    We have been coming here on & off over the years. Everything is very consistent from food to service. Which reflects in how busy they get in the evening. Our most recent visit was a Thursday night & they were extremely busy. The restaurant itself is a nice size & can seat many customers. From cute nook window seating, booths, tables & of course the sushi bar. The sushi is fresh & well prepared. The service is quick & attentive. Will continue to visit with the sushi crave hits.

    Valentine's dinner with my sweetheart. Sushi Garden never disappoints. Still the number 1 sushi restaurant in Alaska and the cinnamon tea is heavenly as always!

    Envy Roll
    Danielle V.

    Very friendly Korean lady greeted me. After taking my take out order, she seated me at the bar with a cup of hot tea. The atmosphere was nice (quiet, not super bright, and clean). Ordered the envy and crunch rolls. The envy was awesome. The crunch roll was on par with other crunch rolls. Both rolls had more filling (less rice) than usual which was great. When my order was done (which including a complementary cup of miso soup) the elderly lady wished me a nice Sunday. She seemed like a super sweet lady and she made my day. Definitely a place to check out in south Anchorage!

    Sushi here is great. It is fairly expensive compared to other local places but convenient if you live near Huffman / South Anchorage. I am giving 4 stars because I have gotten some Of their combo boxes and was not a fan of their Chicken Teriyaki and a few other combos. The soup is good, but their salads are usually really watered down so lacking a lot of flavor. Service is great. They are attentive and fast. Food comes out quickly. I like sitting at the sushi bar and just letting the Chef whip up whatever he's in the mood of making for me. Never had a bad piece of sushi. Would recommend!

    Sweet shorty roll and ikura sushi
    Nicole R.

    It pains me to update a review to give a lower rating than the initial review, but sometimes places go downhill. I came here again for the first time in years and was overall disappointed. The pros: The interior is clean and comfortable. You get miso soup, salad, and warm hand towels, which not many sushi restaurants do these days. The waitresses are a little *too* attentive in my opinion. When I was there, several of them wehovering around at any given moment. Also we got the check before my boyfriend got his food, but they took it away when I said his food hadn't arrived yet. Minor mistake but a little awkward. Sweet Shorty roll: Disappointingly small slices of fish on top, hardly any mango sauce. Imitation crab unfortunately. Felt like grocery store sushi. Ikura sushi: Advertised as $7.85 on the menu but ended up being $11.95 on the check so they need to update their menu prices. I know Alaska restaurant prices tend to be more expensive than other states but this is ridiculous. I can get the same thing in the lower 48 for half price for better quality and portion size. It was decent enough. Chicken katsu don: Waitress felt need to explain difference between this and regular chicken katsu (this comes in a bowl with chicken katsu on top of rice and vegetables with an egg whereas katsu comes with just rice) even though it's clearly written in the menu, but maybe that's because of other customers not knowing the difference. This was far better than the sushi. Tempura green tea ice cream: Not bad, a little heaving on the breading in my opinion. I wouldn't come here again except maybe for the chicken katsu don, but if another restaurant in town has it I'd rather go there.

The service is very quick, I found my party seated in an instance and checked on in a consistent, but not annoying amount. Our food was well priced for it being Anchorage, the portions were what I would expect and all in all the food was tasty. I really look forward to coming back here!

    We hadn't been in a while, so we were invited by our daughter and her new husband out for dinner…read moreand a movie. I really liked the way they had the inside decor, it was really set up nicely. I was looking at the beverage menu saw, Sapporo, okay great beer for a Sushi experience. I guess after looking over the Sushi offerings, it was hard to find a clean roll. Clean roll, to me means, no imitation crab in their roll. The one clean roll was the Spider Roll which we got 2 of. Of the 5 rolls we got the Spider was the favorite to me, I got the Hot Lava Roll not my favorite, but my wife ordered the Crazy Devil Roll it was good, and another clean roll was what my daughter got the 911 Roll. We all shared amongst the 3 of us. Something else missing was, miso soup or a ginger salad staples at Japanese Sushi places. Daughter's husband got Teriyaki Chicken, not a sushi guy Lol! I did get him to eat 1/2 a Spider Roll piece. Overall a 3.5 for Sushi, but ambiance 4.5. What I'd like more is clean sushi offerings, Naruto style, and a must have Unagi (Eel), Sweet Shrimp w/deep fried heads, Toro (Yellow Fin Tuna), and maybe some Alaskan Crab! Imitation crab is for newbie/beginners. Also too many offerings of cooked Tempura Shrimp added to many raw rolls. Elevate your Sushi Game!

    This was our third time ordering the shabu-shabu, and it continues to deliver. On a cold day, this…read moreis exactly the kind of meal that makes sense--warming, steady, and satisfying without trying too hard. The space has a modern Japanese minimalist aesthetic--clean lines, warm lighting, and a refined calm that feels both welcoming and quietly upscale. It's thoughtfully designed without being cold, striking a balance between contemporary elegance and comfort. Shabu-shabu here is on the pricier side, but the portioning justifies it. The small shabu-shabu easily feeds three to four people, especially when shared properly, and nothing about it felt skimpy or rushed. Three visits in, it continues to deliver!

    We used to come here when this place was Peter's Sushi Spot, the inside has not changed hugely…read moresince then, except maybe for the hot plates on the tables, should you wish to have shabu shabu. The hot plates are spotlessly clean, I did notice, and there were instructions on the wall on how to cook shabu shabu. We used to come for the Tempura Udon which was spectacular. We were seated very quickly, and water was brought out. I decided to go with my benchmark dish, which always gives me some idea of whether I will return or not, and ordered chicken fried rice, husband got the tempura udon, so he could compare with the previous Udon we used to get here. I noticed that their soft drinks are only $2 which is an excellent price in my opinion. I got a Canada Dry as I love ginger ale. His Udon came out quite quickly, and we could instantly tell that the broth did not have the same depth of flavour, as when we used to come here, (it was quite smoky and very umami) and this one has a distinctly seaweed tang. Thats not to say that it's bad, it's just different. The noodles are also not quite so dense, chewy or toothsome. Additionally the tempura was somewhat of a letdown. The shrimps were very slimline compared to the display on the tv. There was an onion ring, that was also quite thin. Just not a good representation of tempura. Also, comparing with the Udon that used to be here, you also got a cup of miso soup, and a small salad with a carrot orange dressing. Those are gone. As for my chicken fried rice, well the presentation was excellent, it came on a beautiful plate, and looked very appetizing. The first couple of bites were really nice, plenty of carrots, broccoli, chicken, however I soon started encountering tender crisp onions. Which I cannot eat. They give me violent stomach pains. I can only eat onions that have been cooked down to almost mush. Anything raw or that has any element of crunch to it is a no-go, as it will make me ill. I found it somewhat unusual, as I get fried rice all over town and have never encountered chunky onions before. I'm sure I could have asked them to leave them out had I known they were going to be in there. It tasted good, for sure, but having to continually move the onions aside (and there was a lot of onions) was offputting. Normally when i get fried rice, I eat some, and take the rest in a to go box. I did not take the rest home this time which is very telling. Anyway, service was excellent, and they were very attentive - for instance our server saw that my husband was giving me a spoonful of his udon, and without being asked he came over with an extra spoon, small bowl, and a ladle, which I thought was very thoughtful. I cannot fault the staff.

The revolving belt was always jam packed with both savoury,…read moreand sweet dishes, and Ramune drinks, which intrigue me, with the little glass ball in the top. Then of course, covid put paid to the dishes on the belt, but they still had the main menu, which does have a lot of dishes on, to be fair. Well i heard recently they had restarted the belt, so i was eager to go back and we went last night. Usually i like to sit at the bar because i feel more immersed in the experience, however we were shown to a table. That's not a big deal though - as long as i can reach the plates, it's all good. It's quite a big space, and has an airy feel. We were promptly given (ice) water. Which of course is standard in most restaurants but i don't drink it if it's got ice. We ordered drinks (Pepsi - no ice, please) and told our server we'd be dining from the belt, and could i have some Wasabi. She brought that quickly for me. I now know that i must mix my wasabi with soy sauce, i learned a long time ago, with a nostril searing experience when i first came to the USA "Ooh look at the pretty green stuff!" I learned that the pretty green stuff has an unexpected and vicious effect when you breathe out through your nose. The selection was definitely not as good as pre-covid, however, we were one of the 1st diners, and as the restaurant started to fill up, the chef was adding more dishes to the belt. The dishes however were as good as i remember. Yes, it's Westernized Sushi, and not a true Japanese authentic Sushi experience, where you sit at a bar, and a Sushi Master with 40 years experience makes your dishes right before your eyes, and personally hands them to you, one after the other, no choices involved - you get what he gives you, and no mixing your wasabi with your soy - he puts a smear on the piece itself if he feels it needs it. Man i love watching those shows!! Anyway, i was happy to have my revolving sushi again, and i forgot to take pictures, so there's the plates. Domo Arigato!!

    Ended up coming here for dinner on a random Tuesday. Service was HORRIBLE. It was not busy at all…read more We sat down after another couple had arrived and they were greeted and were able to order and get their food fairly quickly. It took 10 minutes to get our drinks and another 10-15 minutes to get our order taken. We had to ask a random server to take our order since we have been waiting a while. On top of that, no server checked up on our table nor did they ask if we wanted any refills. There were literally servers just walking around, not doing anything. On top of that we had to ask someone to get our check because we were just done. Never eating here again if the service is like this. The orange chicken was good and so was the mongolian beef. Sashimi tasted fresh as well.

    I'm thinking the quality has gone downhill…read more We used to come here about every other week but since moving across town we come more so for "special occasions". We came in on Saturday around 4pm. We were seated right away, and handed menus. No one came to get our drink order for about 12 minutes, we had decided that at the 15 minute mark we would leave and go somewhere else. After getting drinks, two sodas. We put in our order. A mango roll and orange chicken with rice. Aside from our food being brought to our table no one came to check on us again. Our $3 sodas never got refilled. Our water never got refilled. The mango roll was really good. But the orange chicken was really bland. In the past I would rave about the orange chicken here. This meal was a total let down. The chicken had minimal flavor, the orange sauce they used appeared poured on at the end and watered down.
