Sushi Island, Nusa Penida: Fresh Rolls by the Port

Seafood stop near the port

A few minutes from the Buyuk port on Jl. Ped – Buyuk, Sushi Island has become a small pilgrimage for sushi fans on Nusa Penida. Open daily from 11h00 à 23h00, it slots easily into a post-dive lunch, a pre-ferry dinner, or a late-night craving.

Google reviews hover around 4.8/5 on more than 1 000 comments, and several travellers say they came back three or four times in a single week (Google 2024).

Fresh fish, big plates

Reviewers keep circling back to the same theme: very fresh fish and huge portions. People mention tuna sashimi, butterfish nigiri, salmon maki, dragon rolls and mixed sashimi plates that left even “huge appetites” full.

A shared party sushi platter, lunch for two at “250 rupiah 15$”, or a spread of rolls and bowls are often described as enough for serious eaters, with some calling it the best sushi they’ve had outside Japan (Google 2024).

Menu: from ramen to sushi tacos

Beyond classic nigiri and maki, the menu stretches into curry bowls, ramen, tempura udon, okonomiyaki, beef bowls, sushi tacos and vegetarian choices. One guest from Hawaii praised the tuna quality, another singled out chicken gyoza and chicken katsu sushi, while others rave about okonomiyaki and butterfish.

Several reviews note that everything tasted fresh and that they “felt all good” after raw tuna and salmon, which matters when you’re eating on a small tropical island.

Prices, taxes and value

Value comes up again and again. Visitors from Europe and India call prices “super affordable” and “so economical” compared with elsewhere in Bali and at home.

A key detail many appreciate: there is no service charge or tax added on top of the written prices, so the total tends to match what you expect.

Anime vibes and island trade‑offs

Inside, guests describe a cute anime / manga styling with funny artwork, rescue dogs and a relaxed, open‑air setup. Staff and owners are repeatedly praised as warm, attentive and “super friendly”, and one regular even mentions the owners’ young daughter greeting returning guests.

Open‑air also brings the main downsides. After dark, lamps can attract moths that end up around the tables, and on bright days, fans may not quite beat the heat. A few diners simply found some noodle or gyoza dishes “standard” rather than outstanding.

When to go and who will love it

Given the heat and insects, many will enjoy Sushi Island most at lunch or early evening, when it’s cooler and still light.

If you care about fresh fish, generous portions and transparent pricing more than air‑conditioned comfort, this small spot near the port is likely to be one of your standout meals on Nusa Penida.
