My wife and I come here atleast 10 times a month. The prices are perfect for a budget and the taste and quality exceeds expectations. From afar, the place doesn’t seem appealing. But please do not let looks fool you. Kim, the owner, is amazing. He makes us ice water as soon as he sees us coming to his counter. Today he gave us free suckers. We have never had a wrong or cold order come out to us. Please give this place a chance. Also, crab puffs are soooo good.

I never thought a food court food stop could be so good. Even the low price makes it seem sketchy but the food is actually incredible. The chicken katsu is by far my favorite but their teriaki chicken and yes even sushi is wonderful. Its worth going out of the way to park at the mall, head indoors and find the place. Dont let the location fool you!

Not the most amazing sushi, but it definitely worked for my sushi craving!(It is mall food after all). At $ 5 for 2 trays, you can’t beat that! The staff was very friendly and service was quick.

What the hell, Unilocal?I am going to assume that all the positive reviews weren’t from people who had the sushi. They were out of eel and I think the filling I got was more Miracle Whip than crab. It left a nasty, sweet aftertaste. This place is located in the extremely slummy MetroCenter Mall food court, so don’t expect ambiance.

Would have given four stars BUT cashier and I couldn’t understand each other. Food arrived with no drink… should have checked receipt. No worry! But the Red Dragon sushi roll was spicy and tasty!

For a small place in a mall we were pleasantly surprised and left with a smile on our face. The owner was pleasant, made us feel welcomed and offered us suggestions. We enjoyed a feast, tried some very filling dishes and will definitely be back for more. Great job in service and customer satisfaction!

I had very high hopes based on all the reviews. The place was busy, the prices were good, and the service was very good. The food was pretty much average. Average mall sushi. Average spring rolls. Somewhat less than average shrimp tempura. I really wanted to like it more. I had the cream cheese salmon roll and it was pretty bland. The rice seemed overly sweet and the roll fell apart completely. It’s okay for a mall meal if there is nothing else you’re in love with, but I would definitely not call it four or five stars. Maybe 3.5 because they are so friendly. I’m actually sad about it because for some reason, I want them to do well.

Look, I am by no means a sushi connoisseur, but I was blown away by this little restaurant nestled inside the food court of the mall. At first I was trying to decide what to eat as I glanced around the food court. I quickly realized that Number1 Sushi garnered the most customers and I was immediately drawn to it. While waiting in line and deciding what to order, I saw a standard menu and also there were many photos of dishes. The gentleman behind the register was friendly and offered fast service. For under $ 5 I got myself a tray of California rolls and a canned soda. I was astounded. The sushi was very good and was adorned with soy sauce, a healthy portion of wasabi, slices of ginger, and a fortune cookie. For a quick healthy bite, nothing beats this hidden gem.

Cheap sushi. Good sized, especially considering the price. The raw rolls tasted decent, although heavily seasoned. Leaves one to wonder why. Rice was almost dessert level sweet. I’ve never had to throw out sushi until this place. Ate a few pieces of my rolls and just couldn’t continue. Giving them a second star due to the cheap prices. If you want cheap sushi and aren’t picky about the quality, then give it a whirl… otherwise, I wouldn’t bother.

Cute little spot. Always someone waiting in line. Cheap sushi quick and actually pretty good. They also have some traditional Japanese try it out!

Great value and good freshness. $ 13.00 out the door with a tip. 8 piece salmon/tuna roll and a good sized Teri Bowl with veggies; and a large can of green tea. I dinged it a star because it is located in a mall food court. Who goes to the Mall anymore?

Great place for quality sushi at an excellent price. I only come for the prepared sushi, so I cannot speak about their other cooked/fried items. My fiancé and I split three rolls and a large soda today for under $ 15. We were very happy campers. Last time we went before today, the owner gave us free eggrolls – talk about great customer service! If you want sushi on the cheap, give this place a try.

Good sushi GREAT pricing. Yeah it seem weird at first getting sushi from the food court at the mall but man was I surprised. Prices make everything taste better knowing you’re not spending ridiculous money. Stop by and find out for yourself

Awesome food, awesome service and dirt cheap. I had chicken teriyaki and he threw in egg rolls for free. Food took less than 3 minutes and was ready to go with all accompaniments nicely laid out for me. Really fantastic.

This place is amazing. It’s probably the best sushi place I’ve been to. The price is so cheap, which is how Asian food should be. You also get so much bang for your buck. For $ 5, you get 2 boxes(20 huge pieces) of sushi. I’m a huge sushi lover who can’t get enough, but that fills me up. I wish they had more locations or were closer to me because I’ll live there. I love this place that much :)

Okay, this is amazing. We got a large chicken katsu and 2 boxes of sushi for $ 10. Like some reviewers said, this is mall sushi, so it’s not the best in the world. However, it is probably the best mall sushi I’ve ever had. Definitely worth $ 2.50. The Katsu, on the other hand, was amazing! Even compared to high end Japanese restaurants that charge $ 12+ for a plate. Here it costs $ 2.88 for a small(regular restaurant size) or $ 4.88 for a large(double the normal size). The staff was very pleasant and the food was well worth the cheap price!

Okay keep in mind this 5 star rating is for mall sushi. It in no way compares to a fancy sushi place. Okay first: location. It is in the food court of Metrocenter mall. Metrocenter mall honestly is a pretty dead mall. But this sushi place is amazing. They have several different sushi varieties, though most are different versions of the Cali roll. I have been here a handful of times, and I almost always get the 2 for 5. You get two boxes of sushi for $ 5. 2 boxes is definitely enough to fill you from starving to content. Well at least me… and I eat a lot of sushi. They are almost all Cali rolls, yesterday I got a box with 6 Cali and 2 shrimp nigiri, and a box that had tempura on top… think it was half spicy shrimp half Cali. The quality is good, I have also had their rainbow rolls before, and the quality of fish is decent. Another thing that I have gotten from the place frequently in the past is the chicken teriyaki. $ 2 gets you a huge box full of white rice and lots of chicken. It is definitely yummy, and a great place to get a cheap lunch. The owner guy is super nice too, definitely give it a try!

Okay so I was REALLY hesitant about this place. Like sushi inside the mall? The thought made me cringe, but it was the only sushi place around my work and I was STARVING. So, I gave it a shot. The chicken katsu was superb, and the spicy tuna rolls were to die for! Aside from the surprisingly excellent food, the prices were soooooooooooooooooooo cheap! I paid $ 10 for the small chicken katsu(which I didn’t even come close to finishing) & the sushi rolls(which I also had surplus of). In summary, I think this is going to be my new lunch joint! I just hope they can survive in this economy especially since they’re located in a dying mall. Oh, well, they have my money!!! Give this place a shot!
