There's no doubt that Jacksonville's food scene wouldn't be the same without its sushi. Younger Jaxsons might be surprised to know that just a few decades ago, you might have struggled to find good sushi here in Jacksonville, FL, as today you'd think it was impossible to drive more than a mile or two without seeing a number of sushi places. While there are a lot to choose from, we think these are the top three restaurants to eat sushi. 3 Best Sushi Places Worth the Drive in Jacksonville, FL 1. Sushi Bear Sushi & Grill Head over to the Lakeshore neighborhood to try sushi at one of Jacksonville's most established and best-acclaimed Japanese restaurants, at 4530 St John's Avenue. With a casual feel, affordable prices, and a huge menu of both raw and cooked sushi rolls, you really can't go wrong heading here for lunch or dinner. A few rolls we can recommend are their signature raw House Roll with egg, crab, cucumber, avocado, tamago omelet, and cheese, as well as their cooked Dynamite Roll and Jaguar Rolls, both featuring fresh eel. Prices start at $5.50 for the roll sets. more 2. Yummy Sushi If you want a more upscale Japanese dining experience, head across the river to Yummy Sushi at 4372 Southside Boulevard. Their sushi menu is also extensive with raw and cooked options, as well as larger mix-and-match entree sushi sets for those looking for a bigger meal. In addition to fresh ingredients, Yummy Sushi takes much pride in its homemade sauces to spice up each sushi set. You can't go wrong with any of their specialty rolls; all hand-rolled with fresh ingredients, cooked and prepared to perfection. A few of our favorites are the Infinity Roll (crabstick, tempura with avocado, cream cheese, and a spicy sauce), and the Godzilla Roll (crabstick, fried tuna, avocado, and a sweet and sour sauce. 3. Yashi Sushi Right nearby at 4820 West Deer Lake Drive is another of our favorite sushi restaurants in Jacksonville.

Our favorites include the Hurricane Roll (fish eggs, mite fish, crab, eel, served in a roll with avocado, cheese, and a spicy mayo sauce) and the Pineapple Express (eel, crab, fish eggs, and tempura shrimp served in a roll with fresh pineapple, scallions, and homemade eel sauce). There's a good reason sushi is becoming more and more popular in the Jacksonville dining scene.

Lunch on the Go: 3 Great Sandwich Places Near Jacksonville, FL 1. The French Pantry French cooking has helped to inspire everything from Cajun food to some American classics like the roast beef sandwich.
