About Sunset Table
Sunset Table is a beloved neighborhood sushi & poke spot in Boston, MA, with a cheerful feel and counter-service seating with reclaimed wood tables. The kitchen leans into sushi & poke done well, smoking their meats in a custom offset pit out back.
The signature item to try first is the Salmon Poke Bowl, which has earned a loyal following. The rest of the menu rounds it out with options like Spicy Tuna Roll, Dragon Roll, Edamame, plus rotating specials that change with the season. Portions are generous for the price point ($$$), and the kitchen is consistent — orders come out fast even when the place is full.
On a typical day you'll find downtown commuters grabbing a hot lunch, especially around the lunch and dinner rushes. The bar pours craft sodas, local kombucha on tap, and house-brewed iced tea. Vegetarian and gluten-free options are clearly marked on the menu. The dining room is clean, the music is at a reasonable volume, and the wifi works.
For ordering, catering trays for offices and parties can be ordered with 24 hours notice. The price-to-quality ratio is what brings most people back a second time. Whether you're new to Boston or a longtime resident hunting for a reliable sushi & poke fix, Sunset Table earns a spot in the regular rotation.

I work nearby and stop in at least twice a week. The Spicy Tuna Roll hits every time. Service is quick, the space is clean, and they take dietary requests seriously which I appreciate. Easy five stars from me.
Great sushi & poke option for the area. The Edamame was the highlight, big portion and well-priced. Seating is limited so if you come at peak hours plan on takeout. I'll be back.
Mixed feelings. The Dragon Roll was excellent and the cashier was friendly, but my side came out cold and they were out of two of the things I wanted to order. Probably worth another try, but not the experience I was hoping for.
Honestly impressed. We tried three different items between the table and the Edamame stole the show. The staff genuinely seemed to enjoy being there which makes a difference. Cannot recommend enough.
Hidden gem. We were in the neighborhood for an appointment and stopped here based on a friend's recommendation. So glad we did. The California Roll was unreal — clearly made with care. We're already planning our next visit.
Sunset Table has become my regular weekday lunch. Consistent quality, generous portions, and the staff has started to recognize me. I usually grab the Edamame but I've worked through most of the menu and haven't had a miss yet.
