Sushi burritos? Heck yeah! The Salmon Samba Burrito is really good.
I decided to check this joint out recently while shopping in the area and needed some sort of healthy lunch. Yet, I wanted something different and unusual from the norm. I never had a sushi burrito before so this seemed like a cool choice. There are a multitude of places to eat at in NYC, from around the world, so it’s no surprise to see an unusual foodie experience such as Sushirrito pop up on the scene.
Ordering was pretty easy as the menu is not all that large but the choices are good, yet there is little leeway to customize your food option. My one other gripe is that they need to expand their cold drink choices. At least get some regular and diet sodas here in case people don’t want to choose water or some sort of prepackaged lemonade or iced tea.
Other than those minor things I really enjoyed the burrito here. My salmon burrito was large and hearty. Had great taste and was freshly made on the spot. Can get a bit messy as you eat this with your hands but that’s where the fun is! No chopsticks needed. Good balance of salmon and ingredients. Quite satisfied with this lunch option.
The wait can be a bit long as during lunch hours people who work in the area are now flocking to this place. I arrived later in the afternoon and it was emptier. Plenty of spots to sit at, bright and clean with a friendly staff.
My first time devouring a sushi burrito, and it won’t be my last!

Sushi Burrito? What a great idea. Wonder if anyone around here makes something like that. I may be a woman on a mission.
Hey Karen!
First time I ever had this, as it’s not a big thing here in NYC. Probably more of a west coast thing. Worth checking out as it was pretty good.
My husband would like that. I’m a freak and do not care for sushi. I’m way too picky. LOL
Hey Holli!
OMG! I love sushi. It’s so healthy too and so many options. Get on board!
Hi Phil, I’d be interested to know what the outer coating in that holds the sushi within, a tortilla or a seaweed wrap. Looks good.
Hey Peggy!
It was a seaweed wrap. I had to give it a shot and was surprised at how much I liked it. Very different!
I like sushi so I think the burrito concept is genius! It’d be like getting 5 sushi rolls (or more) at once 🙂 Great review!
Hey Christy!
Thanks! Yeah, as a burrito lover this just made me so happy!
