Best sushi?

Submitted by rhodyjourno t3_yoyqbm in providence

Looking for the best places to grab some lately. I feel as though the places that used to be fantastic before the pandemic aren't always the best options now.

Note regarding Ran Zan: it *is* awesome but the owners are in Japan until December 30th at 5:00 PM. Just FYI.

Haruki is good; Sakura is also good but don't expect great service. I've been to Sura too but it's been a while.

That’s an incredibly specific return time

A sushi chef is never late. Nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.

Sura Sushi is good. Sakura is good if you just order it for takeout.

I second Ran Zan for authenticity, simplicity and freshness. Haruki is a solid second bet.

Ran Zan, Haruki and Lim's

e: Also Fearless Fish Market has sushi grade fish if you want to make your own!

I wish Haruki express was still around. They were cheap and good.

Dadaruki opened up at the same location. Not sure if it’s the same owners, but it’s the same kind of food & it’s delicious!

They also have the best house salad dressing. I could drink it it’s so good.

I cannot get past Uncle Sushi's health code violations a number of years back. It was a while ago, but they had "imminent threats" to health and were closed for a while.

Jacky's North Providence (imo) is better than Jacky's Waterfront.

I find a lot of places have very bland rice, which makes for mediocre sushi. Somo in the Jewelery District is excellent.

I need to check some of the recommendations out here in NP!!

Lim's all the way. Plenty of other great things on the menu for those that do not enjoy sushi as well... best scallion pancakes I have ever had.

Lim’s is freaking awesome. And you can take your non-sushi-eating date as there are tons of other options on their menu.

Most people go for the hibachi, but Mount Fuji low-key makes some of the best sushi in Providence.

It smelled like a dead carcass in the hallway last time I went

This is 100% accurate. The decor is horrible, the usual clientele are pretty crass, the hibachi loud on the weekends,and the service can be spotty. The sushi chef’s are amazing.

Vatsana in Pawtuxet Village is pretty tasty

Osho Sushi on Smith st. In Nrth Providence is pretty good.

They also never have anyone dining in so it's pretty private.

Ebisu East Providence has decent sushi. Cant say its the best but they atleast use sushi vinegar. Thats an immediate plus for me.
