Also, the bill is reasonable. I tell about this spot with no doubt.“

“Just finished my teriyaki steak box. Has to be the best I have ever had. Fresh, crisp, distinct flavors all on one plate. I do not usually write reviews but was so impressed that I had to congratulate them. Well done!“

“Great Korean food and sushi. Soonduboo was tasty and balanced, spicy pork bibimbap was generous and perfectly crispy on the bottom, eel and avocado sushi was tasty, and the agadashi tofu was delightful. Owner was a bit busy but very nice. Great evening.“

“I love it!! And the place is clean“

“Brought my parents here for dinner. I ordered chirashi (sashimi style fish over rice), my dad ordered a sushi combo, and my mom got the broiled mackerel (saba). Food was delicious and the atmosphere was great — restaurant is nicely decorated and they were playing soft jazz music in the background. Service was friendly and prompt, I also had the opportunity to order our meals in Japanese which was a lot of fun. All in all, Fujinoya is my favorite Japanese restaurant in Westchester and I would highly recommend it!“

“My partner told me this was the best sushi place ever, so they brought me here. After trying their Sakura roll and honey truffle roll, I can confidently say that I have surpassed the human form and ascended into heaven. This is the BEST sushi I have tried. The setting is very cute and the waitress is very kind. I highly recommend coming and trying the honey truffle roll!“

“The Umami Bomb is exactly that. the bomb (1990). So good back to pre-pandemic portions and tasty ingredients. Thank God you exist.“

“Accommodating service but the food- none of it was particularly good.Steak wasn’t the greatest cut or quality. Chicken was flavorful enough so perhaps that’s the star of the show. Tempura wasn’t comparable quality to other places in and around NyC at a similar price point. Ginger salad was decent, fried rice was mediocre.Unfortunately nothing impressed enough to have me want to come back but that’s as a non sushi eater so I leave 4 stars because this place seems highly rated by those who enjoy sushi and I don’t want to significantly impact their rating for something outside of their namesake.“

“Delicious food and excellent service“

“I feel a need to respond to the crazy person who complained about the bathroom issues experience at Hinode. The people that own and run, this restaurant could not be more accommodating, helpful, and generous. Your experience had absolutely nothing to do with the outstanding quality of their food and service. If you have enough time to write that completely unrelated review and post it. Then you should find the time to consult with a physician and address your own personal bathroom issues. Regardless of your situation, ultimately they were kind enough to allow you to use their restroom.“

“Great food. Bento box is my fiancé & my favorite. Once a week We order.“

“Good food ,good service“

“Went in with no expectations, came out a total fan. The atmosphere is very warm, and the food was incredible. My favorite was the salmon, they were prepped with the texture in mind, giving them a soft chew every bite. If you want high quality sushi, you might want to give this place a try.“

“Always delicious & enjoyable. My ‘go to’ place when friends come to town.“

“Absolutely the best sushi and most authentic Japanese food in all of Westchester. This restaurant is truly a hidden gem. The quality of the fish is always top-notch, fresh, and flavorful. You can tell the chefs take great pride in their craft, as every dish is presented beautifully and tastes incredible. The service is equally fantastic—attentive, friendly, and always welcoming. Whether you're a sushi lover or just looking to try something new, this place is a must-visit“

“One of the best Ramen Bars I’ve ever been to. The flavors across the menu are unreal. The Spicy Miso Ramen w/ Pork Belly in particular was one of the best soup broths I’ve ever tasted. The service staff could not have been more friendly and courteous. The quaint setting and atmosphere lend themselves to almost feel like sitting at one big family style dinner table.“

“Our favorite sushi spot - love and crave their red dragon rolls. Also their salmon fried rice yummmm“

“Great food abs great environment!!“

“Great friendly staff. Panini was awesome“

“Samurai is a great go to spot. We normally do take out. Portion sizes are much smaller when taking out, at least when it comes to habatchi.

The wait staff were amazing so attentive and helpful. Beer was super cold and the leche martini is highly recommended.

The food however was a bit salty, and came out very spread out. The meat had little flavor…be sure to ask for lite soy sauce.

The sushi however is great. Anything on the menu.

Kid-friendliness: High chairs were accessible. Staff were so great with our four kids“

“Had the Omakase Style yesterday. Was amazing. Highly recommend this place“

“Excellent food Excellent service Excellent prices!“

“Honestly best sushi & sashimi I ever had in NJ. No joke“

“This is the second time I ate at Shiki Sushi and Yakitori. First time, I came with my friends, who live a block away, for lunch.

This time I came with my family. We had many special requests. Not only did they carefully honor every one, the food was fast, delicious and served with a friendly and positive attitude, despite the fact that one of my kids was having a moment.

The food is great, service even better. They clearly care about their customers, and serving high quality food, which might explain why people who live here love this place.“

“I went their with my wife, the staff were super friendly
Thou we went there late and they close by 9:45
But they offered to stay late
And put all this aside
The sushii taste hits all the spots for me and my wife
definitely will go again??“

“This little place is an absolute jem. Of course great and fresh sushi. But the service is second to none. Li Cheng, who goes by Eric, was one of the best servers I ever had in my life. He is like a lightning bolt; he is nonstop gliding across the dining room. He saw in advance everything we wanted. Unbelievable experience! We will be back. And I suggest you try this place out.“

“My favorite restaurant!“

“Great place. A million choices, reaching from delicious Thai (love the Thai Curry soup) or Chinese soups to amazing Cold Noodles to fantastic sushi choices. My fave main is the Crispy (red snapper) fish, which has an amazing soy sweet sauce replete with bok choy, crispy noodles, and scallions. Tons of other choices. Wait staff is great.We are repeat customers many times over. A regular spot for us...“

“We’ve been here many times, and the service is always excellent. It’s a great spot to visit, especially if someone in the group isn’t a fan of seafood. Although it’s a seafood restaurant, they offer a variety of delicious Korean dishes. Our favorites are 김치찌개, 돈까스, and 한치회무침—which almost tastes like 물회, just without the soup. All the rolls are fantastic as well. Highly recommend!“
