You better call ahead to eat in this hallway or you might not get a seat or get to eat. "Authentic japanese food" and not a single japanese person works here. Feels kinda like going to tacobell for mexican food. A few blocks over is an amazing authentic sushi place. Take out only tho* Also they only take cash or venmo here👎🏽

Got an order of the chili garlic tuna and the udon noodle bowl. It was absolutely phenomenal! The flavors are well-balanced and complement each other well. Been living here for four years and this was my first time trying this place out. I’m leaving Bethlehem in two days and safe to say this place will be missed! I might just place another order for tomorrow …

Great food. I don't usually like to do sushi this far from the ocean but decided to give this a shot. I am glad I did. Interesting specials, great tasting food, reasonably priced. It is a very small restaurant, kind of like the traditional spots you see in Japan. I am a big dude so I was brushed up against by anyone and everyone walking by. Next time I think I'll sit at the bar to avoid that.

Food was just ok but then I woke up around 2 am and threw everything up. My guess is bc everything is out in the open and it's a very small place. The staff was really nice so it sucks that they are the only good thing about this place.

Good sushi rolls with lots of variety on the menu. They also have very good noodle bowls, which are definitely worth a try. They don't have a liquor license, so it's byob. One thing to note, the restaurant is very small, so seating could be difficult for larger groups.

Best sushi in the area, hands down. BYOB. The garlic tuna app is to die for, and their other dishes are unique and flavorful. It's a small place and you will be squished unless you get the big table in the front, but I liken it to an authentic izakaya-style experience. The service is always prompt and friendly. Highly recommend.

If you have ever been to a major city in Japan you know that every side street has a hidden small restaurant with counter service, a couple tables,and amazing food, and that is what The Other Fish reminds me of. The sushi is amazing but there are other options which are just as great! Watching the shrimp tempura app being hand battered and fried in front of you somehow enhances the flavor. Same with the chicken katsu which may be the best dish on the menu. And don't sleep on the larrel salad which not sure how, but tastes fresher and crisper than any salad I've ever eaten. Plus it helps that the staff is super friendly and it's BYOB.

On a whim we changed our dinner plans at the last minute, and I'm sure glad we did! The food, staff, and ambiance were amazing. Everyone should be getting drunk on a Tuesday. That and the watermelon and tuna special were amazing. Make sure that you belly up to the sushi bar and talk to the staff. They're great!

This is a small, intimate Japanese restaurant. The owner, Matt, is a super guy that will make an enjoyable Japanese entree for you. The special "sushi/sashimi dinner for two" he prepares for us is delicious. The waiter (Yuri) is very friendly and will aim to please you. We highly recommend you try the restaurant for its delectable Japanese style food and warm, cozy environment. For over 10 years, we have enjoyed our visits and take-outs, and hope you will find this restaurant to be your favorite. Tom and Christa (Bethlehem)

This review is based off take out/delivery only. Dine in service may be different. The food is GREAT but the service has gone way down hill in the past couple of years. First of all, they reduced the days and hours that they’re open. I have called at 8:15 and they’ve refused to take my order because it was too late apparently. They used to be open tuesdays but they aren’t anymore. They offer delivery but almost never have a delivery person on. The portions have also gotten smaller. They used to fill soups to the top in plastic tall soup containers. Now they fill flat plastic containers which not only makes it a pain to eat out of, but also equals about half the portion. Idk what’s going on with this place. I gave it a 3 because the food is still awesome but it’s kinda like these guys just don’t care anymore.

Despite being called The Other Fish this restaurant is the only fish game in town doing something special with sushi. The restaurant is cozy and maintains more of a BYOB Izakaya vibe. The staff is warm and welcoming and the food is truly very good. No other sushi restaurant is trying anything other than typical rolls and the fish is equally generous and fresh. The restaurant is cash and venmo only and is priced at least 25% below the area’s average.

The are also very accommodating, I personally like a side of steamed rice with my sushi and it was no problem at all even though this wasn’t explicitly placed on the menu. Overall great experience and can’t wait to go back.

The Other Fish is *so good*. It's a small business in a small restaurant run by the best staff. Yuri is great, and the man who makes the sushi (sorry, not on a first name basis with him) is so talented! Everything is made with such care and the ingredients are always fresh. "The Other Fish" sushi roll is the best I've had, though the Blue Crab, the Natalie, and the Dragon roll are all great too. If you're in the area, absolutely make a reservation for this place!

My wife and I went here on our anniversary and left extremely satisfied. The food was incredible from start to finish, the service top notch, and the prices were reasonable. I can't give it 5 stars cause it's not enough space to comfortably dine inside (I almost tripped and fell on the way to our table!), and they only take cash or Venmo, no card. Besides that, this place rules.

Looking for sushi? Don't go anywhere else in the city of Bethlehem! This restaurant is by far the best of it's kind in the Lehigh Valley area. Sushi chef Matt has taken this talent to it's highest level possible. Along with John and Yuri the three of them make an unbelievable team, Anytime you visit they will have specials which you will not find anywhere else, They're constantly creating new dishes which are sure to please anyone. If you like sushi and love to try different things, don't go anywhere else.

I'm a pretty good cook, so when I go out to dinner I want something special - something I can't do. This was amazing. I loved the spicy seafood soup. They made it as spicy as I wanted it, it was flavorful and served piping hot. The chicken entree was delicious as well! We will definitely go again!

Blown away! I love sushi and thought I had found all the good places in the area. Then friends told us about The Other Fish. This place is incredible! From the sashimi/garlic appetizer to the unique and crazy roll they had as a special (involved kielbasa), to ending with fried Oreos, it was a fantastic experience and we will without question be going back. It is a smaller place so you definitely need a reservation but it is absolutely worth it!

There are a mix of traditional sushi picks and more creative rolls. I got the special (sweet pea roll) which was incredible. My friend got the appetizer special - a spicy tuna empanada. The empanada was also incredible. We almost ordered a second one. The dyno roll was my personal face. The mango salsa on top was *chef kiss fingers*.

Your journey to finding "The Other Fish". Let's paint the picture, you're out and about living it up. You're listening to "Summertime Sadness", because it's getting warm out and we all know that the song was an instant classic the moment Calvin Harris pressed "publish". Suddenly, you're craving sushi, but the last 47 places you've ordered from gave you sushi maki around the diameter of a penny and about the size of a cherry tomato in height. Disappointed by nearly every sushi restaurant's portion sizing, you keep trying new places in an effort to find the perfect roll for the perfect price. You've been trying to find the best sticky rice and the freshest tasting sushi-- you can't give up until you find it. You're on the "Google Site" looking at the highest rated sushi restaurants in the area, but can you trust the opinions of people who have never eaten amazing sushi? Of people who have the time to leave reviews? Is this review written by a minor character in the main story that is YOUR life or is this review even real? You begin to doubt yourself. You begin to doubt your life choices and-- suddenly-- you discover "The Other Fish". What is this place? Where is this place? Why can't I stop reading this review? What is "The Other Fish"? Is there another place called "The Fish"? I don't know, but I do know that this Lehigh Valley restaurant is officially one of my favorite sushi places around. I'm a bit of a sushi aficionado and their sushi was phenomenal. I recommend calling in to place an order, because they can give you a decent estimate of when your meal's ready. The sizing of their portions was perfect and justified their price. I didn't feel like they were penny-pinching and that's reflected in the size and the robust flavor of their food. This isn't just a review-- this is destiny telling you to give this place a try. Good food. Recommend. 10/10

Just OK. Another hyped up asian inspired restaurant. I think it fits better as an asian fusion inspired restaurant. Waaay too many sushi rolls included cream cheese. Was very disapointed in the shrimp tempura roll. It was bland. I have never had a bland tempura roll. My guest got the ramen, which was also disappointing. The broth itself had no flavor. The only flavors that came through were too much sesame oil and chili oil. It almost made the ramen inedible.
