Reviews of Sun Sushi (Catering)

Andrew Dawe

Ordered $65 worth of sushi through skip the dishes on Nov 14 2020. After the food arrived I noticed there was no chop sticks included. I called in and was told that they aren't automatically included in orders in order to save of waste. I figured, ok fair enough. Strange, but I can manage. As I opened up the order more I realized that there also wasn't any wasabi or ginger included. I called Sun Sushi and the best they could do was apologize. All Sun Sushi was willing to do was recommend that I call Skip the Dishes even though they had nothing to do with my order. Not impressed. Sushi was mediocre at best and the service is definitely sub standard. Would not recommend. Also, if not including chop sticks automatically is done in an effort to prevent waste then why include 10 packs of soy sauce? One of the most common condiments in everyone's fridge is.... SOY SAUCE! *eye roll* & *unimpressed clap*. Always had better luck using Sushi Island. Give them a try!

Great sushi

HANDS DOWN! The BEST Sushi place I've ever been to. I was standing outside looking at the menu and one of the waitstaff beckoned me inside, to "look at the menu with pictures." Which was the best decision I ever had made. Sitting down inside, we were quickly brought menus and our waiter was the nicest person ever. They even allowed me to look at the bottle of sake and confirm. (The sake was some of the best stuff I've had too.) Our mains were amazing, the atmosphere was amazing, the BEST ♡. decor was on point and the staff were the nicest people. Ive ever met.. they even out on a song I requested. If you're looking for a sushi place in downtown close to the Hilton or the Sheraton GO HERE! YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!

Kathy McKay

We had the tempura lunch special. Both of us enjoyed the meal and we had good service.

Larissa Hill

Great food, friendly service, lots of menu options!

Jill Power

Best sushi in the city, reasonable prices and great service! Never disappoints.

Gabriela Logan

Tasty sushi though fish isn't the best quality, but friendly service, and decent prices. And they have all you can eat lunch!

Glorious Drakehide

Best spicy mushroom rolls.

Dominic Arcard

Great sushi, sometimes they don't bring everything you order for the all you can eat but great restaurant.

Lawn Lord

Great sushi with plenty of options. Also houses a Bubble tea location which serves plenty of great desserts!

Zack Glabb

Great sushi

Brianna Park

Servers were very nice and professional, food was delicious. However, the wait time was astronomical. I had a reservation placed ahead of time for my group on a Thursday. We arrived at 6:30 and there were two other couples in the restaurant. It was not busy on the inside however we waited 2 hours for our food to be brought to us. While waiting we witnessed over 8 (or more!) skip the dishes/door dash drivers come in and receive take out orders. If we knew it was quicker to just sit at home and order we would have just done that. It made several of the party members upset as we felt like we were pushed to the back and ignored over the skip orders.

Kathryn White

Average fish quality and somewhat of a limited "speciality" roll menu. Probably better off not going with the all you can eat special unless you're feeling extra hungry due to its expensive price.

Thomas Erskine

very good sushi but service couldn't keep up with the crowd

Jennifer Grant

It's not the best sushi. But it is still quite good and very satisfying if you're craving sushi (which happens me a lot). It's mid range price for sushi (low price range being ASA sushi, mid-high Sushi island, high being Basho). Not fast or slow service. But they have cheap coronas, all you can eat, and serve miso soup while you wait for your items. The veggie tempura is amazing. The house salad is always a good choice- it's quite dense, and the dressing is addictive. Also the salad roll and spicy broccoli is to die for. ???????????? craving it now..

Chris Lansdell

Delicious food, reasonable service.

larrain lsd

Decent sushi restaurant. Go for the buffet!

E B

One of my favorite sushi places! I always come here when I am in St. John's. All you can eat has a lot to choose from, fast service and friendly staff. Delicious! The virgin sunshine roll is the best :)

It was a terrible terrible experience in this restaurant. If the waitress can pay more attention to buffet customers instead of chatting all the time, it would be better. The sushi bar gave me wrong things everytime. The salmon sashimi is extremely tiny, and the sushi rolls are hard to chew. I used two hours to wait the food that was supposed to be finished in an hour. At 8:13 pm, I was told that the last call is 8:15 pm, how you can push customers to order the food in 2 minutes? There were three waitresses, they could not handle only four tables. I can't believe that you guys have different attitude to different customers. This is my first time to eat here and it's the last time.

Tiffany Dawson

From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, the service was kind, attentive and welcoming. We were treated as guests with genuine kindness and that in itself is worth the 5 stars. The food was served in a timely manner and everything was delicious. In visiting St. John’s, this is the most warm service we’ve had. Definitely recommend this lovely little spot if you love sushi!

Jane Rideout

Duckworth roll is UNREAL

Gita Klaus

Food is ok and it's the 3rd time I've been there that they don't have saki.

Simon Blair

The food is very good, the portions are appropriate, it's filling, and a pleasant environment. It always feels well worth your money to eat there. The downtown sun sushi however, no longer serves all you can eat lunch, so keep that in mind when choosing a sun sushi establishment to eat at.

Trudy Goold

Good food, reasonable service, good use of space, and I love their weekday lunch All-You-Can-Eat.

Matthew Emery

Excellent chicken teriyaki. Would come back.

AmberMoon

Love this place! Yummm

Allan Duke

Best Sushi in town! Great staff too! :)

Michael Wozney

Our go to for lunch downtown. Never disappointed and service is always friendly

Jan Willem

Letting us order an 'all you van eat' diner, and after 20 minutes telling it's time for the last order. Should have told us this before ordering. A la carte was still possible. And should have warned us that the portions were small. Now we payed full price for just a little food! Taste was ok

Jessica Wilkins

Amazing all you can eat selection

Taimaz Bahadory

Loved the food. I tried the "Beef" something, and it was awesome. The soup and salad were different too. They worth their price.

Piotr Angiel

Very nice sushi place, great food!

Jeet Jani

Usually here once every other week for the last two years. Great spot, staff are courtious. Good so you can eat but also awesome a la carte if you choose that.

Michael Thomas Smith

So good. Recently relocated from Toronto and this spot was on par if not better. The Rolls are amazing, happy I live close by!

Kazeem ADEFEMI

The sushi is good, not really a 5 star, especially compared to other sushi places I've been, but not bad. I did feel like they didn't have too many options, though. Nonetheless, good service, nice place to eat and they had bubble tea

Ashley Forward

Excellent buffet

L. G. Bloomquist

Top notch sushi.

Arjan Jianfar

good food nice service

Wualla “Wualla”

Best Sushi in town

Soliman A.

Best Sushi in St. John's hands up.

Adam Pike

Went for lunch buffet. Similar pricing to competition at $17.99/person. Decent selection. Excellent vegetable Maki, but didn't really enjoy the chicken-fried rice.

Dong Kim

Miso soup and Hirashi Wakame is ok but not a good idea to order Short rib Lunch combo which has so much(more than 50%) fat on the rib.

Samantha Clarke

Normally go for the all you can eat, be wary about ordering too much, you pay extra for each roll you don't finish! Staff are friendly, can be a bit slow. Food is good though!

claire castro

Reasonable price. Good food. Excellent service

shel3xxx

Best spicy tuna rolls ever!!!

Jim Jubabir

The food is absolutely amazing! But the only concern is the service. It is not upto the mark at all compared to their other location. Once they fix their services, the place will be able to attract more people in!

Jasenko Safic

Its passable all you can eat.

Kate Bisnaire

Good quality sushi. Their all you can eat is worth it.

Justin Frampton

Delicious sushi! A little slow on service.

Heather Adey

Amazing! So tasty!

Ryan Penney

All you can eat! Best in town!!

noah gallant

The all you can eat just keeps getting more and more expensive every time I go.

Liam Waghorn

Great spot great food, best spot to sit is if you shoot far right when you walk in the door. The heater keeps your legs nice and toasty.

Nayanajith Udara

Great sushi

Dominic O'Driscoll

Went here for a birthday dinner and everything was delicious. Reasonably priced for nice sushi downtown.

Danielle Foley

Delicious sushi at a very adorable price.

Josh Gummett

Quite good sushi, with AMAZING katsu. Very fresh fish with excellent selection.

The duckworth roll was amazing, never had something like it

Robert Young

I love Sun Sushi, I always have"all you can eat" they have a huge variety. Always a good feed!

Sheldon Huelin

Good Sushi, ok service, poor quantities, and a bit pricey; they charge extra for green tea where most Sushi places offer it for free.

Darien Rowsell

Awesome Sushi and great service!

Todd Sharpe

It has a very warm and inviting atmosphere . It has a great selection. The food is fresh and served promptly.The space is very clean and the service is excellent.

Darryl Hollett

Great food

CJ Abbott (ButtonCheck)

Its right you pay for your food not your service, but I cant wait to go back. What the young servers lack in service is made up in great quality sushi. We had some Sashimi and it was wonderful.

Trevor Taylor

St. John's oldest sushi restaurant - offers great selections and an all you can eat menu

Brandon Robinson

Some of the best sushi in the city. Also a great selection of well executed and exciting Japanese dishes.

Brent Peiser

(Translated) Ehhhh (Original) Ehhhh

Royden Oldford

Really enjoyed our meal there. We recently moved back from Vancouver BC, where sushi is on every corner just about. This was a good little spot for sure.

Jayson Beaster-Jones

Very good sushi, good service, reasonably priced.

Dylan Thomas

Spicy mushroom is life

Brn Davis

You haven't had Sun Sushi until you've had Sun Sushi on Duckworth

Michelle Skinner

Amazing lunch. Everything was delicious ????

Nicholas Thoms

Duckworth roll all day long!????

Shane Flaherty

Pretty good for the price point. Lunch time ayce is great and their dinner menu has a lot of options done well that you'll miss out on if you only go for the lunch specials, so make sure you hit that up sometime if you tried and like the ayce. I personally like the chef special roll ????

Vaibhav V. Naik

Good food..

Saleh Rogers

They make you pay extra for all you can eat if you don't finish your plate :/ I've never seen such thing in my life...

ryan williams

Great all you can eat lunch

sherry 88

Friendly staff, fast service! I still love sushi Island though!????

Devon Parsons

Amazing sushi!

L.T. Hawkeye

Just awesome, loved the ambience of the decor along with the music and the waitress was very kind and accommodated the request we had

Rob

pretty decent. restaurant was quite warm though

Josh Andrews

Offers All You Can Eat lunch and supper. Wide selection of options on the menu. The price is fair for the quality of food you get, both All You Can Eat and regular meals. Great to go with a group, or on a date.

Lw FF (NerDzzzzz)

A little bit too expensive but the food is good. Try not to order too much in a row cuz last time my friend and I ordered 20 salmon sushis and tuna sushi and more for each and it took us more than half an hour to wait for the food.

Geniene McCarthy

Nice location, good food.

Roxanne Cooper

Amazing sushi. Great deal

Zichen Huang (UnderGunfire)

food is ok but serving is too slow

burst in flames sos

The food was very good and the survers were incredible

Chance Maloney

Amazing food, you won't regret any choice on this menu but the golden California rolls are unreal. If you are on the fence about trying this place just do it, the staff are very helpful and kind with amazing food to boot!

Liam

Pretty good sushi, the buffet is worth it if you're hungry enough!

Mike Nieuwland

Just not very good sushi.

Joshua Morrissey

Good

Chris Carr

Fresh and delicious sushi downtown St. John's. Varied menu with lots of options for everyone. On the expensive side. Wait for take out was on the lengthy side for a half full restaurant (35-40 mins), but there was one chef carefully preparing the order by hand, which I appreciate more than a factory line of guys throwing rolls together at high volume sushi joints.

Lesley Chard

For local mid-range sushi, it's consistent and usually a good eat. The staff here are always super friendly and make you want to come back again.

Mary Bullard

Always fresh fish! Always friendly staff! One of my favorites to visit when in town.

Derrick C.

The sushi here is pretty good. Not really a 5, but not really a 4, more a 4.5 stars to be honest. Great portion sizes, but mainly super fresh ingredients with a great selection of sushi and tempura. The tempura sauce was amazing though, perfect balance full of flavour. Service is excellent, super friendly staff. Restaurant itself is very clean.

Evan Parsons

Amazing food, lovely service. It’s always a great time here.

Ivan Zendel

Great food

Haris Hadzimuratovic

Service was incredible, menu was large, good was delivered quickly, and everyone was very accommodating of our giant stroller and the baby in it. I don't mean to discount the food - I thought it was great - but my sushi standards aren't anything special.

Marc Manning

The food was good, but the service left a lot to be desired.

stephen wheeler

Good food. Very busy. All you can eat is expensive but if you want to try a lot of things it's the way to go

Danielle Browne

Always great

Karen Woolsey

I tried the sushi pizza for the first time, it was great! I had tuna as my topping. Everything we ordered was delicious, and beautifully presented.

Kaveh M

A total blast of great food and robotic kitty service.

Garron Norman

We went for the "All You Can Eat." I have to say, I enjoyed our meal. I have ate at a fair amount of sushi places during my own travels, and Sun Sushi is good if you do not want to spend a lot of money. However, I did feel that the "All You Can Eat" price was a little much for the quality, but the prices for a menu order were reasonable. Sushi Rolls: We had five different rolls, and they were all pretty good. My partner found that some of them were cut a little too thick for her to eat comfortably. I do agree that they were a little too large, but I they did not cause me too much grief. ;) The ingredients were fair and enjoyable. Sashimi: We had Salmon, White Tuna, Tuna, Tuna Tataki. It was all good! I have no complaints here at all. I guess if one were to force me to provide a con, I would say that I wish the Salmon was cut a little thicker (see sushi roll con for irony). Miso Soup: Was good. No real chunks of tofu in it, but it was cheap so what odds. Wontong Soup: Honestly, here is the one draw back, it was the worst Wonton Soup I have ever had. The broth was oily and flavourless. Sesame Balls: They were still very cold in the middle. Service: The service was a little slow, but for a Tuesday night it was pretty busy. So, we should give them a little leeway here. However, they did not give me a second menu to order from and I had to hassle a server for it. They also staggered our meal awkwardly, which meant that some of us were done way before others. Price Point 27.99 for all you can eat. For two of us it was about 64 before a tip. I felt that this was a little pricey for the amount and the quality. Bonus: Many sushi places in St. John's do not offer all you can eat on a Tuesday, but this one does. And, you can always order off of the menu if you wish. I would go back here again for a chill night.

Harry Nguyen

The staff are nice and everything. I’d say the sushi here is the best in town but the wait (for AYCI menu) is usually too fricking long even though there’s almost nobody else in the restaurant. And yes I’m typing this as I’m still waiting for my first order.

jonathan

First time having sushi, was amazing

Lil Dill

My only complaint about this place is how all the warm air gets sucked out when the front door is opened. Awesome food though

Chris Davis

Fantastic food and prices. Service was kinda slow

Vokdor1

For the price point this is a great sushi restaurant with consistent quality of food and service. After many many trips I still have yet to have any bad experience here. That includes the all you can eat menu.

Vlad Imir

Fast service very good sushi

Bret Curtis

Turned away from dining in even with a valid Onatrio Covid vaccine barcode and documents. Their scanner could not valid it but common sense was not considered.

Alan Thygesen

Excellent food....

Derek Mackay

Very good sushi

Ford Adams

Wandering Minstrel

Barry Buckle

Great sushi ...great prices

jonathan hill

Fresh sushi, good prices. Really good value on lunch bento boxes.

supinelemon

Possibly one of the best restaurants in St Johns. Great affordable food, good service, and the sushi is fresh.

col huddy

I had 1 lousy experience there over a year ago, but since then they have really stepped up their game. I have been going a lot in the last 6 months and its been delicious.

Alistair Taylor

Long wait

Adrien Collod

(Translated) Very good. By cons the service was very slow. (Original) Très bon. Par contre le service était très lent.

Nick Angiers

I went here twice during my stay in St. John's. If you're tired of pub food, this is a great option. The rolls and entrees are all delicious, and they have sake (warm or cold).

muhneeb mubarak

Never taste it

Chris R

Always a fan of Sushi ! Great service great food. Yum.

Jolene

Sun Sushi is a great place. We especially love the All You Can Eat Food Buffet. It isn-t a regular buffet as your order your food from a menu and it ia brought to your table. I enjoy that aspect a lot. The service is also great. On weekends it is usually crowded but much less busy on weekdays. I definitely suggest trying this place out.

Brian Burke

Great sushi

Tim Kruger

Excellent as always

Joy Skanes

Great food with excellent service and very affordable prices.

Sarah O

My husband loves dropping in here for bubble tea! The sushi is also great, staff is very friendly

Nate Stone

dope sushi restaurant in a nice location

Kyle Power

Great food and service

Michael Gulliver

Good food menus and service Quick food preparation

Raymond Flaherty

The sushi is good to great. My issues here are with the service. I usually go to the Duckworth location and today will be my last visit there. Exceptionally slow service (I've never had anything close to what I would call fast service, despite the other reviews), cold and at times ignorant staff as well as a ridiculous amount of rice on their rolls. Sun sushi was the king before Sushi Island showed up. But now that they have a lot of competition popping up over town they seem to be losing their way and their service is lagging behind by a large margin. This place use to be my go-to sushi spot. Now it's a spot i'll only drive by on my way to a better place.

Victoria King

Best sushi and bubble tea in town!

Zeus Life

I went for the all you can eat lunch special, it has been a while that I hadn't had sushi and was my first time in NL. Service was excellent and food was delicious.

Tim Gushue

Sushi was great and the staff were friendly

Mátyás Csongor

Lots of special ???? to try out. Good quality food.

Jessica Baldwin

It’s been years since I first had it, but I still grade all spicy tuna to the sun sushi spicy tuna and nothing compares.

L E

Great sushi!

Joanna Gillen Mahoney

Great sushi, nice atmosphere, all-you-can-eat lunch!

Blair Hong

I love it here.

Laura Piercey

My favorite resturant hands down. Love the food and the service! Can't beat it :)

Mervin McDonald

Great sushi at a reasonable price. Very pleasant service. Our go to spot for sushi downtown.

Elisabeth Deblois

All Sun Sushi's are not made alike. The one on Kenmount Rd is great. I ordered what I usually order at that location at the Duckworth location. It was horrible. This is my first time commenting on anything - but the quality was so poor, I needed to say something. Odd that the Kenmount and Duckworth locations have the same menu. They are completely different.

Gord Everett

Very very good food

Gordon Everett

Grand Plc to eat.... Food was amazing... Will be back lots more...

Jon Whalen

yum yum

eric marshall

The food was great, service was extremely slow.

Bev Bro

My favourite sushi in town :) (the spicy broccoli roll is life !!)

Angela Beck

Best sushi in town

Brian Gosse

If you like japanese.is good value.

Leah S.

Service can be subpar but I overlook it for the great food. Best sushi in town for sure - I recommend the spicy tuna roll!

Amy Baker

Friendly service and alright food

R Selvaraj

Great Varieties !!.. Orange Chicken the best

Sean Stafford

Fast service, reasonable price, clean setting... Wish more of their menu items were on the all u can eat menu but overall I was happy with the experience and I am sure we will be returning for another round soon.

Daniel Beaulieu

Service is everything, but NOT here. We decided to order the all you can eat sushi option. The wait was okay(10 minutes) to get our order and getting it out to us (20 minutes).We finished our first round of sushi and was ready for another in 15 minutes. As per instructed, we filled out the sheet of paper and set it aside the edge of the table. 10 minutes passed by, then 20 minutes, then 30, to an HOUR! Nobody and I mean not one soul (out of 3-4 servers) acknowledged us for the ENTIRE HOUR that we were even there until we got fed up of waiting and pay for our bill. They were more than happy to take 79 dollars from us. As a tourist, a 3 seconds interaction that our food is good comes a long way. Hell, a 1 second eye contact to acknowledge that we're there would have been appreciated. Unless....your strategy is wear your customers down by putting them through the same experience as us, so that you save on cost.... you've successfully achieve it. Except you probably just lost 1 or more customers down the road. I hope you guys invest on training your staff on customer service. Otherwise, there would be more negative reviews like this down the road. Good luck.

Helge Roscher-Nielsen

Good sushi, fresh fish and lots of it

Great service and the sushi was delicious!
