I Love Sushi

Was at Blackstone and the beertender suggested I Love Sushi as a place that had great sushi for a decent price. Lucked out and got the last spot in front and popped in to grab a bit. To be honest, the prices are not that decent. I might feel differently if the sushi was off the chart (try Takashi in Salt Lake City or Shibuya in Calabasas, CA). This is fairly average sushi and a bit pricier than some other average sushi joints in the Nashville area.We started with a calamari appetizer, which was probably the highlight. They served it whole rather than in rings (see picture). Maybe a bit overdone, but it was still in that soft stage between chewy (undercooked) and hard (overcoooked). The sauce was nice and added to the dish.I ordered a sushi combination and she ordered a roll (wish I remembered the name and too lazy to Google now). Both were good. I did like that the fish matched the rice ball size and the rice was not overbearing (another review of a place in Rome). Fish was fresh, but I have had tastier rice and fish at some other bars around the country.Overall, if the price was a bit lower, I might tack on another star. My understanding is they have great lunch and happy hour specials, so I would aim for this if you are seeking sushi.

Upon walking in, there were more people in for a Monday than expected. The cleanliness in the space and bathroom could use a bit of work (minor). There's a stinch and a few gnats (small bugs) in the air. The R&B remakes / covers playing in the background was welcoming though and the bartender was super attentive and helpful. She kept her space clean and was amazing! The food was quick to come out and was fresh!I started with miso soup which never fails! The yellowtail jalapeno apwas a great price for what you get and it was tasty!I wrapped up with the out of control roll which was recommended by the bartender. Fire. A mouthful but so yummy!

I fell in love with the "I Love Sushi" brand down in Huntsville, AL. I don't know if they are connected but looks like the same font and logo.Menu is huge but everything seems expensive...they probably have a high $ rent to keep up with there and cost of food these days.Everything was delicious and on point with other similar Japanese or sushi places. Nothing makes this stand out from others though. Parking sucks here if you can get in the deck but ask for their 30' comp QR code when you get in.

I decided to get sushi one day after work. I went around 6pm on a Tuesday night and the crowd was light. I didn't make a reservation and was able to get seated right away. Our waiter was nice, but bless his heart he didn't know anything about the menu. He tried, but he was so wrong lol. We had to get the manager, who was able to tell us more about the menu and gf options. I decided to go with the experience, and which came with 3 different types of rolls. Each roll was good. The experience allowed me to have a variety. I know, I'm greedy lol. The experience also came with miso soup and a salad. This meal was plentiful and I had leftovers for the next day.

Amazing sushi spot near Vanderbilt University. It's run by a super talented and sweet couple. I am very picky about sushi and was pleasantly surprised to find such a high quality place in Nashville. The service was top notch as well! I will definitely come back to try more from their menu when I'm in Nashville.

Fantastic fresh sushi. Arrived on a weekday night and although a little crowded we,party of 5 mind you, were seated in less than 5min. Waitress was prompt with service and quickly took the drink order. Food order was taken as drinks arrived. Now bout this sushi...The Spider, Dragon, and the Shaggy....absolutely some of the best sushi I've eaten in quite some time. Very fresh ingredients...nice bite. If you happen to be around I strongly suggest this for a good sushi option. Very lovely restaurant...fresh modern vibe!!

Walked here from Centennial Park, great location and ambiance (****)Service was mediocre especially considering we came on weekend for lunch and was pretty slow (***)Food quality was poor, especially the quality of the Tuna. Very pale and tasteless. All in all not the best experience (**)If you're just looking for the closest thing to a sushi place and quality isn't a big deal then I recommend; if your more discerning I suggest keep looking for a more authentic experience

Was here for large group event and the employees were very accommodating! Ordered a salmon lover roll and spicy salmon roll. Not the best sushi I've had in Nashville, but it was filling! Parking may be difficult as well.

Great options for someone who doesn't typically like sushi! This place has a ton of sushi options for veteran sushi-lovers, but as someone who typically doesn't enjoy sushi or raw fish, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the options here!Instead of defaulting to a safe bet of teriyaki chicken, I decided to try the Love Wheel Roll (bottom of the photo) and it was delicious. The top roll was the Salmon Lover Roll and my partner equally enjoyed that as well.

BEST FOOD IVE HAD IN TOWN ITS SOOOO GOOD (better than Hattie b's).xoxoxoxoxooxoxoxo Love ya more than sushii
