I do not love to post negative reviews, but in this case I feel that it's appropriate. I ordered the chicken teriyaki bowl and the spicy tuna cucumber roll. The sauce on the chicken was tasty, but the quality of the chicken was so poor that I questioned if it was chicken. Upon opening the tuna roll container, there was a waft of old/low grade seafood. I love the concept of a spicy tuna with cucumber roll, but the quality was poor. After one bite of each, I discarded both. It's possible that this was a one off, but given their current score of almost a 4, i wanted to share my feedback. read more

I recently ordered takeout from Sushi Atarashi in Oakland. I walked in and ordered a poke bowl on the kiosk. The restaurant was empty but I did see a number of people come in for takeout orders. I like that you can customize your own poke bowl or sushi roll if you want, but they also have traditional types of rolls like rainbow rolls, California rolls, etc. in addition to poke bowls and sushi rolls, they also offer bento boxes, party platters, sides, and drinks. I only had to wait a few minutes for my order to my completed. One thing I will say about this place is that they are generous with their portions. My poke bowl lasts me two days, which is nice. The staff were friendly and the restaurant was clean. Definitely one of my go-tos. read more

I was craving sushi last night (ok who am I kidding I crave sushi every night) and ordered a 9-piece sashimi and BOGO spicy tuna rolls through Uber eats. I had read some reviews raving about the super affordable bowls, but after adding 1-2 proteins it really adds up! Anyhow, the sashimi slices were unusually firm and very thin; the only major difference between seared vs regular salmon to me was the presence of the skin. As for the spicy tuna rolls, the tempura arrived on the top and bottom making it very difficult to dip in soy sauce. This whole meal felt very 'supermarket cold-case premade sushi' to me, and I ended up getting sushi for lunch AND dinner today to satisfy my craving that was very much not satisfied yesterday. read more

This is an excellent place for a quick lunch in Oakland! Pictured is the crunchy salmon roll which contains salmon, avocado, cucumber, and crunchy onions. I also always get a side of sweet chili for dipping! I've tried many items from here and always enjoy the flavor and freshness. Prices are also on the affordable side, so definitely a solid option to grab some sushi in the area! read more

Atarashi - Crunchy Salmon - Sushi Bars Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Pretty OK sushi spot. Used to be another sushi place but I think either they just renamed or sold it. This new place isn't anything too special, but it's still decent. I like that they have a make your own bowl option, as well as many of the classic sushi rolls. I tried their build your own bowl with tempura shrimp, carrots, sushi rice, sweet corn, and yum yum sauce. I expected there to be a bit more protein than there actually was. Only about 4 small sized pieces of tempura. The rice itself was fine, and portion was decent as well. Vegetables tasted a little unfresh, with the corn likely being canned. The yum yum sauce was quite good though, creamy and sweet. Predominantly rice based dish. All in all, it's alright spot. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, and there are definitely better places in the area, but it's not bad. read more

Got delivery from Atarashi for the 1st time last night. It was good. The salmon poké bowl was/ sushi rice & added cucumber, avocado, edamame, seaweed salad, & sesame seeds was huge - and flavorful, though there was **so** much rice, I had leftovers. You choose a sauce, which was new for me with poké. I chose both spicy mayo (it wasn't really that spicy at all) & "poké sauce" which appeared to be soy based. The combo was perfect for the bowl. The price wasn't too bad, either - $15.12 w/ the add ons. I also ordered an extra seaweed salad for later. I had a small taste, and the flavor was nice tho a little dry. I'll definitely reorder from this place again! Solid dinner! read more

I get this delivered sometimes and it's great sushi! Really good deal, really fresh, and they do buy one get one free on Uber Eats sometimes. I love the topping options for any rolls and it's free! I like to add green onions, crunchy onions, sesame seeds, etc. The sauces are free too which is so nice because a lot of sushi places charge extra for yum yum sauce or spicy mayo Definitely try this place out! The packaging is also really cute and I like how neatly they separate the rolls, just a great sushi place that handles food with TLC read more

I had been craving some sushi for lunch and was between a couple of options in the Oakland area, when I settled for Atarashi (formerly known as Sushi Fuku). If I was reviewing solely on the experience, I would probably lean toward 4 or 5 stars. The ordering process via their online website was super easy and I signed up for an account because I assumed I'd be a repeat customer. The account keeps track of your points with each visit. Example rewards include $3.50 off on sides for 750 points and up to $15 off on rolls for 1500 points. With a single visit, I earned 400 points. I work just down the street, and by the time I arrived after the 3 minute walk, my order was just wrapping up, making it a super quick and convenient lunch choice. I ordered a Rainbow Roll, which came with 10 pieces. Unfortunately, I wasn't too happy. I didn't read the description too closely because I've had rainbow rolls at other restaurants and it's always been the same, but Atarashi makes their roll differently. The menu description says "Ahi tuna and Atlantic salmon layered with 3 pieces of fresh ebi shrimp and rolled together with avocado and cucumber." I learned that this is actually how the original sushi roll (Maki) is made. But, if you Google "rainbow roll," you'll typically find a California roll made with rice on the outside and then assorted fish and avocado place on top, which is the Americanized version. With those expectations, I just wasn't a fan. Additionally, the tuna pieces were a bit icy, as if they were not cut fresh, but actually precut and stored frozen, and hadn't fully defrosted before being used for the day. Overall, the convenience of having quick sushi rolls for takeout did not make up for the quality of the roll during this experience. read more

Food is good, but service is okay. I mobile ordered on a Wednesday after a night class, and went to pick up at 9:05pm, they were closed and sending me away. Without the food I paid for, so I waited till they figured out I was there for pick up. This was just odd because it says it's open till 10pm, so be careful ordering late I guess. read more

First time trying Ordered online - which was easy and pick up was ready on time. Was impressed by how clean the store was-and they the team was clean even when it did not look like it was needed. We got the spicy California roll and Hawaii bowl -- ordered some yum yum sauce in the side ( which does cost extra) -- I don't understand why they were only filled half way though - that was my only disappointment. Thoth tasted fresh and delicious- will try again another time ... south hills location opened so that would be easier :) Enjoy! read more

Great food, extremely rude workers. Place was nice, just needed to be more welcoming. I felt almost like a burden just ordering food lol. And when I came back from the bathroom with the key it was SNATCHED out of my hand twice. Really unnecessarily rude. Didn't even finish my lunch in the restaurant, ate it at home instead. Also had very little tofu in my meal. read more

Hands down the BEST Sushi in the world!!!! one great thing when admitted to Presbyterian Hospital and if not, the Oakland restaurant is just as great. Wonderful and Fast service. Very Convenient and willing to specialize your order. Just perfect! The Soy wraps are mmm-mmm-mmm Devine with the spicy sauce. read more

Update: really disappointed that they got rid of the baked tofu and vegan ponzu sauce. Atarashi isn't worth it to me anymore. Original: This place can get packed with college kids but it's definitely worth the bit of a wait when that happens. I love making my own bowl. The spring rolls and miso soup are also really good! One thing I wish they had is ice. The water just comes out of a little tap. read more

If McDonald's quality sushi is like sushi from a gas station or a grocery store would be a 1, and authentic sushi is sushi on the other side of the scale would be a 10, than this place, previously Sushi Fuku, would be a 4. It's very middle of the road, fast food type sushi, but the price for quality does satisfy my massive sushi cravings. It's not authentic, but boi, it's still delicious. I am a hedonist. I love fried sushi, I love sushi that has that sweet bbq eel in it, I love dragon rolls, I love the spicy Mayo and the rainbow rolls with the beautiful fish. I love it raw, I love it cooked. This is a place where the sushi timid would be able to reasonably try out different types of sushi rolls for much cheaper than one could if they were at a less kitschy, more authentic restaurant. All I am trying to say is that for the price, if you're ordering a bunch of fun, variety filled rolls for people who do AND are timid about sushi, this is a great place to order from. read more

Atarashi - Take out - Sushi Bars Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I am LOVING how i never have to leave the house, or get dressed up to go out to eat anymore. You can get everthing delivered, even the whole way across town. Matt wanted sushi something fierce from our normal place, but they were closed on Tuesday, so we found Sushi Fuku! They had fast delivery, and lots of options. We ordered the Rainbow Roll, Hamachi Roll, some tempura and Gyoza, HOLY CATS, the rolls are HUGE! They are very well put together and super tasty. Their Gyoza is pan fried, and is probably the best I've had in a long time. The order came with plenty of soy, wasabi where requested (thats awesome for me, because i can't deal with wasabi. And nobody likes food waste.) You could add lots of toppings and sauces to your sushi; want tempura flakes?Boom. Fried Onions? They got em. YumYum Sauce on all the things? Your wish is their command. The sushi came super fresh, not soggy and weird. The Gyoza and Shrimp Tempura were still crunchy and awesome, even though they were driven almost 20 minutes after their departure from the restaurant. High fives to Sushi Fuku for great delivery and awesome food. Don't forget, restaurants still need your help! Order delivery direct from the restaurant, or through Yelp. And don't forget to tip your driver! Happy Eating! read more

This is a great place but the vegetarian options are pretty limited. Before I was vegetarian I enjoyed this place much more. The only premade veg option are single ingredient rolls or the ultimate zen bowl, which is ok, though a bit spicy for me. I prefer sweet sauces to spicy ones. For meat eaters, the Ying Yang roll is one of my favorite sushi rolls on earth, so definitely give that a try! Pro tip: always ask for sauce on the side, they always put way to much read more

Update #3. Now they switched to a kiosk order at the counter and not in person and it is not user friendly at all or save any more time. When I received my order today it was completely doused in spicy mayo to the point of being inedible. Ugh this place used to be my favorite and they just keep going down and down. read more

I stopped in here for the first time in years after a meeting in Oakland. It is no longer called Sushi Fuku...now it is Atarashi. The workers were SO friendly and the restaurant was super clean. I like that you can make your own roll/bowl or pick the premade ones. I was in a hurry so I just picked pre-made options. I got a volcano bowl with spicy mayo on the side, and an electric eel roll. There was so much food! I ate the roll for lunch and the bowl for lunch the next day. I didn't anticipate the roll to be so huge and filling! The electric eel was a good choice - salty and sweet from the teriyaki sauce. The bowl was good and I liked the spicy crab the best. It is definitely "fast food" and the fish isn't anything special, but it is consistently tasty and the service is great! I would get the roll again for lunch. read more

I've never seen customizable sushi so that was cool. But I didn't even order that myself because I've never seen it I didn't really know what to get so I just got a premature. If you can see two of my rules are falling apart at the end. They serve it with the spicy thick sauce, rather than soy sauce which I thought was interesting. It was really spicy and it was honestly good, definitely not anywhere near the best I've had though. I would have to say the same thing about the Gyoza. The food here is good. read more

their bowls are yum, i've never tried their sushi but i usually get the volcano bowl and it hits everyyy time.

It was pretty good - super fast which was very impressive. I probably won't be rushing back but I'm glad I tried it. If I'm in a rush and craving shrimp tempura I'll be back in a flash. It's a great alternative to fast food burgers and fries. I probably wouldn't get the bowl option again - - it was a lot of food but I felt like something was missing. And I wish it was just the regular salmon and not the smoked salmon but overall it was okay. I really enjoyed the gyoza and the kimchi. They also have free refills on your drinks which is nice. Overall it's a solid 3 for a fast sushi fix. read more

I liked this place a lot when it was sushi fuku, but now I'm not really impressed by it. The sushi is fine--about as good as the kind you might get at a "fancy" grocery store like Whole Foods or Wegmans. The poke bowls used to be decent but there are MUCH better places nearby. My rating basically just takes into account your other options. For sushi: go to Mount Everest sushi which is literally right next door. For poke: go to JJ's poke on the next street over For bento: go to Oishii bento across the street. For the amount you get, Atarashi is kind of on the pricy side, and I think there are just higher quality options more worth your time. Only bonus: this place takes off-campus dining dollars, so if you're a Pitt student with some of those to burn, then this may be a more appealing choice. read more

The Sukiyaki beef Udonis so flavorful!!! Everything is fresh and delicious. We had a lot of fun with the conveyor belt sushi!

I had the Create Your Own Bento. I picked tempura shrimp, spicy ahi tuna, and the gyoza. It was fantastic. I really didn't know what to get for the sides but I had the kimchi, cucumber sticks and some kind of coleslaw that was just really dry. It was the only meh part of the meal. I can't wait to go back the next time I'm in the city. read more

With a name like Sushi Fuku, you know you have to stop in and see what it's all about! We stopped in for dinner on a Friday night, and it wasn't too crowded. This was my first time here, and I was a bit overwhelmed by all of the choices... there are soooo many!! However, for people like me that have anxiety with too many options, they also have a predefined menu. I chose the volcano bowl, and it did not disappoint! All of the vegetables and greens were super fresh, and the rice was served piping hot. One note - the spicy mayo is VERY spicy... my mouth was on fire for a long time after leaving, but it was so good! If you're not a fan of spicy hot, definitely skip the mayo. Next time I go, I would definitely try to make my own! You can choose to make a sushi roll, bowl, or sushi burrito. You get to choose the meat, vegetables, and the sauce on top, top! This is a great little spot in Oakland, right on Pitt's campus. There is limited street parking out front, and it is pretty small inside, so I could see seating being in issue during busy times. However, it's definitely worth checking out! read more

4.5 stars. This place has a great selection of sushi that they have to offer. My favorite are the bowls because you get a good amount of items when you get it in a bowl rather than the sushi roll. The rolls are great and the toppings they have are amazing because you can create basically whatever you want. The place is clean and the service was quick and fast so you get your food super quick. Def would come back and try the other items they have. read more

I ordered a sushi burrito and a poke bowl from this store and I received one sushi roll cut in half which isn't properly put together and is missing a lot of the ingredients I requested.

On Oakland Ave, literally across the street from Oishii Bento and Chick'n Bubbly -two of my favorite eateries, is Sushi Fuku. Having been eating at those two places for a long while, I wondered if the grass was greener across the street and if I've been missing out on some really good meals at Sushi Fuku. Sushi Fuku has been described like a sushi version of Chipotle/ Subway. You order at the counter and can pick from a set menu or customize your sushi roll/ burrito(seaweed wrapped)/ bowl to suit your fancy. The service is almost crazy fast and the food is plenty filling. You can't say the food is prepared half as fast across the way at Chick'n Bubbly or Oishii Bento. So, if you are in a rush and want the Subway Sushi experience, this is definitely the place for a quick fix. The place is cute and designed for the uni clientele they serve in the Pitt Oakland area. We ate the Volcano bowl, Golden Dragon roll, fried gyoza and kimchi. The salmon in the Volcano bowl is smoked salmon. I would have preferred the fresh salmon and wonder if that is an option. I missed the seaweed wrapper taste in this deconstructed sushi bowl and didn't realize I would until I did. To me, it was like the sushi version of the popular Hawaiian poke bowl. It was very filling but not my favorite. The kimchi was good and I found myself eating it with the rice in the Volcano bowl because there was so much rice. The Golden dragon roll and gyoza were good, not spectacular. I'm glad to check this place off my Oakland bucket list, but can't see myself choosing this place over my two other favs across the street. read more

Sushi Fuku is just...okay. It's an interesting concept, build-your-own sushi, but there are plenty of better places to get sushi in Pittsburgh, and even on the same street. I always get the bowl, as I feel it is the best value. The fish is always pretty fresh but not perfect. I got the eel once and ended up picking it all out--there were so many bones that I couldnt even eat it. The rice is really lacking. Something in the seasoning is off and it makes me barely able to stomach it on it's own. Way too sweet, even for sushi rice. I do like all of the different options that they have, and the service is always fast and usually friendly. I have had a couple of borderline-rude experiences though. The dining area is always clean. Overall, I'm happy to have Sushi Fuku as an option, but it's never really my first choice. Give it a try if you're new to sushi and want to customize what you get, but it's very far from a typical sushi experience. read more

This is a great place to satisfy a sushi craving. They offer a variety of sushi rolls and bowls, both the classics and novel concoctions of your choosing. Tastes pretty good too! It's set up Subway-style so that you can watch your order being made and make any changes at just about any point in the process. The employees are attentive and willing to ask about any changes you'd like to make, so there's no need to worry about inconveniencing them if you'd like your order to be a certain way. Once you get your order, there's a clear area where you can add soy sauce and pick up utensils. It's all clearly marked and labeled so that it's easy to navigate your way around the restaurant. The dining area is somewhat small, which could be uncomfortable when it gets busy. It's perfect during quieter hours, though, to meet with friends and chat while eating. I definitely enjoyed that part of it with my friends, and I can see myself coming back soon! read more
