Small sushi joint located in what used to be a fast food restaurant (Kenny Rogers Chicken was once in same location). The service at Susha Ya is always cordial and friendly, and so far - everything I've tried has been fresh and delicious. The plating of the sushi is very artful and beautiful. It's almost like the Sushi Ya reads these reviews, because they really are striving to become one of the best sushi spots in Anchorage. With as much competition as there is around here, it may take a while for them to take top honors.. but I have to give them credit for trying! :o) Pros: Beautiful dishes, fresh product Cons: Prices aren't outrageous, but better deals can be found

I went to Sushi Ya from a friend's recommendation and sat at the Sushi Bar. The decor is quaint but friendly and the service was reasonably quick when I was there. I wasn't impressed with the prices compared to sushi restaurants in NYC, Florida, Seattle, and the Midwest but everything is more expensive here in Alaska. Portions were generous and the chef gave me additional Nigiri at the end of my meal as a way of thanking me for depleating my bank account. Pros: Fresh Sushi, Decent Service Cons: Not the best value for the price.

Well a friend of mine and I stopped in to order a few sushi rolls to-go. first, I must say its very beautiful small and quaint, but very inviting. However we left and came back about 25min- 30min later and they hadn'yt even started our rolls. I was a little dissapointed that they were not try very hard to hook a first tie customer...Not sure I would want to be waited on here if I every did want to sit down and eat in the restaurant....But the rolls were completely opposite of the service...Terrific!!! Pros: Great specialty rolls, parking Cons: small inside, had two chefs and still very slow service, rude when asked for extra soy sauce

I've been here about 5 times and the service has gotten progressively worse every time. One time I was there, I watched a couple come in 30 minutes after me, and get their food before me! And I hadn't ordered anything other than 2 rolls and sashimi. I ended up there for over an hour & half! But the food is the second best sushi I've had in town. So if you have plenty of time to spare, it's worth the try. Pros: execellent rolls Cons: slooooow service

I have been going to this resteraunt since it was named Joy terriaki. I Liked it better when it only served chinese food. Now they are mainly a sushi resteraunt with a limited variety of other dishes. Sushi is a little expensive for me considering I don't care for uncooked fish. I like the california roll, but that is about it. I don't like the fact that you can only get white rice with meals now and have to order fried rice seperetly. If you are a hard core sushi fan than this place is for you. They also serve saki and sappora beer, which makes this a nice place to meet before heading out for the clubs. I would not reccomend this place if you want a variety of japenese and chinese dishes. PROS: Nice environment with great sushi CONS: Not a large variety of chinese dishes
