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

In my opinion this is close to the best restaurant in Cedar Rapids. We started going when it first opened up and wondered if it would really make it on the west side of Cedar Rapids. Well it's done just that, by way of its excellent food. I'm not the biggest fan of Sushi, but if I go for lunch I usually get the Bento box with Sushi. Thankfully the menu expands beyond that, with a number of Chinese specialties. My favorite entree on the menu is the Ginger Crispy Beef. The flavor is phenomenal and its amazing how crispy those little pieces of beef really are. read more

Terrible service, ok food. Waited for 15-20 minutes for menus without getting drink orders taken. Drink orders weren't taken until we ordered our food 10 minutes later. Waiter was annoyed our party of 7 was on 3 tickets. Food came out so far apart 1 friend was almost done with her entree before the last people received their food. Waiter never came back to check on how the food was or for refills. He just showed up with the checks, essentially booting us out. He wasn't just a bad waiter, he was flat out rude. Food was not good enough to make up for it. Do yourself a favor, just go to Oyama. Infinitely better all around. read more

The first time I dined here, I got my favorite sushi plus the Mandarin stuffed eggplant. I was more than full with the generous portions of each that I received. Service is fast, friendly and efficient. But if you want the star of the Chinese side of the menu, the star of the menu is the Mandarin Stuffed Eggplant. The eggplant is rolled around the crab/shrimp mixture like a larger piece of dim sum, then pan fried and served with a delicious brown sauce. Completely deLISH! read more

I love their food! That being said the service has always left something to be desired. Most recently we arrived at 9pm to eat sushi in restaurant. Within 5 minutes the owner warned us to decide very soon since the sushi bar was closing. We were waiting for another person. We decided but the owner again warned us that the extra person might not get to order. This was 5 minutes later & our 3rd at the table arrived as the owner was issuing the warning. I understand closing times & sushi is typically not that time consuming to assemble. I've worked in restaurant management & it doesn't matter how good the food is if the service is annoying would you enjoy your meal? The meal was good, but vacuuming & spraying cleaners while I'm eating doesn't make for great atmosphere. I guess don't come later than 1 hour before stated closing. read more

We were in town for the Iowa High School Robotics. So granddaughter wanted Sushi so looked online and found Sushi House. What a great find. Our server was outstanding. As we had never been here he recommended some outstanding rolls for us. Everyone was pleased with the selections. I would highly recommend this establishment if you are looking for some outstanding sushi in the area read more

Sushi House - Japanese Near Me - Cedar Rapids, Iowa

SO GOOD. I wish there were more stars to give because WOW. If you're a picky eater, there is bound to be something here for you. The menu is quite large with not only sushi but many other Chinese and Japanese entrees. I typically go here for the sushi/sashimi and have yet to have anything I haven't liked. My current fav is the shiitake mushroom roll. The lightly fried mushrooms are rolled up with scallions and doused in just the right amount of eel sauce. Drool. The service has always been speedy and pleasant on my many visits. Oh, and the cost can't be beat. So much quality food for an affordable price. If you're into sushi, I definitely recommend you make time to visit this restaurant. You will not be disappointed! read more

Sushi House is a reliable place. I usually stick to sushi here, although I did venture to the other offerings on the menu and tried their chicken teriyaki once, not so good, and our fried rice wasn't the tastiest. But I do like the atmosphere and the service has always been attentive but not overly so...nice happy medium. Down-to-earth place. I've seen the "sushi boats" and really want to get one sometime because the presentation is awesome!! read more

Great spring rolls. Always get the tempura shrimp rolls and like the cold noodle appetizer with peanut sauce too. I usually get the pad thai or low mein. I've liked everything I've tried here so far. read more

Sushi House - Ginger crispy beef - Japanese Near Me - Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Best sushi in CR, for what it's worth. Food comes quickly, is relatively well made, and they manage to make hot food and sushi quite well. Service is usually great. Every time I've gone with the exception of the last time I went, I've had great service. Specifically the young Asian man in his early to mid-20's is pretty rude. He should learn how to speak to people properly. A specific example was when he came by to refill our water, he held out his hand, and just said, "Water." He never smiled, and would remove food from the table without asking, and actually he removed the food by approaching the table, not saying a word, lightly pushing your hand out of the way and taking the plate. He also forgot silverware and chopsticks, when he harriedly dropped (yes DROPPED) the food on our table and walked off. He didn't circle back to see how things were going. We had to flag down a competent waiter to help us out. He really has no business being a waiter. The old woman we often see there was good at making things easier on him. Seriously though, great restaurant, just fire the jerk in his 20's. read more

I am not going to write this comparing it to my favorite sushi places in California, because that would be unfair. However, it was surprisingly good for a landlocked state. I am impressed how they do quite well with what they have available. We were not fans of the specialty rolls or the fish, but I was highly satisfied with the basic rolls and also the unexpected. Rolls with tempura squash? Awesome! Not sushi, but were very tasty. Also, the Love Boat made me die from happiness. I have been missing avocado and it was a perfect dish of avocado and spicy tuna pieces. Service was wonderful and I am also looking forward to trying more of their unique rolls. We can't wait to return! read more

This is the best sushi house in cedar rapids. It definitely beats Oyama in my opinion. The Sushi is cheap and the service is great! I come here every other day! read more

We love this place. Come back often but usually will avoid the dinner rush on Fridays and Saturdays. There is usually no problems being seated after 7:30pm. Never had anything bad, and the menu pricing allows you to sample many of the appetizers without breaking your budget. The Crab Rangoon, Hot and Sour Soup and Squid Salad are the best I have ever had anywhere! I have never been disappointed with anything ordered. I read some others complain about not getting meals arriving at the same time to the tables, but what they don't know is that is how many Asian restaurants serve, especially sushi restaurants. Oh yeah, the sushi has always been fresh and wonderfully presented. The service is always good with the owner frequently bringing out meals or stopping by to check on diners. The only bad thing I can say is that if you order carryout, check your order. Had a big order messed up even after checking in....but others a great place to eat. read more

This place is a hidden gem in Cedar Rapids. We routinely drive over an hour to eat here. The food is great, top notch quality. Always fresh, and the waitstaff are amazing. read more

Quite simply the best sushi house in CR. The veggie bento box is excellent and I have never left there hungry! I have eaten there about 3 times this past week and have received good service with great food quality. I can only comment on the sushi quality as I have not ordered from the Chinese menu. However, their miso soup is great (not too salty, even though traditional miso tends to be quite salty) and I loved their osuimono (clear soup). There is definitely a focus on good quality food, and the waitstaff is friendly! Excellent place for a business lunch or a date night! read more

Resteraunt is usually very good and I love the food but just recently got a chicken teriyaki and it definitely was pork katsu teriyaki that they brought me, when I was told it was chicken I explained it didn't taste like chicken at all and it didn't. I refused to eat it or take it home and they refused to remake it and also didn't want to take it off my tab until we really adamantly insisted. Not sure if it was just a bad day for them or not but usually the place is really good. read more

Sushi House - Definitely not chicken - Japanese Near Me - Cedar Rapids, Iowa

I've been here a handful of times now. I LOVE THIS PLACE! The menu is like a novel so there should be something on there to please everyone. You can watch the sushi chef's create your masterpiece at the sushi preparing station at the head of the dining room. The decor is simple but I like it. Everything I've ordered from here has been beautiful and delicious. The waiter/waitress is always helpful and understanding if you want time to look at the menu. The crunch roll is my favorite so far. It's soooooo good. You should try it. read more

OK, met a friend there for the first time after hearing good reviews. The food was ok, but nothing real special. The service was attentive. But we had barely been there 1 hour and they rushed us out! We were finishing our wine when they brought the bill and they checked back at least 3 times to take the check and the minute I set my glass down empty, the gentleman reached between us and took all the glasses off the table without saying a word! Then our waitress came over and asked us to leave because they had a reservation for that table. Honestly, it was 1 hour and 5 minutes on a Friday night! No desire to go back. read more

I really can't believe I'm writing from a sushi restaurant in a strip mall in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Alas, it is true and it was one of the best deals I've seen. We're on a road trip and I found this place on Yelp! The srervice was outstanding. But, I am in Iowa and people are really friendly! (But I'm no fan of those Hawkeyes! Go Gophers!) The sushi box at lunch for $7.95 was filled with big pieces of vegetable and shrimp tempura, salad, 3pieces nigiri, a California roll and miso soup. Everything was at least average in taste and quality but long on portion size. I had the Dragon roll, which was $12.95. Very good too! A delightful surprise for lunch! I'd recommend it! read more

I am spoiled by the fact that I lived really close to Japanese community in Los Angeles. Sushi is always around the corner and very fresh. By far after living in Cedar Rapids for a month and a half, this place hit sushi craving spot. Two thumb up for being a sushi house in Midwest . Way better than Oyama in my opinion. read more

Sushi House - Alaskan And Crunch Roll! - Japanese Near Me - Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Before yesterday this was my favorite sushi place ever! That soon changed once I realized that I had been overcharged on the previous day's bill when I called to order again. They told me "you ordered something else because we are never wrong"! The female owner is rude and prejudiced and basically called me a liar! Then some nobody minion employee told me they were not going to refund me and that "egg rolls would make my total equal what it did" and I HATE egg rolls and would never order them! I finally asked for the real owner and got a better, more classy response though they still have yet to resolve my issue in any way. read more

Not great, not bad. Service was fast and friendly. They don't have as large of a sushi menu as others in the Corridor. Also, the lunch specials aren't as good as Oyama, Red Ginger,etc. if you're looking for a really quick, convenient stop for lunch, it works. read more

I've had a lot of sushi. I live in la which has some of the best sushi places. Came to iowa for family and we ate here. For iowa the sushi is definitely good but its not the best. I would come here again if I wanted sushi in iowa but this is not a place I would crave. My baby cousin ordered the kid's meal and it was HUGE. Even I can probably barely finish the kids bento box so I think that was pretty worth it. The fish was not bad considering its imported from elsewhere. Some of the fish that aren't originally chewy become chewy like the tuna. The outer chunk of the fish is nice and soft but as you get towards the center it becomes chewy. I would say the most decent is the salmon. The portions aren't bad either. Overall pretty decent. read more

Delicious! Although I have tried their sushi, the Chinese menu is my favorite. The crab rangoons are a must try! Fast seating, prompt service. read more

I love this place!! Great sushi. I get the dragon roll and it's always good. I love the volcano scallop! Tastes so good and not too oily. Michelle is so friendly; always good to see her. 10/10 would recommend. read more

An old friend picked this place for a 7:30 Wednesday dinner meetup and it was a great choice. I was seated quickly, and had a very attentive waitress, with the 'owner' stopping by occasionally to check on me/us (friend arrived a bit late). Ordered rangoons and spring rolls which arrived quickly (straight from the fryer, most likely), and then took a minute to select main course while catching up. We selected the honey roll, spicy tuna roll, and several others that were expertly crafted and well presented. The rolls were tight and held together well in my poorly-manipulated sticks, and the ingredients tasted fresh. Along with several varieties of sake (warm and chilled) and your typical Japanese beers, all of which were reasonably priced, we had a great dinner and were treated quite well for staying past their stated closing time of 9pm. The service was good to excellent (waitress wasn't far away when we finally stopped chatting to select our main course) and the price was spot-on compared to some other places I've been to in larger cities. Decor and overall style was tasteful, not too gaudy, and the layout allows for general privacy without being too secluded. Worth a try if you crave some fresh sushi/sashimi/nigiri. read more

It was a decent meal. Fast friendly service. Good flavors. I did feel a bit rushed as my roll and nigiri come out after I had had 3 bites of salad. I did try to order in such a way as to make it obvious I wanted soup and salad first then the roll for an entree. I think it went right over her head. Other than that pretty darn good for a strip mall in Cedar Rapids. read more

Loved it, loved it, loved it. Great sushi for the area, and we also liked the Yaki-Udon and General Tso's Chicken. I was excited to find this place in Iowa. Like others said, not the best I've ever had in my life, but hands-down the best I've tried in Cedar Rapids, IA. read more

Worst service! Wish no stars was an option. Waiter and management. Disliked meal. Waiter brought meal to table, clearly not what I ordered. When asked to exchange both refused and stated I had to pay for order despite not touching any item or even the plate. Will never return. read more

WOW! Just...wow. I ordered the Ginger Crispy Beef and it was amazing. Over the years I've worked my way down the menu and have never once been disappointed. This is no cookie-cutter Asian restaurant. The chef creates his own dishes that are truly unique and savory. read more

Just left here and had a great meal. I used to frequent this spot in 2009-2010 and had to stop by. As one of my all time favorite casual Asian restaurants, I had expectations and wasn't let down. It honestly wasn't quite as good as I remembered, but far above average and exceptional for the area. I would say it's still better than any Asian restaurant (besides the now defunct Gary Chu's) in the North SF Bay Area; an area with far more restaurants, a much larger Asian population and a tendency to have restaurants of a high caliber. If you're in the area and love Japanese or Chinese food, I would definitely give it a try. read more

Always have a good experience here! Love the crab rangoons and egg drop soup. My favorite roll is the Honey Roll, so yummy!
