Tokyo Sushi

I eat a lot of sushi. Once a week at least. This place has already made pickup and takeout containers to go, or they will make to order. Standard sushi. Nothing to write home about yet. I’m sure I will visit again. I wonder if it would be better if it wasn’t in this market. Friendly and kind staff.

I have always selected from their refrigerator of always fresh pre-​made boxes. They have a good selection of rolls, piece sushi, and combo boxes to choose from. A good variety standard sides as well Gyoza, seaweed salad, edamame and the like. If you arrive later in the lunch time the selection may be somewhat picked over. Just grab and go when you are watching the time. They also have counter service if you prefer to dine at a more leisurely pace on made to order offerings. The price is very reasonable in comparison to other sushi joints.

As good quality sushi/​sashimi you can have anywhere, save maybe Maui & Japan. Right by my corporate office in Wilmington, DE. (Via the lovely River Walk), in a market of sorts. Love this concept. AND THE PORTIONS!!! Normally you get a thin 2″ length at the most, piece of fish on your nigiri. Same with slices of sashimi. Here, you get a generously sliced, 3−4″ portion! In addition, the spicy yellowtail, cone-​shaped hand roll I got was nearly the size of my forearm. (Ok, I jest, but it was a monster)!
I also ordered some great octopus sashimi, mackerel nigiri, & white tuna nigiri. Very good lunch!

If you like dragon rolls this is the place to go. They are huge. I love this place. Miso soup is great.
never had a bad experience and the fish is filled with flavor

I have fallen in love with this sushi place at the Riverfront market. I usually get the shrimp or veggie maki roll made for me and I love it I have even tired the brown rice a couple of times and it was hard to get use to but i like it. They do have some sushi already made if your in a bit of a time crunch but for me I love it when its made it seems fresher that way.
I always swing by the Riverfront market and when I do I make sure this is my first stop.

3.5 — maybe even 4 stars.
This is the Tokyo Sushi stand in the Riverfront Market.
Today I had a roll combo — 4 pieces each of Salmon, Tuna and Yellowtail — for $ 9.95.
I also have an order of microwave-​heated gyoza for $ 3.50. (Your standard frozen gyoza — tasty but in no way mindblowing).
Fish was fresh and tasty, but cut unevenly (the nigiri were a MESS!). Reminds me of supermarket sushi — but a hair better because the fish is, indeed, fresh.
Just amateurishly presented.
But hey — It’s Wilmington, DE in a market. For that you might give it 5 stars!!!

I absolutely love this place. Fresh sushi, affordable prices, and probably the best seafood I’ve had… all in walking distance of both my apartment and the Wilmington Riverfront. If you don’t feel like dropping $ 50 – 100 at Mikimotos on Washington Street, head over to Tokyo Sushi, with $ 20 in your pocket and you’ll be more than pleased. A+

This is my favorite in Delaware. The menu is simple and perfectly executed. Rolls are reasonably priced, artfully made and are PACKED with fish! I do believe they use flash-​frozen sashimi grade fish, but the color, texture, taste and smell are perfect. Easily the best spicy tuna I have ever had. I think the secret is the kewpie mayo along w/​the right amount of sriracha and sichimi powder. Frankly, I can’t get enough of this place and have at times, eaten it every day for lunch for weeks. I’ve gone as far as to pick it up for dinner AFTER having had it for lunch. Their introduction of short-​grain brown sushi rice has been great!
The Sushiman, YC Park is amazing to watch. I’ve seen him skin a cucumber with a sword-​like sushi knife in no time flat, in a single ribbon and then continue to shave it into a nori thin sheet for his tuna naruto roll roll. The temaki are as big as a carnival iced cream cone. You can barely finish one of them, there is so much fish in there. The nigiri are beautiful. Uniform pieces of fresh fish, perfectly perched on the best sushi rice I’ve ever had (just the right amount of vinegar and sugar).
Skip the newly opened Kooma. Save Mikimotos for a night out, but go to Tokyo for lunch! The owners are lovely, so support them in this tough economy. If you must eat sushi, eat it here!
Why not 5 stars? I have to save it for places that serve the local fresh fish, plucked out of the water that morning. Let me know if you find a place that does!
