One of our favorite spots for lunch. Unfortunately I ordered a signature roll that was labeled as spicy crabmeat and instead got imitation crab. Im not new at eating seafood so this was obvious to me but I had to get a second opinion. What others posted online and what I got was clearly not the same and the texture was just like imitation crab. Please don't label your ingredients as something premium when it isn't. What a rip off. read more

Excellent sushi! Not a fancy restaurant, more of a casual cafeteria feel. Interesting and tasty rolls on the menu and the standard sushi was excellent! Reasonably priced and a great Kraken pregame meal. Service was top notch as well. read more

You get a perfect 5 yelp stars. On our way to a Kraken game, and of course we are hungry. It's rainy, and what food options do we have, because everything inside Climate Pledge is too expensive (probably paying for the carbon credits for the pollution it creates), but alas, we want food. So according to help, there is a sushi shop nearby? This isn't a glamorous place, in fact it feels basic, as it should be. It's as utilitarian as you can have a place that will serve you solid sushi. Inside you have simple tables for groups of 2, 4, and maybe 6 at best. It's also at the bottom of a parking garage, so it feels like it, again, not a bad thing, don't expect Umi Sushi. The service, we have a young woman serving us, and she was lovely. She came by plenty of times but also left us alone to enjoy the food before the hockey game. All in all, take all things into consideration, this is exactly what a small, local owned, restaurant give you. read more

I am a big sushi eater! I have tried many sushi restaurants. I have to say that Sushi Avenue is one of the BEST! I have tried many of their dishes. They are always full of flavor and the layout of their dishes are so appetizing! The food is always tasty! I am never disappointed! I order take out at least once a week. I would definitely recommend Sushi Avenue to my family and friends! You will love it! read more

My boyfriend and I have been here a couple times. The place is on the ground floor of an office building and very much so has cafeteria vibes, the servers are always nice, but the food overall is pretty meh. We're tried probably 5-6 different types of rolls here and they tend to be hit-or-miss. Some of them taste fresh and flavorful, will others taste odd and like they're a bare step above supermarket sushi. Overall not bad prices, but you definitely get what you pay for read more

Great sushi at such a good price! We ordered takeout from here, but there are plenty of tables inside for you to dine inside as well. Their menu is quite extensive with a bunch of different rolls and combos. I opted for the torch sushi box which came with 8 giant pieces of torched sushi, as well as 2 hand rolls and a side of seaweed salad and edamame. Altogether this was under $25 which was such a steal! The fish tasted fresh, and the rice was well seasoned too. I will definitely be back for more sushi! read more

Awesome sushi. The main waitress there is super nice. If you want quick and to the point, this is your place. I like that I can sort of yell across the restaurant and say, " I'll have another Coke!" The demeanor is very relaxed. Again, sushi is good. I come here with my girlfriend all the time! Not a super fancy, take forever type of restaurant. I really like it. The only time it took a while was when they were SLAMMED after a kraken game, and I had patience. read more

This place is a lovely hidden gem! It's on the edge of Queen Anne, and part of a larger office building. But do stop by! Small and unassuming, the food is solid and cheap, and service is attentive and quick. We ordered the cheesy mussels to share which were so fire. They came out hot and steamy, the cheese was all melted and gooey, and the mussels were meaty and sweet. I got an assortment of torch sushi. My favorite was the spicy tuna, but they were honestly all so good. I love that they add toppings and shrimp tempura inside of the rice to add some different textures. Overall, a really solid sushi spot. I especially loved the super fair price point. Would definitely come back! read more

Saw a new sushi place in the area and we finally got around to trying it. Went on a Saturday night and there were a few people, but we were able to be seated right away. It's a cute little small café type feel. We first had a salmon skin salad that was kind of like an appetizer and on the house, which was ridiculously tasty. I don't know how they get that salmon so crispy. The Hawaiian roll was very unique from other sushi rolls that I've had before, but I really enjoyed the flavor combination! I also had some simple cucumber maki and a Philly roll. They brought us to Japanese cream puffs because they wanted to apologize for the long wait for food, however, it wasn't a long wait at all! Even though there was only one person I think in the back making sushi, we both thought service was relatively quick. I of course, had to end the night with Taiyaki and I got it with strawberry ice cream--it came with popping strawberry boba too Prices were decent and they have a lunch special we'll definitely come back for too, in addition to dinner again! read more

Easy and cheap. Their menu is fun and their own. Everything about this place is what it is. You'll have to go in person to understand. From the off beat interior design to their choice of ingredients, even their portions and service. The I'm being generous with 4 stars, the food is 3 stars, but when you factor in the fact that their food is so darn affordable, I think people in the area will seriously appreciate having this spot in this location. All the other restaurants that have opened in this exact location have failed pretty bad, but in my opinion, this place just feels right. Gives me that, I'm on lunch break at my outskirts downtown water over looking job. Takes me back to those days. Let's get to the serious talk. Their interior is very boring, inconsistent, and probably left over from the last restaurant. I'm fine with that, seeing how they aren't presenting themselves as some fancy luxury sushi spot with high prices. To be honest I'd rather them focus on improving their offerings before investing time into looks. To be further honest, I hope find that sweet spot to get to a point where they do update the place. It will for sure attract more customers. Their menu selection was adequate. Nothing over the top, but for sure not boring. They have a many of the classics as well as their own signatures. One of their signatures is their torch sushi which wasn't anything like I imagined it would be based on the name. It's actually pretty cool and unique and not just regularly old seared nigiri. I ended up ordering a baked roll with pineapples and melted cheese on top. Very unique for Seattle, but I've had fun rolls like this in other states. I will add, there are a few other sushi spots in the area that also offer some sort of niche sushi so I can't say they have gone above and beyond. Their service is above average, but not over the top. Our server greeted us with kindness and check on us regularly. Their kitchen is not walled off so you can see the employees hard at work. Zero wondering, what's taking so long. They brought out each dish as it was completed. They even did something kind and fairly genius. They used the left over salmon from our order to prepare us a salmon skin salad as an appetizer for free. Even though they warned us the specific items we ordered would take a bit longer to took, they still took care of us. Huge bonus in my opinion. I could feel their concern for our well being and happiness. For the price point I was impressed in a few areas, yet still let down in areas that I feel like could have easily boost their food rating. For one, their wasabi was real and fresh. Most cheap spot have unacceptable wasabi that creeps me out, but they are not one of em. The fish they used was fresh and tender in a way I could eat all day. Their presentation was very beautiful and their sauces had great flavor. One thing that I personally think they could do to help would be to use more rice for their nigiri, like double or triple since rice is cheap. I also wished the seared salmon had sauce on it. There were other things my heart desired for 5 star sushi but at this price point they exceeded or met my expectations. read more

Absolutely love this place! Very inexpensive sushi, but still very good quality and the service is always kind. I've only eaten there once and it was nice quiet experience. I do a lot more to go orders, but it's always been wonderful as well and fresh. read more

My first visit to Seattle and found this Local gem for Thanksgiving! Fresh salmon, great sushi and awesome service 5 stars

There are so many aspects to love about the food and service at Sushi Ave. The basic rolls are very fresh and well done. Portions are generous, which is nice when your hungry! the prices are great for Seattle. The service is smooth and timely. The ambiance was not inviting when viewing photos online, but better in person. that said, the ambiance is an area which could be improved, paint and plants? i took off one star because the signature rolls sometimes bordered on mushy. the torched sushi is yummy, so try one of those. read more

Great lunch special with generous portion size. I got the 3 rollls with a salad and had leftovers. My friend ordered a rainbow roll and crab salad, which she enjoyed. The service was a slower than expected because there weren't many people dining in but there were several takeout orders. read more

AMAZING sushi restaurant!! I have been many times and keep recommending to Friends! This place rocks! Have had nothing but great experiences and comments from friends that trusted me and went!

Such nice people! Kyle was our server, Seth the owner. Relaxed jazzy background music and photo-worthy, tastebud pleasing food. Had miso, two rolls, hamachi nigiri, and chicken karaage. Wish they had sake but that's being negotiated with the landlord (who I hope is giving them an equivalent break in rent for lost revenue due to the lack of alcohol sales). Please support your local business and drop in for a sit down meal or take out! Closed Wednesdays, I think. read more

Best quality for value sushi in Seattle hands down. Takoyaki is the best I've ever had too

A solid B. Fish was fresh and the maki were well-built. But the taste was very mid, and fish was all served way too cold. I got the impression that the business wanted to please their customers and worked hard but they didn't love sushi, and it showed. In my experience great sushi usually comes from Japanese chefs. There were no Japanese in this kitchen. read more

I've been telling people about the sushi Ave on Jackson for years! I can believe Queen Anne is lucky enough to be the location of their second shop!! And So far I'm equally impressed! There's a lot I love about sushi Ave in the short time this location has been open. First, I love how you can order direly on their website! Delivery apps suck. The staff is all so friendly. And EVERYTHING I've tasted so far has been incredibly fresh and delicious! The torch rolls and the jade rolls are my regular orders. I've probably been in here 7x already for lunch. The prices are also sooooo good for Belltown/lower Queen Anne. I highly recommend checking them out! read more

I was really excited to have a new sushi spot close to home. The place was empty when we went for dinner. There was a strong smell of fish in the restaurant, which we got used to in a bit, but I'm guessing that people who can't stand the smell of fish won't be happy. I'm guessing it's either because of the open kitchen or because of poor ventilation. The server was nice, but couldn't answer some of our questions. It also bothered me that the torch sushis in the menu did not have all the ingredients listed. We ordered a spicy killer roll, a hot volcano roll, and a combination of four torch sushis - spicy tuna, unagi, spicy salmon, and wasabi tuna. A few minutes after we had ordered, the waitress gave us a complimentary tuna skin salad (not sure of the name, can't find it in the menu) which was nice. All of the rolls had good fish, but lacked flavor even after having "hot" or "spicy" in the name. We needed generous amounts of wasabi with the rolls. The volcano roll was a surprise - it looked like a volcano, with erupting fish. Overall, it's a decent place with good prices. I hope they improve on some of the things mentioned here. I would love to have a go-to sushi place close by! read more

Went for lunch at 2 pm. All the tables were dirty and not cleaned. The girl at the counter asked if we were eating inside or picking up, and when we said inside, she recommended we get it to go. We reiterated that we wanted to dine in. At that point, she sighed in Chinese, expressing extreme dissatisfaction with our choice. We left because we didn't want to "burden" them with our presence and money. Definitely a bad experience. Didn't try the food. read more

A very welcome addition to Lower Queen Anne. Working in the area, everyday sushi options that strike the right balance between quality and value are highly limited. They're still refreshing the interior but I can say that the quality of their fish is terrific. I'm a raw, plain salmon guy all day long. Had the sashimi lunch special and that hit the spot perfectly. Won't fill you up and leave you feeling bloated, but that's what Wingstop up the street is for :) Was greeted warmly by one of the owners and the staff, especially Kyle, were all friendly. Once they iron out the opening-day kinks I'm sure this will become a neighborhood mainstay like their International District location has. read more

After a long day of exploring, we were craving sushi. We struck out at two restaurants because we didn't have reservations. To be honest, we were not dressed or in the mind set of having a fancy dinner. As we walked back to our hotel, famished and exhausted, we came upon Sushi Ave. The storefront is at the bottom of another office building, non-descriptive and plain. We were skeptical, but we checked the other yelp reviews and decided let's give it a try. Boy, we were surprised! It appears to be a popular takeaway option, but we had several parties dine in while we were there. The food was awesome! We started with the takoyaki. Piping hot and flavorful. We ordered the California crunch, spicy tuna, and shrimp tempura maki rolls. Both were excellent! Fresh and tasty! The sushi rice was cooked perfectly. We also ordered the torched sushi bento box. It came with 8 torched box sushi pieces, seaweed salad, and edamame. Oh my! The torched sushi was delish!! There was two of the following: salmon, eel, white fish and another buttery fish! Sooo good!! We also ordered the Japanese Fried Chicken with steamed rice. It was good, but the sushi was the star of this meal. Check them out! read more
