“Excellent food wish I could afford to go there all the time“

“Great menu with so many choices very different than what you get from other Japanese restaurants in the area. I ordered much too much, but was very happy with my selection. The menu includes pictures of their sushi appetizers, special rolls and many of their offerings which I found really helpful. Started with Miso soup, full of flavor, seaweed and tofu.The Naruto and Christmas rolls were great, full of flavor and the presentation was beautiful. I also ordered Shrimp and Veggie Tempura - tasty, fresh but I thought had too much batter for my taste. Pricing is similar to other places, but the selection is incredible and the portions are not skimpy. They also offer lunch specials, noodles, soup, etc. but the special rolls are a must. This will be my go to place for sushi in the Danbury area. Highly recommend!!!

4 stars based on the Tempura“

“Always fresh & delicious! The best sushi around“

“Went there for first time ever. Took the ACYE option. Salad was good. Soup was good. All food tasted fresh and delicious. Yakatori was good. Sashimi was good. Sushi rolls were excellent. Lots of flavor. Portions are smallish, but allows you to sample more of the menu. Felt the price point was accurate. Staff was attentive and great. Will definitely go again. Ps. Green tea was a nice complement to the meal.“

“Love the sushi at Minami! Fresh, delicious, and great prices! The all you can eat is a great deal if you’re extra hungry.“

“My friend and I had lunch today here. Yokohama Restaurant is wonderful. The food is delicious, the wait staff courteous and friendly, the prices are very reasonable and the restaurant is casual with nice background music. It is not a fancy place at all, but that didn't matter to us. We shared the steamed vegetable dumplings which were delicate and delicious, the fried calamities which was very crunchy with large pieces of squid and the best I've ever had. We each got a box lunch which is $15 and includes 3 shumai, 4 pieces of California roll with wasabi and pickled ginger, white rice and the main event - mine being the shrimp tempera included 2 huge shrimp and vegetables tempera. My friend had the chicken teriyaki box lunch and both were delicious. And somehow we decided to get dessert, and split the mango-raspberry sorbet which was lovely. We will definitely return to Yokohama!!!“

“Amai Sushi has the best quality fish and seafood in Brookfield! Amber, the owner is wonderful. She takes time to suggest and explain offerings. I recently had the pleasure of the 10 course Omekase. What a beautiful a scrumptious meal! A birthday treat from a dear friend. Definitely worth the splurge. Buttery sushi, delicious uni (sea urchin roe) and a small piece of highest quality Kobe beef. Great king crab and avocado appetizer and scallop hand roll. Caramel custard dessert. Delicious chilled plum wine. Worth the splurge!“

“Took visiting friends here for dinner and had a good time. We had a couple of vegetarians in the group and they had got options as well. Service was fast and the chef was very nice - he entertained with the performance while also being friendly. The cocktails were good and we left the place stuffed after the meal.“

“I’ve been trying to come here for late lunch, and I couldn’t ever make it since they close at 2:30. So, I finally made it here today. The wonton soup was good, with a thin wonton wrap and a good amount of pork filling. And I had my usual Thai curry chicken, which left me satisfied and happy. It’s a husband-and-wife team, and they’re so nice.“

“very delicious food 😋 staff very friendly. I highly recommend 🙏🏼👌🏼“
