Kirazu is truly a hidden gem! The food is consistently delicious, the service is exceptional, and the atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and relaxing! It's one of those places where you can unwind, enjoy an amazing meal, and genuinely feel right at home. Bobby and Ana are absolutely fabulous! Their hospitality is second to none, and the chefs consistently deliver incredible dishes. Everything is always on point! It's a cozy, intimate spot with limited seating, so I definitely recommend arriving early. But trust me, even if there's a wait, it's absolutely worth it! The quality of the food, the personal attention, and the overall experience are what make this place so special. An absolute favorite that I can't recommend highly enough! read more

Amazing little spot that we were lucky enough to happen upon when we were shopping nearby. Family owned and warm friendly vibe-food was awesome-I could feel the love-we had the sushi pizza, the Bruce Roll and the Triple J Roll-we also had hot sake and that was perfect for two hungry people. read more

Only a 2 minute experience in the restaurant but i wantb to go back! My daughter is on a new kick of trying new things and decided to have a cucumber roll. Seems like it would be easy to find in this neighborhood but it wasn't. We ended up here during a lunch time special and I was able to order straight through Yelp. When I got there 10 minutes later everything was already waiting. The space is small but perfect for what it is and the workers were extremely kind and helpful.. I can't wait to go back again and try some other items. My little girl who is extremely picky loved her cucumber roll and ate 5 pieces on her own! This is a massive win for us which means that they had a great product! read more

Moved into the neighborhood and we absolutely love this place. Anna is amazing and the restaurant is so lucky to have her. The food is fantastic. Service is the kindest that we've experienced. Ambience is super chill straight down to the music bar seating and the hospitality. There's so many pictures of all the sushi to order. Prices are very reasonable and sushi is very fresh. I cannot recommend this place enough. We'll definitely be back multiple times!! read more

Really nice mom & pop type of restaurant. The host was really attentive and friendly. She answered all the questions I had about the different sushi's. It's dimly lit in there so it's a vibe. I was served a complimentary sake shot (which does not influence this review) and a glass a water even though I was there for take out, I appreciated that! The sushi sandwich was a 10/10, the flavors blew my mind. I would order the sushi sandwich 100x over. The BnM roll I wasn't necessarily a fan of because it wasn't as filling as I thought it would be. I wish there was way more crab meat in it. It was delicious nonetheless. Would 100% return again. read more

We had such a great experience here and will absolutely be back. From the moment we walked in, the owner was incredibly kind and welcoming, which really sets the tone for the whole meal. You can tell he truly cares about his customers and the food he serves. The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Everything tasted high quality, from the fish to the rice, and each roll was well balanced and delicious. We ordered a variety and honestly enjoyed every single thing -- nothing felt rushed or sloppy, just carefully made and thoughtfully presented. What really stood out was the combination of excellent food and genuine hospitality. It's the kind of place where you feel comfortable, appreciated, and excited to come back again. You can tell a lot of pride goes into both the menu and the experience. If you're looking for great sushi made with care by people who truly love what they do, this spot is definitely worth visiting. Highly recommend! read more

Very nice place good sushi and other types of Japanese fish. Small cozy place and they have a karaoke if you want.

Ordered delivery from here so I cannot speak to what the inside is like, but the food came fast and the sushi was FRESH! The spicy Mayo was really spicy but overall I really liked this spot to order from. They have a lot of different options and it hit my sushi craving! read more

Came for the food, but ended up staying for the fun! Apparently dining here means having your meal along a side of Karaoke singing! No extra charge for the mic. I looked up on Yelp for a local sushi joint that would still be open for dinner late on a Friday night in Hicksville, said they close at 10:30pm and had plenty of four star reviews. It was close to 9pm by the time I sat and ordered so I was relieved they were open and we never felt rushed while dining. Walked in, scored the last table for four! Was handed menus and then a neighboring table was passing us a mic! I heard the music and realized in a matter of seconds, that I just walked into a Karaoke dining restaurant. I had not read the reviews when I arrived but their Instagram tells us plenty. This place is very popular for their sushi rolls and their karaoke all day. In fact, staff encourages all by asking folks to pick songs. Everyone was into the scene; we were just really surprised as we didn't expect dinner and a show (provided by ourselves)! The menu has pan-Asian fare but the highlight is their sushi. The fish was fresh and plated interestingly on "take out" containers as dishware. Not sure why but I'm guessing more efficiency during Covid. Our waitress was super friendly as was the manager. This is like the "Cheers" version of a Japanese Sushi Bar. Everyone that was here this evening was on the restaurant's IG and they knew everyone's name! I was sitting with regulars and didn't know until I scanned the IG stories. Too funny. Every sushi combo we ordered was great: sake don, Chirashi and sushi and sashimi combo. We ordered a few appetizers - baby octopus was delicious. And my kids liked the potato croquettes. I was a fan of the spicy tuna tar tar but it could use some chips or seaweed to go with it. It was just one giant plate of this stuff so I would've liked to eat it with something. There's bubble tea, assorted drinks like Thai Iced Tea, and even Root Beer floats! The menu really was something to look at! Swing by for the food and get your drink on ... Fun evening out with the family. Of course when I got home, I texted all my friends about this place. Too funny. read more

A Japanese joint with high ratings like Kiraza Sushi. Of course, I needed to check it out. The restaurant itself is very tiny with only three tables and a bar, but they offer pretty much everything from sushi to hibachi, from bubble tea to beer and sake. We started out with a few appetizers including Baby Octopuses, Yellowtail Jalapeño, Fried Oysters and Bubble Tea. Every dish was served in a plastic container which I find odd, but whatever. All appetizers were good. We then ordered two bottles of Kirin Ichiban. As for the main course, we ordered Sashimi Deluxe and three rolls of sushi; Eel Avocado, Salmon Skin and Spicy Crab Avocado. Sashimi was fresh, but I found sushi rolls a little sloppy. I even found some fish bones in one of them. Anyway, I was very happy with the service and how attentive our waitress was. I'd definitely come back to Kirazu for more sushi, beer and sake for sure. read more

Blown away at how delicious this spot is. the service is so attentive and the food was awesome. Portions are just the right size and they serve everything on disposable trays which was awesome. I loved it. The magi bubble tea blew me away, it's better than any bubble tea spot. I had to finish my meal with mochi ice cream, the owner surprised us with sake shots for free and i couldn't refuse! read more

Kirazu Sushi - passion fruit bubble tea with lychee jelly OMG delicious - Japanese Near Me - Hicksville, New York

This was such a cute Mom and Pop sushi spot that I stumbled across purely by accident. It's quaint, with two tables and a bar but is perfect for an intimate dinner or lunch. It was decked out in holiday decorations, which I loved!! The menu was pretty expansive with Hibachi and Mongolian dishes as well, and the prices were fair. I ordered three rolls (Shrimp Tempura, Chicken Tempure, Spicy Crab Meat Avocado) for $14.95, which wasn't too bad. I also ordered a Thai Iced Tea ($3.95), Takoyaki ($8.95), and Fried Squid ($8.95). The Thai Iced Tea was standard and I enjoyed it a lot. It was a 9/10. The Takoyaki was delicious and well made, and a solid 9/10 for me. The Fried Squid wasn't too bad, and had a good batter. I wish there were a bit more pieces. Overall, it was a 7/10. The rolls were delicious and fresh! I loved that they had such a variety of rolls, and plan to revisit to try some of the specialty rolls. Overall, 10/10! This is such a cute spot that I plan to revisit in the future. The staff was very nice and attentive, and the ambiance was very relaxing and chill. It's a great spot if you want a more intimate meal. read more

My husband and I decided to try this place out for our lunch date today. Since we were on a tight schedule, we decided to stay in the area. This is probably one of the few Japanese restaurants that opens at 11am on all of Long Island. It is in a secluded shopping complex about 3 minutes off the Wantagh Parkway on Stewart Ave in Hicksville with a lot so you won't have to worry about finding parking or paying for a meter. The only one negative is the limited dine-in seating because of the compact space (2 tables & 6 sushi bar seats). However, we've received top-tier customer service (being the only ones there) and all the food we had was fresh with amazing taste. We got a Thai iced tea, eel avocado rolls, eel sushi as well as some of their specialty rolls-spicy lizard roll, sunnyishan roll and sharon roll. All the sushi tasted fresh like it was off the boat and the protein vs rice ratio was perfect. My husband thought the Thai iced tea was really good and probably the top 3 in his book and that's saying alot because he is a Thai tea snob. Price maybe a little on the expensive side but it is worth the quality of food you will receive. We also got a complimentary mochi ice cream for dessert and the owner, Bobby made some intimate small talk before we left. We'll definitely be back again. If you're in the area and in the mood for some quality sushi, look no further than Kirazu! read more

Servers were friendly and quick. The sushi was just ok. We also order the takoyaki, don't recommend - it wasn't cooked enough and was quite liquidy. The restaurant was small and most people did takeout. We sat at the bar and had a great view of the tv and the server offered to give us the karaoke mic which was very sweet of her read more

The BEST sushi in town!! I love ordering take out & it's always ready so fast. They're super friendly & the sushi is so fresh yum

So I'm in this shopping center often but this is my first time at Kirazu Sushi. There are about 3 dine in table plus a few seats at the sushi bar. I sat at the sushi bar with my husband. It was a busy night, lots of takeout orders and all tables filled. I really liked the vibe of the restaurant- fun music playing you want to sing along to. All other customers were returning customers, the owner greeted many by first name. Lovely waitress who was kind and the sushi chef was non stop making sushi for everyone. The staff running the restaurant said it was a busy night so the sushi might take a little longer. It wasn't an issue at all because it was so nice listening to the music they had playing on a stereo and we ordered and enjoying our night. Once the food was served, I thought my sushi was great. I'm a lover of a dragon roll and sushi sandwich and the sushi chef did a great job with the ratio of all ingredients and flavors. I was really pleased with my meal and so was my husband. Overall, it's a great spot for a casual sushi dinner for locals of the neighborhood to enjoy. I will be back!! Thanks for a great experience read more

This place is a hidden gem! Service is always amazing, its always clean and the food never misses! Fresh and consistent. A+ food

I'm not a fan of sushi, but my sister is. We wanted to check this place out, and I AM SO GLAD we did! It is very tiny inside however, the hospitality beats anything I've ever received in this world. The girl, the waitress was very helpful, kind and generous. Food4/5: we ordered crab lagoon, Tom, Yum soup, four different sushi rolls and stir fry udon noodles. They were all very good, however, seemed a little salty. But still very good! Service 5/5: again, the waitress was so amazing! I admired her kindness. She offered us to do karaoke and a free shot of sake. Environment 3/5: it's a small place, but very cozy at the same time. I'll suggest either take out or a great place for you and a friend to catch up. I don't recommend this as a date spot. read more

They are so friendly and good consistent food. Owners will force Karaoke but soften it will an occasional sake on the house!

$1.75 unsweetened iced tea $10.95 special roll $2.50 miso soup The miso soup was very tasty, although a smaller sized bowl - cup size I suppose. But, .... doesn't the special roll look kinda small too? Like tiny pieces ? Pops into your mouth easily, so this place is great for that date when you don't want a giant piece you can't even chew properly without looking crazy LOL The ice cream mochi? Green tea with that chocolate drizzle makes a nice touch. I would have liked more choices on the menu for special rolls, perhaps naruto roll ... idk none of them really jumped out at me so I went with spicy tuna. Overall, great service, wasn't rushed and was served promptly with a smile. read more

Nice little cozy sushi restaurant...with sushi bar and a few tables. Friends and I came here for dinner after a long day. Food and service were good. Scallion pancake appetizer - pancakes were tiny! Dynamite role was good. We each ordered bento box dinners which came fairly quick. Dinners were good. I had the hibachi shrimp bento. Entertainment: Music videos were playing all night and was really cool - go to hear some older songs and songs we never heard before. Mini dessert and shots of sake on the house was a nice touch. Will definitely come back again. read more

Walked in and they were playing queen (loved it!). Ok, now onto what you're looking for. The place is VERY tiny, so I don't recommend a group gathering. The food is yummy, and the sushi is fresh. It looked as if it was "the spot" for take out because so many people came and went. There are a few tables so show up. read more

We needed a sushi restaurant to meet someone about halfway between us. So what does a reasonable person do in that situation? Check Yelp of course. Yelp led us to Kirazu. THANK YOU Yelp! This tiny sushi restaurant off the beaten path in Hicksville is the best Japanese restaurant I've been to in a long time. The service was fantastic! The waitress was friendly and helpful. The owner/manager (I don't know which) was a total hoot! He was helpful, extremely friendly, and almost more of an emcee. There was a young girl at the other table (yes, there are only 2 tables here) and our host for the night brought her a karaoke microphone to sing to the restaurant. They had fun and we enjoyed it too. Now for the food. Their assortment of specialty roles is amazing. They have some really fantastic original rolls. I kept to a basic sushi deluxe dinner. The assortment was terrific and the fish was amazingly fresh, the perfect temperature and beautifully cut. It was excellent. Everyone at the table loved what they ordered. We had one small hiccup, one of us ordered the regular sushi dinner that did not say it came with a maki roll. When her dinner came there was a spicy tuna roll. She cannot eat anything spicy, it does mean things to her stomach. When we spoke to the manager there was NO problem. He swiftly removed her plate and brought it back with a regular tuna roll. I find a great way to know the true nature of a place is how they handle issues that arise. Kirazu made the issue disappear with a smile! Its location makes it a tough regular stop for me, but if you have a chance, give your taste buds a treat and enjoy this little Japanese gem in Hicksville. I certainly will whenever I get a chance. read more

This place was phenomenal! The service was absolutely amazing. I asked them to make me a customized roll, and they ended up creating a roll named Riana's Roll (which I recommend getting). I also was not expecting karaoke but it was so much fun. Everyone in the restaurant bonded. It was amazing and a great time! read more

Tried this small sushi place for the first time on a Friday night. It did not disappoint! The sushi/sashimi was fresh and the portions were big compared to other sushi restaurants in the area. There is a wait on the food as it is prepared fresh and served on small trays that you can take with you if you don't finish all of it (we ended up taking plenty home). Please give this place a try! The food was so delicious that we forgot to take pictures! They even gave us complimentary sake shots in the end! Such great people working here!!!! Our new fave in the neighborhood! read more

I came here after I've been craving a shrimp Tempura Roll all week. I looked up this restaurant on Yelp. I browsed the menu and the affordable procise on the rolls deawed me in. The great reviews also helped. The service is superb here! It's worth coming here just for that. I was greeted right away and treated like a guest for real! I was checked in on and the owner checked in in the guests and he seems like someone that genuinely likes to feed his guests. I ordered the 3 roll combination for $12.95 I got a shrimp tempura, spicy crab avocado roll, and spicy salmon roll. The rolls were delicious and we'll worth the deal. This is the type of deal you typically get as a lunch special and I had this around dinner time. The shrimp tempura was the highlight for me because of course I was craving it. Every thing tasted fresh. They served me a salad (the salad could have been more on the green side however) and I even got a complimentary ice cream dessert! I would definitely come back here and I highly recommend you give the restaurant a shot. It's cozy with seating for about 15 and there's parking as is in a small strip mall type of shopping center. read more

I don't know how I've gone so many years without knowing this place is here. First off, this place is tiny. A few tables and chairs, and you can also sit at the bar area and watch them make the rolls. It's beautifully decorated with tons of little knick knacks. A tv in the corner plays YouTube music (which played the most random mix of music I've ever heard yet it somehow worked). The menu is small if you're not a sushi eater (like me), however, you'll still find something you'll like. I started with a mango bubble tea which was delicious. For my entree I had the chicken lo mein. This was SO good. It came out piping hot and was filling. We received a free dessert and a shot of sake when the waitress heard it was our first time there. We will definitely be back and you can tell they have returning customers. Every person that came in they knew by name and treated like an old friend. read more

Really cute small restaurant. Owners are super friendly and food is fresh and tasty! We were so hungry that I didn't get a chance to take pictures. Will definitely come back here again and again. We ordered Spicy Lizard, BnM, James Bond, Out of Control, & Hicksville roll. Also ordered the Steve Special Salad, Takoyaki and Tom Yum Soup. All very tasty! Was so full that we didn't get a chance to get any dessert. We will be back for sure! Also love the music. Be prepared to sing along and get your Karaoke game on! read more

There are sushi spots that basically just pile mayo and other sauces onto a mishmash of random fish. Then there are sushi places that focus on the simplicity and delicacy that made sushi a worldwide sensation. Kirazu is the latter. If you want a basic 2-3 roll combo, it's tough to beat this place. The owner is the kindest and most jubilant fellow you'll ever meet, and his staff feeds off of his energy. Highly recommend. read more

To start this place is tiny. My friend and I were the only two to eat there in the hour+ we were there. I think they could really only fit a dozen or so people comfortably between the tables and the bar. As such they do way more take away. In the time we were there we saw 8 pick ups and a couple people come to in to order and leave. And I understand why. The sushi was quite good. My friend and I both got the sushi deal where you get three rolls off a selection for I think it was $15.50. Not bad. And if you pick more expensive ones of the selection you are saving some money. I got spicy tuna, spicy salmon, and a shrimp tempura. The shrimp tempura was the best of the three rolls but all were good. And my friend enjoyed her rolls as well. Not sure if we'll be back as we went there cause we were in the area. But if you live close, I recommend it. read more
