Since it's a sushi place I'm going to lead with that. The quality of the seafood was excellent. Would recommend if you like raw bar. The rest felt standard to me, not super impressive but not bad. Fried foods were good. The yakitorj was a little too dry. The stir fries were okay. Sushi had huge amounts of rice, but I've noticed this as a New Zealand thing rather than specific to this restaurant. Only weird part was that the sliding door seemed broken or maybe turned off on purpose. Had to be manually operated and many people getting confused going in and out. Hope the fix the door.

Take a look at the picture because i was shocked at the size of that roll. Otherwise it's fairly standard fair, I would avoid the pre-made food honestly, it did not look super fresh.

Usually I'm very sceptical about going to little random sushi stores, however when my mum…read morediscovered this hidden little gem in Ellerslie five years ago we both fell in love! The sushi is fantastic and so fresh! Made daily from this little store, they have an enormous selection from chicken, prawn, crab, salmon and many more. They also have hot meals to choose from too. There are only a few tables available outside of the store and a little bar along the window inside, so I would recommend taking your meal away. Every time I have been to this little store it has always been the same lovely man carefully placing my meals into a take away bag. If you're lucky he might even chuck in a rice ball. They also do catering here. For my 18th birthday we organised a few dishes which they presented on big circular plates with soya sauce in the middle. It was fantastic and much loved by everyone!

We ordered from the east to see photo descriptions on the menu. We ordered the Spicy Udon Noodle Stir Fry with Chicken, and the Ramen with Pork/Chive Dumplings! Both were so delicious, hot, and fresh. The Udon came with rice balls rolled in sesame and nori, and the chicken was perfect and tasty. The Ramen was piping hot, perfectly spicy, and had egg in the broth. The dumplings were very delicious with great scallion flavor. Small fridge of beverages, L&P, sodas, water, and more fruit drinks! They also had made to order sushi for takeaway, and a nice little counter with stools if you prefer to eat in. Would eat here over and over! Go eat here. The owner also told us many great spots to check out in Auckland and marked them on our map for us. What a delight! Thanks so much. 5 Stars doesn't do it justice.

As for today, my husband ordered his curry katsu chicken again and I ordered garlic chicken. My husband got the same thumbs up for the fresh chicken and the curry. Except for my garlic chicken, the rice was really good but the chicken was a bit dry. My husband devoured his good and finished mine. Then we ordered an yakisoba noodles plate. Now that was really good too. We heard him cooking this dish right after we ordered. This place is really good you will not be disappointed.

Location is prime for students, corporate heads and maybe some daytime boozers. My girlfriend and I stumbled upon this place on our way to inspect an apartment in CBD (I wouldn't recommend it) when we walked pass Nuri Maru and saw the $4 box deals. Whaaaat!? 4 bucks!?! We had about 10-minutes before inspection but I didn't want to miss out on that chicken karaage box or the spam masubi or the assorted salmon sushi. Soooo we detoured right inside. Pretty fun atmosphere you'd come to find at a typical Korean-style sushi restaurant - there was even a giant flat screen TV with K-Pop (Korean Pop) music videos on haha. We paid for our boxes and took a seat when a lovely lady from behind the counter asked if we wanted Miso Soup. I declined at first thinking she was trying to upsell me even after we had already paid. But then I noticed the beautiful sign that read "Free Miso for every $5 purchase" or something like that.. I saw "FREE" "Miso" and "$5" so I that's all I cared about. I quickly retracted my declination and said with conviction "YES!" She asked if we wanted two (one for my gf I guess haha).. Again, I said "YES!" as I nodded my head like an Asian school boy. Everything was surprisingly good for something that's been sitting out for who knows how long. The salmon roll was especially delicious - it had that milky, soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture.. mMMMmMmmM We're definitely coming back again.. maybe tomorrow since we have another inspection in the area hahah

This being said, they don't quite have the same range as the other sushi bars; most of their food is cold sushi pieces and they don't have a fried section under heat lamps. They do keep everything in closed cabinets though and the staff are consistently delightful whenever I go in, always asking me how my day has been and always asking so with a smile.

You can get takeaway sushi during the day and in the evening they have dinner bookings. It's the usual sort of Japanese menu you would expect - heaps to choose from, and presented beautifully. We went there with our children, and the staff were very welcoming and made it a fun experience for the kids. It's not the flashest of Japanese restaurants, so don't expect to be impressing anyone, but the food is great!

It seems to be really popular with the people who work in the area. Their sushi is very reasonable around $9 for an 8 pack I think. It's also really tasty and authentic! I chose their chicken sushi and the veggies inside were crunchy and the chicken was lean and not fatty like you sometimes get in chicken sushi. They do lots of other meals too that look delicious but I just usually go for their sushi because I know it's good. It takes them about 10 mins to complete an order but that's because they make the sushi fresh which I much prefer anyway so I don't mind the wait.

Everything is pre-made so it quick and easy. After you pay, you are allowed to go upstairs for a seating area. We just wanted to eat it on the spot so we opt to just stand and eat. It was great! Don't shy away from this sushi stall just because it's pre-made and isn't sit-down style. The flavor and freshness is all there. The next time I see a &Sushi, I would definitely order a few bites to go. They have so many different options to choose from and the ones that we got tasted fresh. I would even say that this is much better than some sit down restaurants I've been to back in the US.

The sushi is displayed on the side of the street, so it is very tempting even if you aren't hungry. You grab a plate (if you decide to dine upstairs) or a to go box and grab whichever piece of sushi you would like. Sometimes, at sushi restaurants, do you ever order one roll and it comes in 6-8 pieces and it's not that great and you just wish you had gotten another roll? Well fear not, at &sushi, you can grab sushi by the piece! The colorful sushi, fresh fish and unique flavors (kimchi sushi) makes this place a fun and delicious experience. We grabbed a plate and ate on the street - you can't get more casual than that! Do yourself a flavor and grab a plate, your favorite pieces of sushi and enjoy. (Then go to Milse right across the street and make your tastebuds dance in delight with their beautiful and scrumptious cakes.)
