About One Sushi

One Sushi Courtenay Place is a branch of One Sushi, a Wellington-based Japanese food chain known for fresh, great-value sushi and donburi. The Courtenay Place outlet serves the same wide menu found across the group's Wellington-region stores, from classic sushi rolls to nigiri, hot noodle and rice dishes, and side dishes.

The menu covers a broad range of tastes, with vegetarian, meat and seafood sushi options alongside a nigiri selection, hearty hot food like donburi, ramen and udon noodles, and sides such as skewers, tempura, dumplings and miso soup. Popular rolls include the California, Philadelphia, Rainbow and Dragon rolls, each offering a different take on classic sushi combinations.

As part of a wider Wellington-region franchise, One Sushi Courtenay Place brings the brand's focus on natural Japanese food and consistent quality to the busy Te Aro dining strip.

One Sushi Courtenay Place: Fresh Sushi and Donburi in Te Aro

On the busy stretch of Courtenay Place in Te Aro, One Sushi offers Wellingtonians a fast, fresh take on Japanese food, from classic sushi rolls to hearty hot dishes. As part of the wider One Sushi group, this outlet carries the brand's signature promise: fresh food from the best chefs, with a strong focus on flavour and value.

A Wide Sushi Selection

The sushi menu spans vegetarian, meat and seafood options, so there's something for almost every preference. Vegetarian choices include seaweed salad, mixed vege, potato fritter, vege tempura and avocado rolls, while meat lovers can go for crispy, soy or teriyaki chicken. The seafood range is the most extensive, covering spicy fish, prawn tempura, crabstick, mayo tuna, and several salmon combinations paired with avocado, cream cheese, crispy fish or crabstick.

The Popular Rolls

Beyond the standard menu, One Sushi highlights a handful of well-known rolls. The California roll is a natural starting point — the most popular sushi roll outside Japan, and a solid choice for anyone avoiding raw fish. The Philadelphia roll brings together smoked salmon, cream cheese and cucumber, sometimes finished with avocado, onion or sesame seed. For something more elaborate, the Rainbow roll wraps a California roll in sashimi and avocado arranged in alternating colours, while the Dragon roll layers thinly sliced avocado over an eel and cucumber filling to resemble a dragon's scales.

Nigiri and Hot Food

Alongside the rolls, the nigiri selection covers fresh and seared salmon, seared eel and prawn, tempura prawn, crispy chicken and fish, spring rolls, vege tempura and potato fritter — a broad spread for anyone who prefers nigiri over maki.

For something heartier, the hot food menu includes chicken katsu donburi, crispy chicken and teriyaki chicken ramen, beef and seafood udon noodles, crispy chicken curry on rice, crispy chicken fried rice, and chicken katsu with chips. These dishes round out the menu for customers after a full, warm meal rather than just sushi.

Sides and Extras

To finish the meal, sides include chicken and fish skewers, spring rolls, chips, vege and potato tempura, takoyaki balls, dumplings and miso soup — small additions that pair well with any of the mains.

A Familiar Wellington Favourite

One Sushi has grown into a network of stores across the Wellington region, and the Courtenay Place branch puts that same menu right in the middle of Te Aro's dining and nightlife strip. Whether it's a quick sushi grab or a full donburi meal, the Courtenay Place store offers the same fresh, natural Japanese food the brand is known for.
