3.5 stars. Good service and pleasant, simple dining space. Okay sushi. They have lunch specials/deals every day, even weekends. The quality of the fish is just alright. It's not too pricey, and the food quality and price do check out. It's really not bad for the price, but I'm not sure if I'd come back given the many sushi options nearby. The fish pieces (eel, salmon) seemed a little dry, and the avocado they used was chalky and not ripe, and it threw off the texture of a lot of our rolls. We tried the Salmon Oshinko, Salmon Cucumber, Eel Cucumber regular rolls and the Amsterdam Roll, Dragon Roll, Sunny Day special rolls. They are pretty light on the sauces (eel sauce, mayo sauce, etc.), which can be a good or bad thing depending on your preferences. The roll I liked the least and wouldn't recommend was the Sunny Day. It had no taste and I didn't like the very mushy texture of all the fish pieces (tuna, salmon, yellowtail). They all blended together into one mush. The Salmon Oshinko wasn't bad. The oshinko pickled radish has a stronger, sweeter flavor, but I thought it went well with the salmon. I also have not tried or seen that combo anywhere else, so it was refreshing. I wouldn't mind coming here again, but if I had a choice, I think I'd try another place for sushi! read more

Got the lunch special with two special rolls and a salad (you can pick miso soup or salad). I got two rainbow rolls for my order. Total was around $28 with tax. It's a pretty good deal - very filling and fresh sushi. Love the dressing that comes with the salad. I will def be back! I got it for pickup and it was ready right on time. Friendly staff! Nice ambiance instead of you want to dine in- plenty of seating. read more

Come here, you will not regret it!! They have a buy one get one free poke bowl deal for the summer. Your choice of rice and protein (tuna/salmon/spicy tuna/spicy salmon) and toppings (edamame, mango, avocado, seaweed salad, corn and roe). The fish is soooo FRESH! The salmon is so buttery and the tuna is amazing too, super soft. Some places the tuna can be kind of mushy due to being frozen too long but this was great and no fishy taste at all. Toppings are also super fresh and the sauce was great. Just look at the amount of fish. The bowl is massive, I took my leftovers to go so I got 2 meals out of it. Service is really good, and food came out fast. Ambiance is good too! More of a casual place with a sushi bar area so lots of seating. Highly highly recommend. read more

I'm usually pretty skeptical about these types of sushi places especially during dinner service because it just never feels as if there's enough food for the price. Rather just go to a sushi buffet instead. This place met that description although the service was pretty great. I ordered the Dragon Roll and was extremely disappointed. The eel was very soft and flimsy and the roll itself was quite small - definitely could not fill a person up. The roll was also mostly rice and there weren't a ton of other ingredients in it. Overall, would not recommend and maybe get the House Special Roll instead which I tried and is definitely more worth it as they put an entire tempura shrimp in there. Probably would not come back again... read more

I have to say, bang for your Buck? This is the place to get your Japanese fix. Bento boxes? Cheap and plentiful, and decent rolls. Many places in the area only have specials during lunch, but they have specials all day. But generally places will give you soup OR salad, you get both in addition to seaweed salad, spring roll...And all the sides before getting to your entree. I've never eaten there, only take out. Delivery has been top notch. No complaints there. read more

Wow. Such friendly staff here. Very welcoming and very hospitable. I ordered the sushi nest and a couple two rolls and this has become my go to place for sushi on the upper west side. 91st and Amsterdam location. Lee, the manager , and her staff make you feel at home and never rushed. read more

Reviewing for takeout. Have ordered the chirashi from Miyako for takeout and was pleasantly surprised with the quantity and quality of the fish. For just over $20 a pretty good deal for sushi in NYC. Will order again. Taking a star off as I have also ordered the dinner special rolls from here which I found to be just OK. read more

Agree - Miyako Sushi is one of the best lunch values for sushi. I searched all over & finally found this restaurant. What a great deal! The lunch menu currently has specials priced between 8 to 9 dollars (plus tax) and includes a nice range of choices. Included in the lunch special selections : chicken, salmon, beef & tofu teriyaki and negamaki plus many more! Bento boxes too. Lots of choices. My lunch deal included rice and a choice of soup or salad. This week I tried: 1) Salmon Teriyaki. Overall very good, included vegetables plus rice & a salad. The salad was very average, but for 9.00$ ?? I'm not complaining. Would definitely order again. 2) Lunch Any 3 Rolls. Priced at under 12$ that comes out to 4 dollars a roll. Had the salmon avocado roll and it was fine. Especially for the price and portion sizes. Is it super fancy ? No. But a good value? Yes. Overall, can't beat the price for the lunch menu and portion sizes. Definitely a great place for the budget conscious diner. read more

So overall, it's cheap, and the house roll is very tasty. But be warned, some of the fish didn't taste fresh and they messed up our order. When my girlfriend picked up the order, they were not very patient and gave her a sautéed eggplant and sushi roll dinner without double checking her name or number; they simply pushed the order on her. When she got home, we discovered it was wrong; after a quick phone call they agreed to take it back. We got our correct order, and they let us keep the wrong sushi roll. Everything was meh, except the house roll which was really good. Wish they were more consistent but for the price, not terrible. read more

I take back my previous review, they might have had an off day. Came here for lunch, the lunch special is an amazing value, three rolls or sushi or sashimi special and its under $20. The rolls are fresh, its on the small side but its probably the best value in this area. The people who work here are also really amazingly extremely nice and go to great length to know their customers and have a lot of regulars they know by name and meal preference. It's feels like a great part of the community. read more

I think I discovered my new go to sushi lunch place. Ordered a sushi lunch for $14, and I'm very happy! The fish are very high quality especially the salmon which is buttery smooth. Other fishes are also very fresh. (I don't think they aged their fish. I'd be surprised if they do at $14. so 'fresh' is probably the right description here.) There rice is also cooked very well, I can feel a bit of a rough texture on the rice, indicating that this may not be koshihikari rice, but more like Kakuho rose or Nishiki. It worked well tho. (The owner can confirms whether I'm right about the rice.) If there's one critique it's that the rice is way under seasoned. I don't feel any vinegar in the rice. So you gotta put a bit more seasoning to improve, in my opinion. Also the rice is a tiny bit too much. I usually like a lot of rice in my sushi, but this is probably 10% too much rice. It'd be perfect if the chef can adjust the rice down. To summarize, at $14, this is a steal. 4 stars - will recommend! read more

The salmon nigiri here was delicious - the fish was fresh and thick cut, and it was decorated beautifully with slices of lemon around it. I had the chicken teriyaki lunch bento box, and it came with a lot of food! The miso soup was delicious, although it could use a little more seaweed and tofu. The salad was fresh, and I appreciate that they put the dressing on the side. The fried shrimp siu mai was not bad, and I loved the california roll, though it could use a little more rice. The chicken teriyaki was delicious - it was crisp along the edges, and the sauce was flavorful without being too overbearing. read more

I had someone bring me back takeout from this place. They had the sashimi dinner bento box. I did a double take when they told me that a bento box was just over $20 and comes with a sushi roll, shumai, salad, soup, rice and spring roll. There were multiple pieces of at least four kinds of fish in the sashimi and it tasted fresh, even though it was the end of the day. It's more than safe to say that I thought this meal was a great value. read more

I love this place. When it's warmer their doors are open and a nice breeze flows in. Everything on the menu is priced well. We got three rolls, seaweed salad, veggie tempura and a beer all for under $45. On the UWS, that's a deal. It's not the best sushi you've ever had, but it's good and fills the craving. Add a cold $5 beer and an nyc summer breeze and you've the perfect combo for a weekday meal. read more

Great Value! Miyako has become a go-to for Japanese delivery. The basic rolls start at $5 and the speciality rolls are in the $12 - $13 range. I like getting the hamachi kama, which is a pretty generous portion. It's fried, so you get some nice meaty, fatty and crispy bites. The katsudon is also a winner and another hefty portion. Yummy Japanese food without having to splurge! read more

My go to takeout sushi spot for years. On seamless they have great combo deals. Their special rolls are amazing. Love the house special roll, the sweetheart roll, spicy tuna, crab money bags, and also their shrimp teriyaki (solo or in a bento box) is awesome. Only warning is that sometimes the bento box gets the teriyaki sauce on the sushi roll it comes with which is a bit unfortunate. Overall, my favorite takeout sushi spot on the upper east or upper west side! read more

Pretty standard. I dropped by Miyako for a bowl of soup and was not disappointed. I ordered a bowl of soup with udon noodles, and it really hit the spot. For one, the bowl was HUMONGOUS and came packed with plenty of strips of chicken and two sticks of shrimp tempura. There was so much soup that I actually had to ask the waitress to pack the rest for the road, which is very rare for me. The service was pretty much on point - I cannot complain about much with Miyako. It seems like the restaurant is a pretty standard in and out kind of place. Many of the folks who came into the restaurant were making takeout order. However, the restaurant is nice enough to sit down and eat. read more

3 rolls + miso soup for $13? Don't mind if I do. Definitely stop by here for their lunch deal. It's fabulous. We each ordered the 3 roll combo and picked options out of the selection available. There's a good amount to choose from for a lunch special. I feel most places have limited options at this hour. Everything came out pretty quickly and we were very satisfied. read more

Pretty cheap Japanese restaurant. Stopped in a little late with a friend while walking by and we were pleasantly surprised by the food! Both got the dinner bento ($19 for basically 2 meals for us) - one pork katsu and the other shrimp tempura. The shrimp tempura was actually great! Katsu was fine but a little dry. Miso soup wasn't too salty and everything else on the plate was pretty good! Didn't try any of the sushi but they had some really great combo deals. Will definitely be back to try more! read more

Fastest delivery ever--it is Sunday eve, Easter Sunday...so factor that in...But, 4 rolls of sushi arrived in LESS THAN 15 MINUTES!!!

Used to order delivery from this place a lot more than I should have. Their service and dishes started out awesome and rapidly went downhill. Food was pretty good until the last time I ordered and received halfway closed rolls, lukewarm food and a nasty attitude on the phone when addressing my displeasure. Good thing this was just an alternative to a local favorite. I confirmed the dept of health rating and that put the last nail in the coffin. Never again! read more

(reposting review under correct restaurant name) After a few months spent away from the city in what is essentially a wasteland when it comes to sushi, Miyako tastes like no less than the ambrosia of the gods. I will never take excellent neighborhood sushi places like this for granted ever again! Miyako would be considered the creme de la creme of sushi in many parts of the country. It ain't fancy (for NYC), but the fish used is impeccably fresh, the rice excellent, maki well rolled. Chicken katsu comes perfectly crisp outside, tender and juicy inside, served with fragrant, fresh lemon. Portion sizes are generous and prices are shockingly low for such high quality food. And the delivery folks are extremely nice. When I compare apples to apples and not Miyako to Uchu, I can't think of a single thing I don't love about this restaurant. Except maybe that I can't get it cloned and have one in my neighborhood, or at least town, in CT. read more

Unfortunately, I have found 2 staples in my food from here. The first one I wondered if it came from my bag and I wasn't careful. However it was in the sushi roll. The second, that happened today could not have been me. So that's 2 staples in to-go meals in the span of 6 months. Decent take out sushi. Eat at your own discretion. read more

My daughter was visiting a friend whose family has an apartment near here. They recommended we try this place (they have been here before). I love sushi but was nervous to try a place in Manhattan fearing the prices would be outrageous. Well, what a pleasant surprise!! The prices were reasonable (as low as NJ!) and the food was delicious! They had a nice variety of appetizers and rolls. The only, minor complaint I have, if any, is that I have had rolls with larger pieces of fish, but for the price and quality they provided, I am not at all dissatisfied. I would definitely go back! The staff was also very friendly. read more
