Urban Japanese Fusion Cuisine

Edit: Updating this review to say that I got food poisoning here a few months ago and haven't gone since. The quality of the food seems to be going downhill as everything tasted kind of off - from the coke to the soup.

Good sushi and sashimi for the price. To start I had squid salad. It's been a while since I've had it but it great flavor. I had them make me yellowtail heaven b/c it wasn't on the menu. Had their rainbow sashimi, it was sorted sashimi on top of sliced cucumber and ponzu sauce and jalapeño on top of each fish. I also ordered eel sushi and salmon sashimi. It was so much food but so good.

I live in Memphis, so anytime I'm in Olive Branch or Southaven I have to dine in at Urban Japanese. Every time I go I get caught up in my food and experience that I forget to leave a review. Well I went to night and what can I say they never miss. The food always comes out hot and delicious. I love their spicy basil rice, thai dynamite, the Tom yum soup... ahhhhhhh you can't go wrong with anything you order here.The service is always good and they are very affordable. The inside is kinda small but I've never had to wait to be seated. There drinks aren't overpriced either. I love it and you will too.

I was hesitant coming here because of my shellfish allergy. But I let the waitress know and she made note of it. We got right in on a busy Saturday night. The food was all very tasty and reasonably priced considering what we got.

I went to Urban Japanese Fusion Cuisine with a coworker after work, and had a good experience. We were seated quickly, and our server was very friendly and knowledgeable about the various sushi rolls. We got edamame as an appetizer, and I ordered a caterpillar roll with an order of tamago nigiri. All of the food was delicious, and definitely satisfied our sushi craving. The restaurant had modern Asian-inspired decor, and was overall a great atmosphere. I'd definitely return.

Food is amazing, fresh hot and the vegetables are very, very tender, prices are on par with similar venues. Seating is spacious and the restaurant is well lit for a romantic outing or a first date but just well lit enough for older eyes. Now the bad, i have never, ever, ever been told that i can't order a child's meal!!??? Really??, this is absurd, and will only cause you to loose business, any way good luck with that.

Another good showing tonight from Urban Japanese Fusion. Today was youngest's birthday and he wanted to come here for dinner (again, he had his last b-day dinner here as well ). I was worried there'd be a wait as we got there around 620pm on a Saturday night but we were seated immediately and our server (Laura) was there quickly to take drink orders. 2 of us had sushi and sashimi combo and 2 had noodles. Everyone had generous portions and we were all nice and full at the end of the meal, both noodle dishes had to be boxed up to bring home as there were a good amount of leftovers. All the sushi got snarfed right there though.

The food and staff here are always good! It is rather small and cramped, and it's always almost completely full, so it gets loud! The Evo Roll is delicious!

I made it back for dinner one Wednesday evening. I arrived not long after they reopened at 5p and was seated immediately. I didn't have to sit at the bar this time. I had a table next to the beautiful fish tanks. This time I ordered the dare devil roll and the kimchi udon noodles. I opted to get noodles only with no veg/no meat. Next time I'll leave the veggies, but the noodles were really tasty alone. You get to pick your spice level (3 being the spiciest). I chose 3 because I love spice and they definitely had a nice kick to them. Nothing I couldn't handle though. The dare devil roll was yummy just like I remembered from last time. It's a pretty popular place with a nice variety of food. I will most definitely be back.

Where do I begin? As always, my husband and I were looking for a restaurant for our date night. And, of course, I am always in the mood for sushi. The urban Japanese fusion restaurant is always on point I'm able to get a seat quickly and the service is wonderful this time around we were able to enjoy happy hour where we enjoyed five dollar martinis and two dollar draft beers. I always forget the type of roles that I get but these pictures do not do any of the rolls that I tried justice. if you're looking to find a low-key restaurant spot in the DeSoto County area, you have got to come to this location.
