Sushi Jimmi

This food truck comes to my workplace. It is delicious, reasonably priced, and is quickly enough to deliver for a thirty minute lunch.

After months of wanting to try this food truck out, I finally got the chance yesterday! (I tried last week but I’m not so good with directions and with food trucks never having a set location, I ended up lost LOL) Back to the point, the food is absolutely amazing! I had the spicy crawfish nachos, big boy roll, and the godzilla. Jimmi also threw in some appetizers for us and they were even better than expected! (I could never fry a gyoza properly, sigh) I don’t know how many people are usually on duty but the food came out in a timely manner and the girl who took my order was so sweet! If you haven’t tried him yet, please do yourself a favor and get some! His food just has something Osaka and SPR just doesn’t.

Fabulous sushi from the food truck! Very polite and accommodating staff! I highly recommend this place! The Los Angeles Roll is my go to roll. Yummo!

I had been trying to catch up with the truck since I frist heard sbout it. Well today, I caught it and could not have been happier. I had the crawfish nachos and they were awesome. Got the wife the chicken fried rice and she loved it. This is some the best food I have tried and now my favorite food truck!

Had lunch there while they were parked at the Craft and Brew event at Crosstown Arts. It was really good! I’ll definitely eat there again.

This is my favorite food truck in Memphis! Mostly because I love sushi more than anything, but also because it’s pretty unique to this city. Sushi Jimmi updates his location on instagram and facebook, so make sure you’re following one of those to know where he is! He will also post any new menu items that he’ll have that day! I really like that he stays late at night (till 11pm!) on some days because if I’m craving my sushi food truck fix, I know exactly where to go.
There is definitely a variety of items on the menu and it changes depending on what ingredients he has for the day. I’ve tried many of the rolls and can say that each one is HUGE and will definitely fill you up for a meal. If you’ve never tried a deep fried sushi roll, Sushi Jimmi does it pretty well! I’ve also tried the unagi don (barbecued eel over rice), spicy tuna hand roll, and the pork belly skewers. All were super yummy. One thing I wasn’t a fan of — cream cheese in almost every sushi roll. But! You can ask for the roll without cream cheese which is great.
Wait times can be long during lunch and dinner rush hour, but that is definitely to be expected because of how popular he is! Make sure to bring some cash if you don’t want to spend extra on credit card fee (they use square). Service is great and Jimmi is always friendly!
I’m knocking one star down for price (it’s on the expensive side — a roll can be upwards of $ 14) and a too «americanized» sushi vibe. Sometimes I like my sushi traditional. I would enjoy it better if there were some simpler options. All in all, I don’t have any hesitations about going to Sushi Jimmi when I’m super hungry and need some quick fix sushi!

First of all I love the tuna nachos! The short ribs were killer! And tonight I picked up some phở that HIT DA SPOT! Now I can’t wait for some Habachi Rice to go with my Phở all winter long! Great Job Jimmy!
You guys have got to try Jimmy out! He’s a tremendous family man trying to live his dream of serving up amazing sushi and Asian fashion! You won’t be disappointed!!!

I’m not gonna lie, the idea of food truck sushi spooks me. But SJ makes a strong impression. Their currently limited menu tends to combine an eclectic mix of sushi rolls with Japanese twists on Mexican staples.
The rolls tend to be large (I never fill up on one roll at the restaurants; I did here), complex, and will run you approximately $ 7 – 12. The roll offerings have varied pretty widely in a handful of visits. I suspect they’re still working their menu out.
Besides their rolls, the Mexican dishes have been fun and work very well. I’ve had sushi tuna tacos, crawfish nachos (served on Doritos!), and jalapeño poppers (highly recommended).
