Really good sushi! Their special maki rolls are unique and use ingredients like thinly sliced lemon that I wouldn’t normally expect, yet don’t overpower the flavor. We especially liked the nigiri, each include a unique garnish that enhances the taste of the fish. The king salmon nigiri was the best I’ve had anywhere. Goes without saying that all the fish was flavorful and tasted fresh. We’ll be coming back soon!
We became big fans of the owner Alex! We visited here by chance but had a great experience with his exclusive maki, nigiri, sashimi and all his passion in his dishes. Every single piece has own flavor and get laced with his signature sauce which satisfied us so much. Also as you can see in pictures, every piece looks so sophisticated and when you try it, you can feel how harmonious the ingredients areDelicious, clean, cozy, and lovely restaurant.P.S. Please don't forget to try tacos as well!
This our hands down go to place now. Since Oishi in Chestnut Hill closed we haven't been able to find a place that is on its level nearby but Sushico really is. The rolls are very creative and there are many things on the menu that are a little rare like Black Bass. The staff is great and the owner Alex is very nice and checks in with everyone. He clearly loves what he does and that comes through in the food. Nigiri is one piece per order so make sure you remember that. Make sure you get a reservation.
Delicious, great service and vibe! Alex the owner is so talented and blends incredible flavors. Highly recommend!!
Sushico is a new sushi restaurant in Newton Center. The restaurant itself is spacious yet cozy. They did a beautiful job with the layout and decor. The owner was extremely welcoming and introduced himself to my friend and I and made some great recommendations for food and drink choices. We started with the sesame noodles and the salmon tacos. Both are great choices! I was highly impressed with the flavor of the tacos, so impress we ordered a second round! The noodles were also divine. We then ordered the salmon Tataki and it was like butter, literally melts in your mouth. You can tell by the taste and texture of the food that they only use the freshest fish. I honestly want to go back again as soon as I can, the food was that good!
Hands down the best sushi experience of your life. Alex and the team at sushi co make your experience unforgettable. From the fresh ingredients to beautifully concocted menu items to the amazing staff and tender care to details makes this place our favorite go to. Honestly checking the calendar on the walk out to plan the next visit. Do yourself a favor and swing by asap. Thursdays are my reco!Enjoy !
Was traveling to Boston for work and had a chance to hit Sushico with a friend and glad I did. This might be the best sushi I ever remember having. The chef/owner couldn't have been nicer and clearly takes pride in the food and the place - it isn't easy to make sushi "interesting" without bleeding into being "too overwhelming for the fish" but somehow this place does it. My only regret is that I'm from out of town and can't go more, but next time I'm in Boston this will be my first food stop. Food is great, place is cool and feels comfortable, good beers...great place.
What more can I say other than this is one of the best, perhaps the best, sushi I've ever experienced. You know you're in for a treat when the chef specializes in omakase, and serves dishes where it's recommended not to dip in soy sauce. Creative dishes that blended ingredients that consistently in worked well together.
Hands down the best sushi you can find in Boston.Alex (chef, owner, host) is super passionate about bringing you the best quality sushi you can find!! His combinations for nigiri are unparalleled. Also quick and high quality for take out. We were originally reluctant because we couldn’t make a reservation online but Alex was fast to seat us and it’s never been a problem to get served quickly. We are happy to have this as our new regular sushi restaurant and consider Alex a good friend. Highly recommend!!
I... was not impressed. Bizarre. There was obviously a lot of effort and technique put into the food here, but I don't think anything really left an impression. The premise of this place is to be "less pretentious and more authentic", and the shirts say "More Sushi, Less Drama", and that phrasing stuff actually kind of irritated me. If this place were unpretentious and authentic, it would be like Avana Sushi in Boston back in the day, where a single chef served you the best sushi you've ever eaten on styrofoam plates next to a cell phone kiosk. This is just a really upscale place that looks more like a wine tasting joint inside.All that said, I did not hate the food by any means. It was all alright. Worth like $300? No, absolutely not. If your net worth is in the seven digits? Money is meaningless to you anyway, so have at it.Overall this place does accomplish its actual goals though: serving beautiful, instagram-worthy food and impressing bougie white people.
