A hidden gem in RI! I was introduced to this by my friends who lived and ate here since they were young. This is their go-to spot. I was skeptical because the menu was huge, but happy to say the sushi were wonderful. We got the Kayla roll, softshell crab roll, beef laab, and papaya salad. They gave us an extra Kayla because they made an extra, which was so nice. Rolls here were so good and the filling were generous. The chef behind the counter know what they're doing. The beef laab was pretty good, as well as the papaya. I didn't get to try any raw fish roll because my friend don't eat raw fish, but I will definitely try next time. I'm just so impressed at the different cuisines available here, yet they did all of them justice. We ordered for takeout but they do have a couple tables there for you to eat your takeout if you want to stay in restaurant. read more

This place will forever be a hole in the wall gem. My family and I stopped by for takeout / dining in at their small seating area, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We ordered a variety of sushi rolls along with a few other items, and everything was just as delicious as always fresh, flavorful, and made with care. The family who owns the restaurant was incredibly kind and welcoming, providing wonderful hospitality throughout our visit. Since my family was visiting from out of town and hadn't had Uncle Sushi in over 10 years, this visit felt extra special. I'm so glad we chose this spot for lunch, and it's definitely a place I'll keep coming back to! read more

I loved this combo. I felt the fish was fresh. It's definitely a takeout place but wish they did more with the space, it seems crowded and stuffy. The waits can be extremely long and they don't always answer their phone because they clearly get a lot of business with good reason. read more

Uncle Sushi & Grill - Sushi combo #2 - Sushi Bars Near Me - Cranston, Rhode Island

I wanted to try a new sushi spot. When I looked at the pictures online, I liked that some of the rolls were fried, and they have a large selection of cooked sushi to pick from. I went in wanting to try the Kayla roll and the steak and cheese roll, and that's exactly what l ordered for my friend and I. Each roll was $11-$12 which wasn't bad for the size - 10 big pieces. The names of the rolls were creative, with one even named after the car wash right behind their building. There were people eating there, but they didn't have a sit-down option; I was a bit confused. One of the staff members clarified that they don't officially serve to dine in, but you could take your order and sit inside. I just took it to my car to keep things simple. I think they should offer a sit down since it seems like there is a demand for it. Anyways, our food came out after about 7-10 minutes, and it was warm and crispy. The pieces were very big, so l had to split it up into 2 bites. However, lots of flavor packed into each roll. The steak and cheese roll had steak, but you couldn't really taste it much since the cheese and sweet soy sauce dominated. The shrimp in the kayla roll was tasty and the other fillings were fresh. read more

I very rarely give 5 stars but this as ppl say little hole in the wall is my absolute go to for sushi. They already know me as Sol there. Everything is good but without fail I ALWAYS order the Kayla roll which is cooked. I have mastered the chopsticks which I'm proud of. They have gotten busy since the TikTok video went viral so or in advance. It's a family owed business. They take cash and card. The parking is a bit small and so is the inside. You can eat in but not dine in if this makes sense if not let me explain you can place your order grab it and sit at a table to eat it but no waitresses. I've said they need to expand but this is the staple location and ppl keep coming. The prices are reasonable. read more

Best sushi! My favorites are Kayla Roll, Miracle roll , Suicide Roll(Removing the jalapeño from top you can ask if you can only handle little heat) and spicy tuna on the rocks! Worth the wait!!! I call in the morning to have my order ready for dinner time so that way it's prepared when I get there. Only thing negative is always busy, parking and never answer calls. I think maybe to open a bigger place and hire more help! Asides from that amazing!! read more

Food was good, like the sauce with the gyoza. Really like the sweet potato roll as well (not pictured) Parking is tricky, small lot, but there is street parking on the side street. Also, although they have tables, and you can eat in there, they put the food into to go containers, so we just took it to go. Which is not a bad thing. Their bathroom is blocked off though, so we didn't ask to use it. Staff is nice, and sushi is made right in front of you. read more

Uncle Sushi & Grill - Salmon roll and avocado roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Cranston, Rhode Island

Grabbed takeout from here. You either call or order in store. No online ordering.. that I could find so let me know if I'm wrong. Crab tempura was solid (good) made with real crab not the kani stuff, I always prefer the real thing so wherever it's offered, I'm going to order it. Not a huge fan of sauces but this went well with the fried crab. The Spicy Lobster didn't give spice in the sense I was thinking of, no hot peppers or sauces or anything. Still enjoyed it, an elevated California roll. The steak hibachi was dry, as you can probs tell in the picture. Definitely wouldn't reorder -- I have been back for both rolls though, they're always fresh and consistently good. read more

This place recovered nicely from the bad press it received about 10 years ago. This is my current go-to for sushi roll craving, those big sushi combos my husband savors and soft shell crab appetizer. I have tried a number of their appetizers but not a big fan of the hibachi cooked items. I have had their Pho on a few occasions. I enjoyed this place much more when I was able to dine in and do a BYOB. Having a liquor store across the street was very convenient for such an occasion. I have been only doing take out since the pandemic but I *hear* that the dine in has opened again. This place is always busy so that is a good sign. Personally, though, I think their cooked rolls all taste pretty much alike. This is why I stick to about 3 different kinds and that's it. In the spirit of helpfulness, I would say most items here are fine save for the shrimp tempura. It is not a tempura at all. It is a floured up shrimp that is fried, that is all. Overall, you cannot go wrong here for quick cravings and reasonable prices. read more

I tried Uncle Sushi for the first time early May 2024 and have already returned for more. The sushi is out of this world. The flavors are so fresh and there's so many different rolls to try. It gives me an excuse to treat myself to more sushi haha! The girl taking orders and helping with check out is so so so nice! I doubt I'll ever have an issue here but if I do, I know she'll help me out! Don't even look at other sushi places. Uncle Sushi is the way to go!! read more

Have been a local uncle sushi supporter for years and easily spend on average 50+dollars on an order but these days it's not looking the same. Food is great but wait times should not be 50+ mins especially for a walk in. I can't enjoy a sushi roll because I won't wait for food that long. This Needs to change or people will go somewhere else sadly regardless of the taste read more

Sushi is always fresh and food pick up is very convenient. Friendly staff! The restaurant is small , a couple of tables to eat in, never have yet, usually order and pick up in my way home! read more

Food is good but come on. Am i the only one that constantly have trouble trying to get a hold of someone when placing an order to go. Phone is busy for an hr or even more. I even try calling before i walking in and the phone is just sitting there near the register. Its like the leave it on hold so they dont have to do orders. read more

Cheerful customer service! "Uncles roll" was delicious w shrimp, tempura, avocado, cucumber! We also had "UNCLES special noodle soup" with chicken. It was absolutely fabulous, clean and fresh bean sprouts and condiments. My colleagues at work go here regularly and order food to go at least three times a week ! When I arrive to pick up the food, there is often a line of cars and customers waiting for their "to go" orders. read more

The sushi here never fails me! Here's why: Pictured are the Suicide, Kayla, and King rolls. If you like an extra kick of hotness, the Suicide roll with jalapeno and sriracha is calling for you. The Kayla roll was good; shredded imitation crab on top, shrimp tempura, and other fillings I cannot recall. Can you blame me? If something's tasty, you'd want to stuff yourself fast! Lastly, my experience with the King roll never changes; it's good, I order it every time, and yes, it's good. Every roll is filling and each bite is generously packed. I can't say that about many sushi spots, but Uncle Sushi is worth every buck! In other words, the rolls are huge for the price. You could share various rolls with friends or eat by yourself in one sitting (like I did for this review). Uncle Sushi has always been one of my favorite spots to dine. Birthday? Celebration? Third-wheeling my sister's date? It always felt like home with the cozy atmosphere. Although it's closed for dining, I'm quite happy they're open for take-out at the moment. My three rolls were made in 20 minutes during lunchtime. Everything tastes fresh, clean, and of course, delicious! Some personal favorites include the steak and cheese roll (fried Heaven) and the Rainbow roll. Besides the sushi, I can assure you the menu's selection is authentic. If you're looking for good khao piak (rice noodle soup) or papaya salad, Uncle Sushi can offer you these yummy dishes. Parking can be difficult to find with the cute shop, but don't let that stop you from a good foodie experience! Also, do it for me, please. I wish I lived closer, otherwise, I'll order from here every week! read more

This was my second time ordering takeout and it was a terrible experience. The first time wasn't good but I thought I'd give them another shot. The food was made quickly and that was about the only positive. I ordered my food and the menu on their website did not match what they offered nor did the prices match. This was extremely disappointing as I placed orders expecting a certain outcome that was not matched. This Philly roll was not made properly. It had the right contents but the roll itself seemed weird and taste weird as well. The Kayla roll was just underwhelming and difficult to eat. The hibachi scallop was extremely salty, and the scallops was chopped up into tiny pieces. I had to throw away all the food and it made my stomach hurt. I'm not sure what everyone sees in this place but there is better quality elsewhere read more

Good rainy day meal, friendly service. Khao piek sen could have used more seafood but the noodles & broth were prepared perfect -- not too thin or thick. Sushi was great. I would definitely suggest to order their signature roll, the Kayla Roll. Ordered fried ice cream for dessert which was also delicious. Thai tea is also good to order a long with the meal. Many people prefer ordering take out, and I definitely would if take out didn't take too long. read more

I visited the menu and saw a sushi lunch special for $9.95. I was excited and ordered. Arrived for pickup and received just sushi, no salad no soup. For $20. Extremely overpriced. Not sure how this is considered a lunch special read more

Affordable, fresh sushi for takeout. The food is always good, the ingredients good quality. The is our go to for work lunch.

Most recent three experiences: 1. Phone busy all night 2. 1.5 hour wait for pick up. Did not order 3. Spent $60 on take out for 2. Had $10 cash for tip. Asked for 4 spicy Mayo. Charged 50 cents each that reduced tip to $8. When I did not receive my full meal, received an AWFUL attitude when I mentioned I did not appreciate getting charged 50 cents per spicy mayo .... Just spent $60 + $10 tip... give me some spicy mayo with my meal please without charging me !!!!! Not good business uncle sushi, I won't be back! read more

The fact that I have to give a one star review makes me sad because I used to love this place! Anyway, here goes: I hadn't ordered from them in a long time and I was craving a Kayla Roll, so last night I ordered about $60 worth of food...... Everything was gross. The rice was way too salty, the spicy Mayo was thick AF, the dumpling sauce was coagulated, the fried chicken was horrible, and the sushi made me feel sick after eating it. The food was so bad it was lowkey hilarious. I wish I took pictures of the chicken, Y'ALL........... I've never had fried chicken wings that were greasy, but dry on the inside and little stale on the outside. I Understand that Covid threw all of us for a loop, especially family-owned restaurants and small businesses. I usually try to be patient with restaurants during these difficult and unprecedented times. But the quality of this food was so inexcusably bad. They used to be my go-to..... after this experience, no more. read more

Sushi is amazing, definitely a hole in the wall type of place. If you're a local, you KNOW it's always busy. So the wait is inevitable but sooo worth it. My favorite is the KAYLA and RI roll. THE BEST THAI TEA IN RI hands down. Sorry just had to get that out there. My favorite dish is the papaya salad with sticky rice and chicken wings! read more

I've never dined in but have had takeout several times when my sister treats me to dinner. It's a small hole in the wall with few tables but truly a spot for Lao/Thai soul food. I've had the papaya salad w/sticky rice, chicken wings, pho, sausages w/spicy sauce on the side, laab and their sushi as well. All the Lao/Thai food I listed was amazing and just like a home cooked Lao meal made by family. The spices and seasonings are on point and authentic. I've had the Kayla and suicide maki rolls for sushi and both were amazing as well. read more

Their sushi is AMAZING!!! My personal favorite is of course the Kayla Roll ! The Suicide Roll is good as well but not as tasty as the Kayla. The Suicide Roll is spicy and includes raw fish just so you know, whereas the Kayla Roll is much more savoury and everything is cooked! The papaya salad is very good too! As for the interior of the place... I think they could work on it a little more... It can be cleaner. read more

This place does not look like much as you drive by and parking can be problematic but a lot of people tend to park at the HoneyDew Donuts lot. The sushi here is rather one of the best and tastiest Ive tried so far. And the dishes are authentic to the Laos motherland that include Papaya salad, Chicken larp or Beef larp, Khao Piak-like a rice porridge but made with fresh rice flour noodles, and of course sticky rice. The menu includes other known dishes like fried rice and hibachi style stir fry. Hopefully you have a lot of patience if you end up going on a busy night. Other than the service can be slow at times, with the food, you won't be disappointed. I tend to order take out if I know its going to be busy. read more

Came here by recommendation. My friend loves this place but more-so recommended the steak and cheese roll and Pho. So I picked this place for my going-away dinner with friends. It's EXTREMELY tiny. Not so good for big crowds, but more for an intimate dinner for two. They had no problem with accommodating my group of 7. And we were LOUD and rowdy and they didn't mind that at all. Not so sure about our fellow patrons though. Oh well. Be warned: they do NOT serve ANY alcohol! It is BYOB. Which I also don't mind, but was not aware of. So my Johnny-Come-Lately friends stopped for some drinks. I chose a sushi place because I've been trying to get my non-sushi loving friends to actually TRY sushi. Ha. Well needless to say I ended up eating a LOT of sushi that night. A lot. And going home with even more. How could you not like sushi?!? It's my life. Anywho normally I don't go for Americanized sushi like a steak and cheese. But my friend ordered it and she couldn't get past the seaweed taste. So I ate it and I really enjoyed it. I of course got normal orders of sushi like the Rainbow Roll, a white tuna roll...and two others I don't quite remember. It was all really delicious. My friends got the crab ragoo roll, which was a hit. They also ordered an array of chicken, which was really good as well. If you don't like pickled fishy salad, do not get the papaya salad. It was recommended and I hated it. But at least I tried it! Overall we had a blast!! Very down to earth and the owners are super friendly. An 8 year old girl did come out at the end of the night, Haha. Not sure where she came from or how long she'd been there. No one got food poising or sick from the food though. So I've got nothing bad to say! read more

Should have ate a bowl of cereal instead of coming here lol! Customer service is poor. I understand people here consider this the spot but it's not even that great nor the prices are super cheap for this place to be packed. Boston roll was ok, but second thoughts about having sushi because I figured it would taste fresh! First time here and not impressed at all. Waited more than 25 minutes for some sloppy pho. Chicken teriyaki was decent at best. People behind me literally just left upset because they never got their food. I am sure there are way better options out there in Providence. Save your time and money. Weak- PVD you got to be better than this. read more

Soooooo haven't been here in years I ordered 3 rolls Cranston roll, Cindy roll and the California roll along with the sticky rice and papaya salad and their spicy wings.

Not happy however on a lighter note who ever made the papaya salad was on point! read more
