I Love Sushi on Lake Bellevue

Hidden gem with a serene view, sushi bar, and covered patio serving authentic Japanese cuisine. Fish tasted fresh and there is huge variety on the menu. We got the rainbow roll, paradise roll, and seared spicy salmon roll, which were all delicious. Will definitely be back!

What stood out most about this sushi spot is the unique variety of fish they have. These are the nigiri rolls that I tried: Kue Suzuki Katsuo Zuke blue gin chutoro Madai snapper Overall, the sushi was decent, the presentation was great, and sushi was prepared with care. However, the fish was just a tad over seasoned for me. This restaurant is situated by Lake Bellevue, so view is really nice. We sat at the bar - the sushi chef and servers were friendly and service is quick. I think this is a good sushi spot if you’re in the area, but I probably wouldn’t go out of my way to eat here.

The best Chirashi in Seattle area. The taste is the closest to what we had in Japan. Sushi and rolls are also very tasty. Everything is super fresh and tastes different (in a good way) from other Japanese places in the area.

I had meant to try I Love Sushi for at least 15 years. A month ago, I did. I’ve now been back for my third meal and it is now my favorite restaurant. If you are alone or in a small group, the sushi bar is fantastic. The food is always exceptional.

Lunch at I love sushi Bellevue it's always me and my friend group's favorite. We always get the black cod gozen which comes with a little bit of ever you thing without breaking the bank. Fish is high quality and highly to recommend it! The black cod combo comes with some kozara, miso soup, salad, tempura, sashimi, black cod and which is great for those who'd like to try out everything! Highly recommend to book in advance to secure a tablem

Delicious food with artistic flair! Nice presentation & great service. The terriyaki dinner set was very good 👍 Highly recommend 👌 Good view of the lake too!

Sublime sushi spot in Bellevue! This is a true local gem, and seems like a go-to for the local Japanese population. The whole experience reminded me of dining in Tokyo. And wow a the fish was so fresh and excellent. Every last bite!

Our go to place for Japanese food. Food and service are consistently exceptional! Their location and ambience could be better.

True japanese cooking and flavors. One of the best in the area. We eat in and do take out. Always a treat.

Excellent food and nice atmosphere! Service is good, it's always busy. I recommend a reservation.

Upon entry, we were greeted and given warm disposable handwashing packets to clean our hands. This is the place if you're looking for an authentic Omakase experience! The Chef prepped and explained each piece of sushi, piece by piece! Omakase is $60 for 10 Nigeri pieces. This is not your average Sushi restaurant serving traditional fish. We sat at the sushi bar; the Chef was knowledgeable! We prefer I love Sushi over Shiro's Kashiba. Shocking, right? I ordered the Black Cod Gozan. The miso seasoning did not overpower the fish. We recommend this place!!

Pretty good sushi spot, especially on the east side. Prices are a bit higher, but that is expected in Bellevue. Portions are fair with rolls, sashimi, and nigiri. Everything I've tried so far has been fresh and delicious too! Only downside is it can sometimes take a while to get your food. I've noticed this the last few times of going. Server is typically hard to track down for refills. Space is large and open though. Lots of different seating for smaller and larger parties. Good for families.

Came with a reservation for two and got omakase and an additional platter. Sushi was good overall, but we definitely felt like we missed out doing omakase at a table instead of at the sushi bar. We asked to be seated at the bar (which was empty) but were told we could only sit at a table. The omakase at a table is just two plates of nigiri plus soup and a few small salads. The omakase at the bar is served more traditionally one course at a time, and they get hand rolls and other things that those at a table don't get. Sushi bar does cost a little more, but it seems like it's worth it. I'd recommend getting sushi for sure, probably at the bar. I would skip the green tea ice cream though. It's a nice sized scoop, but seriously lacks in flavor.

Sushi was okay. Our seating area was dirty, with peeling paint and dirt/food on the wall next to our table. Unfortunately, I ordered Anmitsu for dessert (which was supposed to be ice cream with agar jelly, mochi, and red bean paste - per their menu). The waitress handed out ice cream with fruit and a drizzle of chocolate syrup. When I informed her of the mistake, she told me I read the menu wrong and that she'd given me the correct dessert. Went online when we got home to double-check because I didn't want to spend my time there arguing about ice cream. The dessert I got was not what was ordered at all. I understand if they were out of ingredients, but to try and convince me I read the menu wrong instead of communicating that?? Bad service.

Came by for dinner and the 4 of us ate a lot of sushi! Technically this is a waterfront location but it is on the tiniest lake I have ever seen! Had a nice meal though and would come back. Workers were very friendly and attentive to us. This is not a high end sushi restaurant, but not cheap either - something in the middle. If you live in the area this is a pretty good local spot to scratch that sushi itch, just isn't anything memorable or special.

My mom used to take me to I Love Sushi 20 years ago at their old location in Bellevue but hadn't been back until this past month to celebrate my birthday. We made reservations for dinner on a Sunday for 7pm. They were quite busy as even with reservations, they didn't have enough staff to tend to the check-in counter and so we waited for 15 minutes before being seated. I Love Sushi is obviously known for their sushi and so their menu is mostly just rolls, nigiri, and sashimi. However, they have a small selection of hot entrees including udon and curry. We ordered the NABEYAKI UDON, PLATINUM SUSHI PLATTER, GRILLED SALMON BELLY SET, DRAGON ROLL, and RAINBOW ROLL. The NABEYAKI UDON was just alright but didn't have a lot of toppings. It had an egg, a mushroom, some fish cake, seaweed, and one tempura shrimp. The broth was pretty salty and so I didn't drink much of it. It was nice and hot for a cold fall day at least. The PLATINUM SUSHI PLATTER (+ $120) was fantastic and had a great variety of tuna, salmon, squid, shrimp, sea urchin (uni), and Ikura (salmon roe). You can tell that the fish they use is of very high quality. It came with 22 pieces of sushi which is supposedly enough for 2 people. The uni was absolutely amazing and super rich and fresh. The GRILLED SALMON BELLY SET was also wonderful. The salmon belly is rich and fatty and melts in your mouth. The salmon skin is extremely crispy and oily- I would 100% get this again. You can get the salmon on its own or get it as a set (+$5) which comes with a side of miso soup, salad, and rice. The DRAGON ROLL (8 pieces) was a great change of flavor from the rest of the meal as it was both sweet and savory due to the unagi sauce. It had eel, cucumber, and avocado. The RAINBOW ROLL (also 8 pieces) and is my favorite roll to get at Japanese restaurants, had thick slices of salmon, tuna, shrimp, and avocado wrapped around a California Roll. It was absolute perfection. Lastly, our waiter gave us free dessert for my birthday which was a CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM MOCHI in whipped cream. You can tell that they let the mochi sit at room temperature for a little bit so that the inside is just a little thicker than soft serve ice cream. It was a great ending to an amazing dinner. Once we were seated, service was great. Our waiter, Alex, was extremely friendly and attentive. He came by several times to refill our tea and water, clear our plates, and check in to see how we were doing. He even sang Happy Birthday with my family when I brought out dessert- so kudos to him for making my birthday dinner a memorable experience! As far as atmosphere, the interior honestly did not match the high prices and high quality of food. The inside was fairly dark and needs a new paint job and carpet. It's definitely not a fancy restaurant by any means, but the menu prices state otherwise. You do get a view of the manmade Lake Bellevue and they have outdoor seating under a plastic tarp, probably from Covid. Overall: 5/5 for food, 5/5 for service, 3/5 for atmosphere

Whoa what a cute place on the water! Got dinner here with my work dad dentist hahaha. We were down the street from one another and had some catching up to do. Service is great! Food was delicious! I thought Dr was going to take me to this food hall he was talking about but he took me to sushi. We ordered an assortment of nigiri's and they were so good! I really enjoyed the chawanmushi even though I hate the taste of shiitake mushroom. Ate it anyways, it was so warm and comforting. Lots of crab meat hidden inside the warm, velvety eggs. Quality of the fish were fresh and I'll definitely be back!!

This upscale sushi restaurant is located in Bellevue. Parking is available, and the view of the water is very nice. Service is very good, especially when clearing plates. The bento box is very filling, combining cooked and uncooked items. Bathrooms are very clean and maintained. This is a good find at this location.

I didn't know what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. There was a good variety of items on the menu and everything was very tasty and fresh. It wasn't super crowded or busy so it was easy to get a table as well, and there's a view of lake Bellevue.

I love this place! Came here on a weekday for lunch. We were seated right away. Prices are super reasonable these days. We each got the sushi lunch for $15. Came with a salad, miso soup, six pieces of nigiri sushi, and a whole either California or spicy tuna roll. We also got the tempura for appetizer. Everything came out quickly and was fresh. It was perfectly filling. We loved everything and will definitely be coming back. I've been searching for a homey, affordable japanese place and am done searching!! This is it. Parking lot out front, be careful of signage in parts of the lot where you might get towed. Good service. Clean restaurant.

was looking for sushi on google and this place came up. sooo glad we went here. this place has been around close to 40 years. it's right on lake bellevue (a very small lake in... well... bellevue). the outside looks like it should be in an actual marina. the inside is nothing super fancy but it is nice! the service is good, we had a sweet and attentive waitress. we started with some salmon sashimi which hit the spot. it was soft and fresh, sliced perfectly -- not to mention the presentation was very cute. after that we had two rolls, the lobster roll and the caterpillar roll (eel). both were delicious, especially the lobster roll with the sauce that is given on the side! the only problem i had was that both rolls seemed to fall apart very easily, which made it a little difficult, but that isn't a huge deal to me because they tasted so, so good. for dessert, we had the soufflé cheesecake which came with ice cream and fruit. the cake was so fluffy; when it was paired with the ice cream and fruit it was even better. if you are in bellevue and want some good sushi, head over here.

What stood out most about this sushi spot is the unique variety of fish they have. These are the nigiri rolls that I tried: Kue Suzuki Katsuo Zuke blue gin chutoro Madai snapper Overall, the sushi was decent, the presentation was great, and sushi was prepared with care. However, the fish was just a tad over seasoned for me. This restaurant is situated by Lake Bellevue, so view is really nice. We sat at the bar - the sushi chef and servers were friendly and service is quick. I think this is a good sushi spot if you're in the area, but I probably wouldn't go out of my way to eat here.

really yummy sushi spot on lake bellevue!! so many fun lunch combos you can get for lunch. all the fish was really fresh, however there was an eel nigiri that tasted really fishy to me. i think this is a good place to come for special occasions, but it's definitely a lot more expensive than some other sushi restaurants.

ordered online here and the sushi was delicious and did not disappoint!! On the pricier side but I guess it makes sense because the fish tastes fresh compared to other places. Haven't tried dining in yet, so that is next on the list!

I like the location by the water. The restaurant had a warm atmosphere inside, and there were lots of people dining when we were there and I felt like that the tables were kind of close together. I had a family dinner here around 6pm. Our server was professional and nice, but didn't see him much during our dinner. We ordered edamame, tempura udon, premium sushi set, and other sushi assortments. We also ordered separate sushi for takeout. The foods were average, not bad but not super great. Later when we were eating our takeout sushi, we found a piece of hair in one of our sushi. It was unfortunate!

Nice Japanese restaurant with warm atmosphere that serves tasty sushi. I think they do a better job with their raw items than their kitchen cooked items. Wish the server was more attentive and came by to give water refills. Ordered the following: Tempura assortment (2 pieces of shrimp and 5 kinds of vegetables) - tasty, fried well Deluxe sushi assortment (fatty tuna, tuna, yellowtail, salmon, sea bream, sweet shrimp, scallop, sea urchin, salmon roe, and tuna roll) - sushi was fresh and delicious, favorites in the assortment were the sea bream and scallop Chicken teriyaki - sauce was good, chicken tasted a bit undercooked, entree came out cold Chicken Yakitori - assortment of chicken meatballs, skin, heart, gizzard and wing; not very flavorful, some items were under salted while other items were over salted Tempura ice cream - delicious, ice cream has a nice pound cake and crunchy tempura crust If I do come back, I would stick to the sushi, sashimi, and tempura items and skip the grilled items.

The review is based on the food only. The establishment itself is pretty old and stuffy and could use a nice update. The food on the other hand is wonderful. Everything is very fresh and flavorful!

Went here for the first time last Friday after work. We were able to get a seat at 5:30pm or so, but the host did mention they were fully booked later that evening. I would recommend getting a reservation if possible. For the food, we ordered the geoduck and clam appetizer, a chirashi bowl, an I Love Kaiseki set, and the jalapeno bomber roll. I loved the chirashi bowl and thought the fish quality was excellent for the price and the rice was perfectly seasoned. The reason I knocked off a star though is because the other things were just okay. My partner did not really like the Kaiseki set. I would say stick to sashimi/nigiri here instead. We thought the service was good and the waiter was attentive. Only thing I'd add is - I wish the restaurant had a bit of music as it was eerily quiet.

I love I love sushi on lake Bellevue! They have the most variety of fish I've seen for this price range in the states. It's a pretty big restaurant that's on a small lake. We came in on a Thursday night about an hour before they closed. There was a bunch of people sitting at the bar chatting which gave a very chill relaxed vibe. We were greeted and sat immediately. We ordered 2 dinner sets: 1 deluxe sushi assortment and 1 sashimi assortment. They both come with miso soup and salad. I wanted a Manila clam miso soup instead of the regular one, and our server Alex was able to replace the set's soup with the clam one. Shoutout to him for doing that! The salad was good, pretty basic. The Manila clam miso soup was yummy, clams were fresh and sweet. The sushi and sashimi were the star obviously. The sashimi set came with extra fat slices of tuna and salmon. The fish itself also tasted fresh and of good quality. Considering the price and quantity, it was super well worth and we left super full. Would definitely come again to try all the other delicious sounding dishes on their menu!

We found this place tucked behind a mercedes benz dealership. This place is huge inside and has nice spacious seating. The nice sushi chef greeted us as we sat down. We got the platinum platter for 2 and the tino roll. The roll was great - it was unique and had an ample amount of fish in the roll 3.75/5 The platinum platter had good sushi rice but most of the fish was lacking in quality 3/5 Overall the food is decently priced and the sushi is solid. 3.5/5 but Ill round up to 4/5 because of the service.

What a wonderful place set on top of a cute lake in Bellevue! Came by to celebrate new jobs and had a wonderful time. Our server was elegant and attentive, and treated us with quiet respect. I was surprised at how delicately he set everything down and took everything away! The omakase itself was delicious. The clam miso soup was a great starter and the fish itself was extremely fresh and beautiful. I've never had uni before but our friend who's had it in Japan gave it its compliments, and it was truly delish. Definitely on my list of restaurants to frequent with fellow sushi lovers now! Yay!

Can't comment on their sushi. We used to eat here and at the ISushi on Lake Union when they had same owners. Bellevue location is much nicer than it used to be and prob has a great view but we went at night so too dark. Server was good - esp w/the table full of business men sitting next to us. Decent food, good service, nice ambiance. Will go back for lunch to try the sushi.

Good food Fair price Beautiful view This restaurant checked off most of my boxes when dining out. 6 rolls, 2 hand rolls, 2 sets of salmon sashimi, 2 nigiri, 3 miso soups, a pitcher of beer, and a coke was $222. The food was phenomenal and the prices were more than fair for a restaurant over the water in Bellevue. We went at 6:30p on a Sunday night for dinner as a party of 6, surprisingly there wasn't a wait time, we got to sit out on the patio, which I definitely recommend! The only thing that I would say is the service was slacking a bit. We got waters after we finished all of our food. We got the miso soup after we finished all our food and a kind reminder. Otherwise! A decent spot for sushi without unnecessarily breaking the bank!

One of my all time favorites! The seared tasting menu is my go-to for a quick and delicious lunch. I cannot say enough good things about I LOVE SUSHI. GO! GO OFTEN! MAKE FRIENDS. EAT SUSHI!

The location was great, lake facing :) good ambience as well The drinks were okayish. Lychee martini was tooooo sweet, it was like drinking sugar syrup. The sushi's were good, the fish was quite fresh!

This place is a hidden gem in Bellevue for sushi. It's located behind the Mercedes dealership and is a little hidden. It is very unassuming but has a nice little view of little Lake Bellevue! Also, it is owned by a Japanese man, so you know it will be authentic sushi! The servers are always great here and very nice and professional! The sushi is very good quality and they have a lot of great lunch specials and bento combinations! Everything tastes fresh and delicious. For dessert I highly recommend their tempura ice cream. It is to die for! Thank me later!

DO NOT GO HERE!! Worst customer service ever! Paid via credit card and this Restaurant charged me an unauthorized 20% tip to my bill in addition to the 15% tip that I had agreed to. Apparently they automatically add a 20 percent tip to groups of over 6 people but they never told me and when they preauthorized the credit card they only preauthorized the amount before the automatic gratuity making it even more confusing. All told they charged my credit card around 30 dollars more than the amount that I had agreed to on the "total" line of the credit card receipt and as such they essentially ended up giving themselves a 40 percent tip, which seems pretty shady and dishonest. I called them immediately after I discovered the unauthorized higher charge to my credit card and left them a voice mail and have received no response over 24 hours. Due to this deceptive practice, as of now I would not recommend this restaurant or come back again.

Foods were great. Sushi quality is good. They have interesting menus of daily specials. Nice and professional staffs provide decent service. Great place for sushi date. They also have lunch specials available.

Fresh sushi on lake Bellevue, tucked back near a few offices. Large menu with various combinations. We had the large nigiri platter for 2 and a supplemental toro sampler, miso soup and green tea. Green tea came out scorching hot. Everything was excellent. Sea urchin is always hit or miss for me but was on point here. Given that it's Bellevue and the quality of the fish, you'd expect it to be really expensive but it's actually reasonably priced.

I've been a few times here, in general it's good not expensive sushi. Today had a less than great experience, our waiter was busy serving other tables and forgot about one of our dishes. It took so long that we lost apetite and chose not to get dessert. A little sad for a good value restaurant.

1/11/2024 Dined in for my husband's birthday and he requested to have his dinner at I Love Sushi on Lake Bellevue. We wanted to eat at the sushi bar in front of Taka San, but the bar was fully booked. We are a big fan of this location and also ordered Osechi for New Year. I recommend to make a reservation if you want to eat at the sushi bar. We were sat the table behind the sushi bar, but the service was quick and attentive. My tea was never cold!!

The Lakeview from the outdoor covered patio was my favorite part of my lunch experience. Service was great, we ordered soon after sitting down and food came promptly. Unfortunately it wasn't the best sushi I've had. The salmon in the Salmon Don $24 was sliced too thin for my liking, and it tasted fishy. My friend enjoyed the Seared Salmon Roll ($18.5 - California roll with Seared Salmon on top) and the $9 clam sashimi from the Daily Special list.

Sushi omakase (chef's special) at the bar - 4.5/5. If you are into an authentic sushi Omakase in the east side, this is it! I've tried many sushi restaurants since I moved to WA 6 years ago, but this is still my favorite sushi omakase place in the east side. Takai by Kashiba is also amazing, but you will pay double for a very similar taste. So you judge whatever works for you. If you are in the Seattle side though, my favorites are still Taneda and Kashiba. Sushi Omakase at the table - 3.5/5. Sushi should be eaten immediately after it's made. So I don't like it when they serve everything at once. In my opinion, it's not worth paying that much if you are just going to eat at the table. Then just order cheaper sushi. They are going to be as good. Rest of food including regular sushi dinner - 4/5. I haven't had anything that wasn't good here. Everything is authentic and tasty. Drinks - 4/5. they have a good selection of drinks. Ambiance - 3.5/5. It's an old building, but it has somewhat a nice view as it stands on the man-made lake. Staff - 4/5. Always nice. I have not had a bad experience at all.

After Massasan left I have made the mistake of trying it again, but like today I always regret it. Omakase Nigiri 14pc seems ok until you eat it. Ignoring that it's half the thickness of typical nigiri, the fish was room temperature and the rice was both undercooked and low quality. I started having flashbacks of Todai - it was terrible If I could give this place a zero I would as no place I've been to in the last 14 years has been this terrible. Don't waste your money - go to Izumi (or really any place else) instead of here. Rumors of it being not that bad are false as of July 2023.

Good sushi place on Lake Bellevue (no idea that there was a Lake Bellevue!). Ordered some large dishes and every item was pretty tasty. The food was also served with a good green tea. Service was good otherwise, quick and out of the way for the meal, refilled tea. They were pretty quick to get our orders, the bento boxes were a bit slower than sushi rolls. We sat outside and it was so nice to sit outside! They have those greenhouse covers to the place so you don't get too much sun or wind or birds, but some nice fresh air. When craving a Japanese sushi meal I'd be back, the feel was so nice!

Excellent authentic japanese restaurant for the true quality japanese cuisines and top notch services. The True Japanese Cusines to go to in Eastside Seattle

This place is always popular. I came in at 11::30 am on Sunday just when they opened up. There is very few Japanese restaurants that open for Sunday lunch. In fact I only know this place. Many Japanese restaurants are closed on Sunday and Monday. I am glad their lunch menu is available on weekends as well. Very reasonable priced combo as shown on the menu. I picked I love sushi gozen that comes with a variety of items including nigiri and tempura. Tempura here is done right unlike other japanese restaurants. They are crispy and ligh, no extra batter as it should be. Miso soup done right with good flavor of dashi. Green tea is pretty mild but has some real tea flavor. Amazingly udon was pretty good. Again dashi done with perfect flavor. Love the little side dishes! Okra game and octopus sunomono and kinpira gobo. The dish came in fairly reasonable time maybe 15-20 minutes? I believe they fry tempura when they get the order.

Probably my new favorite, I've lived here for years but never checked it out. Their toro quality is excellent which is how I judge a sushi place. Their cocktails are delicious and strong, the fish presentation is great too! This was almost a 3 star review though just because of the service. When we were seated the waiter came up to us for the drink order, he didn't introduce himself, we didn't get water for a bit longer- no greetings, no introductions, not told about any specials or asked if we had questions about the menu, we certainly didn't feel welcome to be there. After ordering we were only checked on for giving us the check when we still wanted to order some more food. I'm willing to go back just because of the quality of the sushi but they need to work on their customer service.

Great sushi place with a nice view of the lake outside. It's tucked away in a business area, so it's a bit hard to find, but there's a lot of parking which is great and we were able to get in and out for lunch on a workday within an hour. I ordered two rolls, while my coworkers each ordered one of the gozen sets. We also got agedashi tofu to start, which was delicious! When I have more time, I'd want to come back and try out the chef's omakase set.

Love this place and could eat sushi everyday! This time we ordered Togo platter (see picture), quality of fresh fish/sashimi and the rolls were amazing. Picking up a Togo order was easy as we placed the order in advance via phone call. Staffs are always friendly and offered condiments for the takeout order. Overall, delicious mouthwatering sushi & quality of the fish is excellent even for a takeout. Bon appetite!

While the food was good, we were so upset with the service. We saw on Google and also verified through a phone call that the restaurant closed at 9 and arrived at 8:13. When we walked in it was empty and the host seemed incredibly hesitant to seat us. I asked if they were still open for service and said we could go elsewhere if not. They said they were and seated us. We were told as we placed our order that this was Final Call and we had to place our entire order then - which is fine. But the whole time we were there we felt incredibly unwelcome. There were many mean looks from the workers. Lots of mumbling and grumbling in our direction. We ordered and were served by 8:29 and had left the restaurant by 8:47. We ate and paid as quickly as we could. While the food was good, I will never go back.

Fantastic food and service as always. The salmon toro was delicious and worth the price! Quiet, peaceful setting perfect for catching up with friends and the servers were happy to let us take our time.

FOUND WORM-LIKE OBJECT IN SASHIMI I ordered the sashimi and tempura gozen, and when I picked up the first piece of tuna sashimi I found a small worm like thing poking out of the flesh. Tried to dig it out with chopsticks and it easily slid out to be an inch-long, white opaque WORM. Server was nice about it and instantly took it away which is why I wasn't able to take a photo of it. They then asked if I wanted them to re-make it but I declined and asked them to take it off the bill--they said they could. The server told me the chef said it was a piece of fish skin. Five minutes later, another server comes out and tells me it's part of the sinew that's hard to cut off--conflicting statements show that they're also not sure what it is, and I know I pulled it easily out of the tuna flesh with my chopsticks and it wasn't parallel to the grain like sinew is. At last, we received the bill and it turns out they refused to take it off or give a discount even though I didn't eat a single piece of the sashimi. I know eating raw fish comes with risks but this was honestly the final straw to not even accept your mistake / lack of attention to detail and still ask the customer to pay. I Love Sushi, I was so ready to be impressed with your views, the ambiance, and the friendliness of the servers but now this experience has left me a little traumatized.

This review is long overdue... I have been eating at I love sushi for 10+ years and have yet to have a negative experience. The quality of fish and authenticity of the sushi in general is unparalleled in Bellevue and the entire Seattle area. While the building is a bit run down and is located in quite a strange location (atop the man made lake Bellevue), it adds to the charm of this restaurant. I recommend I Love Sushi to everyone who asks about sushi in Bellevue. Lastly the service is always on point, some of the team has been working at I Love Sushi since we first started coming so many years ago. I couldn't recommend this place more!!!

Sushi is one of my favorite foods and I Love Sushi on Lake Bellevue is my all time favorite! It tastes very fresh and high quality and I haven't had anything from there that I didn't love! I also highly recommended their lychee martini. 10/10 would recommend overall.

Recommend reserving a table here as this is a popular spot! Great lakeside views if you get the right tables. They have some great combo plates if you don't want to just pick out items one at a time. The Tempura Gozen has a little bit of everything and the Bento Box is super!

I went here with my friends on a Sunday morning for lunch. The restaurant was in a really nice location and the food was really good. The server was really great as well. I got the tempura udon, and everything was really good. The udon & noodles were yummy and the tempura was crisp and crunchy. My friends all got sushi, and they seemed to like it. Our food came out really fast as well. Overall, the food was good, but not especially standout. Overall, the food was good but i would only go back if my friends wanted to go. I'm not the biggest fan of sushi and the non-sushi options were pretty limited. Water rating: 6/10
