Chikurin is a restaurant that offers a delightful dining experience with a variety of options on the menu. Highlights include the Chicken Katsu Lunch Bento, 3 Rolls Lunch Special (Sweet Potato Roll, Spicy Salmon Roll, Spicy Tuna Roll), and plenty of vegetarian choices. Customers praise the freshness of the sushi, with many considering it the best sushi spot in Sheepshead Bay. The restaurant is popular for both dine-in and takeout, featuring a large selection of special rolls and an impressive oyster selection.
Regulars enjoy all-time favorites like the Sashimi deluxe, salmon & tuna tartare, and the salad version with avocado. While the food presentation remains beautiful, some recent diners have noted inconsistencies in freshness, with a few experiencing stale sushi. However, the overall quality of the food is superb, and the attentive service, including hot tea and iced water, enhances the experience. With a variety of cocktails available, Chikurin remains a hit for all ages, making it a great choice for a casual meal or a special occasion. The atmosphere, featuring an aquarium and bamboo decor, is also well-liked, along with the highly praised green tea ice cream. The restaurant can accommodate small groups comfortably, while larger gatherings can be hosted on the second floor without disrupting the main dining area.
