Sapporo East is the best sushi restaurant in Virginia Beach, if not the world. All our friends that have lived overseas have said it is better than any of the sushi they get in Japan. Not only is the food fresh and delicious, but the service is superb. Their prices are more than reasonable. The chefs are creative & are willing to make a roll that you conceive from your own imagination--as long as they have the ingredients. If you are an experienced sushi eater, there are a few things off menu that you must try: Avery Roll & the Uni Shooter. But, you can never go wrong with their Tuna Pizza (will make any raw fish virgin a convert) & Shrimp Tempura (you havent had shrimp tempura until you had Sapporo Easts). I love uni sushi, lobster sashimi, sweet shrimp sushi, the Green Roll, Chesapeake Roll, & Dragon Roll. They have a great cooked portion of their menu tooTheir Steak and Chicken Teriyaki are to die for. But, it really doesnt matter what you order because everything that they make for you is a delicious work of art.

My family loves this restaurant. The owners are very nice and put a lot of attention to the dishes. They offer other options if you don't love sushi. Their lunch specials are also great. The restaurant is small, but quaint, and taking your children is totally fine. Being Korean and having experienced different Asian/sushi restaurants, I highly recommend visiting Sapporo East. Prices are very reasonable and their menu offers sushi combinations, so everyone can find something to try and not break your wallet.
