Forever Sushi — Restaurant in Puyallup

Food/Taste/Flavor: 2/5 - Forever sushi is right since it stays on the belt forever. We didn't eat much since the items on the belt look dry and wilting. The "wasabi" was in a container at the table and slightly turning brown with no spiciness or kick.

Started with the Shrimp Tempura and Spicy Krab Rolls which were average. Can't really taste the tempura but the textures were good.

Octopus Nigiri was good with nice texture and chew. The rice was a bit drier so not sure if it's been sitting on the belt for a while

Squid Salad was good but very inconsistent cuts! With tiny pieces that we could barely pick up to ones about the size of a nigiri. Very well marinated with some ginger to help cut through

Ordered Salmon Belly through server. The nigiri was a bit odd since the rice and fish was a bit warm when we ate it. The rice was slightly off since it was a bit mushy.

Golden Road ordered through the server was another shrimp tempura with mango sauce and some sort of chili sauce on it. Definitely on the sweeter side.

Ambience: 4/5 - it feels like organized clutter with things everywhere and on the walls. The set up of the restaurant was a bit odd since the people making the sushi are in the middle but at such a height and with things around them that we can't see what they're actually making. No or really faint music. We did come at the end of the night so there was some trash on the floor.

Service: 4/5 - lad was friendly and tried to help. Definitely can feel it's the end of the night since everyone is just trying to make it to the end of the shift and get out of there.

Value for price: 3/5 to 1/5 because I'm upset and the pricing is all over the place! When we sat down, they said to let the server know if there's anything unavailable and he can place the order. The menu in front of us said that the Golden Road roll was part of the red/orange plate at $4.95. But we were charged $7.43 because the price is $14.85 with 50% discount since we got 4 pieces. The server said he doesn't know why, maybe it's 3 vs 4 pieces, but that's just the pricing in the system and he can't change it. Just realized we were charge more for the salmon belly as well!

Here's a comparison of the prices between in store vs online: Shrimp tempura roll: $4.95 vs $4.47 Spicy krab roll: $6.45 vs $6.47 Octopus nigiri: same at $3.95 Squid salad: $4.45 vs $3.95 Salmon belly nigiri: $4.45 vs $4.95 Golden road: $4.95 vs $7.43

They charge you the online price if you order with the server, even if you're eating in the store. Also, he just showed the total amount on the device and asked us to pay. They don't give you an itemized receipt to show you what they're charging you unless you specially ask.

Would recommend to just go to a different place since it'll be a surprise when...

Best sushi place in greater Seattle area.

This restaurant was excellent in every criteria a restaurant can have. From parking to payment after dinning, I had such a pleasant experience.

When restaurants are evaluated for Michelin star, there are five criteria: The taste of the food, A consistently excellent dining experience , Savoir-faire , High-quality produce, and Chefs with a mastery of culinary techniques. I will elaborate my supreme dining experience at this restaurant according those criteria.

The taste of the food. Amazing. I am from Korea and had numerous top tier Omakases in my life from Osaka, Seoul, Dubai, and New York; all with multiple Michelin stars. Well, of course it's not on that level, but the taste they provide is utterly the best in this area for sure. I went to various sushi places for 6 years in King County but they all failed to satisfy to be my go-to sushi place. Until I stumbled upon this place. Unless I'm in Osaka or New York, I will go to this place for the genuine taste of sushi.

A consistently excellent dining experience. If you were my friend, you will be quite annoyed every time you go out with me. The amount of skepticism I have towards the average American diners($$-$$$) is beyond your imagination. If I were to spend my money and time to be served, I want to have a good time there. Before I went in the restaurant, I thought this place looked like any other teriyaki place where it serves frozen chicken. My mind changed 180 as soon as I walked through the door. It had a cozy vibe and the sitting was straight forward. Also, the server who guided us to our seat was very humble and kind. How I grade this criteria is based on how I feel during the car ride home. Feel bad = 1 star, Don't think about any experience I had there = 4 star, I keep thinking about the experience I had for 30 minutes = 5 star. I will give 5.

Savoir-faire meaning "the ability to act or speak appropriately in social situations" in french, this will be for the servers. I always leave the fattest tip to the server here. I hope that explains.

High-quality produce For the money you pay, you know that this is the best you can get. I can't eat the frozen h-mart sushis anymore after eating the sushi. I wonder how they even make profit with such a good ingredient.

Chefs with a mastery of culinary techniques I forgot to take a picture so please feel free to look at the photos other people posted while reading this review. If you pay attention to the detail, you will find how the sashimis have such a consistency on its width and height. That's masterclass level. If the same food is served on top of the space needle, you would pay $1,000 more for everything you will experience in that place.

I envy you people of...

If I could give this dump 0 stars, I would. We have been coming here occasionally since we moved to the area nearly two years ago. The service and cleanliness has gotten increasingly worse as time has gone by.

Tonight we went to dine in and the restaurant was disgusting. Our feet were sticking to the floor and we were sat at a table that had not been wiped down. We had to ask the man serving to wipe down the booth, as there was old food everywhere. He did so, but had a blatant attitude about it. Also, he kept walking away whenever we tried asking for anything.

This establishment has had paper menus the entire time we were patrons. When we asked him for the paper menus, he refused and told us they hadn't had them for "two years", which was a lie, as we were there 4 weeks ago.

He brought us three waters, a Diet Coke that I didn't take one sip from and my friend grabbed a two piece of tempura shrimp from the conveyer belt.

His attitude was so awful that we got up to leave and go somewhere else. Before we could go, the server set down a card reader to charge us for the one soft drink and tempura shrimp. I told him we were not paying and that he was being extremely rude and unprofessional. He continued to argue with me, claiming that he sells "$10,000 worth of sushi in one day". I told him that wasn't an excuse to treat customers like trash. My daughter was with us, so we walked away from him. His response, in front of my four-year-old daughter, was "Okay, then I will follow you out, and 'tag' your car, and call the police". He RAN INTO my daughter as he was rushing out the door to see which car we were going to. My friend, not wanting the cops to be involved, paid for the one drink and two pieces of tempura shrimp...

We asked him for his name as we were paying and he refused to give it to us, stating he was the "owner of this place, bro". He proceeded to say "F* you" to me in front of my daughter and called us names.

Do yourself a favor and go to Trapper's Sushi or ANY OTHER sushi joint for that matter. This place is revolting and the management is rude, disgusting and completely unprofessional. Forever...
