" While I appreciate the freshness of the fish, I found the portion sizes a bit underwhelming considering the price point. The sushi was tasty, but it didn’t feel like I was getting enough for what I paid. Service wasn’t bad but wasn't anything exceptional either. I probably wouldn't come back simply for the sushi. If they worked on improving the portions and the plating, this place would be next level! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here was impressive! Ideal for sushi fans. Their menu offers an interesting mix of rolls while maintaining a level of authenticity. Upon my visit, the service was prompt and friendly. I'm excited to come back and continue exploring their creative menu, can't wait to see what they offer next! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointing experience overall. The sushi was average. It was fresh, but the flavors didn’t match up to my expectations. The service felt strained, and the waiting times were unreasonable. I wouldn’t recommend this place based on my experience, but could give it another chance if reviews improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for traditional sushi flavors with a modern twist, look no further than Buddha Fish. The quality was superb, and their unique rolls are unlike anything else in the area. You really can tell the chefs put pride into their work. Not much in the way of atmosphere for dining in, but no one can argue with the quality of the sushi. Excited to try more on my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been here a few times already, and it’s consistently good! Their unique roll, the '908', is a must-try! I haven't experienced any major issues with my orders and the wait staff has always been friendly and accommodating. Just remember, it's primarily a takeout spot, so manage your expectations regarding atmosphere. Still, it’s worth the visit if you love well-made sushi. I’ll definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Buddha Fish exceeded my expectations! The moment I stepped inside, I was greeted with the aroma of fresh ingredients. I ordered their Omakase and I was blown away by the variety and freshness of their fish; it reminded me of the meals I've had in high-end sushi spots in Japan! Each piece was crafted with attention to detail, bringing out audacious flavors that felt authentic yet innovative at the same time. The owner was incredibly friendly, taking the time to talk about his inspirations and background in sushi. The only drawback was that it’s a takeout only place, which might be an issue for some looking for a full dining experience, but they’ve partnered with a poke shop next door to allow for some seating. It’s perfect for a cozy night in or an occasion to impress friends with something unique. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who appreciates truly good sushi with a creative twist! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really anticipating a great experience based on all the reviews, but it was a mixed bag. The sushi was undoubtedly fresh, but I found the flavor a bit lacking, especially compared to what I’d expect from a place like this. The service was okay; I felt a bit rushed during my order. Even though I had high hopes, I wouldn’t say I’ll be returning regularly unless I hear better things in the future. " (*Curated Review*)
