    This is my new favorite sushi place bc the prices can’t be beat! For lunch (even on the weekends) you can get 3 rolls, a soup, and a side for only 15. Such a good price. Lots of sushi roll options to choose from! I got the miso soup and it was really good!!! I definitely will be coming back here to get my inexpensive sushi fix! Place was a little tight but it’s okay. But the service was great!

    Sushi UNI – Your Friendly Neighborhood Sushi Shop! The BEST sushi in the KC metro, hands down. Located in Lenexa, KS, Sushi UNI is a true hidden gem. Whether I’ve come for lunch or dinner, the experience has always been outstanding. The sushi is consistently fresh, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious. The staff are incredibly friendly and make you feel right at home. I’ve introduced several friends to this spot, and now they’re hooked too. If you’re anywhere near Lenexa and craving sushi, this place is a must.

    Had the BEST first experience at sushi uni! The food was delicious, service was top notch, and the lunch special price for a salad, crab Rangoon, and 2 rolls was unbeatable. Will definitely be coming back soon!
