Sapa

This is my new favorite sushi place in the SLC area. Everything I had here was amazing, including the staff. Their main menu is digital, but if you want a physical one, just ask and they'll give you one. Also, if you go Mon-Thurs from 5-6:30pm, the sushi (plus several starters) is all you can eat. Definitely the best option. But regular hours or all you can eat hours, I will be returning many more times.

Our food was really good but our server Sarah was outstanding. She gave us some great recommendations from a food perspective. Even better after finding out we are from Australia, she gave use some great suggestions on were to visit as well. The firecracker calamari was very tasty along with the large combo sushimi. I would definitely recommend this place for people wanting a tasty Japanese meal and amazing customer service.

Wow, what an amazing place this is! We just happened upon this Asian Fusion restaurant while out exploring Salt Lake City. A really nicely decorated place with actual imported Tea Rooms in the wonderful garden area. The food was as excellent as the decor, with a wide variety of options that catered to the wide ranging tastes of our group of 6 (from 16 up). Our meal cost $170, and we ordered plenty. Highly, highly recommend

We got here at at 4:57pm on a Friday and took the last parking spot. They opened the doors at 5pm and were seated and we got our food very quickly. Amazing service! I highly recommend the Filet Mignon on the fried rice, it was so good. The pieces of steak had great juicy flavor in each bite, the green beans were great, and the fried rice was top tier! The two sushi rolls we got were the Imperial and the Dinero. Both were phenomenal. Our favorite was the Dinero, it came out warm and deep fried and the cream cheese added delicious creaminess to it. Best sushi I have had in Utah! We will be back! Service was great! We didn’t have to wait for anything, we were in and out within an hour.

Really good sushi. We had a Vegas roll, Black mountain, and Playboy. All were great. We also had a Gyoza appetizer. Great stop for a good bite.

I will net get over how far down hill this place has gone the food is completely disgusting low quality fish and the service is so slow and all I asked for a a spicy tuna roll with no rice seaweed wrap and they brought out the most nastiest tuna I’ve ever tried not in a roll in like I asked but a cone which I explicitly said I didn’t want but they already messed it up the first time and this was they’re second time remaking it so I just tried to eat it but it was so nasty I couldn’t even swallow it and then they said they sent able to make a spicy tuna roll with no rice well here’s an example of the simple thing I asked for but this plate is from SOYS sushi. It’s a pretty simple order the fact that they couldn’t get it right is crazy to me. Just got to soys instead honestly right up the street from Sapa and so much better.

Had a great experience at Sapa. The lamb sauté bento box really impressed--huge portion for just $18, and the lamb was coated in a flavorful, rich sauce with just the right amount of heat. The salad on the side was crisp and refreshing, especially with the light, citrusy dressing that balanced out the meal nicely. We also shared the calamari, which was a standout. Super crispy with a light, airy batter, and the dipping sauce had a sweet and sour blend that had a subtle Southeast Asian vibe--really addictive. It came out hot and fresh, and the portion was generous. The sashimi plate was beautifully presented and tasted just as fresh as it looked. The sauce on the side was unique--not something I've tried before, but it complemented the fish in a really cool way. Definitely better quality sashimi than what I've seen at most other spots around SLC. Service was attentive and friendly throughout, and we only waited about 5-10 minutes for a table, even on a busy lunch. Overall, Sapa delivered on both flavor and value. Solid spot if you're craving Japanese or fusion in the area.

Loved the atmosphere of the old buildings joined together under a new roof. The food and service were tremendous. Our sushi was so amazing - would love to come back again.

I don't know how I haven't been here before. So fresh, so tasty, so crunchy .. went there with my friends a couple weeks ago and it was so delicious.. I got there right at 5pm when they opened.. it was a little bit of wait but it went fast and smooth.. they have a bar area for 21+ and a full restaurant with a patio.. our waitress was awesome, food came out hot and fresh.. sushi roll are so tasty and so it's the filet mignon and rice!! Definitely need to make back there soon..

Updated: I have now been here several times and am ready to share some of my all time faves, the things we keep going back for. My personal tastes and those of my friends will be included, as we have come together several times and tastes and interests vary. Jake, our waiter, has been here since our first visit, and we were lucky enough to have him again on this most recent visit. My favorite dish overall is the Massaman Beef! It is packed with many textures and flavors and sits in the most beautiful massaman broth. I also enjoy the Volcano, Dinero and Lucky 7 Sushi. Each is unique, but quality made. My friends enjoy and keep coming back for the Filet Mignon entree and Vegas roll. They have quick service, so don't let the line turn you away. You won't regret visiting here.

Food and drink selection was outstanding--everything we ordered was genuinely delicious. Prices were reasonable, and the atmosphere was modern and beautiful, with great indoor and outdoor seating options. Service was excellent from the moment we walked in until we left. I brought my parents here while they were visiting, and they absolutely loved it. Definitely a perfect spot to bring out-of-towners!

This place is hands down one of the best restaurants in the Salt Lake Valley for sushi and food in general. I now compare sushi places to Sapa and is my go to spot for any special occasion. The imperial roll is easily my favorite roll they have. And for those who arent fans of fish or sushi, they also have great teriyaki steak and fried rice or just basic garlic noodles are also great. The service is always good and attentive and very nice. The place feels like a nice casual place to go. And they have a ton of seating so unless you have a big party.l, you shouldn't be waiting too long.

I would call this sushi spot a speakeasy sushi location because it is slightly difficult to find where the door is. Then, when you walk in, it is surprisingly very large with multiple rooms! Each room had a different vibe, some more colorful and some more lounge-y, but all of them, very cozy and comfortable. The staff was also so kind and attentive! Next the food...amazing. The garlic noodles were so savory and umami forward, we couldn't stop eating them. The pork dumplings were so fresh and tasty! Also, the two sushi rolls we got were perfect because one was light and then other was heavier. They balanced each other nicely and were so delicious! Lastly, they made an amazing Gimlet! I will definitely be going back when I am in Salt Lkae City again.

We have come here multiple times, and usually have a great experience. I would be giving our experience this time a 1 star if it wasn't good the times before. The fish on one of our rolls tasted old and was browning. The other 3 were fine. The reason for my negative reviews is our waiter. I have gone through and read multiple negative reviews about him specifically .. blonde, mid 30s guy. My husband put in an 18% tip, and he so blatantly rolled his eyes in disgust, it was so rude. Since when is an 18% tip bad? Especially when the service wasn't even great? Really disappointing.

Forgot to take pictures of the rest of our food because everything was delicious. The lychee martini is divine and all their drinks are reasonably priced!! I didn't love the calamari, seemed random, had random deep fried jalapeños

One thing I didn't love was finding the place. While the building is quite big, you have to really look to find the sign on the building. Then, when you walk in, it's still not immediately clear you are in the right place. You walk into a small room, with a sliding door. When you walk through the sliding door, you then find the front desk and are seated Decor wise, I've never been to Japan, but I certainly get the vibe it would be something like this. This is the most incredible sushi restaurant I've ever been to There is TON of seating, and it looks like they may even serve people outside in good weather. The service was also great. Our server really knew the menu and was able to suggest rolls based on what kind of fish or taste we were feeling. He also ensured our drinks were constantly filled and was even super quick to clean off garbage (like straw wrappers) nearly the moment I put it on the table. The sushi however, was just okay. Perhaps by design, I found the rolls lacking in the flavor department, and the nigiri was quite thin with rice that was a little dry. None of it was bad by any means, but I'd probably put it in the middle of the pack compared to other sushi I've had. Despite this, for the atmosphere and service alone, I am excited to come back soon

Showed up with no reservations for Valentine's Day weekend. After about 45 minutes we were given a table. We ordered two rolls, drunken noodles and the filet appetizer which were all delicious. We also tried a different appetizer that did not meet expectations and we returned that with no hassle. The playlist this night was amazing and I made sure to compliment the waitstaff who was responsible. Fair amount of seating and well lit.

Great food and great atmosphere! Good service too. My friend and I went bc we heard it was good and we were not disappointed. We got a the filet mignon appetizer and a couple rolls and everything was delicious! I had the "short notice" cocktail and it was pretty tasty. 100% recommend this place!

Sapa! Everyone loves sapa, they have such delicious options for sushi since they have every option you could imagine! My boyfriend only eats vegetarian sushi and sapa has the best options for that. Try their lychee martini it's incredible! My favorite is the Low Ryder roll, and the E brooklyn, also their banana curry is incredible! The service is always stellar your appetizers come out insanely fast and are always a hit. The outdoor seating is a must on a summer night it's gorgeous.

We ordered four different sushi rolls and they all had so much flavor and were so fresh! We ordered the Philly, Vegas, Samurai, and Imperial roll. Our favorite was the Vegas roll! We sat in the back patio and it was perfect in the shade. Our waitress was great and kept our water glasses full throughout our dinner.

Anyone else go to a restaurant a dozen times and never Yelp because they assume everyone knows how amazing it is!? That's me, but I'm finally going to give you my two cents. Everything I've ever put in my mouth from Sapa has been delicious! So order whatever sounds good and you won't be disappointed. Today we ordered the kamakazi, lucky 7, dragon fly, black dragon, volcano, and Sapa roll...I think. Hard to keep track. Rolls are beautiful, flavorful and unique. The ambiance is stellar. Service is rough sometimes because they are so busy. Our waiter forgot us a little today.

I love sushi and crave it often. I decided to give this place a try and it didn't disappoint at all. The sushi was filling and delicious. I loved the sauce on the rolls.

This place was awesome! It gets dark earlier this time of year so the door in can be easy to miss but the experience was wonderful! We were a little pressed for time and were seated right away. We told our server we were ready and that we were a bit pressed for time and she was great about accommodating our timeline! The food: We ordered edamame to start and it was excellent! I ordered: - salmon sashimi - sake Maki - gluten free Blazing Jazz without the crispy fried shallots due to a shared frier so there is cross contamination My friend ordered: - Samurai - and one other I can't remember. All the food was EXCELLENT! The fish was very fresh and again our server was phenomenal. She noticed that we were missing dishes before we had to tell her and our water glasses were always full. I would absolutely come here again.

I was craving sushi and Sapa was in the area. Craving satisfied! There are tons of options to choose from - sashimi, nigiri, hand roll, maki, simple rolls or specialty rolls and many more. It was a little bit of menu overload, but in a good way. The service could have been a lot better, considering that my friend I was eating with got all of his food 10 minutes before I got mine so I told him to go ahead and start eating. It was also confusing as to who our waiter was, as we never got a full introduction and several people had brought us drinks and food throughout the meal. At least we were able to get seated in two minutes from walking in the door.

This place has always had great sushi, this time I came the place was full so the food did took longer than usual but it was worth the wait.

Take out sushi always sounds like a bad idea, unless you're coming to Sapa. I've had take out here a number of times and it's always consistent and quite good. Getting good sushi in a landlocked state like Utah is a tough ask but Sapa delivers. I have tried a number of rolls and have always been satisfied. I've had the fried jalapeños, which were a bit bland and the calamari which was oddly sweet. Despite the appetizers failing to live up to the hype, the rolls make up for it. I have not had the opportunity to eat here in person so I can't comment on the service though the place is always packed which is surely a good sign that they're doing something right. It's on my list of places to dine in, but for those looking for take-out, look no further!

I have been to Sapa many times. I've ordered edamame every time, but never the Spicy Edamame cause I don't like spice. This time, I was dared to try the Spicy Edamame. Wow! It's not spicy at all but rich with a teriyaki glaze flavor that is incredible!! I can't believe I missed out for all this time. So good. I also enjoyed their sushi rolls. They are all very good. My go to rolls are the Sunset and Vegas. But I'll take a dare to try a different one! Service is always fast and the atmosphere is perfect.

We're new to the area and visited here for our first date night and everything was amazing. Our server Christine was completely transparent and provided the best recommendations. We ordered a noodle dish, sushi, a salad and one cocktail! The food tasted fresh and full of flavor! The atmosphere was relaxed and beautiful! The teamwork amongst employees was incredible! Prices were affordable! I think this is the first restaurant I never asked for a refill in and my water was always full and I drink a lot! Overall it was a great experience, would definitely recommend !

Love Sapa! I recently tried this sushi place out with friends and we loved every roll we tried! There is live music on the weekends and the whole place has such a fun vibe to it. Parking can be tricky because it's downtown but we usually find parking on a nearby side street. The service is great and we felt welcome while we dined at Sapa. I would recommend this spot if you enjoy great sushi

Sashimi the way it should be. Went for a business lunch, it was incredible. WARNING Don not miss the pay parking signs in the lot next door, they will ticket you fast

First time here and it did not disappoint. The service is quick and our waiter was very kind and he took great care of us. The imperial and volcano roll were my favorite. I also loved the ufo. Everything was very fresh and high quality. The spicy edamame was delicious and the potstickers were big, juicy, and actually homemade. They were so tasty. I highly recommend Sapa!

This was my first time visiting Sapa Sushi, though the ladies I was with had been here before--last time was 10 years ago! The place is huge, and when we arrived and checked in, it only took about 10 minutes. I thought there might be a long wait, but we were seated quickly. The waiter was attentive, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. The calamari basket and oyster shooters were outstanding--I'm already craving more. Their sushi selection was also delicious, with great options for those who love raw sushi. If you're not into cream cheese or fried sushi, you'll still find plenty to enjoy. I can't wait to go back again!

This place is worth the wait! We waited about an hour without a reservation. We knew it was going to be a wait so we didn't mind at all. The server we had was great he answered all of questions and was super attentive to our table. The table got a couple rolls to share and they were all very delicious. The edamame was a must and my favorite roll was the crispy garlic one! If I am ever in town again I will be coming back!

Great spot! They don't take reservations for groups less than 8, so if you're wanting to not wait, get there around 5pm. There's usually a line at 5pm to get seated. The sushi rolls were delicious and had a great selection of options. The chicken and steak entrees were delicious and a must order! All of it was delicious!

Sapa does sushi right. It's a positive dining experience from the moment you walk in the transportive door. The decor and the ambiance are perfect for a romantic date night, a night out with friends, or even just a causal business lunch. The food has never disappointed. It always tastes fresh and expertly prepared. We tried a couple new cocktails and enjoyed them a lot. And, as usual, the service was sublime from beginning to end. If you've never been to Sapa, you should give it a try. If you have been to Sapa, keep coming back.

Had a great experience at Sapa. The lamb sauté bento box really impressed--huge portion for just $18, and the lamb was coated in a flavorful, rich sauce with just the right amount of heat. The salad on the side was crisp and refreshing, especially with the light, citrusy dressing that balanced out the meal nicely. We also shared the calamari, which was a standout.

Definitely better quality sashimi than what I've seen at most other spots around SLC. Service was attentive and friendly throughout, and we only waited about 5-10 minutes for a table, even on a busy lunch. Overall, Sapa delivered on both flavor and value. Solid spot if you're craving Japanese or fusion in the area.

Such a great spot for some sushi! Might even be my favorite sushi in the area. I order the Venus roll and it's just perfect. The fried rice is also AMAZING. Probably even the best fried rice I've ever had even. The cinnamon cake with ice cream is also a must. The service is always great and so quick even with a large group. The restaurant has such a cool vibe and is the perfect spot for a night out or a date night. A must try in the area!!

I love the: Spicy edamame Garlic noodles with short rib Filet mignon Low rider E. Brooklyn Imperial Maui Wowie Kamikaze Playboy

Sapa is always a great spot! It has been awhile since I've been here but the FOOD is always amazing. Cyprus roll is a must!

Walked in around 7:30 pm on a Friday night. I went by myself so I was sat at the bar. I didn't drink but Simon was very attentive and gave amazing suggestions. I wanted tea but they were mostly caffeinated. So he brought me lemon, honey and hot water and it was a great alternative. I also asked for a fresh and fried roll. He suggested the blazing jazz as the fresh roll and cypress roll. They were both great suggestions and were tasty. He has vast knowledge of the menu. He explained things for me but I also over heard him at another table. Not only did he always made sure I have refills, empty plates taken away, he checked in on me, he was also taking tables and behind the bar. Yet not one time did I feel forgotten. He is a great server and asset. The place was super cool too, the glass art fixtures and way it was decorated. When I walked in and sat down, one of my favorite posthumous Mac Miller songs played. I knew then, I was exactly where I needed to be in that moment. 10/10 would go again. Service was amazing, cool ambiance and the vibe.

Their food is amazing. It's a stop we do multiple times every visit. Hidden menu has spicier rolls.

My favorite sushi spot in SLC! We got the miso soup, pork gyoza, sunset roll, dinero roll, mojo roll, chicken fried rice, and drunken noodles. Everything was absolutely delicious! Our server was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was authentic, love seeing the sushi bar. It was just a little cold in the restaurant so bring a jacket!

Rolls ranking: Low rider 5/5 (would get again, especially if you like Tuna) Maui wowie 4.1/5 (delicious mango, wish there was more fish) Kiss of death 3.9/5 (pretty good, just a basic tuna roll) Sake nigiri 4.2 (according to friend) Negihama maki 3.6/5 (hamachi nigiri is better)

Was awesome loved everything especially the hamachi items and the dinero, Ryan was great, really good natured and attentive. I didn't take pictures I was hungry. Thanks for the sweet sweet hang, good luck with the partial ginger thing, doesn't change how we feel about you.

I've been here many times over the years and it's always delicious with bad service. Tonight I came with a group of 8 with reservations of course and our table was ready on time. I hadn't been in a while but knew the secret rolls were where it was at. The veggie tempura was crunchy and not soggy and the sauce was incredible. I ordered the kids chicken dinner and it was plenty for me. The teriyaki sauce was different and had crunchy things on top. Even the California roll was fresh. My table enjoyed the cocktails and I wished the Sapporo draft was colder and drafty. It was pretty flat. Our server was amazing and on top of all of us ordering here and there. Parking is rough to find and they have a very small parking lot. Its actually what keeps me from dining here more often but after tonight, its worth it. Oh BTW if you plan on drinking alcohol, the hostess will ID you then stamp your hand. I guess it's better than looking for your ID when your sitting down and have put everything away. Place was packed so get reservations.

I love the vibe in this location! It's actually so much bigger than you can imagine too. I've never had much of a wait time here. On the outside it may seem a little interesting but on the inside it is so beautiful and an underground vibe. The sushi is amazing!! It tastes so fresh and also does not take too long to get! This is cute for a date night or even if you are with a large group. I've been here for both and with a group of 10 we had a wait on a Friday for only 5 minutes. Service is friendly and helpful but also a bit busy at times. No complaints here!

The interior is beautiful and way more spacious than we expected. We sat at the bar and had fantastic service from Simon, who gave us some great recommendations and made amazing drinks. The spicy edamame was delicious, and the sushi was super fresh and flavorful. Highly recommend stopping by for a great meal and atmosphere!

Sapa sushi is a delightful sushi restaurant located in Salt Lake City. There is street parking out front and also a lot you can use across the street at the weed shop, which they also own. Came in to dine on their all you can eat option which is only available for about 90 minutes. So you have to get there immediately at open if you want this option. We were greeted and seated promptly and the bartender (who was our server as well since we sat in the bar area) came and took drink orders, which he then promptly filled and brought to us. He then took our food order. The sushi throughout the meal arrived fresh and full of flavor that you'd expect from a good sushi establishment. The fish was fresh, the flavors were perfect, and the taste was delicious. I look forward to my return to Salt Lake City so I can come back and eat here once again.

amazing, unique sushi and appetizers! we started with the spicy edamame which was more like a sweet/spicy flavor. the pork dumplings were so yummy too! we ordered the cypress roll and low rider and both were so good, absolutely would reorder. i love a spicy roll and a delicious sauce on top and these were exactly that!

Fantastic sushi, great service for our very large party, and the environment was so fun! We had a great time here with incredible food. I had the dragonfly roll, cucumber and avocado roll and a spring roll - everything was delicious!

I used to love this place but came here after a couple of years of not stopping in and it's just not the same. Service was unfriendly, sushi was not great, smaller portions with very little fish on any rolls and yet more expensive than many less expensive alternatives in the valley. Sad to say I won't be back as I used to come here 5-6 times a year.

Hunger level 2/3 (hungry) The service was quick and friendly for a bustling Saturday night. The food was fantastic and we enjoyed all of the sushi. The server made great recommendations for different rolls. The only drawback for the food side of things was that the drink menu was lacking especially if you don't drink alcohol. The ambiance was fine for my boyfriend and I but it could be hit or miss depending on who you are sitting next to. We sat next to a large party that was intoxicated and celebrating a birthday which we didn't mind, but tables next to us were. If you're looking for a place with solid sushi and you're not picky about drink menus or you're not looking for a particular ambiance Sapa is a great choice. Sapa was a hit for us!

This place is great. We got takeout, but I can't wait to come back and dine inside. The atmosphere and decor makes for an interesting setting. The light fixtures alone are fun to look at. The sushi chefs make the sushi up front while looking over at the guests. You can also tell that this place is loved. I think k saw 3 different celebrations going on and it was a Tuesday! The food: so good. The rolls were well put together and the dumplings were unique but still familiar. The price point is comparable to other sushi places too.

Fresh sushi, speedy friendly service, hip ambiance Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the sushi! I got the Cyprus roll on the "secret menu" and it was delicious. The secret menu rolls are around $17, but plenty filling for one person. There are also a lot of no sushi items on the menu- something for everyone, even if you don't like sushi (noodles, curry, and teriyaki) Parking: there is street parking and a large parking lot behind the restaurant that is paid parking. Fyi, right now they seem to be out of salmon

If you love someone, you'll bring them to Sapa. I'm obsessed with Sapa's teriyaki beef entree and the sunset roll. It's my go-to order and never disappoints. I'm not sure what they use to marinate their teriyaki beef but it is bursting with flavor every time. The sunset roll is so beautiful and tastes just as good as it looks. I love the citrus-y lemon on top of the roll. Service is consistently kind and quick. One time I've gone in the past we had this server who was an absolute hoot, made the best recommendations, and was overall so hospitable. Highly recommend you try Sapa if you haven't yet!!

Sapa is always a hit for us. They have great service, ambience and sushi! We went with a huge party and our server was truly a part of the celebration with us. He was patient with all the orders and cake we brought. We got a variety of rolls and like most places its more of a wait with fried rolls but i loved each one. Would definitely come back for another special occasion.

Sapa is in my top 5 favorite restaurants in Salt Lake City. Despite being very busy, the food is top notch. I
