Eel Handroll
Karen Y.

Every week they have a $5 handroll special! This week it was eel - super worth! It was indeed a lot of rice though. The mango salmon was fresh and flavorful! The yellowtail was as well. The spicy scallop had too much mayo; it overpowered the taste of the scallop. Total came out to ~$40 for 4 handrolls.

Amazing handrolls! Especially the Salmon/Ikura, Garlic Toro, Waygu, Miso Cod. The best handroll restaurant that I have ever been to! Can't wait to go there again.

This place is very spacious and the staff was quickly to attend to us! However the place could use some AC as it felt very humid and stuffy inside (esp on a hot summer day). I highly recommend the salmon cups as the sashimi was fresh and everything paired well together, just be aware that it's very small! My only complaint is that the seaweed that came with the hand rolls were soggy and not crispy like other places, so it didn't feel fresh and it was pretty hard to take bites. Overall this was a fun experience, but I wouldn't come again casually as it is very pricey!

Spicy Scallop Handroll
Kobe Z.

We really loved the Matsunori in Boston and was exciting learning that there was an NYC location. They took reservations and it was easy to book, even for a Friday evening. The service was attentive, serving the handrolls one-by-one and coming back to take our next order. It was very well-paced. The standout handrolls were the spicy scallop and the miso butter cod. Perfect spot for a date night and would be coming back again to fulfill the sushi/handroll craving!

Cozy and ambient interior, great for catching up with friends or date. Impressed with the fish to rice ratio, it felt like 70:30 which really allows you to taste the fish youre eating. Rolls aren't very filling and kind of expensive. I had 4 rolls and was still hungry at the end so take that as you will. Service was kind and efficient.

Easy yummy hand rolls in LIC, came on a Sunday night close to opening and it filled up pretty quickly after we sat down. Service was lovely, even though it seems like mostly 2 people running the floor, they're doing an amazing job. They're quick, very much like omakase at table, it felt like we were getting new handrolls every 2 min. From sitting down to getting the check, 45 min. It's not a huge place but ample seating and space, good sound architecture, not crazy noisy or overstimulating. Low warm ambient lighting. We got a mix of different hand rolls. We each ended up with 4-5 rolls each and felt like we could've honestly stopped at 3, but def wanted to try everything. We felt like the portion sizes were more than fair, they pack it in with fish and we felt very full by the end. Spicy Salmon was lovely, salmon quality was very fresh and the sauce brought out nice flavors. Didn't love the regular Salmon handroll, for some reason the Salmon felt/tasted different, thought it was even smoked salmon at first. The Scallop was nice, good quality, felt like the toppings could've worked better to bring out the sweet butter flavors of scallop more. The Uni was nice, MP (19.50 the day we went) Quality was good but again wish they worked a little more with the details to bring out the uni flavors a bit more. It was getting a bit muted for me. My friend loved the Shrimp tempura and the Wagyu, good balanced flavors and nice textures. We had the Yellowtail last and at that point was so full so wasn't vibing as much but they def pack in the yellowtail, I liked the idea of the rice puffs for texture but not sure if the bite felt fully right ~ Overall quality of the fish, seaweed and rice 8/10 Could work on bringing out some lighter complimentary textures/flavors but could also be my personal preference :))

Miso Butter Cod Handroll
Mike Z.

Had a delightful quick dinner at Matsunori, and I was excited to share the experience! While the handrolls are not very cheap, they definitely fill you up given the size; this is especially true for the specialty rolls which are in the $10-11 range per item! The restaurant was not too busy on a random weeknight, so service was prompt. The servers also kept the appetizer and handrolls at a good pace throughout!

Decided to try this new place last weekend and it was so good! The rolls came out fast and service was super friendly and attentive! Some rolls were ~$18 which is pretty pricey. I ordered: - A5 wagyu: 4/5 Super tender and flavorful but it didn't blow me away. - Miso Cod: 5/5 This was absolute favorite! The cod was so buttery, flavorful, and perfectly flaky. - Spicy crab: 3/5 Creamy and well-seasoned but seemed pretty average. - Spicy tempura shrimp 4/5 Loved the crunch of the shrimp and you definitely got a kick from the spice. - Spicy Scallop: 4/5 The scallop was fresh and melted in your mouth. So delicious. Overall, the food was delicious and the service was great! However, I do think the prices are steep and not sure if I would be willing to pay that price again.

Very good selection of handrolls, albeit they were very expensive. 5 handrolls costed around $89 with tax and tip, and it was not super filling. The quality of ingredients was definitely top notch but I think the combination of ingredients did not mesh well together. Miso butter cod was super flavorful, but the toro was a less fattier cut (Expected o toro for the price) and did not add much flavor. The shrimp tempura was super messy with all the flavor combinations, the wagyu was nothing special. The scallop was good with the yuzu salt though to bring out the fish. Overall, the handrolls were pretty but the price does not match the taste

Unfortunately my return visit to Matsunori was a flop. Service was kind but the food was simply not up to par. The most expensive roll I ordered was a complete let down as the toro seemed to be straight from the freezer (way too cold). Probably will not be going back a third time.

All the hand rolls I got were great. Definitely yummy, but it is very much on the pricy side. From just these 3 handrolls alone, I spent ~$50 (including tax and tip). I wasn't full unfortunately. Interior was cute, and the service was good. I don't know if I'd come back only for the price point.

Toro Mushroom Handroll
Holly S.

What an incredible addition to Long Island City! This sushi hand roll spot completely blew me away. From the moment I walked in, the attention to detail was clear--clean, minimalist space, super friendly staff, and an atmosphere that lets the food speak for itself. The hand rolls? Absolutely next-level. The fish was incredibly fresh--melt-in-your-mouth quality--and each roll was made to order with precision and care. The presentation was beautiful too, with a focus on simplicity and balance that really highlights the quality of the ingredients. You can tell they care about what they're serving, and it makes all the difference. Every bite was delicious, from the crisp nori to the perfectly seasoned rice. Whether you're a sushi lover or just looking for a standout meal in LIC, this place is a must-try. Spicy Scallop and miso cod were my favorites

Uni & miso cod hand rolls were my favorite. These hand rolls are actually very filling. Service was very fast & efficient. Nice spot to go for a quick bite if you're craving sushi

We originally made a resso for 7 people for 12 on Sunday. We weren't able to make it until 1:30 so…read morewe called ahead and luckily they were too busy that day and were able to accommodate. We wanted to do omakase so we took over the sushi bar (which fits about 8). For $90, you get 16 courses. I can't remember all the pieces we ate but I do remember that my favorite pieces included the sweet shrimp (especially the fried shrimp head), wagyu, uni with caviar, fatty yellowtail, scallop, and monkfish liver. I think this was my first time trying monkfish liver and it was great. It's rich but it came served with some kind cucumber mango lime salsa, which sounds like a weird pairing but it just worked. They also kept the sake flowing for us, which made for a fun brunch. From the outside, it looks like a regular sushi takeout place, but don't sleep on the omakase!

With my last two orders I had rolls made with tempura shrimp or soft shell crab as well as uncooked…read morerolls, The uncooked rolls are fine, The tempura was cooked in oil that was so old, the coating was brown and it tasted bitter, The shrimp smelled fishy and tasted bitter. I am so sorry to write this review, What happened Akio? I ordered again just to see if the first bad experience was a fluke, I am sorry to say the second time was worse! Almost as if they use the oil from other fries to cook the crab and shrimp tempura, Never ordering again, This stuff is too expensive to keep throwing it away

This was my first time coming to Daikon Sushi in Forest Hills. I came with four of my family…read moremembers and let me tell you this is not the last time. It was the best sushi I have ever had. The quality of the fish was very fresh and the way they presented the sushi was beautiful. I've been too many sushi places in Manhattan and all around the Queen's area but I must say this is the top place to be and the service is on point ambience is very clean and trendy. I would highly recommend Daikon Sushi!!!

Daikon is apparently the Japanese side of an otherwise generically American restaurant with split…read morepersonality (like a culinary Two Face), complete with its own Japanese-inspired menu. I hate to bring down a mom 'n' pop shop, but this place isn't very good. It's also kinda pricey for Forest Hills and for the quality you get. Sigh. The best dishes we got were the Oxtail Croquettes and the Crispy Salmon. Things started going downhill at the pretty but bizarrely flavored Forest Hills Roll, which inexplicably pairs salmon, tobiko, orange, chives, avocado sauce, and teriyaki mayo. I appreciate a creative/fusion roll, but salmon and orange should never, ever exist on the same plate. Ever. The worst item we got was the Chicken Udon. I'm not sure how aany Asian restaurant could mess up such a staple dish, but in Daikon's case, it's because they used Japanese SOUP udon, not stir-fry udon. As soon as the plate was set, I could tell it was the wrong type of udon, and the udon was massively overcooked. Yes, there are different types of udon and they are meant to be cooked in different ways. They are identifiable by their shapes, storage needs and preparation needs, a memo Daikon clearly missed. Points for loading the dish with veggies, but eating them within the soggy mess of udon was just unpleasant.
