Flawless. I was the patron in the late 90s but haven't been here in about 15 years. It's as good as I remember. The restaurant is cozy and has little romantic pockets where you could snuggle up to a date. The decor and cleanliness is also exceptional. There is a space for larger groups in the back. The service was also a exceptional. Helen, was a perfect host and made pleasant conversation while not intruding. She had that balance of being welcoming and also grateful that you're here to experience her restaurant. The menu is extensive and, fortunately for me, offered lots of options for my dietary restrictions. I don't need soy sauce, so the chef gave me a ramekin of spicy mayo. I had the Decatur roll, Salmon skin roll and a couple pieces of mackerel. For me, sushi is one of those things that you want to feel like everything has been handled with extra attention to detail, it's all fresh, and you'll never have a problem. That really comes across here. I thought that after 25 years, I had just romanticized how good this place is. It really is exceptional.

We came for dinner on a Thursday evening, arriving around 7:25. We were greeted with smiles when we entered. The host offered us seats right away & asked if we wanted a booth or table, we chose a booth. They weren’t super busy, but had a decent crowd. We started with some steamed shrimp gyoza, which were definitely better than a lot I have had. We ordered 5 rolls for the main, all came out within 15 minutes of our order being put in. All of our rolls were so good, the best one in both my & my wife’s opinion was the yum yum roll. I think it’s the crispiness, being that’s it’s flash fried, plus the spicy mayo & eel sauce, it was amazing! Our servers, they team up here, were very nice, super responsive & kept checking on us as we enjoyed our meal. Overall, the entire place was great, I can see why they have been in business for so long & why their reviews are so high, well deserved! If you’re looking for a great sushi spot that has a large variety of rolls, along with ramen & poke, this is your spot! Parking is limited in the front of the restaurant, but there are plenty of parking options in the area

Found our new sushi spot after our last go to closed down. We loved sushi ave ! The staff was friendly and welcoming. The prices are way more than reasonable. The food was fresh and made to order. All in all I would highly recommend if you're looking for sushi they may just be the best around.

Food is delicious and the service is great. The food is quite expensive ( but I am not comparing it with the prices of other sushi places). I highly recommend visiting Sushi Avenue.

One of the best sushi spots I have been to in a while. The service was fast, friendly, and professional. We ordered a variety of items from the menu and every item was delicious. My only regret was that we didn't get desert. If you're in the area and want sushi, this is the place to go.
