My go to spot for quality sushi! Love doing the omakase experience. It's always a great surprise and delicious! Every once in a while, I see a local celebrity there. (Vikings players!!) read more

Absolutely AMAZING!! I've never been to a sushi restaurant that gives you such large pieces of sashimi in their appetizer menu for $20 and for this I'll be coming back all the time! Everything we had was impressive. The grilled squid was so soft and tender, I definitely did not expect that. The rolls are pricey but they are twice the size of a normal roll so they are definitely worth it. read more

OKAY. This is hard. Because it's 5 stars for Minneapolis but not 5 stars in my heart. Ha! I'll give it 4 stars. Basically everything I have to say for this place needs to be followed by "for Minneapolis." It's fresh...for Minneapolis. It's cut nicely...for Minneapolis. The rice is good...for Minneapolis. It's a good deal...for sushi in the Midwest. This isn't necessarily fair because I think even good sushi in Chicago is expensive and hard to find. Fish in the Midwest tends to be a little soggier, a little freezer burned unless you're paying a LOT for it. With the understanding that good options are limited, Sushi Fix is a winner. It could *never* survive at its prices in California, but we aren't in California, right? And this is simple economics so I'm fine with these prices. I'm fine with the fish I'm getting for these prices...in Minneapolis. Ha. read more

When I worked in downtown Minneapolis, stepping out of the office in the summer to buy lunch at the Sushi Fix truck was the biggest treat, because they offered the best sushi in the Twin Cities. I finally made it over to Wayzata to try the Sushi Fix restaurant, and they did not dissapoint. Our server, Lindsay, did an excellent job. She was attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere was casual, but the food was five star. The Poki was an excellent starter to go with the Tokyo Side Car cocktail. The Spider Roll, Jackie Chan, and Willie Wonka rolls all made for an excellent main course. The Willie Wonka was a special for the week, but Lindsay advised us we can ask for it by name in the future, and we will; it was superb! I've never seen real wasabi on the menu anywhere else, so it was a treat to get to try that for the first time. Coedo Dark was a tasty beer, and I'll be looking for that in the future. We had a great experience at Sushi Fix and will be back again! read more

Sushi Fix - California roll and Jacky Chan roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Wayzata, Minnesota

OK OK OK so I had my doubts on the hype. Sushi in Wayzata? Best in the Cities? The best service and sushi chefs? That started with a food truck? OK - I'm sold. Billy is welcoming and genuinely gets to know his guests, taking care of the omakase style as mentioned...there is a great sake list, great wine by the glass, beers by bottle only is the only downer. I would say that in the Twin Cities sushi scene, Masu and Fix are tied for first. Fix has super fresh sushi, generous size nigiri, the salmon is "buttah". The space is smaller and packed with regulars, but we were able to finagle 2 seats at the sushi bar nonetheless. And also - the sushi bar was planned as a centerpiece in the restaurant - high top chairs, roomy counter, able to look the chefs in the eye while talking to them. Vs other sushi bars where you are packed in, feel like you are sitting in a hole on chairs made for children. So Omishamaishai to the new and fantastic sushi restaurant! PS I went to the food truck last week - and it was just as good...albeit a bit pricey vs other food trucks...but the quality is great nonetheless. I hear they plan to expand their current location's space.... read more

I have been here many times and for some reason I have never reviewed Sushi Fix. Last night I had some of the best sushi in Minnesota so I had to give it five stars. The Sydney's salad was so good and if it was open for lunch I would order it just by itself. We then had two rolls-one was a special and the other was the Wayzata Trojan roll. It was so good! I'm hooked! read more

Absolutely the best sushi in the twin cities. Ask for Sam, he's the best and will take care of you! read more

Best quality sushi I've had since moving back to Minneapolis 2 years ago. Flavorful, tender fish served in very creative ways. The wait staff was terrific and added to the whole experience. The place is on the high end for pizza so I will reserve it for special occasions. Get there early as it fills up quickly. read more

Hate to write a good review because the place is so busy . . . And happy Fresh flavorful custom made. And expanding .... Thank you! Try the Blue Fin for Four with Blue Hue saki. Yum! Or Waygu beef and red wine. read more

I have to say that the increase in prices totally ruined it for me. Wow! I think the Silly Billy roll went up by $5.00. The sushi is great but not that great for the price increase. Won't be visiting again unless they go back to previous prices. You are going to lose more customers because of this. read more

Great place! Me and my friends always come here to eat sushi and have fun. And their chefs are extremely nice, service is good, but only thins is this place super busy all the time. I would recommend you expect wait time if you really want to eat good sushi. read more

Came here for a quick sushi dinner date just to try it. Will not come back because of multiple reasons. I ordered the soft shell crab and instead of the sauce being on the side, the crabs were soaking in the sauce and that's all you tasted, mediocre soy sauce. We ordered the tempura and that was probably the better appetizer. We ordered three sushi rolls. The Danimals roll was really good and if I were to come back, I'd reorder. The number 9 was very good also and I'd reorder again as well. The Johnny b good was so horrible. You just tasted the peppers and honestly they should get rid of this and make it into a poke bowl. Service was mid and the place was overcrowded. Maybe remove a couple of tables because if you want a romantic date night here, you won't get it. Waiting 45 minutes for our sushi for it to be mediocre in this state, not worth it. You're better off going to a better place. read more

Along the lines of "don't judge a book by its cover", this place is a jewel! Fresh, great presentation and reasonably priced for the 'neighborhood'. Great for date night or solo at the counter. I love this place! read more

Awesome place! We sat at the sushi bar watching the masters at work! The waiter was wonderfully helpful and the food was lovely. The rolls are quite large so keep that in mind when you order. We definitely plan to come back again. read more

I've been here twice now and both times the food has been good but the wait for it- considering only after being seated- has been very long. This time when we politely asked where our food was, our waitress said it typically takes over an hour for sushi orders to be prepared. I simply cannot understand this, as over an hour for a few rolls is so much longer than any other sushi place I've been to. The tables weren't even totally full, it was after the rush, and for it to regularly take over an hour to get food after ordering is insane. One person's meal (not sushi) came 30 minutes before the rest of the food came, while the rest of us sat around. The staff was pleasant, but we were not prepared for such a long wait. Turning to the actual food, it was solidly decent and probably worthy of 4 stars on its own, but far from the best I've ever had. I think it is one of the best locations in the area for sushi. But I'm sorry to say I can't recommend it unless you really have a sushi craving and go on a slower weeknight. read more

My go to sushi restaurant when I'm in town for business. I visited several other top 4 star and above sushi restaurants in the area but this one stands out. I usually stick to the basics like Salmon Nigiri and add 1-2 specialty rolls. Beware the jalapeños are spicy. I always tell my kids Spicy is fun, which prepares you for the heat! The seaweed salad is also one of my fabulous too. Gray blend of dressing. I'll see you guys at the sushi bar when I'm back in town! read more

This place is without a doubt the best place I've had sushi in MN! The fish was super fresh and some of those sashimi slices practically melts on your tongue. The slices of sashimi were pretty generous too. Started off with appetizers of tune poki and grilled surume squid. The tuna poki had great flavor and even the sushi rice had great flavor! The squid was super yummy. I loved the charred parts of the squid, it added an additional flavor profile that just worked really well. Then my friend and I decided to do the omakase and were given 5 dishes that the chef decided on. Omakase ended with a sushi roll that the chef created for us. Every dish was so good and I can't reiterate enough how fresh the fish was! It's a pretty small place and the wait between dishes did take longer than expected. But the food was worth the wait. I can't wait to be back! read more

This was the second time we dined at Sushi Fix. The first time, we waited forty-five minutes after ordering for our food to arrive. The second, we waited an hour. Our waitress said that the sushi kitchen was understaffed. While I understand that this sometimes happens, it is less reasonable that this happened twice. They should consider hiring more staff if customers often have to wait around an hour for their food. On Tuesday, we arrived around 5:45 pm, and there were just a few tables full. Our waitress did not mention that the sushi would take an unusually long time to arrive, and we did not expect it to. For 45 minutes, nobody came to explain to us that there was a holdup or how long the wait might be. I had to walk over to the waitress to ask. In addition, we had a 3 month old infant in tow (which is not necessarily relevant, but did exacerbate our frustration). Despite the fact that the sushi did taste good, we had a terrible experience. It would have been nice if the waitress had offered some edamame or even peanuts to snack on while we waited. We were not even given an explanation. Small gestures go a long way in this situation, and this was especially disappointing because it was my mom's birthday dinner. I emailed the restaurant my feedback, and received no response. Food is good, but the service is not. read more

One of the best sushi places I've been. Nestled in an unassuming little strip mall, this is serious sushi. Not an inexpensive meal, but well worth it for the quality. read more

I just moved here from Newport Beach and obviously been very spoiled with the array of options there. This was my first time having sushi in Minnesota. I love this place so much!!!! The George Clooney and Boo Boo rolls were absolutely fantastic. I will be back very soon!!! read more

I love you guys!! But, for the love of god, kill the spiders crawling ALL over your overhang right outside your restaurant. I am afraid of taking a few home every time I pick up! :) read more

Not your typical strip mall sushi spot. Definitely exceeded my expectations in terms of food quality. Also, I was very simple with my order...so I wanted to preface that before I go into my review. Hot sake was great...I didn't catch which sake they use but, regardless, it was great. Temp and flavor. Not a huge fan of deep fried gyoza, if it's on the menu, I will judge you by your gyoza. I'm weird like that. Overall, I was impressed...again, I feel like a fried gyoza is the most "American" thing you can do to a dumpling but they didn't ruin it. The pork filling was very fresh and full of flavor...without being overcooked. I also ordered the 2-14 roll...and if you're quick to remember that date, yes, it's a Valentines Day themed roll. It even had pink soy paper!! Flavor and spice were perfect. The roll excellent in all aspects - timely service, fresh and a very distinct taste of each ingredient. Overall experience: chill vibe, great music, friendly service, great sake, good gyoza and great sushi. 4/5 because it didn't blow me away but, it did exceed my expectations. read more

This is my favorite sushi place in the twin cities! The service is second to none. The staff are attentive, offered us samples of sake at the bar, and recommended specialty rolls to us. I love sitting at the bar and watching the chefs prepare the food. The specialty rolls are worth every penny and we love getting a salad to start! The 2-14 and the Jackie Chan roll are my fav! read more

If you're Asian don't go here! They're racist! We asked if we can sit at the bar (1 person) and she (the Asian) gave us a harsh no. They said it'll be a 45 minute wait and for us to wait outside because there was (3) people waiting behind us! Then the Japanese lady came out and rolled her eyes and said we can seat you guys down. She rolled her eyes and said "what ever!" I wished I've would've captured her face. So rude and the Japanese lady could have handled the situation so much better!!! Strongly don't recommend if your Asian! read more

Be warned. Tough fish, extremely slow inattentive service, flat soda (twice and gave up), not kid friendly, unapologetic, lame. AC may have been broken. Heard so much hype to no avail. read more

Only thing that makes me hesitate on the 5-star rating is the VERY long wait that seems to happen regularly (and I'm not talking about waiting to get a table). Fortunately, I've got to give 5 stars for the quality of their sushi rolls as they are all phenomenal. My personal favorite (although recently taken off the menu, but can still be ordered) is the Green Goblin. Order it, you will NOT be disappointed. read more

On 4/27/2021, I felt like I was denied service because I was wearing sweats pants. I asked if there were any room for dine in. She sarcastically stated "no, we're full." I looked around and saw at least 2 tables opened and the bar area had plenty of room. I asked for a time and she stated, "oh, I don't know." Seriously?! You don't know? She then told me to "try later, maybe 730 or something. There was no attempt to find a spot or anything else. I walked out, called the restaurant and to my surprise, was told that the wait time was 20 minutes! Wow! Amazing how your interactions change when you don't see what your customers are wearing/looks like. Just because you're in a predominately white neighborhood, you shouldn't deny service to any other ethnicity. Good luck. read more

The good news for Sushi Fix is its local competition, consisting of Sakana, is typical, bland suburban sushi (2*). For this new spot, "A-OK" is an apt description, though this place can probably reach a 4* rating. Sushi Fix is also notable as the new bricks & mortar location of one of the popular downtown food trucks (which proved a sushi food truck can work); that sushi truck is probably why they open at 4:30 and miss the lucrative lunch hour. For the record, 3* from me is not a "I hate it", I just don't make the wild swings from 1 or 5 that some folks like to do. If you're only looking in the Western Suburbs this is a more than adequate place to get your "sushi fix". As I hinted earlier, there's a lot of mediocre and even bad sushi in the Twin Cities getting great reviews from people who mean well. I think part of it comes from a penchant for rolls that are so overwhelmed by prepackaged sauces that much of it tastes the same. I'm more of a purist, so if you don't like getting nigiri (plain fish on rice) this review may not appeal to your tastes. For my own visit I dove into the nigiri (which requires an understanding of fish flavor, rice, and technique) with a foray into a specialty roll. First of all, the service is good. The head sushi chef was very attentive and talkative to his side of the bar while his assistant, when he showed up, was more subdued. I asked about their training (e.g. where they apprenticed) but the answers, frankly, dodged the question. Oh well, what matters is their skill-set now. I ended up mainly conversing with the server, who was very friendly and knew a fair amount of the menu. The drink selection is adequate. I had a decent daiginjo sake which they serve in the over-pour style into a saucer (which is more bells and whistles than any serious tradition, despite what the server said). Let's talk sushi. The nigiri had one of the strangest issues I've run into: the rice! Sushi rice is considered an art to itself. Some of the most famous sushi restaurants have their own particular method of making it (and even blends of rice). At Sushi Fix the rice is the saltiest rice I've had on sushi. So salty that the rice actually overwhelmed the taste of the more subtly flavored fish. The flavor was so strong that I first began checking the bottom of the nigiri to make sure it hadn't come in contact with the sauce of whatever the chef had been making before. Nope, it's just the rice itself. Even the little dab of wasabi didn't register. This is a shame because the fish was, mostly, fairly good. The fish isn't served cold, which is a good sign. The menu is fairly broad, and they had nearly everything on seasonal but toro. It took a fish as strong as saba (mackerel, which was on the oilier side) to actually balance with the salty power of the rice. Their tamago (omelet) was fine. The uni (sea urchin) they had in was good quality (creamy, rich). There were a handful of miscues: The tako (octopus) was too thin, tasteless and overall very weak. The hotate (scallop) looked good but they had the odd idea of spritzing it with what appeared to be a soy vinegar instead of traditional citrus--it ended up crushing the rice it was on and coming apart. Lobster Roll: the crunchy tempura has a nice, finer texture. The roll itself is a uses cooked lobster, avocado and other stuff that all completely gets lost in the strong sauce. This is a fairly typical "specialty roll": it's a variation of generic spicy, sweet or whatever sauce that's put on with it--with just the slightest hint of the actual ingredients. The salty rice problem? Not an issue here. In fact that probably helps you actually taste the rice. This could include pieces of a boot and it would taste similar. With that said, comparing apples to apples, this is still on the better end of specialty rolls, only because the flavors aren't all turned to mush. I wouldn't say this was worth the $20+ on its own. Despite what the other review who claims ("claims") to have been visiting from Japan (a place I've visited many times) seemed to think, this place--like most American sushi places--pales in comparison to what you can get (for sometimes quire reasonable prices) in Japan. I'd be curious to see how good the nigiri is if they adjust that rice. As of right now it's probably the best sushi option in it's area of the Western Suburbs. For sushi in the Twin Cities, if I'm going to drop $50-$100 per person I'd rather go with Masu in Nordeast. If I can go anywhere in the US, I'd go to Masa in NYC or even BarMasa in Vegas. read more

Hmm..where to begin with this review. As much as it hurts me to say this, I feel I hyped up this placed a little too much, and it only deserves 3 stars. *GASP* I mean I really wanted to like this place because I enjoyed the food truck A LOT but in all honesty this place is mediocre in my books. As a self-proclaimed sushi snob, I will explained why this place needs a little more help. So brace yourself, this may come off a little harsh, and I do apologize. First rule of thumb, never ever ever let your bed of sushi rice fall a part as it is being picked up NEVER.... Not only does this show poor craftsmanship, this is the first rule of thumb for any sushi chef. Not only that, but the sockeye salmon was flaking apart on top. Ughhh. Second why is the rice still warm? It should be to a certain degree but not to a point where the fish's natural flavor is masked by the heat of the rice. NG, not good. I honestly couldn't tell you how disappointed I was with this place. Okay, maybe the other reviews like the atmosphere and overall friendliness of the staff, great...awesome...A+ but what about the food? I guess this is what you get, when it comes to sushi in Minnesota...overpriced piece of fish. read more

I'm a Sushi fanatic and hit every Sushi restaurant in every town I'm in. Sushi Fix is my favorite Sushi restaurant in all of America. Even the coasts. Every single roll they offer is incredibly good. They have new unique rolls every week, which keeps me coming back. Yes, it's a little more expensive, but it's worth every penny because they are not chintzy with their sushi cuts (big, thick slices). One small thing I wish they'd change is that I also love beer with my Sushi and $9 beers are too steep for me. I'd go a lot more if the $9 beer was in a larger glass or they changed the regular beer down to $5 or $6. If you like Japanese Whiskey, My God does Sushi Fix have the selection. Every one I've had has been amazing. All kinds of Saki available. All-in-all a wonderful restaurant. It is so unique. Fantastic atmosphere, wonderful employees and the owner (Billy) is an incredibly interesting young entrepreneur. Conversations with him are worth the price of admission. I promise that you'll leave with a big smile on your face. read more

Awesome! Just tell Billy to make something great and you are in terrific hands. Rock solid! read more

Sushi Fix - Silly Billy Roll at Sushi Fix - Sushi Bars Near Me - Wayzata, Minnesota

See all

You know, it wasn't bad by any means but I'm torn between 3 and 4 stars. The restaurant itself is nice albeit a little crowded. If you're there with just one other person, the tables are so close next to you and behind you that you're almost a part of everyone else's conversations. I won't include that in my rating since I guess that's really more of a personal preference. First off, the good: -Great atmosphere -Easy parking, even on a Saturday night -Very fresh sushi The not-so-good: -The service -The price -The service The food was great, don't get me wrong, but for what you get, you're paying $3-$4 more per roll than most other places in the country with a similar menu and quality. On average I spend around $100 before tip on a date at a sushi restaurant but don't normally leave still hungry. Unfortunately not the case here. The most disappointing aspect of this restaurant to me was the service. Maybe someone didn't show up for their shift or they're currently understaffed, not really sure, but when you're charging upscale prices you should offer at least average service. My water glass was empty before our food even arrived and it was never filled. I would have said something to the waitress before I was done with my meal but I couldn't find her! Getting the bill was an even longer wait. Overall, the food was good but between the service and the price, this definitely won't be my new "go to" sushi place in Minneapolis. read more

Sushi was good, but we purchased the Omakase meal for $75, and it was boring and took them 1 hr between first plate and the second plate of sushi. Because the service was horrible it took us 2.5 hrs to complete our meal. They were closing when we got our last course, so we had to take the rest of our sushi home in a box. I will not be back. read more

Omakase was a pretty cool experience. Never put complete faith in a chef to put out whatever he wants before. Had a little trouble with the poached egg on the first course but it was yummy when I finally was able to grip it with my chopsticks. The fried jalapeno dish was pretty spicy even for me and I normally can handle a pretty high degree. The sashimi slices seemed fresh and melted in my mouth. Was less impressed with the rolls though. Was quite spendy at $50 and some of my friends weren't even full after the 5 courses. They ordered some shrimp tempura udon. I ordered a beef udon which was still yummy the next day. It was thoughtful how they packed the noodles and broth seperate...even giving me a small container of flakes (forget what they are called but it's made of some kind of seafood...perhaps shrimp?). Overall the ambiance was intimate and it was a great place to have a fun girl's night. read more

Don't let the name or strip mall location scare you off! We NEVER venture outside of Mpls or St Paul for sushi but we did after reading a recent review of Sushi Fix. Well let me tell you it was well worth the drive. The Screaming O roll is the BEST sushi roll in MN hands down! The blend of ingrediance with the smokey grilled flavor and the raw fish is an eye rolling experience! The agadashi tofu and hamachi kama are also a party in your mouth! You cannot go to Sushi Fix without trying a Japanese whiskey, Japanese craft beer or single malt scotch! For a light and refreshing cocktail I recommend Happy Endings...mmm. Billy the owner makes them with the utmost care and he is a charming host! Dan the bartender is also a great host! We will be back again without a doubt! Thank you Sushi Fix for a delightful experience! read more

I am not sure what all the hype is about... I saw "Best Sushi Minneapolis 2013" in the City Pages with references to Jiro Dreams of Sushi even... Great reviews on yelp also so I had high hopes. The sushi was good but not amazing and very overpriced. The majority of specialty rolls are well over $15 and some over $20... At that price I expect perfection and sadly it almost invites a harsher review. The best part of Sushi fix is Billy. He is very friendly and always creative. I would probably give this place another star if it wasn't in a strip mall with horrible parking. read more
