Every moment I spent at this spot just brought me down one star after the next for this review. I stood in front of the cashier for probably 10 minutes before I was acknowledged by the woman working behind the counter. It seemed like she was making a shaved ice dessert so I didn't expect her to drop that and come take my order, but at least say something to a customer waiting right in front of you. Once I ordered and sat down, I noticed how filthy the counters were. Sticky, sauces everywhere , food crumbs, hairs, sticky sauce bottles . . . it was a mess. Not a care in the world and absolutely no standards for a sushi restaurant. When my order was handed to me, the napkins wrapped around the chopsticks were all wet and dirty because the girl didn't clean her hands before giving them. I ordered the Sushi rush set ($25) and added the Salmon with lemon and Toro with caviar ($13). I don't know what was wrong with all this fish but none of it was fresh. By some miracle, it wasn't fishy or smelled funky so I figured I'd be okay to eat it. Every piece of fish had the same taste. That taste? Nothing. There was no taste. And the texture? Every piece of fish had the same, oddly mush texture. The rice was hard, falling apart, and tasteless. Since sushi is supposed to be framed around the rice, you would think the rice is the most important factor. Doesn't seem like it here. The cuts may look beautiful and you think you're getting at least decent sushi. But nothing about this is good. $50 down the drain. Having eaten sushi at everywhere from supermarkets to michelin star restaurants here in LA and in Japan - Sushi Rush won't be on any of my must visit or return to lists.
Located in Grand Central market in DTLA, a very popular and freshly prepared sushi spot, Sushi Rush. I tried this during Dine In LA and was pleasantly surprised. I had the all Salmon Zukushi with melt-in-your mouth salmon prepared and served in a variety of ways. Seared, as nigiri, as sashami, and as a hand roll. For Dine In LA, you also received edamame. Service was good and the ambiance was the usual grand central market bustling.
It was delicious. The service was fast and it was a fun experience. It is located inside central market and it was definitely a great choice.
The service was friendly & speedy despite the stall being packed. The matcha latte was not over-sweet & tasted deliciously earthy. The 2 combo plates we ordered were a well-priced tasty treat. All the nigiri were very fresh & the little taco-like handrolls were stuffed. 4 stars instead of 5 due to my single disappointment with the blue crab roll.
Was really looking forward to this spot because of the good reviews and photos! It's located in Grand Central Market and has counter seating so it's fairly casual. I got the 5 piece rushroll set at $30, making it more expensive than Rol ($26 for 5 rolls) and Sugarfish (most rolls are in the mid to high $5 range). Given the casual take out vibe of the place and the hands off service, the set was definitely a bit expensive but I chose to get it anyways because it looked so good in the photos. The second I opened the box, I knew something was wrong because of the strong fishy odor. Rolls all tasted bland/one note. I couldn't say these rolls necessarily tasted bad or like they spoiled but the smell and lack of flavor was shocking.
This place is not bad; it's definitely better than grocery store level of sushi. They got the process pretty down and set. Slices of fish are already precut, and they use a machine to mold the rice for nigiri. Not bad. Fish quality was enjoyable. Even the lean cut of fish like tuna didn't smell bad or taste off which is great but that doesn't mean the fattier cuts like salmon where super amazing, they were good. . The machine does make nigiri on the larger side but not bad. I think this is a solid choice for sushi if you are at Grand Central Market but ofcourse there are far better sushi places out there. Happy hour menu is weekdays 3pm - close.
I got the Rushroll set 3pc and it was so good! I wasn't sure I would like the scallops roll, but it was my favorite of all three! The girl at the register was friendly and service was fast. I had an underwhelming sandwich at another location, but these rolls definitely made up for it. It was a little difficult removing the plastic from the nori, as it all fell off, but I appreciate how crispy it was. 10/10 I will definitely come back.
After an afternoon of walking around our city, getting shot at with rubber bullets by police, and building up a pretty big sense of hunger a few weeks back, my wife and I ended up at the Grand Central Market and figured it was time for some sushi. We were here on a Sunday night around 7PM and the hall was pretty slow compared to usual. We've walked by this place dozens of times and even though I always thought the prices were on the higher side, I was very interested in the quality of sushi. We ended up just ordering one of the sushi platters so I honestly have no idea what was even served to us. On it, five different types of sushi were sprawled in front of us and I was honestly a fan of every single one of them. Was it the best sushi I've ever had? No, but the fish tasted fresh, the toppings were good, and the rice below was good as well. It was a tasty platter of nigiri and I have no complaints. Overall, Sushi Rush was a solid place to grab a platter of sushi to make us feel better and I can't think of a reason to not give it four stars. I didn't personally interact with the staff, but the screen allows for easy ordering, the food didn't take long to get prepared, and the sushi itself was very enjoyable. At the Grand Central Market with a craving for sushi? I know a place.
Ordered on the screen and it was quick and easy. No sushi for me today but the mango shaved ice was delightful! It was so light and fluffy with the perfect mango "sauce" compliment. Super refreshing and satisfying. Enough to share with a friend!
I am giving this restaurant 5 stars mostly because of how much the owner cares about his restaurant and providing a great experience to customers. There was a discrepancy about my order, and he reached out right away to try to clarify and rectify the situation, which I deeply appreciate! As for the sushi itself - this is a really solid casual option. A great option in the Grand Central Market itself. Seating is limited, so be aware of that. They have a solid happy hour menu! We got the pitcher of Sapporo for $18. Turns out there was a mixup so we had the party plate. My only complaint is that my rice fell apart on half of my rolls. Some of the toppings can be a little overpowering, but that's a personal preference because I really like the taste of the fish itself. The fish was very fresh, good quality. But every type of sushi was very unique. I had never had anything like that before. The extra flavor on top was definitely a new experience. My favorites were the salmon and tuna pieces. The rush roll was difficult for us to figure out the wrapping at first, but once we got it, we appreciated the idea of the rush roll with the nori being used almost like a tortilla for a sushi taco. The flavor for the rush roll was great! This was probably my favorite bite overall!! I would like to come back to try the scallop and the taro. Those two options look great. Please support this business. The owner is very kind and cares so much. DTLA and GCM is lucky to have them.
Crispy tuna rice was definitely crispy but a little too hard in some areas. I did like how it was cut into 4 pieces to make it easier though. I also wouldn't say this is authentic but it is good. 7$ though!!
Super easy menu, I love that they have sushi on display, thought that was cute. The man taking my order was super nice. Directed me where to get containers for my sauce. The sushi was so bomb and super fresh fish. I went back and ordered two more! I thought they had reasonable prices. For sure would come back and try different rolls.
Took a little longer than I expected but the sushi combo was great! Fish quality was amazing and I love the new plastic mechanism around the seaweed that allows it to be fresh as possible before consuming. Definitely coming back for a quick five star sushi bite! (*PS the picture I took was awful but the food was great!) read more

Quality is great, but flavor is lacking. Came here for the dine la deal, which ended up not really being a deal since normal menu prices matched. Set we got looked beautiful, and the fish was fresh, but it was all a bit dry and craved flavor. Some type of drizzle of some sorta sauce would have helped. read more

Blown away by how good this spot is. I was initially skeptical because I'm very intentional about where I eat sushi, but after seeing the girl next to me enjoying her order, I was convinced. I ordered the yellowtail and scallop nigiri along with a spicy tuna hand roll--everything was incredible. Fresh, well-balanced, and clearly made with care. I wish I could've tried more, but I had just eaten three tacos at the stall next door. That said, I'm already excited to come back and eat my way through the rest of the menu. read more

This sushi spot is a gem! The fish is high quality and fresh. I ordered the rush set, a couple pieces of yellow tail, a yellow tail hand roll, crispy rice, and the shaved ice. The crispy rice was skippable, didn't have much flavor but the rest was delicious. read more

Once upon a time, after this Faerie Queen enjoyed the heck out of Angel's Flight right across the street, the haggling geese landed here for a spot of lunch. Wow! I was happily surprised! This is a simple sushi place in the market area, but the food is wonderful! We ordered to our heart's content and after a full day of fun, returned for dinner! The small bites were perfect. The crispy rice was a delight. Highly recommend you enjoy a session here! The end. read more

1st time at Sushi Rush, ordered through the kiosk, service was great even though they were busy with many orders. Fresh sushi & delicious hand rolls, will be back! read more
Just WOW! The freshness, the quality, the happy hour. Try this place, it's a must. The fish was so fresh, it felt like I was in a high end restaurant but with the ambiance of a laidback sushi bar. Go for happy hour for $18 pitcher of beer. The sushi not only looks beautiful, it tastes beautiful, too! read more
What a great addition to GCM. Coming back from Japan, I completely understand the owner's concept. A casual QUALITY sushi spot with the perfect price point. I love that you can get a full omakase menu here for $48. Their toro is also melt in your mouth. I try and stop here every time I'm in GCM, especially when I just want a snack. The only thing that resembles this type of concept is Sugarfish, and that can get pricey. Definitely stop here and give it a try. read more
STEPH JUDGEMENT: Great fresh casual sushi bargain. Was looking for a light lunch option while at the Grand Central Market and sushi sounded good. I got their Sushi Rush combo-a nice selection of nigiri sushi and a roll for $25 as of this writing. They also have a free miso soup with Yelp check in! Service was friendly, and I found their food to be fresh and good quality. I also liked their special nori preservation system for their rolls that keeps the seaweed crunchy and dry until you're ready to eat it. It's not fancy, but it's a good value worth revisiting. read more

The hand rolls were very cleverly presented. The nori is still protected by wrappers you have to slide off. The result - a nice crispy nori that tears easily with each bite. $5 each for a sake and a beer is a perfect compliment to the meal. You're in the middle of Grand Central Market- which is a vibrant experience in itself. Accommodating & pleasant staff. read more
Ambiance: the fusion sushi place is located inside grand central market Service: very fast, you place the order with cashier and food was handled by chef through the counter Food: simple menu and different combos to choose from, the cut of the fish wasn't so good Tuna with wasabi root - *** average Seared Salmon with mayo - **** recommend Albacore with crispy onion & scallion - *** average Yellowtail with yuzu - **** recommend Spicy tuna with cucumber roll - *** average Miso Soup - *** average Price: small portions and overpriced for its quality, card or contactless payment only, beyond tax, there's surcharge LA health here, about $30 per person read more
It is located inside Grand Central Market so it tends to be a little crowded. Seats are bar style where you can see the chefs preparing the food in front of you. The staff were friendly and helpful. The fish tasted very fresh and in the set comes with scallop, salmon, spicy tuna, yellowtail, and blue crab hand rolls. My favorite was the scallop, but all of them were very fresh and flavorful. They provide plenty of condiments to pair it with and the ginger is cut into tiny pieces. The set was $28 and I shared with my boyfriend since we are planning to try other places here in grand central market. I think it was good and worth the price! read more

Great hand roll set, gives you a fun shareable platter to get a taste of salmon, yellowtail, scallops, tuna, blue crab. We shared 2 sets with 4 ppl and it was a good balance. read more
Delicious, fresh and very reasonably priced. The person taking my order was very knowledgeable and patient! Plus service was fast. I loved that you can sit at the counter and eat and order more if you didn't get enough! Plus they had variety of sauces read more
I was craving for some sushi and found this place to try for lunch! It's located in the grand central market so it does get pretty crowded and so many food options to choose from! I ordered the 5 hand roll set and it was surprisingly fresh and tasty! My favorite will have to be the scallop one! I love how the seaweed is in a plastic that you pull off when you eat each hand roll so it stays crispy! The price is great for its quality and size! Definitely a great place for a quick sushi fix! read more

Randomly decided to stop by Grand Central Market for a light and quick dinner. Sushi Rush is new and still in soft opening mode, so we decided to give it a try! The staff was incredibly friendly - Took the time to provide recs and check-in on us. I was a little concerned about the freshness and quality of the sushi due to the hot weather, but wow, I was pleasantly surprised by how flavor all the nigiri tasted. I ordered the jumbo scallop, albacore, tuna, toro with caviar, and yellowtail as a la carte... What I should've done was just paid $48 for the omakase since I practically ordered everything in the set except for the salmon belly. I left feeling satisfied and will definitely come back! read more

We were in the area & wanted a quick bite so opted for Sushi Rush at the Grand Central Market. The stand along with the omakase like seating was a cute little vibe. I chose the rush roll set of 3 which included: salmon, bay scallop, and spicy tuna which turned out to be around $18. I have no complaints about the flavor or freshness because both were up to par, it was the messiness of it that was NOT it for me. Even if I followed the way they instructed me to do it, every. single. one fell apart for me so that turned me off instantly. I couldn't take a bite without something falling out. Good place to try but I really hope they do something to keep it more intact which would make it more enjoyable in my opinion! read more
Soft and fresh fish! Rice was a bit crumbly so I ended up just using my hands. I would recommend asking for condiment cups for the sauce options even if you are dining in. Very friendly and prompt service! It's a great addition to GCM :) read more
Food: 5/5 Fresh, buttery smooth, flavorful Service: 5/5 Friendly, helpful, very fast As a kid, my grandfather would take us to Grand Central Market for fresh produce and fish, because it was primarily a market with a few food stalls. Today GCM is almost entirely food stalls. I work nearby and visit pretty frequently. It's obvious this is a brand new stall, but I was very happy with the food and service. Having open seats with a view to the kitchen, and a nice selection of clearly labeled condiments is a nice touch. Having fresh wasabi on the tuna was a really nice touch. I tried the albacore, salmon and tuna nigiri along with the scallop RushRoll. All were tasty, fresh, and craveable. Will be going back and trying some of the sets. read more
