SUSHICO — Restaurant in Newton

Coming across a place like SUSHICO is like finding a kangaroo at a dingo's breakfast - absolutely remarkable! Let me tell you, mates, this place rolls sushi better than Shane Warne spins a cricket ball. The delectable morsels they serve are a gastronomical delight, making every bite an experience to savor.

Now, listen up because we're about to immerse ourselves in the ocean of SUSHICO's eloquent sushi offerings. The Nigiri and sashimi were like the twang of a didgeridoo, flawlessly presented and sending your taste buds into overdrive. The sashimi was, to put it mildly, a symphony of raw brilliance, with flavors dancing on my palate like an energetic kangaroo.

Moving on to their special rolls, it was like a Steve Irwin adventure - unexpected, daring, and emotionally stirring. The entire experience was akin to an avian migration across the globe; it started in Japan, fluttered through the realms of creativity, and somehow managed to land right in your heart. The flavor profiles were reminiscent of my Aussie roots, wild and free yet intricate and sophisticated.

But let's not forget about the value you get here. Few places offer this level of sushi expertise with such an appealing price tag. It's akin to spotting a rare echidna - you get more than you bargained for!

And finally, can we just take a moment to appreciate the presentation? Like the grand finale of a Sydney New Year's Eve Fireworks display, each plate was a meticulously crafted visual feast. SUSHICO wins incredibly in making your food look as good as it tastes.

In the grand scheme of things, every aspect of SUSHICO shines, from the food to the value and the presentation. It doesn't just offer a peak culinary experience. It rolls you up in a delightful journey as memorable as a lazy afternoon spent watching the stars in the Southern Hemisphere. Now isn't that as Aussie as...

After some Yelp sleuthing for dinner in Newton, we settled on Sushico. The restaurant has a modern and elegant ambiance and friendly service. We got to try a variety of their dishes and I had some really tasty items.

Must get Yellowtail jalapeno - super fresh and tender melt-in-your-mouth fish, crunchy jalapeno, tasty sauce. Definitely one of my favorite crudos I've had in the past year. Unnamed roll - I can't figure out what this roll was called (they might not sell it anymore), but it had tuna, chili crunch, and microgreens on top. It was my favorite roll that we tried! Flavors, textures, and fish were all on point.

Good Tuna with shiso - very tender tuna, fragrant shiso Salmon avocado roll - fresh and tasty King roll - very interesting combination of ingredients (salmon, avocado, mango, veggies)

Meh Sushi tacos - I was really looking forward to these after seeing them in reviews, but I wasn't a fan. The ceviche taco was sweet and didn't have much savory flavor, and the tuna taco didn't have much flavor. These could be okay dipped in soy sauce, but I think the other dishes we had were better.

Overall, I loved the yellowtail jalapeno and the roll I can't remember the name of. The items are not cheap -- $8 for a miso soup? what's in it? -- but they clearly put a lot of care into sourcing their ingredients and are passionate about fish and sushi. Everything was fresh, yummy, and inventive. And it was more filling than I expected! I would love to come back and try more rolls and raw appetizers...

It is an irony that they sell asian cuisine but most discriminating people here is asian. If you are asian you will know and feel what I am talking about. I try to be fair. The food was good. I hate to write a bad review. Probably this is my first or second review on google at all. I personally enjoy to try various new restaurants in Newton. And Sushico. was the place I wanted to try this time with my family. When we went in the restaurant around 7 pm. There was surprisingly not many tables occupied maybe 4-5 tables max. When we entered the restaurant the two or three serving crews starring at us but no one paid attention to approach us. They just let us wait at least three minutes. You get such an impression that they totally alienate you. And finally one young guy came to us and ask if we had reservation while we didn’t. He went back to ask to his manager and coming back to us a couple of minutes later. So we had to stand and wait in the middle of restaurant for several minutes. And finally we got a table next to entrance. And one guy came to us and dropped the menus without explaining of any and disappeared in such a rude and looking down attitude. I don’t want to describe everything here. But these people working in this restaurant are unbelievably discriminating attitude. It is so sad to experience in our Newton such a...
