    Service is pretty good and ambience was all right. I like that they have a variety of rolls, but we absolutely loved their house salad. It was unique with the canned pineapple. It also had beets, avocado, and a really good miso vinaigrette. The California roll is pretty good. I did not like the spicy tuna. It was very fishy and it also wasn't spicy. The cucumber roll was delicious, but I'm kind of boring like that.

    A local favorite for north end folks. Sushi is always fresh and presentation is good. Servers are friendly and attentive, and the chefs ensure the quality standards meet your expectations. Located in a strip mall across the parking lot from Sprouts Market.

    Chirashi Sushi Hawaiian Style Tuna Poke
    Mandy W.

    I've been coming to Sushi Zen for 10 years, not exaggerating, and they always provide high quality, consistent, delicious food. The seafood is always fresh and flavorful; the Hawaiian poke is my absolute favorite, it's so flavorful and spicy but not overwhelmingly so. You can also get the poke don which is the poke served over sushi rice. Speaking of the rice it is always ON POINT! It's well seasoned and skillfully cooked; not just overcooked sticky rice. The chirashi is another favorite. Pretty much everything comes with miso and a salad, the dressing delicious. As for rolls, I love the Salmon Lemon roll the most, as well as the Crouching Tuna Hidden Shrimp. It's not a huge restaurant and the decor is clean and simple, but it's almost always busy. The lead sushi chef is an absolute delight with an elephant's memory! He recognizes me and my spouse every time we come in and asks after the other if one of us comes in alone. And every farewell is, "see you tomorrow!"

    Great spot for sushi, wonderful service. *Dear Yelp, here are a few more sentences for the people who enjoy reading reviews rather than getting outside & experiencing what this world has to offer. Remember what life was like before yelp? We just went places 'cause they looked cool, tried restaurants 'cause they looked nice or someone recommended it... but now, most of us go on Yelp. Why? To read novel length reviews from wannabe journalists? Or are you like me: I just want to look at the menu before hand, check out the prices, & know if I'll get food poisoning or not. Either way, you read this long rant, thanks, I hope I made you laugh

    3. "San" Kids Menu
    Connie S.

    Looking for a good sushi place, I went onto Yelp to find one close to where we were vacationing. Sushi Zen came up with great ratings so my family and I decided to give it a try. We came in around dinner time and the place was already starting to fill up. Walking in it felt very cozy and it was nicely decorated. To the left you have the sushi bar that you can easily see your sushi being made. And to the right were the tables. We were seated immediately and looked at the menu right away. As far as the sushi goes, they gave you a piece of paper where you could designate what you want. And for the other dishes, you can order off the menu. They had everything from your typical sushi to chicken katsu to veggie croquettes with specials written out on their board. For starters we tried Tamago (sweet egg), Unagi (fresh water eel), and Veggie Croquette. All were delicious, but my favorite would have to be the Unagi. Next up our main course. I opted for the Spider Roll (deep fried soft shell crab, avocado, cucumber, tobiko, spicy mayo, and radish sprouts). My daughter got the kids meal "San" which came with tempura udon and 3 pieces of a California roll. My son being a non-sushi eater got the chicken katsu that was accompanied by miso soup and rice. I really liked my dish. The soft shell crab was crunchy and flavorful. My daughter enjoyed her kids meal as she had eaten nearly everything. My son was surprised by the size of his dish and could not finish half of it so of course he ended up having to box it up for leftovers. He said that it was okay. When I asked him why, he said because there was no katsu sauce with it, which is understandable. Now onto dessert....we got 3: Tempura Ice Cream, Tempura Brownie with Ice Cream, and Mochi Ice Cream (coffee flavor). They were hands down so delicious. The crunchy texture of both the brownie and the outer layer of the tempura was amazing. I would highly recommend. The coffee mochi ice cream was the same as others we have tried. I would certainly want to come back and try out their lunch specials.

    We stopped in here with friends on a weekday for dinner. They open at 5 PM, we got there a few min before 5 PM, and there were several ppl waiting outside already. We were a table of 7, and got seated right away. They do not have happy hour here anymore. We were all very happy with all the sushi we ordered, from the rolls, to the sashimi, everyone in the group enjoyed the food. Prices were typical. Overall, still a good experience getting sushi here.

    Poke-Don
    Jule G.

    Service and food are both great. My only minus is that the restaurant is all open space so the kitchen cooking smell permeates the entire restaurant. Poke-don is delicious every time. It's on the spicy side, so people who normally order 1-2 stars might find it too much.

    We went to Sushi Zen for the first time yesterday and had a great experience! Staff is extremely friendly and attentive. The restaurant had a great, lively atmosphere. But, most importantly, the fish was so fresh! We got an order of the baked mussels, which were great! The crab on top really puts them miles above any other baked mussels we've had at other sushi spots. For our mains my husband ordered a shrimp tempura roll which had plenty of pieces to fill him up. I ended up with the sushi sashimi combo plate which came with 4 sashimi, 6 pieces of sushi, tempura, a California roll, gyoza and rice. It was way more than enough! For $25 you get a great assortment of items - perfect for someone who can't commit to just one thing haha. By the end of the meal, we spent about $80 with tip. It was a little more on the expensive side, but for the quality we'll certainly be back next time we're in the area!

    A local gem for sushi or other Japanese food in Mill Creek area, located right by Sprouts. It's a great place for both lunch or dinner, whether you're looking for an omakase experience or something light with a group of friends. Many reviews talk about the sushi but the non-sushi items are AMAZING as well - I always order the Katsu-don and it comes with a great portion of veggies and rice underneath the meat. Restaurant is clean and the staff are so friendly! Definitely recommend giving this place a try.

    Combination of a Crouching Salmon Hidden Shrimp roll, spicy tuna roll, Zen roll, and Philly roll.

    In short The vibe is all friendly neighborhood joint, but…read morethe fish (especially the sashimi) is excellent. Hard to beat this place. In long We've been meaning to try it forever and finally dragged our carcasses in here when we were coming back from an afternoon up north. Quiet Sunday night on Thanksgiving weekend, and we scored perfect parking and got a table instantly. So we're already in a great mood, right? It's a shoebox-shaped room with a few extra tables in one corner. Newish strip mall construction. You can come in from either end, which I would not have guessed. It's sparkling clean and well lit with some nice warmth to the lighting. Big flatscreens behind the sushi bar, probably tuned to the ballgame or the news or something. The menu feels comfortingly familiar. The usual apps, solid list of sashimi, lots of classic rolls and then a couple full pages of specialty rolls. Matcha for later. So far you don't feel like you're in crazy territory, though they do list hamachi collar as an all-the-time hot dish, which is cool. So many places run out of it right away and list it only as a special, but not here. The sake list is just enough--a couple of each type, some solid and reasonably-priced house options, a couple really nice picks. You get your sake right away and the miso doesn't take much longer. The takoyaki was delicious and beautiful. Lots of garnish, boiling hot, great flavor. Nice tako bits in there, lots of creamy filling. They garnish the seaweed salad with daikon and load it with cucumber. More places should do both of these things. The cucumber in particular enhanced the flavor a ton. Once the rolls showed up, things got better and better. The Love Hunter and the Amazing were both fantastic. Great combinations of flavors and textures, generously portioned and topped. We got some classic taki too, and that was a great contrast. I love it so much when places nail the classics and the modern. I got the deluxe sashimi dinner. For $36 this is such a value. The hamachi and the other tuna were both super buttery, the salmon had tons of flavor, and there were a couple other nice fish on the plate as well. It's great when you find a place you're super happy you tried, but this immediately goes into the rotation as an any-night sushi spot. Affordable enough you don't have to wait for a special occasion! Dig this place hard.

    Highly quality sushi and great roll options :)…read more This spot is located very centrally within the Mill Creek Town Center so it is a good spot for a little day out in the area. It is a smaller restaurant so it may be a good idea to call before going in for the dinner rush. I went on a solo outing here for lunch and was surprised that they have an all day happy hour for most of their operating days (excluding holidays). The happy hour offered a great selection of apps and a good selection of rolls! I opted to try the smokey roll which was on the happy hour menu. This roll featured smoked salmon on top which was very tasty. I also ordered the deluxe salmon roll which was also very good! I recommend requesting a side of spicy mayo for the smokey roll. Overall, I was super happy for both of my rolls and the price was not too bad for high quality sushi!

We were craving some something warm and since this one was the closest in the area and one of the only places that has ramen, we decided to give it a try. We ordered the Red Volcano Tonkotsu And Tonkotsu Ramen. The ramen noodle itself was good and chewy. Egg was perfectly cooked with yolk on the inside and well marinated on the outside. We thought the broth was okay, it needed more flavor and it didn't really taste like authentic Japanese ramen to us. The red volcano was very very spicy, I do not recommend if you cannot handle spice, I really thought it was just a kick of spice before ordering but it was actually very spicy that it was almost impossible to enjoy the broth. The regular tonkotsu was lighter in flavor. Both ramen dishes had this pickled vegetable and bok choy in there which is not like traditional Japanese ramen but we didn't mind the extra crunch. I wouldn't get the ramen again but I'm open to trying their sushi if I ever go again.

    *This establishment is take out only*…read more This was my third visit to Solid Teriyaki over the last few years. I recommend that you call them directly or walk in for takeout because those prices are much better than DoorDash or Uber eats will give you. This is a small family run establishment with excellent quality, food and customer service. Everyone I interacted with yesterday was extremely helpful and friendly. I was surprised that in this day and age their prices were still very good. I was just there to order takeout lunch for my husband and myself. I ordered the Seattle Roll, a spicy tuna roll, chicken and tempura combo, and an extra salad since the chicken entree came with a salad. I was not prepared for how much food I would receive! When I brought it home, my husband and I both laughed because we had so much food that there was no way we could eat it all. Not complaining! It was great! The tempura was easily the best I've had in the area. Perfectly done. The chicken teriyaki was perfect as well. The spicy tuna roll was excellent. The Seattle roll was really good, but did come with smoked salmon as advertised so patrons should be aware of that - you do taste the smoke. The salad was shredded cabbage with a delicious light dressing. This is hands down the best overall sushi/teriyaki place for take out in the Town Center in my opinion. For about $50, we got a TON of food that was really fresh and delicious. On top of that, this restaurant is impeccably clean and the staff pay attention to detail and care about their patrons. Our to go order was packaged up carefully and thoughtfully. I wholeheartedly recommend supporting this family and their amazing restaurant.

    If you're anywhere near Mill Creek and love sushi, do yourself a favor and go to Wasabi Bay…read more I genuinely can't say enough good things about this place. The sashimi is exceptional--always incredibly fresh, beautifully prepared, and the cuts are so generous. Every bite tastes clean, rich, and high-quality... exactly what you hope for but rarely find this consistently. My personal favorites? The Chirashi bowl is absolutely incredible, and I'm obsessed with their shrimp & veggie tempura and fried calamari appetizers--perfectly cooked, crispy, and seriously addictive. What really sets Wasabi Bay apart, though, is the experience. The staff is warm, attentive, and you can tell they truly care. On multiple visits, they've surprised me with a complimentary side dish--such a small gesture, but it says everything about how they treat their customers. This is the kind of spot you end up craving and recommending to everyone you know. Whether you're a sushi regular or just getting into it, Wasabi Bay is a must-visit.
