Reviews for Shokai Sushi in Burlington, IA

Food was pretty good, but they could fix a few things. My yellowtail portion size was huge, but the rice under was too small and... so it kep falling off. There was entirely too much sauce on my tiger roll, I had to scrape quite a bit off to be able to enjoyit. As for the experience itself, the tables were horribly slanted, the chairs uncomfortable, and the hours posted here arewrong. Also, who charges a fee for credit card payment in 2022???? Read more

Omg. Just tried the chicken for the first time. To die for!! Love this place!

Ordered $40 in sushi and they couldn?t even put wasabi or ginger on the side. It?s a sushi place what the heck?! Haven?t been in... the area for a couple years and I was excited to come back here, never again!! Read more

I tried to call in a carry out order and the phone was busy for over an hour. Went in to place our order and the staff was... standing around chatting with ZERO customers in the restaurant. We placed our order and were told it would be 15 minutes. Ittook 25. We also ordered extra giner AND paid more for it. We were given zero ginger or wasabi. The rolls were also throwncarelessly in the container. We live an hour away and were out of town and were 10 minutes out of town when I realized we had nowasabi or ginger. We turned back around. We got to the restaurant at 1:47 and they had the doors locked. They close at 2! Weknocked on the door and luckily someone came and gave us what we ordered. My 3 rolls and a sushi pizza appetizer plus extraginger were $44. I will never go back. Horrible horrible experience! Read more

Great place for lobster rolls. Always busy, it's a 50/50 if they're going to roll the sushi properly. Sometimes they mistake the... orders quite a bit. Cool atmosphere halfway decent service. Read more

If you love sushi, you owe it to yourself to try Shokai in Burlington, IA. If you still think sushi is raw fish you're wrong.... Sushi is rice and it is delicious. Raw fish is sashimi and it too is amazing. This man does it all using seafood, chicken, beefand vegetables in creative and masterful ways. I've tried almost everything on the menu and it is all great with reasonableprices and good service. I just wish they were open for lunch on Saturdays. Read more

I've eaten here 3 times. Each time something different. Each time the food was fresh, delicious and unique. Sat at the bar and... it was busy most often. I, unlike the other reviewer, would give the Crab Rangoon a solid "3.5? Read more

The yorokobi shrimp is to die for. I love fresh sushi, there's a reason their egg rolls always sell out, and I have never had a... bad meal here. Read more
