This polished Asian restaurant & sushi bar melds the flavors of Japan, Thailand & other countries.
What a disappointing experience. I’ve been coming to Rise for the past four years and while I understand, it’s a busy night there should be a host present at all time in the front. I was waiting to be seated like other parties. A couple walks in behind me and being impatient since no host was present, cut in front of me and sat themselves at a booth. When the host finally came up, she asked if I had a reservation and that there’s a wait as it’s fully booked. I explained that the couple sat themselves and therefore should wait like everyone else. She was very dismissive and said she wasn’t here and didn’t see anything, as if that makes it okay. She proceeded to not do anything about it so I decided not to give my business and probably will not do in the future. Customer service is just as important as the food.
The food is good and the outdoor area nice but part of the experience is ruined by the extremely rude hostess. No manners at all. Shabby appearance, no greeting. Horrible experience. I don’t understand how a restaurant can hire this type of person as a hostess. We have had the same experience multiple times.
I have been to Rise many times, bringing groups of friends with me each time. Tonight the experience was horrible. I ordered a glass of the better wine and received a pour that was minuscule. Three of the people in my party couldn’t finish their food because it was not good, and the waitress was brusque and inattentive. She forgot an order and threw the food at us when she served it. She didn’t even give us time to look at the menu before trying to take the order. Needless to say, I won’t be coming back.
A fall from grace. This used to be my favorite sushi place,but not anymore. The salmon tasted old and the tuna was tasteless. The ginger dressing was watery and the soy sauce was stale. I was sorely disappointed. Years ago when I first ate there, it was excellent and it’s declined each time I go back. This time will be my last.
We always have a good time at Rise, but this time was especially delightful. We had an early dinner, ordered different items on the menu, and had cocktails. Our server was a young man who was attentive and helpful. We had not been to Rise in ages, so I think that made it even more special. 💝
Father’s Day dinner, please save your money and go another restaurant. Food was horrible, service mediocre and just not a pleasing experience.
Order spicy Tuna and also Spicy salmon and both taste the same. I asked the waiters which section was tuna and which was the salmon just in case I was missing something,, Still same taste
Tudo delicioso!
Let me start off by saying that the service was garbage from the jump. I arrived and asked for a table for two outside, they gave me one that didn't face the water and told me I needed a reservation for those and that they were already taken. I can tell you for the rest of the night, the two tables in front of us were empty.
THERE WERE MICE, YES THAT'S RIGHT, MICE. Several of them at the table next to ours. We were done with our meal and I didn't expect the server to do anything about it but she'd been rushing us (despite the empty tables) but we told her and she LAUGHED IN OUR FACES. She asked if I took a photo or video.
Then I saw one run from one table to another table. But what's most disgusting out of everything is the fact that when we got to the restaurant, there was an odor by the ramp to get in. Having been there before, I genuinely thought that one of the koi fish had died, and that would be no fault of the restaurant's, but as my friend and I left, and felt the pang of that stench, I immediately realized what it was.... IT WAS A DEAD RAT!!!!

Ordered here on Uber eats tonight delivery. There was no chopsticks, no napkins, no soy sauce in the bag. Unbelievable. Have never had that happen with sushi delivery before. Food was average..sushi quality decent not amazing.
The place was nice no complaints there. Our waitress was really nice and attentive, gave suggestions when asked. My plum wine was really nice and my friend's lychee martini was nice and strong no complaints there. The sushi was good...i also had the Hong Kong noodles... well on any day you can give me asian food . any one of them Japanese, Chinese, Indian, Vietnamese, you name it...I just love Asian food...I love the different flavors to just slap me.... the noodles were kinda bland for Asian food which is why I gave 4 stars.
Great food
We were so disappointed in the tuna rolls! They were mushy and not like regular tuna rolls we eat at other sushi places. Who knows what we were actually eating?
The servers weren’t very friendly either. We won’t be going back. Not worth the money. 😩
The. Worst. Service!! Food was decent but the server was so nasty that the meal wasn’t even enjoyable. The worst of it was complaining multiple times that we didn’t ask for an additional bowl to split a soup when we placed the ordered. Service has not been great in the past but today was the worst it’s been. In general, if you sit outside, you are pretty much neglected.
I have been coming here since 2020 and always enjoying my Deluxe Shrimp tempura rolls with brown rice . My kids love rainbow rolls. Always fresh, delicious and fast. Nice service, lovely and welcoming hostess.
The food is delicious there and recently priced for the quantity you get. The staff is extra friendly in the environment outside is very comfortable. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for high-quality sushi.
Service is subpar but food is excellent, if you don't mind a little dirty tables and old venues, the food is great.
The food was not bad was actually pretty good but this service was terrible we had like 5 different servers serve us throughout our stay and half of them didn't listen/ had to keep repeating ourselves to them I actually asked one server for spicy Mayo and locked eyes with him thru the window and saw him put his hands in his pockets until he realized he forgot about me. Hostest was dismissive and didn't even greet us/say goodbye...just awkward eye contact. Overall head scratcher of a night...at least our food was good 🤷♂️
Discriminatory staff. Don't treat people with dignity and respect.
Rude people. Filthy restaurant. Had to walk out for the second time. Won’t ever go back.
We ate inside the restaurant (instead of outside) for the first time the other day. Noise level was a little high but acceptable. Service was excellent, as was food except for the Mongolian Beef, which was overwhelmed by onions. Excellent nigiri and rolls.
Best sushi place in Boca
Best sushi in Boca! Going for years (after finding another old standby that used to be THE best in Boca for 20 years was going downhill). No one we brought has ever been disappointed at Rise…
Good Pad Thai too!
(Gets real busy in season - lines all the time!)
The best Asian cuisine. Great service, great food for the reasonable price!
Food poisoning I strongly suggest do not go to this restaurant go to lemongrass if you pass it step on the accelerator my significant other and myself have never been so sick when we called them up to tell them that we got food poisoning from the restaurant the woman Could care less. We were concerned when we got there to begin with to be quite honest because the restaurant was empty. It was Sunday at 8 o'clock. That being said we were sick for two days after this restaurant as I said, do not go there go to Lemongrass step on the accelerator and pass by rise. We spent more money on Charmin than the total bill. We would've been better off eating the Koi out of the pond. The worst sushi experience ever !!!
Best sushi in South Florida. My favorite signature rolls are Ninja roll and Spicy Rainbow roll.
I love it here so much. Everything about it. I'm always happy to impress my friends for dinner plans here. The food is delicious, I love the ambience, and no matter how busy, the staff is super attentive and really sweet.
Great food but the service isn’t great. Still worth it for the sushi rolls.
This is a great joint in Boca Pointe. Seating is available inside or outside by the water. The atmosphere is relaxed. Sit wherever you want. There is a separate room available for small to medium-sized parties. Service is fast, but they do not rush to serve everything at once. My food choices are TomKha soup with coconut milk and shrimp, fried dumplings, and spicy salmon roll. The soup is to die for. You can request it mild to really spicy.
Our sushi unch here was excellent. We had the Crouching Tiger Roll, a Hamachi Scallion roll and 3 orders of sashimi--Tuna, Salmon Belly and Hamachi belly. The rolls were excellent and the fish was fresh. The Crouching Tiger roll was exceptiona. The tuna sashimi was not good but the Hamachi Belly and Salmon Belly were fresh, tasty and delicious. Price was very reasonable. This is definitely one of the better places in the area to get sushi.
Love eating outside
Nice outdoor seating, service is alright, food is average. A good option
PLZ ONLY BUY SHUSHI FRM THEM! DO NOT BUY ANY THING FRY🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Really fresh and the portions are enormous
Waterfront seating was nice, seaweed salad and edamame were good, sushi and noodles were very average and wouldn’t order again, but the real reason for the low review is the server.
This woman was unfriendly, messed up my order, and when I brought it up she just laughed it off and said, “I didn’t hear you.” Didn’t even offer to try and fix it. Then she brought the check before we were even done eating without asking if we wanted desert or anything else.
Was it so busy they were trying to make room for the line out the door, you ask?
Nay, friend. We were one of three parties there…
The best part was when I tried to feed a piece of my incorrectly ordered, mediocre chicken to the snapping turtle swimming below, and it spat it out. A fitting symbolism for our experience.
We always have a good time at Rise, but this time was especially delightful. We had an early dinner, ordered different items on the menu, and had cocktails. Our server was a young man who was attentive and helpful. We had not been to Rise in ages, so I think that made it even more special. 💝
Great place to meet friends. The tables rock!
Great restaurant, excellent outdoor dining available. The Mongolian beef dish was superb. I’ve had it three times, most recently ordered it as takeout. The ride from Lake Worth was well worth it.
Service is horrible
This place really has gone downhill!! This used to be my favorite sushi restaurant in Boca Raton and I’m not sure what happened but it seems like management just does not care about the status of this place anymore. My partner and I went on a Sunday afternoon. The restaurant was basically empty. Upon entry we were greeted by rude staff members who brushed us off! Our experience with the food was horrible as well, probably the worst sushi I’ve ever had. The calamari tasted rotten and the miso soup tasted like dirty sink water. In addition to all of this, after I told our rude server about one of our rolls being inedible, he decided it would be a good idea to use the roll we didn’t like to FEED THE FISH IN THE LAKE right next to us and was laughing the whole time saying “cannibals haha.” I was legitimately horrified. I didn’t realize this establishment turned into a live feeding aquarium on Sundays. Absolutely disgusted and scarred!
Best chow mei fun I have ever had!! Very good red curry. Non stop people of all ages coming to eat on a Saturday night!
Sat outside at a gliding table overlooking the pond. Food was magnificent
Service was horrible! Sat a while before we were even acknowledged. Then ordered and didn’t receive drinks for 45 minutes! Servers were non existent on the outside patio.
A magical space for a sushi experience.
We have been customers for over 20 yrs(prior location down 18 th St). The restaurant is very nice and outside seating by the canal is good. The place is pretty big but there is always some confusion at the front for seating. They sat us at a booth my grandchildren would fit in and we are not large people. There are booths connected in the middle with a wooden divider but you you are literally a foot away from the booth next to you. The service is always bad with a few exceptions. We never saw our waitress after we ordered. The food is good but I ordered the same thing I always do and the waitress said we don’t have fried tofu just steamed which I knew was wrong and she insisted they never had fried tofu. So steamed is healthier but in all the years I always got fried tofu and the steamed was not the same at all. I noticed prices are higher like most places but Rise is kind of dishonest. I asked my waitress for soup or salad comes with the meal. Not anymore that is an extra charge now. Ok next they bring my plate which is wide and square and looked large. When I put my fork into the dish the depth was about 1/2 inch so while it looked big it was much less than I normally get. So in summary if you like bad service really no service and like overpaying for small portions than you will love Rise. I go back because my wife loves the ambiance and the food is good but way less veggies than I used to get. I am done now as there are much better options for service and food down the street.
Extremely good service and Sushi. A pleasant experience worth the visit. I’ll shall be back when I’m back in town. Tuna seaweed salad was off the charts. The Eel roll was excellent
This sushi restaurant is amazing! It is worth the drive to Boca. Definitely get a reservation. It is the best sushi in South Florida.
Service was absolutely horrendous. We went on a Sunday night, wasn’t too busy. There was no one at the reception desk so we waited, and then waited some more until we finally decided to go up to the bartender to see if he could get someone, as the sign says “please wait to be seated”. Our waiter seemed very bored and not interested in being there. He didn’t even introduce himself. Food was good, but no one checked on us for the rest of the time we were there to see if we needed anything else. We ordered the check and a box, and when the waiter came back with it, he didn’t say a word! It’s a shame because it is such a beautiful place by the lake and the food is good, but who wants to return with that kind of service! Staff definitely needs to be trained more to provide better customer service!
Second visit, under delivered. The food was ok (cucumber roll was slimy, rice was cold, but gyoza was great). Service slow and just not as enjoyable as the 1st visit. Could use some tightening up.
the hostess was rude and despotic ( I think she is Colombian, Colombian people is very nice, but she is not), the waitress did not speak English, and she understood everything wrong!! lousy lousy service
Awful .. terrible experience, bartender didn’t even know how to serve any kind of drinks, service ID say the worst I’ve had in my life, food was ok but just to comply with minimum, nice place though but either they improve service and bar otherwise I’d never recommend anyone to go there
Delicious Food and huge portions ! Highly Recommended !! Outdoor Seating available
GOOD FRESH sushi 🍣
MEANS PERFECT !
Food was phenomenal and service was excellent
Restaurant needs a face lift. I am not sure how clean the restaurant is. I hope the restaurant passes the next health inspection.
They are the best specialty rolls that I’ve had in Florida - Miami, Naples, Palm Beach. Never thought that I’d be saying that about a sushi place in Boca. But they are that good. I can only speak to take out though - not dining in.
We had a 6:45 reservation for my husbands birthday dinner. We were seated in a side room with one other table and 5 empty tables. After being seated and sitting there for 20 mins we had to ask for server and water. We finally ordered soup and steamed chicken dumplings (picture enclosed). The waiter brought the dumplings 35 mins later, they were ice cold and served so unappealing. We asked for a manager and she came over and was not accommodating and said she would be back. In the meantime our soups came and it was tepid at best. Completely inedible! At that point we got up and left and went to a local competitor, without a reservation and had a wonderful full dining experience. We will never go to RISE again.
I love Rise sushi! Our waiter was amazing and let us take our time without us feeling rushed. The food is delicious and high quality. We sat inside because of the heat, but next time would love to go outside!
The staff was very attentive, detail oriented and fast, especially a gentleman named Wei. His custom made cocktails were refreshing. The freshly prepared sushi was delicious. The scenery was gorgeous. Needless to say, I will certainly be back for more... very soon.
Father’s Day dinner, please save your money and go another restaurant. Food was horrible, service mediocre and just not a pleasing experience.
Order spicy Tuna and also Spicy salmon and both taste the same. I asked the waiters which section was tuna and which was the salmon just in case I was missing something,, Still same taste
My wife loves this place.
It’s busy and obviously good and fresh and I find the service is excellent.
Owner is great and wants to make sure that you enjoy.
Love this place a lot.
The location was great! Facing the water. The food was okay! And service was very good but I've had better.
Good Thai food with very confy outdoor space...
Delicious food and fun experience. Service was good, too.
Unwelcoming hosts, waiter was pretty rough in his manners, food runners were courteous tough. Order took forever to arrive and didn’t come together for everyone on the table. My roll was poorly executed: pieces way too big (see picture) that made it impossible to eat in one bite, really messy and annoying. It was not the fist time dining here but definitely the last.
Great sushi and sashimi. Will be back.
Lovely seating outdoors along a pond. Delicious Asian Fusion.
Food was okay but we were asked to leave even before our check came because they needed the table. We were there for appx 70 minutes. Disgusting. We will never go back.
Beautiful outdoor eating area, nice staff, but really bad food. Fish was like freezer burned, blender, cat food. Such a shame. It was also very expensive. Go for the ambiance, it’s lovely. Just don’t eat the food.
Nice outdoor dining experience. The food is not great. So sad, I had high hopes. You are better off buying sushi from a grocery store. :(
Good service
Ordered takeout, first time customer. The food is alright, but we ordered two different wok meals and they both tasted the same. I put both leftovers in the same dish, because they were almost identical. Maybe, their forte is in sushi, but I will look around for another restaurant, since my wife is not a fan of sushi.
Very disorganized. chaotic energy and they don’t honor ur reservation. Inside stuffy with no airflow. Air conditioning probably hasn’t been serviced in years food ok if u want ever at once
The photo's of your food looks amazing. From a marketing point of view would it be possible to put the name of the dishes in the lower corner of the photo?
Blue river roll was excellent
Nothing great. We did take out, mainly rolls. Some rolls were cold while others room temperature. This tell me the rolls are pre-made and kept cold. The rolls had similar taste even though each were very different.The wasabi looked stale as if it was left out for awhile. Overall, disappointing.
The food is always fantastic!
No good!
No service!
The food was decent, as there is always something on the menu for vegetarians and vegans. The service was horrible, the server yelled at us and was not accommodating at all. I did not leave him a tip. Instead, I tipped the busboy and the lady who first welcomed us and brought us water. I discussed the matter with Vivian, the owner, who was very understanding. She promised she would talk to him about his treatment of us. Not sure if we'll be back any time soon.
One of the finest Sushi restaurants in Boca Raton.
Food was very good, service was excellent with an inviting atmosphere. We will go back.
The curry!!!!!
Rise is the best restaurant in florida. The owners are incredible people. I highly recommend
I’ve worked in a sushi restaurant for 5 years. The experience of eating here SUCKED. We were seating so far away from everyone else that it took a half hour for someone to come greet us. The OWNER when I tried to return the simple dish I ordered of a spicy tuna roll and spicy salmon roll told me I didn’t know how to eat it, and that’s why I didn’t like it. The roll was loose sloppy and the fish did not taste fresh. She argued with me about it, instead of just asking if I wanted anything else. Terrible experience don’t waste your money here, there are better places in Boca.
Great place grat food and loads of it as well 😀 well worth a visit
Waited 1 1/2 hours to receive main course. Terrible service.
Just had dinner there. Service was horrendous. Way too overpriced, asked for the manager who refused to come to our table.
Food was fresh. Didnt care for the choices of sushi rolls. Most were tempora or cooked shrimp and lobster. Rolls had cream cheese and aspargus. They are very accomodating. Will change anything. I guess I am an aiko lover in melville, ny.
Sushi&other Asian dishes a notch above the usual...Would have given rise 5 stars but soft shell crabs were a bit fishy ,but our server removed the plate with nary a whisper & replaced it with a wonderful lobster roll.Tables too close.
So many issues just trying to find and enter the front door only to be stopped by a hostess with an attitude. Our reservation was not honored and we were told we should have made a reservation 2 says in advance. We asked for outdoor seating but we're denied and then saw people walk in behind us and sit at tables outside. It was a very dismal attempt on our first and last attempt at dinner. Recommended by a friend, will never go back under any circumstances and friendship oli's over because of the bad taste left in our mouths about the hostile treatment. F plus
Best sushi place in town!!!!!
Best sushi in boca honestly. I prefer here to any of the other spots like sushi Yama bluefin etc. it’s a better price point and just fresher fish. And the staff is really nice!
My favorite sushi restaurant.
Our experience was nice , server was very friendly. Salmon salad roll and Mexican roll were very good as well as the chicken coconut soup .
Best sushi, hands down! Been going here for over 10 years and no better place for sushi can be found.
Having been a VERY LOYAL customer for years (and sent many many people there) I am appalled by the reduction in serving sizes and increase in pricing.
In an effort to supplement the reduced size of the roll I ordered extra sushi pieces and was SHOCKED when the bill came and TWO pieces of sushi (tuna) cost $14!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, $7 a piece!????!
It's such a shame in the miserable economy that such an established restaurant feels the need to penalize their loyal customers with pricing like this.
Very, very sad and disappointing.
Food , is bland, not much flavor.. First time here last time here...

Excellent food. Nice atmosphere.
Was one of my favorites spots for some years until the last couple of years, this place do not care about customers, every time we tried to eat there, it was almost like a charity from the owner to let us go in and sit down to eat, most of the time empty tables but their excuse was they were reserved for other people, until the last time we ordered vegetarian soup and other vegetarian dish, however the veggie gyoza wasn't vegetarian, they were pieces of chicken, and I think the manufacturer made a mistake but the owner was upset at me when all we wanted was the vegetarian gyoza we always ordered, apparently she ordered from a different place, we didn't know we were eating frozen food anyway. However we won't come back!! There's many places in Boca to enjoy delicious food.
Sad to say this was a second attempt before letting this one go..
The energy of this restaurant is zero. There is no pulse, the staff is not friendly and the service was poor.
The food was completely mediocre. We gave this one another chance as the location is nice. We had gyoza, completely bland. A spicy rainbow roll, which was actually bizarre. It's pretty hard to screw up a rainbow roll...i wish, in hindsight, I took a picture it was tasteless. The seaweed salad was great.
We will not be back and it looks like others may be feeling the same. It was pretty empty.
So disappointing and just awful.
Food was delicious, very fresh, presented beautifully. Service was exceptional. Sat outside, atmosphere was lovely!
Tasty tasty sushi.
A generous 4 star for this sushi place as the seating outside is nice and the service was ok.
We asked straws for the cups of water and they initially told us 'no straws'. Then they served us a mojito with a straw...
You get 10 pieces per roll but quality is not on the highest end and flavour wise, it's just blah...
There are better sushi options in Boca.
Food was delicious. A great variety of foods. Super service. A lovely place to eat.
Extremely poor experience as a whole.
Service: We had a 6:30pm reservation for 9. The check-in crew is discourteous. Worse than a low-end Chinese buffet restaurant where the staff just wants to dump you at your table and run.
Our waitress took unprofessionalism to a whole new level. She was rushing us as soon as we received the menus and rudely continued to do do so. For example, she would ask if we needed something without stopping walking. Felt like a drive-by waitress.
The cooked food looks very presentable and the portiins are large, but it is bland and unflavorful.
Same with the sushi. The seafood chirashi had a bunch of sashimi dumped on a thick bed of rice.
I judge sushi restaurants on the quality of rice served with the sushi. Not very palatable.
Definitely never going back. Fyi, this was my 2nd dining experience at Rise sushi.
Delicious.
Very nice atmosphere. Stuff are nice and attentive. Food is great. Many to choose in their menu.
Best sushi in town. Always fresh and delicious.
Love this place. Great selections for everyone. Great service with personality. And the food is wonderful.
Delicious and unique rolls! We got a chicken tempura roll that was simple but so good and another one that had peanuts in it. Delicious! We only could get an indoor table but would love to come back and sit outside!
Very busy place but the food makes it worth it.
Fantastic experience! Walked in early and they were able to fit us in despite being mostly reservation only. Sushi rolls were large and had generous portions of fish. Service was fast and on point.
Nothing better!
They’re sushi is really good
Great food and menu
Two words: DE LISH!!!!
Nice food. Great outdoor dining space. Huge portions. Had my favorite Curry dish. Iced Green Tea was very authentic. Rich flavor.
Typically I go to Blue Fin. First time at Rise was today.
I found the sushi as average as it comes. Ordered a special roll. Nice presentation. It was warm and mushy. Had 3 pieces and stopped. Also found the service unfriendly and uncaring.
Excellent food and great ambience. The outdoor seating is very nice, and the food is very tasty, whether it is sushi or a rice dish.
Great food and the service is amazing
Wanted to dine in at the patio area but they were full. Ambiance looks nice. I ordered Jb roll, California roll and spicy salmon roll to go. The presentation was poor, but I am no sushi expert so I am not sure if this is an expectation. All 3 rolls came in one box.The price didn't match what I got at $31.00. The fish and avocado was too much for the sushi (chunk sizes). I will try them again just to balance my views.. the taste was ok, had better
This place is awesome food service ambiance amazing experience
I would like to know what people are eating here that they think deserves 5 or 4 stars....or even 2 or 3. Perhaps they are just too busy enjoying their beers and wine to notice the qualify of the food.
My wife and I have lived in Boca for thirty years and we ate at Rise this evening for the first time. It was the worst sushi we have ever had. We have eaten at sushi restaurants all over Florida, including South Beach, Bal Harbor, Palm Beach, Orlando, Tampa, etc.
We started our order with the "Sushi Dinner" - 10 pieces of sushi, which came with a 'Spicy Tuna Roll" - and an Eel Roll. Simple stuff that should be easy to get right...you would think.
First of all, the rice with the sushi was way too dense and heavy - and there was way too much for the piece of fish. The rice with the Eel Roll was ice cold and hard. Sushi rice is supposed to be the star of sushi, and it should always be room temperature. If the rice isn't right it the sushi is ruined. The Spicy Tuna Roll we literally couldn't eat. The "Tuna" inside the roll was a mushy tartare.
When the waiter, who was very nice, asked "how is everything?", my wife replied with "not great, but we're trying to eat it." We told him "the rice is cold". And he said, "The rice is supposed to be cold, so it doesn't spoil the fish. It can't be hot." We were referring specifically to the Eel roll, which is never served cold.
We rarely eat out in Boca. However, we always see a full parking lot at Rise, so we thought that we would give it a try tonight, and we were very disappointed.
BEST SUSHI!! love the outside seating
