I have been a Sushi lover for over 20 years, having dined on some of the best while living in Northern California. I've tried several local Sushi restaurants in the Lee's Summit area and would highly recommend Mr Sushi. The fish is always so fresh, portion sizes are generous and its usually not too crowded. Only negative I've experienced in the times we have eaten here is one evening when there were too many people for the waitress to service effectively. The flip side to the name is that it is also a HibachiI style restaurant on the other side! That section is always packed and the aroma as you walk in is delightful.
