BLUF: A decent neighborhood restaurant. We visited Hayashi for a quick lunch. Food: OK (3 out of 5 stars) - Sushi Lunch: $15 ($16.33 with tax). Five pieces of nigiri and six California roll pieces. The raw fish was acceptably fresh and presented at the right temperature, but could have been tighter. - Salmon Teriyaki Lunch Bento: $14 ($15.24 with tax). The salmon was slightly overcooked, and the teriyaki sauce was slightly watered down. Service: Good (4 out of 5 stars) Hayashi offers complimentary tea. The staff regularly checked on how we were doing and refilled our tea. Atmosphere and Other: - Seating was comfortable, though the restaurant was more dimly-lit than I would have liked. - There is one well-maintained unisex restroom. - Parking in front of the restaurant is metered, but it is easy to find residential parking nearby.

Stopped by and ordered the 2 roll lunch special it came with a nice small salad with ginger dressing and the presentation of the 2 rolls was very appetizing... the lunch was delicious and the restaurant was nicely decorated and the service was excellent...

Great lunch special. Ordered 3 rolls and all of them were packed with fish, very little rice, just the way I like it. Everything is super fresh too. Give hayashi a try!

I hate to make decent neighborhood restaurants seems pedestrian or ordinary, in a bad way, but Hayashi is your typical run of the mill 50% off/inexpensive sushi restaurant .... and it was good. My wife and I dropped in for lunch on a Saturday afternoon and were seated immediately. As expected at the time of the day, the restaurant wasn't crowded, but did have a few parties inside. The menu was pretty straightforward and typical for a local sushi restaurant. There were plenty of appetizers, sushi rolls, special rolls, sushi and specials to choose from. Since it was still lunch time, we went for the lunch special of getting 3 rolls for $9, which is a "good" deal these days. It also came with a miso soup or salad, which we both went with the soup. We were tempted by the $10 lunch box specials, but we were just cravvving sushi. We ended ordering pretty common rolls, such as, eel avocado, spicy tuna, spicy yellowtail, etc. I ordered regular cut rolls, while she ordered 3 hand rolls. To sum it up, it was allll good. No complaints as the sushi was delicious. We do have 1 observation though, and that is, it seemed that the hand rolls actually had much more stuffing other than rice, while the cut rolls obviously had more rice. So keep that in mind when deciding what type of roll you want. The service was spot on and fast throughout our meal. The waitresses were always on top, maybe a bit too eager, to fill our tea cups whenever they were a bit depleted, but everything else was perfect. Another winner of a sushi spot in Sheepshead Bay, but you won't be blown away by any of the food that will make you want to come here more than others.

This restaurant has very affordable sushi rolls! I've gotten take out several times during this pandemic and its been quick and easy to order and pick up food. They have great customer service and their rolls are always well prepared.

One is missing because I HAD to try it. Salmon Avocado Roll; Spicy California Roll, Mango Roll.

I was craving Sushi and read the fantastic reviews about this place. I placed my order for a Spicy California Roll, a Salmon Avocado Roll and a Mango Roll. I placed the order through Yelp. The food arrived earlier than scheduled. The rolls are super fresh! I'm definitely going to be ordering from this spot again. Contactless delivery too! Love it.

They have a large menu with so many choices. Everything is always fresh and delicious. One of my favorite sushi places in Brooklyn.

Was in the mood for sushi so I wanted to try out the sushi they had here for lunch. Tiny restaurant with some available street parking if you look hard enough. It was not too busy when I came into the store to order the rolls, but I thought it was a good idea to call beforehand to speed up the process and just pick up the food. The prices of the rolls range from $2 to $4, which is pretty standard. I took the sushi home and plated it on a dish to simulate that restaurant experience from home. I ordered some spicy salmon, eel avocado, and tuna avocado, and they all tasted delicious and fresh. I would also try the spicy tuna, Philadelphia or the Hayashi roll on my next visit, as I was recommended these from my friends. Highly recommended cheap sushi spot in Sheepshead Bay!

Best sushi in south Brooklyn hands down. I've tried many places for eat in and delivery. The sushi is not too fishy and does not smell old. Here are some things you should definitely get when you visit or order. The consistency between eating in and ordering is the same. Salads - Seafood ceviche salad - Seared tuna salad - Kani salad Appetizers - Spicy tuna wasabi crackers - rock shrimp Sushi - Spicy Tuna roll- fresh and no fishy smell or taste - Yellowtail pieces rolls - Spicy cooked scallop roll - Hayashi Roll- very different and in square pieces layered with different fish, avocado and tobiko - Tri color roll- amazing - Any roll honestly

So so best describes my order today. I ordered sushi. Sweet potato roll was kind of saggy. Mango specialty roll was not tasty either.

My favorite sushi spot in the area! Super affordable and delicious, and they have yet to mess up my…read moreorders. I love ordering party trays from here because of their expansive options and how affordable they are compared to most of the other sushi spots in NYC these days. If you're planning to place a large order, I recommend ordering at least 30min to 1 hour beforehand on the weekends as they can get backed up with tons of orders and have a very small store front.

Okay so Happy Canteen is basically my "I'm hungry and I don't feel like overthinking it" spot. The…read moreprices are really good (like... shockingly reasonable sometimes), and they do NOT play around with portions. You order one thing and it shows up like you accidentally ordered for two people. Food-wise, it's fresh and solid. Not fancy, not trying to be some cute Brooklyn "concept," it's just good everyday food that actually tastes like it was made right. I've never had anything that blew my mind, but I also haven't had anything disappointing either, which honestly is kind of the dream for a regular go-to place. Service is usually pretty quick and friendly. It's not like white-glove or super warm and fuzzy, but they're nice, they hustle, and you're not sitting there forever wondering if they forgot you. And the vibe inside is exactly what you'd expect, simple, chill, nothing "wow" about the ambiance, but it's clean and totally fine. It feels more like a takeout spot than a place you're going to hang out for two hours. Overall... great value, lots of food, solid and fresh, perfect for everyday.
