I love Tobiko's... I go there at least once a week without fail. Love the people that work there. John is amazing I highly recommend it

Located inside Westfield-Barnes airport, this was a cool location to have some sushi with my lover. I came on Juneteenth, which counts as a holiday as they did not serve their lunch menu. We started off with the kani salad which was delectable and very nicely portioned. I had the hot and spicy ramen with pork belly which was also so delicious. The pork still had a bit of crisp to it and the noodles were nice and chewy. I was surprised to find half a hard boiled egg as well as a crispy sunny side egg. It was also filled with some mushrooms, spinach, and very toasty corn kernels (a good amount were burnt and black). I also had the salmon tempura sushi roll, which was kinda small for being a specialty roll. My fiancé had the Hawaiian roll and the Philly roll and also enjoyed it. With nice views of the planes flying by, this was definitely a unique experience. Our total came out to be $74 before tip, which is more on the pricier side, which accounts for the docking in 1 star. read more

Customer Service Complaint - Tobiko Sushi Restaurant I am writing to express my disappointment with the service and overall experience my group received at Tobiko this weekend. Prior to our visit, I called the restaurant in advance because we had a large party of approximately 25 people. I wanted to make sure the restaurant was aware of our group and to understand whether there were any procedures or accommodations we needed to make in advance. I was informed that there was no call-ahead service and that orders could not be placed in advance. Despite contacting the restaurant ahead of time, our group experienced significant delays and a lack of accommodation. We waited approximately 45 minutes for two sushi and sashimi combination orders, which was particularly disappointing given the size of our group and the fact that we ultimately spent more than $1,000 on food. Unfortunately, the service from the waitstaff was also disappointing. The staff was not particularly courteous or attentive, and there appeared to be little effort made to accommodate or effectively manage a large party. I understand that serving a group of 25 can be challenging; however, I expected a greater level of communication, professionalism, and customer service given the amount of business we were bringing to the restaurant. The interaction with Alisa, the manager on duty, was especially frustrating. Rather than helping resolve the situation, I found her manner to be condescending. She insisted that members of our group remain in their seats throughout the meal, which felt unnecessarily restrictive and made the experience even more uncomfortable. Additionally, I was paying for several platters for members of our group, yet Alisa insisted that each individual table cover its own check. While I understand that restaurants may have policies regarding separate checks, the way this was communicated and handled made it unnecessarily difficult for me to pay for the food I had agreed to cover. My concern is not simply that we experienced a long wait. It is the combination of the lack of preparation for a large group, extended wait times, poor communication, unprofessional customer service, and the manner in which the manager handled the situation. For a group that spent over $1,000 at the restaurant, I expected a much higher level of customer service and professionalism. Unfortunately, this experience left a very negative impression. Based on this experience, I would not recommend Tobiko for large parties, particularly groups of more than six people. If the restaurant chooses to accommodate large groups, I believe there should be clearer procedures and expectations for both the customers and staff to ensure that these situations are handled professionally. I hope management will take this feedback seriously and review how large parties are handled, as well as the customer service provided by management and waitstaff. Sincerely, unhappy customer read more

Food (4.0) Service (4.6) Ambiance (4.0) What a pleasant surprise. Dropped into Westfield-Barnes (MA) Regional Airport (also a National Guard Base) with a student for fuel and figured we would get a coffee and a quick bite. When I saw their only restaurant served sushi I had doubts. Their food was outstanding. I was initially skeptical so had the shrimp tempura which came with tower of fresh onions and broccoli. The onions were delicious as were the broccoli. The shrimp were very good. ($9). I should have done as my student and ordered a noodle dish. He had the Ramen Bulgogi Special ($18) which was huge and looked delicious with a fried egg floating on top. The location is inside the airport terminal yet decorated like a pub, with a bar and booths overlooking the airfield,, clean and bright. The bar has a nice tap selection though we could not partake. The service is young, polite, and very attentive. Stop by if ever in the area, you will not go wrong. read more

TLDR: Food presentation was good, but not the flavor. Small airport is a cool place for a restaurant Not a big fan of giving negative reviews, so let's start with what I liked about the setting: 1.) There were a lot of people, which is a great setting if you did want to order drinks (I did not). 2.) My 3 year old loved watching the planes and occasional jet take off and land. We had a great seat by the window. We ordered the Japanese Curry Katsu, Korean Bulgogi, and Tuna roll. Only had Japanese Curry one other time at Genki Ramen in Cincinnati, but that prior experience was vastly superior. Bulgogi is something that I do enjoy with regularity and sometimes cook at home. My wife commented on how nice the dish looked, but the beef color was achieved by over searing, not from soy sauce and the carmelization of sugar. It tasted burnt and was begging for garlic, ginger and sweetness. Tuna roll was pretty standard, but they did also provide the less attractive end pieces. I'm not a sushi snob, but the portion size was about as expected, so getting the ends didn't really feel like a bonus. read more

5 stars, food flying off the hibachi! so, by chance, i was driving through MA and needed some grub, yelp to the rescue! they mentioned tobiko with their rightfully earned rating, and off the exit i went! get this, top quality sushi at a Municiple airport! new concept for me and im letting you know, you gotta stop and get some lunch! they also have a offer where you can get lunch and a flying lesson! ive also heard the airport had a-10s back in the day, so that would be cool to watch too! i had a couple rolls and some maguro, all very good. i would recommend sticking around to eat and NOT just trying to eat it while driving, i know, hands 10 and 2, but hands were on tuna roll and wasabi! lunch special, hibachi and so many other offerings, really cant wait until i get back. try the flying fish roll! read more

Great ramen and a cool location! I stopped here traveling and this spot was right about at my halfway point. It's a cool view of the airport runways, and the overall feel inside is nice as well. The service was fast and efficient - super personable staff that were friendly. They took my order quickly and got everything out fast, but didn't rush. The ramen was very good. Not my top bowl but definitely a good one. I will definitely be back!! read more

Big menu, medium taste. We went to Tobiko Sushi when the food truck was MIA at the brewery up the street. A big fan of all types of Japanese foods, I was a bit disappointed in flavor. The yellowfin sashimi I ordered was a bit rubbery, and perhaps that is why this particular (and usually popular) fish wasn't featured in more rolls. The veggie choice was nice, but the dark hibachi noodles are deceiving. More color does not mean more flavor. Even the soy sauce was "is it there" in flavor. (For reference, K's here in town knows hibachi flavor. )I would say that there was good service, and if I were looking for a fill-in for dinner, I might try a roll next time, which my partner did like, and he really liked the kimchi. If only the basics brought it to the table, this would be a great place to "hang" (flight hangar pun). read more

Service was good and the inside was clean. But the Ramen was definitely not that great. The noodles were bunched together and stuck on each other. The beef in the ramen was mediocre and the corn was a weird addition. The waitstaff was very attentive though and was good to our small group. I would give them another chance based on their friendliness and cleanliness. read more

Tokbiko might be my favorite restaurant in Westfield, MA. It's not in the center of town but hidden inside Barnes Airport but it's well worth the drive once you see the view and taste the food. The wait staff is so nice and accommodating, if you sit at the bar the bar tenders are so funny and attentive. In the summer you can enjoy outdoor seating on the roof top. My go-to favorite is the Hot and Spicy Ramen! I usually swap the pork for chicken and add an extra soy egg (the hard boiled one!) and am in heaven. I can never finish my ramen in one sitting but would still recommend eating your first pass over the bowl at the restaurant. Ordering to go and eating at home is still tasty but doesn't hit the spot when it's all prepared together at the same time. read more

A family favorite. Though we often get take out, we also enjoy dining in. When the upstairs deck is open it's nice to watch the airplanes coming in and out. Last time we were there, there was a 56 seat and a 24 seat jet on the tarmac. read more

This place has my heart! Hands down one of the best Ramen's I have had around Massachussetts. The service? Even better. Our waitress was so lovely and attentive and made sure all of our questions from the menu were answered and she was always making sure we had everything we needed. Parking is available in the premises! The entrance is shared with the airport entrance and honestly, I wish Tobiko was at all the airports!! The food was delicious and you can oversee the airplanes from the window. I tried the Spicy Kimchi Ramen and it was amazing, their bibimbap, a must try as well!! Everything was cooked to perfection. Their red sangria was so good too!! I heard in the summer you can go to their rooftop and that it is amazing!! I cannot wait to be back read more

Went for a business lunch. I work in EMS/Medical Flight so the venue is great in my opinion. It's got a great view, the seating area/bar are standard, nothing super fancy but kept up well and clean. The staff was friendly, it wasn't very busy, but still took about 5-7 minutes to be seated, that doesn't work when you are on a tight schedule. I noticed the taps and they had Fresh Pick and a few other local craft choices, that's a plus. The food came out fairly quickly, another plus. I had a spicy tuna roll that was good, the ginger was fresh and the wasabi moderately hot/spicy. Good flavors on the roll, and even better on the standard ramen. I have no complaints, they could just be a little faster on turning over the seating (seating new guests) but overall a nice lunch experience. read more

I can't recommend it. Ordered the sushi appetizer which was uninspiring in presentation and flavor. Bland and I'll cut fish, no finesse at all. Just hunks of fish. The rice was tasteless and the size of a pretzel nugget. The fish was way out of proportion to the fish making it very difficult to enjoy. This place makes sushi an option but honestly they are doing a better job at the supermarket these days. Not a viable option if you know decent sushi. Look for an alternative. read more

We usually love this place, but tonight was a mess. We ordered two bowls of ramen, and a sushi roll for pick up. They said one hour. Fine. We got there an hour after ordering and were told they were just waiting on the sushi roll. After 45 minutes, we were still waiting. For ONE sushi roll. Apparently everything else was ready and just sitting there- which means by the time the sushi roll was ready, everything else was going to be cold. We asked for a refund and left. read more

If you like facial hair in your food this place is for you . Otherwise avoid it like the plague. Sushi is not fresh, and had a strange smell- tuna . When questioned our server said this is the normal smell. No, it's not, I've had raw fish before. Sure enough, within a day the stomach cramps set in and explosive diarrhea. Don't complain, they won't believe you. read more

Have I not reviewed this place despite being there what must be over 25 times? The owner and staff are all very pleasant and the restaurant has always been neat and clean. The sushi rolls and whatnot are made in front of you at the bar and there are options for people who do not like sushi as well. I often switch between the poke bowl for the lighter faire (that ginger dressing, uuuugghhhhhh yes) and the hot and spicy ramen. The ramen is easily enough for two meals and that one pickled egg in it is like the cherry on top. The pork belly is tender and the broth has an incredible depth of flavor. Hell even their miso soup, which at most places is water, tofu and seaweed has so much flavor packed into it. You can tell there are no corners cut at this restaurant. Beers on tap, we only do Fresh Pick, a local and classic IPA. Mixed drinks are great here as well. Full bar for anything you'd want really. Outdoor seating available at the deck if weather permits, it's cool to watch the planes. If this place goes out of business I'll probably die. read more

Pretty neat place! I love planes so having some delicious food while seeing planes takeoff is always nice. Been here twice and both times had a decent experience. Waitresses are most of the time are super friendly and understanding. I think I need to visit this place and get some more different dishes because the first time I don't even remember what I tasted and last time I just got the usual Kani salad, some mussels and sushi. Can't remember the rolls but they weren't the best but not bad. I'd come here for a good atmosphere too. read more

Really a surprise. Great food and service. Sushi answer to the $100 cheeseburger (pilots know).

Excellent food, reasonable prices! Everything on the menu is terrific. So convenient too if you're flying in.

This place is nestled in the Barnes Regional Airport terminal. What a cool, metropolitan-feel place! And to top that, my wife and I had great "Tokyo Style" Ramen. The flavors reminded me of the careful flavors selected in food that I once tasted in Yokohama, JP. The sushi nigiri (pictured) featured generous and delicately sliced fish on top of perfectly formed rice. This is a great place. We will be back! read more

This is a take out only review .... I had a rice and steak bowl dinner and it was very good. The menu has a lot of good variety and ranges from sushi to other Asian fares.

I would definitely check this place out if you are a Westfield resident. Two thumbs up. read more

Tonight was a night of redemption. A while back I came to this location and had an unfortunate experience. Although the wait staff was incredible the food didn't match. To be transparent and forthcoming, the last review of this location wasn't the best, in fact it was harsh in my opinion. We decided we'd never come back. Well, today we decided to give this brand new restaurant a try. What a change. The feeling in the restaurant as you walk in has changed for the better. There's an electricity in the air as you hear people chatter gushing over the incredible display of food. The presentation, the smell of freshly made food that was clearly made with love and intention. The perfectly made drinks. Absolute incredible wait staff /bartender and the owner making his rounds to greet all of his patrons. A new name with a whole new attitude. . The food was unlike anything I've had before. We've had our fair share of japanese cuisine around the area. Tobiko 100% hands down takes the cake. I was stunned by the beauty of my dish but also by the insane smell and even better the flavor. Within the first five min we decided that this would be our new go to favorite restaurant. The sushi was sushi,it was good but the ramen was the star tonight. to finish my meal I got the green tea ice cream that was the perfect end to the perfect meal. . If you want an incredible meal that's not like every other japanese franchise or restaurant you've been to, go here and you will not be disappointed. . Cheers to Tobiko, to many years of success and incredible food for years to come ! . read more

I am making it a point to post reviews about how accessible restaurants are to people who have fat on their bodies like me and might find trying a new restaurant difficult not knowing details. I wear a size 28+ pant and am fairly apple shaped and I found the booth to be comfortable. I didn't have to squeeze in at all. The table did not appear to be attached to the wall but I did not verify for sure. I didn't need to move the table at all though to get in to the seat. The food itself was decent. The lunch ramen special is a surprisingly large portion. The sushi I tried was just ok, nothing too mind blowing but I wasn't expecting mind blowing. It was a good lunch. The service was good. read more
