Cute place!! I had green tea (good) Blue crab handroll (good, but a few shell fragments (pictured) made it less enjoyable, and is where the star is gone) Snow crab hand roll (good) Scallop hand roll (good) Miso soup (good, but not sure why bowl was only had filled?) Menu pics from June 30 2026 Cute environment! I'd come back again- even with shell mishap. Good service. read more

Quiet spot we happened to walk by. Food looked great, but we had stopped for something that is hard to find, an authentic Japanese highball. We chose a yuzu highball that was spot on to what we just recently had in Tokyo. read more

Handroll Bar Rolling - Shochu Highball - Japanese Near Me - New York, New York

I'd say it's a solid 3. Located near Ktown, across from the Rack, and next to the Path entrance, hard to miss it. We wanted a quick dinner and found this spot with decent reviews (mixed), so here we are... early bird as usual... made a ressie but didn't need it, plenty of seats available. We grabbed 3 counter seats. Ordered the 4 Handroll set, along with a side of chicken karaage, and a hamachi carpaccio. Lots of counter seating with a few sit down tables for parties of 4. Pretty clean aesthetic and clean bathroom. The fried chicken was good (juicy yet crispy), the hamachi was delish (silky smooth with a hint of tang). However the 4 hand rolls were lacking... perhaps it's my selection: spicy tuna (ok), yellow tail (mid), snow crab and blue crab (very fishy, it's a no). The filling to nori ratio was not great... 30/70... all you'll taste is nori. (Compared to DOMO... hand rolls were amazing & would trade). Service was fine. The chef was quiet. We were low maintenance. Had mocktails. Nothing fancy. Overall tho, probably wouldn't return. read more

Came here on a saturday at noon, and there was no one there besides us, so walk ins are probably very feasible. The atmosphere was very nice too. I got the lunch set, which was a really good deal. It was 4 handrolls and a half portion of yuba soba for $28. The fish was very fresh, but other than that, nothing about the sushi was super outstanding. My favorite was the scallop. The yellowtail and crunch spicy tuna were also pretty good. Overall, would recommend for the value if looking for some cheaper handrolls. read more

The perfect sushi stop after a stroll along the west side. I randomly stumbled upon this spot while craving sushi and was a little hesitant to go in since it was right at the tail end of the lunch special, but they still kindly honored it for me. I grabbed a seat at the bar and ended up having such a relaxing experience. One thing I really appreciated was how attentive the chef was as he waited until I was almost done with each hand roll before preparing the next one, so every piece was fresh, crisp, and perfectly timed. The pacing made the meal feel thoughtful instead of rushed, and it turned a spontaneous sushi craving into such an enjoyable dining experience. read more

June 16, 2026, went to try this Japanese restaurant. The service was fast and atmosphere was also good too. The quality of the food for sushi rolls were ok. I have had better. It was pretty pricey but what you expect in a tourist and expensive area. I had 6 Handroll Set , which included yellow tail, salmon, scallop, and snow crab which they charge you extra $4.00. As a business owner I am always traveling and trying different ethnic foods and give my opinion and ratings as a foodie. read more

Went for a quick bite on a Saturday evening, and it wasn't too busy! I ordered the 5-handroll set since I wasn't too hungry, but I will say the handrolls were a bit on the smaller side and I feel like the rice lacked flavor, so the soy sauce + wasabi were necessary! Really cozy/comfortable ambiance, friendly staff, clean restroom, and they also have hooks for your jackets. They offer complimentary miso soup with your meal which is a plus! read more

Stopped by to try this place out with a friend, thought the food was just ok but pretty fun to wrap your own roll and they keep the seaweed dry by putting a plastic wrapper around and adding the fish on the top. A bit on the pricey though even with the lunch special. Good to try it once but probably won't be coming back. Not really that impressed with the food. Friendly staff and convenient location. Pretty empty when i was there on a weekday/Friday afternoon. read more

Overall, the ambience was nice and the servers were awesome (letting us stay late and not rushing us to leave), but the hand rolls were just okay. The menu is nice and straightforward; I ordered the five piece hand roll set and a side of edamame which was great since we could eat edamame while waiting for each piece to come out (not that it took long since the chef timed them well based on when we finished eating each roll). Sitting at the bar is also nice since it's cozy and there's a good amount of space per guest so you're not super crammed in. Also, I appreciated that there were hooks under the bar for bags. The hand rolls themselves were fine, on their own they weren't too flavorful so I definitely had to dip them in soy sauce + wasabi. Payment is via Toast which made it handy for splitting bills and tapping your credit card to pay. I might return, but I do think KazuNori is still my favorite in Manhattan for hand rolls (but at least Handroll Bar Rolling has less of a wait!). read more

Handroll Bar Rolling - Inside - Japanese Near Me - New York, New York

The best value hand roll spot without sacrificing quality. They have a lunch special for 4 hand rolls that you can customize, and it comes with miso soup, all for $26, $28 if you get it with the yuba udon option. I got the shrimp tempura, snow crab, vegan beef, and spicy crunchy tuna. The shrimp tempura roll was average, but the other 3 were amazing, my top being the tuna roll. The miso soup was also so good! Service was great, my server paid attention to when I'd finish my current roll before starting to prep my next roll. The yuba udon was also delicious. The interior was very chic, lots of seating available at the bar area. I will definitely be coming back here read more

Handroll Bar Rolling - Shrimp Tempura Roll - Japanese Near Me - New York, New York

My husband and I did walk-in at 4:30 on a Friday night and we were the only customer, granted it was 4:30. I did look at Resy the day prior and they have reservations available every 15 minutes so I knew walking in wouldn't be a problem. The decor was modern and cute. Upon walking in, we were warm greet with a smile and had the options of counter or table. If you choose counter, rolls come in a Handroll format. If you choose table, the rolls come in a temaki format, like a taco. We opted for counter so the rolls are served one by one. We got the 7 rolls set, 2 salmon avocado roll and yuba udon (fried tofu). The fish tasted fresh but the rice lacked flavor. To the point where my husband, who rarely uses wasabi and soy sauce, had to use it to give the rolls a little flavor. read more

Restaurant was incredibly clean Sitting at the bar is never my choice but we chose this and got to watch our rolls being prepped and cut. The sushi was so fresh with each element packing vibrant, natural flavor Every ingredient and sauce just had that edge above most places we've tried We were there for an early dinner and they served the food as if we were a high spending dinner table; a lot of restaurants cut corners on off peak days or times to save a dollar but not here! The service was so kind and attentive without rushing us or being intrusive; they offered a nice balance of the formality of a sushi spot while being warm read more

Tbh, I was debating between this handroll spot and the one in Chelsea called kazunori. After waiting on the line at the other place, I decided to go here since there were seats and no line. I really needed to use a restroom too which was key. From the moment you walk inside the service was great and everything was very clean. Even the restroom was clean and the bidet inside of it was nice. This place is perfect for solo diners as I saw others by themselves as well. Regarding the food, I decided on getting the five handroll set. The different handrolls that I decided on were: the scallop, yellowtail, crab, spicy salmon, and tuna set. I also ordered the yuba udon which is fried tofu. I really wanted a soup and noodles were a plus. Everything was fresh but portion sized I still wanted more fish and rolls. The ambiance and food were good, but the portion size and price point wasn't that great. read more

Absolutely freshest hand rolls. Great service -- attentive without being pushy. Loved it.

we got the lunch set, which was $28 a person (if i remember correctly) and came with 4 handrolls and a small bowl of udon. their shochu highball is $13 regularly and they have good happy hour deals as well. overall, good for the price, nothing crazy fancy but nice service and vibe. read more

Decent enough hand roll restaurant. We went for the lunch special, which was decently priced (4 hand rolls and a small udon for about $30), but we were the only lone customers the entire time, which was rather eerie. The hand rolls were just so-so; the fish seemed fresh and they don't skimp on portions, but my biggest complaint was that they overused seaweed. It was rather tough to eat the hand rolls due to that, and while the seaweed wasn't stale or anything, it was almost chewy, making for a rather unpleasant experience. The staff were helpful but quiet, so combined with the fact that we were the only customers, the entire atmosphere was a little odd. read more

I saw a deal for their lunch special, so my friend and I came here for a Friday lunch. This includes 4 handrolls and a yuba udon for $28. The handrolls included tuna, spicy salmon, yellowtail, and crab. The portions are a bit small and didn't filly fill up the seaweed, but it was still good. The fish are freshly minced up for an easy bite although I know many complain that the crab is shredded imitation crab (but not a big deal for me). I like that the combo comes with the udon, which helps make you full. The udon is silky and broth is heartwarming and clean, especially on a cold day. The entire meal wasn't anything too special, but it's a pretty good lunch deal when you're in the area if you're not looking for something more than just handrolls. I thought the personal mini soy sauces were adorable and loved all the dinnerware. Note: if you want to get your handrolls altogether and presentedly nicely, get a table. Otherwise, you're served the rolls rolled up one by one at the counter. read more

Came on a Saturday around opening time and we were sat right away! Our group of 3 all got the same thing, the 6 piece lunch set with the udon soup. It was super well priced with large portions and the fish was fresh! Our waitress was also super friendly and kept refilling our drinks for us and never made us feel rushed to pay or finish despite us yapping for a while! read more

I've been here twice now and usually show up around 2-3pm when there are not many people around. I was surprised to see they have lunch specials! Both times I've been here I've had such great experiences. All of the hand rolls are delicious. My favorites are the scallop, crab, salmon. Their soup and noodles are really good too. The portions are perfect. The service is always great and everyone is kind and professional. Love the ambiance it's quiet every time I go there. It's super clean, bright inside, spacious. I look forward to coming back read more

You know it's good and legit Japanese when there's barely a sign and the sushi bar takes up 90% of the restaurant space. The best beef udon I have ever had, best yuzu tea (with a pile of delicious stewed yuzu zest in the bottom as a treat at the end)! Will be back! read more

Craving for sushi for lunch and stopped by to try the lunch special. 4 hand rolls and a yuba udon for less than $30. Had the tuna, yellow tail, crab and spicy salmon. The hand rolls are fresh and fixed the cravings. It wasn't busy on a Thursday around noon. Overall 4.5/5. read more

Vibe was very casual and service was great. I'll definitely be back when I'm craving handrolls! read more

Quite possibly the worst handroll spot I have been to in the city in terms of fish quality. Service was fast, but the restaurant was also pretty empty on a Thursday night. They don't take reservations but should be pretty easy to walk in. I got the 4 handroll set and glad I did not get more. The fatty tuna was really not super fresh, and tasted like it was from the freezer. The crab was also imitation crab meat and quite spicy. Salmon was okay but flavorless, and the yellowtail was good (not excellent, but good enough r to be the redeeming fish of the meal). The ginger on the side is also not very fresh at all, which is a reflection of the quality of the fish. read more

Very average -- not bad, but honestly tasted like something I could make myself with a quick H Mart run. I got the 6-piece hand roll set, and the seaweed didn't have that Kazunori-level crunch; it was a bit soggy for my liking. They did give us complimentary miso soup, which was nice. Overall, it's a pretty basic spot and there are definitely better hand roll options in the city. read more

Walked into this place on a whim. i don't like noodles. or raw fish. this place was pretty cool. The staff was attentive and warm and i appreciate that they didn't laugh at me when i asked if the crab hand roll had raw crab. Thankfully it didn't, so i tried it, and i enjoyed it. sushi / crab cake vibes. the scallop hand roll was also great. The bbq-type flavor (idk what the flavor was) of the stir fry noodles was really pleasant. udon soup also decent. very light flavored soup read more

Right near Koreatown with no wait is a solid option - if you encounter the wild line at Kazunori, head over here to have a much calmer, elevated experience. We were able to walk in on a Sunday right in time to miss a thunderstorm and was able to be seated at the bar seating promptly. You can order via the paper slip with a set or a la carte. The service is good, my waitress was very sweet and patient. The overall decor is plush, gold, marble, lovely lightly and so elegant. The music doesn't match 100% and one loud pair of girls were speaking over everyone very audibly but once they left, the setting was peaceful. My favorite standout was the spicy salmon, as was my friends. It had a great flavor and actually a little spicy. I was looking for ward so much to the scallop but they added a lot of black pepper and also crunch which to me totally overpowers the scallop - I was so sad. The yellowtail and toro were good, nothing to complain about. The rice was decent, not like the warm rice elsewhere but good. Definitely worth trying - good date spot, I didn't feel rushed to leave at all! read more

Took a girl on a first date here from Hinge. The atmosphere was nice and the service was good. The sushi itself was good but I found it a bit odd that the nori (seaweed) was still in the plastic. Kinda made it awkward to eat, and I had a lil trouble constructing it as well as my date. Sushi was fresh and tasty. My date went well as we were able to talk about the plastic wrapper being cumbersome. I guess I should have known about this from the pic but it's not something you think about. read more

3.5/5 stars 6 rolls for $36 Me and two friends were able to get seated at the bar around 7:30 on a Wednesday night. They do not take reservations. It was packed and service was kind of slow. We had to flag down a waitress for water. And the chef forgot one hand roll for one of our friends. Our collective favorites were the scallop, yellowtail and toro. The last roll -spicy tuna- was super spicy we all choked and had to down water. Spicy but GOOD. Don't feel like any of the rolls were super amazing but would maybe return in the future when the hype dies down. Upon leaving we wanted to use the restroom and wash our hands but their bathroom was flooded. I really hope they fix it soon because upon entering with no signage of "out of order" we all lost our appetite seeing that flood and overflowing toilet. read more

After a long day of shopping in Midtown, I was starving and craving handrolls. A quick Google search led me to Handroll Bar Rolling, and I'm so glad it did! We started with edamame--hot, nicely salted, and super satisfying. Then we tried their fried Purple Okinawa Sweet Potato, which was light and crispy with a mayo dip that wasn't too heavy. It was a great little appetizer. The Chicken Karaage was another winner, perfectly fried and super crunchy, and the shrimp tempura was light and paired with a tasty aioli. Since they're famous for their handrolls, we had to try them. We ordered the Signature 6 Handroll Set (Tuna, Salmon, Yellowtail, Scallop, Crab, and Crunch Spicy Tuna) and the 5 Vegan Set (Cucumber, Avocado, Soybean Beef, Burdock, and Mushroom). Everything was fresh and rolled to order, with crispy nori and flavorful fillings. The highlight for me was the fried Ebi Potato--crispy, light, and packed with flavor. We also tried the udon soup noodles. I had the Beef Udon, and the noodles had the perfect chewy texture. My mom got the Shrimp Tempura Udon, and I really appreciated that they served the tempura on the side so it stayed crispy instead of getting soggy in the broth. We sat at a table instead of the counter, which made it easier for my family to share everything. The service was attentive and friendly without being over the top. For drinks, we tried the Yuzu Highball, which had just enough alcohol to give me a buzz. So refreshing! Overall, this place is a gem. The food is delicious, the service is great, and the vibe is casual but still feels special. If you're in Midtown and looking for a good dinner spot, definitely check it out! read more

The ambience was great, with plenty of seating. We did not struggle to find a table for Friday lunch for a group of three. The decor was modern and suited the place well. Service was friendly and efficient. I think the food is really good value, and you get a decent amount for the lunch special. I don't think it would have been worth it at full price. Everything pictured in my review was part of the $28 lunch deal, excluding tip. The rolls are served all at once rather than one by one, and there is a plastic wrap for hygiene on the rolls which can be slightly fiddly. The rolls are also on the smaller side. I don't really enjoy spice so I substituted the spicy salmon for use regular salmon, and it ended up being my favourite roll. The udon was slightly over cooked so that the noodles were softer than I liked, but it paired nicely with the rolls. I wouldn't say that the food was exceptional, but it was pretty solid. read more
