Sekisui East

The atmosphere was lovely. The sake and beer selection were good. The sushi had way too much rice to ingredient ratio. The eel sauce was outstanding. Staff was decently attentive. We will return and try everything again!

My wife and myself come here on average twice a month for date night. Marjory and Yuseff are great hosts and the food is always fantastic with rotating weekly specials. I have scoured the surrounding areas and this is the best by far. Not too fancy or trendy just great service and sushi, oh and apparently they have a great hot menu though I have only done the sushi.

Sekisui East is my favorite restaurant! Not just for sushi, but in general! I probably go more often than I should… but it’s difficult to pass up an opportunity to eat such delicious food and experience great service!

We came on a slow night (one of three tables). Clearly they forget to put in our order as we sat there for over 40 minutes, and not one of the waiters came to check on us. Finally we flagged a waiter down- no apologies or explanation offered until I asked. The rolls are small and overpriced. Do yourself a favor and go to Sakura or Fuji (or anywhere other than here honestly). As a native Memphian, it’s sad to see sekisui devolve to this… a simple “I’m sorry” would have gone a long way.

When the sushi urge hits Sekisui East, never fails to satisfy the craving. They have a daily fresh board with amazing fresh sashimi offerings. Chef gentle moves me from a cooked sushi customer, to exploring more authentic uncooked options.
