The Sushi Station

We had an *alright* first experience at Sushi Station in Downtown Webster Groves. Nothing was great, nothing was terrible. The atmosphere was visually beautiful but the blasting Christian music was rather… unexpected… for a restaurant of this type! The service was pretty disappointing, we had to leave cash on the table because our waitress never came back. The food was pretty good. My Mom enjoyed her Teriyaki Chicken but did bite into a couple tough pieces. Her rice was also very fluffy and she enjoyed the salad that was included. I got the Orange Chicken Appetizer which was nice and crispy, and a singular Spicy Tuna Nigiri was just okay. Again, the rice was great but the tuna tasted a bit too icy (frozen?) for my liking. We probably wouldn’t come back anytime soon, but it wasn’t the worst meal we’ve ever had. The location is very convenient and the prices weren’t that bad.

Really, really fresh fish! Lots of foo-foo rolls that would like to hide the quality and flavor of the fish but that's not the stuff I order when we go out for sushi. I'm all about the chirashi...and hand rolls. Sometimes nigiri but always chirashi. On this visit- the first of many to come - I ordered...CHIRASHI. Surprised? Me either. The slices of fish they provided were larger than usually seen and exceptionally fresh. They include 10 pieces but mine only included 3 varieties of fish: tuna, salmon and yellowtail. All included were excellent but the lack of variety seemed like a miss. The rice was also something of a miss. It was serviceable but they really blew the opportunity to make it something special. They could have added or mixed in any number of other items to kick up the rice. Slivers of gourd would be the first thought. They also could have added a bit more in the way of non-fish items to make the bowl more interesting. I've seen small amounts of seaweed salad, octopus salad and other vegetables included elsewhere.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sushi Station is hands down the best sushi spot around! The sushi is incredibly fresh, beautifully prepared, and packed with flavor—every bite was outstanding. What really sets this place apart, though, is the staff. They were welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind, making the whole experience even better. You can tell they truly care about their customers. If you’re a sushi lover, Sushi Station is a must-visit. Highly recommend!

Incredible staff incredible service every time. I’ve never had a bad experience, the food is absolutely to die for. Highly recommend!

For reference, my best friend and I have been dining here fairly consistently for over 2 years, ie: going in at least once a month. Tonight we went in and ordered 2 sushi rolls & 3 orders of gyoza (bill was $72). Our food came out within 15 minutes or so but it was very disappointing. The sushi was warm when it came out & the gyoza was rubbery. It did not taste like the same quality of food we were both used to. We began to eat and both got less than halfway through our meal before giving up. The server attending us did not check in during the meal, and only asked at the end if we wanted a to-go box for food we hadn’t touched. She spent most of her time watching the olympics on tv and on her phone, in plain sight of our table. We have both previously spent our money here as dine in guests, carry out customers and gift card purchasers. Very disappointed.

Cute, cozy atmosphere. The food was delicious, I had their pork katsu and I loved it. Service was helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

I thought this place would be a decent place due to reviews and social media recommendations. I brought friends from out-of-town to try out Sushi Station around the new year. First thing I noticed was the sky high prices. I asked for the portion size of sashimi and nigiri a la carte pieces and the waitress admitted of the skimpy portion sizes despite the price. Our food took a good deal of time to arrive despite the nearly empty restaurant at the time. A friend commented that their kobe roll meat was underseasoned and compared the beef quality to "taco bell." I paid around $50 for a sushi roll and a katsudon that made up my full portion. It tasted decent, but not $50 good. My friends left still hungry. I am embarrassed for inviting my friends here and I regret not walking out as soon as I saw the menu prices. That is why I decided to write this review two months later.

Sushi Station is elite, period. The sushi is always fresh, high-quality, and miles better than the mediocre spots people love to defend. Every roll is done right, no shortcuts, no nonsense. Remember, McDonald’s is always an option when you can’t afford quality food. The staff is phenomenal — fast, friendly, and actually cares, which is more than can be said for most places. Service here is consistently on point. If you don’t like Sushi Station, that’s not a restaurant problem — that’s a taste problem. This place delivers quality and doesn’t apologize for it. One of the best sushi spots around, no debate.

Amazing chicken tempura roll and teriyaki bowl! Even though it was crowded, the staff came out quick with our food and sushi, and it was really delicious! The restaurant was very clean and spacious, which made navigating easy!

My favorite sushi spot in STL - great quality food and quick service. Inside and outdoor seating options (always kept clean) in a good location. Good atmosphere inside, though it can be pretty busy (for good reason) since it's a smaller restaurant.

Sushi Station in St. Louis completely exceeded my expectations. The customer service was phenomenal- friendly, attentive, and fast! My food came out quickly, and every sushi roll was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can tell they take pride in what they do. It's hard to pick a favorite because everything I tried was amazing. They have spaced out sittings and outside sits when the weather is favorable. Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for great sushi and top-notch service in STL

Perfect meal. Squid salad, super white tuna, teriyaki chicken. Great service .. also loved no marijuana sign on door

Can't believe this spot has less than 4 stars overall...it's definitely a 4.5, not a 3.9! Sat at the sushi bar with a work peer for lunch. Fast, courteous service and found a seat easily. Enjoyed the edamame as an app, ordered 4 rolls. Spicy tuna, salmon, yellow tail and the presentation was solid. Great size orders, extremely fresh (important when considering sushi in MO!) and tasty!! To top it off, the prices are outstanding!! Really hard to beat!! Give this place a shot for lunch...well worth it!!

Sushi Station is one of my favorite sushi spots in the STL area. Every time I have been here I can taste how fresh the fish is. Even the more "simple" rolls are still satisfying and worth trying out. Some of my favorite appetizers include the karage and the spicy edamame with chili oil included in it. The appetizer menu itself is expansive with plenty of unique options. Every roll I have tried has been delicious - would recommend pairing a simple roll with one of the more special rolls. On this recent visit, I had the Crunchy Spicy Salmon Roll and the St. Louis Roll. I also appreciate that the menu features plenty of cooked rolls and various Japanese noodle / rice dishes, making this a perfect spot to take someone that is intimidated by raw fish. Sushi station has a lovely outside patio seating as well and is perfect for when the weather is nice. I'm looking forward to heading back soon and trying out some more rolls.

Food Ambiance Service Good overall place to enjoy sushi. The popcorn chicken appetizer was off the charts!! Crab Rangoon was scrumptious as well. Hot Sake was delish. My salmon sushi roll was ok. One of those "had worst, had better" rolls. The place is very nice and upscale looking, and the customer service was great, and always on point.

The sushi rolls were very good and the service was pretty good very nice. The place was very busy and loud inside I would like to go back when we could sit out on the patio.

Sushi Station is the absolute best. The workers are friendly and the food is DELICIOUS. My favorites are the sexy girl roll and sunrise roll, but literally everything is good. They have tables both inside and out as well as seating at the bar. Show up a bit early if you go at a busy time, but otherwise you will not be disappointed!

I used to come here a lot with one of my friends in college, but haven't been back often since she moved away. We really liked the cozy/ fun vibe and the appetizers here. My favorites are the Japanese chicken wings and calamari. I always ordered them when dining here, and they never failed me. At this visit, I also ordered Crazy salmon, Old Webster, Holly Crab rolls and yellowtail sashimi. I am not a big fan of sashimi/sushi rolls here. IMO they are decent. I just have a higher expectation when it comes to sushi/sashimi. Service has been fantastic. Orders came out quickly. They have good menu with kid menu (which is a huge plus)

This place has made me reconsider all 4&5 star reviews i've given to sushi places before, because Sushi Station really deserves that 5/5!! The specialty rolls are divine but so are the standard rolls! Their gyoza may be my favorite in the city right now. I love their outdoor seating and the staff is incredibly kind (and don't laugh when I order the same thing almost every time) They have street seating as well as an adorable back patio. This is currently the only sushi spot I'll recommend!

Sushi Station is always busy but there's a reason! The sushi is always fresh and they have a lot of variety in their roll options. It can feel a little cramped inside, but nothing beats sitting outside on their patio on a Friday night.

I went there with my mom and my brother, the service and food was amazing but, when the bill came out we was going to give them %20 tip but they already charged the tip for us?? auto tip charge should be charged for big group but this is only 3 people. My family took this as an insult, because we believe that they thought we were too poor to give tips because we were speaking foreign language. Goodbye sushi station would not go back EVER again.

Terrible atmosphere and experience from the ownership. They're alienating customers who choose to consume LEGAL cannabis before entering this establishment. If you're a fan of green don't spend yours here!

This is absolutely my favorite sushi spot in town. The staff is so friendly and helpful. The rolls are delicious and there is a broad menu. Also, I cannot rave enough about the side salad. It is such a great addition to the meal along with the gyoza. I was pleasantly surprised during my last visit that order hot tea results in a full pot of green tea delivered to your table--amazing! It is truly a hidden gem.

Great sushi, ok service, just rude as hell on the phone. Open seating and great location, but their customer service just is a big failure. Wouldn't recommend, would not go back.

I love Sushi Station! When I am in Webster Groves I like to go here and the nursery right across from here. The food is fresh and they don't go overboard on the sauces. You can still taste the fish.

This place is such a hidden gem! It's in the cutest area of Webster Groves. They have plenty of seating options both inside and outside. The food was delicious and prepared quickly! We had a combination of both speciality rolls and regular rolls and they were both wonderful! The service was perfection! They kept our drinks full and our tables cleared. The restaurant is very well cared for and clean. I can't say enough about how good this place was!

Hands down my favorite sushi spot in the area! The service is always nice and fast though I will say that the majority of the time we order pick up/to go since it's a relatively smaller establishment with a few tables. I just don't have the most patience lol I REALLY wish they would cater so I could have them at my potential wedding! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

We love Sushi Station. I really like the salad. There is always fresh fruit and the ginger dressing is delicious. We always get our food quickly and the servers are friendly. It is a small restaurant and a bit cozy, but there is also patio seating.

Excellent place. Friendly staff. I got to sit outside and it was lovely. The menu is only available on line. Plenty of sushi rolls to choose from. Delicious presentation. I got lucky when I stumbled onto this place.

I ordered takeout and got Rangoon & a fried Philly and it was incredible!! 10/10 recommend :)

Deceptive practices regarding gratuity. Automatic gratuity without disclosure. Good food sadly.

First time there and Disappointed. They don't have Shumai. They only have deep fried Spicy Tuna Roll. The Shrimp Ramen tasted like nothing. Lastly, small portions compared to price. Not going back.

Food was delicious and the service was quick! Their patio was super cozy and intimate!

Stopped in here on a Friday night with a group of friends. It's a cute little spot located in Old Webster. It's a small restaurant so the seating can feel a little tight. Menu had lots of options, food was good, service was good, everything was great. We all had a fun time. It was a five star experience. However, our first experience isn't the reason for my 3 star review. My girlfriend and I came back the following Tuesday night because she loved the food that much. It was a nice change up from where we typically go to in Chesterfield and we love sushi and eat it often. Unfortunately, our second experience wasn't as pleasant as our first. I can say with 100% confidence that my girlfriend got FOOD POISONING from this establishment. From the time we left Sushi Station to the time we went to bed, she was complaining about feeling sick. We had chalked it up to eating too much but we soon found out that wasn't the case. She woke up in the middle of the night and displayed all the symptoms of food poisoning. I could paint a picture for you but I think you get the idea. Later that morning, we called them just be like... hey, just so you know we had some bad sushi last night. We didn't ask for a refund, nothing. We genuinely just wanted to give them a heads up so no one else experienced what she had experienced earlier that morning. The entire reason why I am writing this review is because of how the Manager treated the situation. It was textbook on how NOT to handle this type of situation. Zero apology, deflecting and invalidating what had happened. Explained to us that in the 10 years that they have been open they have never had someone get food poisoning (lol sure). Basically every political answer she could have given, she gave us. The complete downplaying of the incident is total BS. We weren't looking for a handout we just wanted to look out for you and other customers. Don't worry though, after the conversation we have decided to take our money elsewhere. Maybe putting a spotlight on our experience will provoke you to finally take some accountability for what had happened. TREAD CAREFULLY!!!!

If you are looking for good sushi in Webster Grove, Sushi Station is a must try! They have an extensive sushi list with regular rolls and special rolls. In addition, they have some Japanese classics like Yakisoba and Katsu. We tried the Hamachi Carpaccio and Miso soup for starters. The Hamachi was fresh and it tasted delicious. The miso soup for pretty good too. We ordered the Firecraker roll, Crazy Salmon roll, Sexy girl roll and Eel avocado roll. All the rolls were very good. Our favorite was the Firecracker roll. We also had the Yellowtail and Big Eye Tuna nigiri. The service was prompt and the place was very clean. They have both outdoor and indoor seating. There is street parking or a parking lot nearby for convenient parking.

Amazing service with even better food i love this place and am constantly craving the chicken katsudon

Automatic gratuity on takeout. Placed a take out order and they added 15% tip automatically to my order without telling me. I've been a server before, I didn't throw a fit but that's not acceptable considering no one served me.

Came in for dinner with couple friends. There was a bar right when you walked in. We got seated right away. But we sit in the back and it was pretty quiet. I ordered the Pork Katsu Kare. It came out pretty fast and the portion was huge. I wish there was more vegetables... however, the curry was really good. I'd definitely come back and try more items on the menu.

I really thought I had posted a review, but December was busy so maybe not. After careful review of the menu, I will try to recall what we ordered. Regardless if I get this right or not, we really enjoyed all the rolls we tried. The Kobe (definitely right) was a surprise hit. We tried to because it was different. I believe the other rolls we tried were The Trio, The St Louis, and Spicy Salmon. So so good! The service was great. It's a busy place, so arrive early. I look forward to returning!

I was running errands in Webster Groves and got a craving for sushi. My phone told me Sushi Station was the closest. So, I thought I'd stop in to get an order to go. Ordered a Tempura Shrimp roll and miso soup. There is a parking garage directly behind the restaurant. Restaurant was nice and staff were friendly. However, I didn't realize until later they added a 15% tip to my bill and I tipped on top of that. Ate my meal as soon as I got home and my sushi roll was soggy and the soup was overly salty. Not impressed at all.

Sushi Station does not fail me! Seating is limited, so I would go as soon as you can! The service is always friendly and nice. The food is always prepared with love and attention. I can't remember the names of the roll to save my life, but also the calamari as an appetizer is great!

I am a snob when it comes to sushi. I was super hype about this place being 6 minutes away from my sister's new home. Sadly, I left this place unhappy. Both service & food were a letdown. There were maybe 1 or 2 tables inside the establishment. We opted to sit outside to enjoy the weather. Our appetizers came out quickly. Not sure what was taken for our sushi longer. We finally asked why the holdup on sushi, they then brought it out to us immediately. Not sure what happened, but one of severs became kinda rude to us for no apparent reason. And we were shocked when we saw 15% tips added to our bill for a party of 2. We are 20% tippers, if not more, but never less. Food was alright. Rice was super dried. Sashimi didn't taste as fresh comparing to other places. I will not be returning to this place.

We were in the area and happy to have had a chance to try Sushi Station! It was a busy evening, we arrived around 830pm. There were a lot of employees, so it was kind of overwhelming at first being helped by all the staff, didn't know who was our waitress. One waitress took my drink order but never came back. I appreciate the teamwork, but I think it led to an item being missed. The food came out quick, and I was not disappointed! We got several rolls of sushi, chirashi and tempura udon with vegetables. I do not think anythjng I ordered was uniquely special, however I liked the quality and ratio of fish to rice. I would def come again if in the area.

This is my first time here. Place has chill vibe, family friend oriented. No need to do reservation, itnis first come first serve. There are two rooms first one can fit around 30 ppl not including the bar. Food: plenty of fried food option and some vegetarian options. Start with Miso soup flavor was little bit heavier with an aftertaste Spring rolls: crunchy and not greasy, but felt like it lacked a flavor Crab rangoon: this one was good, had right amount of cheese Umami leaves: was super good, light full of flavor Takiyaki: this one is bit for me. Was deep fried, supposed to have octopus but did not taste the octopus. Did not taste like anything for me. My best part other than umami leaves was sushi rolls. They were good rich in flavors still light. I enjoyed it. Overall it was a good experience. I would go back for the sushi, umami leaves and to try other plates.

My all time favorite sushi spot here in St. Louis!! Super quick service and great sushi selection. The best sushi you can get in the Lou

The food was average. Came here for dinner and grabbed a table for one. After eating my server applied a 15% tipped for herself onto the bill. I went on to ask her about it she told me she couldn't take it off.

My friend and I were having a girls lunch and were in the mood for some sushi. We wanted to try a spot that we haven't been to before so we went to go check out Sushi Station. As soon as we walked in, we were politely greeted and immediately seated. We started off with drinks and the Rancho La Gloria Strawberry Margarita was really good. I loved the gyozas that we had and my entrée of the Kara-age chicken and the Fried California roll were everything! Like my stomach is smiling just thinking about it. lol My friend had the Fried Philly and the Crunchy Spicy Tuna roll and she really loved her meal as well. Between the amazing food and the great hospitality, I would definitely come back to Sushi Station again.

We have loved this place for years and order takeout from here a couple times a month... until recently when we realized they have started tacking on a 15% fee onto takeout orders (not delivery) that is undisclosed on their website or on the phone when you call. The prices are high enough without a massive mystery fee added at the end. It is super gross feeling and probably should legally be disclosed at the very least. We will order takeout elsewhere in the future. So sad.

We came in for dinner on a weekend and were sat right away. The outdoor patio is super cute! Service was great overall. Fun vibes for a dinner with friends. - Sashimi appetizer - 10 pieces (4.5/5): surprisingly fresh! Salmon was so yummy, almost melted in your mouth. Yellowtail was great as well. Tuna was okay. - Crunchy spicy salmon roll (4/5): the crunch added a nice texture. Good flavors overall - St Louis roll (3.5/5): also really good, good amount of sauce and not drowning in it which was great. - Crazy salmon roll (4/5): this was my favorite roll with the different salmon varieties. Bigger portion than the others, but this was more pricey as well

The amount of time I have eaten tofu i could count from one hand. My friend recommended we try the Agedashi Tofu, and I was in for a nice surprise. The dashi based sauce really was the saving grace of the tofu, it gave it a taste which I really liked. We also had the katsu chicken, the chicken was well seasoned and crispy! The fried rice was tasty as well. I really liked the spider roll, I expected more roll for the price honestly. That's my only disappointment. I have to say, their staff are really attentive! They were always available and prompt with removing dishes as we ate, so it allowed us to have more space. They were also friendly and our food arrived in a timely manner, can't beat that.

Tasty sushi and service. One of my daughters go-to spots, she brought us here today for lunch. They weren't busy at all..of course it was around 2:30. They have a great back patio, as well as a small amount of indoor seating. We each ordered a roll, as well as pork gyoza. The pieces were much smaller than some I've had, but they were all yummy. And the gyoza was just fab. The location is good, everything was very clean and the service was friendly and efficient.

I guess the new closing hours are 9:30pm. I really wanted something good and healthy tonight, walked up at 9:37 and the door was locked with 4 or 5 employees cleaning inside. It's just disappointing.

Such a good find great food and atmosphere would go again maybe when the patio is open

Another good round of Sushi Station for the books! I tried the shrimp roll that wasn't my favorite but the crab Rangoon and salmon smoothed that over. They're giving out less and less rice it seems, (pictured) idk what that's about. Still my fav sushi spot until yelp finds me another. ;)

Honestly, I take all my friends here to get sushi. One of the best sushi places in STL. They have a ton to choose from and there's things for people if they aren't into sushi. Rolls are a nice size and I can't wait to come back for more. The service was quick and they checked on me constantly. Wasn't too loud either. If it was a nice day out and wasn't too windy, I would've eaten outside for lunch.

I recently saw that you have a post up about not serving people who smell like marijuana and believe that smelling like cigarettes should not be allowed either. Both are legal and both smell gross and I don't like the smell of people who just smoked cigarettes.
