Such a cute vibe and the staff were all so kind. Our server was perfect and another staff member held the door for me. I recently had surgery and she saw that I couldn't get around easily - so thoughtful! The sushi was fresh, high quality, and reasonably priced. We went for happy hour sushi and were very pleasantly surprised by the good deal and quality. From the nigiri to the hand rolls, we enjoyed it all!

(Review #992) Really an oddball gem in mostly quiet residential Tampa. I've been here a couple times now, and it's close to a good friends house. The service is really good. The sushi and fish in general is very fresh. The poke bowls are superb. The rolls are good...can be a little bit inconsistent in size/cut etc. But generally tasty. Kids seem to love the place. The food comes out really fast. Ambience is lovely with indoor and outdoor and fire pit seating too. It may seem like it's out of place. But it's a good place for lunch or dinner.

I have been coming here for the past 7 years - ever since it opened. It is such an amazing spot and a lot of locals come here for happy hour. That is the absolute best time to go. You can't beat the prices. The sushi is always amazing and fresh. The service is always quick and the staff there is great. It's a chill, laid back spot and a great place for a date night.

Sushi bar is what's happening. Watching those sushi chefs bust out the delicious rolls is always the best. The sushi rolls are fantastic and the happy hour specials are phenomenal. . We have a food allergy in the family and they pay good attention to it. Good daily specials, happy hours, and food in general. Worth a try!

Very nice atmosphere with a busy Nuevo vibe! The menu was expansive & offered lot more than sushi. However we stuck to the rolls and sashimi, and really were impressed with our selections. The happy hour options were a great deal of the traditional rolls like Japanese Bagel Roll, Mexican Roll, etc. We also ordered a few rolls from the signature roll menu. My favorite was the Yoshi Roll which was the perfect mix of tempura & salmon with thinly sliced lemon. The Bang Bang roll was yummy too. Also of note was the delicious miso soup. Our server was a doll & more than pleasant but service was extremely slow. Took over an hour to get our rolls. Not sure if the fault lied with our server or the chefs but the wait was excessive. Tough with two little ones to wait that long! If they could improve on that, I'd happily give this place 5 stars!

Sushi Alive is a solid choice if you are looking for decent sushi. I got 2 of their rolls to go and they were well made. The fish was fresh and the sushi pieces were of a good size with a good balance between rice and fish. Some places, they have way too much rice, but this place is pretty balanced. The service was decently quick and the interior ambiance of the restaurant was well kept and modern. Definitely looks like a place with a good atmosphere to kick off the weekend :)

I sat at the bar where Ashlee greeted me promptly and made me a spicy bloody Mary. She informed me was happy hour, and several drinks were $5 and under including my Bloody Mary! They also had a happy hour sushi on the weekends $5 rolls. This was definitely a bargain. I started my meal ordering the Arizona roll and the Florida roll. They were both fantastic. I preferred the Arizona over the Florida midway through my meal. I also ordered the Eel and spicy tuna. If I had to pick the eel is definitely my favorite. I have never found this much sushi for only $20 bucks! You need to come check this place out. Definitely check out the outside patio with beautiful statues and waterfalls. It's a whole vibe in itself.

I come here quite often for their 5-7 happy hour sushi prices. Although I wouldn't say they're top of the line sushi, I still enjoy almost everything I order. Drinks are also flavorful and have good options to choose from. The first couple times I came here, they would mess up usually at least one roll per table, but so far the past few times they've been very consistent in getting orders out correctly and in a timely fashion. Plenty of seating, decor is nice inside and outside as well

My husband and stumbled upon this gem when we were in the area looking for a happy hour. We arrived and requested seats at the sushi bar. They have amazing happy hour specials Monday-Friday 5-7PM. Gabi was our server and she was so sweet and super helpful with providing recommendations. We got 3 rolls, a bunch of nigiri and a hand roll. All of the sushi was fresh! We were so impressed. The 2 for 1 wine is also a great deal! The Gator Roll and Tempura Salmon rolls are a must get. We loved everything we got and will definitely be back to enjoy this delicious sushi again soon!
