Great quality fish and nice selection of rolls, nigiri, and bento boxes. They also a nice entree selection of noodles and rice dishes if you're not into sushi. read more

Sushiya - Asian Fusion Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Sushiya has good value sushi. Decent, not amazing, flavored sushi rolls at a good price was what I had. I had spicy tuna lunch special with miso soup starter. The miso soup was standard fare of generally good flavor. The downside was that the tofu in soup had a very subtle mushroom/meaty flavor that was out of place to me. Overall I'd rate the soup 3.5 out of 5, since it also lacked kombu or other substantial seaweed as I expect in Japanese style miso soup. Sushi was 8 pieces spicy tuna & 4 pieces California rolls. Pieces were small diameter & overall small size. While the size of individual pieces was small, after eating all 12 pieces I felt sufficiently fed. The flavor of the sushi was okay to good, although to my taste the tuna wanted more spiciness. I expect spicy tuna to jump on my tongue with enthusiasm (i.e. be really spicy) & these pieces were pretty bland on that scale. The California rolls also tasted okay to good. This is not sushi that will change your life, but is decent fare at a good price. That's why I call it "value sushi". I just had water with the meal & it was a BIG glass of water. Kudos to Sushiya for the generous portion! The magical hot hand towel at the end of the meal was fun to watch expand after the waitress poured a little hot water on it. Nice bit of utilitarian theater. As noted, price was good. Twelve pieces sushi roll lunch special with miso soup & tax came to $7.50 range. My waitress was courteous & professional throughout the meal, so 5 stars for staff. read more

Sushiya - Crunchy roll and Caterpillar roll - Asian Fusion Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

This place is not bad for a sushi restaurant in ABQ. Location wise, it was pretty good and plenty of parking spaces outside. There was no wait on a Saturday night around 8 o' clock. The interior was not bad, typical sushi restaurant style and plenty of seating as well. Price wise, I'd say it is decent for sushi ( you also get 15% off from yelp for the first time). Food wise, I ordered a buddha belly which is a sushi roll and teriyaki beef bento box. Food The buddha belly has a mixture of different things( hamachi, tuna, crab..) and each piece is different. I would recommend this for those who are not exactly sure of what they want to get ( if you like raw fish). The bento box on the other hand contained stir fried vegetables with beef looking balls in teriyaki sauce. It tasted a bit more like Mongolian beef rather than teriyaki and the beef was a bit chewy. The box also came with seaweed salad, an egg roll, 4 pieces of California rolls ( tastes literally like nothing), fried 4 corner wonton that contains cream cheese ( not exactly good), and 4 pieces of tempura ( 3 piece vegetables and 1 piece shrimp). The tempura was excellent and one of the best I must say. Bento also came with a bowl of rice. As for my recommendation for this, I would have to say if you don't mind chewy beef, bland sushi and very good tempura, then go for it. I would recommend you getting just tempura in another order. read more

Sushiya - Buddha Belly - Asian Fusion Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

What a hidden gem!! By far the best sushi place I've eaten at in Albuquerque. Prices are affordable and the atmosphere is great. The presentation is as good as the food. No more plain fish on a bed of rice. The chef/owner is a genius when it comes to blending flavors. I recommend this place to anyone who loves great food and sushi! read more

So I usually end up and Hayashi or Azuma when I grab sushi in Albuquerque. Occasionally, I'll try a new spot hoping to find a hidden gem. First impression of Sushiya was nice, a little family owned restaurant in the NE Heights. Lot's of patrons during the dinner rush, quiet atmosphere and a friendly staff. Facilities could use a little finish work, especially the rest room. We ordered four rolls and a bento box. Although the menu indicated tamiko eggs, no lie - two of my rolls were drenched in tamiko. Specialty rolls were a bit too small for the price, although the ingredients were top quality. My daughter prefers her maki rolls on the sweeter side. Bento box was steak teriyaki. Steak was skimpy, mostly veggies. Shrimp tempura was not de-veined. Overall, not a bad experience but for the price would have opted for Azuma. read more

18 people on Christmas Eve. Great sushi, sushi were tightly rolled, and service was on point!

Miss being able to eat in person these days, but we live quite close & order on a very regular basis (about 1x every 2 weeks). The Eel & Cucumber arrives still warm! Yummy! We love their sushi rolls, nigiri & their chicken fried rice is the best in town!!! Highly recommend for in-person eating or take-out/delivery! read more

Sometimes you just have to look in the most overlooked places to find something delicious. This restaurant is nestled in the corner of a small strip mall that caught my attention from the street. Upon entering, you are treated to a calm, gentle atmosphere that uses the complimenting colors of the decor and paint to give it a moody vibe. The waitress, who helped me through my visit, was kind and courteous not hesitating when I asked a question or two. The soup was just as savory and pleasant to the palate, as anyone who respects Miso could attest. The sushi here was very tasty, despite the cost being very expensive. The entree was $20 and came with less items and variety than at previous restaurants I've visited. The sushi rice was still warm from just being made, the tuna roll had the perfect balance of texture and flavor. The adventure of experiencing new flavors brought me this nice little shop, but maybe next time I'll order a less pricey affair. read more

Imagine 2 families with 5 young children between them sitting down to a nice, quiet dinner.....now stop fantasizing because there is nothing quiet about that many kids at one table. As for the restaurant, the wait staff were friendly and quick. The food was very good. What made this visit four stars for me though was how they treated my request. I'm not a salmon fan, but I love a Philadelphia roll. I simply ask for it with Tuna. They could have hidden the tuna away inside the roll, but they layered the outside of the roll with Tuna and took it from a decent roll to a visually enticing dish. Satisfying the mind as well as the stomach is important to the dining out process. read more

Have eaten here numerous times now and they have never disappointed. I like trying different restaurants, but if it comes to Japanese in ABQ, I think I will stick to this one.The Unagi (eal) especially was great today read more

Quick service and delicious food. My daughter loved the California rolls, the yakisoba with beef was not what I expected but was super yummy. read more

Tried it today for lunch. The exterior is typical strip mall flair but inside it's cool and quiet. Great fast service. Ordered the lunch roll special: two rolls for 9.90. The tuna roll was kind of blah. The salmon aspargus roll excellent. Added veggie egg rolls which were good too. Overall a good experience. read more

So my husband and I had just moved him here back in December 2013. And we both were craving something light and I stumbled onto this place while surfing on Yelp. This place was a little hidden gem that I have managed to find again! The yakisoba was tasty and so was their sushi. I definitely want to go back and try them again. Staff were also nice. read more

This is a great little place! Tucked away in the corner of a retail outlet, you'd never know this gem existed. FOOD Good sushi menu with plenty of options. Their soups and appetizers are very good also. I was a little disappointed that their non sushi menu was not larger. But the non sushi items they did have were excellent. ATMOSPHERE Sushiya has modern Asian atmosphere and decor. No tacky decorations or weird music playing. Everything felt relevant and well put together. There is a small bar seating area that provides front and center viewing of sushi preparation. Also, the food is served with good presentation on modern plates and bowls. Finish off with a warm hand towel! read more

This is my favorite sushi place ever. The sushi is amazing and so is the soup that they serve. I highly recommend the crunchy roll as it is my favorite item on the menu. My only complaint is the service isn't as good as the food. Depending on the server it can be alright to awful but that aside I will keep coming for dinner because the food is awesome! read more

Still loving this place!!! Their spicy salmon roll is LIFE

The food was delicious and a nice atmosphere too. We had the monkey balls and the pan fried dumplings as an appetizer and the golden dragon roll and the sushiya roll for our entree. All were outstanding. And lots of giggles ordering the monkey balls. :) read more

My favorite sushi spot in Albuquerque! And their orange peel chicken is a go-to favorite! Great service as well.

They have the best sashimi and nigiri in Albuquerque. Their miso soup is now our favorite. Even with the luxurious cuts of fish, their prices are basically the same as everywhere else. We'll be back often. read more

I'm beyond happy that I moved up to this side of town and found sushiya! This is by far the BEST place I've found in abq so far. Granted, the price is a tad bit higher than competitors, but the value is miles ahead as well. I've ordered takeout as well as (free) delivery and never been disappointed. Most places tend to skimp out on you but I found that with sushiya, they never do. The rolls aren't packed with tons of rice, the menu is diverse and creative, and the food is executed with the highest of standards. If you haven't tried them yet, I'd highly suggest you give them a shot, you won't regret it! read more

My favorite sushi restaurant in Northeast heights. I always get the sashimi plate. Fresh, tasty and generous portions.

This is one of our family favorite restaurants in Albuquerque. They have some of the best Nigiri in Albuquerque according to my wife (especially since Kokoro is apparently gone!). I'm not a big Sushi guy, but I dig their Chinese food. General Tso's and the Sechuan are my favorites. If you like spicy, I would suggest asking them to add a bit more kick. I also suggest their sweet and sour soup and fried calamari (I would go just for these). We have been there several times and the wait staff is always very nice and attentive. The first time we were there (about a year ago) it was a bit slow to get our food. They apologized and gave us a discount for the slow service even though we didn't ask or complain (I like good customer service!). Every other time has been great and we can easily get in and out in under an hour. read more

If you are a real sushi fan who prefers sashimi to rolls of random stuff, then this is the place for you. While I find their rolls good, the quality and quantity of sashimi for the price is the best in town. read more

Best sushi joint in town, or at least, tied with Pacific Paradise. Depends on the sushi chef behind the bar, but I really haven't gotten anything bad here. Plus the service is always extraordinary. read more

My sister and I eat there quite often. Love the food and the prices are so reasonable. Bento boxes are wonderful, a little bit of everything. Lunch special rolls are superb. I would highly recommend this resturant. read more

I trusted this restaurant with feeding my family, as we would enjoy sushi here after long days as a treat. The staff began to know what we wanted right when we walked in. Unfortunately, they did not live up to their end of the bargain, and got a Red Sticker for horrible things in the kitchen. Such a devastating disappointment. read more

Great food and service !!will be back soon I had the lunch bento box, and the tempura was perfect read more

Average quality sushi with above average quantities. I'd give it a 3.5 if I could. They have a TV and you can ask them to play your favorite show or the game if you sit at the sushi bar. Arigato! read more

By far the best sushi in Albuquerque...and I have tried every place in Albuquerque. Will, the owner and sushi chef, is friendly and will sometimes send out small bites on the house which has introduced me to monkey balls and the green chile roll. You cannot go wrong with the sushi. Beautiful fresh cuts of sushimi. Fresh sushi rolls that are cut small enough to fit the whole piece in your mouth yet big enough to experience all the wonderful flavors. Beautiful presentation! Do not let its location or possibly lack of patrons in the restaurant fool you, it is just undiscovered. I recommend it to all my friends and everyone raves about it!! Try the hard rock. Try the calamari. Flamingo and Crunch excellent as well. Do not recommend Samurai on Montgomery and Eubank...its a pretty restaurant, but overpriced, poor service and sushi is not very good. read more

Absolutely fabulous!!! Their green chile roll is divine, and all of their sushi is wonderful! But if you don't like sushi... don't fret. They have a wide selection of Asian cuisine that is just as wonderful! The waitstaff is super nice and friendly, and they make the experience wonderful. I would recommend Sushiya all day long... also try their tempura California roll. yuuuummmmmmmmmm read more

Nice sushi place in the heights!! Slightly hidden in the corner of a shopping center. Always very welcoming. Food is great!! Always fresh. I always stick to a cucumber abs avocado roll and my sister always goes with the classic California roll. We always recommend this place to other sushi fanatics. Prices are good. They had gotten a red sticker from the city a while back but I'm unsure what for. Never had a bad experience before. read more
