    Izumi Sushi

    I love this sushi place! Very affordable and delicious. Staff is very friendly when dining in & my online orders are always correct.

    We got all seasons and Naruto roll

    The day before school started, my daughter chose to eat at Umi Sushi because it's her favorite sushi place. She dressed up as a princess and felt like royalty on our lunch date. Employees are kind and generous. We ordered all the season rolls and a Naruto roll (wrapped in cucumber instead of rice, my favorite). We got a complimentary sweet potato roll too. At the end of our meal, one of the owners gave my daughter a Japanese soda for free. It was her first time trying it and she enjoyed it. This is our favorite place and we highly recommend it.

    Thank you sushi Sweet Potato Mango Roll

    I really wanted to like this hole in the wall sushi place but when the business put sweet sauces on all the rolls, I get a bit worried. I had like sweet drops on my spicy tuna rolls which was really weird. The caterpillar roll was all right but everything tastes muted and probably means it isn't fresh. I did get the rock shrimp appetizer and it was yummy. But that kind of sauces was put on all my rolls :( Service was decent and people are friendly. There is a tv on the wall to keep you entertained if you are dining solo.

    Great salmon sushi! They can also make some rolls gluten free. Miso soup and edamame are also gluten free. Place is very busy with to go orders and there isn't a lot of seating inside. Friendly staff.

    Ask the Community - Umi Sushi

    Is there parking?

    There isn't a parking garage but there is street parking with parking meters of course, you may need to circle the block because of this being a high traffic area.

    Do they offer gift cards?

    Yes

    Can anyone confirm if they're still open? I've ordered twice (using UberEats) in the last week and both orders have been cancelled. One got to preparing and then cancelled and one went from order received to them cancelled.

    Can I bring a stroller with me if I'm dining in?

    I think it depends how big the stroller is. Umi Sushi is a small restaurant so thinner strollers may be more ideal than the heavy duty ones.

    Did the restaurant close due to the covid-19 quarantine? I heard from a few friends that the gates were down when they tried getting take out during the week.

    Do you do delivery?

    Yes they do

    Do they have a all you can eat option?

    No, they don't.

    This restaurant offers Byob?

    No we are not offer BYOB

    Is this ayce?

    No not an ayce but quality sushi that is sure to fill you up.

    Cuisine: 7 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 5 Value: 7 Overall: 7 When you ask people, what's the best Japanese restaurant in Forest Hills, many people will mention Sushi Time. In reality, they don't serve high quality sushi omakase or anything fancy. However, they do serve some of the best sushi rolls in the area. Always fresh and many crazy concoctions that will satisfy almost any taste buds. I have been coming here ever since moving into the neighborhood. The servers have always been kind and helpful. The restaurant is very small and really focus mostly on takeout or delivery. On the last visit, I really like the Mini Scallop Roll and Spicy Tuna Crunchy Roll. Munchy Roll was just okay. White Tuna Sashimi was too cold and icy, while the White Tuna Nigiri was somewhat better. However, truth be told, just come for the fun and interesting sushi rolls and forget about the nigiri or sashimi.

As…read moresomeone with a severe gluten allergy, I was really excited to try out this place because I saw a lot of reviews online praising for the way the staff members handle food allergies. I went in right around opening time (noon) on the weekend - the outside is a bit unassuming and partially covered by awning but the inside was brightly lit and the lady at the register (I wish I asked for her name) was incredibly warm and welcoming. She was super enthusiastic about helping me identify which rolls would be safe for me to have. They also have a grab-and-go section where certain popular rolls and sides have already been prepped, but as long as you're willing to wait, the chefs are more than happy to make a fresh batch of a specific roll, even if there are already packed portions of the same exact roll in the grab-and-go section. I thought this was a really thoughtful approach to appeasing all customers. I ended up going with a Philadelphia roll and a Mango Tango specialty roll, which contained a combination of salmon and tuna, mango, avocado, and cucumbers. The ingredients were very fresh and I think the prices are quite reasonable. Without even asking, I was given gluten-free tamari sauce instead of normal soy sauce. The combination of the restaurant's extensive menu and how kind the staff were made this a really wonderful experience - I was very satisfied with my order and definitely see myself coming back again and again whenever I have a sushi craving. The only downside is that this is really more so a grab-and-go spot in general, as there were only two small tables in the entire store. As a heads up, they also prefer to take cash instead of card.

I asked for hot green tea while he got a bottle of Japanese pineapple soda. We ordered at the counter because no one was when we entered so we didn't know if there was table service. This spot used to be a Chinese takeout so it is definitely on the casual side. We sat at one of the tables (5 two tops). We had grabbed some disposable chopsticks and napkins from the counter. When the server came with the tonkatsu and tempura, she had napkins and chopsticks for us so I guess we didn't have to help ourselves beforehand. She then came with a lovely teapot and two small cups for the tea. The tempura was different from most places - no crunchy panko crust and no dipping sauce. When she came back, I asked about a sauce and she pointed to a small dish with thick dark sauce. I had thought that was for the tonkatsu. The poke took even longer and that was also different from what I'm used to. The fish pieces were not marinated - she gave me a small dish with soy sauce. The sliced jalapeño was also a surprise. I had thought I would get a spicy marinade on the poke. I mixed in the soy sauce and ate it with the sliced jalapeños. When we came home and looked at the receipt, the prices were weird. The tea was $1.56 and the $22 dishes were $22.88. Apparently we were charged a 4% credit fee which wasn't disclosed - or we missed the sign.

I hate to bring down a mom 'n' pop shop, but this place isn't very good. It's also kinda pricey for Forest Hills and for the quality you get. Sigh. The best dishes we got were the Oxtail Croquettes and the Crispy Salmon. Things started going downhill at the pretty but bizarrely flavored Forest Hills Roll, which inexplicably pairs salmon, tobiko, orange, chives, avocado sauce, and teriyaki mayo. I appreciate a creative/fusion roll, but salmon and orange should never, ever exist on the same plate. Ever. The worst item we got was the Chicken Udon. I'm not sure how aany Asian restaurant could mess up such a staple dish, but in Daikon's case, it's because they used Japanese SOUP udon, not stir-fry udon. As soon as the plate was set, I could tell it was the wrong type of udon, and the udon was massively overcooked. Yes, there are different types of udon and they are meant to be cooked in different ways. They are identifiable by their shapes, storage needs and preparation needs, a memo Daikon clearly missed. Points for loading the dish with veggies, but eating them within the soggy mess of udon was just unpleasant.

The $45 nigiri combo was not worth it. The fish is not premium grade that command the kind of price they charge. Environment is dated. Service is good but not warm and inviting.
