    Sex Under Ground
    Bob N.

    I had lunch at Sam's Sushi in Pinellas Park and really enjoyed the experience. I ordered the Thai Spicy Basil with bell peppers, onions, scallions, and fresh basil leaves...full of flavor and just the right amount of heat. My lunch companion ordered the Sex Under Ground roll (tuna, salmon, avocado, mayo, cream cheese topped with yellowtail, tobiko, and sauce), which they really liked as well. Both orders came with a side salad. I did order a Chai Tea, which the waitress forgot until I reminded her, and it was much sweeter than I expected. Aside from that small hiccup, the service was quick and friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a great lunch spot with plenty of parking and fast turnaround, perfect if you're on a lunch break.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Just keep in mind they close between 3-4 PM daily for their afternoon break. Overall, a solid spot for sushi and Thai dishes. I'd definitely return.

    The Tomakatsu Ramen
    Yvonne V.

    We had a Filipino and a Vietnamese person in our party of 3. We all thought it was amazing. Beat krab rangoon ever, and the tomakatsu ramen, crispy duck ramen, and shrimp fried rice were expectional. Some of the best we had ever had. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lagre portions, friendly staf and very clean restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Sam's Sushi will be in our restaurant rotation monthly.

    Clear vegetable soup
    Summerlin D.

    Tried this neighborhood sushi joint on a Saturday at 7 PM. The place had plenty of tables open so we were sat immediately. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service was super fast and the restaurant was pretty clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We started off with the egg rolls, which were OK. They just tasted like basic eggrolls. Then we tried the beef jerky, which was super good, but definitely order it with the sticky rice because it definitely needs some side with it. Then I had the clear soup which was a huge portion, but was very good. Definitely something to get when I'm sick next time. Then I have the hand roll which was super yummy and the monster roll, which was OK. I had the sauce on it that I didn't love and almost had too much imitation crab on top. My boyfriend then had a chicken dish which was super yummy. We definitely enjoyed our dinner here and will be back to try other menu options!

    Sam's Sushi is always a great experience. fresh fish, clean presentation, and everything tasted high quality. The rolls were flavorful without being overcomplicated, and the service was quick and friendly.

    Kanisu
    Dan H.

    Don't let the name fool you, they have something for everyone & definitely not just sushi. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This neighborhood, family owned sushi joint is amazing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It has a quaint & welcoming atmosphere for dine in & was a rotating door for take out throughout our dining experience and I can understand why![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our service was fantastic & the food was even better. For appetizers, we got the Gyoza & Kanisu (krab/avocado rolled in cucumber marinated in rice vinegar); two simple dishes that were out of this world! Seriously, I haven't stopped thinking about this kanisu. For entrees we got the Monster Roll - it took me forever to decide on which to get - and the chicken Katsu.

    I've never been to a restaurant that serves both sushi and Thai food and I think this was my last time. Probably best to focus on one cuisine and do it well. Went around 2:20pm on a Monday and the place was pretty empty. The lunch menu looked interesting offering bento boxes, sushi, and Thai cuisine. I decided on the bento box of chicken pad Thai and 3 pieces of nigiri for $12.95. It comes with miso soup or salad and I chose miso soup. Hubby chose the sushi combo that came with 3 rolls: sushi bomb. D. J. and spicy tuna roll for $15.95. It also comes with miso soup or salad and he chose the salad. Very interesting I could see the steam from the miso soup but when I tasted it, it was lukewarm and tasted strange like an artificial taste. The chicken pad Thai was very disappointing as well. It literally tasted like just soy sauce and the chicken was dry. The nigiri was just ok. I expected the fish to be fresher, considering we were in Florida after all. Hubby's rolls were just ok as well. There is plenty of seating with tables and booths. Parking was very easy. Service was fine as well but the taste of the food is the most important factor for me so I probably wouldn't return here.

    Salmon Deluxe Roll, Tuna Roll

    Best and most consistent Sushi place in Pinellas county. I love the salmon deluxe roll very tasty and always fresh as well as the salmon carpaccio . I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a date night as well. The owners are great hosts as well and always show love.

    A "shrimp tempura" roll without any shrimp. Just a mouthful of tempura.
    Kimberly R.

    We ordered the sexy roll and instead of shrimp tempura, they sent us just tempura flakes. So when we bit into the roll all we got was a mouth full of flakes. No actual shrimp and they tried to disguise it. We are disgusted. Disappointed in the flagrant deception.

    Delicious date night dinner before the movies. Everything is fresh and full of flavor!

    Salmon Deluxe Roll
    Jasmine A.

    I have been looking for a sushi place close to Pinellas Park and I have finally found it! I tried the salmon deluxe roll and it was very fresh and delicious. I am a sucker for crab rangoon as well and that also tasted great. The employees are very friendly and helpful with selecting something off of the menu.

    First, this place is open Sunday!!! Woot! It's located in the shopping center near Cold Stone and outdoor academy. At first, this place was empty, but with us, more people trickled in. It was Superbowl Sunday. There were two huge screens to watch the game. We started with Thai tea, warm sake, tuna tataki and shrimp dumplings. All tasted really good. The tuna came with this amazing ponzu citrus sauce that was magical. We then ordered 3 specially rolls. I do not recall which, but they were fresh, delicious and on point. The service was good and the food, even better. I'll be back to this place!

    TL;DR: this place was great for takeout and I'm excited to order again! My fiancé and I ordered from here on Valentine's Day. We ordered through Uber Eats. Between order & delivery, it took about 45-minutes to arrive. The food came hot and happy to say was VERY delicious. I ordered the veggie Pad See Ew & spring rolls. The noodles were thinner than traditional Pad See Ew I've had, which was interesting. But the flavor was very good. I really enjoyed their spring rolls as well. My fiancé ordered their Red Curry and asked for suicidal spice and he said it wasn't overly hot. So he was a little disappointed as he expected it to be much hotter. All and all, we were both pleased with the meal and look forward to our next one from there.

    Food is amazing! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the ambiance[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and service is excellent! Definitely will come back soon!

They even finished off with dessert like fried cheesecake and fried Oreos. I had unagi sushi, ahi tuna nigiri, a yellowtail roll, and some miso soup. I thought the fish was great! Definitely would come back. I wish I tried one of the specialty rolls but wasn't hungry enough this time. Keep in mind if you're at a table with AYCE but you're not participating, you can't munch off their food. The value for the AYCE price is pretty fantastic though, if you're planning to order 3+ rolls or 2 and a couple apps!

They were victim to a fire but are back full speed ahead with impeccable service, food, & drinks as ever. The staff is both friendly and genuinely wants you to have a good experience. They have mastered both the Thai and Japanese aspects of the menu (obviously in the name but a lot of places are strong in only certain categories). Everything we tried was insane. The Krab Rangoons really stood out to me as those are a dish everyone loves and wants to order at each place and they do theirs spring roll style so you get a bite of everything in every single bite - it's not all in the middle or barely filled. The Thai teas blew us away. We couldn't get enough. The rolls WOWWW was so hard to decide but our server, Kyle hooked it up with the recs. Same with the Thai side of the menu - the fried rice AND the pad kee mao were FIRE. I really wanted to try the curry but will definitely get next time as we could only order/eat so much! Can't wait to go back!!! What we ordered: - Krab rangoons (served in spring roll form - best form imo) - Garlic edamame - Basil fried rice w/ chicken - Pad kee mao w/ beef - TST roll - Angry bird roll - Volcano roll - Dragon roll - Salmon nigiri - Thai tea (og) - Thai green tea (matcha)

Chef Daniel clearly takes a lot of pride in his craft, sourcing fresh fish multiple times throughout the week and putting real thought into every dish. What really stands out is the attention to detail. The rice is perfectly prepared, with each grain having the right texture and balance, which is something a lot of sushi spots overlook. It makes a huge difference. A quick heads up though, this level of quality takes time. If you are in a rush, this might not be your spot. Chef Daniel is focused on doing things right rather than fast, and while he could scale up and bring in more chefs, that is not the experience he is going for. Expect a wait, especially during peak dinner hours. The ambiance is pretty simple and no frills, but that is not why you come here. This place is all about the food, and it absolutely delivers.

Mi Hoanh Thanh was slightly bland, but love the pork rinds in there. Meat was dry. It almost seemed like it was thawed from frozen (not saying it's not made in house, but maybe not as fresh this Monday I went). Pho dac biet was good and plenty of meat. Not too sweet or salty. My mom said it tasted less rich - possibly due to lack of bones when cooking the broth. We got goi cuon and the pork in the roll was also dry. It seemed like they didn't use the pork belly cut so that may be why as well. Server, Tai, was great. We appreciated that he spoke Vietnamese (helpful for older gen patrons) and he was very attentive and kind.

    I am admittedly a strong critic when it comes to sushi. But when several friends recommend a spot,…read moreI feel obligated to give it a try. Nickel City Sushi in Pinellas Park was honestly just meh. They cannot even get the rice right. It tasted like typical Vietnamese rice with little to no rice vinegar and it was dry. That alone sets the tone for the rest of the meal. My friends originally told me to check out the buy one get one roll deal during happy hour. I guess I waited too long because now it is simply two rolls for twelve dollars, which is only a small two dollar savings. The shrimp tempura roll was fried nicely and still crispy, so that was a plus. The salmon tuna roll was fine, nothing special. A little avocado or cucumber would go a long way in adding texture and flavor. I did like that the rolls came in eight pieces instead of the usual six. They sprinkle a tiny bit of masago and sesame seeds on the outside of the rolls. That should really only be mentioned on the menu for allergy reasons because the amount is so small. Yet they list it like it is some kind of bonus, which is a stretch. We also ordered the fried egg rolls, which came out piping hot, but they were small and skimpy at two for five dollars. The wrapper was too thick and the inside was too dry. I know several places that offer three large egg rolls for the same price. For an old school looking bar, they have a decent sized parking lot and ample amount of tv's if you want to see some sports. They have a few pool tables, variety of arcade and slots, along with a ton of dart boards (both traditional and electronic). Its a low key vibe of old locals for the most part. So far, I am not overly impressed with the food. I might consider coming back to try some of their other dishes like pho. Prices are not too bad, the service was quick and friendly, and the drinks were crazy cheap. If I do end up returning, it would probably be for the cheap beer more than anything else.
