Sushi Time

First Sushi spot Ive been to here in El Pso. My first time there was pretty good. I had Sunomono salad, Crunchy Spicy Tuna, Sushi Time, and another roll (can’t remember) with sweet Green Tea. It was all good. Just wish the spicy tuna was a bit more spicy (personal preference). That’s the only reason for 4 stars. I recommend this place!

If you look at the udon noodles section in the menu there’s only three options: chicken, tempura, or beef. With each option saying you get that with vegetables, thick noodles and soup. Well I’m used to tempura being tempura shrimp but in this case it was just tempura veggies. How does tempura veggies get priced the same as chicken?! Also, the udon broth is nothing like any of the udon soup I’ve had before. And when I was asked what I would like to drink, I asked for hot water. Don’t try to upsell me hot green tea. I saw your menu, and I asked for hot water. For a bowl like this, just watered down flavored udon soup, with noodles, slices of onions/​carrots for $ 10??! I’ll drive to Dragonfly for a Tonkatsu ramen which the broth is a lot more flavorful and satisfying. AND when I show up it was empty. That was a warning sign I should have taken up on! When I walk in, this man, maybe the owner or manager was just sitting at his table and just said hi. Didn’t know if I should take a seat or how did this work? I was not happy and only took two bites. Check please!

Sushi time is always good & you can’t beat the price & quantity. I never understood why it’s never busy I’m guessing the location but my roomies & I are here every week getting delicious rolls!

The sushi chef has to be new. Rolls were falling apart and tasted like the were unwrapped from the gas station. The waitress seemed like she was going to kill herself because she didn’t even smile once. Was very dissapointed.

Went to this place due to good reviews well it’s very disappointing that helpers would give this place 4 stars.
$ 9.99 lunch special for 3 rolls– cool! Well I get my plate and it’s hardly a rolls for the entire 3 rolls together. I mean seriously?!! Talk about false advertisement. I mean the rolls are okay not amazing but I felt like the portion sizes are for 5 year olds.
Hubby ordered 2 rolls and again, the roll is almost only as small as a quarter in diameter and sliced so thinly for $ 13.00 each!
Our lunch set us back $ 45 and I felt like I wanted to run to Costco and order the turkey sandwich as I was still starving.
Deff not coming back.

Not very impressed. Was expecting the 4 stars that they have on here and didn’t even come close. Maybe a 2.5 at best. First off they no longer do the sushi buffet that was advertised. The sushi rolls average about 11 or 12 dollars and are half the size of say sushi zen or even sushi place on post. The service is the bare basics mainly because the hostess is also the waitress for the whole restaurant. No refills, no asking if I wanted another sake, didn’t even ask how the meal was. I don’t mind paying for full priced sushi if I’m getting the full value.

Unbelievable! I was blown away when I took a bite of a roll I customize every sushi place I go (spicy tuna, salmon, cucumber, carrot and crunch) and been eating this roll all over the world and nation (I travel for work) at least once or twice if not more every month and I have to say this is one of, if not THE best sushi ever!
I highly recommend this place and will be back again anytime I’m in El Paso!

First time here, I’m in awe! I’ve had such a difficult time finding good sushi here In el paso, stumbled upon this place and sooooooo glad i did. Sashimi was great, rolls were delicious! Very quiet place, the chef will personally come out to ask how was the food, which in a restaurant i appreciate that. If you’re a sushi lover, try this place!

First time here for lunch hour and honestly the good is really good and well made. Though a little understaffed for the day, but it didn’t really matter.

Great sushi this is our new go to place for it. We have been to many all over El Paso and even though this one is farther away than most we think the extra miles is worth it. Exceptional chef asks if the food is alright and checks on his customers often. Biggest difference is the flavor of the sushi is outstanding. It really is a hidden gem will be bringing our friends and family back too.

This is our go-​to place for sushi in El Paso after trying many others. They no longer serve buffet style, but that is in your favor– lovely, fresh-​tasting sushi! Service is always excellent and with a smile. The sushi chef always comes over and asks us is everything was to our liking, which is always is.
Highly recommend the excellent lunch deal they have going– you will not find a better price on great tasting sushi anywhere! $ 9 or $ 10 for two or three rolls of sushi and soup! (That is not per roll, but total price for lunch deals!)
We also like their gyoza as well as their tempura appetizers. YUM!
We go back any chance we get. :-)

Wasn’t busy, but was delicious! The rolls are smaller, but there’s a lot of them. They’re good for bit size. We had the Tonkatsu, Golden California roll, and the Metropolitan roll. This place definitely hit the spot and we will be coming back. Good service and kind waitress.

I finally made my first trip to Sushi Time, and I was not disappointed. I went later at night, and decided to order sushi to go. The hostess was very helpful, and friendly. The chef was also very polite, and welcoming. The atmosphere was great. The price of my roll was similar to any other place I’ve been, and tasted just how I like it. The size was perfect, and didn’t have too much of one ingredient (like rice). The buffet for dinner seems a bit pricey for me, but I’ll be checking it out for lunch some time soon!

Maybe it’s an El Paso thing but I’ve never payed first before sitting down to eat at a buffet. The food is poor quality and servings small (yeah it’s a buffet I get it). The servers were courteous but if you’re looking for sushi avoid the place!

If you’re looking for a place to have sushi for lunch, I highly recommend the Sushi Time buffet, they have a good selection of great tasting sushi rolls on the buffet in addition to a few hot dishes at a great price!
I tried most of the rolls on the lunch buffet and liked all of them (the ones I didn’t try were for personal preference), don’t expect anything fancy, but they get the basics right. You can complement them with chicken teriyaki or other hot items from the buffet, though there’s only about 5 or 6 hot dishes, which were okay.
Food aside, the restaurant has a nice, casual atmosphere, and both the hostess and sushi chef were amicable.
I’m hesitant to come here for dinner, however, as the dinner buffet is more expensive and while naturally I would expect more from it, I’m not sure where that would go and for about $ 5 more than the dinner price here I can go to nearby Tokyo House. Still, for lunch, it’s a terrific sushi joint!

Prior to going to Sushi Time, Kee’s Teriyaki has always been my go to for sushi in El Paso (and I still love Kee’s, but it is definitely out of the way for me). Sushi Time is a buffet, serving the rolls you would expect and ones you’ve never tried.
One of my biggest pet peeves is having sushi prepared by someone who has only been trained in house to make it, but doesn’t frequently eat sushi. Usually when that happens, the rolls are too large, have too much rice or not enough, and the ingredients aren’t at the right temperature. I’m so happy to report that Sushi Time’s Chef knows exactly what he’s doing. The rolls are bite sized and portioned correctly. I think I tried just about every roll that was put out and each and every single one was delicious. The sushi buffet is a bit small, but I actually appreciate that because then I know each roll is fresh (you’ll see them being prepared as each roll disappears). You can also order off their sushi menu, which is included in the purchase of the buffet (but like any other sushi buffet, you must finish the rolls before ordering more… this avoids a person ordering five rolls, but only eating four pieces). I loved that the sushi rolls ranged from typical to fried or even topped in Panko. They also offered a couple of different sauces which I loved (you have to try the Sweet and Spicy if you’re a fan of Siracha).
There are a few other items available like Gyoza (Pot-​stickers/​Fried Wontons). Everything I tried tasted fresh and hand-​made which I think is very different for a buffet (even a small one) because most buffets cut corners any way they can. They also had a small dessert section that I wasn’t impressed by. However, I didn’t go to a sushi buffet for dessert which is why I didn’t let that affect ST’s score.
From the pictures you can see that the ST has a clean, cut look to it with a touch of class. The walls are lined with red seating (basically open booths) and the rest of the tables have black, modern seating. The lighting is composed of crystal chandeliers which somehow gave off the perfect amount of lighting. It’s a pretty open floor plan.
Service is what I’d expect, friendly and fast. So no complaints in that department.
I will definitely be choosing Sushi Time over all the other sushi places in the Stonehaven area.

The sushi is great. You can either order rolls individually or you can purchase the buffet (which allows you to order rolls with no extra charge as well). For two people we paid around $ 38 including tax for 2 buffets and two drinks. You do the math ($ 19± per person including tax). That seems steep but it’s not when you consider how much sushi you can eat and the fact that you can order any roll off of the menu at no extra cost. The sushi bar may look small but they have a large variety of sushi and fried goodies like gyoza and fried sweet potatoes as well.
And this may not matter to some, but it matters to me… being half Korean myself I was pleasantly surprised to find out that this business is Korean owned. They play k-​pop and other Korean music inside of the restaurant which adds a pretty cool vibe.
The only reason I’m giving this place a 4 star review is because they don’t have a great selection of desserts. Now I know what you’re thinking… «but you went there for sushi… who cares about dessert?» My problem is that if I’m paying for a buffet I want the whole eating experience. They had chips ahoy cookies and little cream puffs out on display to put things in to perspective. They don’t have to make their own desserts but if they’re going to buy them then they might as well buy something good.
Last thing I will say is that this place is much better than Tokyo grill house. It’s cheaper in price, fresher in taste and an overall better experience.
