My family last day of visiting Minnesota and we were craving sushi. There's an all you can eat nearby but their menu didn't have what my daughter was craving, so I decided to take a right instead of left. I used to dine at their uptown minneapolis location. This restaurant is located in a large commercial area with plenty of parking. Restaurant is a good size, walls decorated with color red. Bar located in the middle like the previous restaurant. Host greeted us and brought us water while we waited for the rest of our group to show up. I remembered they had seafood laab and had to order it. Pretty good!! Cocktails are strong too. read more

The oysters here are fantastic and I would recommend trying. I love that they are served unshelled on spoons in savory sauce. Also ordered the lychee martini. Its a strong drink but tasy with a large lychee fruit. read more

I've been here several times and have received mixed results from servers, but this time was great. I came in solo and sat down at the sushi bar. I was being friendly with the sushi chef, but he wasn't having it. The server needed to be summoned by him to take my order, but I didn't mind because she was in the back mixing something but was wearing gloves and was very sanitary despite anyone observing her. It's a small thing to expect, but I've seen some shady stuff at these types of restaurants. My server was personable and friendly. I ordered two lychee martinis (first time and outstanding), sashimi appetizer, spider roll and spicy yellowtail roll. The yellowtail and sashimi were on the happy hour menu, which was nice. The sashimi and spider roll was great as always. The spicy yellowtail was presented well, but had a spice in there I can't identify but I don't like. I didn't bring that home for leftovers, but it was not their fault. I get a spider roll whenever I get sushi and theirs is always my favorite! For anyone wanting a great drink, I highly recommend the lychee martini. It was soooooo good. The server said people come on specifically for that and are disappointed when they're out of fresh lychee. I'm glad they had it in stock for me to try! read more

The service was horrible - We waited at least twenty minutes before the waitress arrived to take our order. In addition, the food was not the best. We will not be returning to this restaurant. read more

I have loved Sushi Tango since they opened in Uptown. I haven't been to the Woodbury location in awhile so checked it out. Service was incredible. Water refilled. Let us know our food was being prepared etc. I enjoyed the ambiance although their playlist had Last Christmas by Wham which was odd in June. The oysters and spicy tuna roll were my favorite. I will definitely be back. read more

Hello my name is Ms K and I love sushi... oyster... a warm ambiance... and real people who care, who are making my sushi and helping me. I used to live in Woodbury, one great about it was that I was very close to Sushi Tango. What I love about this Sushi restaurant is that (for those who like spicy) you can have a spicy (almost a Thai spicy) flare to your Tuna Tataki, or Oysters. This sets Sushi Tango apart and it is what makes it unique. The Sushi chefs are my favorite people... so sitting at the Sushi Bar offers a more intimate experience. I definitely miss the original location of Uptown. All of the food here are fresh and the collar bone and Tuna Tataki are definitely some of my favorites. When I fly into Minneapolis.... I always try to come here. Delicious. read more

A group of 5 came in right at noon hoping for a quick meal before a later appointment. 45 minutes into our adventure, 1 person had their food and the other 4 were still waiting. It took another 5 minutes to find our server and ask for the checks right away and to go boxes as it was clear we were not going to make our appointment if we stayed and ate. When the other 4 plates were delivered, we were repulsed to find that our fish cuts were warm. Freshly made sushi that feels like it had been sitting out for quite some time was not something any of us were willing to risk. We were comp'd the meals and left the food on the table and very empty bellies. Do not go there. I wish we had gone anywhere else. read more

Great flavors, excellent service, nice décor - 4 stars. I happened to be in the area and I stopped by, on a whim, to get my sushi fix. I started things off with hot tea and Miso Soup. As my main course, I picked out 3 styles of tuna based sushi rolls. All of my food was good and bursting with flavors. The prices seem reasonable too, on par with similar sushi joints. I'd go back again any time. Thumb up! -Maxx read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch and got just that! Was in and out in 20 mins, with quick service at the sushi bar. I wish someone would have pointed out the lunch specials, but I didn't see that so ended up with a simple roll, shrimp spring rolls and miso soup. Half the staff was very attentive, but there was someone that they were training that hindered the experience. I understand that they were learning, but I don't think they were ready to be in front of customers. Example: didn't know where the water pitcher was, didn't know how to fill up a customers glass, spilt water everywhere, didn't clean it up, waited for another waiter come clean it up. I'd stop back here for the spring rolls, not for the ambiance, but they do a good job! Not the best sushi, but pretty decent for a quick cheap lunch. read more

The first time I had sushi tango, I met my husband here for a blind date. Fast forward to today, we are married with a baby boy. We are both very fond of this place. It had brought memories of joy, curiosity, and such new meaning. The day we went here, it was a random Tuesday night in February around 9:30pm. There was barely anyone there and I was already horrified I chose a bad place. Waiter came by, grabbed our orders and we just talked endlessly. Miso soup was perfectly balanced. The sushi's I ordered were fresh and tender. Rolls were creative and tasty. I don't think I had any bad entrees. My husband also said the food was perfect that night. We sat in my car after they closed and continue talking the night away. We loved our first experience there. 5/5 As we kept coming back, we gotten to know sushi chef Ace and fell more in love with how he prepares our sushi's. Reminds me of Bay Area sushi down in TX. A great MN escape. read more

Total meltdown. Table of 4. Sat quickly, not very busy. Ordered together. First 2 entries came out 30 minutes later. Other 2 people, who ordered sushi, waited another 30 minutes for food to arrive (only after 3 inquiries to the server) AND, not only did they not offer compensation for the wait, but added an automatic 18% gratuity to the bill. Excuse: cooks were slow. However, 2 other tables that came in after us ordered, ate and left before our companions even got their sushi. DO BETTER! read more

Visited Sushi Tango Woodbury on a Saturday afternoon. It was busy at the time so it took about half a minute to be seated which was no problem. There were not a lot of servers working so the people working were very busy. Luckily, this was no issue for us as we had time to relax and eat! We ordered 3 different rolls, the Vegas roll, the scorpion and another roll (I can't remember the name). I typically like spicier sushi so I thought these rolls would give me that spice. In addition to the sushi we also got some veggie egg rolls. The egg rolls were ok but nothing too special. The sushi looked great but overall didn't have much flavor. For that reason I am giving this restaurant a 3. read more

Last week I ordered takeout from Sushi Tango twice! The first time was good, so I had to go back. In comparison to other sushi restaurants in the twin cities, I feel like the offer a more limited amount of rolls. There is still variety, but not as many creative or out-of-the-box things to try. However, their menu has many dishes other than sushi! The portion sizes were on par with what I expected. I wasn't blown away by the value. The raw fish did taste FRESH, which is a key indicator of good sushi. The employees were all super nice and friendly when I was inside to pick up my takeout. Both times they confirmed that I had enough soy sauce, which I consider to be above and beyond what I've experienced elsewhere. I would rate Sushi Tango as my 2nd favorite sushi restaurant in MN. It's closer than my first favorite so I'll be visiting waaaay more often. Hooray for decent sushi whenever I feel like it! A note: on one of my takeout orders, I was accidentally given a tuna roll instead of a spicy tuna roll. It's a small mistake and since there were no allergy concerns AND the roll was still good, I'm not docking any stars. Just an FYI! read more

Good job, Sushi Tango Team! My first time visiting this shop and based on my experience, I am shocked to see such a low current Yelp score (approx 3 star at time of writing). My daughter and I arrived around 7pm during a busy dinner service. Despite only having a couple servers working we were promptly greeted and quickly quoted a wait time for a two roll togo order. The server and chef took extra care to understand my food allergies and even double checked if my daughter also had food allergies. We were offered water and seats while we waited which was nice. The food came out at least as fast as quoted and was perfectly delicious when we made it home 10 minutes later. To my personal delight, my roll did not have any cross contamination with my allergens. The restaurant had a good vibe to it and I would like to do a dine in session sometime in the future. read more

Slow service, very slow service. Ramen soup is a no go. Stay away. Not going back to this place. Better options. They lost their touch

When we first arrived, there were tables already taken by a couple larger groups. We noticed the chalkboard stating to expect a 15 minute table service, and we were ok with that. But it was kind of weird to walk in and not be greeted by anyone. We felt like we were being stared at by everyone who was there, like we were in the wrong place... someone asked us if we had reservations and we said no, and then was told they'll help us out.... Someone walked in after us from outside and said she'll seat us soon. Looks like she might've been just starting her shift. Again, she asked if we had reservations, and we said no, and wondered if we were suppose to make reservations. She said no, but they were expecting reservations later... We weren't led to our table, but was told where to sit, by a finger-point and instructions to help ourselves to the high chair we needed for our baby, so... ok, no problem.... It didn't seem that busy, as the groups seemed to already have been taken care of and were just enjoying their meal. But as noted on their chalkboard, from that point on, we expected the 15 minutes to be waited on, but unexpectedly, it was less than that. We also expected our food to take longer, but surprisingly, it came out pretty quickly, as well. We got the Vegas roll and the Crunchy roll, shrimp udon soup, and seafood laab. The sushi tasted fine. Nothing mind blowing. I did really enjoy the crunch in the Vegas roll. The seafood laab was tasty. It had the perfect blend of herbs and spices. The udon soup was just ok. It reminded me of the instant udon soup packs you can get at the store, but with added veggies in the soup. All in all, the ambience of the restaurant definitely felt rushed, and I'm not sure if I'll ever choose to go back for the food. This place lacks professionalism in service that could've helped with the rating, but maybe it was just tonight as they were expecting other groups and needed to make space... read more

All aspects that you would expect from a sushi restaurant or here. Good atmosphere good drinks great sushi.

Popped in here for dinner. Service was AMAZING! Everyone was so kind and we were greeted immediately. Our waiter was incredibly helpful and lots of people came to check on us. Definitely recommend the Cream Cheese Wontons and the sauce they came with. This miso was a little too salty but still overall good. The only reason this was a 4 star and not a 5 is because the table was slightly sticky and the sushi was fairly mediocre. Other than that it was good and seriously the service makes it all worth it!!! (Everything was also plated wonderfully, looked so pretty.) read more

I have not had sushi here since I lived in Woodbury. My man was shopping at Cabelas and asked if I wanted takeout NYE dinner. Duh! My tradition has always been sushi takeout and a bottle of wine for the past 15 years and they helped continue our tradition! We had spicy salmon and spicy tuna rolls. Dragon roll. Crunchy roll and spicy Mexican roll. All fish was fresh and most rolls were 8 pieces! I was full. He also got wontons and egg rolls. I liked the wontons. The cream cheese was garlic flavored. I did not try the egg rolls but he was a fan, they were pork and crispy with fish sauce. They gave him a complimentary beef mushroom ramen to try. The beef was tender and the broth was heavenly and salty. Yum! I will continue to support. Made our new years tradition tasty! read more

It's been years since I've been back here. People still rave about this place after almost 10 years. I had to come back to check it out because every where I went in Minnesota, the sushi is bad and I thought I might get good sushi here. Long story short. They still suck. Still very bad service. They have tons of people working there, but not one can reach into the fridge and open a beer for me. My drink took 10 minutes to get. Sushi rolls are small and soaked with sauce so you can't even taste the rolls. Hamachi Kama was burnt. No one wants to eat burnt fish. The skin was not even crispy. I didn't expect the sashimi to taste fresh, but it was decent for not being near the ocean. Prices where high of course, and rations were small. Oh by the way, their oysters are canned oysters and probably retail at .10 cents a piece so they're making a killing selling them to you at $1 each. Although the hot pepper sauce they put on them is quite good. read more

I heard about their $1 oysters on Wednesdays and decided to check it out. I expected oysters in their normal shells but the spoons were a nice surprise. I liked the sauces they were in even though the less spicy ones were just Tabasco, I especially liked the spicier ones. The mussels weren't the best they had a bad smell and taste all together wouldn't recommend. The sushi was sushi lol idk what else to say, they were good. I remember one of my friends saying the shrimp noodles were something they could make at home so nothing special about that. read more

Expensive but mediocre quality. We came one afternoon for early dinner since I was craving sushi. I was glad that the menu was extensive and had a very good selection. We ordered a bunch of stuff and the quality was just very lacking. Started with the Tako salad $10, it was swimming in a pool of spicy mayo, couldn't even taste the octopus, or the lettuce. Next came the uni sushi $8, and the uni was just not very fresh. Then we had the sashimi lunch special $14 and this was a lot better. It came with a few pieces of tuna, albacore, bass and several pieces of my favorite white tuna. The tuna was kinda stiff, but the other 3 were pretty good. Then we got the rainbow roll $15, which was ok. Service was nice and friendly, although the food took awhile to come out. $70 and I wasn't even full. I was also charged $2 for a hot tea. The bathrooms are clean and parking is super easy. I would not recommend this place based on the quality for the food and the high prices. read more

Garbage. We had to go to Wendy's for bacon burgers afterwards. I was excited for some happy hour sushi, but this was not worth the wait. Plus, I ate the worse sushi roll of my entire life, I wish I could take it back. Maybe I just went on the wrong day. It was Wednesday at 9pm, just when HH started, and they have $1 oyster specials on this night. The place was completely packed. There were spaces where they could have placed tables, but instead it was empty. Get more tables sushi tango people. The floors were soooo sticky. I felt grossed out whenever I moved. The sounds it makes and the feeling of getting stuck to the damn floor was disgusting. When we were finally seated the server took forever to come by. I'm sure the crabbiness I felt from hunger made this experience even worse. We had everything picked out by the time we sat since we had time to look. We watched two other tables, also with two guests, that sat after us get all of their dishes and finish eating before we got all of ours. We only got beef tataki, 8 oysters, and 3 rolls that came with 4 pieces each. The tables next to us had like 8 courses!! The oysters were tiny and drenched in ponzu. The beef tataki I did like. But wtf on the happy hour rolls. 4 pieces per sushi roll, most places you get the full roll with happy hour prices. I wasn't expecting the roll to be reduced too. That was shit, and the sushi rolls were not good. We had the spicy tuna, yellowtail, and dynamite roll. The pieces were all cut in different sizes. Flavorless on the tuna and yellowtail. Omg on the dynamite roll, this is the nastiest shit ever. They dunked it in some sort of fermented chili paste thing. It overwhelmed the roll and left a shit taste. I never ate shit before, but I'm positive this is what it would taste like. Never coming back. read more

Need good sushi now? Sushi Tango has got you covered. No frills or gimmicks, just good food, good drinks, good service. I like that they still do take out - it's so convenient and great for when I'm not feeling the most social. The 9 1/2 roll is my fave of the moment, but it's honestly hard to go wrong. Solid restaurant all around. read more

-Salmon skin 5/5 & $4 during HH -Spicy tobiko 4/5 salad when it's made right & 2/5 when it's inconsistent. $10, not on HH menu -Seaweed salad 5/5: I enjoy the seaweed salad here because it doesn't taste grossly defrosted like how other places do it. I'm not sure if they have another way of defrosting it but it taste cleaner than most sushi restaurants I've been to -i would not recommend the nigiri Bc I feel like the fish isn't the freshest here. If u want quality fish, go elsewhere -agedashi tofu. Bland af 1/5 would not recommend This is my usual go to for happy hour. My favorite roll from here is the salmon skin roll. It's simple roll with asparagus and some veggies and salmon skin. I love it with the side of the ponzu/tataki sauce! Another favorite is a spicy tobiko salad.There are Romain lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, squid and topped with tempura flakes. I love the salad but every time I get it it's always inconsistent. One time it was made with iceberg lettuce, one time I didn't have cucumbers, and then when I went last night it wasn't drenched in the sauce like how it usually is. I don't even think they have Tobiko in it sometimes. Portion isn't that great either Service is ok. Tentative but you usually have to wave them down to get their attention read more

Overpriced, sub-par service, sashimi was not at all fresh. It would be OK if you could get a couple of rolls for $10, but you pay $15-$20.

Unfortunately, this restaurant has gone down hill over the years. The food is often overpowered with sauce and the flavors are just imbalanced. The happy hour used to be great, but now it's just not impressive. I would recommend not coming to this place if you are in the mood for sushi. Service is hit or miss as well. If you go for dinner, expect the place to be super loud with obnoxious guests. I've gone a few times and the patrons at the bar are out of control, they also dip in and out of the back room so I can only assume they are regulars or associated with the staff. read more

Haven't been to Sushi tango since their uptown location shut down. Wanted some sushi and have been contemplating for years if I should drive 30 minutes to Woodbury. I decided to give it a go and when I got there. The place looks run down. Ordered 2 sushi rolls and it was way too salty. I couldn't even eat it with soy sauce. My wife ordered the bulgogi. The meat was dry, thin, and mush when you bite into it. Food quality I would rate 0/5. My wife and I left completely dissatisfied we went somewhere else to eat right after. I absolutely loved their uptown location. During that time Sushi tango was my go to. Quality of food was higher. Quality of service and professionalism was higher. Cleanliness. A great place you'd want to take someone on a date night. It's sad to what Sushi tango has become. As far as the Woodbury location. I can't recommend eating here. Much better off going to an AYCE if you want sushi or any food in general. read more

All day happy hour on Monday!!! However it is not available for to-go orders! . Booooohooooo. I can accept this restaurant guideline. I stopped in last minute to pick up food to-go. I placed my order with the bartender. I ordered a few veggie rolls and vegetarian egg rolls. Noticing that the establishment was not very busy.... but somehow it took over 25 minutes for my to-go order. Again this order included 2 veggie rolls and 1 order of veggie egg rolls. My total was slightly over $18.00 for the 3 items. I will return on a Monday in the future to partake in the happy hour for dining in. I will not wait that long again for a to-go order. The happy hour menu includes various drinks, rolls, and appetizers. I believe the regular menu is overpriced. read more

Sushi Tango - Happy Hour Menu - Sushi Bars Near Me - Woodbury, Minnesota

I love their spicy oysters and decided to try it out at the Woodbury location instead of the usual one I go to which is their uptown location. That was the worst mistake to think that one location would have similar qualities and taste as their other location. Woodbury location: 1) Very few servers on a busy happy hour night 2) Wait time for meal was an hour and food only arrived after flagging a server down 3) The spicy oyster that I always raved about to families and friends were awful. It tasted like washed up oysters that were not drained well with some added peppers to garnish. It was NOT spicy at all nor tasted good. I could not even finish it despite ordering only four oysters, HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. 4) I ordered a spicy salmon roll and no surprised that it was NOT spicy at all. In fact, the salmon meat itself was not even coated with their spicy sauce compared to their uptown location. Poor plate presentation as well with the salmon roll sloppily placed on the plate as if someone just finished cutting and just left it like that. HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. 5) Extremely loud customers. You will not be able to hear someone sitting across from you in this restaurant during their busy hours. Overall, it's more like a bar versus a restaurant atmosphere. 6) Server got my order wrong and gave me double of the salmon roll. It might have been because it was so loud in there that she could not hear me properly. However, the only good thing that happened despite the error is she was understanding and gave the second roll on the house. At least the Woodbury location has some decent employee. I will never come to this location ever again. read more
