Junko Sushi - Angel Roll!! - Japanese Near Me - Astoria, New York

Ate here today for lunch before working as a temporary summer substitute paraprofessional at P.S. 166 Q. I had brought and ate the sashimi lunch special and it had tasted pretty good and delicious. The service there was also attentive and super fast. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time. read more

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.. read more

Yum I always get the tempura veggies, miso soup and sushi very good I've ordered from here twice . And will order again.

Oy, I ordered for two. F-ing old sushi. I threw it right out! This place is simply terrible. Terrible! read more

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 I was also a bit put off by the fact that when I went there last week, the price on the menu was outdated, so I was charged more for my meal than I was expecting, which was an unpleasant surprise. read more

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 read more

Junko Sushi - My order - Japanese Near Me - Astoria, New York

Junko has been slinging sushi in Astoria long enough to become a household name in the neighborhood. While they aren't among the wave of fancier Japanese places offering omakases and paired experiences, they are of the sushi spots that are ideal for easy, affordable sushi. Pandemic wise, they've been really good with the take out and delivery. The sushi isn't going to impress everyone, but it's the kind of quick meal option that would satisfy folks on the go. They are pretty solid with the party platters, which are plentiful and on point with the presentation. I think I can also get behind their rice-to-fish ratio, where nothing is too heavy and ideal for folks who can eat a lot. (#1) When in doubt, shoot for the sushi boat. For roll lovers, this place really packs on the fish. For me, they seem more plump than the usual takeout sushi spot, which is always a good thing. All the Americanized classics are here: dragon roll, rainbow roll, etc. Their spicy tuna tempura roll is a nice Junko-foody choice and the lover's roll confuses me with the hearts shaped pieces. Where things have been less stellar have been by way of their hot food items and random sushi miscues that happen occasionally. The miso is a bit on the meh-side, the cooked teriyaki salmon was dry and bland, and shumai and gyoza are pretty subpar. I'm not particularly fond of the bento boxes either or the grilled squid, but the beef negimaki takes the cake for them all for lease appealing item.. The people who run the place are nice. Most folks who have only ever ordered delivery might not realize this is actually a pretty solid place to dine in. Be it a solo meal or a casual date, it's a decent option that is sufficient enough for the average sushi lover. ___________ (#1) Which includes yours truly. read more

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. read more

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) read more

Junko Sushi - a plate of sushi and a bowl of sauce - Japanese Near Me - Astoria, New York

Call it what it is...This is a Chinese fast food place Cos-playing as a Sushi restaurant. Their California roll tasted as if had been rolled for about an hour that when I got it it was warm, Yuk! This place does not know how to make sushi. There is a very delicate art to making good sushi and it starts with having fresh fish, ingredients and a knowledgable sushi chef. This place lacks all three. It is very clear to me that this place is only interested at making money by ripping off customers with its fake cheap sushi. read more

Sushi is VERY good. Sometimes I'm not sure if I'm not being clear when I ask for SIMPLE EEL SAUCE on the side, or they aren't listening and it ends up being extra soy or a eel sauce with an additional sauce. Employees are always kind. So, I'll just have to VISUALLY inspect the "extra" eel sauce I order. I do recommend them. read more

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! read more

Junko Sushi - Six Flags Roll - Japanese Near Me - Astoria, New York

Amazing experience! I was in the scenic Pearl boardwalk area and saw Junko. I heard the restaurant was authentic and imported the ingredients from Japan and the owner Junko-San often prepared the meals so I thought I would try the sushi, sashimi, and shrimp tempura. it was perfect! Everything was prepared by Junko-San and her sous-chef and came out perfect and in a timely manner. The great vibe of the Pearl boardwalk area combined with the authentic feal of the restaurant made for a great time with good vibes! 順子さん、素晴らしい食事体験をしていただき、また、私に挨拶して日本語の練習をさせていただき、ありがとうございました！あなたは女王です！ Junko-san, subarashī shokuji taiken o shite itadaki, mata, watashi ni aisatsu shite nihongo no renshū o sa sete itadaki, arigatōgozaimashita!

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 read more

I've ordered delivery from this place a couple of times. The food is decent, nothing spectacular. The edamame was fresh and the Alaska roll was tasty, but I was disappointed with the calamari and rock shrimp tempura. The fried foods had absolutely no flavor and the texture of the calamari was rubbery. The first time I ordered they forgot to put the sauces in the bag, but today they put in extra (maybe they received complaints from other diners?). The delivery was exceptionally fast and the driver was pleasant. I have never dined in the restaurant, so I can't speak to the ambiance of the place. I might order from them again in the future, but I would steer clear of anything fried and stick to sushi. read more

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! read more

I've had much better .... Went for lunch, got the Teriyaki salmon lunch special ..other than the presentation there wasn't anything great about it . The California roll had imitation crab meat that I had to pick out .... The salmon was heavy in sauce but very bland with no seasoning on it ... The rice was coarser than am use to and the vegetable and dumplings was Probably the part of the meal . read more

Very good. I have never dined in. I usually order pick up. The food quality is very good. I always get one of the same three rolls. Sometimes, I order the same type of rolls for lunch in midtown when I am in the office, but Junko's order is way better. read more

Best chicken teriyaki! Fresh veggies and chicken every time. We think best in astoria !!

Well. Here we are. The moment we're all been waiting for. My first Yelp review in a year and a half. So many things have brought me to this moment. I have so many people to thank. There were so many contenders for this exclusive honor of being my first Yelp review after my "hiatus". After careful deliberation...... Junko is the winner. Junko's sushi is made with the fluffiest rice known to man. Their rolls are larger than your typical sushi roll. Everything I've ever had here has been amazing. I consider myself an expert on sweet potato sushi, and Junko does it right. Most places unfortunately use stale, cold sweet potato that you can tell has been sitting on the counter for hours because most people don't tend to order sweet potato sushi... but Junko's is ALWAYS WARM. They have yet to let me down. They also have a lot of other vegetarian options which I always appreciate. I have dined in at Junko, but I usually order take out. The restaurant itself is nice and clean, but it's small and nothing special. What deserves special mention is the fact that whenever I order from Junko, it arrives in an alarmingly quick amount of time. I timed it once and it was 7 minutes. I don't live that close, I'm like two avenues away. It's WITCH CRAFT. In conclusion, Junko is everything I've ever wanted in a sushi restaurant and more. Well done, you will see my order pop up on Grubhub for many more days to come. read more

Super fast delivery service. Good sushi. Had the spicy tuna roll, salmon jalapeño roll and the dancing shrimp roll, all were good. Recommended. read more

Ordered food from grubhub. Never arrived. Called restaurant for update and they never pick up the phone. Google and yelp days they're open but grubhub says they're closed. Would give them a 0 if i could read more

I've been meaning to post this for a while but I finally said enough is enough so I have to rave about how amazing Junko sushi is. Their sushi is excellent and is a constant for our Friday Nights since mid 2020. Alan and his staff are so nice when we pick up our food and their delivery is always on time. Definitely give Junko a look if you haven't tried it. read more

I order from here at least twice a week. Love the lunch specials because it's quality at a great price. Haven't had any problems either. The fried rice is great, not too greasy and tastes amazing. Sushi is tasty too. I haven't been disappointed with anything I've ordered. Hot food or sushi related are both great tasting, which sometimes it's a coin toss with other places--either they do one or the other well not both. Deliveries always come on time or faster, but usually faster. Definitely a go-to. read more

Really expansive sushi and maki selections! Delicious and fresh. Speedy delivery too! Definitely ordering from them again soon.

This is my second coming here since I've moved into the area. Probably one of the best tasting Kani salads I've had is from here - they add scallion and chives to it and Um, yeah, it totally transforms it! The sushi is tasty and good quality. Fast and attentive service as well. Claiming this as my sushi spotz read more

Junko sushi has been my go to sushi place in Astoria for sometime now. I normally order on Grubhub occasionally dined her. I'm a bit of a regular. I like to dine there by myself it's quiet and has such a relaxing vibe to it always. The food is decent. I've had the Chilean sea bass spring roll before and it was great. I recommend going for lunch time they have a special 2 rolls for $8.95 of 3 rolls for $11.95. Side note: they have really good plum wine. read more

I've eaten sushi from all over & the quality (freshness) of the fish here is amazing! I got to talk with the manager and she was telling me how everyday they pick out the tuna they'll be using for that day. I love ordering their avocado salad, the dressing is superb! Never thought something as simple as salad dressing could be so delicious. The location is also perfect, one could do their errands and eat great sushi easily. I was surprised that the prices for the food is what it is considering the food is amazing. This is my favorite place to get sushi, I never go anywhere else. Junko Sushi currently has an A grade-rating! Do yourself a favor & try this place out, it's worth it. read more

Junko Sushi - Huge platter of sushi, so delicious. - Japanese Near Me - Astoria, New York

garbage---you can tell the fish was previously frozen and they do no more than cut it up and put in on rice. Where's the flavor? This fish has not been handled by a sushi chef who prepares and seasons it before using razor sharp knive to slice it in ways that optimizes flavor and tenderness--this fish is just chopped up into sushi sized pieces, slapped onto some rice and delivered. No flavor at all except for a slight fishiness and metalic flavor from it not being the freshest fish. anyway--yes, eek, methings not ever again. Update--I anticipated a response from the owner/management but really not this quickly. Albeit nice to hear a response, I hope that they simply improve their food with some better quality fish, and maybe find a chef that has some experience. I suppose I will add a couple stars as Junko was inexpensive and it was extremely fast delivery. There--that's what happens when management kindly responds to an unfavorable review. Thanks, Junko, for being classy at the very least. read more

I've ordered from here twice and had great meals both times. I don't love how crunch is added to most of their rolls but they have wonderful sashimi and the crab Rangoon is some of the best Ive ever had! read more

Disgusting food and rude customer service Please avoid this place at all cost! I should have read these negative reviews before ordering from here. I never complain about my food, but this place was by far the worst sushi I have ever had. My sushi came hot, and the fish tasted like they were left in a broken fridge. The rolls were all disassembled and swimming in a watery sauce. The tempura was extremely soggy. I call for a refund and was prompted to retrieve the disgusting food from the trash bin by hand. I then received a rude call from the owner yelling at me for not picking up all the food (at 10PM cleaning a toddler who threw up this food) and refusing any compensation. Please save yourself time and money and order from any other place. Update 1: I did contact Junko first, and I explained that it was already in the tall trash bin outside. Retrieving the food was humiliating. Retreiving the food at 10pm in the dark, and only to get a laugh from you on the phone does not really help the situation. Seamless was kind enough to offer me $15 back. I would not hold my breath for another chance to "service better". Update 2: Yelp deleted this as an updated review, but people should know since it is dangerous. Removed Content: Read a news article and this restaurant had been closed down for health violations. The owner obviously has turns a blind eye to his business and fails to recognize this shortcomings when being called out. Sanitary Violations 1) Hot food item not held at or above 140º F. 2) Cold food item held above 41º F (smoked fish and reduced oxygen packaged foods above 38 ºF) except during necessary preparation. 3) Evidence of rats or live rats present in facility's food and/or non-food areas. 4) Evidence of mice or live mice present in facility's food and/or non-food areas. 5) Food contact surface not properly washed, rinsed and sanitized after each use and following any activity when contamination may have occurred. 6) Facility not vermin proof.

Although I don't find myself in Astoria too often, my friend lives here so I turned to him for Sushi recommendations. I wanted to grab a quick bite to eat before a Yelp event and we found ourselves at Junko! Right on the corner along Broadway, it's a place you cannot miss. I ordered the Shrimp Tempura roll and the Philadelphia Roll. They came out fairly quickly but were patient with us since this was a "catching up" kind of dinner. It was pretty empty with the exception of two couples. Overall, my sushi was delicious. The tempura was crunchy and not soggy. And the Philly roll, classic. The inside was clean and they even opened up the doors/windows to let the fresh air in which was nice. And the staff were very friendly. If I am ever in the area again, I'll definitely be back! read more
