    It used to be great place. We was visiting it for over a year.. Sushi is fresh taste good. Today we visited this restaurant in Astoria. And was really disappointed.. first of all it was really hot inside the restaurant. I asked to turn on the conditioning, but there was economizing and refused it. They just opened the door.. also bring out the fan. It was not helpful.. when the waitress brought the food, she spilled the sauce on the table instead of cleaning it up she just covered it with a napkin. When we finish eating, it was a lot of dirty dishes. She didn't pick up.. and brought me a check. I take out the credit card and wanted to pay waitress. Told me if you're going to use. The credit card is gonna be 4% more.. this is a really strange . Policy . She mentioned this is a new policy.. for me it sounds like a scam. We're not coming back there ever again..

    Lunch special-Any 3 Rolls Lunch: white tuna scallion, eel avocado, salmon cucumber

    This spot is good for sushi rolls and sashimi if you're not looking for anything too fancy. I have dined in and ordered takeout from here and the food was good every time. Their lover's boat is generous portion-wise and the rolls were very tasty. The miso soup, sadly, is subpar. I was also a bit put off by the fact that when I went there last week, the price on the menu was outdated, so I was charged more for my meal than I was expecting, which was an unpleasant surprise.

    My order

    Once again I ate my food without taking a photo, I hate it lol. I remember after. Attached is a photo of my order. I got two different rolls. I ordered through Grubhub. I crossed out all the personal info. My first roll was the king crab roll. They were wrapped small so I didn't get a lot of the crab taste from it but I still thought it really good. The roll was shaped nicely and clean. My second roll was the salmon tempura roll and what a mess. The roll was huge and kept falling apart. It's like no effort was made in wrapping it and making it look nice. On the other hand it tasted delicious. Probably wouldn't order this specific roll again, but it tasted good. If you ask me would I order again from here YES, but I'd search Yelp for photos next time. I've had worse sushi so would definitely try this place again

    a plate of sushi and a bowl of sauce
    Michael S.

    Been trying to find a good local sushi spot and came across this place on Grubhub. Looked promising and prices weren't too crazy. Long story short, the taste is not bad and loved that they used real crab but the size and quantity is so small. It's comparable to a chain supermarket sushi pack just more expensive and less pieces. Not to mention they made one of the sushi's wrong. A bit disappointing. I would try them again though based on the fact that the taste was decent and I didn't get sick the next day. (Sushi looks much bigger in the pictures)

    Seared Tuna Salad

    A dependable option for sushi in the neighborhood, have always enjoyed anything we've gotten from here. The Astoria Roll is a new favorite, as well as the salmon dumplings. Will have the tuna dumplings next. Unique and delicious, it has avocado, scallion and crunch inside and is served with a wasabi vinaigrette sauce (not spicy). The seared tuna salad was an interesting texture bc it's seared, would have enjoyed more if raw, it was made better by the salad and dressing that comes with it. The blue crab summer roll was a little underwhelming, the sundried tomato was interesting to try but wasn't for us. Service was good, friendly. There are only a few tables inside.

    This place is down the street from me and that is very dangerous (because I will keep spending all my money on sushi). They have Delicious, fresh, sushi and a great lunch special. The six flag roll is to die for!

    A fly on the sushi
    Gabriella S.

    If I could give this place 0 stars I would. Ordered sushi from here and there was a fly walking around on top of the sushi while the container was still closed. After seeing the fly. We refused to eat the meal. We Called the restaurant and they said they said they can only refund the sushi not the whole meal. The lady was rude and said you can just eat the miso soup, then hung up didn't even apologize. After seeing the fly we don't trust eating the rest of the meal. This is unsanitary and unacceptable. Especially when they, serve literal raw fish. Do not eat here. Literally DISGUSTED

    A little better than my first visit. Junko has greatly improved service and quality of food choices. Though it is best known for its vegetarian dishes, this sushi restaurant has a decent chicken teriyaki. I might be back.

    This place is the best. It has amazing stuff and people and my family is close with the owner. They are friendly welcoming and good people. The food is always so amazing I recommend 10/10. Best experience going there. There delivery is also amazing and food still is great.

    Ordered take out from here and I was pleasantly surprised. They have great quality dishes and their sushi tastes amazing! They also use real crab in their rolls which is a huge plus. Will definitely be my new go-to for sushi!

Was walking in the area with my mom and passed by on the way to a bakery, but good thing we turned back. One of the staff members opened the door for us. It's wheelchair accessible. Attentive and helpful staff. Great first impression of the place - garden decor, chandeliers/ambient lighting. Got the Creme Anglaise souffle pancakes - with fresh fruits, very light and fluffy, not too sweet. Ice cream sounded simple on the menu - though just a small scoop, it came with red bean paste, fresh fruits so not bad @$6. Rose latte is rosy of course with crushed petals.

The soufflé pancake was unfortunately quite mushy, without much of a bite to it. The salmon was fresh but the cuts were on the thinner side, so it was decent but nothing extraordinary. The aesthetics look nice and welcoming, but the service was more cold and distanced; would definitely improve the mood if the servers were more social and friendly! Our server forgot one of our drinks, and didn't ask if we wanted our lattes sweetened or not, so we asked for simple syrup to sweeten our drinks ourselves. To our surprise, we were charged for simple syrup as shown on the receipt as a custom item...never have I been to any restaurant or cafes where you had to pay to sweeten your own drink. Unfortunately, this cheapened the experience and made it feel like you're being nickeled and dimed by a pretty restaurant. Not sure if this is the restaurant's/owner's rules or just the server being incompetent/not efficiently trained. We dined at 2pm on September 9th, 2026, as to not get other servers in trouble! Overall, Vert Frais definitely has a lot of potential of being an amazing Japanese brunch spot, so I hope this review can help them reach their truest potential! Thank you for reading and best of luck! (:

Dashi Okume dates back to…read more1871 in Japan (it was originally established as a seafood wholesaler), but this shop in Greenpoint makes quality Japanese products, especially dashi, more accessible than ever. Dashi Okume sells ... you guessed it ... dashi. They sell several kinds, and you can taste all of them there in the shop before deciding which to take home with you (I tried them all and went home with one bag of vegetable dashi and one bag of sweet shellfish dashi). They also make custom-made dashi. You can choose from around 30 ingredients - dried fish, seaweed, mushrooms, and vegetables. They grind it up and put into individual bags for you. Such a fun idea, but I thought I should try some of their pre-made dashi options before creating mine own. They also sell miso, rice, noodles, rice seasoning, seaweed, tea, and other items. I picked up some Japanese mustard, seaweed, and rice seasoning to take home with my dashi. Beyond being a great shop, they also have a cafe area where they offer a teishoku set meal - you pick your fish, which comes with tea, rice, miso soup, pickles, and sides. They also offer an omakase popup. The shop is beautiful, and the service was very friendly and helpful. I'll certainly return for more shopping but next time I plan to make a meal of it and try their teishoku set.

They had all of their original dashis out to taste, then they had a section where you could make your own. It was great getting to taste them and see what you liked so you could build around that. My boyfriend was the one making the dashi, so I perused the fun goods while he built his base. The dashi does take some time to make, so you can select your blend, then leave for a while and come back later.

    Cuisine: 6 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 6 Overall: 6 I have to preface that, if I had reviewed Hibino in the past, they likely would have received 4 stars. Unfortunately, my latest experience was such a letdown that I have to average that into this review. My usual order here over 10+ years has always been their Kaisen Don, which had some of the better quality sushi rice available in Queens. If you don't think sushi rice is important, then skip my review. If you do, then know that my preference is slight warm rice that does not clump together, with a nice touch of vinegar. Hibino seems to get this part right regularly, but not this past Sunday. It was cold, clumpy, and super light on seasoning. Furthermore, as soon as the bowl arrived, I was a bit skeptical since it's not the usual square box filled with premium goodies. Instead, it was a smaller round bowl with relatively common pieces of sashimi. In the past, there were toro, ikura, uni and scallop, but none were present on Sunday. The only premium pieces I received was the spotted prawn. The rest were salmon, yellowtail, bluefin tuna, sea bass, and arctic char. More importantly, some of the sashimi pieces were somewhat mushy and slightly fishy, not the best quality. On the other hand, we also ordered their Chirashi, which had seared toro, yellowfin tuna, salmon belly, yellowtail belly, shrimp, and flying fish roe. Between the proteins and rice is a layer of shredder egg. Sadly, rice was still cold and lacked flavor, but the egg did help a bit. Though I prefer the thin slices of sashimi in the Kaisen Don over the chunky pieces of fish in the Chirashi, I did prefer the latter on that day. Bottom line, I will give them another chance, but the downgrade on the quality of rice and premium seafood in the Kaisen Don was a major disappointment. Praying my next visit restores my faith in the restaurant.
