As far as sushi in Bayside goes, I'm quite loyal to River on Springfield Ave – but sometimes you've got to mix it up. Sushi Bell is ultra casual; You can easily tell all the furniture and décor is from IKEA. As an appetizer, we shared the soft-shell crab salad – because you really can't go wrong with meaty, deep-fried chunks of breaded crustacean and ginger dressing. And for our meal, we ordered the Sushi & Sashimi combo special. Decent portion for two people, the special rolls were yummy and the cuts of sashimi were large and thick! The rest of the sushi was only alright, though. Don't be fooled: The large hot sake may only be $6 each, which is why we thought getting two would be a great value, but that's because it isn't very good. Trust me, the several AYCE sushi spots within a short driving distance of here are a better bang for your buck.
Sushi places abound on Bell Boulevard and we tried this place after seeing a lot of reviews. The menu is focused on sushi and gives plenty of choices. Fish was fresh and rolls were a good size. Great choice if you're looking for quick and inexpensive sushi for a meal.
Pleasantly surprised by Sushi Bell. I never went in because the outside of the restaurant doesn't look very appealing, but I'm glad I gave it a try. My friend and I ordered a few special rolls and they were okay. Nothing extraordinary. I wouldn't mind eating here again.
The servers are always so nice and polite. Place is clean and bright. I usually get the boxes here, it comes with soup, salad, choice of sushi roll, veggie tempura, and a few pieces of shumai. Their salad dressing is not the typical orange salad dressing you would find in other Japanese places. The dressing is more tangy and they use lemons. They also offer roll combinations.
I usually get the spicy tuna crunch roll. I tried the halloween roll once, which included a tempura kabocha filling. I feel like you can't go wrong with any of the rolls on the menu.
When you have a craving for sushi this is a good place go. It's simple and delicious. Nothing too fancy and the price is decent.
Oh my gosh..just had the first take out from this restaurant and my immediate response was, how come I didn't know about this sushi spot from the beginning? I ordered the special combo rolls: tiger sushi and super shrimp tempura with avocado. It was amazing! I will definitely be back to try more rolls and to satisfy my sushi craving, of course! Yum!!
I came here for dinner on a weekday night since I was craving sushi, and though I have some suggestions, I was pretty happy with what I got.
I got the Bento Box with the Boston Roll, which includes cucumbers, crabmeat, and avocado drizzled with spicy mayo. I enjoyed the shrimp shumai, salad and vegetable tempura that came with the roll, though I wish the portion sizes were larger.
My host was kind and attentive– she defied the common notion that the younger you look, the less capable you are at your work, because she looked relatively young (I'm guessing she's in high school or started college), but she was sharp in answering questions about my order, quick with getting my food to me, and refilled my water glass when it was empty.
I loved the R&B tunes playing in the background & thought they were so on point– Mario's "Let Me Love You" and Tamar Braxton's "The One" were in the mix.
My second favorite sushi spot on bell!
I usually take it to-go since I live near by and my order ALWAYS consists of: White Castle Roll, which is eel cucumber roll with cream cheese that's torched on top and Pink Lady Roll, which is spicy salmon roll with salmon on top. The salmon from here tastes super fresh and it's just yummy! I've also ordered the Troika Tempura Roll, which is tuna, salmon, white fish tempura with avocado, caviar and it's pretty tasty as well. They also have roll combos at good prices including special roll combos so it's definitely worth it!! I've gotten their kani salad before and it's ok, but I've had better.
The girls who take the orders are always super nice and never make any mistakes.
One downside is that they do not deliver 🙁 I would order from here so much more if they offered delivery services!
The outside of the store is non-descript and bland. Doesn't instill one with the sense of 'good food', especially seeing how it's right next door to a Domino's Pizza (bleah!)
When you walk in, the decour is faux-Japanese, done well, despite some people calling it "the Ikea look". If the outside is drab, the inside is somewhat cheery. Appears very clean.
Main waitress is clearly Chinese. Younger waitress looks Japanese to me. I didn't see the person who prepared the food.
Menu is Japanese food only, which is a good thing. The menu is somewhat limited in its offerings (for example, no toro, no tamago). I didn't see anything that totally wowed me out. Looked pretty standard.
Price is medium range. Not expensive. Not cheap, either.
The fish is tasteless. I ordered a roll and was shocked by the lack of flavor. I then ordered some sashimi so I could sample the fish quality, and found the fish quality to be poor. It shouldn't make a difference, but we sampled the food on a Sunday afternoon. Perhaps the food is fresher on another day.
Unagi Sashimi: B+
This is an unusual unagi, at least what they served me. I've never seen a fatty unagi before in my life, and I've devoured countless eels. Very fatty, very tasty. There were a few inedible bones in the piece of unagi that they served, which indicates it was slightly old / slightly cheaper unagi. It's the expensive young'uns that have bones that melt in your mouth. Still, good flavor. Expensive because the cut was rather small. Believe it or not, unagi is way cheaper in Japan!
Double Crunch Spicy Tuna Roll: C
All I could taste was rice and spicy mayonnaise. Other than the texture, I couldn't detect the presense of the meguro at all. It tasted like rolled up rice and spicy mayo. I told my wife she could finish it. I didn't want to eat the rest. But now I was curious. This sushi place gets 4/5 stars. Is that bogus? Is the fish high quality and I just couldn't see it? Mass insanity on Yelp? So I ordered meguro and hamachi sashimi a la carte, just to sample the quality of the fish.
Meguro Sashimi: C-
Completely tasteless. Seems like the fish was frozen at some point.
Hamachi Sashimi: C
Mostly tasteless. Seems like the fish was frozen at some point.
