Izmi Sushi Bar

Izmi is a totally solid and delicious sushi choice in the middle of Santa Fe. I had the Green Chili roll (yummy!) with seaweed salad. (generous portion!) My husband had the sushi combo, which was also good. The service was efficient and great, despite a sign saying they are short staffed right now. The restroom was a little dark, but clean and well stocked with essentials.

First time here. Service was not bad, and the food was good. The atmosphere is upscale and calm like an upscale location should be. They have remodeled, so the pictures are not correct. It is white inside now. Piano music playing.

Very fresh ingredients, tad bit on the pricey end, slow service (lack of staff unfortunately), miso soup costs $3 as is white rice being the cheapest while the Taos roll (baked lobster) was $18, but was very hospitable and friendly and not too busy. Feels fairly authentic but nothing like Izanami up the road. I'd say it is above average for most places though it is average for most places in downtown Santa Fe. My friend noted that our Red Dragon roll was made differently the second time. I noticed it was made special the first time (different but better than from the menu), and was done normally the second time (following the menu). The fish is very fresh and everything tasted very professionally done. I especially enjoyed the unagi, as well as our sashimi and appetizers (chef's choice).

Izmi, is located just off the Plaza, so not jammed pack with people. Parking is available out front or at the east end of the block. We started with a bowl of miso soup(good). We split a spicy tuna salad. There's definitely enough for two. I highly recomend. The salad greens were fresh, and the spicy tuna was outstanding. Next we ordered a variety of rolls. All were very good and very fresh. We also ordered a spicy tuna hand roll (very good) Here where it gets exciting. The Yellowtail Kama, absolutely on point. The chef hit this one out of the park. This is a must order. You will not be disappointed! The only, and I mean, the reason I gave the food 4 stars, the rice. The rice was a bit under cooked, giving a bit of crunchy texture. It could've been an off day for the rice cooker lol. However, all in all we enjoyed Izmi.

Amazing! Getting sushi in the middle of the desert is always iffy but this place was great! The sushi was delicious, the service was great, and the prices were actually very reasonable and actually less than comparable sushi restaurants. Definitely recommend!

Stopped in for a quick bite. New remodel is nice. Yummy dinner..Red on red roll was excellent, Shrimp tempura (with the best tempura onion ring ever tasted) and sunomono salad. Service was friendly and efficient!! I will be back!!

Great place. I’ve been a fan since before the remodel and even before they moved to this location. It’s only gotten better with time. I’m still making new discoveries on the menu. The sashimi salad I had today was absolutely divine. Highly recommend.
