“ We wanted for long time to go, and we finally made time. The food was amazing, staff very kind, and friendly. Rock City and Cricket rolls were my favorite. The spicy seafood miso soup was amazing, probably one of the best. They were very generous with the seafood inside the soup. For dessert I enjoyed the Tempura Cheesecake. I do recommend it. ”
“ Arguably the best sushi we've ever had with some of the kindest service around. We love it here and when we come back to St. Thomas we will dine here again. Thank you for the hospitality! We had: Pimp my roll Spicy tuna roll ”
“ Fresh sushi served daily! Had a great experience w my wife and her friends. Drinks were on point and the service was outta this world nice The spicy sushi rolls were on point; spice was very authentic! The calamari had great taste and the sweet chili sauce was great to dip it in I really loved the Fire Snapper and Parrot Fish rolls. Outstanding experience ”
“ A friend called the owner to tell them we were coming in for an anniversary dinner. They treated us like royalty. Wonderful people and great food. Hard to beat that. The miso is excellent and the fish was all fresh. ”
“ Buddah Sushi hit the spot. It was the 1st place we ate at when we got to the island. The owner was super cool and hung out with us for a bit. Our waitress made you feel like family. I was there with my 2 nieces (15 and 17). We're vegan and loved everything we ate! ”
“ Omg! My friends and I love sushi. We're very picky about it too. Good is hands down some of the best sushi I've ever had and I've been to Japan! The waiters were lovely as well! There was a mix of live music and Taj DJing. So fun! We decided that while on this trip, if we can't decide on what to eat, we're coming back here lol We had fried rice, the saltfish pate, a Philly, a California, the cricket and the volcano roll! All fabulous! The fried rice was unlike anything we'd had before! The only thing that was slightly amiss were the drinks but we literally don't care because the sushi was so freaking good!!! ”
“ Super good but SUPER SLOW service also very expensive. The food is excellent but prepare yourself for a 3 hour dinner. I am not sure why it takes so long as it has never been busy when I’ve gone. I would 11/10 recommend the oyster appetizer- so freaking good. Their presentations are nice with the sauce writing for the name of the sushi rolls. Fish tastes very fresh. They have a large menu so everyone can find something they like. Staff is also very nice just need to figure out how to make their service faster!!!!! ”
“ I hate to leave reviews. I only do if I want to save someone else trouble or if my experience was worthy of bothering others with. Well, I came here once at the suggestion of a friend, and now I come every time I am here. Personally, my favorite is the Buddha Sushi roll. I left a pic. There are so many flavors that truly hit your taste buds one at a time and are not all mashed together. 6 times I have eaten it and all times are great. The owner/top chef is a culinary artist, and it shows. He has own several food awards. The building has always been clean, and the waitstaff (my favorite is Faye) are very respectful and helpful with suggestions. Lastly; MUST TRY soursop sherbet! I hear that Taj makes it himself, and the flavors finish off any palette. ”
