Best sushi in Bham. A friend recommend this to me and it lived up to the hype. The meat on a rock appetizer is great. The rolls are good and fresh no issues with the drinks as well. We had a great server, helped us order what we all liked. Solid place.

Best restaurant in Birmingham! Excellent food, service and atmosphere. The owner, Abe, is a great guy and is usually there to welcome you at the door. He and his staff take pride in providing the best experience possible and serving the best sushi in town. Try the Kodoma Tuna, Bangkok roll, sliders, Brussels in eel sauce and any dessert they have that day! They are all amazing!

We had a really nice brunch there. The food quality was really good. The sushi was tasty. Exceptional breakfast courses. The drinks were exceptional. Our server Marco was super attentive and friendly. We will definitely come back, and highly recommend this place.

“If you’re ever at Jinsei and feeling adventurous, do what we did for my 39th birthday: let your server take the reins! Our server, Kevin, was a true gem. We asked him to curate our entire meal, and he absolutely knocked it out of the park. Each dish he brought out was a testament to Jinsei’s amazing menu and quality. Kevin’s intuitive understanding of our preferences, combined with his fantastic recommendations, made for a truly seamless and delicious dining experience. Jinsei is a must-visit, and if you get Kevin, consider yourself lucky!”

3/28/2025 Saturday: This started as a 4-star review but there’s room for improvement. Located in Homewood City Hall plaza, the restaurant was easy to find.
The hostess gave me the option of where I’d like to sit. I chose a quiet corner with only one couple seated a row over. I asked for a paper menu instead of the QR code. Water arrived before the waitress. My waitress was “G.” She pkaced my drink order (which came before I could order my meal). She was patient and explained the various menu options very well. After I placed my drink (Blackberry Mojito) and menu order, I went to the restroom. It was clean but was only one room/one stall. The restroom was spacious and clean with a place to put my bag down.
My drink came with light ice as requested. I’m not a fan of spicy sushi but the spice on the Spiro roll was minimal (I’m still not a fan of chili powder on sushi). The nigiri was fresh and average sized.
“G” stopped by my table a few times but let me work on my phone. When another couple was seated next to me (I was at a double table), she was equally courteous towards them . I would suggest that when possible, not to place your back (particularly when buttocks are table height) towards a customer (she could have spoke to them from the other side of their table and not squeezed between tables). “G” checked to see if I wanted dessert and explained the options well. Payment is by machine, which impersonalizes the process. Also, there is no cash discount/no card fees. I tapped “No tip” (I always tip in cash) when I paid by card and asked for a paper receipt. “G” said “Ok” but must have seen the “No Tip” because when she brought the receipt back she barely spoke, didn’t look at me, and MIGHT have said “Thank you” as her spin was so quick it left me confused. As I was getting up from the table, “G” returned to the couple’s table and addressed them from the other side so I could get out. I had to speak to her in order to place her tip in her apron. She said “Thank you” and I exited the restaurant.

Fantastic food, attentive service. The owner Abe? helped, even on an off day. Sundays are $5 off the main rolls. Can’t wait to visit again.

First time going. Friend and I jumped in the car to play lottery and ended up in Alabama for a day trip.
The first stop was here, and it was happy hour, and I had chicken tempura and shrimp tempura roll and a mixed margarita with watermelon and pineapple delicious. They use fresh fruit! Yummy .

We weren’t certain what to expect for breakfast. The onions inside the waffle were a treat to the tastebuds. The pancakes are thick (Asian style, of course) and were good.

Absolutely incredible. Such a wonderful experience and delicious food.
