Delicious Everytime. The flavor is consistent everytime. The service was good and took care of us. Be prepared to order online, this service makes it simple and clear. Looking for a fun city vibe sushi this is your place. Located close to the capital with many shops surrounded.

What a pleasant experience! This is located in the historical Reed Opera House on the second floor. The nigiri was tasty! The Baked Mussel I will be having again, and I have to recommend! Where I sat was by the many wide window seats looking over court and liberty street. Like a scene from a film,the atmosphere was really unique and excellent for a date! (If they like sushi) Very open yet romantic. I loved the Italian music playing and the brick interior. Thank you to the professional young ladies who served me and made this restaurant the sushi place I’ll be visiting again.

Easily some of the best sushi in the Salem area! I’ve had it several times now, and it always tastes delicious and fresh, it’s prepared quickly, and I think it’s well-priced for sushi! I’ve only had it to go, so I don’t know what the in-restaurant presentation is like, but even when packed to go, the food looks good. I highly recommend trying this place out!

Such a great place. Quiet and top floor to see downtown and enjoy your meal. The staff were great. The food was so good I think this is Salem's best kept secret for sushi. It's one of the top 3 in Salem. I don't know why it's so good but it's delicious. This is definitely my new "Go To" sushi. With or without family it's enjoyable either way. I highly recommend it. I will start going here more. And shopping at cute little shops all around it. Very fun to even go for a day to browse new things and eat.

This place has some of the best views of downtown Salem. If you like people watching, & sushi (delicious!). I was a little thrown at first by there online credit card ordering but it's actually very convenient

Cute location but was a little tricky to find within the mall/market area. I had a rainbow roll and some nigiri. Seared salmon and tuna nigiri were the highlight of the plate. Ordering and payment are via app, only real issue with that is tip needs to be determined before anything is actually brought to your table. Not a knock on 503 Sushi, really, but with the way the ordering and payment are done.

This is my go to sushi spot in Salem! I love the miso soup, teriyaki bowls, and the Vegas roll is my favorite every time!
