“I like to go with friends to this restaurant with my warmest recommendations. I go their often. This recommendation is always successful. The the food there is fantastic and the stuff is generous and cooperative. always when we eat in this place we pass a pleasing time. warmly recommended.“

“Always great food! We always hit this spot when we are in or going through Boston!“

“Yosselin was our server and she was the best! She was super sweet and understandable of our bad English.

Vegetarian options: Super nice

Dietary restrictions: Absolutely wonderful

Parking: Perfect“

“I had a great date night, it was our first time there and it was excellent. I was happy with everything from the food to the service from our server José. He was on point with everything, would love to have him next time again. But even the music was great, but obviously the food was the best of it all. Everyone should definitely check it out.“

“Authentic Thai and Tremptatious!

I loved the ground pork stir-fry basil here. Unlike other spots that use big chunks of pork, they use perfectly ground pork, which I prefer. The flavors are spot-on, and the ingredients are top-notch. If you want real Thai taste in Boston, this is the place!“

“The food was amazing, subtle flavors with every bite. The restaurant itself is cute, with modern vibes. Walk through Shore Leave to find it. Chef Vincent Cheng and his assistant prepared every “bite” (14 in total) in front of us. At the end of the set menu, we could order more bites (at extra cost) if still hungry. Expensive but sublime.“

“The sushi was delicious, but the price is not for the faint of heart! A nice treat, and the best quality fish I've had outside of Japan. Chef Mike worked diligently to deliver a great experience. I also liked the lack of pretentiousness in his shop. I imagine that if someone were to ask for a fork, he'd hardly bat an eye. The focus here is really on the food, and he checks that box.“

“A hidden gem. The portions are generous, and the fish is very fresh. I got a sashimi combo and was pleasantly surprised at how much fish was on the plate and how pretty the presentation was. The sushi rice was perfectly seasoned, tangy with a touch of sweetness.“

“I am simply amazed at the quality and presentation of the dining selections at this wonderful addition to Kenmore square. The service is top notch. You'll only be a stranger here once.“

“We actually showed up in the area to eat somewhere else for lunch, but it was closed so stumbled into here blind. Boy were we lucky!

It has a very unassuming entrance, so unassuming I walked past it at first, but it belies a very pleasant, very atmospheric little restaurant in the back. I ordered the two roll lunch special with Spicy Roll and an Autumn roll (the last being a recommendation from the server). It came with some miso soup of course, and I also ordered some tagedashi tofu as an app.

I’d go meal by meal, but I’d repeat myself. It was all delicious in very different ways. The tagedashi was so savory and delicious. The spicy roll was a little combustible punch of flavor while the autumn roll was subtle and sweet. All of it just really really delicious. Even the miso soup was unusually good.

The only thing I’d complain about was that the green tea was not particularly to my liking. But that’s nothing compared to how across the board great everything else was. Service was lovely and unobtrusive. Just an all around great experience. Can’t recommend more highly.“

“We have been going to Uchi since the opening week, and the food and service have only improved over time. We get takeout most weeks, and have enjoyed every item we've ordered, from various appetizers (we love the shrimp shumai) to entrees of sushi, ramen, fried rice, etc., to the fried ice cream dessert. Everything is delicious, the staff are friendly and recognize regulars, and we always enjoy ourselves when we eat in.“

“Nice and chill environment.“

“This restaurant experience was refined, very pleasant, and tasty the whole way through. We were sat immediately even without a reservation and treated to complementary edamame mousse which was unique and light. We then ordered a few delicious sushi rolls with the highlight being the Waygu Beef - which even makes my mouth water now thinking about it. We really enjoyed the ambiance and the staff was incredibly tentative and kind. Perfect for a date night!“

“the lunchbox meal was delicious! reasonable prices“

“Food was solid high quality sushi with creative preparation and freshness. Menu can be overwhelming so I’d advise having a look before you go there. Our server was lively and informative. Prices are generally high but acceptable for the occasional visit or event. The decor was modern and comfortable.

Parking: We lucked out finding parking a few blocks away but it would have taken a while had we not happen upon the space. Make sure you leave enough time to park.

Kid-friendliness: Perfectly acceptable for kids as it’s not a quiet environment, but you probably wouldn’t want to as it is upscale and everyone is seated.“

“Best sushi I’ve had! Friendly staff; amazing food- lots of choice, interesting combinations, fresh, gluten free friendly (they make their own soy sauce even!); casual vibe; beautiful space.“

“Excellent sushi and pretty good wine. Would go again. Would I do a 30+ min detour just to dine here? Probably not, hence 4 of 5 stars. So if you are in the area: good choice.“

“TL;DR: TAKEOUT REVIEW. Everything was so good! Ikura was the starOrdered takeout/delivery on our last night in Boston for our late night snack. We had gone earlier in the day, but their chef's were not doing ala carte orders yet (they had just opened). But the store has a good selection of grab-and-go items from sushi, to drinks, to other merch like soy sauce and snacks.FOOD:~Chef's Sampler (5/5) and Signature Set (5/5): each of these sets came with 5 pieces of nigiri, and they were all so good. Each of them were topped with a unique seasoning/sauce, and they accompanied each of the fish so well!Salmon don (5/5): came with a great assortment of salmon, all of it very fresh (salmon belly was my fave). But the star of this dish to me was the ikura and the cucumbers. SO DELICIOUSGreat quality sushi, great portions, delicious flavors, and affordable prices! Definitely a must visit!“

“As good as it gets for sushi around Boston. Super fresh, good amount of options but not overwhelming. Poke bowls are awesome as well. Any time I pick it up directly the staff are super nice and helpful as well. If you’re looking for top-quality sushi, without paying downtown prices, order it here.“

“Some of the highest quality fish I've had in the Boston area outside of Uni and Oya. The only thing they need to fix is the pace (one person shouldn't get multiple rolls at once and the nori should always arrive crisp) and order (leanest to fattiest)“

“Friendly service with awesome sushi. Best around town.“

“Mind-Blowing Culinary Experience at UNI Dining at UNI is nothing short of extraordinary. Chef Take's talent is truly remarkable, turning every dish into a masterpiece. The sashimi is unbelievably fresh, each slice practically melts in your mouth, showcasing the incredible quality and craftsmanship that UNI is known for. One of the standout dishes was the Foie Gras sushi with pop rocks and strawberry. The combination of flavors and textures was nothing short of genius—a perfect balance of richness, sweetness, and a playful pop that left me in awe. It’s a daring creation that speaks to Chef Take’s innovative spirit. My personal favorite, though, has to be the Toro topped with caviar. The buttery, luxurious texture of the Toro paired with the briny burst of caviar is an experience I won't soon forget. It's the kind of sushi that dreams are made of. The service at UNI is also top-notch. The staff is attentive, knowledgeable, and makes you feel like a VIP from start to finish. They are well-versed in the menu and make excellent recommendations, ensuring that your dining experience is seamless and memorable. UNI is, without a doubt, a dining destination that should be on every food lover’s bucket list. Chef Take’s talent shines through in every dish, making it an unforgettable experience.“

“My better half and I visited this spot, and I can confidently say it’s the best sushi I’ve had in the Boston-Cambridge area. My only regret is not ordering the Sakana sushi boat—but there’s always next time!

She thinks it’s some of the best sushi she’s ever had, and she’s a regular.“

“Brookline is so lucky to have this local gem in the community!! Super Fusion never misses - I get takeout from here frequently and it's always such a nice experience. The sushi is fresh, delicious, reasonably priced and the people who own this store are such kind folks. The super fusion maki combo and crispy crab wontons are my favorite things to order but I've enjoyed everything I've tried here! I'm always happy to give this place my business - they're really nice people who produce consistently high quality food.“

“A  reliably fresh poke spot in Porter Square.

For the past few months, Ono Pokebar has been one of my go-to delivery spots for poke bowls, and that’s largely because of one key factor: consistency. The number one thing I look for in a poke bar is reliable portion sizes. When these places first open, they usually get great reviews for their generous servings, but give it a few months, and the portions start shrinking until they’re no different from any other run-of-the-mill poke spot. Sure, creative toppings and unique sauces can add some flair, but if I can’t count on consistent portions from visit to visit, I’m less likely to return.

That’s what sets Ono Pokebar apart. Most of the time, the bowls are served up by members of the owner’s family, so the portions are reliably the same every time. While they might not be the biggest bowls out there, they’re just the right size to leave me satisfied without worrying if I’ll still be hungry afterward.

When it comes to their poke, Ono Pokebar delivers exactly what you’d expect from a solid spot—fresh fish, flavorful sauces, and all the crunchy toppings that make a bowl satisfying. While they don’t have a ton of unique toppings, it’s the kind of reliable place I’d dash to the moment a poke craving hits.

Parking: Porter square plaza parking lot“

“This is my favorite sushi place, bar none. The food is a great value given the quantity and quality, and the customer service couldn't be better. They recognize me when I come to pick up lunch despite only going about once a month, and the staff is always so friendly. I recommend it to all my coworkers, and always look forward to my lunches from there.“

“The greatest sushi in Boston hands down. I absolutely love this place. I've been coming here for years, and no matter how many new sushi restaurants I try, I always wind up back at Symphony Sushi. Highest marks. Highest possible recommendation.“

“really good sushi if you’re looking for a quick bite! service is super fast and portions are great!

i would order sushi instead of the poke bowls as they’re more tasty/flavorful. the yogurt drinks were a little too sweet but that’s personal preference

would definitely be ordering here again if i’m looking to eat some sushi in the local area :)“

“The food at Fuji is outstanding. Far and away the best fusion Japanese food in Newton and around.“

“My favorite spot to order a sushi delivery feast. The portions are larger than expected for the price. It's thoughtfully packaged so everything's separated and the right temp on arrival. Flavors are out of control good!! Don't miss the Idaho Roll.“

“The atmosphere, food, service and the team that works there are great. I will go back to try more of the delicious menu items.“

“Let me start with the staff, very friendly and welcoming. The best I've seen in Boston thus far. So thank you for the great hospitality Bosso.
The food was great. Their hand rolls are delicious. I also had hokkaido croquettes; these were special. I would definitely come back and try more of their dishes.“

“Just had a fantastic dinner at Ruka.. our first visit! Our server, Mike, was outstanding! Funny & made excellent recommendations! We (2 people) shared the crispy rock shrimp sushi, tuna poke, lomi lomi sushi, seared bok choy, and wagyu steak. For dessert we had the fried dough! Holy cow, everything was amazing!!! I look forward to coming to Ruka again!“

“My favorite family owned restaurant. The service is great always and very homey. They are very fast with orders and all in all a hidden gem. Try their takoyaki and all their maki combos are great I’ve tried all. Their topoki is quiet descent as well.“

“This was one of the BEST omakase experiences I have ever had. The attention to detail was extraordinary. I ate at several two and three star Michelin restaurants last summer in France and I was happier with my dining experience at Umami. The quality of ingredients is absolutely stellar and it is truly a treat for all the senses. Go!!“

“If you want sushi or just a date night, this is the place! Try their unagi if you are adventurous with food! The service is excellent!“

“It's almost the only Mazesoba restaurant in downtown Boston, and the rolls and Mazesoba are delicious!! However, the inside of the store is small and there is a long line on weekend evenings, so you have to wait outside and it is very cold in the winter.“

“Love them. Highly recommend the spicy eel coconut maki.“

“Wonderful array of menu options. I defaulted to special pho, which was flavorful with lots of quality cuts of meat. Looking forward to my next visit and chance to further explore the menu. P.S. the server was very helpful with recommendations! �“

“Great food & staff. Parking is a challenge but worth it.“

“We tried making rolls and they were really good. Freshly prepared and reasonably priced. Service is more geared towards delivery and looked under staffed. Atmosphere is an opportunity. The sitting area is decent and entry etc can be improved.“

“The best in Boston.“

“I really like this Japanese restaurant! I was in a hurry today so I just ordered takeout. Eel and beef tongue Don is very delicious and authentic. This makes me miss the eel rice and beef tongue that I had in Kyoto and Shanghai many years ago. They were tender and juicy, absolutely fresh and delicious! Volcano Maki is also amazing. The prawn tempura is crispy, tender and delicious, mixed with the rice, tobiko and tuna wrapped around it, making it unforgettable. The environment in the store is also very elegant. Next time I will definitely invite my relatives and friends to the store to enjoy the delicious food.“

“best friend rice in Winthrop!“

“This delicious restaurant is located near the Central Station of the MRT Red Line. I came here for lunch this time and ordered Monfish fried rice-chicken. The portion was not a lot, but it tasted delicious. There was quite a lot of chicken, and the rice was fried quickly over high heat and was very fragrant. , and kale to increase the taste.
Visiting again for the second time, I ordered Thai drunken chicken noodle. The chicken was delicious, the noodles were tender and elastic, and the overall flavor was spicy and delicious.

“stopped by this place as i was walking by and dined in with a friend. we shared the sushi. valentines roll was really good, so was the cosmo. i could kill ten of the onigiris. super filling and tasty. service was very nice and everything tasted fresh. no major complaints, its worth a visit if you're nearby, hungry, and want something light.“

“The potatoes were really cool textured, nice crisp and cube shape is interesting. The flavor was great, can never go wrong with the mayo and eel sauce and fish flakes.The volcano roll was a great portion size, and lots of good scallop meat, would recommend“

“What might one expect from a a subterranean sushi den featuring the all-star Kenta Katagai? Nothing but the best, of course! Chef Katagai belongs to an inner circle of the world's grand masters, channelling all his passion and expertise into his sushi, shaping each and every piece to perfection in view of diners. The decor and service, just like the meal, elevate the silence and purity of the materials used.
ありがとう - arigatō.“

“Best sushi I’ve had in Boston and surrounding area.I love sushi, so the quality of my sushi is important to me. Ive been to numerous sushi places around the city, you name it I’ve been there. Nothing, and I mean nothing compares to new sushi Allston. Not to mention the prices are great aswell. Customer service is amazing, the sushi chef knows the order I always get, he even throws a free spicy miso(which is amazing) whenever I place an order.I would highly recommend this place over any other sushi restaurants, even the high end ones.“
