“My family arrived at Sushi and Kimchi late in the evening right before their closing, but the host welcomed us and informed us what was available. We were so grateful. The food was authentic and delicious (My 80 year old Korean mom approved them too!!) and the service was beyond imaginable. We are very jealous of locals who can go eat there often. We will definitely go back when we drive through the town again. Thank you!!!!“

“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!“

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

“First time trying after a friend’s recommendation. We ordered five plates. Wow. Loved every bite. Their food is fresh and delicious. The vegetable gyoza was the best I’ve had. Warm reception at the front counter, even for a take out order. Tucked in the middle of one of the quaintest blocks in New York. Can’t wait to go back.“

“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!“

“Delicious food and excellent service“

“I love it!! And the place is clean“

“Good food ,good service“

“This is the place if you want authentic, high quality, Japanese food. The small dishes on the separate menu are really delightful.

Prices reflect food quality. Be prepared to pay for the best all around Japanese food in the area. I thoroughly enjoyed the food and the atmosphere.

They run it like fine dining, not like a casual sushi bar. So they have strict rules around noise, noisy kids, and cell phones. Don't expect to bring your kid and set him up with an ipad with the volume on. Seems reasonable. No outside food, no exceptions. Seems reasonable.

The servers were polite, no issues in this department.

A real gem of a restaurant.“

“I’ve been coming to hinode since I was a kid. the sushi is always fresh and tasty. I live 45 minutes away and still take a trip over whenever I want to treat myself to good food. I will be returning in a few days for my birthday.

Also saw someone left a review about there not being a bathroom which made me laugh, there is a bathroom and Ive washed my hands in it every time Ive visited since I was a little girl - they must have the wrong place.“

“Great food abs great environment!!“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Great friendly staff. Panini was awesome“

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

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

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

“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“

“Excellent food Excellent service Excellent prices!“

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

“Very good food, idk why people keep saying they get mad if you ask for extra sauce, you can take all the sauce you want its in a bucket to the side.Food is amazing, portions are huge, great lunch for someone very hungry but could easily feed 2 feeding 2 for 11.99 on this day and age is a good deal!“

“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??“

“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...“

“I had such a wonderful experience at this sushi restaurant. The atmosphere is calm and tranquil, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. Located right on Main Street in Franklin and Nyack, it’s convenient and welcoming from the moment you walk in.
The sushi itself is outstanding — incredibly fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. The rolls are not only delicious but also creative, with unique combinations that really stand out. Every bite tasted like it was crafted with care and attention to detail.
If you’re looking for a spot with a peaceful vibe and absolutely top-notch sushi, this is the place to go. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“My favorite restaurant!“

“Came here to eat in New Year’s Day. Miso soup was so good. We ordered many hand yolks between two people. There was one tool I didn’t like too much I can’t remember the name now but all the rest were fresh and delicious.
They even gave us a cute ice cream dessert“

“Beautiful presentation, excellent service, great atmosphere our new favorite place !!“

“If you like sushi and really delicious and we'll prepared food. This is the pla e for you. I usually order some sushi rolls, the fish soup and my favorite is the vegetables in garlic sauce. Absolutely delicious. They also make the best cheese cake around.“

“Sushi was wonderful and the staff was attentive and knew what to recommend.“

“The kids loved it and they even ate“

“I love this restaurant the food, service and ambiance is Amazing 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩“

“One of the only places around that is Asian food with a nice atmosphere. The dumplings were especially delicious, and the salad and miso soup were especially good. Then the bento box is always fun. The only negative was that the teriyaki chicken could have a little more char on it.“

“Great food, awesome lunch specials, drinks are yummy and the service is always so nice and friendly. I go there a lot with my nephew and they always take care of us and so friendly with him and kind ☺️“

“We go for the all you can eat and it is always an amazing experience. The food is fresh & delicious and the service is outstanding. In today’s world they have managed to keep the pricing so reasonable. We went tonight and my kids were treated like royalty (and they don’t even eat sushi) the whole staff was incredible and we were so grateful. We’ve had very different experiences at sushi spots when it comes to the service.. this place is a gem. We will continue to bring our friends here because everyone should know about this place!! 10/10“

“Good lunch selections just that their miso soup is so salty. Otherwise everything else is very good. I had salmon teriyaki with California rolls. It came with side salad , miso soup and steamed veggies. Salmon size serving is big for lunch . Very happy with the order. Cheap for $14.“

“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!“

“My experience here was great. I grew up in the area but had no Idea about this absolutely authentic restaurant. The atmosphere is really nice and gives such a homey feeling. I feel free to express myself and talk amongst my peers over a good home cooked meal. Eating here I can really taste the love in the food. The service was not only efficient but excellent. Will be coming here again.“

“Very friendly very good food“
