I ordered the Izu Sushi version of my go-to rolls, spicy tuna crunch and tempura sweet potato maki and, with a bogo deal, I got a second spicy tuna crunch as a hand roll.The spicy tuna was not too mayonnaise-y, had a mild garlicky flavor that amped up the umami factor, and the "crunch", which turned out to be panko breadcrumbs, was a tasty textural addition that I am very here for. The hand roll version was shaped very neatly with the ingredients tucked tidily together in a flatter shape that reminded me of conical musubi. There was plenty of tuna all the way down to the very tip making it feel quite substantial. The sweet potato roll was the simple carb-on-carb-on-carb standard I know and love featuring a light crispy tempura batter that pairs perfectly with a bit of eel sauce.I picked up a to-go order and the place was completely empty at 7pm on a Saturday night, so I suspect that most of their business is takeout. The lack of in-person patrons and a rather strong fishy smell inside the restaurant had me a little concerned about my choices, but don't let the lack of ambiance scare you off from the food.This hole-in-the-wall spot was super solid and reasonably priced to boot. Check online for some sweet coupons and have yourself a merry little sushi feast.

My husband and I were on a date night while my parents were in town and decided to check out another restaurant nearby. Sadly they were booked up for a while and we didn't have the time to wait it out. We decided to check out my bookmarks and found Izu Sushi. It was completely empty which was a bit concerning but we came in anyway. A few people came in after us but they were definitely busy with takeout. We tried to use the check in discount on here but they no longer offer it. They were having some good "deals" on sushi so we decided to go with those and then order a specialty roll and some cream cheese wontons. The wontons were the star of the show, perfectly crisp and not lacking on filling like so many others. Sushi was all decent, seemed fresh, but nothing really stood out.Service was attentive and the price was pretty solid for a sushi spot with discounted sushi.

Izu Sushi is very very good. It's a smaller place, but a decent amount of seating. The reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because if this place was busy, the tables are very close together. The sushi is fresh, the staff is very pleasant, and it's a vibe.

This place has designated parking in the back of the building!!!!Definitely recommend this place if you had dietary restrictions or just want vegetarian options. The veggie dumplings are delicious! My friends took advantage of the buy one get one of Hot Sake and they really enjoyed it.

Great Value!!I'm so used to spending a fortune on sushi. I assumed every $7 charge would be 1 or 2 pieces. Pleasantly surprised by how much food I got!! Very tasty too!!

So we are not experts in sushi, we assumed everything was wrapped in seaweed and rice. I got the cucumber roll which was just that, and i got avocado sushi, which was avocado with rice in the middle. The portions were extremely small. It was delicious though. My pictures show my and my boyfriends dish, so my order was at the bottom right corner. We were going to go do a lot of walking so u didn't want a heavy meal. I would say, make sure you know what you are getting before ordering. Everything else was great, The restaurant, The service, all great.

Ordered takeout from here and they had some nice specials running on the food apps. We got 5 rolls and crab wontons. The crab wontons weren't my favorite to be honest. But overall, rolls were decent and we enjoyed them. Solid 3 star sushi place.

Wow! This spot has got it all to make me a fan the first visit!Fresh sushi, sashimi, a very tasteful decor and great choice of furniture makes this a surprisingly awesome find in the Colfax area. They opened in May of 2014. Next to Voodoo doughnuts. You won't be embarrassed to take your date here! They have specials to order from or go the A la carte way. We tried the following:Saba Sashimi, Rainbow Roll, Crazy Roll and California Rill. Outstandingly delicious and fresh!

It might not look like much from the outside, but Izu is a great neighborhood sushi spot. Humbly sitting on Colfax near Voodoo Doughnut, I've driven by so many times and to be honest, it's easy to miss.My friends wanted sushi on a brutally cold day. We came in with fairly low expectations and walked out content, warm and STUFFED.I feel like in every food review I write I mention how starving I was. Well, our visit to Izu was no exception. To be honest, quantity was trumping quality. To our delight, quality is taken seriously here, too.Crab Rangoons are exquisitely presented on a star and moon-shaped plate. Some of the best 'goons I've had in awhile. Let's be honest, a bad rangoon is still good, right? These were crunchy and the filling was creamy. We got a second order for the table!The Spicy Crunch Roll combo is a hungry appetite's fantasy. Spicy crunch tuna, yellowtail and salmon for $20. TWENTY DOLLARS for 24 pieces of sushi. Talk about balling on a budget. In this economy, who's turning down a deal? With my friends low sodium soy sauce and wasabi by my side, I went from cold and hungry to warm and one hell of a gut busting food coma.My friends ordered some high quality, specialty rolls and I must say that each of them were wonderfully presented. Our server was great and had fun with us. I'm glad we had a great experience and I'll definitely recommend it to others looking for a reliably solid sushi spot!
