I have been going to Sushi Inaka for over 10 years now.(Roughly since the Sushi Inaka has opened.) The sushi is high quality especially compared to the competition. I always try other sushi places around, without a doubt, Sushi Inaka remains an excellent place to eat. If you live locally, and dont want to drive 30-40+ minutes into Boston and struggle to find parking, Sushi Inaka is perfect for you. Their pricing may seem high, but comparing to their competition, Im more then willing to pay their prices for quality fish and friendly service. Most of their competition will either overprice their sushi, give you poor sushi for a cheaper price, or give you smaller sizes for a similar price. You get what you pay for, and if you want good sushi, Sushi Inaka is the place to be. I dont recall ever having complained, because I have never had a problem. Sushi Inaka is excellent. Keep in mind, no matter where you go, sushi is pricey, so if you go crazy and order a ton of fancy rolls, dont be surprised at the bill. I recommend mixing and matching a lighter meal, with a handroll and/or a few rolls. Youll love the food!!! Thats why I keep going back year after year!!!

After reading other raving reviews about this restaurant, my son and I expected some authentic and tasty Japanese food. We were initially suprised by the prices which were high by our standards even for Japanese food but we thought it would be worth it. Service was slow to begin with, but We eventually put our orders in for chicken teriyaki 15.75 and Korean beef stirfry 16. My son said that he had much better in the past. His disappointment, however, was nothing compared with mine over the beef. In contrast with what the menu said, the beef was very sinewy and simply tasted old. I tried to explain to the manager that her dish was nearly inedible. She eventually after the bill but only yelling at me that I was the first person to complain in 13 years. While I was surprised by her comment, I did not doubt after experiencing her threatening demeanor and sub par cuisine.

The food is excelente BUT, WHY IS THAT WOMAN SO UNFRIENDLY? I think she is the wife of the chef and co-owner? She is just nasty. We keep going because we love the food but she is so unfriendly. My husband and I normally take it to go so we dont have to deal with her. Every time, we have to stay there and eat. We are sorry because she is just not a people person. She is in the wrong business.

This is the worst restaurant I had in N. Andover area. Overly priced with some fake Japanese/Korean food. We came to the place when we followed the ranking on the web. After we tried those terrible food, we were so disappointed that we would like to raise the awareness.

This is a lovely restaurant with DELICIOUS food. Dont let the strip mall locale fool you. Gosh, this place is a hidden gem! I work in the area, but live down in Boston, and boy, do I wish I had this place in the city! Lawrence is a lucky town to have them!

The sushi menu was small, but Inaka does their own twist on some classic rolls, and they were amazing! Staff was great, prices were reasonable. My only complaint is no liquor, so no specialty drinks! But will definitely go back

I bought an Avocado Salad which was listed for $6.95 on their menu online. I picked up salad and was charged $9.58, and the salad was very small and not worth the money I paid. I will not be buying there again.

I absolutely loved the food! I have been living in Lawrence for 5years and I cannot believe that I waited this long to set foot in this place. I am a new regular patron now. Highly reccomended.

The sushi selection is not as expansive as larger places but what they have is always fresh. Other selections on the menu are also excellent. You must try the Kopdol Bee-beem Bahp

This is the best Sushi place in the area (even if you include Boston, its still in top 3 Id say). Owned and operated by Japanese couple and everything is made to perfection

Clean place. Fast. Tasty, lunch prices are Good. I read a review about this place being expensive, and that is not true. Their price Is average for korean/Japanese food.

Tasty but overpriced teriyaki and bibimbap. I love the hot stone bowl but it was too hot to enjoy for most of the meal. Come on people- get it together.

Great place for lunch or dinner. Maki Rolls and Sashimi were very fresh. The prices are slightly higher then I would expect for the location.

Fast, cheap, adequate. Quality of the sushi varies a bit from visit to visit. Bee Bim Bahp is consistently good.
