We love this restaurant! We went around 7pm on a Wednesday, and were seated right away. The service is excellent and they are very attentive. I ordered the chicken teriyaki bento box and my husband got beef bulgogi bento box. When I say it's a bunch of food, trust me! There's sooooo much! Each box comes with your choice of 4 rolls, we both got the California roll, veggie and shrimp tempura, soup and salad, two crab cream cheese rolls, rice and your entree. All of the items were delicious! It was so much food, that we took all of our many entrees home. The leftovers were delicious too! The restaurant has plenty of parking, and a decent amount of tables. There is seating around the sushi bar too! We will be back! read more

Let's start with absolutely nothing was wrong, I went there with friends, service was great, food was right above OK without excessively passing good. I mean, I ate it, I didn't hate it, but I've got no plans to go back unless my friends are going there again in which case I probably will just drink. The vegetarian items were. My guess is the meat side is where it's at based on my Henderslovakian friends loving it, but the vegetarian side was nothing to text home about. I need a different star rating here, it's better than OK but worse than good and there's no hate but just wasn't my thing. read more

We ordered a few roll. The rolls itself were ok. Service was fast and attentive. Decently priced as well. It wasn't the worst sushi I've had nor the best. read more

Dim lights, casual vibes, friendly staff and good food. The food menu is larger than I was expecting which was nice because they had lots of different types of things to eat. I ended up being focused on the ramen section and figured I'd try something new. I got the crazy noodles which had an addictive sweet and spicy sauce with perfectly cooked chicken and noodles. read more

Sapporo - Spicy Chirashi Dinner - Japanese Near Me - Madison, Tennessee

I knew we should have turned around when my husband pointed out the booger on the wall. Fish wasn't fresh. Salmon on sushi was cut incorrectly and had a weird taste to it. The tuna poke salad was about as bad. First bite of tuna still has frost in it. Service could have been much better. However, it seems she was the only server during lunchtime, so that's on management. read more

Been coming here frequently since I moved to Goodlettsville from south nash back in 2019. Has always been decent Asian fare with a focus on Japanese & Korean cuisine. One of those rare places that has seemingly gotten better with time. Pre Covid before the remodel I would've rated it a 3 due to being nothing special food wise but over the last few years it's been remodeled & the food has gotten very consistent & pleasing. Ramen is okay here but I often get a katsudon or katsu curry combo which has tons of food for the price & it is good. Service is good too. Sushi decent as well. Solid option in the area & if you need a ramen fix read more

Sapporo - Chicken Curry Katsu Dinner, too much food & so good - Japanese Near Me - Madison, Tennessee

Outstanding Sushi Bar! Great variety of Japanese dishes. Fresh fish and great service. Ambiance is like 1980's Japan and music.

Sapporo is my favorite sushi spot. The service is excellent. Special care is taken with each customer. I look around and everyone is smiling and enjoying their food. The atmosphere suits both family outings and date nights. The sushi chefs are friendly and the sushi ingredients are always fresh and displayed so that you see what you're eating. If you've never tried plum wine, do so. I'm not sure what brand they serve but it is delicious! The pricing is reasonable. I highly recommend Sapporo! read more

The service was 10/10, I had the yum yum sushi roll , very delicious! My entree was Bimimbap, my korean grandmother makes this for me and honestly no complaints, the portion was 2-3 meals in one bowl. You can never go wrong with their teriyaki steak and fried rice either:) We've always gone to the Gallatin location for their Korean Hibachi , we never knew there was one in Madison, but we will definitely be back:) read more

We really enjoyed this place. The outside doesn't really give you an idea about the vibe, but the inside is darkened and nice. Tables only that I saw, and a counter. The server was very nice and attentive. The food was extremely good. We'd go back. read more

Love this local sushi spot. Been coming here for years. Staff is always welcoming and friendly. Sushi, ramen and bugolgi dishes taste great.

Best sushi in Nashville! Outside of the building looks inconspicuous, but inside the ambience is fantastic. Great vibe, great food and great service! read more

The sweetest of the sweetest people work here. I am in town for a visit and I came here for dinner. I ordered the salmon tataki and agedashi and both were so good and hit the spot. My only regret was accidentally dropping my sake cup which made the entire restaurant gasp. It was empty and I rested it on top of the sake bottle and it fell off. Sad face on that. But happy face on the food, the service, the people, and the entire restaurant for being so sweet and accommodating. read more

While this Sapporo location is much more convenient for me, I will go out of my way to visit the Gallatin location. The service is much faster and friendlier in Gallatin for one. The ambiance in the Madison store is, is, is, ...... just gross. This is my second visit and I just feel gross while there. It's not warm or welcoming . It's kinda dirty. I feel like I'm bothering them when I visit. The "host" will give you menus and point to a table and say "sit". Then you sit there for 15 mins until you're looking around for service. Someone will then come to the table and take your entire order. Having a drink or munching on and appetizer before ordering is not an option. The quality and taste of everything is better in Gallatin location , as well. The Crab ISO is one of my favorites and it's just been ruined for me by the Madison store. read more

My favorite sushi place. The staff is wonderful, the food fresh & it's all very affordable. Their curry sauce is my jam!

Nice restaurant , clean friendly staff and the food was great considering we're in Tennessee. We had a yellow tail collar and 4 different sushi rolls. Kimchi roll, salmon skin roll, spicy yellow tail roll, eel cucumber roll and octopus nigiri. All ver good! So what are you waiting for? Ask for Bailey she is the bomb and knot her stuff! read more

Sapporo - Japanese Near Me - Madison, Tennessee

Sapporo is one of our favorite spots for sushi in Nashville. It's been consistently great for years, with fair pricing, wonderful service, and an extensive menu. We always get a classic roll - such as spicy tuna- and a more adventurous roll and we're never disappointed. It's a true hidden gem! read more

I had a great time at Sapporo. It was my first time. The food was great. The menu is expansive and full of variety. I love that there was a lunch menu on Saturday, total bonus. Due to the lunch rates ($6.99 for 2 rolls with soup and salad) I ordered a lunch meal as my appetizer. I got the snapper and salmon rolls, miso soup, and salad (ginger dressing was fire)! I also had a large sake!! It was warm and awesome. For the meal I got the miso chicken ramen. Obviously this was a huge meal and I took majority home. My friends got a roll each (911 and coco rolls) theirs were awesome. They also got and loved the pork miso ramen and spicy beef miso ramen. Overall I can't wait to go again and try something else. I will definitely go again. read more

I ordered the miso ramen add beef. Ramen can put extra bland, over cooked (mushy noodles), and wasn't "dressed". I had to ask for toppings and was told by my server they don't usually plate the noodles like the menu picture. That was weird! The miso broth was very watered down. Honestly pretty disappointed, I could've done better at home with .50 cent pack of ramen. Not joking!!! I also had spicy crab and spicy tuna rolls. They were both good and adequate for the lunch price of $7.99 for both. Place has been remodeled since I was last here and the layout is open. They get 3 stars because I've eaten here in the past and this is a 1st so I'm hoping this was just a one time miss. read more

Holy lunch menu Batman! You may want to take a look before going especially if you have a hard time deciding! I wasn't super hungry, but you get miso soup a salad and two sushi rolls. Everything was very tasty! I opted for "spicy" rolls both were good but low spice level. The honey spicy mayo is very mayo heavy. Both co workers ordered a form of soup - I will definitely be ordering pho next time! Relatively busy, but fast service and friendly staff. Happy to report the Pho is Delicious, but the best thing I've had in the menu is the veggie dumplings!!! read more

Not good. 10/10 will never go back to this restaurant. Our sushi was very different than what we were used to, the fried rice was greasy, the yum yum sauce tasted WEIRD. Overall, wasn't pleased at all, but paid and left read more

This was a surprise gem! We have lived a mile from this for a year & I never paid it any attention because of the strip mall it's in. Immediately was surprised when we walked in & saw how modern & minimalist the decor was. The vibe was nice, 90s R&B playing. The music was shocking! I'll be back for that alone! Made me & my boyfriend really enjoy our dinner more. The food- I had a Bento Box with Beef Bogoli (spelling?) with a California roll. My bf has Beef & Chicken Teriyaki. We both enjoyed the Plum wine. Portions were huge so we had plenty to bring home. I'll be adding this to my Nashville Favorites list! We will be back read more

I lived in the area but moved away , so I decided to stop in for lunch today as I was driving through, not only was the sushi still the best around, the staff still super friendly and helpful but they reminded my name and welcomed me back. Asking were I had been and how I was doing. Do yourself a favor and drop it n say hi and enjoy a great meal and atmosphere. read more

Friendly staff greet you as you enter and you can sit anywhere, at the sushi bar or one of many tables throughout the restaurant. Quick seating and ordering process and the servers are very knowledgeable regarding all the menu items. Korean bowls are full of soups, stews and noodle dish's as made in Korea. Sushi is very fresh, tasty and portions are much larger than other sushi purveyors in the area. We have been regular customers for over 20 years and the same family runs the restaurant. Three large screen tv's (no sound) over the sushi bar make for an interesting visit if you choose to sit at the sushi bar. I recommend the Alaska roll while my wife favors shrimp or chicken fried rice and an order of gyoza. Fun neighborhood gathering place for good sushi or Korean food. Has saki and cold beer for those who like it too! read more

The BEST SUSHI spot in Nashville surrounding area period! They consistently make the best rolls, never had a bad experience & not overpriced. Just realized I never left them a review & they're more than deserving. Emom is the GOAT sushi chef always there keeping the quality of the sushi to perfection. Come here for the best sushi quality & taste that isn't over priced. read more

Sapporo - Curry Roll & Coco Roll - Japanese Near Me - Madison, Tennessee

This is another place that does excellent sushi but they have the best prices I have found. The food is very good. Here are some of my faves: vegetarian sushi roll, bulgogi, chicken karage, chicken curry katsu, any teriyaki entree, any tempura, and udon curry soup. Their bento lunch boxes are a delicious mix and priced well. Inside, I am told, has been remodeled and is minimalist/modern in decore. It is clean and clutter free which I like. The staff is great. They are friendly, efficient, accurate, and professional. I have eaten in and gotten take out and was very pleased with both. Sadly, they are not opened on Sundays. read more

Everything here is expensive and nasty, I ordered a kimchi soup, teriyaki steak, and dumplings. The kimchi soup looked and tasted as if they mixed water hot sauce and salt, the noodles tasted cheap and extremely similar to microwave ramen soup. The teriyaki steak was very chewy almost like rubber and was obvious that it was cheap. However presentation on the dumplings and teriyaki steak were actually alright looking unlike the soup. I did not set my standards high for this place because I didn't expect fine dining from a restaurant located in the middle of nowhere but it was honestly just unacceptable read more

Food: Sushi roll was good. The Deep fried mochi was a really bad idea, just disgusting. I recon that frying can make things taste better--not this time, NO, especially not ice cream! - I suggest this dessert be removed from the menu. Service: staff was very pleasant. Environment: ambience was chill and they followed social distancing and guidelines. I would definitely be back for the sushi! read more

I think I've found my favorite sushi place in the Nashville area! We've been looking & trying many sushi options around town for the last few years... I'm so happy we've find this place now! They've got tons of options for those picky significant others who aren't sushi people, too. Not a great place for drinks, but I can totally overlook that for great sushi. read more

For lunch you simply can beat the price or quantity The quality is standard on the good side. I have been going here off and on for years and never have had a bad experience. The 3 rolls for 10.99 plus soup and salad is a great deal nowadays. Make sure you look on the back page where there are more lunch options. The rolls on the back are a tad fancier. This the place I started my sushi journey 20 years ago. The manager now a short skinny asian guy with black glasses. He was just a sushi chef and hadn't been here long 20 years ago. I used to know his asian and american name. He is still smiling and as friendly as it gets, working his butt off. And they have remodeled recently also. He said you can ask if they have toro and uni because it is not on the regular menu. Great memories. read more

Ended up here by default on the way back from Yazoo Brewery when we realized our planned carryout from Samurai Sushi would have to wait for another day as they weren't yet open. Found this place on the Yelp app and were there in 3 minutes, food was ready for carry out 5 minutes later. I enjoyed several of the sushi rolls, all were fresh and tasty. The hibachi options are pretty standard but good. Prices were fair. read more

Best tempura veggies ever and Nizzi Roll with tempura sweet potato was awesome! Everything else was good including the service. No picture, but the Salmon Teriyaki was a very generous portion. We tried many other rolls...Vegetarian, Alaska, Nine-One-One, Cherry Blossom. The price was pretty reasonable and the portions were large. I may go back bc I was too full to have my tamago and I'm really curious about mango and strawberries in sushi. read more

Got takeout tonight and I wish I would've tried somewhere else. I got the fried Gyoza, those were good. The let down was in the Bulgogi. The meat was cut & cooked good, but the flavor was very bland. There was no seasoning or spice to the meat. Made for a very lackluster meal. If you are looking for a flavorful meal, I do not recommend. read more

I've passed this place for years but never stopped for whatever reason. This is hands down the best Japanese restaurant I've had in a long time in Tennessee. The service here is amazing, the nicest staff I've ever seen. They are beyond helpful and have made me feel welcome, almost like family. The food is also top notch. I got the creamy ramen, which was such a huge serving I couldn't finish. The flavors in the broth are very good and not overly salty like other establishments. The gyoza was amazing. The I'm hungry roll was breathtakingly beautiful and mild, yet flavorful. The bulgogi is the best we have had since manna Korean closed down. The fried rice was also amazing. I have never left a restaurant this satisfied. I will return and I highly suggest you give them a shot as well. read more
