14 Best Sushi Bars in Albany

“We had a GREAT experience. We did the 17-courses, which I highly recommend. Head Chef Chakma is very skilled, and everything he gave us was delicious.

Most notably, he took my dietary restrictions very seriously. When I told him I had celiac disease and couldn't eat gluten, he carefully prepared my portions separately from the rest. He changed his gloves each time and made thoughtful substitutions to keep my meal safe.

We'll be back!“

“Okay so I didn’t go to the restaurant but I ordered the appetizer sampler and ramen online. It came in a cute package 🥰 and the food was great! I absolutely loved the sampler idea and the sauces were amazing. I haven’t dug into the ramen yet because I’m already full but I’m sure it is yummy. I will definitely have to try this place in person. Thank you!!“

“we love tengu asian bistro! it's our favorite place for sushi! especially today...I think we received the best grab Rangoon ever!! idk what is different about it, but it almost tastes like there's a coconut flavor in them as well as the dipping sauce. they were great to begin with, but whatever was done differently today was even better, keep doing it!“

“This place is amazing. I didn't know what to expect going in to the all you can eat restaurant. I was happily surprised that it's not buffet style. Servers and bussers. The restaurant is nicely styled and comfortable. The greeters and wait staff couldn't have been kinder or more professional. $28.99 is worth every penny just for that. The longest we had to wait between orders was no more than 5 minutes. The food was fresh, perfectly presented and absolutely delicious! I really can't find the superlatives to describe it. Everything combined made this experience one of the best outings I've ever had. I HIGHLY recommend this place.“

“We had a lovely family gathering in the Tatami room. Food was delicious & service was wonderful. It was a delightful afternoon. Great way to say goodby to the pandemic. Thanks Jackie!“

“My daughter and I have been here twice now, and both times agreed that the sushi was excellent. I don’t know what it is, but it tastes really fresh. I honestly thought tonight’s sushi was probably the best I’ve ever had. The atmosphere is nice as well. Looking forward to coming back.“

“Ny friends and I met in Albany to celebrate after finishing up the paperwork for retirement from NY State employment. The appointment ran a bit later than expected but the restaurant was still able to accommodate us for a late lunch. Its such a nice, eclectic space and menu! Top notch service from our friendly, knowledgeable waitress. A great meal!“

“A jewel of a discovery. When we found other establishments on New Scotland Ave closing their dining rooms by 9pm on a Saturday night, SakeCafe was graciously open, serving delicious food (we tried a little of everything from sushi to Udon) and with the best tableside service I've experienced in literally years. Oh, and the hot sake is splendid and at $6/bottle an unbeatable value. SO happy to know they are just around the corner. Sorry bao buns place but you lose, SakeCafe wins.“

“Arigato this place was good“

“My husband and I absolutely love Samurai. The food is fresh and delicious and the owner is the nicest guy. Highly recommend!“

“Very courteous staff and great food for an amazing price.🤘“

“very nice staff and owner is very kind. try the toro tuna belly sashimi... it is the best I have eaten in all of the usa“

“Fantastic sushi! The "sushi for two" could easily be sushi for three, and the variety in that option is perfect for anyone with a mild tempermant in regards to flavoring and fish choices. Inviting and friendly environment, would highly recommend.

Parking: In a shopping center.“

“It far exceeded my expectations. Will definitely return!“
