Ah Sushi Train Unley how I want to love you more but my heart has fallen from your sister (store) as she has been more honorable to me than you. Unfortunately despite choo-choo choosing this place as my preferred sushi hang out when I'm in the neighbourhood, I can't quite go past the lower standard of performance this sushi train has compared to my Gouger St favourite. Yes I do play favourites children. The go-withouts that have made me reach my star rating: - They don't do clam sushi and that is my partner's favourite - I went in one Saturday night at peak service period and they only had raw salmon available. Things get a bit boring when you have salmon sashimi, salmon nori, salmon sushi rolls... you get where I'm going - The service is a bit slower here than most I won't give up on you though Sushi Train as you are the master of consistently fresh sushi across Adelaide and I love that in a franchise. I just wish you were a little more like your sister... read more

Now be prepared to wait a little while for a booth or a spot around the train. This place was sooooo busy but in a good way! We probably waited about 15-20 minutes before we got our spot. Plenty of options available on the train but the staff were attentive in asking if we wanted to order off the menu. When we did order off the menu food was quick to come out, except once we had to remind them... The chefs even kept asking if we wanted to order more. This is a cheap night out and a really tasty dinner. read more

Sushi Train - Japanese Near Me - Hyde Park, SA

See all

I have been here three times and each time I have been underwhelmed with the quality and variety on offer. If the selection on the train doesn't do it for you, get in early with the staff and order up, they'll make it for you reasonably quickly. Tables turn over slowly so expect a wait, and keep in mind it is a popular choice with families, which means streams of kidlets. I prefer the sushi train on Gouger Street for this style of 'fast-food' sushi, if you are looking for something a little more authentic head around the corner to King William Road, you won't be dissapointed there. read more

The freshest sushi I have had in a long while! I am not the most adventurous sushi eater, I'll be honest, I usually stick to tuna and avocado so I find the sushi I like is always there as it's a popular dish. They have always offered to make me my sushi as well if I'm just getting takeaway and I can't see what I want straight away. This sushi train is always busy, busy, busy so the atmosphere reflects that. Once I was there with a friend and after 10mins they were trying to hurry us out! Overall I think this is my fav sushi place in Adelaide AT THE MOMENT....I have just read that the one in the city gives it a run for it's money..so I'll have to check it out soon. Overall the Unley sushi train is clean and friendly, and the sushi is always fresh which is what you want. Hmm I think I'll be getting some sushi for lunch tomorrow! read more

Sushi Train has always been a consistent go to Japanese place for us. Casual catch ups with friends and all. True to its name it has the conveyor belt and booth or bar seat thing happening like all other branches. The Unley one is one of the newer additions and rather nicely decorated hence our preferred location. Quite often the wait is shorter than the CBD. Food wise Karaage Udon is my regular order along with Aburi Salmon and Okonomiyaki. Their sushi are indeed always fresh and enjoyable. Only thing I would say is they are looking to turn tables as fast as possible. There was once we were asked about 4 times if we were done and a number of waitresses kept looking at our table impatiently wanting to clear us out. It was a weekday late lunch and we were just slower eaters I suppose (between all the chatting) but it made us uncomfortable and there was no need for that. Sadly for that I am giving this place 3 stars instead of 4. read more

Sushi Train is addictive. It must be the little train of sushi that goes around and tempts you to eat everything. I haven't been to the other ones but this one looks pretty big and modern. It gets pretty busy so if you don't like waiting on a wait list on a Sunday afternoon, order take away instead. The sushi is excellent. I love watching the staff make it, especially the aburi salmon, which is blow-torched. I love drinking the asian drinks as well like the ones with the marbles you have to pop-in. Difficult at first. The staff are friendly and you will occassionally hear Japanese. Of course! And although they can't make people leave, they have a good wait list system. It's only about 10-20 mins. It's worth it for the sushi train experience. Otherwise best to go to a normal sushi shop. read more

I love Sushi Train, perhaps too much. It is potentially the only establishment where I will happily wait 15-20 minutes to be seated and return each and every time. The staff are always attentive even when it is crazily busy (which is most of the time). If your favourite dish isn't on the train it will be made fresh right before your eyes. I love watching all the different dishes glide past, and it makes deciding even more difficult because there is no guarantee it will still be on the train in a few minutes. If you love sushi you will no doubt have already tried Sushi Train, if not, get down there ASAP, you won't regret it. Although you will be addicted. read more

What can I say I'm a fan. I absolutely love sushi and as far as sushi chains go Sushi Train is the standout. The sushi is alway fresh and very tasty. I love to watch the chefs as they make the different types of sushi, and the smells as they use the blow torch to sear the aburi salmon. To put the 5 star rating into context, I have compared Sushi Train to the other fast food style sushi bars such as cherry blossom etc. I have not compared Sushi Train to the likes of Shiki and Matsuri. read more

First time sushi in Adelaide and that too at sushi train. What more could one ask for. It's the best I have had till date along with such a great experience. Very courteous staff and quick service. The food doesn't seem to finish read more

Yep, at the wrong time of day it's really really busy, but deservedly so, as this is one great Sushi Train, with a rich palette of different dishes. Over the months and years they've also managed to introduce plenty of new plates into their line-up, which means I'm always excited to come here again and explore all the delightful flavours on option. read more

Another sushi train, good quality sushi as usual. There's rear car park. Near other retail shops, great for a quick lunch. It wasn't very busy today, but the service was slower than usual. I was standing there for a few mins before anyone came to direct me for sitting. I had to wave and ask for a drink as well. I only ordered a few plates, but it took a while. I had been to other much busier sushi trains, service has been very efficient. And when I almost finish my meal, I realised my wallet was stolen and I lost my membership card. I told them about it and unfortunately they can't track your card and you won't have the points back. So I had to pay another 3 bucks for a new card with no points on it. Tip: use your credit every time you eat there, just in case it got lost or stolen. No replacement. read more

It's so easy to get hooked on this place. I am a massive fan, great food & atmosphere.

Great sushi, VIP membership system is OK, and and great service. If you can't see the sushi roll that you want come around, you can just ask one of the people, and they will bring what you asked for very quickly. This store is less busy than the other sushi trains in Adelaide. read more

This place is way overrated - has been since the day it opened. I've been here two or three times; you would have thought I'd have learned. A wait of 45 min plus on Wed night!! WOE?! Next time I'll drive an extra 10min to Gouger St S Train and simply walk in. The way rowdy music here is just unnecessary and makes for a very stressy experience. You'd think there was nowhere else in Adelaide to eat sushi. Never, ever again!! read more
