Review: Sushi Zushi at Funan – A Hidden Gem Worth the Wait



If you’re looking for a fresh sushi fix in the heart of the city, Sushi Zushi at Funan Mall is proving to be a heavyweight contender. Despite being a relatively cozy spot, it’s drawing significant crowds for all the right reasons.

The Experience

The first thing you need to know: arrive early. Even on weekdays, a queue starts forming well before the doors open at 11:30 AM. Because the seating is limited, the initial "first wave" of diners fills the space almost instantly. If you miss that first seating, expect a bit of a wait—but rest assured, the quality makes up for the time spent in line.

The Food

The menu strikes a great balance between high-end freshness and accessible pricing.

  • Fresh Sushi: The raw selection is the star. The fish is sliced generously and tastes incredibly clean, holding up to the standards of much more expensive omakase joints.

  • Buy 1 Get 1 Promo: Keep an eye out for their ongoing promotion on handrolls. It’s a fantastic value deal that allows you to double up on their crisp, seaweed-wrapped delights without breaking the bank.

  • Not a Raw Food Fan? One of the best things about Sushi Zushi is its inclusivity. If you aren't a fan of sashimi, there are plenty of cooked options. From torched (aburi) seafood to hot sides, there is enough variety to satisfy a group with mixed preferences.

Final Verdict: Sushi Zushi offers some of the freshest bites in the area. Whether you’re there for the raw delicacies or the cooked comfort food, it’s a solid 9/10—just make sure you're there by 11:15 AM to snag a seat!
