There’s always a great selection in the cabinet, with plenty of PYO sushi and a wide variety of sushi packs. The shop is bright, clean, and full of cheerful, friendly staff.

Like most towns around New Zealand – Nelson has a plethora of Sushi stores, some great – others not so great.
“194 Eatery” falls well within the category of the former, this place is amazing!
Something which I am preferring from my Sushi eating experience lately is the ability to actually SELECT the individual sushi pieces, rather than buy a predefined 6 or 12 pack.
194 Eatery lets you do this, and from a wide range of amazing sushi options.
There is a good selection of choices, including but certainly not limited to:
Salmon based Maki, branching out to the popular avocado and cream-cheese combination (a personal favourite) to Inari topped with teriyaki chicken and kewpie mayo. Nigiri topped with prawn and salmon options as well as an oven packed with Panko fried prawns, Takoyaki (Octopus balls) and Chicken Katsu.
All of the foods I have mentioned above are just a small example of what is on offer, and if I were to try and list them all I would be typing all night!
All of the produce used in these dishes is fresh and of the finest quality. This tells me that the staff who prepare the food are very experienced, and treat the food which they create with a dedication and care worthy of the most discerning of patrons.
The layout of the restaurant is ideal, with an ‘island’ containing the fresh sushi options placed down the MIDDLE of the restaurant, allowing diners to walk down each side of the display, selecting their options from either side which keeps the queue for food moving. There is plenty of seating also with a couple of seats outside if the weather is suitable.
The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable and we were provided with REAL wasabi, ginger and soy sauce.
My wife and I really enjoyed our lunch here, and will certainly be back.
If you love sushi, go here. If you don’t love sushi, go here too – maybe you were mistaken!

Various options for various demand. Clean and nice place, seating outside is many and quite cool. Vegetarian/vegan/gf guests could be looked after well. Sea salad is so cool, can eat heaps. For students, rice ball or small bento is reasonable in price and good in taste. Good place for a quick brunch/lunch in general!

Always love to eat here. I have dined-in here for several times but on my recent visit here with my friend, we’ve ordered the rice bowls and they were amazing!! Other than the rice bowls, my usual order here is the teriyaki chicken rice. Definitely not my last visit!

Worst sushi I ever had. The only fish I saw was tasteless raw salmon, a small prawn and tinned tuna. There was lots of chicken rolls and fried on small skewers.

I write articles for Uniquely Nelson website and had to taste the food here before I wrote the story. I was blown away and it felt very healthy. The staff were very positive and I can tell the culture here is excellent from the kitchen to the front of house. Im a fan and will be back!

My first trip to nelson even I have been living in Queenstown for ten years.
Today we had a terrible flat tire on the way back, but we didn’t have time to pick up the sushi we ordered at 194 Eatery . The staff at the sushi restaurant delivered it to the hotel for us, and the hotel Nelson staff saved it for us and called to remind us.
I’m eating the Best Sushi in the hotel room now.
Best Sushi ever and best place ever.
Thank you very much for your help. I will come back to nelson and definitely have more sushi in your shop.
This is a very difficult time. There are staff shortages everywhere. I fully understand your hard work. Because I’m a Courier, this is my first vacation in three years.
I will be back!!!
Really appreciate for your services.

There foods were great. You had a sushi collection to choose and eat from along with their salad bowls. They do make smoothies as well.

I have found human hair in my food twice from Aki Sushi! Once was a head hair that was there when the sushi was made so when it was chopped up a hair was in every piece. Today I found a pubic/facial hair in my rice tray. I am worried about the safety procedures of this business. I can’t say the service is always good too, sometimes the people are very nice but can be very rude too. I will be taking my business elsewhere.
