“Top notch sushi in a traditional Japanese sushi bar. Not glitzy, but for me it's all about the sushi. Service is fantastic, my green tea cup never got below half full before they were topping it up. Even the green tea and miso soup were really good and full of flavor, well above average.“

“I love it!! And the place is clean“

“Our favorite sushi restaurant ever! And if you're not into sushi, there is something for you too - tempura, hibachi, etc. So very delicious and they are so nice there!“

“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!“

“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.“

“absolutely delicious service was great .🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤“

“I don’t know about the rest of you all, but this is by far, the best Japanese Cuisine place in the Area. Some of the best items from their menu The Angry Dragon Sushi, The Shrimp tempura, and the Spicy Salmon rolls.

Also try the gyoza and the amazing Kani salad (regular or spicy)

Also the presentation is outstanding, and don’t forget to try their amazing Thai ice Tea which is homemade. 100% recommended. 🫶🏻

PS: ask for their Fried Oreo Dessert, you won’t regret it😊“

“Fogama is my favorite Japanese restaurant in Westchester or in New York. Excellent sushi and plenty of cooked choices too. They al ays have some amazing specials. I have been going to this restaurant since it opened and it gets consistently better and never disappoints.“

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

“Excellent Asian fusion cuisine and great ambiance-at reasonable prices! Great drinks too!“

“Excellent food, nice service. Oko is a small, quiet place with excellent Japanese food. I recommend ordering the chef's choice of nigiri. I also recommend the spicy crispy salmon and tuna. It's an expensive place, but it's worth it for the quality, flavor and 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.“

“This site is my number one place. Of all restaurants I know I like it most. I always suggests to my friends to go to this restaurant. everytime I want to go to a proper supper, this place comes right away to my head. extremely good and varied food and a rich menu.well mannered crew, and great spirit. Also, the bill is reasonable. I tell about this spot with no doubt.“

“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.“

“Great food abs great environment!!“

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

“A really nice and cozy place to buy asian groceries and snacks at a cheap price!Musashi is the ramen store, and Maruichi is the convenience store. They have an open wall between, so you can walk through.It's a great place to go with a friend to get decent food at great prices.“

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

Vegetarian options: the ramen broth is veg“

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

“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.“

“It’s a tradition in my family!! We always have the best time. It’s local and the people make it special. They were all awesome to my Granddaughter . I’m a customer and a fan.“

“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“

“Great food and ambiance! You must try it!!!“

Our family goes frequently and we never get bored since there are so many great rolls, boxes & appetizers in addition to delicious fresh sashimi.The wait staff are friendly, efficient and polite, the restaurant is always clean, and the fish is always very fresh.“

“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.“

“Very friendly staff and great food at a reasonable all you can eat price“

“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??“

“My favorite Japanese restaurant. Chef Bing is not only talented but also creative. Food is delicious and wonderfully presented. I would highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Great sushi and we order all the time from here! Shrimp tempura is excellent and they have so many options to fit everyone’s preferences. One thing I would like to note is that sometimes when you order for pickup they do forget things (ex. spicy mayo, which you have to pay extra for) so make sure you check the bag to ensure you have all of your order, but they are also very busy and things like this happen :) Great food and great service, looking forward to coming back.“

“Hands down best Chinese food around the area.I usually make my own Chinese food but when I’m not feeling it I always buy from here only!The people are friendly and food is tasty. We have received stale fried noodles before that’s probably the worst thing.“

“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!“

“My favorite restaurant!“

“Dropped in for the first time. Excellent sashimi, killer wasabi shumai appetizer, simply wonderful service! Need to try everything on the menu....“

“STELLA QUINTINO AND JASMINE CAMPOS ARE LOSERS AND SAD PATHETIC PIECES OF FLESH. The food is amazing and there service is great. The two workers are so sweet and kind. This place is a diamond in the rocks. And Stella quintino and jasmine campos can go screw “

“Got off the train and grabbed lunch. Highly recommend Kiku Sushi. Excellent service, food and atmosphere. Reasonably pricing as well.“

“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!“

“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...“
