This is a nice cozy sushi restaurant, we were seated right away, our waitress was attentive, and the sushi was a great value and quantity!! Wee had some saki too, enjoyable evening!!!
Looked a little dimly lit and shady but we were in the vicinity and had to eat sushi - was ok finally. Had a nice small boat/ platter of sushi and sashimi. Was ok. Served the singha etc to go with it. Waitress was helpful though a bit grumpy.
Fins sushi and grill is a great establishment. What seemed like a very fancy and long waiting restaurant was actually quick...But their spoons are weird.
Really good green tea and sushi rice w shrimp. My California roll was just ok.
Lunch special. (review dated 7/08):
nice little place for lunch at kenmore square. comfortable seating, good service, reasonably priced. my salmon teriyaki is well cooked, not over, although the sauce is a bit on the salty side. loved their salad dressing, though. been dying to make/find one with the right taste.
their lunch bento comes with a soup, and a box that included salad, two pieces of california roll, two pieces of dumpling, rice, and fresh fruits! good quality food at $8.50, where else can you find that?
p.s. their curry looks good, and japanese, too. (trust me, i've had pretty bad experience elsewhere.)
:)
Best in kenmore. Great food for a good price. I highly recommend their
Teriyaki Salmon Bento box for lunch. Its just over 9 dollars but comes with a big piece of teriyaki salmon, rice, 2 pieces of sushi, 2 pieces of goyoza, a salad and a bowl of miso soup. This is the best deal in Kenmore Square and it offers a ton of food and a variety of flavors. They also serve a mean Spicy Beef Udon Noodle Soup that is huge and delicious and good sushi. They play great music in the restaurant but it is also a great place for pickup. It is a must try!
A favorite. This place is right next to a bunch of my friends' living group, so we default here all the time. I usually split a couple of their rolls and some nigiri with someone. They have some great combinations (cowboy maki: steak and asparagus roll??? ocean and christmas maki are two of my faves) with very fresh ingredients. I've had a bento lunch and an entree there once and they were pretty decent in terms of size and quality. Their noodle and rice dishes are good, but massive, and I don't go there to just have one enormous homogeneous meal.
I like their green tea; it has sort of a brown rice-ish taste rather than sencha. The cups hold like two mouthfuls of tea, though, so you have to keep waiting for refills. You can also get a little mochi ice cream at the end for a dollar, which is a nice palate cleanser.
Amazing place!! I went to Japan a couple of months ago and reminded me of the authentic taste. Better for ordering traditional meals, like miso soup, gohan, and grilled fish. A few of the places I know that have lobster maki! coming back for sure.
First time coming to this establishment. It has a nice ambiance. I really enjoy the shrimp tempura appetizer. It comes with vegetables but I asked my waitress if she could kindly take it off and she said yes. I don’t really like fried vegetables. I got the maki lunch special. I choose the picked 3 for $18. Not a bad deal. It was super yummy. I got miso soup on the side as well but I think it was complimentary. I did not see it comes with miso soup on the menu but well kind waitress I had.
This was a delivery order. Where was this place all along? The packaging was so beautiful that it gave me restaurant feeling. A cute soy sauce container, patterned box with sushi, amazing spring rolls. They also gave a complimentary miso soup. That was amazing too.
Overall great great 👍
Cute place. Everything about the sushi was great except for the fact that it wasn't as chilled as I would have liked. Notable mention: maine lobster maki roll. Drinks were ok. Pricing was fair and shumai app was yummy. Horrible parking in the area unless you have a resident sticker. Take public transit or ride share.
A fairly good sushi restaurant.
We went there for a simple dinner. The sushi was fresh and delicious, based on the affordable price. Yes, as a restaurant named as “sushi and grill”, the price was really good, no more than $30 each person.
All sushi looked very nice. But I was not sure if they was freshly made or already sit for a short while - the seaweeds tasted tough, like what in a buffet restaurant.
Regardless of that, everything was fine.
The food is average. Could be more flavorful. The drinks were good. It is very asthetically pleasing.
This place serves great food in a relaxed atmosphere, good for dates or hanging out with friends. They serve sushi but also hot dishes like fried rice. Service is always great and prices are fair.
Tip: try one of their bento boxes for lunch!
We ordered some sushi via Uber Eats to enjoy at the marina. The restaurant was very quick and we had our food in no time. I loved my poke bowl. The dressing and ginger made the bowl pop with flavor. If I lived in the area, I would most definitely be a regular!
They have one of the best fried calamari i have ever tasted. However, their Boston roll is one of the worst makiroll i ever tasted ( maybe my pallet)... location and service is good.
On a weekend away together to Boston we got in and decided we wanted sushi, this was the first place to come up as a suggestion. OH MY GOODNESS! So yummy, extremely fresh and fair priced for sure! And the little sauce trays!? Too perfect! The Lobster Rangoon is an absolute must as well! We have already decided we will be ordering again before we leave tomorrow ;) Highly recommend!
Real score 3.9-4.6 (I went back)
I was looking forward to blue fin sashimi. They were out, so I punted with the combo.
Salad was good. Miso soup pretty good. Sushi/sashimi was good. But I didn't realize the nigiri would be seared. Not a fan of warm nigiri or sashimi. #2.Since it was close and I was craving..
Got rhe the Blue fin I was Not dissapointed!!
I asked for no torching. So good! 3rd pic
A taste of Japanese food in the midst of busy Boston. Staff are friendly and patient in explaining the menu. Prices are average, so it is value for money. I sat at the bar counter and had a nice chat with the chefs. The chef prepared a special sushi recipe for me and it was the best food i've tasted for a long time. Everyone working here seems to be happy, and that translates to good dining experiences.
It was so good! Fresh ingredients and friendly staff.
I stumbled upon this restaurant across from Mass General Hospital and frankly wasn’t expecting much. But upon walking in I was intrigued by the Toro sashimi and sushi plate which sounds intriguing. I ordered that along with some salmon sashimi and I was quite impressed with the quality of the sushi. The Toro set plate also had a Toro Maki roll in addition to sushi. What I was most impressed with was the quality of the sushi and the price was very reasonable in fact shockingly reasonable for Boston. The service was also outstanding. Next time I’d like to try some of the cooked items.
I highly recommend this restaurant.
A reasonably priced spot with decent quality food- my advice is to stick with the sushi because the other entrees (such as the Gyudon and the Udon) that I’ve had have been somewhat mediocre. My go tos are the Snow Mountain Maki (crab and tempura) and the Fins special roll (shrimp tempura with eel sauce).
