"I made a reservation for 13 at Zumi Sushi for a post-graduation lunch with my loud Nicaraguan family. Not only did Zumi Sushi accept that large of a reservation (many places wouldn't), but they were also really nice and accommodating when another family member showed up at the last minute. The food was fantastic, even the kids liked it. I really can't stress how good the service was (did I mention the loud Nicaraguan family? that poor server). 10/10 would dine again."

"We started with a few rolls, which were warmer in temp than they should have been. The Pacific Queen was pretty good and the White dragon was okay. I never had escarpone (sp?). The rolls were were okay. We eat a lot of sushi. You can get get better and more affordable sushi at Sake in Cool Springs. Had Pad Thai and red curry dish for main courses. Pad Thai was a bit dry, but curry dish was great.

Might go back again. Good to try once."

"Not sure how I hadn't been to this place as I absolutely love sushi. Before this we have had some pretty mediocre sushi in Nashville, including at the quite overpriced Virago. Prior to coming here our other favorite spot had been Ichiban down on 2nd but Zumi had better prices, a larger special roll selection, and better appetizer choices. Gotta love the ahi tuna appetizer which comes with a solid amount of ahi plus instead of wasting space below with some lettuce they fill it with seaweed salad, in essence this is 2 great appetizers for the price of 1. I had the tropical crunch and starburst rolls, both of which were awesome and I recommend. Zumi is now definitely going to be my go-to sushi in Nashville."

"The perfect casual sushi spot. The vibe is relaxed and the food is delicious. The food comes quickly and the prices are relatively cheap! I would recommend for a casual dinner with girlfriends or a meal before heading over to Belcourt!"
