“This little gem was a massive surprise. I just happened to Google sushi restaurants nearby as I was trying to find a place to grab a bite to eat while rush hour traffic died down. So glad Google led me here! The sushi is fresh and delicious! Beautiful presentation and top-notch service. I would recommend this place to anyone. I just wish I lived close enough to come over and over and over again.“
“Great variety and selection as well as very reasonable prices. The portions are extremely generous and we usually have left overs!Parking: The parking is very accessible and I have found a spot every time I have been here.Kid-friendliness: This restaurant is very kid friendly. It is a calm vibe and is great for all ages.“
“My husband and I absolutely love this place. We come here regularly for their $12 dinner special. For $12 you get 3 types of rolls, a side, and miso soup. Not only is it a great deal, but their food tastes amazing. This is a small family owned business and the owners have always been friendly and attentive to us. It’s not a fancy place by any means, but that is just what I love about it and it’s cozy inside. Our favorite dinner roll is their Tampa roll - simple and delicious.“
“I was saying this a couple of times in Tampa Bay Area restaurants, but now I mean it. This is the best sushi I’ve ever tried in my life! We tasted a lot, but sashimi set and "Godzilla" sushi were just perfect. Very nice service and atmosphere. Thanks a lot!“
“We first saw this local restaurant around July of 2023 when preparing for a wedding. next to this restaurant and I think they have just opened not long ago. It was afternoon and when we entered , a young nice gentleman greets us and told us tho sit at any table we prefer. We looked at the menu and I ordered the a salad with shrimp and rice . The sauce tastes so good but very spicy and I didn’t mind the spiciness . We have been going there ever since and we sat at the same table from day one and they know exactly what food we like . My husband had the duck with mixed vegetables and a bowl of rice and he loves it .“
“Incredible. Incredible. Incredible. Thalia, the owner, is so caring for her customers. I was overwhelmed by all of the amazing things on the menu, and she simply made me a custom roll with all of my favorite ingredients. The vibe is super dope & the atmosphere the employees create is one of comfort & attentiveness. BEST vegan sushi restaurant on the planet! ?“
“My husband and I have been looking for a new sushi spot for the last year. We finally found a new candidate, The Sushi Spot/Hibachi. I had the Dynamite roll which lived up to its name. My husband enjoyed the Vicki roll and the Sexy Man roll. What a contender.“

“Overall the best place for all you can eat lunch special for$22 per person, which includes excellent ice cream for dessert!Food is goodService is fast and friendlyClean placeI highly recommend this location, especially if you love sushi ...“
“Pete's is our favorite restaurant in Mad Beach! The sushi and poke bowls are fresh and high quality. The staff work hard and are very kind. They opened a second location next to the Sweet Brewnette. I highly suggest trying them the next time you are in the mood for sushi!“
“I've been trying just about every sushi place that I encounter. I have yet to eat at one that I found was disgusting or even below average. Charlie's sushi was delicious and I'm looking forward to going back and ordering a variety so that I can leave more of a detailed review. If you are considering sushi at Charlie's then I highly recommend adding Charlie's to the list of must try. You won't be disappointed.“
“We were not expecting the quality this place delivers. Went with my family who are mild sushi fans, they were happy with the place but i was very positively surprised by both quality of rolls and service level.I’d love to go back for a more thorough experience. Definitely recommend for sushi/japanese option.“
“Yaki-mono is a must for delicious food, awesome service & great atmosphere.Top spot. We will absolutely come back EVERYTIME.Dietary restrictions: I am glucose intolerant and was able to substitute rice noodles. The food is outstanding. Filling and delicious.Parking: Parking here was no problem. Visible signs warn people about towing. As long as you can read, you're safe.“
“I’ve been enjoying Sushi Rock Grill for a very long time. Anytime I’m in the area I always make sure to stop by and enjoy their creations.I had the Sushi Nachos and the Volcano Lobster. I also enjoy The Pear chilled sake.Wonderful meal as always.“
“Best pho spot in all largo area, I’ve been to many in st Pete and Tampa however this place is very clean, has great fresh flavor and the staff is friendly and educated. Sometimes the waiters are in a rush but it’s okay bc I never had any issues with my food overall.“
“Do not judge a book by its cover. The interior is neat and quiet. The service is awesome and the food is delicious. Will definitely go back.Dietary restrictions: I chose the duck dish. Which had a lot of veggies and a good size portion of jasmine rice.Kid-friendliness: They have kids menu.“
“Best sushi I have found in the area. He had several fancy rolls but the real genius shines in his preparation of the nigiri. He uses seasonal and often times local fish with perfect accompaniments to highlight the fish. Highly recommend the omakase or anything on the special fish of the day menu.“
“Decided to check out Nomi Nori on a Saturday night and I was blown away. The sushi… 10/10. Fresh. Flavorful. Fantastic.Our waitress, Daniela, was absolutely on top of it all night. She went above and beyond to accommodate our table. She was attentive, knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. The service was 10/10.. hands down.We asked for a few drink recommendations based on the menu and Moses the bartender took some time to figure out exactly what we were feeling. Next thing I know, this mans slinging absolute fire like Brady slinging 1st downs in the 4th quarter of the Patriots Falcons 17’ Super Bowl. Drinks were 10/10.If you’re in the are looking for a great food, great drinks, and excellent service. Make sure you check this place out!“
“I really like this place. It is sitting in a strip mall and it doesn't look like much from the outside however, from the inside it is very nice . The sushi is great. The service is great. However, the only bad drawback is. It is a little loud specially, for someone who is hard of hearing.“
“Sake selection is was excellent and unusual. The fish was fresh, rolls a decent size, decent price, and the staff were kind and attentive.Look past the fact that it’s in a strip mall, because this place can compete with any sushi place around.“
“Absolute hidden gem! Have eaten here several times and everything is just amazing. Staff is friendly, food comes out hot and fresh and prices are reasonable. My husband orders the pad kee mao and eats the whole dish every time, which their servings are rather large! I just get the chicken fried rice and it is delicious! All the apps we have had are tasty as well! 10/10 recommend!!“
“Ordered take out red curry chicken, spice was good, portion was just right, but I will order extra rice next time. Came with a side spring roll and fried wonton which was a nice surprise! Parking was tough, but it's at the beach, so that's to be expected. Order was ready and friendly with easy in and out pickup.“
“We decided since we had some friends along to try the at the table grilling. It is a lot of fun and the food was very good. We ordered an angry tuna sushi roll as well, but would have had plenty of food without it. The grilling combo we got was for four people and came with miso soup and ginger salad for everyone and then a tempura shrimp appetizer. It came with 4 different meats bone in short ribs, spicy pork, beef bulgogi, and chicken. Along with 2 sets of ban chans the little pickled accompaniments and sauces and bowls of white rice. They have beer and a nice selection of Saki and Soju also. The service was quick and friendly, we went early on Saturday evening. They also have plenty of other delicious food options besides the table grilling, if playing with your food is not your deal.“
“If you love excellent and fresh sushi, and your main concern is not ambience, this place is for you. They have such a variety of sushi selection and boba tea that it took me a while to go over the menu to decide what to order.The only thing I would change is the service hours. If a business is listed open until 8 pm, customers are expected to be served at least until 15-30 minutes before the closing time.You can still order take out, but you will not be served in the restaurant. I can see why it has caused frustration for some.Overall I totally recommend this authentic sushi place. Just be there early, before 7 pm, or order a take out.“
“Love the variety of all the large, fresh cut steamed veggies hiding under all that beautiful chicken and AMAZING sauce. The crispy Duck was also great. Soup and salad yum! Service - very fast, friendly and helpful. We will be back to try more soon.“
“Amazing food! My family loves thai food and we enjoyed everything, so delicious.Very kid friendly and quick service.Kid-friendliness: They were so nice to the kids and even gave them free iced tea and rice, they did not have to but it was sooo nice of them. Love it, will be back.“
“Quaint. Good food. Younger servers very attentive. On top of all the nicety and needs. Some of the older servers rushed and didn’t listen to what was being ordered. Rushed us as we went around.Parking: It’s near a shopping center.Kid-friendliness: Lots of options“
“So I’ve never had the luxury of dining in at Poke Island, but I’ve ordered their poke bowl through Uber Eats at least 20 times. Every. Single. Order. I’ve had from Poke Island was delicious and perfect! Great quality of fish, super fresh ingredients, made to perfection. If you’re looking for the best poke in St. Pete, look no further because you’ve found it here!! 10 out of 5 stars!!!!!“
“Absolutely amazing experience at SushuTu I highly recommend coming here. If you want to eat sushi that taste like it's been made with pure love this is the place to be . Exceptional hospitality to top off the glorious sushi . Check them out“
“I highly recommend this place for any occasion. It's our new special place. Kayco is the very best server, young and wonderfully interacts with the guests she serves, making it a fun evening. The manager Chellay, is a gift to the restaurant business in these times. Sometimes things happen and before they do, she comes around and introduces herself and when she says "if ANYTHING is wrong, you let me know," she really meant it. Something did happen out of anyone's control, and she made it more than right, and added more fun to the situation. They do care about your experience here. One of the few restaurants left. WE LOVE SEAWEED!Parking: They are so busy, of course parking is an issue. Not their fault. You can use the bank next door on the weekends!“
“Absolutely amazing food and atmosphere! The rolls were fresh and beautiful and I recommend the wagyu appetizer as well. Absolutely coming back!Wheelchair accessibility: Small step outside to get in. Don't doors open on both sides and lower tables with individual chairs“
“The service here was amazing. One of the best sushi places in the St Pete/Tampa area. The taste of the maki rolls here are delicious. I have been looking for a sushi place to go to and I have now found my new favorite place to get my sushi fix from now on! I highly recommend everyone to try this place!“
“The food is delicious! The best Tom kha soup that I had. My family and I've been here a few time already and everything we've tried is delicious. The Thai tea is delicious too. The service is excellent. Pam is great and a very sweet lady. Overall this is hands down the best Thai restaurant in my opinion.“
“I went last night and I have to say I have never had such fresh sushi before in all my travels. Everything was delicious for the delicious crab appetizer , the quality of fish, to the crème brule martini. Also one of the best expresso martinis I’ve had too! My mom’s hard to please and she was a huge fan.Parking: Parked right outside very easily“
“Waitresses are so kind. They were out of a certain dish but quickly offered replacement meals. I loved how attentive they were. There was a difficult customer who was giving a hard time to a waitress, and she handed the customer with such grace. Give that waitress a raise! I will be back. The hilarious review left by R. Thakkar is the angry customer in question that stormed out without paying; enjoy her one star review for reference. Love this restaurant, and the staff. Good job all around.“
“Had to leave another review because we came back here a couple weeks ago and this place was a lot better than the first time we came. The fish was great tasting and fresh and I loved the roll I ordered. I think it was the muscle man roll ... it was a deep fried roll with salmon and yellowtail. We also tried the beef spicy basil noodles and they were sooooo tasty. We did not re order the pad Thai because of our last experience , but I wonder now if it has been improved.“
“Don’t let the run down strip mall scare you…. I can only tell ya about Hibachi and I’d tell ya to not hesitate! They got that down, chefs are very personable, quality of food was good, salads were better than portions are ridiculously big! Now from someone that’s been to hibachis everywhere across the USA I’m gonna give ya a few pointers that you can implement moving forward. 1. When the entire table requests no onions that mean no onions PERIOD. That doesn’t mean no onions in food but it’s ok to bring out the onion choo choo train (putting onion juice on the grill before you cook the meat). 2. Never just hand the guests to go boxes and a bag and expect them to pack up their own take homes. They are paying for the experience of eating out so don’t be lazy and box up your guests leftovers especially since it’s the last impression you leave the guest with. You can do everything right and then botch the ending and that one thing is all they remember. 3. I think I would train the chefs to ask a head a time how the table wants their meal seasoned not everyone will be keen on heavy garlic or butter and it could very well ruin someone meal. 4. Now this one happen to me and personally I don’t care but for future guest I would handle your birthday policy a hell of a lot different ESPECIALLY since your a Habachi place (lots of birthdays) If someone comes in with a birthday simply handle the rules up front! Say “Great, as long as today is your birthday it’s on us or we take 20 bucks off”. No need to try and be sneaky and interrogate during the meal it’s not cool to do. It is perfectly fine if your rules say only on the actual birth date. Now here’s a golden goose tip for you to get more reviews (yes, you need more reviews) and implement this starting TOMORROW! Hibachi diners only: Give a $20 dollar credit off entire bill on next visit (add in rules) - Minimum Order Value - Must show Google Review from first visit. Now you get a repeat customer and a much needed review. Also run a local Facebook no need to let Kobe take all the customers because honestly your food was better and f*ck over price chains!“
“We really enjoyed this spot! Highly recommend going during happy hour 5-6pm. They have quite a few nice options for rolls and apps. The shrimp scampi and rolls were ordered were delicious. The pork dumplings also very good. We ordered two noodle bowls and kids ramen. We enjoyed all of it!“
“I used to come to this sushi restaurant often many years ago, but I'm sad to say I haven't been here in a hot minute with all the new sushi places opening :(. Thankfully, my niece was craving sushi and picked Ichiban so I was excited to try them out after all these years. They are currently only open for take out. We placed our order in by phone and picked up shortly after. Updated menu is online. We ordered the SHRIMP VOLCANO, GATOR ROLL, and TUNA TORNADO. My niece is normally a volcano lover, but this time she fell in love with the GATOR ROLL. It was saucy and generously covered with krab sticks. We will definitely be ordering that roll again. The other rolls were also good -- rolled tightly and just the right amount of rice. I also ordered tuna nigiri and was happy that it was good quality and fresh tasting. Will have to order again to try out some of their newer rolls. Definitely recommend trying them out.“
“The quality of food is excellent. Staff is exceptionally friendly and accommodating. Special recognition for Kelly and Eric for breakfast service, and most especially Lori for dinner service. Lori and the kitchen staff accommodated us at closing time on our 1st night, provided suggestions for our trips to the ballpark and the surrounding area, and provide fantastic service at dinner on our last night!“

“We were there Saturday night and of course we requested Chuck, even though there was a little wait, Chuck did not disappoint! Our food was delicious, jokes were amazing, and everything he does is just great. Looking forward to coming in again real soon. The service was great as well, our server was very attentive and met all of our needs! This visit was one of our best! Can't wait to dig in to my leftovers today!“
“I've been here a few times now an every time I come here their sushi is awesome! Waitress I had today was great. The place wasn't noisy at all. Great place for Sushi. I've had some sushi that us just so so an that's not the case here! Enjoy because I do!“
“Pretty Good We’ve been here for to-go orders in the past. I have lower expectations for to-go since the food is never as hot and fresh as at the restaurant. This time we ate in the restaurant. The restaurant is clean and bright and the service is good. We started with the Bao Bun sampler which was delicious. We moved on to the appetizer sampler. The chicken wings and spring rolls were pretty good. The shrimp and Crab Rangoon were only OK and I wouldn’t get them again. Moving on, the Spot Special Banh Mi was very good. The Eye Round Pho was only OK and had a thin flavor. The Chicken Stir Fry with Vegetables was pretty good with a nice flavor, but the chicken had an overly-tenderized and spongy consistency. So, it was hit and miss. I would go back for the Bao Buns and the Banh Mi.“
“Their food is amazing and their staff are excellent! We had a party of 5 and they gave us an extra spring roll because there were only 4. Not only did they do that but they accidentally gave us an extra plate of fried tofu and decided to let us keep it as well as take it off our bill!“
“The Pad Thai is the best anywhere I've been, sweet and succulent. Chicken Panang Curry and the bento boxes are delish, too, making the choice hard. The ethnic decor and friendly service are wonderful, but it's the flavors that keep us coming back, year after year. Enjoy!“
“I love this place for lunch! Vegetarian here, the rolls are always impressive, the veg habachi is amazing, and I tried the pizza yesterday. Pizza is the best and now my favorite place for pizza. (This is two restaurants in one large building, 2 menus, you can order off of either one. The building is a large (high ceiling-like First Watch) so it can easily get loud when the high tops are filled and they are drinking LOL.“

“I was so impressed with my experience, I had to share! I booked an event for a Friday evening, which was held in their sports bar. Very grateful for Tina & her staff for effortlessly putting everything together, which worked out perfectly! The food, service & space were on par & totally exceeded my expectations. Thank you so much!!“
“So I order to go from them once in a whileEach time I order they call my cell from the street to co.e and take the food.... for some reason they don't come to the front door. I also noticed that each time I come outside they on the phone probably making sure nothing happens to them so they want to leave the phone on??Anyway the food is usually ok bu my last order it was a mess . The veggie lo main looked like they just throw it in the box and I ordered a large meal. Before I used to get more and split it but this time I think it was small.The sushi is ok but no matter how many different sushi you order they put them all in the same box!!!“
“2024-03-17I visited this restaurant for the second time and ordered vegetarian sushi and Pad Thai. The food was delicious, especially the Pad Thai, which I enjoyed a lot. The service was excellent and very fast. Overall, I had a tremendous experience at this restaurant.2024-03-02Nori Thai is a Thai restaurant that offers a wide variety of Thai and Asian foods, including an extensive sushi selection. The service is fast, and they have an excellent selection of vegetarian options. The portions are generous, and the fish dish is noteworthy for its size and taste. However, the vegetarian curry I ordered was a bit hard, and I would have preferred it to be more tender. The restaurant also provides cocktails and drinks. I recommend this restaurant for its delicious food.Vegetarian options: I'm vegetarian, and I found an extensive selection of vegetarian options.“
“I order here off Doordash ALL the time! They offer so many deals on doordash, like happy hour, 15% off or a free item with a certain purchase amount. So I feel like they're super fairly priced. PLUSSSSS they are SOOOOOO good. Especially their Pad Thai, I normally get their sushi, but today I ordered their Pad Thai & it was phenomenal. I'll definitely have to come check them out in person soon! ❤️?“
“AMAZING food! This place was right by our Air BNB and I’m surprised it wasn’t on their recommendations list (I’ll be sure to encourage them to update that!)Great chicken fried rice, and we had like 3 different rolls all of which were exception! Can never go wrong with crab ragoons and theirs were awesome! Thanks Jimmy, def coming back when I’m in the area again!“
