Wowowow I am definitely coming back here. We ordered a set of food and enjoyed it so much, we ordered seconds on the spot. I don't remember the names of what we ordered but I took a photo so I could show the waiter next time I'm there. We walked in with 5 people and got a seat immediately on a Sunday night.

Shrimp Tempura Medley
Monica Z.

Verge does its best in its creative atmosphere and food presentation. We both got the soulmate special roll since we thought the name was cute and each of the pieces were thick and quite delicious. we were hungry but the rolls were quite filling and I would have asked for more but we were in a hurry. The rock shrimp came out quick and hot but it was clearly made fresh. there was also a bar counter which was interesting enough since you don't see much of that in sushi restaurants but it was a nice experience!

Ordered Maki Trio lunch plus scallop maki on Grubhub and it was so good . Would recommend!
Ginny C.

I ordered the trio maki lunch and added a scallop roll on Grubhub and it was all so good! The scallop was super fresh and sweet so I was very pleasantly surprised. The tempura was super flakey with panko. It was exactly what I wanted and the trio maki lunch deal came with a miso soup. Grubhub gives a discount if you are an Amazon prime member just fyi!! I would like to dine in when I have time. Would recommend!

Soul Mate Signature Roll ( 8pcs )

Not pictured was the 10 nigiri piece entree. I thought that this entree was the least exciting of everything we got. The fish was mild. The tuna tartare was really good! It was a very small bite for 2. The soulmate was really cute and tasted like what I expected! The fried rice with the soy sauce on the table was yummy! It didn't feel as heavy as other fried rice.

Came on a Sunday evening and the restaurant wasn't too crowded. We did have a reservation however and was able to get a table. The ambiance of Verge is very nice with warm lighting and a modern interior design feel. The food was pretty good. I think there might be more economical options during lunch but for the quality of fish, it is pretty standard for nyc. I got a cooked roll because I am boring and don't like raw fish that much but my friends enjoyed their raw fish selections.

Order the miso mustard salmon omg it was SO perfect: cooked exactly medium as requested, the dijon sauce and the veggies both were so tasty! We also got the agedashi tofu which comes with 5 pieces and they are BIG and it's 9.50!?! My friends ordered a lot of sushi and crispy rice and they LOVED it. One of the best meals Ive had in 2026! Will be back soon! Staff are so welcoming! Love this neighborhood spot!!!

I'm not sure if you need reservations. But I made one for two people and in the beginning they had us sit at the counter and I wasn't too pleased with it. But I asked if we could have a table, and they were able to accommodate us and had a stool to place my bag on top. What great customer service. For the food, there were a bunch of starters that we ordered, such as the butter edamame. Omg! The edamame had a great mix of butter on it, plus the salt. I was very impressed. It tasted like buttery popcorn that you get at the movies. The least favorite was the Akami Tuna Sushi Rice, but it was still above average. The Kushiyaki, which had three skewers of rib eye with vegetables in teriyaki sauce which was amazing. The soul mate signature roll with fresh spicy tuna and avocado was made into a heart, and that not only tasted great but looked great, too. For dessert, I got the mochi and chose three different flavors. I would come back again to get other things off the menu.

Sushi Premium (6 pcs / 10 pcs / 15pcs)

I ordered delivery since I wasn't feeling well. I am so disappointed that I ordered from here. I was looking for good sushi place for few hours then decided to order from here since reviews were good and pictures were look good too. Most disappointed part was sushi premium 10 piece nigiri. I had high hope that this was going to be good but it's not premium at all. They had one regular tuna, Salmon, all others were white fish that I don't prefer. Not uni, no ikura and no yellow tail. Just white fish they topping different. I cannot believe they call this premium and charge 60 dollars for it. These were not even tasty. I had better sushi at AYE restaurant On Verge Roll, uni was not fresh. I could taste bitter and some parts were melting and changing color. I still taste it from my stomach bitter sea smell and feeling nauseous. Trust me, I love uni usually. Wagyu toast was all over mess . I understand since it was delivered but it should be different way. My partner said hamach belly and wagyu nigiri was ok. I'm not sure if it was because delivery, they didn't use good ingredients?? Was it better to eat in restaurants? But I would not order from here again.

The best thing I had here was the tofu and I don't even like tofu. The flavors for each sushi were mediocre. It wasn't anything special. I have had better fish and also better flavor in each sushi before. The shrimp was okay. The roll was meh. The service was good.

SOLID sushi spot in Greenpoint. The first time I came here (3ish months ago), all the sushi was great but then we ordered the Filet Mignon w/ Foie Gras and that was disappointing. Should have known better than to order a Filet Mignon at a sushi restaurant but my partner wanted to try it... Second time we came back more recently, we stuck to sushi/appetizers so our visit was much better with no failed items. Kona Kanpachi (4/5): very fresh yellowtail but the sauce is overpowering. We asked for the sauce on the side the 2nd time around and it was so much better. Paradise, Verge Authentic, Hokkaido Scallop Nigiri, California & Hokkaido Uni Nigiri, Yellowtail Jalapeno roll, and Spicy Scallop roll were all delicious and the fish to rice ratio was perfect. On the first visit when we ordered the Filet Mignon w/ Foie Gras, the waiter/kitchen actually forgot our order so we waited over 30 minutes for it (should have not reminded them looking back). Once we received it, the steak was closer to well done than medium rare so we asked for another one that wasn't well done. After the second one finally came out and we actually tried the steak, it was so underwhelming. Not the best quality meat and compared to all the sushi/fish items we had to force ourselves to finish it.

Bar

Went to this sushi bar with a few friends yesterday after finishing up at nearby Vessel Floats. We were excited to check it out as it had been on our lists to try for a few months now. The restaurant is fairly new, just over a year old, and you can tell how much the staff really cherish each customer. We were greeted immediately by a very personable server who let us choose our seats and quickly engaged us in some light conversation. As we sat down all of us were struck by the beautiful decor inside. The bar area had this stunning gold metal background and there were plants everywhere! Even the light fixtures were unique with gold oddly shaped bulbs hanging from the ceiling. Now to the food! I, as a non-seafood eater, ended up ordering the miso soup and tonkatsu. The miso soup felt like a warm hug and the tonkatsu was flavorful but just a little tough. My friends ended up ordering the miso soup as well, a seafood bisque which I heard was delicious, and an assortment of sushi rolls and oysters. I heard no complaints and in fact, everyone left full and happy. We also ordered a bottle of the yuzu sake which was dangerous!! Sweet and tasty :) Would absolutely come again!

Verge Verge Signature Roll ( 6pcs )

So I came here with my friend for dinner tonight since we wanted to catch up and haven't had dinner together in awhile. I was skeptical of this place before going since it had only 40 reviews and the name didn't sound Japanese. Well we walked in the restaurant is beautiful and has an amazing atmosphere. Also was very crowded for a Tuesday night. I was so happy I called to make the reservation as they had no online reservation platform I could find. The servers here were very friendly and the food came out very efficiently. We ordered the signature verge roll, the paradise and the Chilean sea bass. The paradise came out first I think it was the best bite of the night and it was Uber fresh! This is quality toro and very quality uni! That was like heaven in your mouth, wish I had more than 4 pieces. Next put was the verge signature roll. On first bite I thought it tasted very fresh but was lacking something, so I dabbed a very little bit of soy sauce on it and it made the whole piece sing in my mouth. Again all fish was super fresh and high quality, uni was also still amazing in this. We finished off with the sea bass that was delicious and luscious. It wasn't heavily sauced or seasoned but I also don't think Chilean sea-bass really needs any of that. We had the first sale on the menu, korabatu? Or something similar to that and it was very good, a bit of a sweet melon taste and paired well with the food. It was more notes of junmai than daijingo. I will definitely be back to try more

Seared salmon roll w house sauce
Cece L.

Solid food with great decor and ambiance. My friend and I split the unagi donburi and the seared salmon w house sauce roll. The donburi, although a huge portion, was a bit cold. Could've been warmer and the sauce a bit less sweet? Or sour? There was something I didn't love about it, but I did think the eel was well-cooked and generous. Our roll was just okay. The sauce was super strong and overpowering. One downside -- the food came out pretty slowly and some of us didn't get our meals until others were almost done with theirs. But the servers were really nice and offered a complementary dessert for the table due to the wait.

Check out the negative reviews below where the restaurant's management defensively responds to…read morereviews they don't like. It's a hoot! Note to Management: TAKE THE L and learn from the feedback, how about that? Also, side note: if you are *not* providing cloth napkins you are *not* a fine dining establishment. If I could give no stars, I would. This review will echo what many low ratings have already pointed out. It ultimately doesn't matter that the place has a kind of cool/retro vibe/design. This is a restaurant that has ZERO concept of hospitality. Like absolutely zero. It's like, if you want to be treated like crap as a paying guest, this is the place to go. 4 members of our party of 7 arrived 10 minutes early. They were permitted to sit at the bar (the bar is for reservation holders ONLY). 5 minutes later, members 5 and 6 arrived. They would not seat us at our table until the 7th member of the party arrived. Patently absurd. Our server, Michael, was nice enough, explaining to us how to order family style from the menu. Personally I found it a bit patronizing but that's probably just me. Drinks service was noticeably slow (this is important to note for later in this review). The food was fine/delicious - only the Char Siu pork, garlic eggplant and Beef Chow Fun were decent portions for family style dining - and the Char Siu was room temp. Here's where things got wild (especially in light of the slow drinks service) - WHILE WE WERE STILL EATING OUR FOOD our server Michael sidles up to the table - I'm on the end, and he's standing next to me. He announces that our reservation only has 15 minutes left in it - they expect us to finish eating and drinking within the next 15 minutes!?!?!? He follows this up with an offer to wrap up our food to go. ... I'm the only person who actually hears him say all this in the noisy restaurant so it falls on me to communicate to my table mates what our server just said. ... So, 15 minutes later he shows up to take our money - he'll only split the bill into two even though we're 3 couples and one singleton. They AUTOMATICALLY tack on a 20% tip and yet the machine offers you the opportunity to tip even more. The food was nothing to write home about and no one needs the militant attitude when spending hundreds of dollars dining out with friends. I humbly suggest you GO ANY PLACE ELSE for your fine dining experience - this place does not deserve to stay in business another day longer. Oh - and as others have noted- THERE ARE NO DESSERTS HERE. Don't come here for a birthday or any kind of celebration where you'd usually have a dessert.

Extremely Disappointing Experience - Poor Service and Cold Food…read more Our dinner reservation was at 8:00 PM, and we didn't leave until 11:00 PM. Unfortunately, it wasn't because we were enjoying ourselves or having a great time--it was because the service was unbelievably slow. In three hours, we were only able to get two drinks each, one appetizer, and one entrée. Everything took an unreasonable amount of time, and the service was frustrating from start to finish. As if the lack of service wasn't bad enough, our entrées came out one dish at a time, and the food was COLD! Having to wait that long for a meal only to receive cold food is completely unacceptable. A dinner reservation should be an enjoyable experience, not an entire evening spent waiting for drinks, food, and basic service. For the amount of time we spent there, the experience was nowhere near what it should have been. Sadly, this was a very disappointing dining experience. Between the painfully slow service, the staggered delivery of our meals, and the cold food, I cannot say I would recommend this restaurant based on our experience. Management really needs to address these issues because customers deserve much better. AND THE ICING ON THE CAKE, IT WAS NOT EVEN PACKED!! Plenty of empty tables !! Horrible just horrible !

I genuinely enjoy discovering restaurants and rooftops worth returning to, and I make a point of visiting more than once before forming a lasting opinion or recommending a place to others. My first experience at Lighthouse Rooftop was excellent. The views were stunning, the restaurant was bustling both indoors and outdoors, and the service was attentive despite the crowd. I left impressed and considered it somewhere I would gladly revisit, recommend to friends, and potentially consider for corporate gatherings. Unfortunately, my second visit was quite the opposite and, frankly, one of the most disappointing dining experiences I've had in a while. We stopped by spontaneously on Halloween night, a Saturday, and were surprised to find the restaurant barely one-third full. Interestingly, the online reservation system indicated that reservations were required with a $10 deposit, but we decided to take our chances and were seated at a table next to the bar. From the outset, the service was disorganized. We were given a small bites menu but no drink menu. After waiting approximately 20 minutes, I eventually had to approach the bar myself to request one. A female staff member wearing a red corset eventually brought it over. I immediately told her we were ready to order, only for her to look directly at me and walk away. She never returned to take our order or check on us. Her only subsequent interaction with our table was toward the end of the evening, when she casually asked if we needed anything. Thankfully, another server, Sal, eventually stepped in. Sal apologized for the delay after we explained that we were hungry and ready to order. He offered complimentary shots as a gesture of goodwill, which sounded reasonable. However, they never arrived. I reminded him, and he promised to bring them shortly, yet once again disappeared without following through. We even had to get someone's attention to request something as basic as water. More concerning was the general demeanor of the serving staff. Several interactions felt unusually disjointed, distracted, and incoherent. Sal's conduct in particular raised questions about whether he was in an appropriate condition to be serving guests. I cannot speak to what was happening behind the scenes, but the overall impression was deeply unprofessional. The final disappointment involved my cousin's birthday dessert. We had ordered a chocolate lava cake and, after an excessive wait, had to flag Sal down to ask about it. His response was essentially, "Oh, you want it now?" Yes, after waiting that long, we certainly did. Eventually, someone from our group approached him to say we would rather close out. Suddenly, the cake was ready. We explicitly asked him to cancel it, and he agreed to remove it from the bill. Despite that, he brought it to our table anyway, and the dessert subsequently appeared on our bill again. Having to dispute a charge for something we had specifically asked to cancel was an especially frustrating way to end the evening. What makes this experience particularly disappointing is that I know Lighthouse Rooftop is capable of much better. I've experienced it firsthand. The views and atmosphere initially made me excited to return, but a beautiful setting can only carry an establishment so far. Hospitality, attentiveness, and professionalism are what ultimately earn customer loyalty. I also want to emphasize that repeat customers and word-of-mouth recommendations carry real value. I regularly recommend restaurants and venues within my personal network, and I also consider establishments for professional gatherings and corporate events. My first visit genuinely put Lighthouse Rooftop on that list. After this experience, I would hesitate to recommend it, let alone bring professional groups here. It's unfortunate because this was an opportunity to turn an impressed first-time guest into a loyal returning customer and a source of future business. Instead, we left questioning the establishment's service standards and overall management. I hope management takes this feedback seriously, particularly regarding staff conduct, service consistency, and the handling of guest complaints. Finding a restaurant this quiet on a Saturday night is surprising enough; delivering an experience like this only makes it harder to understand how an establishment expects to retain customers and generate repeat business. I genuinely would like to see Lighthouse Rooftop succeed, which is precisely why I'm taking the time to write this. However, based on this visit, I cannot confidently recommend it or consider bringing future professional gatherings here. A stunning view gets people through the door once. Exceptional hospitality is what brings them back.
