At first I tried it beacuse its just 20 meters to walk from my apparment and really cheap. I walked past many times before I walked in becase it's just a takeaway with simple standard. But this place is really great! I have eaten sushi for a long time, tried many places i Oslo(Alex included) so I am experienced.

It must be hard coming from NY being used to lots of fantastic sushi and then have to settle with "Oslo standard"... Every time we go to LA almost all the sushi bars are japanese run and absolutely amazing and then coming home to the mediocrity of both fish, rice AND craftsmanship of the (mostly) sushi wanna-be-chefs here... Very sorry to hear that you were not happy about Sporveisgata, (btw you should write that as a comment on the Sushi House-post, it might make the people running it get their act together. I know they read this blog... :) House of Sushi (Majorstua) we completely slaughtered here, so that was not by my recommendation at least. :) I think my favorite take-out sushi places are (right now pr. Feb 2009): <li>Sushi House, Sporveisgata </li> <li>Sushi & Thaimat, St.Hanshaugen</li> <li>Grand sushi - above Carl Berners Plass (Trondheimsveien)</li> Sakana sushi i Prinsensgate I have had some positive experiences with, but also gotten some bad fish there, so it varies I guess. I have not been to Sushi and Thai Mat in Torshov. Maybe you want to write a guest review? I will be going there at some point too.

I think my favorite take-out sushi places are (right now pr. Feb 2009):

  • Sushi House, Sporveisgata
  • Sushi & Thaimat, St.Hanshaugen
  • Grand sushi - above Carl Berners Plass (Trondheimsveien)

    • Sakana sushi i Prinsensgate I have had some positive experiences with, but also gotten some bad fish there, so it varies I guess.

    I have not been to Sushi and Thai Mat in Torshov. Maybe you want to write a guest review? I will be going there at some point too. Let us know when you find your favorite place!

So first of all thanks for this fantastic sushi map!! Makes it much easier when the longing starts kicking in! Now, unfortunately I have to say that I have been quite disappointed with some of the places that have been recommended here. Both House of Sushi (Majorstua) and Sushi House (Sporveisgata) had very bad quality fish which was tough to chew. If you dont have good consistency, then you cant really call it good sushi - irrespective of the price (although House of Sushi was quite pricy). Also, the Sushi at Sushi House was decorated with sesame seeds - looked good but it really kills the fresh taste of the fish.... Then I tried Sushi and Thai Mat in Torsov, which was significantly better. Clean place, good size and consistency, a bit too mushy rice and it didnt really taste much. But although it was better than the previous two it was absolutely mediocre by New York standards. Tonight is another sushi night - perhaps this time a true pearl is revealed! Hi,

En kamerat anbefalte meg å ta veien fra Oslo til Asker for å sjekke ut den nye restauranten Art of Sushi i Asker. I utganspunktet syntes jeg det var litt langt å dra, men kameraten min mente at det var den beste sushien i Norge så jeg reiste ut for å teste. Jeg kan med trygghet si at det absolutt var verdt kjøreturen ut til Asker, for det var noe av det beste jeg har spist. Også var maten laget veldig stilig. Hadde vert fint om noen andre kunne ta turen for å sjekke også. Jeg er muligens ikke den som best kan samenlikne sushien fra Art of Sushi med andre steder. Men jeg syntes i allefall det var vanvittig bra. Hei,

Its a great take-out place. There are to places, i have only ordered take out at the one in VIka. This one is really small, but they are renewing the place now so i guess its getting bigger. The restaurant in Briskeby is probably more suitable for enjoying the food there. Good site! Im glad pregnant women can eat sushi now:):) Hi. Have you tried Sushi of life? Its a great take-out place.
