The sushi is fresh and flavorful, and if you go during lunch or happy hour it is not too expensive . Try the Angry Tuna roll if you want something a bit spicy and absolutely delicious.
Try the fuji yama roll , a soybean nori wrapper with cucumber , avocado , mango and kani (crab ) topped with crispy tempura rock shrimp and a sweet chili sauce . Fresh and tropical. Read more
A $10 roll and a beer would make for a pretty satisfactory snack or early dinner for less than $13. It’s a good spot to stop before heading home. Read more
The peppered tuna with avocado was amazing! And the customer service was the best!!!!!
Good service , great sushi . A safe bet to satisfy your craving. Save extra time to find parking , it's getting more scarce
Sit at the bar , leave John a handsome tip. Ask for a cucumber vodka with club and a lime then order a bonsai tree . You won't regret.
Haven't had a sushi here I didn't like. My favorite is the one with rock shrimp ! Lunches are very reasonable!
Des Moines cocktail & Dragon Punch were delicious. Don't miss the spicy edamame . Service was awesome too!
Excellent lunch special . Pick 2 rolls and soup for $9.50....haven't had a roll that I didn't like.
Crowded on the weekends. Just how I like it. Try the fuji Yama roll . Don't be surprised if ur butts hurtin the day after
California, Fuji Yama and Shrimp Tempura are amazing! The crab rangoons are out of this world!
We love the atmosphere and the happy hour specials . The Italian Stallion is awesome!
It's hard to find a decent sushi place in a landlocked state , but this place will do!
Order the sushi dumplings appetizer . It is not fried, it is pounded flat fish and it is absolutely delish.
They now have happy hour from 3-5:30 on weekdays! Rolls starting at 4.50 and 2.50 dollar draws! Excludes Fridays.
Fuji Yama roll , also try the Yellow Tail Jalapeño .
Out Of Control is very good, one of the best sushi spots in Des Moines.
Everything is great here, except the Bloody Mary . It was overpriced at $8, void of liquor , and tasted like Walmart tomato juice .
#1 sushi place in DSM. Everything was Amazing!!
Ask for something off the menu ... Amazing on off.
Easy top Five Asian and sushi in Metro.
A singular daylight fluorescent bulb makes the otherwise zen bathroom seem cold and drab.
They will provide gluten-free soy sauce if you ask :)
Staff is always so nice!!
Their wine pours are very generous, 3 of 3 visits.
The Des Moines love was recommended...and a disappointment
The fish I'd not as fresh as other places in town .
Fuji Yama. Awesome!
Some of the best sushi in town !
Second time here. Worse service I have ever received. Server took 30 minutes to deliver our food, after he only took care of one person at the table (ignoring the rest of us).
Best Sushi in Des Moines!!! :D
Sushi and sashimi
Hibiscus Drink is quite nice
Service was good but restaurant was freezing!
Crazy Friday Roll... Buy it
OUT OF CONTROL ROLL IS FABULOUS.
Great service. The owner is in house daily. Never had a roll I didn't like! - Vanessa Reed
Great spot! Big plus is the complimentary miso soup and soy vinaigrette salad with your order. Will stop in again. - Rachel W.
Economical sush. I recommend the Vegetarian Summer roll- soy paper, tofu, mango, cream cheese, mango sauce; also the Fire Tofu Roll- tofu, cucumber, sprouts, lettuce, mixed greens and basil sauce. - Hannah Garrison
Best place to hang out and grab a drink with friends. I love the Strawberry Shortcake martini. - Tony Tandeski
Best venue in Iowa period! Try to get as close as you can to the front, it makes the experience even better, you feel so immersed! - Austin Westermann
The Earl of sandwich and a black/tan. Good lunch or dinner combo - Brant Gilbert
