Assorted sushi pieces - amazing
Melissa P.

We came here for dinner and everything was amazing. It is expensive but the quality of the food is worth it. We started with the 4 pieces of crispy rice (scallop, salmon, tuna and wagyu) and they were all amazing. My favorite was probably the tuna and wagyu. We also got a caviar nugget and this was great to try but we probably wouldn't get it again. We then got a variety of sushi pieces and they were all amazing, fresh, and great sauces. Lastly, we got the soft serve with every topping on the side and it was the perfect ending to the meal. We would definitely come back.

Robota- chicken, steak and eggplant and mushroom
Concetta D.

Came in on a busy Friday night and managed to get a spot with no reservation. Not something I would overly recommend, I think we got lucky! It was a delicious intimate dining experience. The food comes to your table as it ready and I don't think you can really go wrong with anything on the menu. Each dish and bite was better one after the other! For 2, we had the following: 2 hand rolls, 4 sashimi, 1 crispy rice and 3 robota. This was just enough. We maybe could have done one more thing but overall we were really satisfied. The hand rolls are delectable. Super fresh and packed with all the tasty goodness as you make your way through the roll. They also have a wide selection of sashimi, all of which were amazing and carefully articulated with the most flavor packed garnishments. For the robota we went with the chef selection. The steak was so tender you could break it apart with chop sticks. The chicken was also delicious and packed with flavor. When I go back, im just diving into the chefs special in all of the sections, it's really the way to go! Highly recommend for some great Asian eats in Rye!

Cozy and intimate place. It looks like it seats 50 people including bar area. I want to give it a 3.5 star, but it is a place worth going. Open kitchen. It's clean. Food was good. Some dishes better than others. We like the sake. The appetizer was good - blister shishito peppers - The nigiri was good - the sushi rice and pairing with the fish was a good combo. Robata was good. Salmon and pear was nicely done and paired together, wagyu beef was a little tough, mushroom and eggplant was ok. The beef and veggie- needed the pairing sauce. Temaki/ hand roll, we had 3 rolls salmon, tuna and scallops. They were ok. The fish was overly sauced. The crispy rice - beef and scallop. Typically my favorite, but the rice was overly crispy, made it too chewy.

Otoro hand roll, 2 smoked black cod and tuna belly pieces each
Zoha M.

My husband and I visited this restaurant on a Sunday night, and it was pretty busy but we were able to get a 745 reservation. It's definitely an upscale and intimate restaurant, and the fish is extremely high-quality. We tried a variety of dishes off the menu, including otoro hand rolls, black cod and fatty tuna belly Nigiri, crispy rice tuna - every single bite was extremely fresh, and melted like butter. The chicken bao buns were delicious with crunchy crispy chicken and a soft bun. The steak skewer was smoky, charred and salty. Overall, the food was absolutely delicious, but I would recommend reviewing the prices. You do need to order quite a bit to have a substantial meal, and most of the sushi on the menu is sold per piece. Definitely worth trying and I plan on going back soon!

10 piece nigiri and salmon bento
Eri K.

I came here with my family on a Friday night for dinner. It was pretty busy, we initially got seated outside but it was quite windy, so we requested if we could actually sit inside and they were really nice about it and seated us inside. The inside felt cozy and intimate. The food came shortly after and it was delicious! We shared the 10 piece nigiri and bento box as well as some hand rolls and they were all amazing. I think my favorite was the spicy scallop hand roll, but I'd recommend all of them any day! 10/10 absolutely coming back.

Random Restaurant Post work drink enjoyed @oko.rye . It looks deceivingly Japanese, but the food options here are Japanese-inspired and created by non-Japanese. Knowing that at the onset, I did enjoy the generous servings of crunchy and heavily battered tempura, chef's special set of "his and hers" nigiri set (for those with a companion/date, two of every kind) and their affordable "Teishoko" meal aka Chef's Meal that has the entire food group covered. Best of all, I enjoyed the restaurant's location in Rye right beside a good-size library with a big lawn and the warm and cleverly designed interiors. Located in Rye, this place is family-friendly despite the bar. Young kids seem at home here #curious_eater #westchesterny

Sushi set

Food 6/10 Honestly it's quite solid seafood, but some of the flavor combinations for the omakase set just did not hit and did not make sense. The Nigori was quite yummy, and paired well with the sashimi. Not the freshest seafood I've had, but it was still very solid, albeit being a bit overpriced. The tempura was lovely though. Atmosphere 7/10 Very bustling little restaurant in Rye, despite it being 8pm on a Thursday night. Super cute interior, clean cut and minimalistic. Service 10/10 We sat at the bar and I loved our bartender. She was super helpful and let me try a sake that I did not end up ordering. It was quite busy, but she was trying her best and I really appreciated that.

Clementina
Gen C.

Picked this place to try for my birthday dinner. Place is modern, had a bar with seating area and there were some outdoor seating as well. To start, I ordered "one knight only" drink and it was refreshing. For the table we opted to order a few dishes to share since they were small plates. Food was incredible, everything was so fresh and tasty. Presentation was great. My favorites were the pork belly buns (so crispy!) and the spicy tuna crispy. But all the food was amazing and the drinks too. To end I ordered "Clementina" and it was so good and had that real clementine fresh flavor. Service was great, all the staff were amazing, helpful and accommodating. I recommend making reservations. Would definitely recommend this place for any occasion, they even have a kids bento box.

Fogama - Japanese eggplant dish!

I was not expecting to have such a spectacular experience at such an unassuming spot, but our…read moreentire dinner experience was incredible. Located on a scenic little road, you'll find Fogama tucked away between other shops and restaurants. When you walk in the restaurant looks quite small, but they have another seating and bar area upstairs to accommodate more guests. I visited with a large group for a work dinner (we had reservations) and we were immediately seated immediately. The waitresses were attentive throughout our time here. One of the main things that immediately impressed me was the wine list. I was excited to see Sancerre on the expansive list and immediately ordered. The food itself was INCREDIBLE. We ordered a mix of hot and cold appetizers, classic rolls, and specialty roles. There is truly something on their menu for everyone, and we all raved about the freshness and quality of all of the dishes. Just a great experience overall. I would definitely visit again when I'm in the area.

Very nice family vibe. They love engaging the kids and always remember us each time we come. At the…read moresame time the place would work well for a date night as well. The sushi is quite good, never a question on quality or flavor. The price point is perhaps a little higher than I'd like to spend on a neighborhood sushi spot, so we go on a more of an occasional basis. The standard tuna, salmon, yellow tail rolls are great. Specialty rolls are fun too. They are large and don't feel overpriced as they often do at many sushi spots. They usually have an exaustive specials menu which is fun.

*Look on clipp.com for coupons!*…read more My favorite Chinese restaurant of all time is basically right next door so I never was compelled to try Aria considering I don't eat sushi, but I got a coupon in the mail and decided to try it with my mom. First off just to note, it is absolutely FREEZING in there. Probably good for the sushi station that is right out where the tables are but definitely plan on bringing a sweatshirt. I ordered the dumpling soup which was really good, nice and hot in a cold restaurant on a rainy day. My only complaint about it was that they didn't pull apart the cilantro leaves and I got a big mouthful with a sprig of it and it was unpleasant, even as someone who likes cilantro. A little goes a long way! I liked the beef negimaki, naturally its a bit hard to eat and chew but that's how it always is. The flavor was good, nothing above and beyond. Surprisingly, I was much more partial to my mom's chicken tempura than what I ordered and I would definitely order that instead next time, I really liked the flavor of the breading. I was too full and cold to get a dessert but they had tartufo and fried ice cream which I'd definitely come back to try! It isn't the best Asian restaurant in the area in my opinion but not bad!

Unpleasant experience. Waitress had some sort of attitude. Teriyaki Chicken was like rubber. The…read moremiso soup smelt like a dirty fish tank. The tuna was grey and light red. The menu had sauce and food stains all over it. The spicy tuna filling smelt disgusting. I know good sushi and hospitality when I see it. This place lacked both. Save yourself the headache and don't go to this place. It also just felt DIRTY in the dining area.
