Bento box with sides
Carissa C.

Lately Chikurun has been my go to DoorDash order because they hit every time! I usually get a bento box because it is an amazing deal. It's approximately 20 dollars for your choice, I usually go with beef negimaki or salmon teriyaki. It comes with vegetables, white rice, two shumai, and California roll inside the box. In addition they give you a miso soup and salad PLUS an app choice of either shumai, gyoza, or shrimp and veg tempura. So extreme bang for your buck not only that but amazing quality always fresh taste. Highly recommend!

I have not been here in years but stopped by today and it was as good as I remembered it to be! Our server was friendly and quick!

I ordered through Doordash right when they opened and food was ready within 30 minutes. We got their 3 roll lunch special and it comes with a salad and a soup. The ingredients are fresh and the rolls are good! Its a great place for lunch! The place has many tables available for dine in as well! The staff aren't very attentive in my opinion. I came in and wasn't greeted for some time. The lady who gave me my order was friendly though! I'd recommend this place if you're looking to satisfy your sushi cravings!

Shrimp Tempura
Kateryna Y.

Not my favorite sushi spot, but not that bad. Shrimps tempura were good though. The service is good, sushi could be better. Regular place with regular prices

My favorite go to for sushi! Indoor or takeout. I've been coming to Chikurin for like a decade now I think. Since I was in high school. A friend of mine lives near here so we always ate here for the lunch special. Anyway, I haven't been back for maybe a year or two, and recently visited this year. The location moved! It is now on a corner instead. Very green decor. Same waiter! Food is delicious as always. Fresh and hot, with great flavor and presentation. Portions are great. The bento dinner is massive and I couldn't finish it all in one sitting. Really good value so I highly recommend. Overall, the restaurant has a fresh new aesthetic, new location, but same great taste and service. Show them some love and support by either dining in or taking out. They offer indoor dining as well as outdoor seating!! This is my go to sushi place, my one and only gripe is the parking situation! (Not their fault though-- I'm just warning my fellow drivers out there) Bath Beach is terrible for drivers. You've got to have eyes like a hawk to catch parking spots as they get taken up rather quick. Try the side streets or deal with the meters.

Yellowtail roll and chirashi.
Mandy L.

I used to love Chikurin, so I ordered some tonight via Ubereat. The food delivered way after the estimate arrive time (more than half hr delay), called the restaurant couple times no one pick up. Finally after the 4th tried, the staff said the delivery was out, then 15 mins later I called again, same answer, it is on the way. Finally after 45 mins after the estimate arrival time, my food is here. Order at 8pm, didn't arrive until 9:45pm. While I am eating, a big bone hide at the yellowtail roll, glad that I didn't swallow it and kids didn't eat that! Then a big raw fish skin on my chirashi.... Hm... never again. There's a lot of different sushi places around the area, Chikurin isn't the only one but definitely one of the worse one.

Rolls
Ilana Z.

We came here for dinner on a Tuesday night around 8pm. The restaurant is pretty small, but the waiters are attentive. The special rolls were delicious, big, and so fresh! We also LOVED the spicy salmon sushi pizza. Definitely recommend coming here for fres

a variety of sushi and rolls
Elisa H.

I had the scallop, naruto, sweet potato, ocean and bagel rolls. Sweet potato regular roll is excellent- total surprise & def order again in the future. Ocean roll that was tuna salmon avo mix n dusted w pistachio? Was really good. Bagel roll is deep fried so can't really go wrong w cream cheese salmon encrusted. The scallop roll was jus a bit of scallop w cucumber strips. Chikurin is a great surprise in quality food albeit the phone service leaves much to be desired.

Crystale Y.

An oldie but a goodie! Been coming here for years and the quality is still the same. Always fresh and never disappoints. Highly recommend the spicy salmon pizza! It's one if my favorite items on their menu. The angel roll is also very good and they're extremely generous with the tobiko. You can't really go wrong with anything you order from here and especially at this price point!

Ordered kani but got crab roll
Mark A.

We ordered Kani roll but they gave us crab roll instead. The sushi rice had zero vinegar smell/seasoning. Everything we asked to substitute they try to charge a dollar more. For example: i want salmon avocado to change cooked salmon avocado; and substitute salad with soup during lunch special. They weren't that stingy about it before but now they look for every opportunity to make money. I used to go there all the time when they were at the old location but since Covid and since they moved to this corner, things went down the hill. One good thing actually, the side salad was pretty fresh with plenty of ginger dressing.

Sakedon
Jessica K.

I have been coming to chikurin religiously these past few months to get my fix of sushi. My absolute favorite go-to order is the Sakedon, which is an order of 12 piece salmon sashimi with rice and your choice of soup or salad. Every time I order, the fish is fresh and so tasty! I can't get enough! and the price is just right, around $20 or so. If I can make it for the lunch special, the lunch bento is an amazing deal! It comes with your choice of meat, tempura, and sides. This is also the only place I know that offers both soup and salad with their lunch specials. And you can never go wrong with a two/three roll lunch special. Orders always come out timely and is always ready for me when I call for pickup. Highly recommend this solid sushi restaurant!

Reasonable pricing with good number of options to choose from. Would recommend for casual dinner or takeout when you feel like eating a lot and not worried about plating/aesthetics.

I'm so happy that this restaurant is just a 2 min walk from my apartment. The food here is amazing…read moreand the ambiance is nice and peaceful. Food and alcohol is fairly priced and all the flavors were so good. The service is quick and food didn't take a while to come out. We ordered shishito peppers, corn ribs, beef sukiyaki, bacon wrapped enoki mushrooms, and Miyazaki a5 Wagyu hot stone grill. * Shishito peppers 5/5 My favorite out of everything we ordered. It's a MUST TRY! The sauce it's in has yuzu so it's nice, savory, a lil sweet, a lil sour, and a little citrusy - it's perfect for my tastebuds. Literally could not get over how good the sauce was. It also tasted good to dip the corn ribs in that sauce!! * Corn ribs 5/5 Grilled ribs with seasoning and cheese, super simple but super good. Can never go wrong with corn ribs! * Beef Sukiyaki 5/5 Nice and flavorful broth, the meat is tender, there's also a knot of clear noodles at the bottom of the bowl. * Bacon Wrapped enoki 5/5 GOOD. Who doesn't love bacon AND mushrooms (only crazy people) ?! Amazing flavor, nice and smokey, with crunchy enoki mushrooms * Miyazaki A5 Wagyu 5/5 Good, nice to order once just to try since it is a little on the pricier side bc it's A5 Wagyu, personally I'd rather go to an A5 Wagyu restaurant if I want A5 Wagyu. Nonetheless, it was nice to try and tasty! Definitely will be coming back regularly since it's so close to home.

I'm going to give Tora some extra points because it's SO hard to find good asian food in this area…read moreof Brooklyn. Tora I think is a true jack of all trades, while many restaurants try to excel in one area I think Tora does amazing at multiple. It's good for sushi, ramen, noodles, etc. Just an overall really well-rounded japanese spot. I think their serving sizes are also very good. Though I'll say I don't think Tora particularly excels in one thing it's not going to be the best ramen or sushi you've had in your life but, for something that's close? Affordable? Has no line? It's definitely the best. Very above average in every regard. Haven't eaten here in person so can't speak on their service but at least their food? Great get pick-up/delivery all the time

While wandering through Bed-Stuy on a weekday evening, my husband and I decided to try out this new…read moresushi spot. It wasn't terrible--but I had a lot of mixed feelings. Food: 3/5 I'm a huge sushi fan, so I was excited when I saw a deluxe sashimi set on the menu. Unfortunately, it didn't quite hit the mark. The scallop was thinly sliced and lacked the rich texture I was hoping for. The salmon and other cuts were decent, but short and oddly shaped--chunky yet small, which made the whole presentation feel a bit off for something labeled deluxe. We also tried to branch out and ordered the short rib entree. For $21, it was shockingly small--definitely a single-person portion, not sharable. I added extra ikura to a salmon donburi bowl for $2, but it was barely a teaspoon's worth--just enough to say it was there. Oddly, the salmon slices in that bowl were thinner than the sashimi we had just eaten, and overall, it left me still hungry even after sharing a maki roll. Lastly, my husband ordered a green salad, which somehow took the entire meal service to arrive. When it finally came, it was just plain romaine, cucumbers, radish, and dressing. For a dinner that clocked in at over $150 (after tip), we definitely left underwhelmed. Service: 3/5 This part wasn't bad, just confusing. We were seated quickly, but the pacing of the meal was strange. Our seaweed salad and soups came out promptly, but the green salad came last, after the hot dishes and nearly after my husband finished eating. Also, a small thing--but when I'm paying $16 for four oysters, I want to know what kind they are. The menu just said "West Coast oysters," but our server couldn't tell us the variety or origin. Not a huge deal, but it added to a general lack of polish that didn't quite match the pricing. I don't think I'd return. For the price, there are better sushi options in Brooklyn with higher quality, better portions, and clearer service. Still, I appreciate new spots opening up in the neighborhood, and I'm always happy to try something new. Hopefully they refine the menu and service with time.

Izakaya Tenzo is a welcome addition to the BedStuy food scene. They'd been on my radar for a while…read moreand we stopped in on a Saturday evening when we wanted dinner but not anything too heavy. This fit the bill exactly. We started with the salmon belly carpaccio which I'd say isn't really a carpaccio because the salmon isn't sliced as thinly as you'd expect. But! I mention that just to set expectations. Nomenclature aside, it's an excellent appetizer. Served in a truffle and ponzu sauce, the salmon is lightly seared which yields two different textures to the fish. It practically melts in your mouth. Highly recommend this dish. For my entree I went with the trio don, which is 6 pieces of sashimi served over your choice of plain or sushi rice (sushi rice for me). The fish was fresh and flavorful. The portion was perfect for me. My boyfriend ordered a yellowtail roll and enjoyed that as well. We also shared a carafe of the cold house sake. I'd definitely come back and try more items on the menu. It's great for sharing and trying new dishes. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the prices were very reasonable.
