Sushi Cup is my go to when I'm craving a little poke bowl or sushi. It's close to my place and the service and consistency of a bowl or roll is always the same. I usually opt for a build your own bowl. I love a good spicy anything (tuna or salmon) but my first visit left my mouth on fire. I have now learned since to just order a regular type of fish with all of the fixings. Overall I do enjoy the freshness and the fast service at Sushi Cup.

I was searching for a new spot close to home and stumbled upon Sushi Cup. It's in a strip of businesses and I had been down that block approximately 942 times but never noticed it. I met a friend for lunch today (thank goodness.) They have a small patio out front which wold be good for people watching in warm weather. The spot inside is super small and has very limited seating, 3 tables and a small bar for eating. We were greeted warmly and I ordered the Maui poke bowl. It was a bowl of deliciousness! Chunks of fresh salmon, rice, greens, avocado and a few other tasty things I couldn't even identify but it didn't stop me from scarfing it down in a hurry. My meal and diet coke was about $13 before tip. I will definitely be back to try everything else on the menu. So good!

First time visit and it is definitely a returning visit kinda place if ya know what I mean! I didn't even know this place existed, but looked it up on and saw it was in my neighborhood so I had to give it a go. I don't eat sushi all the time, just every now and again. This place has the prettiest and brightest sushi! I will say not only does the sushi taste delicious, it was also very photogenic haha. I would recommend my favorite on the menu which was the Bomb Shell. You honestly can't go wrong with any of the selections on the menu...so eat til your little heart, or stomach is content:) They even have a little outside sitting area that you can bring your pups to on a nice day and have them hang while you enjoy your food and people watch! Definitely. Will. Be. Back!

Very few seats and all high tops so if more than 4 people expect to dine here beware. The owner and mom are very patient and nice. Not open a year yet. The poke bowl was fresh n tasty. The seaweed burrito was same. Miso soup and purple rice very nice. We'll be back for more .

Went to Sushi Cup for the first time today and the food is spectacular. The service is fast, food is fresh, the staff super friendly, and the price is right for everything on the menu. Today I had the Unagi bowl and added crab salad plus shrimp tempura. I am definitely going to be a regular at this restaurant since it is super healthy and close to my home.
