We stopped by the other day on a Thursday around 5pm. We started the meal with their yakitori. They were so flavorful and I'm obsessed with their pork belly one! The sushi was delicious and their torch sushi lunch special is a steal. We ended the meal with ramen and the lobster ramen was stunning and the ramen overall was a perfect hearty and comforting meal! The inside is on the smaller side with a small bar, small sushi bar, and a few tables and booths. I thought our food came out pretty quickly and the staff gave really good recommendations! I want to come back and try one of their sushi boats! read more

I did not like the food that much here. The veggie fried rice was band and the soy sauce didn't really help with the flavor. The scallion pancakes weren't bad though. The waitress was really nice, which is what made this experience better, but I still wouldn't want to come back. read more

I tried a basic order of tuna roll and salmon avocado roll and was not that impressed. The quality felt very average. The restaurant itself seems very quiet and intimate, cute for a date night spot. The staff was very friendly and fast when I picked up my order. read more

Love sushi too! The prices are so reasonable and the staff are attentive and friendly! They have great seating by the window or booth for a big outing. I always get the Combo to try three rolls at a set price! I highly recommend this place read more

Sushi Too - Combo #1 - Sushi Bars Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

One of the best sushi meals I've had recently. My partner and I were blown away by the quality of fish and options. After nearby restaurants on Walnut had 1hr+ waits, we were so hungry and stepped into Sushi Too not expecting anything special. We never really hear people talk about Sushi Too for sushi but after this dinner I have been telling all my friends to check it out. The Toro was so fatty and a big portion. They had a couple sushi specials from a popular Chinese video game (I forgot the name but my partner recognized it) and we ordered the roll with torched wagyu on top. This was the highlight of our meal, it was SO GOOD!! Sometimes you find the best gems accidentally :) read more

This is hands down the best restaurant experience I have had in Pittsburgh. The entire staff was so unbelievably kind and just happy to have your service. That alone could make a spot that's a 5/10 an 8/10 in my opinion Luckily the food was nowhere near a 5/10, it was fucking awesome. When I posted a story I had a few people message me about how much they loved this spot. I've seen it a bunch of times and never though anything of it My buddy Geno does photos for the app Secret Shopper so he always has insane amounts of food that the app covers and pays for him to shoot. He'll randomly ask me if anything on his schedule sounds good and I picked this. So no they didn't give to us to free, they didn't even know what we were doing until we finished and I told them I was gonna post this and how much I loved it. They couldn't have been more grateful for it and that made me so happy honestly We got an absurd amount of food. Sushi sample. Gold Dragon Roll, Red Dragon Roll,, Sushi Too Special Roll, Spicy Eel Roll, Wagyu Sushi, fried rice, Chicken Yakitorii, Cashu Katsu, Lobster Tail Ramen, Jigoku Ramen and of course mocha All of it awesome. Specifically the sushi too deluxe roll and their chasu katsu I will absolutely be returning. When you go seating is limited. If you plan to go during a typically busy night be prepared to wait. Inside is very clean, very family friendly, not too cold and all are welcomed read more

Amazing Sushi and Ramen! The staff were all so nice! The wife and I went there for lunch and we loved everything we had.

I've had take out here a few times and was never really super impressed. However this last time I got take out, I was pleasantly surprised. The chirashi bowl and wagyu rolls were a hit. The fish was pretty fresh too. The spicy tuna roll was standard. I definitely want to come back for the chirashi bowl. Also, I have never dined in before, but it does look like a cute spot! read more

Review is for pick up via Uber Eats. Nut free for all dishes I ordered. Food travelled surprisingly well in 25F Pittsburgh weather. Portions are extremely generous and the miso soup was still hot after walking ~15 minutes. We ordered the JD1 Japanese Beef Curry Don, the JD2 Japanese Curry Katsu Don, and thought that might not be enough so we also had the Y2 Fish Yumich. Ended up not touching the Yumich at all (which is kind of like a taco, but wrapped in seaweed) since the portions were so generous on the Don dishes. The curry was a great balance of spice and intensity. The beef was tender. The Katsu was just crispy enough. There were tons of vegetables underneath the meat and curry to mix with rice that was a little watery compared to other curry don I've had, but not overly salty. This made up for the plain rice by letting you mix easily with the curry. Overall, phenomenal value for decent Japanese dishes. read more

Probably my favorite Asian restaurant in or near Pittsburgh. Sushi was amazing, fried rice was best around.

This used to be our favorite sushi spot but lately they have been messing up orders and blaming everyone else. Idk what happened, it's really sad. We would order weekly and the past 3 times they either lost our order or completely messed it up without fixing it. read more

I had no issue with the service but the food.. I'm sorry but that's just not poke bowl.. spicy tuna is minced down to a goo.. iceberg lettuce underneath. For a bill of almost 20$ I wish I had gone to a different restaurant. read more

The sushi was fresh & delicious. The service was friendly and good. They give you a nice big bottle of water, which was nice on a hot day. They have bubble tea if you like that and will serve them without the bubbles if you're not a bubble tea fan. It's very out of the way, so I doubt we'll return, but we recommend it. read more

Wanted to include a pic but we ate everything up without thinking twice about it! The service was quick and attentive, atmosphere was good, as was the food. We had the gyoza and a couple sushi rolls. My picky 1-year-old approved of the gyoza, and no complaints about the sushi, except that I personally like smaller rolls that I can fit in my mouth in one bite instead of trying to bite them in half and have them spill out and make a mess lol. I would come back! read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch today. Got the crazy dragon roll - which was AMAZING!! Also got beef kimchi pot to take home for later - also delish! Very flavorful, little spicy! read more

Since moving to Pittsburgh from a beach area, I have been hesitant to try sushi. Well, I was in the mood and heard Sushi Too is the best in town. We tried the chef's choice for two. There were two different rolls and several sashimi. The starting edemame, can't really mess up. The miso soup was good, as was the homemade ginger salad dressing. The selections were fresh, however next time we will try more of a variety of rolls. The ones served were not enough to fairly judge. We were definitely not impressed with the octopus, which was too chewy. The atmosphere is not worth recommending . We were seated in an upstairs area with no ambiance. I will say the staff were very friendly. read more

Mediocre rolls, but HIGHLY recommend their other hot dishes like chicken curry katsu and the tempura appetizer.

Would def come again :) read more

As someone who's hometown is on an island I was wary of finding good sushi in Pittsburgh. However, Sushi Too never ceased to amaze me. Not only do they have delicious sushi, their prices are amazing. I am addicted to their shrimp tempure and could eat a Tri color crunchy roll forever. It is my favorite plqce to go eat both for the food and the setting. I love going alone and just existing in the nice little booth in the back. I will miss you when i graduate read more

Ordered through DoorDash. The broccoli tempura rolls and inari were so good! My friend got the avocado sushi and she liked it as well. The avocado looked nice and fresh to me. read more

Could not have chosen a better spot! It was a friend's birthday, on a Monday night with a group of 8, we were hesitant where we could go for sushi around Shadyside and ended up choosing Sushi Too. I called ahead to be sure we could fit and when we arrived they led us into the back where we essentially had our own party room. The service could not have been any better. They were so so nice and fast to bring out our food and clear off the table. Our server even helped us do our saki bombs. And of course, the food was amazing. I have only ever gotten take out, but the presentation of all of our plates were beautiful as well as the fantastic taste. The only thing to mention is that if you order salmon nigiri, be sure to say if you want it raw or not because it came out cooked. Regardless, it's safe to say that everyone enjoyed their meals and we will be coming back soon! Thank you Sushi Too!!! read more

After a nice workout my friend and I decided to grab some food in Shadyside. I have not been to Sushi Too in a really long time and had an appointment on Walnut at 8:30 so it kinda worked out perfectly. When you walked in you were greeted warmly and led right to a table. It was not packed in the restaurant but it had more people inside than I expected for a Monday at seven. The waitress came over and asked about drinks but I opted just for water, if I just worked out I better try to be a little bit healthy throughout my meal. While looking at the menu I was particularly interested in the fact that they had lunch boxes. I think that a little bento lunch box at a reasonable price is really the way to go for a quick and easy take-out lunch. I put that in the back of my head as maybe lunch spot for later. I was interested in the sushi donuts on the menu. But I think it was more for the idea of me ordering a sushi donut not for anything else more than that. I think that it was just sushi in the shape of a donut. The prices weren't bad, around $9-15 dollars per donut, but it just was not what I was looking for and I would have wanted to share it not really get it for myself, it looked a little much. It was a colder day so I opted for the wonton soup to warm myself before we picked out our meals. I will say that this is where they started to lose me. I am a sucker for wonton soup. I order it at almost every place that has it looking for my favor broth and wonton combo. The broth here was not good at all. It, to me, tasted like salt. I mean that honestly, deer in the woods licking a salt lick, salt. That is the very image that popped into my head as I was trying to enjoy the soup. It was hard to get through and I had to drink a lot of water that night. The wontons were ok. I would say that they had a nice stuffing of chicken and seafood and the meat consistency and flavor was good. But the broth.... I do not think that I could make myself drink that or even go through that again. My friend then for her before dinner snack ordered the vegetable gyoza. I had one of the little dumplings and they were pretty good. I have never had a strictly vegetable gyoza so this was an experience. It still tasted good as any semi fried/steamed dumpling would and the dipping sauce made it extra delightful. I would order this again, especially if there were any meat issues within the group that I was with. For my main course I ordered the house special roll "dragon roll". It is my go to for all sushi. I love eel and avocado. It was wrapped perfectly and had a nice smokey eel taste to it. A perfect amount of wasbi was put on the plate. I would ask for my ginger for the next time, but overall the presentation and the taste was very good. I would get this again because it tasted fresh and it was a tight roll that didn't give way when dipped in soy sauce. Yum. I also ordered on the side the two piece of sashimi that was just two pieces of tuna over a rice roll. I got this to go for my partner to eat but then he already ate so I took it to lunch the next morning. YUM! What a nice filling little lunch treat. It stayed fresh and tasted very good. So if you have to keep your sashimi on hold for a bit, just know it will stay good for just a day. I liked it here. I would like more opportunity to explore the menu, but I can say that it was A-Ok in my book. Try it out, maybe you will like it too. read more

My favorite sushi spot in Pittsburgh! Always fresh and comes great even when it's delivered. They have great Japanese dishes as well and we love that they have classics like the katsudon! It's always done perfectly and I've never had a bad experience! read more

Well this is unfortunate especially during these times. It was just that bad and for the price I could have gone to Whole Foods and got way better Sushi. So I got the tempura avocado which was okay lack of presentation and the sauce that accompanied it wasn't very great if anything made the dish soggy. I then got Maki Combo 28.00 three different sushi rolls. Now on the menu it doesn't give you description of the sushi. You can guess what some are and some you won't know unless you ask. So this combo came with Cooked shrimp which was okay but wow was it cut huge. I barely was able to eat in one bite. Then was the spicy tuna which lacked flavor at all. What made me so disgusted with the whole experience and I usually love is eel. This eel was so salty that it wasn't palatable the sauce which was just dumped in hopes to hide that didn't help. It came with six pieces I tried it twice, second time without soy sauce to make sure I was not jumping to conclusions. It was definitely poor quality product gross gross gross. It made me sick to my stomach never again. read more

Service and drink were good but the quality of food was so low! ( chicken fried rice).

Very cute sushi restaurant with a variety of rolls. I had the katsu curry rice and crazy dragon roll. I also had hot green tea. It really hit the spot on a rainy day! It was very yummy and our waiter was super nice. Definitely want to come back. read more

Average sushi spot. I am always not too sure about having seafood in Pittsburgh, but I thought I would give it a try. I got the Sunday bento, but I felt like the sushi was lacking.. I couldn't finish it. I thought that the katsu was good though and the shumai was ok. For $12, I guess that's decent. There are better options in the Shadyside area for lunch. read more

I love sushi, but rarely branch out from one location. However, during a girls day on Walnut, me and two friends stopped into Sushi Too and I was very impressed! I love a sushi bar that's open because you know everything being made is fresh! They also have a regular bar which is rare at many sushi places. our friendly waitress brought us edamame on the house which I thought was awesome and delicious! I ordered the Big Omg T Roll and the Crunchy Tri Colored Roll and my only dilemma was that I couldn't decide which one I liked better! Such fresh, excellent flavors. I can't wait to go back and try more. Pricing is also very comparable to any sushi in the area. read more

Agree with Richard's review below. This was our go-to sushi restaurant for a decade. We went two weeks ago and were sorely disappointed by the menu changes, price increases, and service. We suspect a change in ownership as all the staff was unfamiliar to us -- but they denied this. We recommend Kiku (Station Square) for a more satisfying and authentic experience -- and look forward to trying Golden Gai (Bakery Square), which is opening soon. read more

I absolutely love the salmon teriyaki from Sushi too. So much so that I've ordered it on the weekend for 3 consecutive weekends. It's a little pricey but the portion size is good. The salmon teriyaki dish also comes with a side of miso soup. Good combination. The saltiness of the miso soup balances out the sweet teriyaki sauce. Besides the salmon teriyaki, I've also tried some of the sushi and they were good, good given Pittsburgh standards considering the fact that there is no ocean or sea close by. Wondering what dish to get? Simple answer - salmon teriyaki. read more

I've always had a pleasant experience at Sushi Too. They have lots of different options on their menu, but I always get the cupcake sushi, which is the reason I'm writing this review. It's pretty awesome. I remember when I first told some friends about it, they were hesitant to try it and maybe a little grossed out, but I assure you, there are no actual cupcake ingredients in the cupcake sushi. It's literally just made up of what you would normally find in sushi (rice, salmon, avocado, and spicy mayo if you want) but in the form of cupcakes. It's called cupcake sushi because it looks like a cupcake. The order comes with two cupcakes. Definitely give it a try. Taste | 4 Atmosphere | 4 Presentation | 4 Service | 3 OVERALL | 4 read more

The way I gauge a sushi place is by ordering my favorite go-to item: Chirashi. It's supposed to be a bowl of sushi rice (meaning seasoned vinegared rice) with an assortment of scattered toppings including fish. The reason I do this is multi-fold: 1) it gives me an idea of what their sushi rice is like (which is what sushi actually is -- the vinegared rice); 2) I get to taste the ingredients separately; 3) I get some variety when I'm feeling indecisive. Based on what I received this place clearly failed. I should have been suspicious when I saw the kitschy items like "sushi doughnuts" but I figured it can't be that hard to make good sushi rice and have some fish and other items. And it definitely wasn't because I ordered delivery. Now, the fish wasn't bad. Its texture and smell were fine. (Side note: I have to laugh about all the folks on yelp being like "ugh you can't have fresh sushi in a place like PGH" when the FDA guidelines state that any fish besides tuna has to be frozen to be free of parasites. But I digress). They were definitely smaller than I'd seen before, but for the price I'm not shocked. I was very disappointed there was no roe, no seaweed salad, no veggies. But this isn't even the biggest sin of this order... no... Not only was the sushi rice warm (and completely unseasoned save for maybe a quick dash of some sesame)... the toppings were served separate. Maybe, just maybe it was an off night and the poor soul left to make my order didn't know what the heck chirashi was. I get they didn't want my fish to get warmed up in transport. But that's the thing -- the rice isn't supposed to be hot. Basically it looked like someone threw some rice into a container then assembled a weak-sauced sashimi platter. Maybe if you're looking for some of those monstrosities that are deep fried and covered in sauce this might be the place for you. And won't lie, sometimes I indulge in such things myself. And I can at least say the fish is acceptable. But if you're going for more simple and/or traditional fare, this isn't for you. read more
