Same Sushi 423 West 300 South, Salt Lake City, UT 84101

"We were very hopeful about the food here because there are quite a few great reviews. We ordered 5 sushi rolls, miso soup, and a house salad. The sushi was pretty average tasting for the price. The miso soup was the saltiest (and worst) miso soup I've ever tasted. I did like the dressing on the salad. The building is a little difficult to find if you aren't familiar with the area. The bathrooms don't match the rest of the restaurant - they definitely need some cleaning and updating. It was also extremely stuffy and hot throughout the entire building. The service was very slow. There were maybe two other occupied tables during our time here. Our server sat near the front counter on her phone or tablet most of the time. After we were done eating, we had to walk up to her to ask for boxes and the check because she was so distracted. If you haven't been to a fantastic sushi restaurant before, you might find this restaurant checks all your boxes. However, if you have high expectations, find another restaurant."

"The ambiance is nice and cozy, but not sweet-feeling. The sushi was predictable in a good way; for example, rainbow roll was a good rainbow roll, Seaweed salad was a regular, though fresh and yummy, seaweed salad. We don’t have anything mind-blowing, but this place is a solid choice for sushi downtown!"

"Out of the way place. Next to hotel but the storefront is not easy to spot off the main street. Rather nice interior with sports on 3 TV screens. Alcohol is served. Surprised they did not have takoyaki. Had the salmon teriyaki bento box. Good value. Close to the park."

"I always thought there were 5 types of sushi: mind-blowing, good but served at very trendy place so its over-priced beyond belief, standard/fine, fear-of-getting-sick, and grocery store level (ok when very hungry and potentially is pasturized like the raw oysters at Hooters). I have never had this type of sushi: looked great, checked all the boxes, omakase option, special fish, chef creations, and then tasted like nothing. The rice tasted like nothing even, it was all bland. Even the hamachi with jalapeños app. We left a lot of food. Great price on sake. Quality of fish and portions all looked great. Oyster shooters not what i expected, it is a chopped up oyster. The server was the sushi chef, he was great, friendly and very knowledgeable about the dishes, but as you can imagine having him cover the floor is difficult for the process: greeting table, taking order, checking on other table, then going to make the food... It wasn't busy when we went. I suspected the owners were there talking at a table with someone,; they did not even stir to assist chef with serving even after their guest left or glance at any of the tables. A different person had arrived to cash us out by the end. It was just disappointing."

"Same Sushi has a wonderful environment and sushi is served uniquely on a cut wooden block. The food was very delicious with reasonable prices. Their signature rolls were around $13 as the other more common rolls were around $9-$11 For the dessert we tried their deep fried cheesecake. I will say although it was still good, I would much prefer just a good ol’ regular cheesecake."
