Best sushi place around! Within 15 minutes, we had ordered and received our food. I particularly like this place because they have a lot of rolls that don't have imitation crab, especially the shrimp tempura roll. The staff here are always so nice and accommodating. It's clean, well-decorated, and overall just a pleasant experience. They also provide complimentary edamame before ordering, and a scoop of green tea ice cream for dessert. read more

Highly recommend coming here! Everyone was friendly and the food was delicious! My new favorite place to come eat sushi and soup (ramen/udon). read more

I can't rave about this place enough! Their prices are great and they have the sweetest staff! The manager/owner (I assume) is always walking around checking on guests and serving tables. They bring complimentary ice cream and edamame which is really a sweet touch. They also have 10% off of the check if you are seeing a movie the same day! Super great idea for date nighters :) Whenever we have family or friends in town we always bring them here. We love it!! read more

My wife and I come here all the time. You get a lot for your money and the service is always on point. I highly recommend coming here.

My favorite sushi restaurant in town. They have the freshest sushi and best udon. Ever since I tried the beef udon I can't come and not order a bowl of udon. The broth is so flavorful. Love me some tempura from here. There tempura dipping sauce is also on point. I always get the vegetable broccoli only tempura. Never disappoints. Love love love sushi boat! read more

I've been eating here since they very first opened in the old location (where forever 21 is now). The food has never lost any quality & neither has the service. Mr. & Mrs. Kim are the absolute sweetest people & I will forever keep coming to this place. All of the specialty rolls are good & tasty but I tend to get the bento boxes or the dinner plates. Their salmon teriyaki is the best I have ever had from many other restaurants. If you're in the area, I recommend swinging by. read more

OMG great sushi great customer service. Trisha was great she made sure we were taken care of also john was great as well. He wasn't even our waiter and he made sure we were doing well. The food was great. It was so great I forgot to take a photo. Lol but thank you to the staff here. Definitely give it a try if your in the area. read more

Great place, the miso soup is flawless every time. This is the best sushi spot between Escondido and Beaumont in my opinion The picture was complimentary from the chef it was unreal read more

I'm so glad this place is still serving good and fresh sushi/sashimi and doing really good for such a long time with the same restaurant manager. This has been our family's quick Japanese sushi place to go to at the beautiful Promenade mall in Temecula before my son NATHAN was even born. 5 stars over all! read more

I've been here so many times over the years since it used to sit where the current Red Robin is. The 5 stars is a cumulative score. The bento box is a perfect choice when you're not into sushi rolls. I usually get the Chicken Katsu with Sashimi. I love the extras that come with it: miso soup, salad, gyoza or fruit. The Sushi Box A or B options are great too. Complimentary ice cream at the end of the meal tops off the visit. Great food and service is nice. The manager/owner is such a nice man. He's always smiling. Totally enjoy dining here. read more

Normally the food and service is great. However never go on the day that the sushi chef is not there. The Hispanic guys don't know what they are doing behind the sushi bar and the female Asian waitress is really not as good in her job as the other waiters there. We order the Gold Sashimi combo and they screwed up by giving us the deluxe, we ask them to redo it and they tried to just add some random pieces instead of redoing it. This isn't the first time we came here. We always order the Gold Sashimi combo when we come and dine. I would have just let it slide if they would have just fixed the order, but they chose not to and the waitress just tried to make excuses. If you are here for sushi or sashimi and you don't see the actual sushi chef just walk away. read more

Well they lost my business!! They can't even answer they're phone. That's ok they've lost their touch anyway. The mall needs to put in a better sushi place that actually likes to get business read more

By far, my favorite sushi bar to visit in this area, when I'm up for the drive. I've dined here at one point, a few days per week, but lately found so many other places I crave, I rotate my restaurant visits LOL Anyhow, it's always busy here, it seems, a constant flow of people, typically busier before and after a movie, especially on weekends, great social gathering spot, and the best part for me, is there's a table in the back area for those parents who love sushi and adult conversation while the kids have their own play area, t.v. and movies! You can't reserve this section (seats about 5 adults) I believe, but you could always still call and ask) I try to visit when the lunch crowd dissipates or before the dinner crowds) My son always makes a friend and he is comfortable to eat and mingle/play, and let myself and girl friends hang out. The service is impeccable! The sushi is really reasonably priced and you do get a lot for what you pay. The staff is always superb! I always share brief hello/conversation with the man in charge, I don't know if he's the owner, or a manager. There used to be outdoor dining, but since the remodeling of the mall, they no longer have that due to a kidi's train that circulates the area and needed the space I'm sure. Complimentary edamame EVERYTIME, sometimes at the sushi bar, they will serve complimentary crab/cucumber salad, really refreshing! They really treat us well, especially Phil (sushi chef) always has great recommendations! Their menu is very thorough and diverse, with not only sushi, but other Korean/Japanese dishes!! I think their best deal are the lunch combos that are choose 2 *think it's about $8 or choose 3 *I think it's about 9 bucks, at least at lunchtime ,I may be off by a couple dollars, so sorry if I am, but still really inexpensive since after u choose the 2 or 3 items, u also get steam rice, miso soup, AND salad, small side of fresh fruit medley, and the pickled Asiasn (yellow) radish for garnishings!!! ... choices included in the combos are from tempura/beef , salmon, or chicken teriyaki/ sushi/gyoza/ tempura roll/california roll/spicy tuna roll Sushi photos, again, very clear and descriptive, love the Winchester Roll, Havasu Roll, Spicy Tuna, and their Sukiyaki (beef and glass noodle soup) My son loves their miso soup, teriyaki and tempura and sometimes the udon too. I even asked if they could make this sushi version I had on a visit out to Vegas, and without fail, they accomodated! My favorite side to add to all my sushi rolls now (have to ask for it tho) is a tempura fried jalapeno slices.... Even without asking, they almost always have brought out some rainbow sherbet ice cream for him to complete his meal, complimentary! My favorite dessert there is their green tea tempura ice cream :) I wish I had photos of all their wonderful food I've had here in all my visits, but I hope you believe me if you haven't tried their sushi, you'll make the trek to visit inside the mall complex, it's outside the food court entrance. There's so much construction still going on the Red Robin side, it's best to park over by the newer area near PF Chang or instead of the parking garage, behind the movie theater. Or park behind Sears, and walk through Sears, out the food court, and it's to your left. Only downside is if you leave Sushi Boat after the mall closes, you're locked out and have to walk all the way around, behind Red Robin. Sorry to say I only have one pic from a birthday sushi roll (can't even remember which one it was called, I love so many of them) Now that I know about Yelp, keeping a better food photo diary :) read more

Sushi rolls as big as your head... 1. Ok I may be exaggerating just a wee bit but seriously their sushi rolls are huge as well as their reasonably priced sushi selection. I loved how the menu offered pictures of all the rolls. They also gave us a complimentary ice cream at the end of our dinner. 2. It was a bit tricky finding this place. We saw the sign from the road and was looking for its own building. But it's actually located in the mall across from the movie theater and next to CPK. So you can park in front of Sears and Lucille's BBQ then walk in. Mmm Lucille's..... 3. Great atmosphere and service. They even had this little play area with toys for your kiddies. It was a lovely night for gluttony. read more

My wife doesn't really like sushi or fish in general, but she agreed to have lunch here with me since the owner had given her a $5 certificate if she spent over $20 :) We walked in, were seated immediately and had some time to look over their extensive menu. I ordered the 3 item dinner plate with chicken teriyaki, beef teriyaki, and avocado roll while my wife ordered more chicken teriyaki, shrimp tempura, and a California roll. I thought they were both reasonably priced at about $12 per order. And it even came with ice cream at the end!!! Our waitress was really nice and took really good care of us... the owner himself also came over and said hello to wife and thanked her for finally coming in. Overall, this place is solid and we can't wait to come back again sometime! read more

Normally when I go here I enjoy everything but this last time did not sit well with me. Came in around 3pm and it was pretty empty. Service was fast and good but where we were seated the floor was dirty. My husband loved the roll he ordered but the salad and soup that came with my meal tasted old. We asked for a fork because I suck at using chopsticks and the one brought to us was dirty. The soft shell crab had too much batter on it. It took away from the actual crab. I guess the deep fried California roll is already pre made because I was told I cant get it with soy paper instead of seaweed. I love that complimentary edamame and strawberry ice cream are always part of your experience here. read more

We eat there weekly we have never had a problem and always a pleasant experience. Today 3/3/2022 around 1pm. The server completely ignored us the minute we sat down. We asked the hostess as she walked by we where ready to order she told us just a minute. We sat there for another 10 minutes before we decided to take our business elsewhere. read more

Fresh tasting and crave worthy! The Spam Musubi is the very best!! The portions are excellent and the staff is very sweet and friendly! We can't wait to go back! read more

I visited Saturday at noon. Place is empty and dark, stench of chlorine permeates the room. I like the decor, wood and Samurai armor, but Britney Spears blasting in full volume ruins the whole atmosphere. I ordered miso soup to start with, it never arrived. Now to the food itself: Rice is falling apart, not sticky enough. Avocado is with dark spots, not well picked. Salmon is OK, Costco grade. Overall 3 out of 5 for food, minus 1 star for missing miso soup. read more

Sushi Boat - Philly roll - Japanese Near Me - Temecula, California

Update: I no longer recommend this restaurant. Their server is rude and did not even refilled our soda. When we asked why they lowered the Kids meal age from 12 years old to 10 years, the server just said I don't know in a rude manner.To add more insult, my bill has a total of $43 so I paid $20 plus $23 from my credit card and the server did not even remit my $20 cash payment to the cashier so I was charged the full amount of $43 on my credit card. She plainly denied I paid $20 cash. In fact, my wife is the one who gave me the $20 cash and I inserted it on the bill pad together with my cc and the receipt. So this server is pretending she did not see this $20 cash. This server probably took my cash. Not going back to this restaurant anymore.. Stay away people if you don't want to suffer the inconvenience and rudeness.Food overpriced and dishonest server here. read more

Really enjoyed going to Sushi Boat in Temecula. (It was our half-way point of meeting with friends coming up from San Diego). Nice spot, right across from the Edwards Movie Theater and good service...even kid friendly with a little play area for my son. Reasonably priced...I really liked how they showed pictures of most of their rolls on the menu, and I LOVED how the sushi were LARGE & IN CHARGE (you get alot of bang for your buck here)! I ordered 3 rolls thinking I would still be hungry....but was full off of 2 rolls. Zima Roll was my favorite (check my pic) They even served complimentary Strawberry Ice Cream....nice touch! read more

I'm still a fan of this place and I think I always will be. I recently tried something new here, well new to me. I tried Sushi Box A. With tax it came out to $10.23. Which is a pretty good price for what you get. Let's see, the box includes: Miso soup, a salad, a green salad ( I want to say it's seaweed-esque) A 6pc. spicy Tuna roll (you can get regular, just ask), 4pc California Roll. and four different types of nigiri, Shrimp, Salmon, Tuna and Albacore I believe. The nigiri is my favorite part of the whole box! The fish is so fresh and it just melts in your mouth! Service is okay, as far as the servers go. It felt like they didn't really come around much to give refills. But the owner is definitely another story. He is super friendly and attentive. And I forgot to mention, you get complimentary ice cream at the end of your meal [: read more

Got the sushi box "A". To be honest I'm pretty surprised at the low quality of the sushi I was served as I've always heard great things about this restaurant.

I come here every week for over a year. I love this place. Service is friendly, restaurant is clean and charming. It's located right in the mall, so location is great. The food is always good from the Sushi to the lunch and dinner boxes. Miso soup to start and ice cream to finish is the way to a prefect meal. Hardy is normal my waiter and he is the best. read more

I am a little partial since I have been enjoying the delicious (and reasonably priced) sushi here for almost 5 years, but this place is the best! I first went to Sushi Boat with a friend and was amazed at how attentive and friendly the staff was. She was a regular and they greeted her by name. I soon returned, boyfriend in tow and now this place is our regular place to dine out. After only a few times going, the staff knew our names and casually chatted us up each time we came in. We are often offered to try new things that aren't on the menu (free of charge) and they are always great about changing ingredients on their rolls. The manager Mark is awesome, sushi chefs Phil and Charlie rock and we have even followed former chefs to their new places of work because we missed them (and they still make us our favorite Sushi Boat rolls-BONUS!). If you are looking for a great meal, a friendly atmosphere where you will soon feel like family, then this is the place you should go! read more

I love sushi boat! I always get a specialty roll, which they have hundreds to choose from, their jalapeno bombs, and now I also get their popcorn chicken! Their sushi and sashimi is always fresh, so I always try to switch up which roll I get. So far I haven't been disappointed by any. Their jalapeno bombs are, well pretty bomb! They are basically japanese style jalapeno poppers! yum yum yum! I also like their popcorn chicken! While it's not quite on the level of Taiwanese popcorn chicken, it's definitely a contender! Also, they give free ice cream after the meal! Yeayuh! read more

been here couple times before and the foods amazing!

But the service sucks. read more

First time here and will be back! Loved the Hawaiian Roll because the tuna tanaki was so deliciously seared and seasoned. The albacore on top of the Albacore Delight Roll with garlic ponzu sauce was 2nd best. Will definitely ask for those on a platter so I can try the different rolls. There are many! The customer service was awesome filling drinks, nice, and they give you some edamame and green tea ice cream on the house. As for Covid, they spread out where you can eat in and they do a good job spraying and wiping. read more

I love Sushi and I am all for trying a new place, maybe not new in the sense its "recently opened" but new that I have never been. Came here for a Saturday lunch/ dinner with Mini-Me, service wasn't bad but it wasn't great, prices were more then I am used too, but weren't bad but it did limit my spending, but that sometimes happens when you go to a new palce on the fly... the fish tasted okay and the rolls had a good variety so no complaints saw a few Bento boxes go by and they looked appealing but I am not a bento box gal, I am all about the sashimi and sushi as is Mimi-Me. It does seem to get busy in the afternoon / early evening but I think its because of the location local patrons were friendly enough as were the chefs and wait staff. I will have to come back a few more times with friends and the rest of the family to get thier take on it, but its hard since we all have our own favorite local place that we are regulars and go to most often. Please note, this is Sushi Boat not to be confused with Love Boat Sushi down the way by the new Famous Daves or Roadhouse. Until I come back a few more times my rating stands at 3-Stars. read more

Went here for the first time tonight. It was really good! We sat at the sushi bar, where we watched Matt prepare our sushi rolls. Everything was awesome and the staff members are very friendly. The wait wasn't bad at all either. Our bill was about $10 less than some of the other places we've gone, but the rolls were bigger than the others. Great service, atmosphere, servings and price. We will definitely go back again. read more
