Troy's Sapporo Sushi A Hit With Diners

TROY, MI — A new Troy restaurant is getting solid reviews. Sapporo Sushi opened at 1913 E. Big Beaver Road about two months ago and features a wide array of sushi dishes, according to patrons. Three recent reviews on Yelp all gave the restaurant five out of five stars.

“This place is amazing!!!! :),” wrote Bobby H. from Clinton Township wrote in a May 28 review. “We were greeted so kindly as soon as we came in, the sushi was very fresh and service was excellent. This will be my go to sushi place whenever I'm in the area.”

On May 25, a Sterling Heights reviewer shared similar thoughts. “My friends and I have been experimenting with new and different sushi restaurants, trying to find the best place in SE Michigan,” Alex A. wrote. “Let me tell you, this place deserves that 5/5 star rating. Service was better than average sushi joint. Atmosphere and service was amazing and friendly.”

Sapporo Sushi is open Monday - Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., Friday - Saturday from 11 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 10 p.m. Prices range from $11-$30, according to Yelp.

Only one out of five reviews gave the restaurant less than five stars. On April 28, Molida K. of Sterling Heights gave Sapporo generally good marks, but one dish wasn’t quite up to her standards.

“I was pleased with the cajun volcano and sunflower rolls,” she wrote on Yelp. “However my husband ordered the eel tempura roll and I was not impressed with it. It was deep fried and mushy with literally just eel inside rice and nori. Other than that, we thought dinner was a hit.”
