👍👍 Great spot off second park. Sushi was ok, not the best in town, but still good. People often mention sushi, service, good, roll, rice,

    I’ve been to this place a few times. One of the first times I visited I was very impressed by the food and the service. The times that followed felt different. The service wasn’t as welcoming. I visited again yesterday for dinner and was so disappointed with what they did. I ordered their veggie rainbow without cream cheese and specified with the waitress that I didn’t want the cream cheese. After waiting for a while another waitress came up to tell me that the chefs had accidentally made the roll with cream cheese on top and asked if I would still want it with the cream cheese, or if I wait another 10 minutes they could make me a new one. I said I was okay waiting because I can’t have lactose. She said okay and after waiting a little longer our rolls came out. Half way into the veggie rainbow I noticed that they had tried hiding the fact that they had scooped the cream cheese off the top of this roll instead of making a new roll. I didn’t finish it because it felt disrespectful. You asked me if I wanted you to tell the chefs that a new one would be better and I said yes. Why ask me that if they weren’t going to make a new one in the first place? I expressed this to her and she didn’t ask if we wanted to leave tip. She apologized, but it seemed forced. Everyone else working also seemed stand off ish, even when we first walked in. This place was great a few months ago but I don’t know what has happened recently. Check this place out at your own risk.

    I would say for an experienced diner this may be the worst sushi ever. The rice was either stale or undercooked, super dense and really too much of it. The flavor was imbalanced. Maybe it is pre-made and stays in the fridge too long so it gets hard. Idk The rice is so important in sushi. The Wasabi wasn't spicy and had a terrible chalky texture. The soy tasted more sweet than salty. All the other ingredients were meh, the amount of rice over-shadowed it while trying to chew down hard rice. And there was nothing exciting about it. I live super close by so it wasn't a delivery issue. I honestly hated every single bite and I wanted to enjoy it. Thats my two cents for whatever it's worth.

    Chucharita Roll is delicious, it's covered by eel sauce wich is flamed before dish serving. Inside of, you can find many ingredients like breaded squid. Taste is fantastic, you'll find a bittersweet flavor. Texture is awesome because roll is soft and creamy on the outside, but inside, roll is crispy (by breaded squid). Place is roomy, and confortable. Prices are high.

    Overated sushi, the rice was like chewing a tasteless bubblegum, if I had to put a price on every roll, I'll be 1,000 cop. Don't come here, you will regret it.

    The worst sushi I had in my life. Very dry and the taste is horrible

  • 4/5 Matthew T. 2 years ago on Google
    Chicken spring rolls were good! Just don't like how all the items on the menu were not accessable on the night I went.

  • 5/5 Diego R. 8 months ago on Google
    Amazing sushi, great variety, a lot of fresh options and top service from our waitress Alejandra! Would recommend this to anyone in the area!

  • 3/5 Sebastian R. 2 years ago on Google
    The sushi flavor was awesome, but we had to wait for more than 40 minutes.

  • 5/5 Chris B. 5 months ago on Google
    I was not expecting to like this place so much because it’s quite touristy, but my meal was so tasty. It was a nice break from local food and the service was great.

    My experience with Sushi in Medillin is limited, but this place would be out of business in a month in the USA. The food is below average. Service was average and the atmosphere was good. I might try it again before I leave, as my local friends want to check it out.

  • 4/5 Amber M. 7 years ago on Google
    Honestly there's no better deal! But one get one on Tuesday is a must and the atmosphere and vibe is amazing! The service was so fast and friendly as well. A little heavy on the rice, but whatever. It's a great switch up from the typical South American rice plates. Try something new!!

    If I focus only in quality, I think this is the best sushi I can get in Medellín. I really like the menu and verity of sushi and other dishes you can have here. Literally, my girlfriend changed to sushi as her favorite food after trying Sushi Light.

  • 5/5 Andres A. 1 year ago on Google
    The line is long on Tuesdays but it is so worth it. Some of the best sushi I've had. Without the discount it can get pretty pricy

    Budget supermarket sushi. Good service. Bad sushi. Personally I will never visit a Sushi Light again.

    Tasty and good quality. I love how cheap the sake is yet so good.

    I got ramen takeout last night and when I got home I realized they didn't include the meat. I cannot find a phone number or any contact information. $30,000 for vegetable soup.

    It’s good, but service could be better and the sushi could also be better.

  • 1/5 Anastasia A. 1 year ago on Google
    We ordered in and were disappointed in how small the portions were… until I got food poisoning. Now only glad they weren’t bigger.

  • 5/5 Maria M. 1 year ago on Google
    Very delicious sushi! We loved the variation and the quality! Moreover we really loved the hot wine, highly recommended! We are from Germany 🇩🇪 and never expected to drink a very good "Glühwein " (vino caliente) in Colombia 🇨🇴 😅. It was a really nice surprise 😁. The staff is welcoming and Friendly.

  • 1/5 Andre P. 1 year ago on Google
    We decided to orden in and found that the portions were very small. A total of 5 miniature rolls for each roll. We almost thought it was a joke how small they were. Almost felt robber. For the amount of money we paid, there are much better dining option in Medellin.

    Really nice, good quality food. Fast service. WiFi was very slow though.

    Excellent food, service, no delays in servings, extended variety of ingredients to choose from. Would recommend to any sushi lover or first timer.

😠 We ordered a mixed ceviche and it was very acidic, you couldn't eat it, the presentation was terrible in a plastic cup. We paid 28,900 each and it was just onion, a small fish bite and 3 shrimp.
