Sabaku Sushi

We dined at Sabaku Sushi on our last visit to Moab, and tried to order take-out this trip, but the kitchen was too busy to fill the order which I guess is a good thing for the restaurant. We loved our meal on the last visit, which was why we came back, maybe next time. With all that being said, I would highly recommend this restaurant. The sushi is excellent.

Food was Amazing!!!

When you first step in you will notice this isn't your average sushi house. They have music playing and all the people making sushi are bearded white guys. But don't let this deter you! Me and my wife agree that this place had the best sushi that ether of us has ever eaten.

We set right at the bar which was a great experience due to getting to watch them make everything and as the place calmed down towards closing getting to talk and ask them there suggestions on what to order for our second round of food.

It had been a long day of travel so we were both very hungry and together we shared 2 of the specials they had (oysters & swordfish) along with 6 different rolls (Poison spider, spicy scallop, surf & turf, sunshine & 2 different orders of chef choice). Everything was delicious.

Overall this is a place everyone tourists or local should grab a bite to eat as you won't be disappointed.

We sat at the bar area. We shared several types of sushi. Shrimp tempura was light and crispy. The sauce and rice were really flavorful. Hubby got the maguro nigiri, and he said it was just OK. The fiery furnace was great! The panko crunchies on the outside added great flavor and texture. We ended up ordering a second order of it. The eddie out roll was good, but ended up being too hot for me to finish, so I picked the serrano pepper out of it.

Fantastic Sushi Location In Moab Utah … Beautifully Executed Dinner !!! Perfection in service and taste of food … Meal was made with LOVE ! Thanks …

Amazing vegan options! Had the eddie out, moonflower and mango. It’s so refreshing to have a sushi restaurant have creative options! 11/10 would recommend!

This was a great experience here. Food and drinks are AMAZING. Sushi is deliciously fresh and the special rolls were unique and delicious. Highly recommend the poison spider roll, it was the best sushi roll I’ve ever had. All the added details such as thinly sliced lemon, different dressings, sauces, etc were very special and really made this 5/5 stars. Our reservation was postponed by 20 minutes but that was no problem as the staff called us and let us know as soon as they could. If you have one meal it Moab, let it be this one. Recommend a reservation as the place is small and busy!

Amazing, best gluten free options I have ever ever seen. Beats sushi in Las Vegas. I had complete confidence in ordering safely. Everything was delicious, fresh, and I loved the creative ambiance and menu options.

Best sushi I have ever had. We travel all over and this place is by far the best! So fresh. If u could eat here everyday I would.

Great food, good vibe and friendly service! Excellent vegan options and easy to do gluten free. Super nice and friendly staff, and absolutely incredible food! Loved the vibe of this restaurant and would recommend to anyone looking for creative flavors and great atmosphere!

Food and service are steller! Absolutely phenomenal, everytime! Do your self a favor and try their delicate arch roll and miso cod! 🤤

Love that they have a thoughtful mocktail
menu too!

Truly Moab’s best dinning experience!

Thanks for being awesome, Sabauku!

Super cool and casual fine dine place with great food and service. After a day of difficult hikes, this place might be how you reward yourself. You might need reservation.
We ordered beer, wine, two appetizers, two rolls and dessert and paid around 80usd.
Everything was super delicious and we couldn’t believe that we could find such a great sushi and ceviche and seafood in Moab!

The sushi was amazing and the service spectacular! The food was of the highest quality. They have creative dishes such as the no rice cucumber freestyle roll. It's a 'chef's choice' roll, but they use thinly sliced cucumber instead of rice. I love that because too much rice feels a bit heavy for me. The cucumber free style tonight might have been the best roll I've ever had! So delicious!!!

Rarely order sushi in a mountain town but took a chance and was rewarded with really fresh sushi. Service was excellent and kind. Very friendly. Had one roll with a shisedo pepper in it that was wayyy too hot ( happens occasionally) and was in a mouthful distress! Waitress went to get me some vanilla ice cream ( no charge) to ease my suffering. Now that is service!!

Sushi?! In the middle of the desert! Why yes, some of the best I've ever had. Excellent food and dining experience! As recommended I made reservations and I'm glad I did. The interior is small and intimate, a little dark but clean and welcoming.

What makes them stand out? Sabaku flies in fresh fish several times a week. I mean, this stuff is FRESH. And absolutely delicious!

We started out with hot Gekkeikan traditional sake ($10.00 for an 8 oz.) that was fantastic. We began our meal with House Salads (mixed greens, tomato, cucumber, carrots + house made ginger dressing, $6.00). The dressing was awesome, you'll love it if you like ginger! I wish I could take some home with me. For rolls, I chose a classic Philly Roll (salmon, avocado, red onion + cream cheese and topped with sesame seeds, $12.00). This was probably the best Philly Roll I have yet to eat. There was just the right amount of cream cheese, and the salmon was so smooth and soft like butter. My husband went for a specialty roll, the Poison Spider (fried soft shell crab, spicy mayo, cucumber + avocado topped with scallops, lemon and sriracha, $18.00). It was beautifully set. I admit the crab claws at the ends were a tad intimidating but it added to the presentation. I helped myself to a couple bites and agreed it was remarkable!

I highly recommend stopping in here for fantastic, high quality food for a decent price. I will be back for more!

Great sushi with a LOT of variety.
Waiters are awesome.
If you have patience the food sushi will be good.
A lot of gluten free options
Also get the oreo tempura it's delicious.
Just do a reservation in before coming but the biggest wait I've seen is a hour and a half.

Gluten-free heaven! The sushi was awesome, and so was the house salad with the ginger dressing.

Delicious food and great vibes. Huge selection and amazing vegan options.

Really decent sushi in this area! This place is very popular so good to reserve in advance, but they also provided bar seats. The sashimi is very fresh and sushi is very delicious.

Delicious. Lots of gluten free options, even for the fried food! They got us in without a reservation and service was pretty quick! Rainbow roll was a bit dry, but the shrimp tempura and spider rolls melted in my mouth.

Excellent sushi and wonderful/personable service. Definitely enjoyed their original local takes on sushi roll creations and names. Loved the Dessert Roll. 👍👍
