Stop what you are doing. Get in your car. Drive to this restaurant. Enjoy some of the best Asian food you have ever had. Last night was the first night I had ever eaten here. It was absolutely incredible. Not only was the food delicious, the proportions were very large. In fact, I had a hard time even finishing my meal. This was one of those meals where with each bite you a comment to the person you're with how incredible the food is. read more

Great food and friendly service. It was my first time here but I'll definitely be a regular. I recommend the portobello mushroom roll. Outstanding read more

I love this place so much and have been going here since it first opened, but I was given awful customer services on a simple order mistake. I took it back (and this is the first time I've ever taken anything back) and I was told (and I quote), "you need to pay better attention next time so we don't waste our food." As a person who also works in customer service It's just common sense to treat your customers with respect and to take fault for your mistake. Not to blame it on your paying customer. read more

Awesome service. Delicious sushi. Definitely a hole in the wall kind of place. Food tasted very fresh and portions were average.

Crab Rangoon and Hot n Sour delicious. Wish I could say that for the Chicken fried rice which was burnt. The Teriyaki plate was cold and stale. Never had a bad meal there. Today was absolutely awful. Sad we brought friends there to try it out and we ordered the same entree. Both awful. Usually order Ginger Beef and a Chicken vegetable dish that are always delicious . Was there on August 14, 2023 at 2 pm read more

Best dishes in town~ all the delicious sauces are homemade, the owner put lots of work in the food as you see. My favourite is Teriyaki dishes, yummy! read more

Still the best sushi in the Cedar Rapids area by far. The service/atmosphere is a family owned business feeling. They treat you well and always keep your water full which is a necessity in case I accidentally swallow too much wasabi. The restaurant has nice decor. The presentation of the rolls are so beautiful that I almost don't want to eat them, but I know it tastes even better so I always end up giving into temptation. The food is consistently amazing and you can get plenty of things off the menu for a reasonable price. Over 3/4 of the rolls on their menu are $5 or less. The rolls have less pieces then most sushi restaurants I go to but the rolls are much bigger so it ends up being the same amount. They have a good selection of warm/cooked roll in case you don't like raw fish. They also serve a variety of Japanese and Chinese dishes if you aren't a fan of sushi but if you have only try sushi at buffets or prepackaged at your local grocery store then PLEASE try it here because you don't know what you are missing until you taste good sushi. CAUTION: Having a taste of good sushi can lead to life long sushi cravings...I know from a first hand experience. So last Sunday, my boyfriend and I ordered the Honey Roll, the Salmon Tempura Maki, the Spider Roll and the Spicy Tuna Crunch Roll (the special that night) along with Edamame (served warm). Not only did we leave stuffed (we could barely finish all the rolls), we only spend $26 which is cheap for two people eating good sushi. My favorite roll is the Honey Roll (tempura shrimp, squash, cream cheese and mayo) by far. Best part is it only $4.50!!!! I could order just four Honey Rolls and leave a happy woman. The other rolls were very good except the Spider Roll. The Spider Roll was ok, but I wouldn't get it again. The next time I am in the area, I am going to try their hot and sour soup which I hear is unforgettable. read more

The Best Sushi place in Cedar Rapids and would compete very well with any others around! Some amazing sushi and excellent Chinese food, make Sushi House one of the best spots in town. And in a landlocked place like Iowa, it is a very impressive find! The simple decor is just right for a place that is quite busy on any given night! Appetizers: A must try are the Volcano scallop! Sushi: King Tuna (off the menu) is amazing, and so is the Manhattan roll. The sashimi is also very good! Chinese: Almost anything on the menu read more

Sushi House - First time having the Happy Eel roll! Delicious! - Japanese Near Me - Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Best sushi/sashimi around town. Love coming here for their lunch boxes. The sushi box comes with a pretty large portion of food. Sushi, nigiri, salad, lots of fried vegetable tempura (that comes with a sauce to dip it in), and oranges. Pretty filling lunch for a good price. And my favorite, the sashimi box ... the best salmon sashimi I have ever tasted! Love the thick thunks of fatty goodness. Comes with a few types of sashimi, salad, california rolls, edamame (yum!), and oranges! FYI these lunch boxes come with a soup too. Second best food here - the Mandarin Stuffed Eggplant (in the Chinese food section). The eggplant is stuffed with shrimp i think .. maybe more things inside. Anyway, it's saucy and crispy!! (must eat right away for full effect). My husband loves the Pork Katsu Don and never fails to get this when he comes. Unfortunately it's only on the dinner menu now ... but this doesn't stop him to order it when he comes for lunch too. Pork Katsu ... with onions and eggs in a sweet .. saucy sauce .. over rice! Staff is nice, friendly. Great service. Decor makes the restaurant a peaceful, warm setting. And also, the chefs/sushi chef can carve up really cool designs with their oranges sometimes :). read more

Love. That's really the best thing to be said about Sushi House. You like sushi? Go here! You like American Chinese food? Go here! You like Japanese food? GO HERE! lol!

Now this place should be all over Corridor area!!! The lunch special are a steal!!!! The food and prices are a match made in the sky for this guy!!!!! Sushi is something new every time I come into this place. So many to choose from people!!! I'll be here for lunch tomorrow read more

Fifteen years ago Sushi House was the one and only sushi joint in Cedar Rapids. Then, it was worth the 20 minute drive from the NE side. Now, too many good sushi restaurants between my house and Sushi House keep me away and so today's visit was after many, many years. I hit it up at 2:25 p.m. on a weekday with only 5 minutes to spare to get the lunch specials that end at 2:30 p.m. The server moved quickly to get my order in the system before the clock kicked me out. She continued to be attentive, efficient, and friendly throughout my visit and I give the place 5 stars for service (granted, there were only 4 tables occupied.). I got the California Combo Bento Box which turned out to be three times the amount of food I could eat at lunch. Good combo of hot foods (miso soup and tempura) and cold food (Cali roll, 3 large pieces sashimi, salad, and orange slices). I ordered hot tea as my drink and didn't get charged, so it must be complimentary. Food was good, not amazing, not bad, good. I give it 3.5 stars. The tempura batter was a bit bland and the salad needed some kind of seasoning. The sashimi was excellent and bigger than expected size, and the California Roll seemed more robust than at other sushi places. Way too much food for one person, however, and none of it would make for a good leftover meal. So, I recommend sharing a lunch combo. I still won't make the trip to that side of town for sushi, but if I'm in the neighborhood, I will return. read more

I love the chicken teriyaki roll and the staff are so polite and the place is beautiful and I love there crab ragoons and egg drop soup

The sushi was pedestrian. Wait staff was ok, but didn't quite give diners the attention needed to ensure customers had a good dining experience--for example, ensuring we had tamari on the table when the sushi arrived...had to fetch it ourselves; we had to remind waitstaff about our drinks, which came late. The restaurant was not busy, but staff there looked as if they were scrambling the whole time. That said, we'd try it again, if in town, just because there were no big fails. Overall, significant room for improvement. read more

Food was just o.k. Ordered 3 different Chinese entrees , most of entrees were mostly vegetables ,not much meat. Potstickers and crab Rangoon were not good. Waaay overpriced.People who work there are very rude. Will not return. read more

Kani salad is divine! So is the sashimi. I've been here countless times. One of the best

Best place for Chinese and Japanese food. Love going here. Not very expensive. Quick and easy every time.

Quality sushi house on the south side of Cedar Rapids. They offer a big menu of both sushi and entrees. I've eaten here a few times and have had a good experience there. They do a great job during the lunch rush of getting the food out on time, I haven't had any issues with food taking too long. I felt the fish was of pretty good quality and they were very organized, nice restaurant overall at this local hot spot. read more

Yuuuummmmmmmmmmmmm.... Had their pick up food last night. They just opened for pickup ONLY after a corona-related shutdown. They were flooded, but had the kinks worked out if you paid attention. I ordered a bit before six, online, but had to call in to see when it would be ready. I pulled in at 7:10 and there was a long line of folks who were jumping the gun. However a moment later I got a call, walked up to the front, signed my slip and headed home. This was good sushi. It was fresh, and creamy, and just well-balanced. We split a Tuna Maki, a Spicy Tuna Roll, a Negihawa, an Unakyu, a Dragon and a Black Dragon Roll. The Dragon Roll was nuts. The fish on top was just so pure and good, melting on your tongue like... not fish. Tender, with such a gentle flavor. We liked everything else too - the Black Dragon was cool, with the flipped salmon skin and eel sauce. The Unakyu roll was also a favorite. And they didn't skimp on wasabi, which we were concerned about. Another amazing date night at home with corona. Good work Sushi House for a successful (re)open. read more

Who's ever heard of deep fried Chicken Teriyaki. In 10 years of travelling the US never came across this once so when I unwittingly ordered (all other Teriyaki dishes not deep fried???) I was very surprised. After already 3 times eating in this restaurant in 1 week, the manager refused to replace or take it back so consequently left hungry / $22 dollars down for a bowl of cold rice and a beer! Nice read more

The food was good, the prices are amazing, and the waitress was awesome. The only issue was when we ordered some Octopus tentacles they were basically just shavings, while the picture showed thick pieces. Bathrooms were also exceptionally clean. read more

Advertised on GrubHub but did not honor order. Wasted time and repeatedly hung up on me when I tried to call and resolve issue.

GREAT food & they do lots of fun things with sushi like serving in a wooden boat! Great staff & they do lots of takeout.

Ate here last night had the best service I've had in Cedar Rapids in a long time!!! Tried the Boom Boom roll off the specials board and it was to die for!! As well as the cucumber salad! My friends had the mandarin stuffed eggplant and the crispy chicken! Everything was amazing. Can't wait till I come back to this amazing family ran local business!! We also enjoyed a New York roll and a Manhattan roll! read more

Definitely not the best sushi in town, and the service is sorely lacking. Really the only reason I come back to Sushi House is because it's close to my moms and I like the snow mountain roll. The guy who is usually at the front counter is just plain rude. Yes, I get it, you want to look busy, but there is no need to be rude. Last night after placing a to-go order I sat down in one of the chairs to wait. He literally dropped my food on the counter and walked away. Um, is that mine? Apparently the look on my face showed my confusion and he says from 10 feet away "snow mountain roll!" like I'm bothering him. I just assumed the other items I'd order for me and mom were in there, and if they weren't I wasn't about to deal with the jerk about it. I promise not to bother you again, young man. read more

I was surprised to find decent sushi in Iowa. Please, the emphasis is on the word, sushi. Sure there are decent everything (burgers, Chinese food...) in Iowa, but trying to find a good sushi joint here is like trying to find water in the Death Valley. You gotta just keep looking and hoping that every restaurant you try is not just a mirage (based on reviews). And when I am just about to give up hope, I think (I hope) I've found a little pool of salvation at the Sushi House. I had the sashimi bento with an order of Uni (sea urchin). The fish was a 7 piece salmon, tuna, snapper combination. It was average-plus (6-7/10, 10 being the best), but once again, I'm reminded that I'm land locked. It certainly matches if not beats the top 3 sushi places in Iowa city. The Uni is my litmus test. It takes a whole lot of courage to try it in the Midwest, because its like kissing on the first date, you either want to get naked or want to rinse your mouth out with rubbing alcohol (please do not do this -its toxic, that's what the EMT told me). So, the uni was sweet and was not off colored. I'm not ready to totally get naked, but certainly I wouldn't mind ordering it again. I don't know about the rest of the Indo-asian food at this place, but the quality of sushi has passed my test. Next time, I will return to wade a little longer in this pool of water with a bigger appetite. Overall, the prices were good. Looking around the establishment, 30-50% of the patrons were mostly Chinese, so its a mark of a good value. If you come to CR for the sushi, please Google a map of CR for a geography lesson. If you understand that CR is not near any large body of ocean, you might just have found a little piece of sushi paradise at the Sushi House. Note: Like what other reviews said, this location is in a strip mall and its not a super fancy place. So take the girl your want to marry, not the one you want to lie to. read more

Sushi is not good i would not recommend i ordered a spider roll and i received sushi filled with crab shells with a huge piece of avocado and their california roll the meat was to a minimum i could only taste the avocado and when i questioned the manager she was rude read more

I haven't been here in a few months, but the hostess recognized me right away on a busy Friday night. I was the first in my party to arrive, but she even remembered that I usually dine with my wife and daughter and got me a table in less than 10 minutes. We ordered a crunch roll and a honey roll, our favorites, and both were delicious. The Mandarin Stuffed Eggplant was equally tasty as usual. After seeing a recent trend in negative reviews here, I had to see for myself if they've fallen off a little. My conclusion is Sushi House is as reliable as ever for great food and service. We noticed the wait staff has not turned over in years, all the same faces as well as most of the sushi chefs, which is a good sign. I like that the wait staff will help with all of the tables in the area, not just "their" tables. This makes for higher efficiency and better overall service. The only thing we could figure out is Sushi House may be a victim of their own success. As word has spread about this wonderful little restaurant, they have gotten busier. And in the rush of a busy night waits can get longer and diners get crankier. We have always received very friendly service and the food is consistently excellent. Still our #1 restaurant in Cedar Rapids. read more

Our favorite in town! So much so, we pass at least 3 other sushi places and drive across town for their food. Portion and prices are in line with similar restaurants. The service is so good, it's shocking. Atmosphere is meh, but the taste and service make it easy to overlook. Get here and get some sushi. read more

Maybe I was there on an off day, but I was incredibly underwhelmed by Sushi House. We got there at eleven to beat the lunch rush (it picks up like crazy from 11:30-1.) and we were sat right away. There were three of us. We waited a good twenty minutes to be greeted by our waiter, waited another ten for drinks, and then our food came out at random intervals after that. It was a "eat or wait for your friends to get their food and yours will be ice cold by the time theirs arrives" situation. The people next to us, who were seated after us, all had their food long before us. I had my food, another friend had half of their food, and another friend had zero food. Finally, a half hour after I had gotten my food, she flagged our waiter and asked where her food was. The waiter just told her they hadn't made it yet. About another ten minutes later, her food arrived. It was a good thing we didn't have any meetings to get back to in the office. Our lunch took almost two hours! I got the teriyaki chicken box, and it was disgusting. The fried rice was greasy, and their were more onions than chicken--the big gross slimy kinds of onions. How cheap to fill a plate with onions instead of meat. There was zero flavoring on the chicken either, or it was incredibly watered down. I will never eat there again. read more

Wasn't terrible, staff was responsive we just didn't have a good time with the people we sat next too.

I have now eaten here twice. Both times on Saturday at lunch. Both times the service has been bad. The first time I was dining with my sister. It took almost 15 minutes for someone to even take a drink order. Both of us ordered off the lunch menu. I had fried rice and my sister had something with California rolls. My food arrive in a reasonable time. My sister had to wait about 15 more minutes for her food. The server told me that was just the way things were at their restaurant. If you like to finish you food before your lunch companions get served then this is your kind of place. The second time I was also with my sister. This time it was 17.5 minutes for a drink order to be taken. Our food did come together since we ordered something to share. It was one of the boats. I don't recall the exact menu name. I'll given any restaurant 2 chances. The food wasn't good enough to justify the wait, especially considering it was not even close to busy. read more

Best sushi in town. I have tried many of their rolls and haven't been let down. For sushi, the price is just right. I grew up in Houston and have a small sense for what sushi should taste like too. Tastes fresh every time. For the fearful, I'd go with some of the traditional entrees which are also tasty and really good. The fried rice portions are huge for less than $7. I don't typically order fried rice when I go out because I can cook it at home but I'd make an exception here. The staff has always been friendly and never given me any issues. read more

The food is served creatively and always yummy. I don't particularly like their Chicken Teriyaki though, but that's okay because I like everything else in their menu. When I used to live closer, we would come about twice a week. The food is affordable and we always get full. The staff is very friendly and they already know us. I think this place has the best sushi in Iowa. Try the "Spicy Tuna Crunch" or "White Tuna Crunch". read more
