My favorite restaurant of all time. Unfortunately they haven't done dine in since Covid but the carry out is still fantastic. Ajishin soup and get the grilled salmon filet or belly. All the nigiri is fresh.
Take out only for dinner! I live in SoCal and this is one spot I'll trust in Michigan for freshness and quality. Amazing prices. Hard to beat. Sushi rice is fantastic and flavorful with sesame seeds and what tastes like rice vinegar. Hack: There is a Ding Tea a mile away, and the owner of Ding Tea was so chill about us eating our takeout Ajishin there (with us purchasing boba ofc).
A friend brought me over as this place is famous for their sushi. The prices isn't too bad but the portion is small. The overall quality is average, which is to be expected based on the price. We shared a udon and a 8 piece nigari. The service was pretty fast and the staff friendly. The restaurant only does take-out now, so plan accordingly!
I love the grilled fish combo that comes with a big bowl of udon. It's one of the few places with delicious grilled salmon belly. There is also an option to order grilled fish without the rice and udon. I was less impressed with my chirashi bowl. I wish it came with more fish. You can get a slightly better sushi deal down the road at One World Market. Service is friendly. Please be aware that this is a takeout restaurant only.
I've had Ajishin for over 10 years and every time all the nigiris are fresh and udon always hits the spot. It's nice that I can order two half maikos and eat more sushi instead of filling my stomach with udon mostly. I noticed that they recently have been giving less tempuras for maiko toppings and the fact that you can no longer order belly tuna and sweet raw shrimp are a huge bummer. But I will always come back whenever I crave good sushi and udon!
