    We ended up here out of convenience. The hot & sour soup is amazing!! The service was good!! The drinks were ok!!

    So bad. This fish discolored. Immediate stomach ache lol. I don't suggest order from here.....

    Spare ribs from Bille Tse
    Bruce K.

    Delivery. Ribs were good. Sushi was meh. Ordered a late dinner for delivery from Billy Tse. Nothing unremarkable and it arrived on time, packed nicely. Plenty of the usual sides including a big tub of duck sauce and a smaller of hot mustard. An appetizer of barbeque short ribs was excellent. Already off the bone and cooked in a sweet sauce, they were not drowning in sauce. Delicious. Three different sushi rolls were packed into a second container. Not too bad but unremarkable. A little loosely assembled but good. A-OK. I'd recommend sticking to the cooked foods for next time though.

    Boston Maki on left (two eaten) and Unagi (eel) maki on right.

    Stopped in here completely at random. Was walking around waiting for something I arrived way too early for and jumped in here to grab a bite. First off, I would like to say that I think they have an interesting setup, the sushi bar, main dining area, and bar area is kept separate from each other. As for the food, I ordered The Boston Maki and the Unagi (eel) hand roll. I was brought Boston and Unagi maki, when I mentioned to them that I had asked for an Unagi hand roll, they were apologetic and fixed the issue quickly. The Boston and Unagi maki were solid. There was a nice combination of ingredients, and the fish was of high quality. However, I was not wowed at then. They were quite good, but nothing to write home about. Perhaps a little better than the stuff you get at the supermarket (rice seems better also) I would also like to say that while using lettuce in Maki is an interesting idea, I would have liked it to be a little more prominent. I will give them credit for not skimping in the eel in the hand roll. However, I will say that I would have liked a little more greens to balance out the fish, and a bit more sauce to tie everything together. The prices were also quite high. While I get these kinds of places are generally not cheap, especially when they are in the city, I would like more than really solid food for these prices. Service was good!

    Beef and Broccoli
    Duane S.

    Ordered Beef and Broccoli at for delivery on phone. Cost was $21, no rice included. It was listed as $14 on menu posted to Yelp, I am used to paying $11 for this meal and other Chinese restaurants. The delivery was prompt and the order taker was professional. The beef used was a very fatty cut. The meal was a whole was bland. They did include a container of hot mustard and a packet of soy sauce, but I still had to reach for more spices at home to doctor it up.

    Wide-open street view. Nicely made martini.

    Chose BT's Asian and Sushi restaurant in the North End for lunch as alternative to the many fine Italian restaurants in the area when the better restaurants were not yet open. BT serves a tasty meal and overall good value from the luncheon menu available even on a Saturday afternoon. Sushi boat for 1 at $19 (pic uploaded) and vegetable tempura for $10 were very good. Tip: Ask to sit closer to the widow with wide-open street view (pick uploaded) if you prefer to avoid some of the viewless and dark seating areas. One Gripe: No beers on tap. So ordered instead a martini, which was well made at $9. We would return. If you think this review with photos is useful, funny or cool, I'd appreciate ur feedback by clicking below.

    Billy Tse's was so accommodating! We had a reservation for 21 that was cancelled last minute at another restaurant and the staff at Billy's was so amazing. The food and drinks were excellent and the staff made it so much fun. Will be coming back for sure. Love it here!!!!!

    Pork in the veggie, tofu w/white wine sauce menu item.

    Cozy little diner in the north end with strong drinks and delicious food. The thai noodles, miso soup, and vegetarian sushi are all great.

    I was recommended this place by one of my friends, and I really loved it! Definitely appreciated…read morethe wide variety of the menu as well as the kindness of the staff, especially the hostess! I'm not sure how many there are, but she was Asian with long black hair. Unfortunately, I was having a pretty bad day before heading over, so my attitude was not what it should have been. To my surprise, the hostess didn't retaliate or display any bad attitude toward me, which in turn motivated me to be kinder :) It definitely costs nothing to be kind, and I was definitely grateful that she provided such impeccable service! Great casual spot; prices are fairly reasonable. I'd definitely recommend!

    My friend and I ended up here spontaneously while we were both running errands on Newbury St. I was…read morein the mood for something Asian, we decided on sushi, and we vaguely remembered that one of our colleagues, who is from Japan, had said something about this place. That sealed the deal for Sakabayashi. I have to admit, though: we both got a little sticker shock when we opened the menu. The menu was extensive and everything sounded good, but it took us a while to figure out what we actually wanted to spend. At one point I told my friend, "If you want to leave, it's okay. I won't mind. We can just go." He said, "I'm fine if you're fine." I said, "I'm fine if you're fine." And then we basically just stared at each other and continued struggling with the menu. Eventually, we accepted that dinner was going to be more than $30 and shared the chicken karaage ($10), then each ordered the chef's pick nigiri ($30). The karaage was solid: crispy, yummy, nicely presented, and good with the mayo dipping sauce. But the nigiri made my eyes POP. MAN OH MAN was it FRESH. It was so good. That was basically all I could think about while eating it. I've eaten a lot of sushi in my life, although I still have the palate of a college student...and sometimes the wallet, too. I've definitely had sushi where I've thought, "This tastes like nothing," or "Why isn't the rice seasoned?" or, worse, "This doesn't taste right...I don't think this is very fresh." This was the opposite. The fish actually had flavor. Everything tasted fresh and delicious, and the rice and fish worked together the way good nigiri should. I wish I had slowed down and appreciated each piece more instead of inhaling it. I will absolutely be coming back. Now I know where to go when I'm craving genuinely good-quality sushi and am willing to spend a little more for it. The restaurant itself is classy, bright, neat, and polished without feeling stuffy. It would be a great place to catch up with a friend or for a date night. Although for a date, maybe don't feel bad about splitting the bill. It's the modern era anyway.

    There are meals you remember because they taste good, and then there are experiences that change…read morethe way you think about food. Three 1 One Omakase was one of those experiences. It introduced me to new textures, flavors, aromas, and, most importantly, a deeper appreciation for the culture behind the food. From the moment we arrived, Chef Wei, his wife Carrie, and the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. The atmosphere felt intimate, as though we had been invited into someone's home rather than a restaurant. Every detail felt intentional, from the minimalist design and calming ambiance to the subtle aromas throughout the space. Learning that Three 1 One was originally a one-bedroom apartment made the experience even more meaningful. The evening reminded me of a trip to Phu Quoc, Vietnam, where local islanders welcomed my fiancé and eight friends into their home to share a meal prepared from that day's catch. Coincidentally, there were ten guests gathered around the counter at Three 1 One, just as there had been ten of us in Vietnam. In both places, strangers came together over exceptional food and genuine hospitality. That feeling stayed with me throughout the evening. My fiancé and I celebrated our 11th anniversary here as we began exploring Michelin-starred restaurants together. After traveling throughout North and South Vietnam, where his family is from, we returned with a renewed appreciation for food and the stories it tells. We were excited to discover such a thoughtful Michelin-starred restaurant so close to home. The 19-course omakase felt like a journey. The opening truffle sea bream with mizuna and sudachi sauce awakened the palate with bright citrus and earthy richness. The Kegani Hokkaido hairy crab with dashi jelly and tomato dashi mousse became my fiancé's favorite. Once mixed together, it was creamy, savory, delicate, and refreshing. His reaction said it all: "Wow." The tako (octopus) with house-made sweet soy sauce highlighted the natural flavor of the seafood beautifully, while the Tokobushi somen with abalone, wheat noodles, yam, okra, and cold dashi became one of my favorite courses. It was refined yet bold, layered with umami, and unexpectedly reminded me of the haenyeo women of Jeju Island, whose tradition of free-diving for seafood gave me an even greater appreciation for the ingredients. Another standout was the Amadai Uroko Yaki (crispy-scale tilefish). The contrast between the crisp scales and tender fish created a texture I'd never experienced before. Along with the abalone course, it was one of the highlights of the evening. The Aji horse mackerel with ginger, chives, sesame, and nori provided a refreshing transition before the sushi. The sushi alone deserves its own review. Every piece reflected remarkable craftsmanship and precision. Watching Chef Wei prepare each bite was part of the experience itself. The rice was beautifully seasoned, and every ingredient felt balanced. My favorite piece was the uni (sea urchin). It was incredibly smooth, rich, and almost buttery. My second favorite was the Hokkaido hotate (scallop), with its delicate smokiness, sweetness, and juicy texture that left me wanting another bite immediately. We also tried selections from the additional menu, along with a pear-toned sake that paired beautifully with the meal. More than anything, what stayed with me wasn't just the food, but the feeling of the evening. It was an experience built around craftsmanship, hospitality, culture, and sharing a meal with others. Thank you to Chef Wei, Carrie, and the entire team for making our 11th anniversary unforgettable and for giving us such a memorable first Michelin-star dining experience. We look forward to returning.

    This was my first Omakase experience, and I honestly don't know how anything will ever top it! From…read morethe moment you walk in, the atmosphere is personalized and incredibly welcoming. We went through 18 courses of the freshest, highest-quality fish. Chef Wei's precision is amazing to watch, and the progression of the meal was perfectly paced. He is truly an artist! If you have allergies, they are exceptionally accommodating. I have a crab allergy, and they didn't just skip the course, instead they prepared a thoughtful, high-end substitution so I never felt like I was missing out on the full experience. While it is a splurge, Chef Wei ensures you get your money's worth through the quality of the ingredients and the flawless service. An absolute 10/10 for a special occasion!
