    Went here on a date night. It's delicious. The fish is fresh and the Saka cheap and good. Which makes for a great evening. They don't put a TON of sauce on the sushi been though some of the menu pictures have everything heavily sauced. So you actually can taste all the unique flavors in each roll. Service was also on point even with our waitress was slammed. We never really felt ignored. She answered our questions, kept our drinks topped off, and quickly asked more knowledgeable people if she didn't know. We only went for sushi, so I cannot speak for other things in the menu yet. The Wood's roll, pictured, was amazing. I look forward to visiting again.

    4.5 stars. Dine in is great. Takeout is ok, wouldn't opt for this though. A bit expensive depending what you get. Service is great & sake is reasonably priced. Sushi is pretty good all things considered. Traditional rolls are good. Recently tried a Philly roll and it had krab in it, which is a miss for me but I like they change it up. Their fried mackerel is also consistent, its one my comfort meals but I never want to cook it at home. Korean BBQ: pretty happy to have a spot in ABQ with K-BBQ. It's not all you can eat but you can still cook for yourself. It's a bit expensive, but hey I'm happy to see this. Kimchi-jjigae isn't all that spicy, but I'd still recommend it to people that haven't tried it. Soju options can be limited.

    This restaurant used to be named Sushi & Sake on the east side but it moved to Nob Hill (a grittier but much trendier location) and is now called, simply, Korean BBQ House. I love their specialty rolls, of which they have many. In particular, I recommend trying the Orange Ball, Sushi Station, and Nob Hill roll. What makes this restaurant one of my local favorites is the fact that they have both great sushi rolls and Korean BBQ - and they do both well. The owner works her tail off every day and I have no idea how she knows so many recipies for such a broad variety of food. The decor is pretty authentic, which is the humble opinion of someone who lived in Los Angeles for most of his life and has had a lot of experience in all of the legendary Korean BBQ restaurants that defined the niche cuisine in its culinary mecca. The first time I walked in, I was impressed that this existed in ABQ. The city could do a better job with improving Nob Hill, but that has nothing to do with Korean BBQ House. I like this location for this restaurant, as it is an exciting addition to the variety of restaurants that make Nob Hill so fun. I know the owner cannot run this business alone forever, but until things change (I hope it remains a "home-cooked meal" type of restaurant for many years to come), I highly recommend you stop by and give it a try. Just be patient during peak hours. No one wants to work anymore, and I can tell the owner is doing her best. Every night she is in the kitchen cooking these delicious meals for us, and I for one am grateful for this gem of a restaurant in Duke City.

    I ordered Sushi from here through doordash, when i got my order i can immediately smell the fish like from a fish tank , and i had one bite and couldn’t finish. i don’t know if the seafood used was old, rotten or what but this place definitely needs to be checked!

    I love the sushi here. I usually get the Dragon Roll or Rainbow roll, both are stellar. Fish is fresh and the service is amazing. We always get extra lime when asked and it's overall a great experience. My husband gets the chicken katsu and it has never disappointed!

    Had to have at least two orders of grill meat to be able to sit at the grill table. The marinated meat were rather too sweet for my taste. Also had to ask for meat sauce and pay for the lettuce, which in NYC or NJ Korean BBQ restaurant, are included. The side dishes were ok. Overall , everything is average. Nothing to get excited about.

    This place has a huge menu of items to choose from. First time I've ever been here and the sushi was okay. No complaints wasn't the best sushi I ever had but pretty good The prices were a little more expensive than some of the other places I've gone to in the past. there's a sign on the door that says they're moving to Central avenue in the near future FYI.

    This was my boyfriend and I's, first time having Koren BBQ, and we had a blast! The food was delicious, service was immaculate, and the prices were fair. The atmosphere made me feel as if it was only my boyfriend and I there. We sat side by side in a booth. The booth was very cushiony, felt like I was at home on the couch. Thank you Sushi & Sake for a great Valentine's dinner, made some core memories tonight 💕

    Love this place. 10/10 recommend try the bimibap bowls, bulgulgi bento box or better yet cook in front of yourself. Also get the Korean radish or pickled radish it's seriously addicting.

    This was our favorite sushi restaurant in Albuquerque up until about 10 minutes ago. We placed a to go order for pick up via DoorDash, over $85 worth of food. When my wife got to the restaurant to pick up the order, they gave her a completely different order. When my wife let them know, they told her that they gave her order to a delivery driver. We don't live within range for delivery and we double checked that it was in fact set to pick up. Mistakes are made and that's fine. But what isn't fine is that the manager and owner not wanting to take any responsibility for the mistake and not wanting to do anything to make it right. They were rude to my wife who left in tears out of frustration. So I called the restaurant and got the same treatment. They are completely unwilling to try to provide a resolution, unwilling to take responsibility and we're very rude. The owner hung up on me. We have been going to Sushi and Sake for years, since the original location, and both newer locations. But after the treatment from them tonight, we will not step foot there again.

    Super fun experience. You have to purchase 2 types of meat if you want to sit at the grill top, but just going for the sushi was amazing too. Friendly staff, large portions!

  • 5/5 Victoria 1 year ago on Google
    Staff was very nice and very attentive. The food was so good, I was craving sushi and I left a clean plate. Good atmosphere too, light music in the background and it wasn’t too loud.

    The Korean BBQ table wasn't hot enough after a while so the pork ended up staying raw. The food was average at best for how much you had to pay. It gave me and my friend food poisoning too. If you value your health don't ever go there.

    My boyfriend and I like this place! His favorite dishes: tonkatsu (breaded pork cutlet), spicy tuna roll and bibimbup. Mine - ika surume (hard to find at other Asian places!) grilled whole squid 🦑😻

    First time at this new location. Sushi was good but our favorite were the green muscles. The staff was also friendly.

    First time! We went for Korean BBQ. Price was decent. We will definitely be back again! We ordered extra lettuce for our preference
