I had such a great experience at this Japanese restaurant. The atmosphere was really nice,modern, clean, and relaxing, which made it a perfect place to enjoy dinner. The vibe felt cozy but still elegant. The food was amazing, especially the fresh fish. You can really taste the quality. The sashimi was incredibly fresh, soft, and full of flavor. Every slice melted in your mouth. The sushi was also beautifully prepared and tasted just as good as it looked. Everything felt very high quality and ca

This lunch special is seriously unbeatable for NYC. For the price, you get a complete meal with generous portions and multiple sides, making it one of the best value lunches I’ve come across. Great food, friendly service, and a perfect spot for a quick lunch break

Fantastic lunch!!! The Tantan Ramen was so flavorful and delicious spicy. The Yuzu Mimosa was refreshing, and the Sapporo draft beer was the perfect finish. Sat at the bar and received excellent service from P. and BJ. both were friendly and attentive. The restaurant filled up within minutes of opening. Looking forward to coming back and trying the Bluefin Tuna Uni Don. 🍜🍺✨

Lack of service when you press the button in the booth ruined the whole visit. My GF ran out of water and wanted another, and my GFs mom just wanted a fork because she was having a hard time eating the noodles with the chopsticks. They only came straight away with the bill as soon as you press the Pay button. Simple service things of ignoring customers calls shouldn't be this difficult. Writing this review stinks because when we asked a local, they said this was the place to go for great ram

Great experience! Our waiter was very friendly and the hand rolls were great. We ordered the set, which was served individually by the chef at the counter. We also ordered the wasabi cucumber and spicy tuna dip. I highly recommend the spicy tuna dip if you’re here. It’s a balance of spice, tuna, and crisp with the rice chips. It was my favorite dish!

The food was mediocre at most. Came here for the first time and was hoping for something good. It’s a self-serving restaurant. I’m not sure if the person in the front speaking English or not, because after I gave her my order for the noodles, she looked at me and asked me to point out the one I just ordered on the menu with pictures. That was weird. The texture of the udon was nice and chewy. The flavor of the curry was nice, but I think they put too much starch in it, and it was too gluey. The

An excellent experience. From the moment you arrive, they make you feel right at home. The service was incredible—very friendly and attentive to ensuring everything was perfect. The food is spectacular; the blend of Japanese cuisine with a Peruvian touch takes it to another level. Every dish is packed with flavor, and the quality of the ingredients really shines through. It also makes me happy to support fellow Peruvians who are working hard here in the United States. You can feel the effort, pa

Angel’s Share is one of my favorite bar experience in New York. It has quiet and hidden feeling, but not too serious, very comfortable. The cocktail was very well made and beautiful, and staff was kind without being too much. I like that the atmosphere feel Japanese but also very New York at same time. It is good place when you don’t want loud crazy bar, but want good drink and nice mood. すごく落ち着くバーです. Price is not cheap, but the quality and atmosphere make sense. I would love to come back again

Katsuhama is one of my must-visit restaurants every time I come to New York. The tonkatsu here is simply outstanding. The breading is perfectly fried—light, crispy, and never greasy. Every bite has that perfect balance of a crunchy exterior and a tender, juicy interior. The pork is incredibly soft and flavorful, making it one of the best tonkatsu experiences I’ve had anywhere. You can really tell that great care goes into the preparation. The quality is consistently excellent, which is why I k

Such a great bang for your buck - AYCE and drink for $60! The menu is very salmon forward, especially the rolls. I know some people don’t like it but I like to switch up and get some galbi and beef wrapped enoki to avoid flavor fatigue. They actually have some really great specially pieces and dishes - you get 1 special app, 15 pieces of sashimi and 15 pieces of nigiri in the AYCE. I wouldn’t say the service is slow - you just have to keep a regular ordering pace on the iPad they leave with you

The sun was out, cherry blossoms were in full bloom, so we stopped by here after walking around the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, honestly perfect timing and vibes. This place is super popular and I get why. It was packed but the service was insanely quick and efficient, which I appreciated. We shared the chirashi (9/10) and a spicy tuna roll (7/10) and it was honestly more than enough food for both of us. The sashimi is chef’s choice so you’re getting whatever’s freshest that day. Overall, the qual

From Apps to Entrees everything was stellar and delicious. We ordered the kimchi, pickled Daikon and cucumbers with jalapeños. Crispy chicken with Bao bun and pork belly with ramen noodles and to finish it off the steak with greens! They offer NA beers which is perfect for dry January! What an amazing experience.

We had a delightful dinner at this restaurant yesterday. The food was exceptional, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We ordered the Chicken Katsu curry don and the Chicken Nanban hot soba, both of which were incredibly delicious. The portion sizes were generous, ensuring we had enough to satisfy our appetites. The service was impeccable, and the ambiance was warm and inviting. To complement our meal, we also ordered a Japanese beer and a Hinode cocktail, both of which were equally impressive.

I recently visited Mamsushi and overall it was a really good experience. We ordered three different signature sushi rolls and they were honestly 10/10. Everything tasted fresh, the presentation was beautiful, and each roll had great flavor. You can definitely tell they focus on quality. For appetizers, we had the fried octopus. It was really good — crispy on the outside, tender on the inside — and the sauce that came with it complemented it perfectly. For dessert, we ordered the coconut flan,

A great ramen franchise! The portions are generous, and the broth is rich and flavorful. The pork was a little dry, but the pieces were large, and they give you three generous slices. The prices are reasonable considering the portion size and quality of the food. My only complaint is that gratuity is added automatically, with the lowest option starting at 18% even for a party of one. Overall, a satisfying meal and good value for their ramen.

We’ve enjoyed two experiences at Rule of Thirds but this review is for our most recent, brunch, visit. Let me start by saying that the space is hip and cool and the service has always been tremendous. The food is, for the most part, very good and near great in some cases. The chicken katsu was absolutely terrific. The bread was soft, the chicken crispy, and just enough sauce. The salad was okay, it was fresh but we tasted very little hot honey. The Japanese breakfast set was really good but just

We had such an amazing experience at Y Space BBQ! We came in to celebrate a birthday and everything from start to finish exceeded our expectations. The food was absolutely delicious with high quality meats, great variety, and everything was fresh and full of flavor. You can really tell they take pride in what they serve. The atmosphere was lively yet comfortable which made it perfect for a special occasion. What truly made our night was our server Amanda. She was incredibly attentive, friendly,

I come here often, and the Tonkotsu ramen is so good and tasty. The location is really good, the customer service is really nice, and the ambiance is quiet and cozy. It’s consistently good, and it always feels worth coming back.

Ayce. Food was decent. Enough to fix sushi craving. Staff works really fast, food came out relatively fast too. Really liked their tempura, it got me by surprise, it was meaty and good ratio with breading. Will definitely come back again

The food at YSO Sushi on Ridgewood was absolutely delicious. We tried the Volcano rolls, New York rolls, California rolls, and spider rolls, and everything was fresh and well prepared. The Volcano rolls and New York rolls were especially outstanding-full of flavor and perfectly balanced. You can really tell they use quality ingredients. Highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back.

There were two of us dining at this restaurant, and overall it was a wonderful experience. The service was exceptional. I remember when a little water spilled on the table, and a waiter appeared almost instantly to wipe it up (like they had someone monitoring the table at all times 😂). The food was overall great, although the brussels sprouts didn’t quite meet my expectations. The Duck Duo was also a bit different from what we had anticipated, and the meat lacked tenderness and had more fatty t

First time diner but definitely will not be my last. We arrived on Saturday right before the afternoon rush. We ordered a few appetizers and Ramen bowls. Their Yuzu green lemonade is such a palette cleanse. My favorite appetizers were the Purple yam fries with this banging sauce in the side. The fried shumai were big and full of flavor. The Tuna ceviche I had as my entree with two sides of wonton chips sooooo tasty. Katsu was my least favorite no flavor profile at all. My partner had the chichar

Made a reservation for a special occasion at Sushi Yasuda for its Michelin rating, cozy aesthetic, and convenient location from Grand Central. Overall the experience was very good. The service was excellent from beginning to end, as was the space itself. It felt very much like eating in Japan in terms of the warm glow, dedicated chefs, and minimalist presentation. The lunch set was good value for a nice variety of fish. Although if I went again I would stick to raw only. The black cod and

Mr. Taka Ramen is THE ramen spot! There aren't many dining tables and a few counter chairs but it makes it cozy and not overstimulating. The ramen is the best around. It's fresh, the broth and noodles are delicious and they have many different options. Our go to is the spicy tonkotsu, but we've tried them all and none would disappoint. Reservations are probably a good idea, just because of the small venue but the service is quick and efficient. You get a real authentic feel at this place and it

This was the most authentic Japanese dining experience I’ve had in New York City—it genuinely felt like being transported back to Japan. The sushi was exceptionally fresh, inventive, and beautifully executed. The atmosphere was equally impressive, closely resembling a traditional Japanese restaurant, further enhanced by staff who primarily spoke Japanese. A standout detail was the presentation of the sushi over various types of seaweed, adding both flavor and a thoughtful touch. We ordered the m

Stunning. I treated myself to lunch today at the Chelsea location. I came between lunch and dinner and was seated quickly. Food was delicious, service was paced well, staff was very kind. My check was presented halfway through my meal because they were ending lunch and my server was very sweet about it. I ordered dessert to be sent to me when my meal was done and paid my check. Everything went smoothly.

Sushi counter is so good!! I stopped by to grab a few rolls to take to the park with me and they were incredible. I got the spicy tuna, spicy salmon, and California roll and the spicy tuna was by far my favorite. It was super quick service and 3 rolls for 13$ in this economy was a great deal! Loved the grab and go vibe and will definitely be back for more!!

The first course was oysters; while their freshness was adequate, they lacked the pure, sweet quality that diners often eagerly seek, instead carrying a faint—though not severe—fishy undertone. The Amberjack offered a delightful texture—both moist and smooth—standing out as one of the most memorable dishes of the entire meal. However, the dishes served during the middle portion of the meal were, on the whole, rather mediocre and conventional, lacking any significant highlights. Several dishes, i

At Blue Ribbon Sushi Restaurant, classic Japanese dishes are served à la carte, either at the sushi bar or in the authentic tatami rooms, which offer a great deal of privacy. The quality and flavor were outstanding, and the freshness of the fish convinced me again and again—so much so that we ended up dining there every evening. Unfortunately, this quality also comes at a price. At around $80 per person, it is not cheap, but the excellent service and the exceptional food fully justify the cost.

Got a ton of stuff. The Sushi for 2 which came with a Rainbow Roll, Dragon Roll, 12 pieces of Nigiri, and Miso Soup. Also ordered two additional rolls: the Magic Roll and Heart Throb roll. Fav out of all of them was the Heart Throb for sure, the sauce they put on it was awesome. The others were pretty good, and Nigiri was fresh.

Came here for udon and left really impressed. Everything felt fresh and well done. The cucumber was simple but hit the spot. Tempura came out hot and crispy, not greasy at all. The udon was the main reason to come. Noodles had a nice chew and the broth had a lot of depth. Tried the katsu curry udon and it was super satisfying, the cutlet stayed crispy and the curry had a good rich flavor. The tempura udon was more on the lighter side but still really good. Portions are big, easily about 40 pe

Stopped by after noticing their new Sushi Taco promotion outside, and I’m glad I did! We tried both the salmon and tuna Sushi Tacos, and they were fresh, flavorful, and had a great crispy texture. Such a fun twist on sushi! The menu also offers a nice variety of sushi, ramen, and udon, so there’s something for everyone. The staff were friendly, and the food came out quickly. A great lunch spot in Midtown, especially if you’re looking to try something a little different. I’ll definitely be back!

One of those quiet little places I almost want to keep to myself. A cozy Japanese home-style restaurant with only two set menu options, and reservations are pretty much a must. Once inside, it feels calm and intimate — just a handful of guests, soft conversations, and beautifully simple food. Everything is clean, balanced, and comforting without trying too hard. The kind of meal that makes you slow down and appreciate subtle flavors. Perfect spot for a peaceful brunch or lunch when you want so

Sushi & Co is a wonderful place to visit, truly! When we came in, we were greeted with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. All of the staff were very nice, and the food was on another level! It had a stunning representation, and it tasted very good! But, the menu didn't have lots of options, so maybe add something?... Like onigiri, or tempura. Otherwise, this place is worth a visit!

This place is amazing! The ingredients are high quality and the food tastes great, you can tell from the very first bite. Most importantly, the staff are super kind, polite, and provide excellent service. They were attentive and gave great recommendations, which made the whole experience even better. I’ll definitely be back! 😊

It's $17 per person for weekday lunch, before tips. Not expensive, but not cheap. They have enough variety to satisfy most. Certain items are better than others. Chicken wings are good! It's an additional $3 for drinks, per person. The sushi station is not good. Bathrooms are a little messy.

I had a wonderful dining experience at Wokuni. The restaurant has a really nice ambience — modern, comfortable, and perfect for both casual dinners and slightly more special occasions. From the moment you walk in, the space feels polished but still very welcoming. We started with miso soup, which was warm, balanced, and exactly what you want to begin a Japanese meal. I also had pineapple juice, which was fresh tasting and refreshing, especially alongside the food. For appetizers, the mackerel

A really great tea house with desserts! They used to have a lot of tea options but it looks like now it's limited. My favorite thing from the recent visit was the black sesame creme brulee! The hojicha ice cream on the parfait was great, the parfait itself was ok. The service was quick and everything came out fast! The space is small though so if you're coming during peak hours it might be a wait.

I would love to leave a review for this Japanese restaurant 🍣 The food was incredibly fresh and absolutely delicious. Since I’ve been to Japan, I can confidently say that the grilled mackerel tasted exactly like the one served in Japan. It was an amazing experience! The sushi was delicious, the skewers were great, and the beer was very good as well. Everything was full of flavor and beautifully prepared. The only downside was the kani salad it was warm, and the cucumber wasn’t crunchy. That was

Since Ootoya Chelsea first opened I have been a fan of this authentic Japanese restaurant. Lots of Japanese visitors came to din in, a proof that food is good and has quality. Food is made freshly, ingredients are also fresh from Japan. There is also a bento box style. I got the salmon saikyo yaki set for U$25. Delicious

Kyuramen is a cute restaurant. It is pretty spacious and can accommodate big groups as well as solo dining. We got the karaage as an appetizer and it was pretty good. The meat was tender and juicy and the outside was crispy and had a little bit of crunch. The sauce complemented the chicken as well. I was happy to see that they had vegetarian ramen if you don’t want a meat heavy ramen. The noodles were chewy and delicious. There was also vegetable dumplings which were good. For $7 you can make it

NYC has no shortage of Japanese restaurants, but the ones that really taste like Japan are few, and the ones that get the whole feel right on top of that, the Showa-era room, the service, all of it, you can count on one hand. You could tell the bartender was newer, though only in small ways, because the service itself was smooth and the timing already had a polish to it. She was warm in just the right measure, friendly without overdoing it, happy to answer questions and point you toward somethin

Great sake list. This place reminds me of a place in Osaka where we ate and drank in a small family owned place that was intimate and boisterous. I'm happy that places like this exist in NYC.

Amazing food and consistently great quality! I’m never disappointed when I eat at Hinomaru. The ramen is always rich, flavorful, and comforting. On my most recent visit, I tried the Salmon Don, and it was incredibly fresh, light, and delicious—perfect for warmer weather. Whether you’re craving a hearty bowl of ramen or something refreshing, Hinomaru always delivers. Highly recommended!

Enjoyed it simple yet good ramen. Especially enjoyed the Tan Tan Ramen which I was looking to experience again since my visit to Tokyo Japan. Good prices and a classic ramen joint atmosphere

One of the best bars in the city! Very unpretentious and charming. The owner Masahiro Urushido was unassuming and incredibly welcoming, really friendly staff, great and creative drinks made with a lot of thought and care, and delicious food. The best gin and tonic in Manhattan- properly chilled and very smooth, mortadella sandwhich and hanburger were delicious. Excellent value for money and totally lives up to its well-deserved reputation!

I love Raku it's Japanese! The food is great and the attention is great, the Bento box with pork katsu is amazing! It was very cool that the waiter remembered that i liked Sapporo because I came yesterday and he offered it again. Super sushi deluxe was very very very good and full of amazing flavor! Would definitely come back again ❤️

TabeTomo is a ramen spot in the East Village with highly recommended ramen. The tonkotsu ramen is the anchor of the menu and the broth is the main event. It is deeply flavored, porky, and built for the kind of meal that actually keeps you full. The chashu is generous and the soft boiled egg is a worthy addition to the order. Portions run large across the board, which makes the value strong relative to what you are paying. The tsukemen is another reason people keep coming back. The noodles arriv
