Samurai Sushi, Midtown
6 people recommend, 1 warns against itvia r/nashville8 comments cited below
What people say, in short
Several people recommend Samurai Sushi, a chain with more than one outlet: one diner calls it their regular go-to for sushi, one commenter calls it the best option in Midtown and another agrees, and one diner who visited the Germantown outlet strongly endorses it. One commenter thinks its long run points to good food. Less enthusiastic views: one commenter says it has declined over the years, and one likes the original Elliston Place spot as much for its dive-bar feel as for the sushi. Praise for the Germantown outlet may not describe the Midtown one.
