    The papa roll and seasons roll both made gluten free
    Ashlie M.

    We love going to The Sushi. We always get right in and everything tastes delicious. We have a couple of people in the family that eat gluten free and they are great about accommodating to us. We love the seasons roll, jalapeño poppers and tempura shrimp and veggies. All gluten free.

    Good yellowtail and amaebi. The service was prompt and attentive as well. I was not a big fan of the tuna they used but other than that it was good. The Yakisoba had plentiful veggies and actually had Yakisoba flavor. Definitely worth grabbing some sushi and traditional Japanese fair if you're in the Sandy vicinity.

    Rolls

    Found this on Yelp and remember a while back there used to be a Hagermanns Bakery & Deli and a Sweet Nothings Bakery which both had AYCE all you could eat French toast. Never had their French toast but do remember some sandwiches and bakery items were decent. Back to this review: The Good: Soft shell crab Pot stickers Majority of the rolls The Bad: House salad Service What irked my buddy and I the most was that people that were seated after and had ordered after us received their meals first. One lady running the show, busing tables, taking orders, running food, and being a cashier. It was painful trying to flag her down to get some attention. Maybe the service is better in the evening? Nothing worse than taking a 90 minutes lunch on a busy workday. Might return.

    POSITIVES: Don't let the name fool you, this place is chock full of options besides sushi. Whether it's curry, rice, noodles, teriyaki chicken, a bento box, or a variety of ramen, this place offers lots of satisfying options. The appetizers are equally tempting : edamame, calamari, gyoza, takoyaki, etc. As far as sushi goes, this place nails it with a blend of great flavor and awesome presentation. I ordered the colorful "Playboy roll" (fried shrimp, salmon, tobiko--tiny fish eggs, and jalapeño) and the "Phoenix roll" (tempura shrimp, eel, avocado, salmon, jalapeño, green onion, sesame seeds, teriyaki sauce, and spicy mayo.). This roll was unlike anything if ever been presented with at a sushi restaurant...trust me, it is very exciting and worth every penny. The Japanese decor and theme is very friendly and inviting. The waitress was extremely polite and knowledgeable. Also, the mochi ice cream is fabulous, and you can't go wrong with it. NEGATIVES: the menu was covered in grease from someone fingers... Not sure if the material just attracts grease really easily or something... Also, there was a BOGO 50% off for all sushi rolls... I only ordered 2 rolls myself (one was $15ish, the other would have been about $7 with the offer), and I somehow still walked out paying $30, aside from tip. Still not terrible, but not what I had expected. PRICE: expect to pay $15-30 per person depending on how much food you get. VERDICT: it was a fun experience, and I'm definitely curious about some of the other sushi rolls (and curry!) It's love to come back, but given the price, I may have to wait until my work takes us out so it's on their dime.

    Brought the family and ordered various sushi rolls and a bowl of ramen. Great spot to stop by. Always passed by since it's next to Harmon's. Finally convinced the kids to have sushi instead is pizza and I'm glad we did. Quality of the fish was good when I ordered the large Sashimi platter. There was octopus I included so I'm not a big fan of that but I'll still keep this place rated 5 star for everything else. Hot sake was Purple Haze which I loved.

    We found this place on google cause we were wanting to take our out-of-town east-coast best friends somewhere cool. WOW. Some sushi places make it mushy and flavorless. This is one of the best rolls I've had in Utah.

    My boyfriend and I have been ordering here for about 2 years now and it's been one of our favorite…read moreplaces. It's always been my boyfriend picking up the food and our order has always been great. We never had any issues. He's always said they're really nice. We decided after almost 2 years we should dine in. Unfortunately I'm not sure if I want to come back after this terrible experience. I want to say that the food was great as it always is . Service tho absolutely the worst experience we both have ever had at any place. We walked in and servers were laying down in the booth on their phones that didn't bother me it was slow I get it but you could tell they were bothered by us walking in. They were not friendly and we were not welcomed. I ignored it and kept smiling since I tried to be understanding. We were seated and one of the girls comes up and takes our drink order as she's asking us she's scratching her head and you can hear the annoyance in her voice. Both me and my boyfriend were talking about leaving and both agreed we felt unwelcome but we love their food so we're like let's just keep trying and seeing if anything changes. We were friendly saying please and thank you everytime but they never said you're welcome they just walked away. The server comes also very annoyed. They checked on us for refills and to see how our food was a good amount I personally don't like being asked every minute how everything was so they did a good job on that. Then a family came in and the server had a smile I never once saw during our visit. I'm not sure what their issue was but we have never had any experience like this at any place we've dined in at . I think that says a lot about us and goes to show it definitely has nothing to do with us and everything with them. I served and hosted for a few years I know how it is when it's slow and you're relaxing and a customer comes in but also was taught to be professional and knew not to take out my laziness and annoyance on the customers.

    I'm here often. I've introduced many of my friends and family to eat at Sushi Bomb…read more I absolutely love the food and the service is excellent! They do offer wine, a very minimal selection.

    We have been told this place is pretty good and we decided to check them out…read more I'll give our first visit experience as well as our second. First, entering we were greeted by the servers who were smiley and friendly. The restaurant is decent sized and pretty clean. We were a little confused why it took almost 40 minutes to get our food. We were only one of three groups that were eating there. I am gluten free so I'm use to not having a ton of options and usually have to stay away from most of the sauces used but, I was able to order a few roles that are gluten free both naturally and/or after asking to not add a sauce. I was pleased to know they treat gluten free orders very cautiously and carefully. The roles are a good size, the fish tasted fresh and the flavors were great. Aside from the extremely long wait, the food was decent so we wanted to give them a second chance. Our second visit was much better. Greeted kindly again once we entered and sat right away. Our server was attentive and speedy. Our food came at a much better timing and the quality was consistent with our first visit. The prices are average, the quality of the food is good, servers are friendly and it's worth giving a shot

    This is by far our favorite sushi place around. Our kids love eating here. We got there Saturday…read morenight and it was pretty busy but we were seated right away. We ordered the orange chicken which came with rice and steamed broccoli and carrots. It was a big portion of chicken. We also got some sushi: golden salmon roll, kill bill roll, flame dragon roll, and Sumo roll. All these varied in taste and had different highlighted attributes. The flame dragon roll comes on fire and gives the salmon a really defined smoked flavor. I really liked that the golden salmon roll had a citrus tone. The kill bill roll had good crunch with the coconut tempera shrimp and some spicy with the jalapeño and cilantro. I really like all of the deep fried rolls but this one was especially good because of the tiger shrimp.
