Sushi-san - Review - 12 South - Nashville - The Infatuation

"Sushi-san opens its first location outside of Chicago in 12 South. The menu features sashimi sets and makis with Balfego bluefin tuna from Spain, along with binchotan-roasted meats, a strong 65-bottle list of Japanese whiskies, and blast-chilled Asahi on draft. Expect a hip-hop-heavy soundtrack to set the mood, and a walk-up soft serve window for a grab-and-go snack or dessert." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones

I’ve lived here for 5 years and this place just became the best Asian spot in all of Nashville. The service and the people were so nice throughout the whole meal! The staff was so knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable with the menu….decor great…blah blah blah….what about THE FOOD?! Yea I can just say everything I had was delish, was perfect, was another hyperbole of greatness….the truth was that everything we did eat became my favorite dish. I legit said “I have no idea which is my favorite” Dumplings… Omg Crispy tuna…so fresh Eggplant tempura….what?! YES! Sushi….am I in Japan? The skirt steak…HOW?! *all genuine reactions* Then wrap all this up in an amazing value that was legit more affordable than most Nashville sushi restaurants.

Absolutely amazing. Had fresh tuna for the first time and definitely will be coming back. The vibe is amazing. I love how they play great hip-hop! Doesn’t feel rushed either with service!

Sushi-san offers a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere with excellent lighting and music that create a calm vibe. The menu design is clean and intuitive, and each dish from the salmon sashimi to the deluxe nigiri that was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Service was outstanding across the board, with friendly, knowledgeable staff who made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable.

I am simply blown away. No words can express. The food/cuisine at Sushi San was phenomenal and our waitress was excellent, I believe her name was Emmie - gave us some great recommendations! And not to mention the gluten free soy sauce, to DIE for. Fans would go feral if this hit the global market. I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that this is the best gluten free soy here in Nashville, HANDS DOWN. Above and beyond, bravo. #We’reNotGonnaSue ☺️🤗

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — A Top-Tier Culinary Experience at Sushi-San Nashville I had an exceptional dining experience at Sushi-San in Nashville, thanks to the outstanding service from Joe and Monica behind the bar. Both were attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming, and they helped make the evening one to remember. Joe in particular went above and beyond with his knowledge and hospitality, but the team as a whole made the experience special. I started with the miso soup, which was rich, balanced, and easily one of the best I’ve had. For sushi, I ordered four different rolls: the Lobster California, the Spicy Scallop, the Shrimp Tempura, and the Truffle Shiitake. Every single one was phenomenal—fresh, flavorful, and crafted with care. The combination of cooked and specialty ingredients made for an exciting progression throughout the meal. For cocktails, I enjoyed the “Thank You, Enjoy #6,” which was excellent and perfectly paired with the food. I also had an ice-cold Asahi from the Hoshizaki machine, and Joe gave a great explanation of how it works and why it creates such a crisp, refreshing pour—really cool to learn and even better to drink. I finished with a double espresso digestif, which was the ideal ending to an already stellar meal. From start to finish, this was one of the best culinary experiences I’ve had in Nashville. Highly recommend Sushi-San—and if you can, grab a seat at the bar with Joe and Monica. They’ll take great care of you.
