Some of the best sushi we have tasted! It is on the more expensive side so I was a bit unsure at first however I feel it was worth the cost. The service was friendly and efficient, can’t wait to return.

I've had the pleasure of dining at St. Sushi multiple times, most recently in August 2023 and every visit reaffirms why it's my go-to sushi restaurant in town. From the atmosphere to the food, everything is top-notch. As soon as you walk in, you're enveloped...by the authentic Japanese interior, capturing the essence of traditional Japan. The decor provides a calming backdrop that elevates the dining experience, making it not just a meal but an entire sensory experience. The menu offers a myriad of options, suitable for all kinds of sushi lovers—whether you're a fan of Nigiri, Sashimi, or inventive Maki rolls. What keeps me coming back is not just the variety but the undeniable freshness of the food. The staff at St. Sushi are the cherry on top of the perfect dining experience. They're always welcoming, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, which is a real bonus if you're looking to try something new. Though the food and experience are high-end, I always feel like I'm getting excellent value for the quality of the meal and service. St. Sushi is, without a doubt, the best sushi restaurant in town. I've been many times and can't recommend it enough. If you're a sushi aficionado or even a first-timer looking for an exceptional experience, don't miss out on this local gem.More

This Place is absolutely horrible the food is too expensive and you have to wait 1/2 hours to eat and it’s not even that good the waiters are sleepy and they are not kind I really don’t know how to explain the badness of this...place and the last thing is that My Diet Coke was absolutely undrinkableMore

The sushi wasn’t anything special, but perfectly ok. The sesame ice cream however was amazing! My other half had tempura vegetables and katsu chicken - I think they used thigh meat as it was very fatty. Flavours were good though. Service was friendly but pretty...inattentive - we had to get up twice to ask a waiter to come over to our table and it didn’t seem that busy. Prices were higher than I expected, doesn’t feel like great value given other sushi places in Newcastle. Probably won’t go back any time soon, but still a good option.More

Walked in this Japanese restaurant and wow what a surprise. The service and food was just as you would expect. I cannot recommend this place enough. The food was outstanding. This restaurant sets a benchmark for sushi. I will be back next time I am...in townMore

Food was uninspired. Price was more than double what I'd expect to pay for the quality and amount of food. Drink prices were just daft. Avoid, you can get better than this 2 min walk away.

How this place isn't further up the list is beyond me - by far the best sushi in Newcastle by a long shot (and this doesn't even take into account their extensive selection of hot food). Ordered a variety of sushi between us - all...was fresh and to a high standard. Rice was soft and protein / rice ratio was very generous. Confused about negative reviews re: service. We found the staff to be polite and attentive.More

The service was so bad, I didn’t pay for the “optional” service charge because one of the waitresses was told my son off with a bad attitude, I can’t believe the waitress came to me after she didn’t receive the service charge and argue with...me, can’t believe how arrogant the waitress was, never ever had this experience before in a restaurantMore

Change of plan led to last minute phone around to find a table. Friendly staff, lovely food and great atmosphere. We (family of 3) thoroughly enjoyed our evening.

Can't fault it, so delicious, lots of choice and not overpriced as some sushi/japanese restaurants can be. Would have been good to be warned of the limited dining time when booking (1.5hrs), but as it happened it made no difference on this occasion. Staff were...generally friendly, were attentive and despite being told there would be a 40min wait for sushi it actually arrived much quicker than that. Plenty of vegan and veggie options, classics and some interesting things we hadn't seen before and tried - all excellent. Cocktails were also really good.More

Excellent evening here. The staff were very accommodating getting 5 of us sat down despite having no booking and then despite our large order, they prepared it very quickly. I gave it a 4 rather than 5 as they had run out of draft beer...and the restaurant was quite chilly but to be fair, it was a really cold evening. I would definitely go back!More

For all future costumers: don’t order a bottle of wine if you won’t finish it at the same time with your food because THEY WILL make you leave the table and go! Me and my friend went for some sushi and we ordered a bottle...of wine, the food wasn’t bad, but it definitely could’ve been better. We were having a good time and enjoying conversation when the servers started to push for payment, they had asked before when we were almost done with the sushi order if we wanted dessert and we weren’t sure at the moment, but were thinking about it when one came with the receipt, so we thought “well looks like they won’t give us a chance to have dessert after all” Then another server came with a pdq asking for cards straight away, so we paid, didn’t check with us anything, just had us pay. And then another server (the one they referred as “the senior waiter” came to the table and told us we had to leave because the next reservation was there” (Baring in mind there was an empty table on the other side of the salon and the restaurant’s second level had several empty tables by the way) When I explain we were still having the bottle of wine we had purchased with dinner, she said she could put it on a bag for us, when I explained we didn’t want to take the wine but to finish it at the restaurant. So then I had to poor the remaining wine on the bottle (that was a whole full glass left) and she made us stand on the “bar counter” to finish it, which is really just a tiny space for service area with a petite fish tank IT WAS SO RUDE! It’s almost like she was annoyed we didn’t go in that moment, then while standing I asked another server why they made us stand up to finish the wine when there were empty tables, after a while they offered us to sit again on another table on a corner, and I asked for a glass of water that was received with a smile and an instant eye rolling upset expression (from the senior waiter) and that of course I never got. Definitely wanted us gone, maybe they thought we finished eating and were just holding a table, I don’t know, but definitely not the way of finding out with your costumers. There must be better sushi places in Newcastle where service is better and friendly, NOT GOING BACK TO THIS RESTAURANT AGAIN.More
