    Seared Tuna
    Melissa C.

    The seared tuna was amazing! The Green dragon roll was so tasty. Was impressed how tasty it was.

    You wouldn't expect sushi in a mall to be good but this place has consistently good sushi! The chef is super friendly and makes everything to order. The portions are pretty large and you never have to wait very long. My only slight complaint is the pieces are sometimes big for my mouth - but I can deal with that! Lol I usually just eat right there at the mall dining area - it's usually pretty clean and I can people watch but you can always take it to go if that's not your vibe.

    Godzilla roll was amazing! Great sushi chef and food!

    Super yummy sushi ! We are so impressed! Great portions and the sushi chef was awesome! Thank you sushi chef for a fabulous dinner! Our favorite was the Godzilla roll! The crunch roll was also great just like I like finally! A++++

    Who would've thought the mall of all places would have some great sushi. We've passed by this place every time we visited the mall & said, "we should try that...". Well today was the day & it did not disappoint. The prices were not bad. We ordered a rainbow roll, spicy tuna, shrimp tempura, tuna sashimi & a seaweed salad. With tip, it came out to $50. My bf is picky about the rainbow roll but this one was to his liking. The rolls were pretty big! I enjoyed everything we ate. It was fresh & tasty. The staff were friendly & quick. We waited maybe 10 minutes for all of our rolls which was super fast. I will definitely eat here again. I don't know why it took me so long to try it.

    My partner is Japanese and he's said this is about the freshest fish he's gotten in Albuquerque! We made it a habit to drop by whenever possible. The portions are very generous and the rolls are a pretty good size. Pricey but sushi is pricey anywhere.

    The food was very good and the staff was very friendly and upbeat. Amazing that such great quality of food is found at the mall and I would highly recommend Sushi Roller

    Gyoza & jalapeño bomb. Both tasty - not much heat from the jalapeños

    My wife and I were in town for the District VI Honor Band weekend. 11-19-22 (She had students participating) Enjoyed our entire meal. Seaweed salad, gyoza, sesame balls, rainbow roll (?) & unagi sashimi w/spiral Cucumber. Unagi was tender and SO delicious! We will be back! (Even though we don't live near - or drive near - this part of town. Home is Mountainair)

    "Best sushi in New Mexico. No doubt!" I decided to make my weekly stroll to the mall, and of course I'm always hungry, so I stop by the food court. I haven't tried this place before and was in the mood for some sushi. I ordered a bunch of sushi, like the Sakura and Cottonwood rolls. Once I finally got it, I was stunned. They looked like something I'd find at a high class Japanese restaurant. So colorful and fresh looking. The man who was making the sushi was very kind and patient as well. The sushi tasted incredible, so much flavor and time put into it. Will be coming back! Thank you, Sushi Roller...

    SirPlsCalmDown ..

    Consistently fresh and delicious! Worth a special trip to Cottonwood mall for this amazing sushi! The owners who personally prepare the food are always very courteous and pleasant. It's sad to see these local restaurants struggling during the pandemic, especially at the mall where they may be overlooked as a food option. Support local businesses!

    I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious this place is! My best friend always raved about it but I was like "cmon girl it's in the mall" but she finally got me here and I'm glad she did!! It has a very fresh taste to it, and the rice was immaculate (I praise someone who can make rice well). & presentation was 10/10 for all their plates! I was thoroughly impressed with the volcano roll. In a weird way it reminded me of a hamburger but didn't taste like one at all haha it was definitely my favorite roll we had. I also tried their sesame balls as a dessert for the first time & really enjoyed them. To describe them they are kind of like a donut ball with a thick cream filling, super yummy! We also ordered the Sakura Roll, Crunchy Roll, Spider Roll, California Roll, & Edamame & Seaweed Salad for appetizers. The California Roll is a must here it is just better here than anywhere else I've had in town - try it & you'll know what I'm talking about! I've never had Seaweed Salad until last night & I have to say I will be getting it every time I come here from now on it was so good! Also the staff were the utmost friendliest people. Check it out! PS peek my bestie Jess in my review pic who got me to try this place!!

    Shrimp tempura roll
    Mari K.

    So, I know like many of you, I don't associate great sushi with mall food courts, but that's where Sushi Roller proved me wrong! We had plans to go to a movie at the mall and decided to grab a quick bite in the food court beforehand. We passed a table with some of the most beautiful sushi I had ever seen! I noticed Sushi Roller and walked over to peruse the menu. They have great photos of their rolls at the "sushi bar" and you mark what you'd like on a dry-erase menu. Well, we had to try them and we absolutely made the right choice! I had the Godzilla roll (which was tempura flash fried deliciousness and enormous) and sesame balls and my husband had the green chile roll and shrimp tempura roll. All of the food is made fresh to order and ready so quickly! Everything we ordered was so delicious and the man and woman who made the food and served us were so kind and wonderful. The next time you are in Cottonwood mall, don't walk by Sushi Roller. Stop and order your food there and try a unique experience in the food court!!

    I have visited Tamashi a few times and and just now getting to my review…read more I want to preface this by saying that they should have a five star review, but finish my reading this and you will see why. It is not the biggest restaurant, and is popular, so I would recommend being prepared to wait during "popular busy time" but it is so worth the wait. So I also recommend waiting. The staff is always pretty friendly and accommodating. I shared an app, a roll and an order of salmon sashimi with a friend on both visits. The food is always fresh, and delicious! I never feel like I am being overcharged for what I get either. Going to eat for sushi can feel like that sometimes. The quality of the food is great and everything is always aesthetically pleasing as well. I had their avocado bomb on my last visit and I was delightfully surprised with it. I like avocado in most cases, but sometimes, it can be a lot at one. I thought this was going to be like that when I saw it, but I was wrong. I look forward to getting one of these on my next visit! On my last visit my friend and I saved room for a dessert, one that we saw rotating on their screens that they have in the restaurant showcasing some of the menu items. It was a take on a bananas foster. It looked delicious but alas, we'll see if we can manage to get it next time. Note to self, have dessert first on next visit?

I thought that the menu looked a little expensive, but the portions are huge…read more My friend and I shared the medium Happy Boat, one order of mackerel sashimi (basically a whole side of a fish!), and the banana tempura for dessert, and left extremely full and satisfied. The final price (paying with cash) was $102.32 before the tip, which seems very fair given the size of the portions and the quality. The fish was not the very highest quality, but it was very good. The wasabi was some of (if not) the best that I've ever had. The soy and eel sauces were made in-house, and were excellent. Presumably, the rest of the sauces were house-made as well. Leo was a very good and friendly server. The atmosphere was very relaxed but could be suitable for something fancier. The one thing that hurts is the price; as fair as it is, I do wish that it were a smidgen less.

    When we arrived, the restaurant was very full, and we waited about 15 minutes for a table. Once…read moreseated, our table already had menus and water, so we began looking over the sushi options. The menu did not indicate any gluten-free items, so I planned to ask the server about modifications due to mine and my daughter's gluten allergy. We waited about 14 minutes and no one came to our table. My husband eventually flagged down a server. I explained that me and my daughter have a gluten allergy and asked what sushi rolls could be made gluten-free. He told us that almost anything could be modified, and that we just needed to let them know. I also asked about the seaweed salad, and he said it was gluten-free, it just had sesame seed oil. He then walked away. When we were ready to order, we had to flag down a different server. I again explained that both my daughter and I have a gluten allergy. She seemed knowledgeable and clearly explained what could and could not be modified. When I double-checked about the seaweed salad, she informed us that it was not gluten-free which directly contradicted what we were first told. We ordered the Chameleon Roll without crab mix (since it is not gluten-free) and two Alaskan rolls with no fish eggs, or sauce on top for the same reason. When our food arrived after nearly 46 minutes the presentation was nice, however I immediately noticed they had put the gluten-free items on the same boat as the non-gluten-free items with sauce dripping from the non-gluten-free items on both sides. Then as soon as I picked up a piece of the Chameleon Roll, I immediately noticed crab mix inside. Which we were told was not gluten free. I flagged the server down and pointed it out. She seemed unsure how to respond and went to get someone else. I explained the problem to the new waitress and she asked us to remove the Chameleon Roll from the boat so they could remake it without crab mix. The remake took another 15-20 minutes. By this point, we had been about an hour and a half. We were extremely disappointed, especially after carefully discussing gluten-free modifications multiple times. At that point, I no longer felt comfortable eating the food, so when the remade rolls arrived, I asked for everything to be boxed up. When we received the check, a 20% gratuity had been automatically added, although this was never mentioned on the menu. Overall, the entire evening was disappointing. We were really looking forward to trying this restaurant, but unfortunately, due to the service issues and lack of consistency regarding gluten-free accommodations, we will not be returning.

We had an order of the tempura soft shell crab & veggie dish. A bit salty but good. I ended with ordering a key lime pie(very sweet & not worthy of an $8 price tag). I have to say the young man helping me out felt bad and threw in an extra key lime pie. The place had many tables occupied but it was comfy atmosphere. Received white rice but ordered fried.

For 30.00 you can order whatever you want from the large sushi menu. You have to eat it all and you have a two hour time limit. It kind of reminded me of Meat Beard the food challenge Tuber who eats gigantic food challenges except that you don't get a free meal if you eat everything. It's okay sushi. I find that sushi here in ABQ tends to be the sweet sauce kind and that's no exception here. I had a few nigiris a few special rolls and an eel hand roll. I liked the eel roll except I thought I'd left cream cheese on sushi back in Seattle where I used to live. I've given up on super fresh fish here in ABQ, mainly because I get that we are in the desert so any sushi is welcome. But the nigiris were all fresh tasting with bouncy flesh. The surf clams was the best of those. The place is a little tatty with a half assed attempt at paper flower decorations on a few walls. It's clean but looks old and worn. The staff were nice and friendly and didn't make you work hard to re-order. So the answer to my question is Yes, being able to eat a lot of mediocre food for free is a nice treat.
