This is the best Rock N Roll Sushi I've been to. Everything comes out perfect every time. Lauren and Treasha are great at running the restaurant and the best bartenders! The music is never too loud, and the lighting is perfect. #1 Rock N Roll in Alabama read more

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. read more

My experience was phenomenal at this restaurant. Sarah greeted me and was so helpful when I told her it was my first time eating there. The menu is extensive, so she really helped me narrow it down according to my flavor palette and made great recommendations. The ramen bowl s are filling and delicious. For dessert, you must try the fried brownies! Delicious! read more

This place is trash. Sushi had gone bad. Was definitely sitting out all day. Everything tasted terrible. They tried to make the awful flavor with their sauces that are nothing but salt. Will not be going back. Plenty of better Sushi places in Birmingham! read more

ROCK N ROLL SUSHI WILL PRESS CHARGES IF YOU ASK FOR A REFUND...We were eating at Rock and Roll Sushi. We ordered wontons, sushi, and ramen. When the ramen arrived it was extremely salty and I could not eat it, so I told my server that I did not want the ramen. She offered to remake the ramen, but I told her no because I didn't want to risk it being salty again. The server also tells me that the restaurant doesn't honor refunds and all sales are final. I told the server that policy was not listed in the menu, and I did not want to pay for something I did not eat. The manager instructed the server to call the police even though I never left the restaurant and I mentioned that I would pay for the food I did consume. The manager explains it's not the restaurants fault I didn't like the taste and that she is going to press charges against me for theft of service. While it appears this matter will now be handled in court, it is vital and more importantly, professional, that this corporation includes their refund policy on the menu so that customers are aware, and are not threatened to have charges pressed against them because they did not like a dish that was created at the restaurant. read more

Rock N Roll sushi is a great intro into the sushi world. Their rolls are tasty but not too complex, with pretty commonly used ingredients for people to be less afraid to try. I enjoy rolls with cream cheese and they have plenty of those options. I also like their presentations; they rolls are typically well rolled with different sauces on top. The staff is also pretty knowledgeable and can help you find a roll that meets your comfort level. Their decor matches the rock n roll them with guitars and other musical aspects throughout their branding. Fried rolls aren't my thing and they have plenty of them! I'd love to see more complex rolls with a wider array of ingredients, but it's still a tide and true choice if you're craving a good roll. read more

I love Rock and Roll but the night manager has pulled this stunt 2 times where she says she doesn't have enough change and expects for you to buy more or a sauce so that she can better service you. The first time she kept my husband's change. We did cancel our 50$ order because What is really going on?? read more

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* read more

I recently moved to Birmingham from Los Angeles. I've been trying to find my new favorite local restaurants. I decided to try this sushi restaurant. I loved the creative menu however the food did not live up to the hype. I ordered two rolls. I was really disappointed. It tasted like the sushi you get at the grocery store. The crab meat on top of one of the rolls was so salty, I had to scrape it off. I paid over 50.00 for the two rolls so I was upset to have wasted that much money on below average sushi. I will compliment the service. My order was delivered quickly. I know being from LA I am spoiled when it comes to great food, but I am not too picky. This food was just not good. Sorry Rock and Roll Sushi read more

Have you ever been to Rock n Roll sushi? If you have you probably can skip this. Rock n Roll sushi is not very good in My opinion, their sushi is horrible and it was REALLY cold in there. First of all, they ground their fish and it tastes like mush, you may like that, but I DONT. Second of all, the slices of the sushi are WAY to big, also it's very cold in there and I am a person who likes to be in a perfect, in the middle temperature. I know it sounds ridiculous im talking about the temperature but...ITS REALLY REALLY COLD. Thats why i dont like it there AT ALL. read more

If you love sushi with lots of toppings this is it! I love the sauces and toppings combo. The portions are also pretty generous! We had crawfish filling over to the top! I also love the menus, very cute and fits the theme. Service was also quick and friendly at the downtown location! read more

i just ate here and have to say that this place is great. The atmosphere is fun and the food is delicious. I came at an off-peak time and the owners chatted with me. They were very friendly and made some great recommendations. I had the Punk Rock Roll and it was amazing. Strawberry on a sushi roll? I was skeptical, but glad I trusted them. It was some of the best sushi I've ever had. I will definitely be eating here again soon. read more

Rock N Roll Sushi - Punk Rock Roll at Rock n Roll Sushi. Absolutely amazing! - Japanese Near Me - Birmingham, Alabama

Arrived around 9:15-9:20pm on a Saturday & they were only doing to-go orders. I understand wanting to clean up and get ready to close, just seemed a little bit early. Food is good I'm sure, won't find out until I get home to eat.. read more

Pros: My online order was ready right on time. Everything I ordered was present including chopsticks. Plenty of avocado on my rolls. Cons: The roll with shrimp tempura inside - the worst batter that was way too over fried, thick, and hard. Not a good choice for after and the actual shrimp inside was tiny and rubbery. Both the rolls I ordered seemed like any fish/shrimp was not great quality. Too expensive for what I got. It's located on a corner and I was able to snag a street spot to park and walk in quickly. Seems nice inside but I only did pickup. read more

Delicious as expected and the delivery was earlier than expected, which was amazing! I'll definitely come back when I'm in town again.

This restaurant has been on my radar for years, so glad it's in Birmingham now. They have traditional sushi as well as what I would call, an Americanized rendition of delicious. Whether you're feeling the Cali or a wild mix of spicy tuna, cream cheese, and crab sick topped with seared filet mignon - they've got you. If sushi is not for you, don't worry. They have a variety of hibachi plates, awesome appetizers and salads, too. When you see one of their desserts go by in the restaurant, you will absolutely break your diet because it's a delicious combination of fried brownie and ice cream. Service is fast and friendly, & the music videos everywhere in sight is a total vibe. read more

Great sushi place. My daughter is not a huge fan of sushi but she said it was the best she's ever had! The service was fast and the staff were very nice. The restaurant looked very nice and looked clean. We didn't eat inside but got carry out. Worth checking out! read more

First I've only been to the one in gadsden I love the sushi and the theme is brilliant any other sushi spot I seen is just a Japanese restaurant. If take someone who doesn't like that type of food is plenty on the manue for them. We shared the brownie with ice cream for desert oh my might been best I ever had they actually deep fried the brownie had amazing crust on it. Try it it's a must read more

Love the atmosphere. Yes to grunge and rock music videos with my miso soup--which was delicious. The miso is how I now a sushi spot is going to be good. This was the perfect blend of umami and salt. I had the seared ahi salad and a jam session roll. Both were delightful and I wish I could bottle the ginger dressing. read more

Food was good, service was friendly and professional.I also liked the music, music videos, and rock n roll decor.My children enjoyed the atmosphere as well. We got the rangoons, salad, teriyaki, miso soup, kids chicken nuggets and fries, and thriller roll. Our kids shared one kids meal, so the portion in the picture you see, double that for the real portion size.The food was good and they also had cheesecake and mochi ice cream. I would've loved if they had a salmon skin roll, but not a big deal. The place was clean and I'd go back again if we are ever in the area read more

Husband and I went to the downtown Rock and Roll Sushi early on a Friday night. We found parking easily. It was quiet inside with few people eating but it did seem like they were doing good take-out business. I ordered the rainbow roll and the unplugged roll. I enjoyed both but thought the rainbow rolls were too big and hard to eat. I prefer when it is easy to eat in one bite. It seemed like a lot of rice in proportion to the other ingredients. The unplugged roll was served flat and was super slippery and hard to eat, but tasty. Our server was very nice and helpful. And even though it was quiet inside it was cozy and the videos were fun to watch. Haven't seen 80's hair bands and hood dancing in a while. read more

Downtown really needed a Rock-n-Roll sushi. We got one without me even having to ask. I've been to the ones in Trussville and Hoover, but really needed a closer one. I got a pickup order here last night. This was possibly the best sushi roll I've ever had in ever. I got the Thriller roll. It's a warm roll. Picture deep fried shrimp and crab meat. It's a bit pricey at almost $13 but worth every penny. I would recommend if you get sushi here to either order two rolls or one roll along with an appetizer or a main dish. I was only inside for a few seconds to pick up an order, but it's so pretty that I want to come back inside to actually dine here. I can't wait to be back! The only reason this is not a five star review is that the sidewalk is lower than the actual restaurant. There was a sign to watch your step when you are coming in so I was fine, but by the time I left I forgot and almost fell LOL! I think they need to add a small ramp before someone really hurts themselves. That's my only critique. Food, staff, wait time.... everything else is five stars! read more

RESTAURANT THE SPOT Rock n' Roll Sushi 420 Richard Arrington Blvd, Birmingham, AL 35233 Food T.N.T. Shrimp (Crispy shrimp tempura glazed with sweet chill, savory eel sauce and a sprinkle of sesame seed confetti, boom) V.I.P Roll (Shrimp tempura, krab stick, cream cheese inside, fully fried OR baked, with Cajun-seasoned crawfish, baked krabmeat, Jalapeño, spicy mayo, sweet chill, eel sauce and crunchy flakes) Chicken & Shrimp Hibachi Back Stage Let's talk about it!! I'm going to start with what disappointed me the most. That chicken and shrimp hibachi was nasty. I didn't even eat my food and if you know me, that's a problem! Lawd idk what they were thinking. It gave fast food. It lacked flavor and the yum yum sauce was disgusting. I definitely won't be ordering that again. I'll go to STIX for my hibachi needs. The T.N.T. shrimp was the bomb! Whewww. The sauce on it was delicious. The shrimp was fried to perfection. The V.I.P. roll understood the assignment. It was soooooo good! I love sushi and it did not disappoint. If you're a sushi lover, definitely get this roll. You will not regret it! Overall, I'll revisit rock n' roll. But that hibachi is a NO‍ Check them out and be sure to let me know what you think!
