    This is our favorite spot to dine in if we are craving sushi and rolls it’s always always always fresh, the fish is shining when they bring it in. And when I say always, I mean we dine in here once or twice a week. The staff is so friendly. We have never been disappointed and honestly haven’t liked sushi or rolls anywhere else as much as we do it at Sushi Monster. We have tried almost the entire menu and everything is so good. It’s very affordable and the atmosphere is very friendly and warm. We usually get the hot green tea which they refill as much as you want. The green tea ice cream is great too.

    Sushi Monster is so good. The sushi always tastes fresh. The service is always exceptional. It's a small restaurant, with a few tables and chairs outside. We also love their chicken udon noodles. We come back as often as we can.

    Great customer service/amazing staff! Dog friendly outdoor seating. Food is solid. We ordered the dinner combo and got the salmon and beef teriyaki options. These are small portions than the single dinner beef teriyaki and salmon teriyaki dinner entree options; and do not come out on the hot sizzling platter. The sushi is about $6-7 per nigiri order (two pieces). The sushi quality is solid; but not write home amazing. Staff/service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Food: 4

    Food and service was great. Limited metered parking close by. Free parking lot a few doors down. Lunch special $24. Exceptional because the fish was fresh and tasty, nice combination with rice and salad. Can't come near as often as I would like to because it doesn't fit my budget. Closed for a few hours in the afternoon. Busy at night.

    Sushi Monster – Montrose We had a great experience at Sushi Monster in Montrose. From start to finish, everything felt relaxed, welcoming, and well taken care of. The rolls were the standout — beautifully presented, generous portions, and packed with flavor. Each roll tasted fresh and well-balanced, without being overpowered by sauces. The nigiri and sashimi were equally impressive, clearly made with quality fish and attention to detail. What really elevated the meal, though, was the attentive and friendly service. Our server was knowledgeable, checked in at the right moments, and made thoughtful recommendations without ever feeling rushed or pushy. It made the entire experience feel genuinely enjoyable. If you’re looking for a reliable local sushi spot with excellent rolls and great service, Sushi Monster is absolutely worth a visit. We’ll definitely be back.
