Convenient location, popular sushi train joint, fairly affordable prices and a decently sized menu offering a generous sample of different Japanese dishes (ranges from sushi, sashimi, noodles, and platters). You are seated quickly and food was prepared promptly (hot dishes took around 10-15mins). Staff were serviceable and friendly, willing to make additional changes to dishes to our liking for a very small fee. I ate here twice and both times were equally as good. ⠀

The food is great for the price, however it understandably does not match higher end Japanese restaurants in terms of quality, ambience and taste.⠀

🍽 DISHES SAMPLED ⠀
❌CHICKEN KATSU WITH RICE | A little on the drier side in terms of chicken and didn’t have that mouthwatering taste or crunchy texture to it.⠀
⭕️SALMON WITH CHEESE MOZARELLA | Went a little overboard on the sauce which overpowered the salmon with saltiness. However the melted cheese and grilled salmon itself was delicious.⠀
⭕️KAKIAGE & TEMPURA UDON | The broth was done well and complimented both the kakiage and tempura.

Sushi and Udon were fine! The waitresses were so kind and they deliver everything quickly. And they have good price as well!
Located in the heart of Surfers Paradise area, it’ll be so easy to find this place!
This Japanese sushi train restaurant offers a big selection of sashimi, sushi, udon, donburi, tempura and vegetables. We ordered the udon, all kinds of sashimi and raw fish, edamame, chicken sushi, prawn sushi etc. everything was fresh. However service was lacking a little.
The restaurant is tucked away and a bit hard to find due to all the construction barriers. But if you do venture down the alley way, you’ll come across a good sushi restaurant.
The restaurant is pretty standard - nothing exciting. But the food tasted really fresh. I was pretty content with my choices. A good variety of dishes coming around on the train too.
Prices were not cheap, but that seems expected for sushi on the GC.
Would I go back? Yes.
Amazing feed. Everything I tried I literally loved. Tasted fresh and the service was great. Would have loved some sashimi by itself though. Everything can with rice.
Food was very fresh and timely. Very good service. Definitely one of the best sushi train restaurants in Surfers Paradise. Chicken mozzarella was my favourite. Highly recommend!
Great assortment of sushi and sashimi and all very fresh. I also tried the karaage chicken, which was nice and crispy and a good serving size. Went very well with a bottle of Sapporo beer.
Service was great, my cousin is allergic to seafood and they were extremely accomodating to her and made sure all her food was seafood free. Everything was delicious except the gyoza wasn't the best.
I just tried sashimi here for the first time. I was scared but gave it a go! It was really fresh and the flavour was far more delicate than I expected. I even went back for seconds. The staff could have been friendlier but we still had a great time. Thank you.
The sashimi was fantastic!!!!! Very very fresh!love the scollop and salmon and kingfish!!!! Well tuna was not my type tho. Great service, very welcomed, the guy who looked as a manager was very well explaining the taste of sashimi. Reasonable price as well. Highly recommend;)
I've been living in Surfers for 6 months, and whenever I've got a Japenese craving there isn't anywhere else worth considering.
Sushi here is better than a well-known chain around the Coast...the rice bowl dishes are delicious - personal favourite is the chicken katsu.
Wait staff are extremely welcoming and responsive to all requests (including the classicly embarrassing fork request).
Take a seat at the train, or take it to an outdoor table perfect for people watching the diverse tourists of the Gold Coast.
Came here a little unsure at first but once we had the food we were pleasantly surprised at how tasty and fresh everything was. The chefs were very clean constantly wiping and cleaning surfaces and the atmosphere was nice. We ordered some items fresh from the menu and the chefs didn't hesitate to make them for us even though it was circling around on the train. Our green tea was refilled every time it was finished for no extra charge.
This place is absolutely delicious and the best part is it is so fresh, the sushi chefs really take this seriously and it shows. Best sushi we have ever had. Highly recommended.
Waitresses a bit lost and had to ask a few times for drinks to be brought to table after ordering - when counting plates they seemed pretty inexperienced and took quite long.
Found it better to order from the menu for dishes we liked rather than selecting from the train. The fresher dishes will show steam under the lids - so those are good, otherwise other sushi is neither cold nor hot.
Best plates are
$3.90- $4.90
Overall satisfied but wanted more variety!
I went here once by accident when looking for another sushi place and I now go here at least once every two weeks. Good food, good service and good prices. The Takoyaki and Udon dishes are the best.
Super fresh and tasty. Good selection on the train. This is a great find on the coast.
Before this place, I have never been to sushi train. Sushi Ave was a wonderful first time experience! Great variety of sushi and the udon was delicious. It's hard to find a good sushi train in Melbourne so I often find myself wishing they had Sushi Ave here.

Very fresh sushi
Love the many choices on the moving sushi counter
easy takeaway options
Love the location
Outdoor dining available is AWESOME!
So hard to find a decent Japanese eatery in Surfers. I found this gem by accident. I have been to a few "train style" restaurants and I must say this is very authentic. All sushi are meticulously made by hand by a sushi master. Nowhere do you see a sushi making machine. The udon is delicious as well, the soup is well balanced. The service is fantastic. I would definitely revisit this hidden gem.
What makes a delicioux sushi? Fresh Fresh Fresh Sashimi! And sushi rice with the right amount of Japanese vinegar and sugar! Even how a chef presses the sushi rice into nigiri between the palms of his hands is a technique which takes years to master! Traditionally only males are allowed to be a sushi chef (why?!) because they thought women’s temperature fluctuate a lot and this subtle change of temperature would change the flavour of the sushi rice when they press the rice between the palms! How serious it is! Recently we found a new sushi train at Surfers Paradise and it was pretty good Hotate (raw scallop) and Himachi (yellowtail) are my favourites! Avocado Roll, Inari and Deep-fried Chicken Katsu Nigiri are Mr F and Little Monster’s “non-raw-food” selection. We’ll definitely come back to try the other sushi selection next time!

Restaurant was amazing with great authentic food. The staff were very efficient and helpful in terms of food ordering and payment. Loved the experience, truly a great restaurant.
This sushi train restaurant offers a good variety of sushi plates and is relatively cheap. Though they could have more choices for soup udons and ride bowl selections. Orders are fairly quick, not really that fast but good enough unless you are in a hurry.
Unlike most sushi trains I had before, this restaurant charges for green tea (AU$1) which disappointed me a little. Nonetheless it was a good experience for me. Would definitely recommend!
Best sushi I have ever had in my life I was here for 4 days and I want back 6 times
Enjoyed our experience. The okonomiyaki was really lovely, fresh and a good portion size. The service was okay and we enjoyed the sushi we had. There was a lot of sushi, but not a wide range
The best idea, is to purchase off the menu. That way you can watch them prepare your food and eat it fresh. The Gyoza was quite nice too. It’s a short walk from Cavill Ave tram station. Cross the road in the beach direction and walk underneath and through the building. .
