Sushi Town rocks!!! my only wish is that they move to a bigger place. Friday is sushi night at our house so I call it in and struggle for standing room...it is a GOOD thing and I am just being selfish.

I remember going there when my little one was 1 month old, that was back in 2004 when he first opened...love it!

Anyone who's curious about Sushi Town (Bonney Lake) needs to also look into Trapper's Sushi (Covington). They are owned and run by the same people. That means the food is good in the same ways and the service is AWFUL in the same ways.

ONLY go to one of these places if you really don't care about the service. Or just get take out!

Hands down the best Sushi place I have ever been to!

My wife and I recently moved away from Bonney Lake, and we miss the place so much we are willing to drive an hour every now and then for their food.

The rolls are amazing and very creative.  The prices are about standard, though some are a bit pricey.  I never do the all you can eat, but only because we like sitting and lounging for a while.  The service is great and the hostesses and waitresses are friendly and actually remember you.

If you like sushi, you will love this place.  You need to try the Trapper, Mt. Rainier, and the Trump rolls.  All the standard Nigiri and Sashimi are fantastic as well, but those rolls blew me away when I had them.  Anything you order will be great, I'm sure of it.

This place is AMAZING. Its the best Sushi that I can remember having in the past couple of years. I have only been there for lunch, but that is the best time to go given the buffet style sushi bar (read on...)

You will probably have to wait if there are more than 2 in your group, but I HIGHLY recommend eating at the bar if you will eat more than 2 rolls by yourself. For $17.99 (the $12.95 price from the other review is outdated), its all you can eat for 1 hour, but only at the bar. They will make your rolls or nigiri right there for you, and as you are getting down to the last piece or two in your roll, the chef will ask which one you want next. Any roll that you don't eat at least half of, you will be charged the full price for that roll.

If not eating at the bar, specialty rolls run about $8-10 a piece, so the bar quickly becomes economical. They also serve Teriyaki and other dishes at the tables.

The staff is super friendly, and are willing to give advice on your selections.

I highly recommend the "Trapper", "Mountain" and "Sushi Town" rolls. The trapper and mountain are huge, so hopefully you brought an appetite.

Although there is no delivery, you can call ahead with takeout orders. I do not recommend bringing a group, at least at lunch time.

The first time I discovered that there was a sushi restaurant near(ish) my house in this small town I was overjoyed. Having been a city girl for the past near-decade and moving back to this beers-steers-qu..no.. town, my fervor for dead uncooked fishies and sticky rice and odd pickled vegetables was out of control... so off to Sushi Town.

Obviously, everyone else likes sushi or sushi-like things or maybe just some tempura, because on my first visit the place was PACKED. Unfortunately, packed with parties of 2 or more, because those are the people they like to seat. If you're by yourself, you obviously just want to stand there are watch people who were behind you get seated first, while you wait patiently and try to make eye-contact (good luck) with ANYONE for the LOVE OF GOD, working there.

The other times I had been there on my own, it was the same kind of wait-around-being-ignored kind of situation, thus I'm gathering that it's not just a matter of them being uber-busy and overlooking poor lone diners such as myself.

I've also noticed if you do not fit in with a certain crowd (you're not in a faily of 4, you're not a couple on a date, you're not old as shit) the ignorance factor goes up another notch. I've been there with my (much) younger sister, who just loves sushi, and I wanted to take her to a nice meal. I guess if you're a couple of gals who aren't over 35, you probably won't get waited on in any expediated manner.

The service aspects aside, the food is quite good here. The sashimi is definitely not in miniscule proportions, you do get a nice good meaty chunk of fish (and I usually  go for salmon or tuna sashimi, sometimes octopus). The nigiri sushi is always top-notch, very fresh, and rolled well - i.e. it's not falling apart the second you pick it up. They do not skimp on anything.

The best deal, I think, is the Sushi B combination for $18 - you get several choices of sashimi, and nigiri - this all comes with miso soup and rice - and a most delicious seaweed salad.

In the end, I'm on the fence about continuing business with Sushi Town.. I do NOT like bad service for the sake of good food, and I do not like to wait forever for anything less than a 5-star meal (sue me, I'm a snob). If they hired a more competent staff who were pass the hair-flipping-yea-uhhuh! stage I think they would offer a much more pleasant dining experience.

Not to brag but I'm pretty much the master of sushi. Or I eat a good amount anyways. This place has hella good sushi- it can be a liitle pricy depending on what you get. The only thing that is hard to stomach is the butt rock they play in there.

Excellent sushi and the $18.95 all you can eat lunch can't be beat.  What keeps it from being rated higher is the ambience.  Too small and too hard to get into sometimes.  As much as the food as good, the wait isn't.  Wait staff could learn a thing or two as well.  The guys behind the bar are pleasant.  The sushi is great though.  Excellent quality fish served in a nice sized pieces.  Am a fan of nigiri more than rolls in general and wish that they would offer more variety in that direction and not just the usual stuff.

This little place is fabulous. Even out in the "sticks" you can find some great sushi. Incredible sushi and very busy - come early and expect to wait --- but soooooo worth it. Sit at the bar if you can but be prepared to stuff your face to make the $12.95 all-you-can-eat Sushi worth it.
