Sushi lovers welcome!
Fresh, traditional sushi and sashimi, regardless of what you’re in the mood for: salmon, tuna, yellowtail, mackerel, ikura, uni, and more.
We serve all the classic maki rolls, wrapped with just the right amount of sushi rice. The ambitious (and hungry) should try more inventive rolls like the Pink Panther (spicy tuna, avocado, and peanuts wrapped in soy paper) or the Tic Tac Toe (salmon, white tuna, and tuna wrapped in rice paper). Check out our Chef Special rolls for more!
We also serve hibachi dishes, hot udon noodle soup, and perfectly cooked katsu and donburis. If you’re in the mood for other Asian dishes, our Pad Thai, Crispy Sesame Chicken, and Szechuan Blackened Steak are fan favorites.
Vibrant murals & neon lighting brighten this Japanese eatery prepping sushi & cooked specialties.

This sushi place is a must visit for an amazing sushi in the area. The quality is truly impressive and it was definitely one of the best sushi experiences I’ve had in a while. The service was attentive but the staff could improve on their friendliness and welcoming demeanor to make customers feel more at ease.

We were at Shogun today and had a great experience! The service was excellent — our waitress was very professional and kind. She even brought a strawberry as a little gift for our daughter, which was such a sweet gesture. The food was fresh and very tasty. They also have a full bar, and it’s kids-friendly, making it a great spot for families. Definitely recommend!

Ran into this beautiful gem and didn’t regret it. Truly enjoyed the ambiance and food here. Food was delicious, good portion, and good cost. Staff were courteous, helpful, and friendly. Place is well decorated to give the kind of ambiance relative to the culture. Quiet, warm, and relaxing space. I’ll definitely be visiting again when in the area. Highly recommended.

I order online using Doordash. The food tasted great, delicious pork katsu. There was a mixed with the sushi I ordered and the sushi that arrived but they very quickly acknowledged the mix up and sent the sushi I order. I really appreciate the quick turnaround/great service. Again the food itself was delicious, definitely recommend!

Typical small town Asian restaurant that sell everything from sushi to Thai food. My friends and I came here for dinner on Sunday and everything we ordered were better than we expected. We especially liked the spicy rock shrimp, and the rolls were also solid for the price.

I recently dined at SHOGUN, an authentic Japanese restaurant and sushi bar in Albany, and it was an exceptional experience. This restaurant truly stands out for several reasons.
First and foremost, SHOGUN boasts an extensive food selection that caters to a variety of tastes. From traditional Japanese dishes to an impressive sushi menu, there’s something for everyone. Additionally, their premium drink and cocktail collections complement the meal perfectly, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the dining experience.
What struck me most was the impeccable service. The staff at SHOGUN are not only fast but also incredibly cordial. They took our orders accurately, ensuring that every dish was prepared to our satisfaction. This level of attentiveness is a rarity and greatly enhanced our dining experience.
Furthermore, it’s worth noting that SHOGUN has achieved the highest level of honor from the Department of Health—EXCELLENT COMPLIANCE. This recognition speaks volumes about the restaurant’s commitment to maintaining top-notch hygiene and safety standards. It’s a testament to their dedication to providing a clean and healthy dining environment.
In summary, SHOGUN in Albany is a true gem. With its diverse menu, premium drinks, exceptional service, and outstanding health compliance record, it’s a dining establishment that deserves the highest praise. I highly recommend a visit to experience the excellence firsthand.

Shogun has been a favorite of mine for YEARS, and they haven’t missed a beat!! The staff are friendly; Ray and Lee are our favs – but EVERYONE is great! The Japanese beef noodles are a must try! The veggies are sautéed to perfection and the beef is tender, well seasoned and delicious. Their sushi rolls are a must! My favs are the basics spicy crunchy tuna and yellow-tail. The funky monkey is an interesting and delicious dish! I don’t know who thought to stuff jalapeños with cream cheese, spicy tuna, topped with eel sauce and tabiko, but THANK YOU! The ginger dressing on the salad needs to be bottled and sold, ASAP! The spicy rock shrimp are a must try, (they will even lightly dress them with the spicy aioli if you request it… like I did)! The Harmaki are crispy, light, flavorful and delicious… order 2!

Oh my gosh, if you are looking for good Japanese cuisine… this is it! Amazing selection! Very good serving staff. We had a group of 6, and they were able to seasily accommodate us. Our server was very patient with us as we were catching up with friends, so it took us longer to order. They allowed us to take our time. The food came out in a good time. On top of all of this, they had free parking in the back. We were not disappointed at all!
