How It Works
Find
Search by location, city, or ZIP. Filter by grade, price, style (omakase, Edomae, AYCE, conveyor), and even by a specific fish or roll. List and map views.
Rate
Grade the restaurant overall on the A+ to E Hounds scale — add optional marks for fish quality, rice, knife work, freshness, value and more only if you want to. Then grade the individual pieces you ate.
Roll
Every grade feeds the rankings — Best Omakase, Best Nigiri, Best Otoro, Best Value — built from real reviews, with the review count always shown.
Grades down to the piece
Most review apps stop at the restaurant. SushiHounds grades the restaurant and the individual items — so a place with mediocre rolls but transcendent otoro shows up where it should.
- Otoro NigiriA+
- Hamachi NigiriA
- UniB+
- Salmon NigiriA−
- Spicy Tuna RollB
Fish names are normalized — rate "yellowtail" or "hamachi," "fatty tuna" or "otoro," and it lands on the same item.

Built from real, aggregated reviews — never editorial guesses. A few of them:

- Best Omakase Under $100
