Sushi Corner - Wrocław — Restaurant in Wrocław

On an afternoon when the sun had clearly forgotten it was spring and my stomach had begun composing tragic haikus about its longing for raw fish, a dear friend burst into my life with the jubilance of a puppy on espresso and said, “Let’s go out for sushi!” Now, it had been a while since I’d tangoed with tuna or pirouetted with salmon, so naturally, I responded with all the restraint of a Labrador offered a steak. I gleefully accepted, already picturing myself awash in an ocean of glistening sashimi, like Poseidon at an omakase buffet.

Thus, we ambled through the cobbled veins of Wrocław until we stumbled upon Sushi Corner, nestled on Włodkowica Street like a shy introvert at a house party—unassuming, modest, and frankly easy to miss unless you were squinting with intent or already lost.

Inside, the place was petite but pleasant. It had the ambiance of a sushi-themed yoga retreat—peaceful, understated, and slightly smelling of soy sauce enlightenment. Enter: our waitress, a walking beam of sunshine with an accent as polished as a BBC presenter and a smile so dazzling it could defrost a Polish winter. She was charming, attentive, and made us feel instantly welcome—like long-lost friends or two mildly disoriented tourists who looked like they might tip well.

The menu, however, was where things took a curious turn. Rather than whispering seductively of otoro and uni, it offered a rather predictable selection of maki rolls, and to my horror, a severe and unrepentant lack of sashimi. I felt personally betrayed, as though a violinist had invited me to a symphony and then handed me a kazoo. There was no parade of pristine raw fish; just a rolling mediocrity of rolls.

Still, ever the optimist (and already emotionally invested), I ordered a selection platter, hoping it would redeem the menu’s minimalist ambition. What arrived looked like sushi’s attempt at interpretive dance: maki rolls sliced with the accuracy of a blindfolded samurai. Some were plump and corpulent like they'd just discovered carbs, while others were so thin and dry they looked like they were on a rice-based detox. The rice was overcooked in a way that felt personal—dry, slightly clumpy, and gasping for moisture like a desert pilgrim. It’s a cruel thing, when rice, the canvas of sushi, turns into sandpaper in disguise.

The fish? Passable. Not singing arias, not giving TED Talks, just… there. A bit like that co-worker who always shows up to meetings but never speaks. You appreciate the effort, but you’re not giving them a raise.

As I chewed my way through inconsistent cylinders of culinary confusion, I realized this meal wasn’t a disaster—it was a gentle disappointment. Like opening a birthday present and finding socks. Useful. Acceptable. But your inner child still dies a little.

In sum, Sushi Corner is a cute little spot with lovely service, decent intentions, and a kitchen that could use a gentle reminder that sushi is both an art and a science. If you're a casual sushi fan, you’ll likely leave content. But if you, like me, are a card-carrying member of the Sashimi Syndicate, prepare to have your hopes gently lowered with a smile.

Still, hats off to the waitress. She deserved a Michelin star just for...

Be careful on what you order. Their consult of spicy is far from the Japanese concept, closer to Korean/Chinese. No mid-term, and no one will ask you about how spicy it should be. I've asked for a hot sushi (like fried sushi, hot food, not spicy food) and didn't get happy. There were so much spicy that even the shoyu looked red at the end. Their Thai soup has too much pepper sauce, it badly blends into the coconut and lemongrass, just floats on top as red oil. Everything seems like it could taste wonderfully well, but very easily your trading capabilities are destroyed unnecessarily by the exaggerated amount of pepper spicy. I like pepper, but I wanted to taste the food. I don't recommend this place, or, can recommend if you first all what are you ordering, they have no indication on menu of what is over spiced. Also, the size is too big for a bite. I don't know why they do things that require you to eat in 2 bites: sushi slices are not to be cut in the middle, they lose structure, you can't hold them anymore! Why such huge piece? Sushi pieces should be...

Google recommended this place. (Check the 1 star reviews) Have no pictures to show or anything to say for sc, as I was completely turned off by the incompetence of the person who answered the phone. Me: “I received a recommendation to visit your establishment I was wondering do we need a reservation or can we walk in” SC: “yeah well I don’t know, we have people now, we have people coming later, we’re kinda full yeah so I don’t know but you can try” They didn’t ask when I want to come or the time or anything. SOOOO Guess where we’re all going again- SAKANA 😍 SUSHI * now know as WSZOKU 🍣 (highly recommend)- thanks google but the ⭐️ reviews seem to be more accurate. If this is the customer service I get on the phone then no thanks, We’ll take out...
