Sushi Station

The price is very affordable. Staff are extremely nice and helpful, and works quickly and efficiently. The sushi pieces just seemed very tiny and wished they would make every piece bigger

Love this place! They offer a variety of items and provide a fun atmosphere to bring friends that are trying sushi for the first time.

The concept of the conveyer belts with the sushi on it is a really cool idea, and the service is really good too, most of the times I’ve been there have been nice experiences, the only reason I’d give this place a 4 is because the sushi is just okay, not very impressive or exceptionally delicious. For the sushi tasting mediocre, some rolls are kind of pricey, but other than the sushi quality, I love this place!

First time and enjoyed choosing our own plates from the conveyor swirling by our table. The quality was good. Not great but not bad. Freshly made sushi and lots of variety. But, have to wait a long time for one you want as several others pass by twice. It was a fun lunch for a Saturday with the family.

Excellent place to enjoy some sushi. My girlfriend loves to go out for sushi and this is our first choice to splurge on sushi. I will definitely be returning here.

My husband and I enjoy coming here without the kids. It’s nice, clean and fresh. It has both the conveyor belt food offerings and sit down tables to order through wait staff. Pretty basic sushi restaurant.

Had absolutely horrible service tonight from the seating (placed right next to a loud family when there were tons of open spots, told no when we tried to move down a seat) to waiting about 10 min to be seen to order drinks (oh sorry didnt see you there!) and had to remind waitress TWICE for order as she kept forgetting to put the orders in. Food was good once obtained thus the 2 star. If this was our 1^st visit we’d never return based on service.

BEWARE: THEIR ONLINE MENU AND PRICING =/​= IN STORE MENU AND PRICING. (as of 5÷3÷2016)
Overall, Sushi Station has quite a bit going for it. Fast, tasty food, great wait staff, and a nice décor. I have been only twice and let me say, the first time was stellar. The second visit… not so much.
I ordered the Cajun Roll and it says online (2pcs) $ 2.25 and then when the bill comes it says $ 4.50 (3pcs). I bring this to the attention of my great server, Chris, and I show him the online menu to dispute the price. He goes to his manager (some lady in black standing around) and talks to her, then comes back and says that that’s for the 2 pieces, and I had 3. I told him that’s fine, and asked if they would be willing to split the difference ($ 1.13) and he goes back and tries to negotiate on my behalf. The Manager tells them to tell me that I need to pay closer attention as «Prices and ingredients are subject to change without prior notice.». Needless to say, at this point, I’m pretty peeved.
While I understand the card the manager played and realize she’s well within her rights to point to that line, it doesn’t instill any sense of loyalty in me to come back to here. Good customer service would dictate that you would accommodate the customer, but there was none of that from the manager. They explained that their host/​web content manager didn’t update the site on a regular basis. I told them that in the digital age, where people check an online menu before coming in, they should probably get on that. I will not be returning for the foreseeable future until this is remedied.
I will say, one of the staff members in white pulled me aside and really apologized to me and I told him I’d be writing this review. He was super nice.
Staff is great, management staff… not so much.

This is my all time favorite sushi place! They are amazing and so is the food!

This is a must stop for me anytime I’m passing between Janesville, WI and Chicago, IL.
The best part is that even though something is not coming out on the conveyor, you can always order it off the menu. That way you don’t feel like you’re fighting, or you have to eat fast.

My daughters and I recently had our second visit to this restaurant, and we fully intend to make this one of our «go-​to» dinner spots.
I am not a sushi expert, so I will not attempt to critique the finer culinary details of the menu items themselves. that said, the menu offers a wide variety of raw and cooked choices, as well as a nice selection of appetizers to go along with the sushi. Of the latter, w have tried the Udon soup, calamari, fried mushrooms, and fried shumai (shrimp dumplings) — all were fantastic.
The sushi can be ordered by the roll, or selected in 2 — 6 piece servings from the covered conveyor belt which passes each table; we chose to pick and choose from the rotating variety. Each type of sushi, side dish, or dessert that passes by is preceded by a sign explaining what it is for easy identification (a huge bonus for sushi newbies like me). I lost track of the numerous items we sampled, but I can say that all were fresh, well-​presented, and very tasty.
The wide variety of small portions is one of my favorite features — it gives a chance to try lots of different things without committing to an entire roll (unless you choose to from the menu). The pricing structure for the belt items is quite simple as well — each plate is color-​coded, and each color has a price. they count up your plates at the end (along with whatever menu items you may have ordered), and bill accordingly.
The restaurant was very clean, well-​laid out, and has a contemporary and comfortable atmosphere. Service both times we went was wonderful — shout out to our latest server Sarah, who is professional, attentive, and very pleasant :)

Was told over the phone 30 minutes for take out.
Order took over 2 hours to get ready. No apologies or reason from management. Arrogant manager

Made to order rolls where great! Rolls Taken off the conveyor only ok… I would go back and order my rolls off the menu. Had the same roll both ways, off the menu they were great. Good prices…

This sushi is about the same level of quality as grocery store sushi. It isn’t extremely pricey though which was nice, but in retrospect, I wish I had passed on it. The presentation was nice but the rolls were mostly available with filler (imitation crab, cucumber — think grocery store). The shrimp tempura roll was the biggest disappointment as they contained little to no shrimp and actually used the tempura itself as an ingredient — it was really salty as well. The staff seemed nice and the go-​around-​sushi was fun to see. But meh. The only thing that was nice was I was fairly positive I would not get sick because 1. I’ve never gotten sick off of sushi anyway and 2. they probably go through a ton of product.

If you are looking for a top of the line sushi dinner, this is not your place and this is not your environment.
However, If you are looking for a fun, casual, family-​friendly dinner to try a variety of small sushi plates, Sushi Station is a great start!
First, this restaurant is based off their conveyer belt technology, where the food travels around the restaurant covered in a refrigerated tube. A variety of food will wiz past you, and they are priced based on the plate color. As you eat the dishes and stack up the plates, you will be billed accordingly.
You also have the option to order off the menu. The menu has slightly larger rolls and hot foods. I always get a small salad and edamame.
The serve staff is very attentive and very quick to seat you, refill your drinks it bring you a check.
It’s a fun and easy experience. There always seems to be new roll creations to try. My favorite is the station roll, made with crab.

I went back. I won’t do take out anymore that much is still true. But I had a pleasant dining in experience.
I sat in for lunch had 4 pc of California, 2 pieces of dream roll, and 4 pc of phili. An appetizer of garlic roasted mushrooms. My server was super sweet and I think in training due to the other server kinda watching over her. But she was on it!
The service side was awesome! That has never been a complaint for me. The quality of the fish they use is another matter. I just stayed away from things I knew to be lackluster.
Tilapia is not sushi grade fish. It is merely a way to cut costs. I’m just mad because the rainbow roll is my favorite and I get it at any sushi place I go to except here because of said tilapia.
I will continue to come in from time to time and sit in for lunch or something like that but the amount of money I used to spend with friends and family $ 30-​$ 50 has now shrunk to the $ 14-​$ 15.

Sushi Station is my sister and her family’s go to restaurant. They just love the friendly staff and how attentive they are. They know the servers and are awfully helpful.
My nephew knows Kirk, Chase, Shane, Sarah and Destiny.
Now, the most important thing. Their sushis and sashimis are very good and fresh. There’s a variety to choose from or you can order from the menu.
Desserts are also good.
Parking is available.
I definitely recommend this restaurant.

I’ve been to sushi places in other cities with the conveyor belt system (and one even had a moat/​little river of sushi boats!) but never actually sat at the counter to enjoy the experience. I was missing out! It’s fun and a nice way to enjoy a variety without committing to a huge roll. Plus you get to see everything and view all the many options before committing to eat it.
All the items on the conveyor are clearly marked and list the ingredients as well, but the menus are also there and handy if you wear glasses or can’t read the signs going by fast enough. There are also charts at each seat indicating price levels of the different color-​codes plates. Was it the best sushi we’ve ever had? No. But was it good? Absolutely! We felt everything we selected was fresh and tasted good. They even have quite a few desserts to choose from and we enjoyed the Kushi Dango for our dessert choice (2 little skewers of mochi, 1 skewer was a green herb mochi w/​red bean paste on top & the other skewer was a plain mochi w/​sweet soy syrup) — a bit challenging to get the sticky sweets off the skewers but quite tasty!
Our server was Chase and I would be remiss if I did not mention what an excellent job he did! Just the right mix of friendly & helpful, explaining the process since we were newbies to Sushi Station & offering suggestions as we went along, asking how we liked certain items, etc. Our beverages of soda and water were regularly refilled as well. Overall we enjoyed it and will be back to try other items. It was $ 30 before tip for the 2 of us (I think we tried 6 items/​plates in all, including the dessert), which is a steal considering where we normally go for sushi it would be a bill of at least $ 50, if not $ 70. Granted, they aren’t the same atmosphere or quality but Sushi Station was darned good in my book!

Okay, shame on me. I gave Sushi Station another try. The quality of the product has gotten worse. The picture confirms they’re barely putting any fish in these sushi rolls. This Alaskan roll looks more like a California roll. Where’s the fish?

I didn’t love it. And I’m not sure what exactly this says about me. Sure there were some highlights… Like the shrimp appetizer I ordered off the menu. Or the glasses that were refilled regularly. Or that we controlled the pace of our meal. Beyond that, I was not planning my next visit here before we left.
The food is priced according to the color of each plate. And while there are many price points, trying two bites for $ 5 doesn’t seem worth it to me. What if I don’t like it? My hubby on the other hand was in heaven! He just grabbed what he likes, stacked up his plates and made a dent in the weekly food budget. Somehow I thought this would be a reasonable meal. It wasn’t. We were there at the end of lunch and right before dinner items started rolling out, so the selection wasn’t great. I would probably try it one more time, but I would choose either lunch or dinner time and not roll in during the 3−4pm hours.
