Sushi Fanatics in Oosterparkbuurt

Didn't meet my expectations. It's an average sushi restaurant like every other average sushi restaurant in Amsterdam, just more expensive. Sushi rice was less than average, salmon and tuna was good.

Closes earlier. I ordered at 21:30 and now suddenly the kitchen is closed at 21:15, it is not mentioned anywhere

I had a great experience here! Everything I ordered was high quality and perfectly prepared. The sushi was fresh, rich in flavor and beautifully presented. The salmon nigiri and the sushi rolls with salmon eggs particularly stood out - you can really taste the freshness of the fish. The matcha was also a pleasant surprise: full, creamy and authentic in taste, something you rarely get. I also ordered the marinated chicken – super tender, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. A delicious addition to sushi and highly recommended for those looking for some variety. Sushi Fanatics fully deserves its name. Here you come for real quality and love for Japanese food. I'll definitely be back!

Very good sushi! Service is amazing! I was just missing a miso soup :) recommendation to add it

What a lovely place to dine alone 💕 The side dishes were an absolute dream!! highly recommend

The sushi was indeed very good. The fish quality was excellent, someone paid lots of attention to selecting the right fish. The rice was japanese or very similar, which is rare to find, as lots of sushi places use low quality rice. Overall very good sushi. We had the sushi mix, recommended. They also have impressive sake selection. The sitting upstairs was a bit too basic, one long table shared with other people, like in a cheap eatery. The sitting downstairs was cute.

It's expensive, but it's good to be able to eat sushi of this quality outside of Japan. Because it's not just imitation sushi. It was takeaway 🥡, but scanning the QR code to order was a bit of a hassle.

This is my best sushi place on earth! After so many countries, woah, this is the best. And matcha 💚 and I almost don’t want to tell anyone about matcha tart how good it is, so that it’s not sold out 🤭 and we also stayed for dinner once, I love the low-keyness of the place, yet very authentic.

When you are ordering drinks, it takes so long and missing this and that , not the quality we expect with the price we pay

Very small shop, the tables outside are very old and wobble extremely, which meant my soy sauce didn't stay in the bowl... 🙃 The food was good, although my tempura shrimp arrived lukewarm. The menu (at least the QR code version) is also quite confusing, or there are simply no simple descriptions for most of the dishes.

Great sushi, huge selection of saké and good quick service and friendly staff. Also liked the style of the place, it has a nice authentic vibe.

If I’m craving sushi, this is where I go! I have been here like 4 times and it’s always so good! The fish is super fresh and they are not stingy with it.

We had high expectations for this place but were disappointed. The chicken gyozas and the dragon roll were great. Try them for sure. But for the prices they are asking the sushi is just ok. The Crazy Tuna roll was so chewy we could not eat it. Not recommended. We left it on the table. See photo. And the yellow tail nigiri was rubbery and also not nice. The warm saki came cold. ? They call themselves “sushi fanatics” but there was little that felt like anyone here was being fanatical about making great. Also, it’s quite expensive. We paid 135 euros for three of us for a late lunch, and to be honest we didn’t order that much. We won’t be back.

Food was good nothing to say about that but making you pay for tap water is just not ok

I had a reservation for one, but when I arrived, I was told I’d have to share a table with three strangers. This was never mentioned when I booked. I found it completely unprofessional and uncomfortable, so I decided not to dine there at all. Really messy management and poor communication—won’t be coming back. in het kantonees: 我book 咗一位，去到叫我同3個唔識嘅搭枱，訂位嗰陣完全冇講。問店員點部署，同我講今日好full，大佬關我撚事？三個店員成碌木咁企喺reception，你眼望我眼唔知做咩。餐廳細唔係你管理混亂嘅原因，嬲到走咗，再見再也不見 edited 5/2/2025, cant find a place to respond to owners reply When I was there , I was informed that the tables were standard square 4-person tables, not a shared tatami-style setting like in izakayas. If I had been told otherwise, I would have taken that into consideration or requested a different arrangement. It was never communicated to me that the seating would involve sharing space in such a way. Additionally, I must disagree with your description of my behavior. At no point was I rude—I remained calm, polite, and spoke respectfully to your staff throughout the interaction, I respectfully and quitely leave the restaurant. I truly don’t understand why such a claim was made, If your team felt I was being rude, I would appreciate knowing specifically what I said or did that was interpreted that way, or provide evidence of that. Also, if the restaurant was already fully booked, as you mentioned, customers should not be able to make a reservation through your website. That is entirely the restaurant’s responsibility, and it caused avoidable frustration. It’s unfair to blame the customer for issues arising from your own booking system.

The best sushi in the city ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fresh fish, def nice! It is an experience to dine in though. You're seated at one big table where everyone is seated. Would recommend take away.

The waitress stared me down as I waited by the door until I realized she was not going to acknowledge me unless I walked up to her. She then seated my father and I in the corner. She showed no emotion as we wondered out loud how we would get into our seats with the neighboring table an inch away from ours. I suppose it was our problem and not hers. You order through a QR code on the table which really made service nonexistent. The nigiri was decent but was nothing to write home about. The maki rolls were worse. I would not think about coming back here to dine again unless I want to be glared at by some twenty-something year old.

The food is the best part about this place. The quality of the sushi is really high, with fresh fish and quite some variety of options. The food and the place both feel very authentic and I will definitely be coming back.

The price quality is quite good here so we often come to enjoy our toro roll!

Vrey nice sushi! Only recommendation would be to serve the fish on nigiri slightly colder, especially for fatty tuna.

the best sushi in europe, asian approved wow and service was amazing

Very cute! sushi is delicious and fresh.. did not really like chicken though! Service was okay.

Same owner of Shigure and Ikkoku, affordable sushi, we had a today special and it was really tasty, definitely recommended.

Fantastically good sushi! So fresh and delicious!

The boy found it, and it was very nice.

We come here regularly and take out as well. Great quality. I absolutely love the Hojicha Nama chocolate ❤️

Buying sushi two times per month, best sushi ever, really recommend and will continue to there, really sushi fanatics, fish are best quality

Yummy, and fresh sushi But sitting is not comfortable, tables are too closed. QR code order, no free WiFi, not convenient Sorry no next time

ABSOLUTELY ENJOYED IT. Been really struggling to find a good sushi place in Amsterdam (that is not a takeaway shop or a super expensive omakase restaurant), and this place is such a gem. Fresh and good quality sushi, but still reasonably priced. We received very friendly and attentive service (Ayami was the sweetest), and also enjoyed the cosy ambience on the tatami mats upstairs!

Delicious sushi in unassuming place. People ordered coffee and shared tables outside. But the sushi, rice and Wasabi were top notch. You order by QR code and enter what you want. Nice selection of sake and other Japanese spirits.

Amazing sushi. A bit cold there in winter.

Great great place with very fresh fish and tasty assortment. Love the fact they explain to beginners how to eat sushi and how to differentiate different wasabi!

Great place to having lunch and only dinning table and chairs were uncomfortable,;((

Sorry, but I don't understand how everyone is so enthusiastic about this. Sushi is not freshly made. The Nori was never crispy once, just wet every time. Once and never again.

The food exceeded our expectations! Those sushi were so good 👍🏼👍🏼🥹 I just forgot to take pictures because plates went empty very quick 🤣

Just wow. Excellent food, service & atmosphere. Go here!

First time for me to eat such a good and delicious sushi meal 👍🤩👋🤣😂

Very good, fresh sushi! I also liked the seating a lot, just like in Japan 😊

All the Nigiri are so delicious! The hot matcha was only warm though 😅

Food is high quality, fresh, delicious, good portions. From my opinion maybe a bit too high prices. Place is cozy and nice, but definitely should pay more attention to staff, and their aprouch to clients.

As a sushi lover, I can say this is an authentic Japanese restaurant. I was a little disappointed when I first arrived because my husband and I were sitted by the entertance of the restaurant. There were a few tiny tables and the stools were uncomfortable. I asked if we could be sitted inside, but they said I had to indicate that when we made a reservation. Next time, I'll ask to be sitted by the sushi bar. You scan a QR code and order your food. The food comes out pretty fast. They have a good selection of sake as well. When you make a reservation, it would be helpful of the restaurant would explain different types of sittings.

Very tasty sushi. However, the selection for vegetarians is very small and disappointing. Nigiri with cucumber, nigiri with avocado, Japanese egg and vegetarian gyooza. That's about it.

Cosy place ; excellent sushi/food/sake selection ; the table downstairs can get disturbed by food pickup/delivery ; however upstairs seating is not on chairs but on mat so it can be challenging I still recommend

Great sushi, okay tempura. Worth to try!!!

Cozy cafe and restaurant with quality matcha & sushi! I absolutely loved my meal and would definitely come back again.

Delicious, it is cold downstairs because of the door

🚨 Valentine’s Nightmare 🚨 What was supposed to be a romantic sushi night turned into chaos, hunger, and a waste of a lot of time & money! We had a 2-hour reservation, but after 1.5 hours of waiting (and two rounds of drinks), we asked and were told our food order NEVER went through—even though our drinks from the same order arrived immediately?.. No staff even questioned why we had no food as they brought our second round of drinks with 75% of our time already gone. And it wasn’t just us—everyone in the restaurant was getting nervous, having waited over an hour with no food. It was clear the place couldn’t handle the business. We booked a month in advance, they knew it was a fully booked holiday, yet no one got their food on time—and they were still doing takeaway orders! 😩 When we demanded a full deposit refund, they refused. Instead, they still charged €12 for hojicha but graciously skipped our second-round Coke (which my partner desperately ordered because he was getting lightheaded from low blood sugar) and the tiny 80-cent glass of tap water. We could’ve argued longer, but every wasted minute meant more Amsterdam parking fees down the drain. The manager was nowhere to be found on this busy holiday, and at some point, they even stopped answering their staff’s desperate calls. After another 25 minutes of waiting, we got back €8 in a pile of heavy small change—and left starving, frustrated, and with a ruined/no Valentine’s dinner. The waitress was laughing happily at the bar with her colleagues and eating gyoza though :) ⚠️ Would NOT recommend. Absolute disaster.

Valentines Day Disaster – Left Starving & Completely Disappointed ⚠️ If you want frustration, hunger, and regret instead of a romantic dinner, this is the place. Absolute chaos. • 6:00 PM reservation. Arrived 5:55 PM, seated on time. • Ordered at 6:08 PM. No WiFi, service was awful. • Drinks came in 10 min. A hojicha (€11), a Coke (€3.50), and a cup of filtered tap water (€0.80). • Waited 90 MINUTES. No food. Nothing. Just us staring at an empty table. No waiter checked upon us. • Asked a waiter – our order NEVER even reached the kitchen. 🤯 Manager’s “solution”? • Remove the Coke + water from the bill. Wow. • If we reordered, another 30-40 min wait – but hey, free sake (which I couldn’t drink because I was driving). Other tables were leaving too. Even getting our deposit refunded took 20 more minutes. 🚨 Final damage: ✅ €15 wasted on parking ✅ €11 down the drain for hojicha ✅ €20 spent elsewhere just to actually eat ✅ A ruined Valentine’s Day ⚠️ This place crumbled under the pressure of a busy night. If you value your time, money, or relationship, go anywhere else. 🚩

2nd round the scallop nigiri tasted and smelled quite bad. The moment I put it in my mouth, literally had to spit it out in a napkin. My bf came to the bar and told the waitress, they seemed to be surprised hearing that, said gonna check and come back with an explanation. Around 10 mins later, one of the waitresses came and spoke Dutch to my bf (I don’t speak Dutch), loosely translation she said she checked with the kitchen and there is nothing wrong with the scallops, it tasted and smelled different is because of different suppliers! The waitress just shook her head and said no, there was nothing wrong, just different suppliers different taste and smell. I am disappointed with the rotten scallop but people can make mistakes, as long as you fix it and own up to it. However I give 1 star because of the waitress’s attitude and extremely unprofessional. Not even one apology to us as well as the waitresses ignoring all the complaints from us and justifying it with “different suppliers different taste and smell” explaination.

I really liked it. Quality food. The service could be improved. The place is very informal but friendly.

Very tasty! Very kind service. A bit unusual to order via QR code for a European restaurant but actually really convenient :-) Seating is a bit packed but ok.

Amazing sushi place with a traditional atmosphere and rolls that are worth the money, especially the Crazy Tuna maki was incredible.

One of the best restaurants in Amsterdam to get a really fresh Sushi. 🍣 My recommendation is to try the Baka Salmon roll and the Rainbow dragon maki. Everything is just so fresh ⭐ I'd recommend booking a table in advance.

The matcha latte is so good and authentic like in Japan with strong matcha flavours (unlike the usual European matcha latte) and the matcha tart is so rich But sushi is normal, not very special

Best sushi place in amsterdam!! Never disappoint

Good but shared table is not friendly for my long legs. Don’t know how Dutch people sit inside.

Best a la carte sushi in netherlands, price quality wise really worth it.

One of the best sushi in town (for take away)

Matcha was full of lumps, had a giant fish scale in my otoro. Unagi was mediocre / got what looked like leftover cuts in my donburi. Otherwise tasty sushi however.

Average sushi, matcha latte was good. Friendly staff.

Great chef with poor sevrice as always

Sushi was amazing, however the service and restaurant experience leave a lot to be desired. I really wish a place revolving so around sushi would serve some miso soup but that was missing from the menu. Coffee was also not served there. The restaurant is also really really cold now in the winter. It doesn't help that the seating downstairs is located right next to door that is constantly opened for take-away service. It also doesn't help that the seating isn't very comfortable or very accessible. Lastly the staff were friendly but seemed quite aloof, and the phone ordering system is in my opinion a bit gimmicky for the money that you pay. Again the food was great but I will likely not return due to the sub-par restaurant experience. It's unfortunate to see such nice food be held back by a gimmicky restaurant concept.

Amazing Nigiri! The otoro and chutoro are so delicious! Great service and atmosphere!

The sushi was very good and made with fresh fish. The price is fair for the quality that is delivered. It is definitely a place I would visit again.

Food is amazing as always, just a bit complaint about the service. We had to ask three times for cutleries and napkins, cause they either ran out in the drawer or wasn’t provided (for dessert). Would be nice to have them restock in time and provided when serving the food to avoid the waiting time in between.

So fresh and authentic! 😱😍 Most authentic sushi in Amsterdam!

Tatami seating which was fun. Order on an app so very fast. fish was so fresh and delicious.

Good sushi. Fast service. Prices a little high. Easy booking

Excellent sushi - great quality and incredibly fresh. Phenomenal value - rare to find such great sushi at such an approachable price point.

Wow! We really enjoyed every sushi we ordered, high quality fresh fish. We'll be back! Friendly staff

Fantastic sushi! Extremely fresh fish and sushi made the tradicional way.

TL;DR: Some really good, unique menu items, but because of value for money and service won't be going back. They clearly understand good sushi, it's unlike the "westernized" sushi that you see at SUMO or such, but it must be mentioned that the prices definitely match. Unfortunately we received chicken karage that was raw and cold inside and didn't receive any discount/offer for drink on the house or such, just a new dish. Generally very understanding but raw chicken is one where the 'apology' didn't match the 'crime'. It was also a shame to hear the staff talk badly about another customer that left, since it's a pretty quiet atmosphere you can pretty much hear everything.

One of the best sushi in Amsterdam 🍣 Very good quality at satisfactory prices! Great variety on the menu! All fresh!

Good nigiris. Matcha tart a great way to close

Really fresh fish with perfectly seasoned sushi rice. Friendly service and casual, easy vibe.

Visited today with a friend of mine. Have to say, it is without doubt, the best sushi you can find in Amsterdam! Great food and even better service. Definitly becoming a sushi fanatic with their sushi being so fantastic😉

I really enjoy the sushi here. While it doesn’t quite compare to what I’ve experienced in Japan, for Amsterdam, this is a very good sushi spot. However, the service leaves much to be desired. I’ve been here at least 9-12 times, and every single time I’ve asked for extra wasabi and ginger, my request was forgotten. I had to repeat myself, and in the end, I was charged for the extra wasabi and ginger. It took me a long time to write this review because I do believe the chefs do an excellent job preparing the sushi. Unfortunately, the service staff often seems unaware of customers and can come across as unfriendly. That being said, on my last visit, a girl (who I believe was a native English speaker) provided great service—she was attentive and friendly, a nice contrast to the rest of the team who never seem ready to offer an excellent customer service experience. Additionally, they never automatically offer tap water—you always have to ask for it! As for pricing, the sushi is reasonably priced, but the drinks are extremely overpriced, which may be linked to the high cost of matcha. Overall, despite its ups and downs, I believe this sushi place offers some of the best sushi in Amsterdam and has become my go-to spot for sushi in the city.

The sushi is completely frozen and pre-made, which is equivalent to the level of Huajiyu sushi. The price is totally not worth it.

The nigiri’s are by far the best I've ever had! the fish is incredibly fresh, and the balance between the fish and rice is just perfect. Every bite was a delight, and you can tell they put real care into the preparation. What also stood out were their matcha drinks and desserts. If you're a fan of matcha, you'll love their selection. The matcha desserts were the perfect sweet finish to an already amazing meal. Great food, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere. I'll definitely be coming back!

I highly recommend this restaurant! The menu has plenty of types of sushi! Every piece is absolutely delicious! The best sake l’ve ever had was here!

Ordered sushi for €125, more than double the price compared to a delivery chain. If the quality had been like that: completely fine. But it was very mediocre. Absolute quality 3/5: - the tuna maki had soft nori (not fresh) - overcooked rice without bite at the rolls The toro - both the nigiri and the very tuna rolls - is by far the lowest quality fatty tuna we have ever eaten: almost skinny and with membranes that should have been cut away. Instead of a treat to celebrate something, this almost became a gallows meal, as the expensive poor quality dampened our mood. Due to the high price for the mediocre quality a 2.

After all the rave reviews we had to try this restaurant! We got a table upstairs at a zataku (low Japanese table), which was a nice authentic experience. However, keep in mind that for taller people, like my friend, it may become a little less comfortable after a while. The staff was friendly, but not very involved, which I missed. You can easily call them via your telephone. The sushi was absolutely fantastic! Every bite was fresh and the fish literally melted in your mouth. Definitely the best sushi I've ever had! Highly recommended: the Baka Salmon. A small disappointment was that at the Nigiri Sushi Moriawase we were not given any explanation about which types of fish were on the nigiri, so we sometimes did not know what we were eating. But all in all a wonderful experience and definitely worth it!

Delicious Super fresh and authentic For the real sushi lover

We stopped for lunch, the sushi is decent but not the best, it's à la carte so you tend to spend a little, two of us spent €50. Service a little slow. Nice atmosphere but I recommend booking to get a comfortable table.

One of the good sushi’s we have tried so far in the Netherlands / Amsterdam. We came here few times and was not disappointed! If I have to mention something, it would be the service. The waiters were mostly cold and unwelcoming, making the dining experience really uncomfortable. The customer sitting next to us was waiting at the table 15 min+ without any menu, and eventualy we shared our menu with them. It was also dissapoiting that our edamame was served rather undercooked. There is a room for a lot more improvement, but the sushi was exeptional. I hope for future improvement! :)

Delicious nigiris in a small space near the small bar, also possible to sit outside when the weather is nice. The fish is fresh

We were a bigger group who Just wanted to share, But when we asked the staff to put together something for six people they couldn’t so we had to pick and choose. The variety is not that big in Terms of kaburamaki. It’s like they were only specialized in nigiri. Mediocre sushi.

Increíble auténtica experiencia gastronómica. No para almorzar con un presupuesto, pero tampoco irrazonable. Personal muy amable.

Amazing sushi with great texture and fresh fish. Matcha drink is delicious too. Hard to find this legit sushi anywhere

The kinda sushi restaurant Amsterdam has been waiting for 🙏

I’ve been a regular of Sushi fanatics for a while now and I’ve continued to come back for the quality of the food. However, I came for late lunch around 3pm today on a Sunday and the service was particularly poor. The current staff working seemed young, inexperienced, and disorganized. The sushi was solid but the service tainted the experience. It’s a pity because I’ve loved coming here in the past, hopefully this was a one off and that the service will improve again

The quality of the sushi was high and I was satisfied. The atmosphere of the shop was also decorated like an old Japanese house, which was nice.

Just good, very expensive and there was a lot of raw tuna in the crazy tuna. A bit overkill.

Good sushi, good quality, friendly staff! :)

Good sushi good staff overall great experience would definitely recommend the matcha

Absolute 10. The place is cute, the service fast and charming. Premium quality sushi, the best Otoro Tuna Nigiri I have ever tasted. It is located in a very quiet residential neighborhood near a park. Recommended.

One of the best sushi in Amsterdam for price/quality. I order here once per month and it never disappoints. The texture of the fish is as it should be, the rice is not cold but at temperature, the have a lot of different varieties of seafood and the price is very reasonable. I highly recommend.

Best sushi in Amsterdam, fresh and you can taste it. Unlike other sushi places.

A very nice place with very nice staff. Speed of service was great. Value of money, the quality of the sushi was excellent. It’s clean and comfortable as well
