Sushi Yu lunch special 2024
Marie S.

Delivery was quick & efficient. The sushi sashimi lunch special was good, the portion size was fine. A few pieces of sushi had to be discarded due to quality issues. As far lunch specials go, there are better options in the area. Average lunch special overall.

Crazy deals! The lunch special is 2 rolls, edamame or shumai, soup and salad for only $11!! Or 3 rolls for $14!! This is like pre-pandemic prices and the food was fresh.

Feast in Summer
Vivian T.

Feast in Summer One of the wonders of the reopened City is the vibrant scene of restaurants new and seasoned. Sushi Yu next to Prospect Park in Brooklyn is one of them. The delicacy of the sashimi depends not only on the in house preparation, but also on the coordination of international shipping from places such as Asia. Chef Tony has good news for his clients. The restaurant is reopened with flair. Master Chefs Andy and Tony set the tone for the cuisine Japanese. Additionally, new chefs have joined in. Their consistent effort has brought the summer feast to a peak. I for one, have been impressed again and again by the beauty and taste of what is in front of me. "Should I devour it?" is always a challenging question to myself. Recently, the sumptuous portions of salmon, tuna, slender long shrimp sat in the garden of red and yellow veggies on the porcelain plate. It was accentuated by a sake bottle with a surprise green leaf. The imaginative hand of the Chef with glasses had enlivened the pieces of vermilion, burgundy and translucent cream in the freshly sculpted Chirashi Sushi.

Grilled squid appetizer
Vaughn F.

Came in for sushi this afternoon, just missing the 4 PM cutoff for lunch specials. My girlfriend and I decided to share a few items, and we quickly put in an order. A couple mosquitoes buzzed around our back table, so we moved to a booth at the front. The miso soup ($2) came out first. Hot and robust, perhaps a touch sweet. Plenty of seaweed and tofu. Next, the grilled squid appetizer ($10). The dish I received seemed a few rings smaller than those in other people's photos; slightly disappointing. Still, the squid was cooked nicely, the texture was excellent, and I liked the flavor a lot. The sauce was poured on a bit heavy, but overall, decent starter. We ordered 2 pcs. unagi sashimi ($7), and received a couple small strips of eel. Tasted fine, nothing special, could've done with a larger serving. The salmon avocado roll ($5.50) was similarly middle-of-the-road. Overall, average sushi experience, bordering on meh. I might come back for a lunch special to try a few other menu items. Next time, I'll wear long pants, in case there are more mosquitoes.

I order fried salmon I received this an absolute disgrace, plus forgot my eel sauce I couldn't enjoy my dry sweet potato roll. I came back to chef not wanting to give me a refund customer service on 0 he told me to to fuck offf

Just had terrible lunch sushi delivered...the edamame were tough and tasted funny, and the seaweed on the rolls was chewy. Pass.

One of my favorite parts was that when you're almost done, you can ask them to pour soup into your bowl, which basically turns it into a whole second dish! Such a fun way to finish the meal. We also tried the wagyu, which was really good, but honestly, the wagyu rice stole the show for me! Overall, great food, service, and ambiance. The restaurant was packed when we went, so I'd definitely recommend making a reservation ahead of time!

The tables are a bit small and tight though, so they brought out our food in courses. We started off with the Kaishin Don ($45), which was perfectly plated over a bed of rice. This one came with a good amount of uni, which was much appreciated. Then we had the Ozakaya Donburi Set ($49), which is such a fun one. You have a raw egg to mix into your seafood bowl accompanied with some pickled veggies and sliced sashimi. Once you've ate more than half your bowl, you can get a broth that finished cooking your fish and turning the rice into porridge. The broth is savory and tangy, which gives it such a nice and refreshing flavor. We enjoyed both of these dishes a lot and it was fun to make your own handrolls. Then came the Mentai Pasta ($19), which is sadly one of the worst things I've ever ate. Not only was there barely any Mentai flavor, but the mayonnaise completely overpowered everything. I couldn't get over how I might as well have ate a spoonful of mayo on its own; that's how rich and heavy this dish was. The bacon was overcooked as well but somewhat cut all the mayo. I even tried to add some soy sauce but there was no saving this pasta. We ended up tossing the rest of the dish and I am not one to waste food. I even tried to complain to the waitress but she just ignored it. It was unfortunate because the other dishes we had were amazing. Luckily we were still able to end on a good note as we ordered the Oshiruko ($12) for dessert. This came with two scoops of matcha ice cream, grilled mochi, and red bean. Everything went well together and the matcha was strong. It's wild how good and bad some of the dishes were here. Definitely stick to the sushi and rice bowl dishes and whatever you do, DO NOT order the mentai pasta unless you love mayo.

It's been open for a few years, so clearly it has a good enough formula to keep the neighborhood happy. I have been here once before, but returned last week after dining several meals at Tomoni in Jackson Heights. Apparently, the owners are friends. Nonetheless, I needed to make the comparison. After my first few bites of their Tora Don and Chirashi Don, it was clear that this restaurant has the better quality seafood. Each slice of sashimi had vibrant colors, clean taste, and the proper texture. Tomoni is not bad, but fall slightly short of this caliber. With that said, there is an even farther gap between their rice quality. Though Tora is very good, Tomoni produces nearly perfect texture and acidity for my taste buds. Other than the best omakase restaurants in NYC, Tomoni shines as one of the best versions of sushi rice in the five boroughs. Service is good and space is cute. If I have a craving for some decent Japanese food, I would drive 20 minutes here for a meal anytime.

While wandering through Bed-Stuy on a weekday evening, my husband and I decided to try out this new…read moresushi spot. It wasn't terrible--but I had a lot of mixed feelings. Food: 3/5 I'm a huge sushi fan, so I was excited when I saw a deluxe sashimi set on the menu. Unfortunately, it didn't quite hit the mark. The scallop was thinly sliced and lacked the rich texture I was hoping for. The salmon and other cuts were decent, but short and oddly shaped--chunky yet small, which made the whole presentation feel a bit off for something labeled deluxe. We also tried to branch out and ordered the short rib entree. For $21, it was shockingly small--definitely a single-person portion, not sharable. I added extra ikura to a salmon donburi bowl for $2, but it was barely a teaspoon's worth--just enough to say it was there. Oddly, the salmon slices in that bowl were thinner than the sashimi we had just eaten, and overall, it left me still hungry even after sharing a maki roll. Lastly, my husband ordered a green salad, which somehow took the entire meal service to arrive. When it finally came, it was just plain romaine, cucumbers, radish, and dressing. For a dinner that clocked in at over $150 (after tip), we definitely left underwhelmed. Service: 3/5 This part wasn't bad, just confusing. We were seated quickly, but the pacing of the meal was strange. Our seaweed salad and soups came out promptly, but the green salad came last, after the hot dishes and nearly after my husband finished eating. Also, a small thing--but when I'm paying $16 for four oysters, I want to know what kind they are. The menu just said "West Coast oysters," but our server couldn't tell us the variety or origin. Not a huge deal, but it added to a general lack of polish that didn't quite match the pricing. I don't think I'd return. For the price, there are better sushi options in Brooklyn with higher quality, better portions, and clearer service. Still, I appreciate new spots opening up in the neighborhood, and I'm always happy to try something new. Hopefully they refine the menu and service with time.

This fit the bill exactly. We started with the salmon belly carpaccio which I'd say isn't really a carpaccio because the salmon isn't sliced as thinly as you'd expect. But! I mention that just to set expectations. Nomenclature aside, it's an excellent appetizer. Served in a truffle and ponzu sauce, the salmon is lightly seared which yields two different textures to the fish. It practically melts in your mouth. Highly recommend this dish. For my entree I went with the trio don, which is 6 pieces of sashimi served over your choice of plain or sushi rice (sushi rice for me). The fish was fresh and flavorful. The portion was perfect for me. My boyfriend ordered a yellowtail roll and enjoyed that as well. We also shared a carafe of the cold house sake. I'd definitely come back and try more items on the menu. It's great for sharing and trying new dishes. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the prices were very reasonable.
