As always my first choice to eat is definitely their sushi rather than any of their bento or ramen sets. Funnily enough my order all came in a single plate which is weird but also good in a way because this takes up less of the table space. 

A thing I like to do is order off the menu because it is my personal belief that this means the sushi is made to order rather than those on the conveyor belt which I assume has been there for a while already.

One thing that I always order is the Ebikko sushi and priced at Rm4.80 each, I straight up ordered two in a go. Honestly I could sit down and eat several of this in one sitting but I would not try anything else which is a little of a waste of stomach space. 
Ika Mentai

Another order that I like is the Ika Mentai. There is nothing wrong with this combination as the raw squid is nice and crunchy, plus nicely lathered with a layer of bruleed mentai. The only thing is, I wish there was more of the sauce on top of the Ika because this time they gave really scarce amount.

Here's something that's fast becoming a favourite of mine too - the Ikura sushi. Basically ikura is Salmon roe which is bigger in size compared to the Ebikko so each little egg has more 'juice' inside and has a more fishy flavour.

While I really liked this, here's something that I find wrong with this. The seawed was damp and soggy that had me wondering how long has this been sitting around before it was served to me. The Ikura was scarce and also in the picture on the menu, it's supposed to come with cucumber slices to give a hint of freshness so the flavour of the roe isn't too overpowering which you can see did not come with mine.

Sushi Zanmai had always been a favourite place for me to go to for a good Japanese food fix, especially since their prices are not too exurbent. However I do feel like some of the standards have dropped significantly which is kind of disappointing. At least to me.

Though the Saba Shioyaki was good and I am glad to see that they serve two pieces of the fish now. Before it had only been one piece for the price of Rm16.80 which I find to be a bit on the steep side and as much as I like how this tasted, I do not have so much money to fork out all the time. 

So I am happy to say that this pleased me greatly and I enjoyed every bite of my grilled Saba fish with some lemon juice.

Tamago Mayo Mentai is my all time favourite sushi. Sushi Rice is wrapped with seaweed and topped with Tamago and Melted Mayonnaise on the top. It just melted in my mouth.

It was a good lunch for us. The food was good but the service was a bit slow maybe because it was too busy. It is one of the reasonably priced Japanese Restaurant for me.

Sushi Zanmai had always been our family favorites. Located in the new wing of the mall, the restaurant is juts as packed as it is and we usually waited around 10 minutes to get our seats there.Serving a good quality of Japanese food at the affordable price, we always be there and enjoy their delights. I had the saba shioyaki which was pretty good where the fish is well grilled with salt and served hot. Fresh meat of the saba just perfect and it does not have a very fishy smells too.

I have ordered chicken katsu don (a bowl of rice topped with a deep-fried chicken cutlet, egg, and condiments) which is one of my favourite. The chicken is crispy, the egg is well cooked and some special soy sauce make the rice more tasty. Overall, i think the food is worth the price.

Grilled IKA!!!!! A must ordered food when we are in japanese restaurant. Grilled squid in Sushi Zanmai is big in portion. With the squeezed of lemon, perfect. Meat is juicy and succulent. But it is not grilled to crisp. Depends on your preference for a grilled seafood. Whether you prefer crispiness over juicy meat or both or just juicy meat alone can satisfy your tastebuds. Overall, this is good.

Anyone craving for tempura?!I love it when I am craving for fried food but fried chicken is too fattening so I will go for assorted vegetables tempura in Japanese restaurant. Zanmai is good enough for average japanese cuisine. Ordered tempura as ala carte, you can actually order udon with it as a side dish. Since I am taking it as a snack, I got a chance to order other main dish Not too oily and juicy. Definitely a dish for your fried food craving.

Sushi Zanmai in One Utama is always packed and long queue. Managed to get in a table of two after 20minutes.Stirred fried beef in Sushi Zanmai was awesome. Awesome in a way it is not expensive but meat came in big portion, and tender enough to ask for more! Not too salty but just nice to eat with rice. Beef bento set was reasonable in price. If you are not someone that can queue for long, try to go to the Zanmai in Paradigm.
