Better quality sushi may be found elsewhere

by JenAO

If you want great sushi, try another place. The Korean chirashi I ordered was comprised of what seemed to be scraps of fish not used for nigiri; the fish itself was sinewy and not the quality to which I am accustomed. I paid 16.95 for this dish and got very little fish at all. I also ordered some very good maki called "sunkist". I would recommend it, but only for those who like at least a 5 on a "spicy hot" scale of 1-10. Compared to Tabasco, I found it to be spicier. Overall, even though I got very good and friendly service, at those prices I expect better quality and more fish.

• Pros: out of the way location, quiet
• Cons: prices are high for the quality offered

BEST SUSHI EVER

by tmund

Koto Buki is by far the best kept secret in Pittsburgh. They have the best spicy tuna and the best ginger dressing by far. Not to mention the freshest sushi. The atmosphere is wonderful and Mr. & Mrs. Cho are great! Even though they are extremely busy they always take the time to greet their customers upon entering and exiting. There is something for everyone - their tempura is the best, all of their teriyaki dishes are excellent and their Sukiyaki is fantastic (the best I've ever had). I have been a customer of Koto Buki's for over 10 years now and will continue. Actually going there tonight!

• Pros: Food, Parking, Ambience, Service
• Cons: None
