Amazing! Q rico. Fried chicken como ninguno. So good. Beautiful sunset rooftop. Owner personally came to check on us.

Yo Mama Sushi in Williamsburg needs to be studied by scientists because I still can't understand how they managed to mess up THIS bad. Me and my wife came here expecting the same experience we got from the Elizabeth location when they were open. Instead, we walked into what felt like a social experiment on patience and bad food. Got there at 7:48 PM. Didn't get seated till after 8. Food ain't come out till almost 8:50 PM. Damn near an hour wait just to get served cold food is insane work. I ordered the grilled chicken bento box with brown rice. My wife got the teriyaki chicken bento box. Both plates came out cold like they were stored next to a body in the morgue. Rice was hard enough to break a windshield. Chicken was rubbery like they grilled a flip flop and sliced it up. Then came the Mexicano sushi roll... man WHAT was that? Looked nothing like the menu. Avocado was brown, shrimp still had shell pieces on it, and the whole thing tasted like it was made three business days ago and left in a refrigerator. And somehow they had the confidence -- the AUDACITY -- to charge $8 for water. WATER. At that point just spit in my face and call it customer service. This place is overpriced, overhyped, and honestly one of the worst dining experiences I've had in a while. We will never be back. Do yourself a favor and go to Apollo Restaurant down the block instead. Better food, better drinks, and the Henny Coladas actually slap. read more

Came here for my husband's birthday on Cinco de Mayo. We were originally looking for Mexican food (obviously ) but the lines at the 3 nearby Mexican restaurants were insane, so we ended up here instead. At first the place was pretty empty, but honestly it turned out to be a nice surprise. We were seated by the open area and the weather was beautiful -- sunny, relaxing, and the wine just hit perfectly. The gentleman helping our table was very friendly and welcoming. Then a waitress came over with iPads for the menu which we thought was pretty cool and modern. We ordered a pitcher of coconut margaritas. The price was great and they tasted really good, just not very strong. For appetizers we got the calamari, crab cakes, and chicken bites. The crab cakes were SUPER tiny, but the chicken bites were delicious. My husband ordered a steak sushi roll and really enjoyed it. My 13-year-old got a burger which surprisingly she didn't like... kind of shocking because it's hard to mess up a burger. I ordered the teriyaki chicken with rice and it was SO good. I even took leftovers home and ate them for lunch the next day at work. As the night went on the restaurant started getting busy, which made sense because all the nearby Mexican spots still had crazy lines. The downside was the service started slipping. We had to look around for the waitress multiple times just to get water and napkins, and it felt like the gentleman was handling most of our table instead. The bathroom was downstairs on the food side and was pretty clean. What really made me take away a star was the payment process. When it was time to pay, they brought the little card machine over with only the total on it and no itemized receipt. I like to know exactly what I'm being charged for before paying. Gratuity wasn't included, and we still tipped 18% because we do appreciate good service and we go out to eat often, but between having to search for service and not getting a detailed bill, it honestly left a bad taste and made me unsure about coming back. Overall, the food was mostly good, the atmosphere was nice, and I can see why the place filled up by the time we left, but they definitely seemed understaffed for the crowd they ended up getting. read more

1 star -- and that's being generous. We chose Mamasushi to celebrate my son's birthday last Saturday. What should have been a special night turned into an embarrassing and disrespectful experience. The server started off polite, took our order -- and then disappeared. Our drinks never arrived. No one checked on us. We were completely ignored. While we were still seated and planning to order dessert, we overheard a staff member say, "Get them out... I need that table." On a child's birthday. That was beyond unprofessional. Minutes later, the check was dropped with a rushed apology. The bill included two drinks we never received. They removed them -- but still added gratuity. Let's be clear: gratuity reflects service. There was none. We felt rushed out and insulted. First and last visit. I've already disputed the gratuity charge. Do better. read more

Not going to lie, I was a little worried based on the mixed reviews, but I'm here to give Mamasushi their 10's! My reservation was for 7:00 but I arrived a little early.. I asked my server if I could order a few items from the happy hour menu while there were just a few minutes to spare, and she obliged! I was so appreciative. I order a few sushi rolls, some fried shrimp, bao buns, a Philly cheesesteak egg roll, and drinks. Each item was only $8! When some sushi rolls could be about $20 on the regular menu, the happy hour prices were really a steal so I would recommend an early reservation to take advantage of it. When my friends arrived we ordered some more dishes like additional rolls, the lobster carbonara, and the fried rice with every kind of protein under the sun. Everything was really tasty and we left happy and full! Service was great and there was no wait or delay for anything. Maybe later at night or when they have the rooftop open it's busier and a little slower? But we had zero complaints and the food was great. I will happily return for happy hour soon! read more

The rooftop is where it's at! Besides the great drinks and fusion sushi rolls, the rooftop is very relaxing and had a good vibe for the summer. The wait staff; very attentive and quick with everything because they have a station on the rooftop which makes service efficient. They have really good happy hour as well and I was able to get most of my items off that menu, score! read more

My family and I came here for m nephew's JHS graduation. My nephew loves sushi and most of my family loves any dish with rice so this was the perfect fusion. Ive been to the Dyckman and Washington Heights location many years ago so I knew it was going to be good. We arrived a little late with notice and our` table was ready. The waiter came shortly and took our full orders and his device crashed. :-( he had to take our whole party of 9 orders again. This did cause a delay in food arrival but it's okay. My and Sister and I ordered frozen margaritas but the machine was unfortunately not working but no fear! I ended up getting a yummy Piña Colada like my best friend had. The rest of drinks and food came out shortly. The ambiance was amazing. I noticed that you could order hookah which I love but my baby was at the table lol. Mid way through our meal, the lights turned colorful and the restaurant became a vibe. The food was so yummy. My son had the 12oz NY strip medium well and it tasted do good! You can taste the yumminess of the grill. It was perfect. Juicy and tasty. The French fries were good and crispy. My mom got the Seared Salmon. I didn't get to try it for myself but she said it was delicious. It came with a side of hibachi style vegetables which consisted of zucchini, carrots & onions. My brother had the Chicken Teriyaki which he said was okay. My Stepdad had the Shrimp Bento Box and My nephew, the graduate had a Carajito Chicken Panko with a Shrimp Tempura on the side. He said it was good. And finally Me and My Bestfriend @Pamdeolall understood the assignment lol and both had a plate of an El Campesino roll along with a Traditional California Roll. The California was good as usual and El campesino was delicious too. It was queso de frier, avocado, fried salami in a roll with sweet plantain on top which was amazing. The only ask I would say is that the roll could've been warm. I know it's sushi but when eating those elements like the sweet plantain and cheese, I love them to be warm. All in all, I would return and I would definitely recommend :-) read more

Mamasushi - Dominican sushi platter - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Food is always served cold, I gave this place a few chances, but I'm always disappointed.

Service was very underwhelming. It took very long to get food & hookah. Food was okay.

Sometimes a place is a hit or miss. On this particular visit it was a miss. We dined up stairs on the roof top.( girls night just 3 of us) Saturday evening; finally the weather was decent after this recent heat wave. The decor through out the place is nice. The service has potential. The guy helping us was nice but overwhelmed and the other staff didnt come upstairs until much later to assist him. We ordered cocktails and it took 1 hr to come. They claimed the system was down . But tables that were seated after us received their drink orders. We requested to speak to the manager we were told the person was busy. The manager never came tbh I dont think one was present. The food also took a long time to come and it came before we got utensils or dipping sauce. We ordered the : grilled octopus sushi 6/10 Fried pork sushi 6/10 Crab cakes 8/10 ( it was just cold) Philly cheese steak egg rolls 8/10 (also needed to be hotter) Lollipop lamb chops 7/10 ( a bit tough and cooked more then we requested) Yucca fries 10/10( served at the right temp and not greasy) My cocktail was red sangria it tasted like fruit punch with apples cut up in it 3/10 For desert we got the chocolate cake with ice cream 5/10 I would want to come back maybe in the week to try out happy hour and see how they do. But for a first impression it was just ehh... much to be desired. read more

I hadn't been here in years since the only ones I had been to was the one uptown. However, I was excited to see it near my house! We went for dinner on a Sunday night. The food was good the quality from the fake crab, wassabi and ginger not so much. I would suggest the quality to be better since the prices are expensive. The service was good the waiter was attentive. The drinks were pricey as well. The ambiance was okay. I had the Kani Salad aside from the fake crab I found it to be good. We had the tuna tartare which was delicious and tried three of their specialty rolls- el campesino, mar y tierra, and el fuerte. I will be back but not too soon since the prices were high. read more

We went to the Brooklyn location on Friday, August 8th to celebrate my daughter Octavia's birthday. We went to the rooftop and was greeted by Jay. He gave us exceptional service all night long. We went during Happy Hour. The food selection was amazing. EVERYTHING we ate was top notch. We had calamari, sushi, cheese steak egg rolls, wonton tacos, dumplings, and fried snapper. OMG, we could not stop eating. The food was delicious. Drinks were on point. We also met the owner who greeted us with a smile and took the time to talk to us. Their media guy was also cool as hell. This is truly an awesome spot to try. Guess what, its AFFORDABLE!!! read more

I was thrilled to see MamaSushi open so close to home and was excited when my friend chose it to celebrate her birthday with seven of her closest friends. We arrived at 5 PM, and while there were a few customers, it wasn't too busy. The decor was stylish, and at first, our server, Anthony, was attentive. Since I have a shellfish allergy, I ordered the vegetable dumplings. As the happy hour plates started arriving, everyone enjoyed their appetizers--except for me. I patiently waited for my dumplings, but after an hour, they were still nowhere in sight. At no point did the server check in with us. When I finally asked about my order, Anthony admitted that it was never placed but assured me he would put it in right away. Another 30 minutes passed, and still no dumplings. By this point, everyone had already finished their appetizers, and I told the server I no longer wanted them. He insisted they were coming out soon, but when they finally arrived, they were cold and completely unappetizing. This experience was disappointing, to say the least. Poor service, forgotten orders, and cold food are not what I expected from this restaurant. Based on my visit, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. If you're considering dining here--consider yourself warned. read more

I hate writing negative reviews. But I have to be honest this place is an absolute let down. If you're planning to visit this place. I think you should reconsider & maybe cross the street & visit carnival. I'm not being biased either because carnival in my opinion is terrible too. But if I had to choose I'll pick carnival over mami sushi. So I came here yesterday. My mom has been driving us crazy to take her to a Dominican sushi place. We were sat down pretty quickly since the place was empty "now I know why". Our waitress was very nice & attentive. To be honest she's the only reason I'm giving this place a 2 stars. But the food oh no listen! YOU GUYS NEED TO SEASON YOUR FOOD! Every single thing I had was bland I had the chicken tempura with mashed yuca. Chicken super bland, tough & just terrible. I guess there one of those places that they expect the sauces to make up for the tasteless food. Sushi I don't remember which one I had & that just shows how bad it was I didn't care to remember which one I had it was that bad. The place itself is really nice they also have this rooftop which is pretty cool with a dj. They also have hookah. Is also pretty expensive & like I say I don't mind paying for food but dam can it at least be good. I thought it was just me being me a hard critic but after leaving this place I ask my family what they thought. They weren't impressed either. I wouldn't visit this place again. I'm not going to say you shouldn't either because it wasn't for me doesn't mean is not for you. You might like it so give it a try but remember I warned you. PS I know in all my reviews I take pictures but to be honest I didn't even care to take pictures I just wanted to go home & make me a cup of noodles I left feeling the same way I came in HUNGRY! read more

I wholeheartedly wish leaving zero stars was an option. From the tacky iPad menus, to the immediate delivery of spicy mayo (definitely intentioned to hide the awful taste of the food), to the ridiculous pricing, to the blaring party music, to the impressively bad service, to the world's saltiest miso soup, MamaSushi is hands down the worst "sushi" (it's not) restaurant I've step foot in in my life. I promise I mean no disrespect to the decent people who run the business, but the public deserves to know they are paying nearly Sugarfish prices for ginger and wasabi artificially dyed to look like the attached photo. Our waiter did notice we were disappointed and came up to ask what we didn't like--that deserves the one star this review reflects. read more

I've come here 3 times, first time was okay but this time I came for a friends birthday. A 3 people party including me and service was so slow. It took them 30 min to take our order, waiter made a mistake and combined our order with the table next to us. I let him know very politely and he cursed while leaving saying that "he knew" ? If he knew then why was it still in the bill? Lol but I would suggest another location! read more

I'm not sure if its because it was Sunday and brunch , but I got sushi or not so much sushi.. got more rice then sushi, Richie Ricardo with more imitation crab then Salmon and Tuna sushi as listed on the roll. We also ordered Tamarind margaritas and had to send it back was more marg less Tamarind to get the bill to reflect a Don Margarita / charged up charges for the flavors . The food was indeed better but still not worth the price tag. I got the lamb chops and my friend got the steak and shrimp both were good and nicely seasoned . The waitress barely checked back in throughout the duration of our meal ,but this is the problem when gratuity is automatically included -why is it automatically included for a party of two on a slow Sunday. If I go back it would only be for happy hour when the menu prices are drastically cheapest which is probably why it was soooo empty on a Sunday and skip the sushi. Overall they are too pricey for my liking .. no way a party of two bill should have been over 300$ for casual dining... drinks 20$ apps 25 plus .. entrees 50$ plus . Plus 50$ gratuity .. I miss the days you had the option to pay based off the services given not restaurants up charges and Brooklyn restaurants had Brooklyn prices not Manhattan Mama sushi is Mamapimpin with their priceshold your wallets ... read more

Bring ear plugs and be sure to double check your bill. Not only can you not hear each other speak with Spanish music blaring, for a party of two they automatically add an 18% gratutity to the bill. What a waist of a new remodeled neighborhood space read more
