The menu offers classic Japanese cuisine with some unique offerings. Love that their menu is packed with photos. The service is friendly and warm. I was welcomed the moment I walked in, and the service stayed attentive and efficient throughout my stay. I decided on the pork katsu rice bowl. The pork cutlet was crispy yet tender. Everything tasted noticeably fresh. It was served over rice with caramelized onions and an egg. The flavors were sweet, tangy, and umami. Portions are decent too - I left with leftovers. Overall, good food and service. Oh! They serve their plum wine in the cutest carafe.

Cuisine: 8 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 7 Overall: 8 Another Thai owned Japanese restaurant specializing in izakaya style cuisine in Bushwick. 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.

I had an excellent dinner while staying at a nearby hotel for a business trip. The service was…read moreattentive but unobtrusive. The tonkotsu broth in the ramen was rich and comforting and the ramen egg was cooked and marinated to perfection. Both of my sashimi selections were fresh and beautifully presented.

Had such a fun experience at Wanpaku, NYC's first Cambodian-Japanese izakaya!…read more I really enjoyed seeing how they bring together Khmer flavors with Japanese techniques. Their Cambodian Teishoku lunch sets start at $17, with options including Angkor Hanger Steak, Kampot Cod, Charoeng Chicken, Paripari Tofu, and sandos. I love the seaweed rice that came with the lunch set! They also have ramen made with chewy mochi-style noodles, plus their Ochoko Don, which were both such unique additions to the menu. The space has a cool izakaya atmosphere, and it's a great spot to come with friends for food and drinks. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for something different in NYC!

So aggressively healthy with their seamoss, spirulina, whey and collagen infusions, priced between $11 and $22.. naturally, I decided to yolo. The service staff was kind, offered to sit me and my daughter down on one of their many patio tables to drink our smoothies and people watch Williamsburg in their $400 Alo overalls while being funemployed. The smoothies are genuinely fantastic. My daughter for the berry blast (I think) and I got their Aura New York Glam. With no added sugars or sweeteners, it was delicious. My daughter almost never finishes her smoothies but this one went down like water. It was good enough to inspire me to begin a wellness journey starting like right now. I will be back to try their other smoothies when my bank account stops giving me the death stare.

I had the egg salad sando, and I was so excited for it, but I think it was just lacking something, I couldn't quite pin. Maybe if they sprinkled a little bit of salt/pepper on top of the jammy egg, that would've helped. I feel like that part was super bland. The bread was sooo good though, probably the best part of the sandwich. I had heard about this place initially for its "erewhon dupe" smoothies. I had the New York glam, and it was delish for the first few sips and then towards the end, it just got really rich and sweet. Overall, cute spot and the food is very aesthetic, but for me personally, it fell a little short of expectations.

This place feels like it needs to pick a lane with the food the offering is too all over the place. Upon walking up to the restaurant there is a BIG sushi flag, a little further up the block on the corner there is a sign that says sushi and szechuan.... completely different countries..... completely different cuisines with nothing in common. It seems like they are trying to be too many things. Sushi was ok. The rock shrimp tempura for $16 was a soggy overpriced mess. It was soggy and very disappointing. The staff was very nice but are trying to booster their experience and reviews with free appetizer and ice cream. I imagine all the 5 star review have been paid for. While I ALWAYS appreciate good hospitality I would prefer to skip the free stuff and just have better food. We did order the "special Japanese fluke" that the waitress high impressed on us. We were told it was very special and hard to get. I don't know the cost of it but it was muddle with truffle oil on it. No good piece of fresh clean fish imo should be ruined with truffle oil or a jalapeno slice. I felt bamboozled on that dish. I would suggest they take down some of the signage which makes it look cheap and confusing. Concentrate on ventalation of the space as lot of deep frying was going on that gave odor. Do one type of food and do it right. Nice people but I wouldn't go back or recommend it.

We shared the Grown-Up Happy Meal and the Grande Nigiri, which was honestly the perfect amount for us. The Happy Meal came with miso soup and, true to its name, it definitely made us happy.

The waitress serving us was friendly. You're given an iPad to browse their menu - I always find it helpful when there are pictures, so you have an idea what you're ordering. The soft-shell crab appetizer was my favorite item. Big portions, very crispy and honestly one of the better soft shell crabs I've had. The grande sashimi offered a good variety of fish. Each piece had a topping/garnish with added more flavor. I thought the size of the sashimi slices were decent too - good to share with someone. However, the rolls were very disappointing. The issue was with the rice - it was very gooey, mostly likely from being overcooked. While the spicy salmon had a decent filling (though rice still terrible), we didn't taste much eel in the eel roll. Maybe it was a bad night for rice, as the sashimi and crab was good.
