This is the best Sushi spot on Long Island. Freshest fish, artfully prepared, no shortcuts. The Sushi chefs here are masters at their craft and they take it very seriously. Got the special Sushi/Sashimi combo and had the chefs 'surprise me', with a roll of their choice... which always turns out amazing. Cant say enough nice things about this place! read more

Came here for dinner. The restaurant was nice and the service was good. We ordered a couple of appetizers to share since we went that hungry. The sushi sandwich was cute. The good was okay. Nothing was crazy delicious. Everything was fresh. We would definitely go back to try other things on the menu read more

I've only eaten here once but I loved it. Try the fireman ‍ roll if you get the chance. Perfect amount of heat!

The absolute must go to Sushi spot in Commack that is truly authentic, delicious, friendly, and fresh. The building looks like it could be someones house, and upon going in it really looks homey and intimate. The place was packed, every table full, and we now know why because of how good the sushi rolls were: I got a Halloween Roll which was really good, and my gf got two other rolls which she loved as well, one was a super spicy Tuna Roll. Highly recommend, officially our favorite neighborhood Sushi spot. read more

Kurofune Japanese Restaurant - Sashimi Deluxe plus extra favorites! - Japanese Near Me - Commack, New York

I really liked the way the inside of the restaurant looks. Very cultural and comfortable seats. Looks a bit run down outside but pretty well kept inside. Service was nice- server was attentive. Although I did notice a difference between the treatment of the table next to us and ourselves. Im going based off of observations. We were both table of 2's, came in at the same time, girls, and yet one was checked on by the owner profusely while we were ignored and we were sitting across from each other. (wondering if it's a race issue as they were both white and we were not). Who knows but this definitely crossed my mind throughout the dinner. I would hope that this is not the case. Otherwise the servers kept up with refills. Food was okay. Not the best and I mainly questioned the freshness of it all. Appetizers: -Miso Soup: I enjoyed this. It was tasty. Entrees: -Alaskan roll: (cucumber, salmon, avocado) generally enjoyable, however I couldn't help but taste the salmon and feel something was off. Not the freshest piece of salmon and the avocado was also pretty browned. -Bulgogi roll: (marinated rib eye w/korean sauce, pickled radish, spicy Mayo, jalapeño and chili sauce) I enjoyed this although again questioned if it was fresh or past due. Something about how the beef looked. Beef was not warm so it was definitely sitting in the fridge or idk where- wondering for how long. -Summer Roll: (shrimp, crab stick, cucumber, avocado, red onion, lettuce wrapped with rice paper) my friend said she enjoyed this although she did have trouble eating this with chopsticks and a fork. Almost looked like mini burritos/hand rolls if anything rather than sushi rolls. She enjoyed the sauce that came with it. My stomach was not agreeable with this meal unfortunately and I did suffer some stomach aches while trying to finish up my meal. This was my first tell tale sign that there may be something up with the quality of the sushi. Will probably not be back. read more

Fresh sushi and wonderful service. We are always greeted with a smile whether ordering take out or dining in.

Good menu, I forgot what we got. My wife and I liked every thing we tried. We got a couple rolls and one fried oyster app and yuzu ice cream. I recommend, unique menu, seems like they take their time with every dish. read more

Honestly was super impressed with the size of the rolls and the freshness. You can tell they are very authentic, the rice is super soft and fresh. I got the fireman roll, k1 roll and salmon avocado. Everything was absolutely delish. The rolls stand out to me compared to competitors due to side, freshness and authenticity. I had seen a lot of recommendations to come here so was excited to try. I got take out and the process was easy. The menu is a bit pricey but worth it for the quality. Will be back! Worth the drive. read more

Fresh is the only word that matters in Japanese restaurants, and Kurofune delivered. My family and some friends came with a large group which they accommodated and which gave me the opportunity to try lots of different dishes since we ate family style. First, I liked everything that I tried, you won't be disappointed if you randomly point at the menu without reading it or get confused by the Japanese names of the menu. For appetizers, try the Spicy Edamame, you'll be surprised at the perfect balance of spice, hot enough to give a burst of flavor but not too hot to burn. The description of the Squid Salad doesn't give justice to this dish. This was one of my favorite dishes. Also try the Rising Sun. The rolls were fresh, my favorites were the Jalapeño Salmon and Halloween Roll, but really the freshness at Kurofune makes everything so much better. My youngest wasn't very adventurous, so she got the chicken teriyaki and described it as "mouthwatering". I finished with ginger ice cream. It was like eating a creamy ginger snap. You have to try it. I also got to try the Fried Ice Cream which was great! Just to wrap up my comments if you are planning a date. Parking was easy. Atmosphere was cozy, not too loud, and not eerily quiet. Chairs were designed with craftsmanship from an era before simplicity meant cheap. I really enjoyed everything even with a large group. Sorry for the pictures. I was mostly done with the meal before thinking, "I should definitely write a review for this place." read more

The food was good. Pretty solid, but nothing so special.We ordered the green devil roll and it was overpowered by the jalapeño. the pieces of tuna were very good, but it was outdone by the jalapeño. The flying dragon was basic. read more

My family and I came here tonight right after a drive home from our ski week getaway. We ordered the Sushi and Sashimi for 2 combo plus the Caribbean Roll. The combo comes with soup and salad. The food was so fresh and delicious!! It's the best it's ever been! We have been here many times in the past. Our waiter was professional, helpful and personable! We talked about Tokyo as I hope to visit there one day! He gave us great tips! Then the new owner came out and introduced herself to us. She was so nice!! We ended our meal with the fried ice cream. Everything was so fresh and delicious!! I loved the Caribbean Roll. Everything was great! I recommend this place if you like sushi! We will be back again. read more

My daughter was craving sushi for her 20th birthday dinner, so off we went to Kurofune, which had been on my "want to try" list for awhile. We were not disappointed. Excellent sake menu (we enjoyed our toast!), perfect with the amazingly ethereal fluke sashimi and spicy squid appetizers. For mains, we each chose a different sushi roll, and I cannot say which was best, they were all amazing. Nice mochi dessert, too! read more

We ordered curbside due to the Covid-19 pandemic bc my tastebuds are screaming for freedom! Tired of cooking at home! Tip: To beat the dinner rush... we ordered ahead and everything was prepared within 30 mins! That's calling it in, driving to the parking lot. Food was all prepared and given through the side door! Everything was amazing.. just as it is when we dined here! I'm a huge fan! Their shrimp rolls are always excellent) my kid ate all of her California rolls! Love the chicken katsu! Miso soup is always great! My other party ate her entire tempura udon! I will be back soon! read more

Kurofune is a consistent, delicious establishment. Family run, the staff is kind and the chefs are talented. I only wish they'd be open for lunch as they're dinner only and open every day aside from Monday. read more

Wow. I couldn't understand why my son was Obsessed with Kurofune Japanese Restaurant it was delicious. We started off with the Flying Dragon Roll It's deep-fried shrimp & cucumber inside with avocado on top, definitely a different roll. Then we had the Shrimp Shumai which is a absolutely delicious dumpling. I Highly recommend it! The Teriyaki Salomon was perfectly cooked as requested & it comes with fresh broccoli & carrots We ordered a Bento box with Korean Bulgogi (loved it )it comes with California roll, Shrimp & Veggie Tempura and Sushi. Everything was delicious & perfectly cooked. You don't even have to get out of the car to pick up your food. read more

Great food, great service, great atmosphere. I've enjoyed both the dine-in experience and take out, and both are phenomenal.

The food is amazing. I ordered the curry rice, chicken katsudon. They were delicious and well prepared. I give this place 10 stars.

I came here today and the food was incredible. The restaurant had a great interior atmosphere and the service was fast and good. I had the Halloween roll, spicy edamame and the beef negimaki. The fish was super fresh and the wasabi was delicious. The edamame was not too spicy, it had very good flavor. The beef negimaki was good to share, super juicy and came with rice. I highly recommend eating here. read more

Food is excellent and service is great. Very warm and welcoming. Best choice in Suffolk County for sushi.

I checked out Kurofune a couple of months ago and have become a regular. The fish is always super high quality and always tastes very fresh. The oyster yaki is a must try, as well the ceviches from the sushi bar that are my favorite. Not only is the food delicious, but the service is amazing. The staff are super welcoming and friendly, and are always attentive. This place is a must try if you are in the Long Island area! read more

Excellent food quality! I usually come here with my family for their lunch special. Everyday they have a different bentobox special. My favorites are the sushi over rice. It comes with soup & salad. The restaurant ambiance is really nice and extremely homey. They have two separate seating locations and meant to seat 2-8 people. Overall I do enjoy coming here and would recommend it to a friend. read more

Kurofune Japanese Restaurant - Japanese Near Me - Commack, New York

Best sushi restaurant on Long Island. Sushi chefs Toshi-san and Hiro-San are very skilled and wonderful. Staff is lovely too.

I had a large fish bone(a first for me) in my yellowtail hand roll that I almost choked on and all the hand rolls seemed to be filled with fish scraps on the hand roll dinner special ... on top of that I have food poisoning and have been sick all night and the next day ... Will never go back ... I would give 0 stars but unable to put in review without placing a star.... read more

Mediocre sushi, left more to be desired. It was not busy but seemed to have some take outs going on.

You know what I hate?! I hate having my hopes up for a good meal and only to be crushed because the food/service was just meh. Enter... Kurofune. Situated in the middle of Long Island. On the near end or beginning of Commack Road depending on how you view things. I say beginning because where I'm coming from I'm usually turning on to Commack Road from Vets. Although it has updated over the years and honestly I think the last time I was here I was maybe 7 or 8? Yeah my parents were ground breakers and liked sushi in the late 80s early 90s and didn't just get into the recent hype of said sushi. Both my parents recall taking me and I'd stab Cheerios with the chopsticks when I was really little. Anyway... enough of me rambling about my past here's the scoop. My dad wanted to come here to come back to our old roots since it's been years since we've been. He looks on his TripAdvisor I look on my Yelp. We both concur that it still appears to be good so off we go. Unfortunately... in mine and my mom's opinion it wasn't that great. Aji 53 & Kotobuki blow this place right outta the water. I really don't mean to be biased but Kurofune is not #1 in my book. Maybe we're just too fussy with Sushi and that's why they don't even come near the number 1 & 2 spot. But keyword is MAYBE. Anyway... we ordered the following: - Oyster Yaki: Okay... so maybe they are trying to copy Kotobuki's hype of fried oysters and honestly they were just weak in comparison. No disrespect but just weak. The last Oyster I consumed was incredibly fishy. Blech gross! - Tuna Carpaccio: WoW! Me thinks Kurofune is really going trying to copy Kotobuki. Usually at Kotobuki I down my water or finish my glass of wine before I finish eating this at Kotobuki. Honestly. Again this was straight weak. Not enough zip... just boring. - Beef Negamaki: My dad ordered this. He said it was "OK." Unfortunately I cannot vouch for the "OK" rating from my dad since I didn't have a piece. - Lobster Salad Roll: So honestly... for my mom and I? This was the best thing we ate here. This is a solid roll. - Crab Roll: My dad ordered this as well. He seemed to like it? But I wasn't about to ask my dad what he thinks of the experience we had at Kurofune whilst sitting in Kurofune. The service was mediocre at best in my opinion. They were rather slow and not quick to fill up the water. Will I be back? No I'm sorry I don't plan on it. Do I recommend coming here? No you're better off hitting up Aji 53 or Kotobuki. Sorry Kurofune. read more

Amazing service, great quality food and I loved the small atmosphere! Would highly recommend this place!!

a hidden gem! The best Japanese restaurant I tried so far on Long Island. The sashimi is super fresh and the service is great as well!

Of all the (many) places in the area, I find that the quality of both fish and rice is by far the best at Kurofune. While at most local places ordering the chirashi means getting 3 pieces each of salmon, yellowtail, tuna, plus maybe the cheap stuff like escolar, Kurofune's chirashi has a far superior variety of fish for the same price. Their attention to detail shows in things like their homemade tamago. Their house dressing is unique and delicious. Even their avocado rolls knock the others in the area out of the park. read more

Kurofune has such good food but their estimate on time the food will be ready is often very far off. Tonight, we were told 30 mins for pickup. After waiting outside for 20 mins (total of 45 mins after ordering), I left and didn't get my order. They kept saying-you are up next but that never happened. Sorry, I am not waiting an hour for food when you said 30 mins. read more

Had a great dinner here with family. Had the regular sushi entree and was very happy with the quality of the food. Fish was well prepared and fresh.
