    Salmon teriyaki bento box; eel cucumber roll
    Gwendolyn C.

    [Takeout Review] Food: 4/5 | Service: N/A | Experience: N/A Great takeout/delivery spot for affordable sushi rolls and bento boxes! I have ordered from here a few times and enjoy their consistency as well as the great price. I would not expect super high quality compared to some of the other takeout sushi spots, but for the value this place is great. What I ordered: * eel cucumber roll * salmon bento box with california roll Things to know: * great for take out; have not eaten at the restaurant before * fairly mediocre, but great value

    Teriyaki chicken
    Jonathan C.

    I really enjoyed the lunch bento boxes here! The teriyaki chicken was not bad, though I would have preferred the chicken to be in slices instead of chunks. The chicken katsu was really good! It's tender and fried well, and served on top of a bed of rice. The side salad was not bad, with a giant slice of fresh tomato on top. I loved the california rolls here, as well as the miso soup!

    Dragon Egg
    Tessie V.

    It was alright. I usually order from Isohama, so I have a high standard. I ordered the Tokyo Chicken bento set. Fire Island roll and the Dragon Egg. The Dragon Egg is lobster meat with shrimp mixed in, all wrapped in avocado. It's decadent, and is much better mixed with rice. By itself it's kind of a disaster. It didn't taste like much either, I would skip it. The Tokyo Fried Chicken set was soggy. And smaller than the usual bento sets from sushi places. The chicken was seasoned well. Shumai is delightful but very hard to screw up hahha. Bento didn't come with miso. The Fire Island roll was very hard to eat -- overwhelming smoky taste that ruined the flavour of the roll. Not my cup of tea. Service was quick and friendly, I will try again maybe it's just what I ordered. But meh overall

    Food and delivery service were outstanding. The delivery (ordered Thru seamless) arrived in much less time than estimated, which was a pleasant surprise, and the delivery person was upbeat and positive, giving a big thank you as he dropped off my food. Food: Everything was delicious. - Dinosaur egg. A perfect little treasure. Every once in a while you get a special food that I think of as a little food treasure, looking like a beautifully packaged gift, with every bite being a delicious, flavor bursting treat. This was one of those treasures I will absolutely order again. Spicy shrimp wrapped with avocado and topped with pretty red roe. - Sushi deluxe platter. This came with a well presented, assorted mix of salmon, tuna, yellowtail, shrimp and eel sushi, plus a roll. All of the sushi was excellent. - Lobster roll. Very good. - Gyoza (dumplings). My son's favorite, and he liked them. Definitely recommend for fantastic sushi and prompt, friendly delivery service.

    Hanabi is my go to for take out and delivery sushi in the upper east side! My favorite items include the gyoza, cucumber roll and some of the many different combos they have. I really enjoy the sushi platter. Their delivery always comes quickly and very neatly packed.

    I stopped by because I was craving sushi and did not want bar food my friends were eating during football Sunday next door. Hanabi looked clean, so I walked in and ordered two salmon avocado rolls. The lady behind the counter processed my order and I took a seat. The sushi chef went right to work and made my rolls super quick. I was eating in less than 10 minutes. The salmon avocado rolls were fresh and the fish to rice ratio was proportional. I was surprised by how fresh the fish was! Compared to other quick sushi spots in the city, this place definitely is ranked up there. Everyone was friendly and service was great!

    Seaweed Salad
    Pallabi M.

    Such a great lowkey normal sushi spot in NYC. All of the rolls were fresh and priced reasonably. I ordered the salmon avocado, white tuna avocado, spicy crunchy crab, and eel avocado rolls with a side of spicy mayo. I also got seaweed salad but it was kind of cold and tasted kind of frozen even. However the rolls were spot on.

    This is a go to place for unpretentious, no frills sushi. The thing with sushi in NYC is that the cheaper ones tend to use old/low quality fish and the "high end" ones tend to be overpriced and not really appropriate if you're just having those "sushi craving" moments. For $18.50 you can get a deluxe sushi platter and for $12.95 you can get a chicken teriyaki Bento, cheaper than most of the sushi places in UES while the fish is still relatively fresh. They pack their orders nicely for transportation/delivery.

    I so love eating a tasty box! I mean, how can a man resist when a tasty box is thrown his way for only $9? Granted, this ain't no fancy box at all. Kind of a bare bones Japanese joint. Very fast foodie looking, with only a few tables and chairs, and no real decor to speak of. When I was here chowing down on my box today they had country music playing. No, really. That being said, it seems everything is cheap here. Food came out fast. It was edible. Good portion that was just right for lunch. Came with soup or soda. As I wrapped my lips around this box I also realized it was on a paper plate and not in the traditional bento box. No biggie but I do prefer a real box. Overall, it's ok here if you're not expecting anything amazing. Sometimes a man has a hard time passing up a cheap box!

    California roll and Philadelphia Roll
    Steph S.

    We ordered delivery, and it was packaged nicely. The food traveled well and even looked lovely after its ride to us. We got an order of each gyoza, California roll, Philadelphia roll, chicken pad Thai, sweet 16 roll, and rainbow roll. Food tasted pretty good.

    Ramen was super bland and had a funky noodle texture. Chicken teriyaki was midgrade. Not impressed.

I even took the time to reach out to the company after discovering a bug in the iOS app that prevented customers from adding cards or payment methods. The company responded promptly and kindly offered a reward for reporting the issue, which I appreciated. However, after that experience, I began noticing a larger issue: inconsistency. On more than one occasion, items I paid for were missing from my pickup order. Unfortunately, it happened again today. I had to walk back into the establishment to request the missing food, which was frustrating in itself. What made the situation worse was the uncomfortable interaction with one of the employees--I felt as though I was being looked at with skepticism, as if I weren't being truthful about my own order. While I still love the food and believe in the concept, today's order was disappointing. My wrap wasn't assembled properly, fell apart completely, and made the meal messy and unenjoyable. I honestly found myself wishing I had ordered a salad instead. I hope this feedback is taken constructively, because the food has great potential--but consistency, accuracy, and customer interaction truly matter just as much.

Happy to say I finally had the opportunity to return for an intimate birthday celebration and everything was just how I remembered it. Cute and quaint, with good service and food, a great vibe! Without a doubt I absolutely ordered the roasted corn salad. It has tomatoes, avocado, roasted corn, Romain lettuce, and an amazing dressing. I added the pan seared chicken. The chicken was super flavorful and juicy, and extremely tender, not overdone. The salad was magical just as I remembered it. In addition the guac was fresh and the Hibiscus Margs was a tasty way to wash it all down. It's amazing how I dream about this salad. It's a good thing I don't live close because I would have no problem factoring in this salad which is a little pricey into an almost daily budget. Lol. Needless to say I will not be reminiscing about this salad for two years again. I will be back sooner than you think. A special thanks to our server, whom was a one man show the whole night.

Me and my girl was looking for a coffee shop that was laptop friendly and closed late since we came after work. I was a bit disappointed that they did not serve any alcoholic beverages as I saw a lot of good reviews on that portion. We came, we sat down on a Saturday night. There was only one person at the front and it seemed she was also managing the serving part so it did get pretty hectic at some point. We decided to order the Budae Jigae (Hot Pot), there is no way to alter the spicy level so for those who love spicy spicy, this is for you. Me and my friend was really disturbed by the fact that we were treated some type of way. Maybe it's because we weren't Korean or? Service was slow asf. It took a really long time for them to serve me my iced strawberry matcha drink. And even longer for the food. It was also hard to tag her down, and she seemed pretty annoyed that we had to ask her for multiple items. We were a party of 2 and she only gave us one set of items. I went again by myself the next day to see if it was better service and it was pretty packed. There was actually 3-4 people at the front but even then it was so hard to get someone to take my order, ask for napkins, for the check, etc. While there was no time limit on Saturday, there was a time limit of 1 hour and 30 minutes on Sunday. would I go again? Maybe, but it's def veering towards the no side.
