“I've been here a few times and it's a notch above the other sushi places in the area. They had uni, which was a treat - even if it didn't taste as good as the city. The sushi was fresh and rolls were creative. Hard rock was tasty. I'll continue to return here to try more things.“

“We just recently moved to Great Kills and this is one of my favorite go to spots for sushi. I go there with my family at least once a week and everything is always fresh and delicious.

The restaurant is always clean and staff is very friendly. Please give this place a try, you won't regret it.“

“Amazing, family-run business that never compromises on quality! Even as Omakase has grown, their sushi is always made with the freshest ingredients. I can’t wait to see how they expand upon their catering business!“

“This place is truly a hidden gem on Staten Island! I visited on my birthday, and the staff made it special with a handwritten card at my seat. The food was incredible, with 70% of ingredients imported directly from Japan. The entire team was welcoming and friendly, and the service was outstanding. Overall, it was a fantastic experience with great food and atmosphere.“

“This place is a gem! I liked it better than sushi that cost 3x as much, everything was really fresh and the special rolls were really creative combinations, we had the Krusty Krab roll and the Black Angel Roll and were blown away. The fried rice had a really great flavor too, a sign of a great chef to make fried rice memorable!! We eat sushi a lot and I've never felt so strongly about a place that I went and wrote a review, this is really something special!!“

“My family and I order take out from here all the time and let me tell you, they’re consistent. The food is always delicious and fresh, and the portions for the price are unmatched. Our favorite thing to get is the poke bowl combo with a sushi roll. This place just became our go to dinner spot when we’re hungry and too lazy to cook. Definitely recommend!“

“Great sushi! Always fresh :)“

“This cozy Asian fusion restaurant is a fantastic spot for a flavorful and relaxed meal. Each dish arrives fresh, with a creative blend of Asian flavors that keeps every bite interesting. The option to choose your spice level is a nice touch, striking a balance between enhancing the flavors and keeping the heat manageable. Perfect for those looking to explore a unique twist on Asian cuisine in a warm and inviting atmosphere!“

“Food is good. We ordered 2 different sushi and chicken katsu. One of the sushi was served raw (as most sushi are) and I can't eat them cause I am BF-ing my baby. We told the staff and they cooked them for us. Good food and descent price. The atmosphere is good and quiet for a date night with my husband.“

“Fantastic“

“Solid bowl that hit the spot and warmed the body on a cold January afternoon. Pickled mushroom provided a mild tang to offset the richness of the broth, jammy-ish egg, and fatty pork belly. Staff was friendly and readily answered menu questions“

“The main waitress was very kind and made some good food recommendations, alongside providing great overall service. The food was very good, and introduced me and my family to new and interesting variations compared to what we where you used too. This is a great comfy restaurant for a good meal.“

“Amazing tuna poke bowl! Will be back!“

“In town for an event, 8 of us went out for dinner. Everything was so delicious, the 3 of us still in town the next day went back the next night for round two.I personally enjoyed the Red Curry Chicken and Beef Pad Thai. Especially of note is their General Tso's Chicken which was ordered both nights, as it is mostly chicken, not cheap breading like a lot of other places. The Shrimp Shumi were also reordered on day two. The prices were completely reasonable as well. I would 100% return to this restaurant for round three.

Parking: Parking was easy as not a lot of people were there when we were, however I could see it getting crowded when busy.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is an outdoor ramp if needed.“

“Solid choice for hibachi and sushi. Food is seasoned well and not over powered with garlic or soy. We also enjoy that you get rice and noodles. Meat is always cooked well nothing was over cooked. The portions are a little on the smaller size however you do soup, salad, rice, veggies and noodles with your meat so it does make sense given all you get. Prices are also good for everything you are given.“
