Yum. Best sushi in the back bay!
Decent rolls- liked White Tiger best, but hated cooked salmon on the Volcano. Skip the Samuri maki- Spicy Rainbow was pretty good. Overpriced for the size rolls. I usually eat 2 rolls but cleared 4 tonight, but could have stopped at 3. Would try other Places before coming back.
Good Eats. Went to Samurai with friends for a couple of times after work. It's a great place to hangout and get a drink or two. A good place to catch a game too. They have two flat screens in front of the bar, and the bar has great selection of good Japanese beers and sake. Food is good as well.
Someone at work had been raving about this place, so one weekend afternoon we decided to try it out. The restaurant has a few other diners, but for the most part is pretty quiet. The service was good, our order was taken and our food came out quickly. Rising Sun ($10.95) On top: spicy tuna, tempura chips Inside: California roll. This was a really tasty roll, combining all the flavors that I like. The tempura on top gave it some nice crunch and texture and the avocado inside gave it a smooth creaminess. I had the Nabeyaki Udon ( $10.95) Hot pot style vegetable udon noodle soup toped with shrimp tempura and egg. Check out how perfect that egg is! The soup was hearty and delicious, I didn’t even put a dent in it, that’s how filling it was. Overall, the meal was really tasty and high quality. We would definitely go back to try other sushi.

Delicious miso soup, and splendid tempura sushi - I've never had this type of sushi before, where the whole roll is tempura-fied. Not realizing that it would be as such, we also ordered a massive tempura dish (also not realizing it would be so massive!). Great portion size and wonderful food. Our server was also top-notch.
From the Maki Rolls to the Fatty Tuna, each piece of sushi is carefully crafted, designed and impeccably fresh. I've been here a few times and the one thing that consistently stands out to me is the quality and freshness of the fish. Way better than other Sushi Fare in the neighborhood.
The most fun you can have in boston ANY night of the week if you are looking to have a good time! The people here are so friendly and there is never a dull night! The food is great and always served fast! This is my favorite place to go after work because I know I can unwind and have great food, great drinks, and get amazing service! The bartenders here are my favorite in Boston! I highly recommend this place!
I had a very nice visit with above average sushi. The best part of the night was talking with Sang, the sushi chef, about traditional vs new sushi and him whipping up an ume shisho onigiri on the spot for me! Absolutely delicious and it had real ume, not that paste that most restaurants have and it transported me back to a trip to Japan I took 5 years ago. I will definitely be back next time I visit Boston!
The actual restaurant is a LOT darker than the picture lets on, but it's a great environment. The staff is always friendly, and the food is amazing. It's a little on the higher end for price, but definitely worth the trip.
Very good, big and tasty bento boxes which are pretty cheap. Except common chicken, salmon and so on teriyaki you can also take eal teriyaki
cheap and taste, shushi is good. Cost about 13 USD per person.
Cozy location. Tasty sushi rolls, kind of expensive but fast service.
I liked the service and the food, everything was really good.
Very cool place though I wish their proportions were bigger.
Good sushi and excellent service.
