“Perfection! Super ecstatic that we discovered this gem in Astoria. The quality of the food here is exceptional and the prices are decent for what you’re receiving. The chef is Japanese, as well as the staff, so expect the food to be authentic and everything from hygiene to service to be top-notch! We sat at the bar with Chef Kondo directly before us, preparing our dishes. He was all smiles and extremely friendly, glancing occasionally to check on customers. When I reached the deep fried prawn head rested on the side of my sashimi platter, he advised me to break it in half first. I really needed some tips because the spikes from the head seriously would’ve caused me some injury. Besides the sashimi, we also ordered the octopus carpaccio, uni, fatty tuna roll, salmon avocado and eel avocado rolls (mad rolls) and everything was impeccably made. Do yourself a favor and eat here!“

“Nice fusion place. The ramen is pretty decent and the teriyaki is good. Chicken wings are good and crunchy. They are pretty quick with orders whether you dine in or carry out. Fairly broad choices on the menu with lots of popular street food options and everything we've tried was at least pretty good or better. The boba tea here is also good and they let you select how much ice you want and what % of sweetness you like. All around solid place and I'm glad they're here.“

“So I came here for my birthday dinner and at first I did not want to eat there since I thought it will be a party vibe, but the lounge area wasn’t open. Which I get it since it was a Wednesday. But the Chef did not want us to leave disappointed, he did it all (Champagne, birthday sign, food, shots) all at a discounted price. & let me tell u the food did not disappoint. It was delicious! I was overwhelmed with his generosity. He really made my night special. And something I will always remember. Keep Being the kind person u are Wilmer. Good things will definitely come to u. I will be back. THANKS AGAIN!“

“Sakura has been our go-to for many years. We love their lunch specials: there’s a good variety of rolls and they are invariably delicious. The front desk staff are friendly. The reason for 3 stars for service is because more than once I opened the container at home ( like today) to discover that my husband’s rolls still had sesame seeds whereas I had explicitly asked for none due to a severe allergy of his. The fact that sometimes there are sesame seeds and other times - none, shows a lack of attention to a very important detail. I don’t have the time to go to the restaurant in person or to call my order in to ensure that this is taken care of. We will continue to order from Sakura and sincerely hope they pay better attention to people’s requests in their online orders.“

“the ginger salad was delicious. I also order calamari tempura .. sushi and sashimi was so fresh and delicious. will go again ..“

“It’s almost embarrassing how much I order from Kumo. Their teriyaki lunch platter is unbeatable pricewise and is so tasty. They know how to do tofu and salmon right and the rolls are always fresh. It’s a takeout spot so don’t plan to eat in. Food is ready quick and always hits the spot.“

“Abi has been my go-to Japanese in Astoria for nearly 10 years. They have hands down, THE best veg udon soup I've ever had. My partner and i order it regularly along with any of their many incredible vegan rolls. I wish they would label everything that's vegan as vegan, because they have an honestly impressive amount of options, and it's literally ALL good. Tofu nuggets, sweet potato, pumpkin, oh my... Their haru maki rolls are also vegan, and absolutely delicious.

Their service is helpful and kind. They called to clarify the type of tofu I wanted to add, and when something I wanted was NOT vegan. May you live forever, Abi!“

“Bai Sushi may seem like a small run-of-the-mill takeout restaurant from the outside, but they are so much more. The cozy atmosphere and welcoming staff make for a wonderful dining experience. The food is amazing (raw or cooked). There’s something for everyone who likes Sushi or Japanese cuisine. They also accommodate if you have dietary needs. Sit in or take out, DEFINITELY stop by!!!“

“Good food everything is well made“
