Mola is one of my favorite lunch spots for sushi! The waiters are always super friendly and the modern ambiance inside the restaurant makes it an enjoyable sit down experience.I love the lunch specials they offer specifically getting to pair a roll with a bao bun. My favorites include the shrimp tempura and eel roll. The Mola Vegetables are also a must try appetizer.

Sushi at Mola is always a treat! We happened to catch the tail end of their daily lunch special that's everyday from 11-3:30 where you get a free side with certain entrees. It was so cold that we had to go with the miso soup! The sushi at Mola is always so fresh and delicious and it's definitely one of my fave sushi places in Pittsburgh! The service was fast and friendly. The inside is pretty small so I would either go at an off time or make a reservation ahead of time.

Came here after making a reservation day of. I believe they only accept reservations by phone call. It was a Sunday so street parking was free, although it was still hard to find since it's a busy street. Their sushi menu wasn't very extensive, they offered rolls most sushi places have so there wasn't much uniqueness. The rolls were really good, fresh seafood and tasted absolutely delicious and of high quality! Affordable as well. It did take a long time to come. It's a pretty small space so it was kinda cramped and we could easily overhear other table's conversations. Our waitress was really nice and friendly and when my boyfriend ordered a drink, she asked me for my ID as well even though I didn't order anything. I've never experienced that before so I thought it was kind of strange but fortunately I brought my ID so my boyfriend could drink (not me). I definitely recommend Mola if you want high quality, somewhat casual, affordable sushi.

Super cute but kind of small inside so definitely make a reservation. This sushi is the best I've had in Pittsburgh -- the rice seriously takes it to the next level. Our waiter, who was awesome and gave us a great overview of the whole menu and some delicious recommendations, told us how the rice is brown looking because it's white rice that is soaked in this sushi rice vinegar they get from japan that is barrel aged and normally only used in Michelin star restaurants. 10/10 highly recommended!

Go to sushi place in Pittsburgh! The quality of the fish here is unmatched. Best fish in Pittsburgh. I don't say that lightly. My wife and I are sushi snobs. My only complaint is they need a way bigger space. But I like the no frills approach so they can focus on quality ingredients. Place is always packed! Go early and go often!

Inside of a food hall. Fresh poke. Seasoned well. Good service. Reasonable wait time.

Been to Tokyo (my staff member's uncle was a sushi chef), worked in New York, and enjoyed sushi in coastal seafood meccas like Portland, Maine and Vancouver. This King Salmon Chirashi (sourced from Hokkaido) blew my freakin' mind! This place is so good and unpretentious, but casually refined. Will come back again and again.

Great to-go meal for my first time trying this restaurant. The food was prepared quickly. I had the miso glazed salmon (sub broccoli to make it GF) and a tuna/avocado roll. My husband had a shrimp tempura roll, Cali roll, and a sirloin steak rice bowl. All were equally delicious and we will be back.

Great fresh fish and a very great menu. There are multiple drink options including hard liquor and sakes! The cut rolls and specials are reasonably priced and our server was very attentive. We enjoyed the crab handroll and the sushi selection including yellowtail and tuna! It is a smaller seating space so sure to make a reservation!

Mola is a nice spot for some quality sushi as well as some other items including bao buns. The restaurant is nice though it does feel somewhat cluttered. They have table seating as well as some bar top options as well. Reservations are possible which is recommended as they have limited space and it does seem busy. The service was good and the food came out pretty quickly after we ordered. The Sushi regular combo was pretty good though I'm not sure I'd want to have the blue crab hand roll again. My daughter enjoyed her Spicy Salmon Poke. The seaweed salad and pork boa buns were also tasty.
