Overall, reviews say the food at Sushi Shop is very good and the service is friendly and efficient, though cleanliness in the restrooms should be improved. A cashier is praised for helpfulness and a refund was given when a bill needed adjustment. Some orders have been prepared incorrectly, with the Ibiza combo missing items such as black masago, green onion, spicy mayo and truffle oil, and the Tokyo maki and dragon rolls sometimes lacking spicy mayo, lemon or masago, despite notes left by diners. Despite these issues, staff are described as welcoming and the takeout experience is reliable, with fast service during opening hours and generous portions that make the meals feel fresh and satisfying. For many, Sushi Shop is a go to option for takeout and the salmon portions are noted as generous, with a consistent experience across visits.View restaurant profile
