    Spider roll
    Marian S.

    Not all sushi is created equal, but this place is pretty fantastic! Great gyoza, perfectly cooked, and the spider roll is absolutely divine. I will always be in the mood for Tenzan 89!

    Tempura Bento Box

    Extremely friendly staff. Very reasonably priced. Tasty and many selections. Nice decor. Great relaxing vibe.

    Godzilla Roll, Spicy Crunch Roll, Salmon Belly a la carte

    Food is always great and comes out so fast! Amazing staff--always very friendly. The fish is fresh and the miso soup is amazing.

    Quality has gone down over the years.. I just ordered dinner with dessert and it had a chemical aftertaste which I noticed after a few bites...as it started burning the back of my throat. Also noticed a hole on the box that the item came in....not sure what happened but never ordering from them again! There are WAY too many great restaurants in this city to take another chance with a potential health hazard.

    Sweetheart roll and Sake Roll

    This is hands down the best sushi place on the UES. I order delivery from here at least once a week and the sushi is always so fresh and delicious. The service at the restaurant is also amazing and everyone there is so nice. I've tried most of the other places in the area and no where ever comes close to Tenzan. Highly recommend the fire island roll, sweetheart roll, sake roll and all of their classic rolls.

    One of the best sushi dine-in places, which i always go with my friends! Guess what??? they've special happy hour promotion 4-9 (only $3 beer, $3 hot sake, $4.5 wine), WOW i might go every week !!!

    Sashimi appetizer $11.50 and Maki B $16.50

    Service: Delivery Quantity: Good Food: Sashimi appetizer $ 11.50 / Maki B $16.50 Fast and friendly delivery service, I waited less than 30 minutes. Sashimi appetizer comes with 8 pieces of assorted fish, which I received salmon, tuna, and whitefish. Maki B comes with California roll, eel cucumber roll and salmon avocado roll with choice of ginger salad or miso soup. I picked ginger salad. Love their rolls, unlike other sushi restaurants, wrapped fish in thick rice. Their fish was wrapped in a thin layer of rice just the way I like it. Fresh fish, fast delivery, and fair price during COVID time, I am very thankful for their service and quality of food. I will definitely order again.

    Rainbow Roll, Toro Scallion Roll, Spider Roll, Miso Soup
    Macy B.

    The presentation is beautiful and pricing is alright. Glad to have gone with the more expensive rolls since the signature rolls are bigger and more filli g. To go orders come with a little soy sauce trays which makes it easy to dip. Pick up was seamless and as you enter the restaurant, you are enveloped in the smell of fresh seafood and sushi rice. Toro is very tiny but tasty, ultra fatty and melts in your mouth. The miso soup is great, very well balanced - not too salty with a rich, umami flavor. The rainbow roll has a big piece of imitation crab running through the middle and was good. The tempura in the spider roll could've been a little crispier. Everything cost $45 and was relatively filling. Pretty impressed overall with the quality and price, though.

    After a long day of class, I was ready to chow down. I was craving sushi, as I haven't had it in a long time. I went to my UberEats app, and Tenzan popped up. I decided to go with a deluxe meal. Please check my photo for details. The food was amazing! It was freshly made, and made with care. The salmon came over a bed of veggies, and was cooked to the right texture. Everything else on the plate was delicious. The egg rolls were actually good, and sat well in my stomach. This is great, as usually this is not the case with egg rolls. The miso soup and rice complemented the meal well, and I was overall satisfied with my order. This meal could feed two, but since it was just for me, I split this into two meals. Tenzan is a great find. I will consider them the next time I crave sushi.

    Ambiance (5/5): Super cute and trendy on the inside. The vibes are very welcoming, chill, no noise…read more The establishment is quite small and can be very tight on seating. The wait was around 30 minutes for 4 on at 1:30p on a Sunday. By the time our meal ended, there were several empty tables. Service (4/5): Timing of the dishes was not in sync with the table (not that that bad, just noticeable). Ordering wasn't as smooth as we hoped but all in all corrected (order was wrong but was corrected when we were asked to re-confirm the order). By the time we sat, the food was out within 20 min and then the pancakes came out another 20 min after the first dish. Food (5/5): The food was outstanding! Seriously like everything from the pancakes, ramen, to the lemonade. Lunch special of Tan Tan ramen (special May 2026) and Pork Cha-Shu Bowl. Tan Tan was spectacular and was def better than the bowl. The broth had so much flavor with richness, spice, spicy level, half seasoned egg. The noodles were also a lovely bouncy chew. The pork was pretty standard with about 5 thin slices spread over a soy sauce based sauce. Omurice was very silky. The egg was nice and runny. I liked that the sauce wasn't too ketchup-flavor forward. I enjoyed the rice which had bits of meat which gave it more flavor too. Crème Anglaise Souffle Pancake - my only wish was that there was more of it because it was so good. The cream that was on top was not too heavy and the zest flavors blended surprisingly well. It comes with a little side of fresh fruit. The cake was not overly egg-y in flavor either. Lavender Lemonade - Not too tart and not too sweet. I liked the forward lavender taste.

Just something to keep in mind when you walk in. My friends and I did family style and ordered the Omurice, Vert Frais Matcha Soufflé Pancake, Matcha French Toast, and Large Fries. The French fries came out first and were basically McDonald's fries with a little Parmesan sprinkled on it. Everything looked pretty and instagrammable but at most tasted just okay. I wasn't in love with the Omurice sauce which tasted more tomato-based than I prefer. The soufflé was nice and fluffy but the pancake itself didn't really have flavor. The matcha French toast took the cake for me. It was soft and crunchy on the crust. My group ordered drink as well and the total ended up being $120+ with tip. Way more expensive than I was expecting, but I was happy to treat my friends to a nice birthday brunch. Come for the photos and aesthetic, but don't expect much when it comes to the food.

Dashi Okume sells ... you guessed it ... dashi. They sell several kinds, and you can taste all of them there in the shop before deciding which to take home with you (I tried them all and went home with one bag of vegetable dashi and one bag of sweet shellfish dashi). They also make custom-made dashi. You can choose from around 30 ingredients - dried fish, seaweed, mushrooms, and vegetables. They grind it up and put into individual bags for you. Such a fun idea, but I thought I should try some of their pre-made dashi options before creating mine own. They also sell miso, rice, noodles, rice seasoning, seaweed, tea, and other items. I picked up some Japanese mustard, seaweed, and rice seasoning to take home with my dashi. Beyond being a great shop, they also have a cafe area where they offer a teishoku set meal - you pick your fish, which comes with tea, rice, miso soup, pickles, and sides. They also offer an omakase popup. The shop is beautiful, and the service was very friendly and helpful. I'll certainly return for more shopping but next time I plan to make a meal of it and try their teishoku set.

I always order their "obento box", which comes with a choice of an entrée from their daily-rotating list (so cute how they write them on a few chalkboards that they move around the restaurant for whoever's ordering). Everything I've ordered has always been delicious, from the various fish dishes (salmon / arctic char are particular favourites), the stir-fried pork, and their sushi rolls. The salad is invariably so fresh, and the small side of obanzai is always a treat :) Price point is unparalleled -- I think the bento was priced at $12 when I first came a few years ago, and it's still $12 now. Such a lovely cute restaurant -- service is fast and friendly, and the interior, while a bit small, is definitely very cosy and has that unique rustic Japanese aesthetic to it (including a lot of their tableware). This is definitely a must-try in the area, and I will no doubt be back very soon!

    Cuisine: 6 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 6 Overall: 6 I have to preface that, if I had reviewed Hibino in the past, they likely would have received 4 stars. Unfortunately, my latest experience was such a letdown that I have to average that into this review. My usual order here over 10+ years has always been their Kaisen Don, which had some of the better quality sushi rice available in Queens. If you don't think sushi rice is important, then skip my review. If you do, then know that my preference is slight warm rice that does not clump together, with a nice touch of vinegar. Hibino seems to get this part right regularly, but not this past Sunday. It was cold, clumpy, and super light on seasoning. Furthermore, as soon as the bowl arrived, I was a bit skeptical since it's not the usual square box filled with premium goodies. Instead, it was a smaller round bowl with relatively common pieces of sashimi. In the past, there were toro, ikura, uni and scallop, but none were present on Sunday. The only premium pieces I received was the spotted prawn. The rest were salmon, yellowtail, bluefin tuna, sea bass, and arctic char. More importantly, some of the sashimi pieces were somewhat mushy and slightly fishy, not the best quality. On the other hand, we also ordered their Chirashi, which had seared toro, yellowfin tuna, salmon belly, yellowtail belly, shrimp, and flying fish roe. Between the proteins and rice is a layer of shredder egg. Sadly, rice was still cold and lacked flavor, but the egg did help a bit. Though I prefer the thin slices of sashimi in the Kaisen Don over the chunky pieces of fish in the Chirashi, I did prefer the latter on that day. Bottom line, I will give them another chance, but the downgrade on the quality of rice and premium seafood in the Kaisen Don was a major disappointment. Praying my next visit restores my faith in the restaurant.

However, after the first time trying it, my partner and I were blown away by the quality of the meal. The portions we got were way more than any other Japanese set meal restaurant in NYC, and for under $40 you can't really get any better than Honzen. Each set includes miso soup, fresh sashimi of the day, uni topped tofu custard, pickled vegetables, eggplant, pickles, and your main dish. Our favorite has to be the katsu, it's probably the best value item on the menu. The miso cod was also excellent, super buttery and tasty while not being too expensive. Both options are available under $40. I would also recommend just ordering the standard Japanese rice, since it's already very filling as it is and we've never needed any of the rice with additions. Service can be a bit slow if you come later in the evening, which is understandable as it gets busier with all the set meals coming out. Ambiance is super cozy, with a sit down area that has cushions and a low table. Can't really go wrong with any spot in the restaurant. We come back here all the time when we're craving something homey and filling, would recommend Honzen!
