" Tsurukame Sushi is a solid option for fresh sushi at a great price. I love their spicy tuna rolls and California rolls; both are fantastic! Do be prepared for a long wait, especially during lunch hours. It's definitely a take-out place—no fancy décor or space to sit. But it's great if you’re in a rush and want something fresh. I will continue to come back for the quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tsurukame has become my go-to place for sushi. They have a very limited but delightful menu, focusing primarily on rolls and bowls, which they do exceptionally well. Every piece tasted fresh, and the prices are absolutely insane for what you get. Just be advised that patience is key; the chef takes his time to ensure everything is perfect. When you call, they'll let you know approximately how long it will be, and that helps to manage expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have visited Tsurukame several times and love watching the owner work! His dedication shows in the quality of the food. The last visit I made, I ordered their specialty—the chicken teriyaki combo—and I highly recommend it. The only drawback is their limited seating and the long wait times, but I find it peaceful waiting for my meal while I enjoy the quality of the work being done. Worth a thousand gratifying meals! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't believe I waited this long to discover Tsurukame Sushi! The flavors in the salmon sashimi were purely delightful and the spicy tuna bowl was just the right amount of kick. It's clear this place puts a lot of heart into their food. The chef was friendly and kept me posted on my order status, which was appreciated. Also, the prices are unbeatable! Even as a new customer, I felt valued and welcomed. I’ll definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had heard a lot about this restaurant and finally decided to check it out for lunch. The sushi was indeed quite good, but I faced a couple of issues. The service was friendly, but I noticed that my order didn’t come out as timely as I hoped. Unfortunately, it was quite busy that day. Regardless, the sushi was fresh and very reasonably priced, so I think I’d give it another chance. Just be prepared for the wait next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Although I’ve been a loyal customer for a while, my last experience at Tsurukame Sushi was a bit disappointing. I felt the quality of the California rolls wasn't the same, and there was a significant mix-up with my order. However, the owner was very apologetic, and he did rectify the situation by offering an extra roll to make up for it. I do appreciate his effort to ensure customers are satisfied. I still think the sushi is a good deal and will continue coming back. " (*Curated Review*)

" While Tsurukame Sushi delivers some pretty solid sushi, you need to be prepared to wait. I called in my order for a pick-up, and the chef advised it would take about 45 minutes due to high demand. I was okay to wait, as I was craving sushi that day! When I finally got home to eat, I definitely could tell the food was fresh and made just for me. The California rolls were massive—definitely great value for what I paid. Just be sure to keep an eye on the time if you're hungry! " (*Curated Review*)
