    It's definitely a beautiful place that on the outside you would not guess looks like this or possessed this ambiance! The service was very efficient and the food was pretty enjoyable Now, if im being honest, I would definitely come back for a celebration or date night but is not your casual spot to satisfy your actual sushi cravings, is more of a slow dinner kind of situation!

    Maki Combos, Kani Salad, Rock Shrimp, Pork and Chicken Gyoza (Steamed)
    Sam Y.

    Ordered for delivery. Well packaged. The Kani Salad on the dryer side (barely any sauce), but had lots of fresh cucumbers and imitation crab. It could definitely use more sauce, since I mostly just taste the imitation crab. The Rock Shrimp was also light on sauce, but the batter holds up. Shrimp is cooked well. It came with a side of plain salad, which makes it feel even dryer. Maybe get some ginger dressing on the side. The Pork and Chicken Gyoza (Steamed) doesn't travel that well. I image it would be better fresh, as the wrapper is thin. Good porky filling. The Any 3 Maki Roll combo was a good deal. The maki rolls do not have too much rice, which I like, though the rice is a bit chewy as it does not have much vinegar. Feels more like regular rice than sushi rice. The seafood is fresh and decent quality. I went with Tuna, Salmon, and Shrimp Avocado (which was more avocado than shrimp). Overall a little pricey for what you get, and the food was on the blander side. I'd rather get my sushi elsewhere.

    Fried red snapper
    Sally A.

    3.5 really. Went for restaurant week. What a great value. I think I ordered wrong... should have stuck to the sushi. I went for lunch. The portions are very generous. I got the fried rice with the tuna tartar and truffle. It was yummy, with a very subtle truffle scent. The rice balls were significantly larger than the amount of tuna on top. With that said, it was still delicious. The Mongolian beef was only slightly better than that you would get at a fat food Chinese store... so don't be like me, order something that makes more sense. The fried red snapper was surpassing as it was many filets of fish. They were well cooked, but overpowered by the sauce, which was just okay. The millet had citrus in it, so i personally wasn't a fan. The lava cake was good. The meal also came with a glass of house wine. Infective Incredible value, great quantity, I will go back and actually order sushi..

    Warm chocolate cake

    Nice setting and good food. Nicely decorated dining room in an open space. Interesting decor made for lots of looking around. Service wasn't amazing but it was good. Everyone was friendly and responsive when we asked. Food was very good. Tartare three ways was excellent, one of my favorite dishes in a while. And it is a unique way of presenting tartare. Sushi four ways: salmon was another interesting and great dish. Nice to have four different preparations of my preferred fish instead of some I like and some I don't. For dessert the warm chocolate cake was nice, very rich and tasty, but dessert is t the strongest dishes here.

    Decent spot for sushi maki lunch and bento boxes. My eel avocado was tasty but a little skimpy on the fish. The salmon and yellowtail was good. The tuna could be better. The bento boxes was great. I liked both the hibachi salmon and the teriyaki salmon. Portions are not bad, and I liked both that it came with mini cheese cake bites for dessert.

    Excellent and delicious Japanese food! So fresh, tasty and I am a returning customer. Service was great and our waitress was attentive! Ambiance is nice and was able to enjoy the surprised boat above us.

    Wonderful meal with attentive service. Only down side was the Rock Shrimp Tempura not being a true tempura or it was downed in sauce. Still tasty but not what I expect when ordering tempura.

    Black diamond roll with foie gras
    Kristina C.

    We really enjoyed our dinner at Mito. The staff greeted us immediately when we arrived and our waitress was quite attentive, which we appreciated. The vibe and atmosphere was great for a date night, special occasion or a family dinner. The drinks were very tasty. I had a coconut cocktail (I can't remember the name), which was DELICIOUS!! Regarding food we had the following things: rock shrimp tempura, petit filet mignon, black diamond roll with foie gras, bluefin tuna crudo, black truffle wagyu fried rice, scallop truffle canapes, miso sea bass in pumpkin puree and green tea crepe cake for dessert. We especially loved the petit filet mignon, black diamond roll with foie gras, and bluefin tuna crudo. The reason I dropped a star in my rating is due to a couple of the plates were slightly disappointing. We did not think the pumpkin puree went well with the miso sea bass. We would've preferred the dish without the puree. We thought the wagyu fried rice was a little lackluster. And, I've had better green tea crepe cakes elsewhere. This cake was a little denser than I expected. In any case, we really enjoyed our experience overall and plan to come back to try out more of Mito's menu.

    Ordered two California rolls with spicy mayo on the side to go comes in a really pretty bag absolutely delicious very fresh will definitely be coming back here to try other stuff. Highly recommend!

    lobster guacamole
    Paula L.

    it has been a while since I came here and I did not remember what I loved about the place. So, I just ordered with my heart and I wound up ordering the same things. I ordered six years ago when I used to come here all the time with an ex boyfriend. We got the lobster guacamole with scallion pancake as an appetizer. We also ordered a side of chips to go with it. This is such a delicious thing. It's worth a trip to this restaurant just for this appetizer. I was driving and my friend ordered a drink. I took one sip of it just to see what it tasted like. It was so yummy. It was their version of an old-fashioned. A buttery old-fashioned. We ordered three rolls to share. We got a yellow tail scallion roll, a mango Hawaii roll and another roll that I forgot the title of, but it says something about the number four. Everything was really delicious. We really loved loved loved that mango Hawaii roll. Simple perfection. I will definitely be coming back real soon. The place is beautiful and the staff is excellent. Our waitress Maggie was perfect. She was helpful and very nice. What a great experience all around. We left with big smiles and were very very satisfied.

    I've been past this place several times & finally decided to give it a try. First time around , Drinks I had a Lychee Martini, hubby a Coconut saketini both very good nice & strong. We started with the Scallion pancakes they were so good we also had a Mito roll this was great. Main meal we tried Petite filet & the Mongolian chicken , both very good nice tasting steak as well as the chicken good tasting sauce. Next time around we came with some friends , Wonton soup was good .. on the Rolls Fantastic four, good combination. The seared tuna & shrimp tempura both good as well. Very good Mongolian beef & General Tao's chicken, good with the rice. Nice looking place, service was good & prices are reasonable, we enjoyed our time & meal here.

    Steak. Delicious

    I think I just found my new favorite casual sushi spot around the Forest Hills neighborhood! As…read moresomeone with a severe gluten allergy, I was really excited to try out this place because I saw a lot of reviews online praising for the way the staff members handle food allergies. I went in right around opening time (noon) on the weekend - the outside is a bit unassuming and partially covered by awning but the inside was brightly lit and the lady at the register (I wish I asked for her name) was incredibly warm and welcoming. She was super enthusiastic about helping me identify which rolls would be safe for me to have. They also have a grab-and-go section where certain popular rolls and sides have already been prepped, but as long as you're willing to wait, the chefs are more than happy to make a fresh batch of a specific roll, even if there are already packed portions of the same exact roll in the grab-and-go section. I thought this was a really thoughtful approach to appeasing all customers. I ended up going with a Philadelphia roll and a Mango Tango specialty roll, which contained a combination of salmon and tuna, mango, avocado, and cucumbers. The ingredients were very fresh and I think the prices are quite reasonable. Without even asking, I was given gluten-free tamari sauce instead of normal soy sauce. The combination of the restaurant's extensive menu and how kind the staff were made this a really wonderful experience - I was very satisfied with my order and definitely see myself coming back again and again whenever I have a sushi craving. The only downside is that this is really more so a grab-and-go spot in general, as there were only two small tables in the entire store. As a heads up, they also prefer to take cash instead of card.
