After many fancy sushi dinners and quick grab-and-go experiences we’ve learnt where they serve the best sushi in Amsterdam.

Zushi Sushi
Amstel 20
You can find Zushi in a 19th-century building along the Amstel. Walk in and experience their laid-back ambiance. Perfect to enjoy sushi with an intimate group of people. They have over 40 different kinds of sushi and you can either order them from the menu or wait and see what comes by on the conveyor belt. From the amazing Aburi Sake Nigiri of which the salmon has been marinated 24 hours in sake to the velvety, melt in your mouth Wagyu Beef from the grill, Zushi understands everyone’s unique taste.
Mojo Amsterdam
Oosterdokskade 133
In the center of Amsterdam devoted sushi-lovers can eat their (sushi)hearts out at Mojo. For a fixed price you can enjoy all the sushi you want or order sushi from their a la carte menu. They have all the traditional sushi on the menu, but their specials are very tasty as well. Our personal favorites are the spicy tuna tartar, the caviar hand roll and their rib-eye rolls.
Kyoto
De Ruijterkade 42b
Right at Central Station you can find Kyoto Sushi. Kyoto has been bringing Japanese food to Amsterdam since 1966. All their food is based on the recipes of the Japanese chef Kenji Osone. You can enjoy well-priced specials such as sushi bowls or meal sets that are around €10,-, but they also have regular sushi rolls and grill dishes.
