I've eaten here many times before. But have you changed your chef? Edamame overcooked, not crunchy. Miso Salmon quite unlike previous times I've ordered it - overcooked and lacking flavour. And, a Japanese restaurant that doesn't have Tempura on the menu! I won't be coming back any time soon.

Honestly, is there a better Japanese restaurant in Sydney? Zushi delivers flawless food over and over and over again, which is probably why I've been here over 30 times. It's impossible to go to a sushi train after this place - be warned. My only complaint.. you took away the sticky date!
Zushi - Surry HillsResponded on 19 May 2025
Hi Alexis, Thank you so much for the amazing review — 30+ visits?!That honestly means so much to us. We're so happy to hear you’ve been enjoying the food consistently.

The lovely unseasonably warm end-of-Easter-holiday evening made dinner outside in the courtyard very pleasant. Oysters with chili ponzu and salmon roe were small but beautifully presented. The special tuna sashimi was again small but delicious. Rolls here, like veggie crunch are, by contrast, quite large. Unlike many other Japanese restaurants it is impossible to order your own sushi by the piece. I ordered a 6 piece nigiri combo but not every piece was a winner. I’d love to just drop in a grab a seat at the counter and order sushi by the piece with a glass of wine on a weeknight but the menu limits that option. A smaller wagyu option like they used to serve would be welcome as well as the only cut available was 450 grams which is too much for one, especially when dining with a vegetarian.
Zushi - Surry HillsResponded on 28 April 2025
Hi Paul, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such thoughtful feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the atmosphere in our courtyard and appreciated the presentation and flavors of our dishes like the oysters and tuna sashimi. We understand your points regarding portion sizes and the current menu limitations. Your suggestions about offering sushi by the piece is very valuable—these are things we’ll definitely take into consideration as we look at how we can improve the dining experience for all our guests. We truly appreciate your support and hope to welcome you back soon!
