    Shrimp tempura, smoked salmon cucumber, spicy tuna
    Savannah S.

    No frills, hole in the wall, gem of UES. The value is incredible. The prices are amazing. The service is fast. They make the sushi in front of you. There's a small area in the front that seats 1-3 people. Everyone was kind. When I got up, they offered to throw my trash away even though there was a trash can nearby. Really enjoyed my quick bite here! Worth it for anyone craving sushi at an affordable and quick pace.

    Is a hole in the wall, nothing special run by the family. They make it very quick and efficient. Might not be the best sushi but it's decent quality. If you want cheap/good sushi, you can't beat this price. if you ordered spicy roll there's a 40% crunch in it. You don't get to enjoy the sushi. I recommend ordering a regular roll.

    3 Sushi Rolls (~$12)

    Ordered: 3 Sushi Rolls (~$12): Salmon Avocado (+$1 for avocado), Spicy Tuna, Yellowtail Scallion Aya's take: Tell me where else in the city can you get fresh and decent sushi at this price point!? Previously called Sashimi Express but now Sushi Spot, this is definitely a hole in the wall spot. It's no frills, service is quick, and it's cash only. We ordered our rolls and walked over to Central Park to enjoy as there's no seating around here. All 3 rolls were super good and the ratios of rice to fish was on point! The Yellowtail Scallion was a bit more heavy-handed with the rice but it was still quite good. The Salmon Avocado was creamy and fresh and the Spicy Tuna was soft with a little bit of spice from the Sriracha mayo. All in all, such a good spot for a quick sushi lunch!

    Amazing value -- $12.45 gets you 3 rolls! The service is extremely fast, no frills. There's a small sitting area inside the store almost always available. A true local gem!

    It's cash only but definitely worth a trip to the ATM. Super delicious sashimi and my favorite spot in the area

    The sushi here is insanely fresh. I was amazed and floored by the taste and texture of the fish. It is worth every penny. The place ja cash only. There is an ATM nearby just in case. No matter what you order you will be satisfied. Please show much love to this spot so they can continue to give back to the community. By the way, service is lightening fast. On a beautiful day, grab some sushi, walk to the park, and relax and enjoy the waterfront.

    Absolute gem in the UES. Very low price for great quality. Very nice staff. Would highly recommend for great sushi for low price

    Triple Set (Spicy)
    Alexus S.

    Is this the best sushi? No. But it's the best and freshest sushi you're going to get at this price and even that is an understatement. I got the triple box (spicy- you can also get non spicy), which came with a spicy tuna roll, a spicy salmon roll, spicy yellowtail roll and then (1) piece of salmon sushi, (1) piece of tuna sushi and (1) piece of yellowtail sushi all for $14.95 ($16.28 with tax)!!! The rolls itself are good- a little smaller than a regular roll but still very tasty. The 3 pieces of sushi were really good though! The fish was all very fresh and tasty. Service was great- my order was ready within 10min of ordering. Cash only!

    Good sushi that's cheap too! I think Sashimi Express also goes by the "Sushi Spot" which was on the receipt. We did their "Any 7 rolls" deal which was $24.75. They had so much variety of rolls to pick from. With their affordable prices, Sashimi Express is an excellent option for those looking to satisfy their sushi cravings without breaking the bank. The quality may not match that of high-end sushi restaurants, but the reasonable prices make up for it. The sushi is made to order and you can see the chefs make your sushi in front of you. Cash only, but they do accept venmo (with a 15% charge). It's a really lowkey and tucked away spot on 78th st. heading East from 2nd Ave. It's also close to Central Park so we had a little picnic with our sushi :) I would definitely come by again if I'm in the area!

    Super impressed by the quality and price of the sushi here at sashimi express. I'm even more impressed that I can find such affordable sushi on the upper east side where food can be so pricey. I ordered the salmon box and the any three rolls. There was a great selection, both cooked and raw. Both were so affordable at just under $12 each and was a great portion size as well. I'd definitely come back since the fish was so fresh. My favorite was the salmon nigiri which was so delicious. When I got there, I was greeted with the super nice staff. They made my order right away and the service was impeccable. I got my rolls super quick - I'd say in under 5 minutes. If you're looking for cheap and delicious sushi don't hesitate to try this spot out for sure.

    The spot and it's sister locations are an amazing hidden gem for the neighborhood. The upper Eastside is known for its high prices. I mean Dash I literally paid $17 for a chicken and broccoli, or a nearby Chinese takeout place. Here that won't be the case, you'll get really fresh sushi for an amazingly affordable price especially if you calling order and pick it up They are cash only so make sure that you come prepared. But each time I've been here the sushi has been particularly fresh, the rice, warm, and you can just tell that the few guys that are working behind the counter are putting a lot of hard work into what they do. It's a very no-frills hole in the wall kind of place and it only has two little stools by the counter for you to sit inside. Take out sushi usually doesn't taste as good or fresh. For perspective, three lol, will cost you just sort of $12 . in this day and age that's a bargain!

    3/3 Food; 1/1 Service; 1/1 Value Sushi Spot aka Sashimi Express is a true hole in the wall and a hidden gem-- it is literally so easy to walk right by this no-frills, unassuming spot that will easily blow one away with the value for the sushi. The staff is friendly and quick with service. The sushi rolls are a steal-- delicious and fresh for dirt cheap prices. Is it the best sushi in all of NYC? No. But, for the price relative to the incredible quality, it is high up on the list of great sushi spots! One on occasion, my friend and I spent less than $40 between 7 rolls, two miso soups, and a kani salad to end up in a food coma that was absolutely worth every bite. Our favorite rolls were the pepper tuna, the spicy salmon, and the shrimp tempura, but really we liked every single roll. On the other hand, the kani salad was okay, and the miso soups were pretty standard. They are very busy and do not offer delivery services, so the wait time can be on the longer side if not called in earlier during peak meal hours. They are cash only. There is also limited seating inside and even space to stand is on the more limited side. Regardless, this place deserves a strong 5 simply by virtue of the quality, flavor, and value!

    The reviews don't lie: in the UES, this is the go-to spot when you're craving sushi but want to eat on the cheap. Hard to beat these prices: it's essentially grocery store sushi prices, but with the assurance it's freshly made and don't have to second guess whether it's been sitting out all day. In person is cash only, but you can also order delivery with credit card. There is a time and situation for all types of sushi. Sure, Sushi Noz or Tanoshi are amazing....but some days after being exhausted after a long day of work, you just want to plop down on your couch with cheap sushi and Netflix - for that, Sashimi Express is king.

    See all
