went with the Spicy Shrimp Roll, which delivered on both heat and portion size. The pieces were huge--almost too generous, as each bite was a structural challenge. Still, the flavors were on point, and the freshness of the shrimp came through with a satisfying kick. I ordered the Appetizer Sampler, which was a mixed bag. The jalapeño poppers were surprisingly good--crispy on the outside, spicy and creamy on the inside, with a bonus touch of crab meat that elevated them. The egg rolls, however, missed the mark completely. They had a gamey or just "off" flavor that made them hard to enjoy. On the flip side, the crispy crab wontons were easily the star of the night--perfectly crunchy with a spicy, creamy center that had me wishing the whole sampler was just a basket of those. The dumplings were fine--not memorable, but decent if you're craving something savory and warm. Final Thoughts: Rock & Roll Sushi isn't a place for delicate, traditional sushi--this is big, bold, American-style sushi with a rock vibe and some serious hits (and a couple of misses). Just come hungry, bring patience for parking, and whatever you do--don't skip the crab wontons.

Spicy Crawfish Roll

Wanted lunch somewhere close after a meeting I had at the hospital and came here. Walking distance from UAB. Lots of good seats and drink specials daily. I got the spicy crawfish roll and it was great! Service was always fast. Made for the perfect lunch break.

Definitely rockin! Blazer Roll is incredible! Avocado, Yellowtail, sweet chili sauce, jalapeño, spicy mayo, Sriracha and tobiko on top with crab, cucumber, and cream cheese inside. Wow. Texture and flavor combo is amazing! Rockin music with music videos on the TVs brings me back to the good ole 90's. Thank you, nostalgia. Parking on the street is easy. Service is fast and friendly. I'll be back

We really enjoyed our lunch here! The service was excellent and the food came out fast. It really exceeded my expectations.

Volcano Roll

I'm going to be honest and say I was not expecting to enjoy this food the way I did. When I think of Birmingham I don't think excellent sushi, but this was so good. I'm a sucker for hibachi style food so I had to try the fried rice etc - BOMB!

Fresh salmon inside topped with spicy Mayo and "eel sauce is soy sauce, white sugar,Japanese sweet wine"

This restaurant is definitely on the Roll! Originated in Mobile Alabama with locations in Florida,Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Tennessee. I've only Rocked with the one in Birmingham and Pensacola. The whole Rock N Roll theme is cool from the decor to the name of the menu options. It's definitely a vibe. This eatery features American-style sushi products that set them apart from other sushi restaurants. There also is a full bar making them perfect for enjoying a night out with friends. The salmon rolls I had definitely tasted fresh with a nice kick with the sriracha and Mayo drizzle, and the shrimp tempura were dy-na-mite with a nice crisp. The real highlight was the hall of fame golden brownies and vanilla ice cream dessert. Wow I was hyped! It definitely was delicious, its a perfect creamy gooey caramel chocolatey goodness. This location is close proximity to UAB hospital. The only things is parking sucks during afternoon hours. But that shouldn't stop you from coming to join the party. I felt like a *Rock Star*

I'm wondering if it was my fault for not ordering hibachi from the demonstration grill, but I was thinking since the restaurant was empty I was going it a service ordering from a table, but my soup and salad came out after my hibachi meal. I think the waiter forgot about it because I had to so if it was still coming. When it did come, the soup looked like mostly water (see photos) and the salad was over drenched in dressing. I've never seen that much dressing in a salad my entire life. The meat wasn't hot but the fried rice really saved the day. It was salty, but I prefer mine that way. I like the location of this place so I'm hoping that next visit will be different.

Somehow yes again. Walking in feels like the culinary version of a personality test having a nervous breakdown. The good news is the sushi side of this identity crisis absolutely works. The specialty rolls were creative without crossing into "we put Hot Cheetos and gummy bears on this one" territory. Big flavors, fresh ingredients, and combinations that actually made sense. The nigiri was also excellent. Fresh fish, nicely sliced, clean flavor. No complaints there at all. Then the ramen arrived and apparently the seasoning chef had already gone home for the evening. The broth tasted like somebody whispered "tonkotsu" into a pot of warm water and hoped for the best. It desperately needed salt, MSG, anything that would make it wake up and realize it had responsibilities. Not offensive. Just aggressively average. And then there was the atmosphere. Now to be fair, this was not the restaurant's fault. They got ambushed by what appeared to be an entire youth baseball league celebrating the end of the season. Imagine trying to enjoy sushi while sitting inside a Chuck E. Cheese hostage situation. Kids running everywhere. Screaming. Yelling. One child may have briefly achieved low Earth orbit near the hostess stand. Meanwhile the parents reacted to this chaos the same way people react to a car alarm in a parking lot. Complete indifference. The staff honestly handled it as well as they could. Tuesday is apparently kids special night, so consider this less of a complaint and more of a public service announcement. If you're looking for a quiet dinner, maybe don't roll in during Little League victory parade hours. That said, the sushi was good enough and the restaurant handled the chaos with enough grace that I'm rounding up to four stars. Just know what you're walking into. Come for the sushi. Lower expectations slightly for the ramen. And maybe bring noise-canceling headphones if it's Tuesday night.

Hibachi-style dinners are served from the kitchen rather than cooked in front of you, for a more peaceful dining experience. Standard offerings include steak, chicken, salmon, shrimp, scallops, and lobster entrees or combinations thereof, served with fried rice, vegetables, and either soup or salad. The fried rice has a good flavor that doesn't require the addition of yum-yum sauce. The sashimi is pretty good. The sushi rolls are decent too. I've also enjoyed the tempura and the katsu here. The service is usually quick and always courteous. The outdoor seating option is nice when it's not too hot, and not something commonly found at Asian restaurants around here.

I immediately knew that I was going to be happy with my decision to eat here. I started off with the Shrimp gyozas. Since most gyozas are made with pork, I cannot remember eating shrimp gyozas before, and these were phenomenal. I highly recommend that you give them a try. I was pretty hungry, so I decided to order the Sashimi Deluxe dinner. 21 pieces of sashimi seemed pretty ambitious. If I had known how thick the sushi was going to be, I probably would've gone for a smaller dinner, but I'm glad that I didn't know because it was amazing. As for dessert, I always go with Red Bean ice cream. For those of you who have never tried red bean ice cream - you have GOT to try it. I know what you're thinking...red beans and ice cream do not go together, right? Well, you are absolutely WRONG! I don't know what breed of red beans go into this delicious dessert, but it is amazing and incredibly refreshing. Do yourself a favor and drive directly to Samurai Japan...eat until you're totally full...and then order the red beans ice cream anyway. You'll thank me later!

Honestly, I'm wondering why the shrimp momos aren't offered as an appetizer option alongside the turkey and pork because they definitely deserve a spot on the menu! I was especially glad we decided to dine earlier because the restaurant started getting crowded and more lively shortly after we placed our appetizer order. The food was delicious, and I'm already looking forward to returning to try more items on the menu and sitting at the sushi bar. Parking is street parking, so it can definitely be a challenge, but I'd say it's worth it! Overall, a great dining experience, and I highly recommend checking them out!

Unfortunately, her attitude and treatment toward me have been consistently rude and unprofessional. I have noticed a pattern in the way she interacts with African American customers, and it has left me questioning whether her behavior toward me is racially motivated. She rarely makes eye contact when I am speaking or placing my order, walks away while I am still talking, and carelessly places my food on the table on the opposite side of where I am sitting instead of serving me directly. These may seem like small things individually, but when they happen repeatedly, they create an uncomfortable and disrespectful dining experience. Today was the final straw. I witnessed her speaking to another waiter and clearly read her lips as she indicated that she did not want to wait on me. Immediately afterward, they all turned around and looked in my direction. I found this behavior extremely disrespectful, embarrassing, and completely unacceptable. I have always entered your establishment with kindness and respect. I have genuinely tried to understand why I continue to receive this type of treatment from her, but after four separate experiences, I can no longer overlook the pattern. I am a faithful customer because I genuinely enjoy your food, but good food does not excuse poor customer service or make it acceptable for a paying customer to be treated as though they do not matter. I spend my hard-earned money at your establishment and expect to be treated with the same courtesy, respect, and professionalism as any other customer. No one should have to question whether they are being treated differently because of their race when simply trying to enjoy a meal. Unfortunately, I will not be returning. I hope management takes this complaint seriously, looks into these repeated concerns, and addresses the behavior of the employee involved. Customers should feel welcomed and respected, not dismissed, embarrassed, or made to feel unwelcome. This experience has left a lasting negative impression, and I believe management needs to be aware of what is happening in its establishment.
