Zushi — Restaurant in Wasilla

What a GREAT place. We showed up after the lunch crowd was gone. Had the place all to ourselves, just us girls!

FOOD: Edamame for an appetizer that we shared. Yum! You must request soy sauce and I recommend their house made if you are watching your sodium intake. It's also delicious with a light Amber color and doesn't overwhelm your palate. Pork Ramen was fantastic and spot on. Made to order since my friend cannot tolerate spice. My other friend and I shared a Mega Dragon Roll made with cauliflower rice. I love tobiko and, even though it doesn't come with it, they added it per request...and then went above and beyond by alternating different flavored on each piece including orange, black, green and red. (The green had a hint of wasabi) I would be remiss if I didn't mention the dainty cranberry nut salads the preceded our dinner. Lovely in house ginger based dressing! We enjoyed the ambiance so much we decided to treat ourselves to an after dinner Sake Tini. Served in a champagne flute with a lime garnish. Refreshing pineapple taste. We were enjoying ourselves so much I didn't even manage a picture of them.

SERVICE: Superb. She joked with us and explained things we weren't familiar with. She even gave me a nic name! "Small mouth". Very accommodating.

ATMOSPHERE: Comfortable and not stuffy. Suitable for a business dinner or a casual family lunch.

PRICE: Reasonable! It averaged $30 per person and there may be a couple of things we ordered that I didn't mention. 😉

SUMMARY: Can't wait to go back and they love to cater to "regulars". If they like you, you might even get a discount off your next visit. We left satiated and were very content all the way around. I have to mention the cleanliness which was exceptional. Overhead there is a thriving, CLEAN, live ivy. The Windows were spotless which is a good indicator as to the cleanliness of the kitchen. Thank You Zushi for not just a meal, but...

Best sushi option in the Valley. Came here the other night and dined in for the first time in a while. It was so much better than I remember! It's not like it was ever bad, I remember it being quite good--but our sushi last night was amazing. I realize now that the reason for this is that the last few times we ate here it was takeout, and sushi is just always better in restaurant. Though they do have bento boxes and plenty of other non-sushi food items here too that make great takeout. It was fairly busy and they don't have a ton of seating in there but service was fast, efficient, and friendly. We got the rainbow roll and the hawaiian roll. The rainbow roll is always our baseline that we order at sushi restaurants to judge how good a sushi place is. Their rainbow roll had really good fish on it (and a variety), was large (their rolls have 10 pieces instead of the standard 8), and the rice/crab inside was fresh and the right consistency. The hawaiian roll was great too. I love any roll with mango on it. Their mango was fresh and the sauce on top was light and not too heavy. This roll has spicy tuna in it. I would definitely order it again. It came with salad and miso soup which were good too, I like their ginger dressing. It looks like they don't serve beer/wine anymore here like they used to, but they have a few specialty soda drinks. One more thing to mention is that their rolls are spendy but they are HUGE and fresh and delicious so it's worth it. We get two rolls and are full here. Overall great place and I want to start coming...

2024 update Sushi is still really good.Still have to request ginger and Wasabi. Still serving water in horrible steal glasses. Sadly, service is slowed way, way down. Recent trip on Friday was the worst. Only 3 tables the whole time and it took the gal probably over q0 mins to come back and even get our order. She never once returned to refill our waters. She never came to check on us and we waited over 10 mins to have her head pop out to let her know we'd like to-go boxes-she disappeared! Enough time went by that we actually got up to ask the sushi chefs for boxes...that's when she finally came back out with some. You would think she would've taken that as a sign for the check, right? NOPE! Asked for it and again, she took a her sweet time and waited until we stood up to get it. Never once did she smile or act pleasant during the service. But bow, when she saw cash, she was more that willing to collect the paid bill-before we were even done settling the bill between us. Lately I've been leaving really generous tips as we've been very fortunate lately, but service still has to be worthy and sweetie, you were lucky we rounded up. You were not meant to be in the service industry. Had a craving so ordered some take out.....ordered a spicy California roll, spicy crunch roll, a double crab and a halibut roll. Ready for pick up in 20MINUTES! 20 MINUTES!! Hell ya! The halibut and the double were our favorite! Will definitely order again! Prices were...
