We had a group of seven of us with a reservation for 6p and had our choice of two seating options. We went with a round table, which had a lazy susan in the middle. It made it fun to turn it and to share items or to easily get the soy sauce. Service was done well by the gal assigned to us. Those who ordered sushi were very pleased. I ordered the pad thai and it was just okay. We were surprised they had TVs playing football. The vibe that night was like being at a sushi sports bar. Kinda odd, but overall a good spot to gather and eat.

Food is AMAZING! Literally every time we come here it's so fresh. Sushi is a 10/10 the general tso is really good, same with the curry! You can't go wrong with anything.

We've patronized this establishment several times and have been very happy with the food and service! Our server, Mason, has done an excellent job each time we've been there. He's happy and very efficient at his job. We enjoyed 4 entrees. Kung Pao chicken, Happy Family, Szechaun chicken, and the Orange chicken. Also added egg rolls and fried rice. EVERYTHING was delicious and cooked to perfection! Kudos to the entire staff at Zushi! We WILL be back!

Have gone here for years love sunny beaches roll sweet and sour chicken, veggies fried rice and spicy edamame. Great cocktail s and good pour with wine. Sit at the bar and watch your favorite sports. They also offer teppanyaki and have a wonderful outdoor patio for our cooler weather.

Teppanyaki is always fun and reasonably priced for great food cooked right in front of you. Chefs are talented

Most of the time 4.5 stars occasionally 3 stars. Not totally consistent here but when they are on they are really on which is most of the time. Staff is awesome during the day. Never been during dinner time. Not the most innovative rolls but well made and wasabi and ginger are on point. My favorites here are the Rainbow Roll (pic) Salmon Nigiri (also in pic) and the Las Vegas Roll.
