“This the 2nd time I was here and they do not disappoint. The 1st pic was the pork soup, the 2nd pic which is fron my 1st visit was the wonton soup which is my favorite. The pork one is good, but the soup tastes like gravy it was a bit much for me. And the 3rd pic is the chips very light I luv love them. Oh, and I had a glass of mohito“

“Delicious! The Lunch Bento Box is huge and very reasonably priced for all that you get. 1st you are served a small mixed greens salad with a very tasty homemade ginger dressing. Next was a bowl of miso soup, also very good. Then a beautiful leaf shaped dish arrived with the most delicious full sized sushi roll. We had the vegetable tempura roll that had tempura broccoli, zucchini and sweet potato in it. After that course, the actual Bento box arrived with sliced NY strip steak teriyaki. Cooked perfectly. There was also a portion of white rice, 3 shumai pieces and if that wasn't enough: there was also a section with tempura shrimp, pumpkin, zucchini and sweet potato. Needless to say we walked out of here stuffed and very satisfied. The price was extremely reasonable for ALL that you get and everything was tasty and fresh. Definitely worth going to. And the restaurant has a very calming decor.“

“The best sushi you will ever have. The rest of the food is just as good. Friendly helpful staff. This is my family’s favorite spot.“

“Very nice staff and good food“

“Ate here for the second time last night...loud (crowded full on a Friday night) but we were still able to hear each other. Food has been very good both times...very fresh, very tasty. Best miso soup I've ever had, but shumai was bland. We polished off two special rolls -- Holy Tuna and American Dream -- and thoroughly enjoyed them. I had the pomegranate cocktail and would have loved another but I am on Weight Watchers now, lol! Service was courteous but split between the servers, and rushed due to the crowd, but everything came quickly with precise artistry and the hot foods were served good and hot...no complaints at all about the food quality, which is why this place has such a great reputation. Of course, we'll come again!“

“Teriyaki Express has been around for a long time, but recently as of Feb this year they're under new ownership. The new owner are so friendly and they make you feel like they're you're friends and you're coming over to eat at their house. I got a spicy tuna roll & salmon avocado roll with spicy mayo. I love that their fish is always really fresh with their rice is so warm and fragrant and perfectly cooked. Their food is always so satisfying. Their spicy tuna is actually spicy, and they don't fill it with tempura filler, it's mostly fish and sauce. They're family owned by a lovely couple, and it makes me happy to see them all the time. Please give them a try!“

“Wow!! BEST SUSHI 🍣 by far in the area!!! And the owner is very nice and attentive. We went there for the first time last night. My husband is a sushi addict and he was impressed! I had tuna with apple slices snd rice with chicken. I highly recommend Masa!“

“Steven and his staff are the best! Food is fresh, well presented and delicious! Very attentive service! Thank you for taking my challenge and crushing it. I walked in and said feed me with no holding back. I did not even look at a menu And they knocked it out of the park! Thank you again!!! Until next time!🙏 A+++++++++++++“

“Such a wonderful spot!! The food is always amazing and the hibachi chefs we've encountered are top notch and have such a talent!! Even as an adult I'm still mesmerized by the stuff they pull off while cooking. This is now my son's new favorite place to eat, even if he doesn't want to catch the food they toss lol. We will most definitely be returning!“

“We go because the owners are the nicest people ever! Everything is always great“

“great Arata special sushi Rolls were awesome! All around great sushi meal!!!“

“So happy you're back. We missed you!!! Ordered last night and everything was amazing as usual!!!“

“Delicious! Juicy dumplings, pizza sushi - amazing. Very fresh, great service. 👍🏼“

“This is our FAVORITE place to get Raman! You can’t get any better than this! So delicious, always fresh, the staff is always so friendly and helpful. So many options on the menu, even some great options for Gluten free!! The size of the dishes is so much, we usually end up taking some home, I love it! The kimchi is the best and the crispy chicken bun is so fluffy and the chicken is so crispy! The soup is amazing and it fits perfectly with the toppings. It’s a very quick wait, always less than 10 minutes! Do yourself a favor and try it out!

Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free options“

“Wow! Usually I’m not impressed with the quality of AYCE food. But this place was different. The same owner as The One Sushi 🍣 in Amityville which serves good food. This place charges $35 for all you can eat! What a deal. They charge extra for Crab 🦀 Boil and for Sashimi. But still a great bargain for quality food. Give this place a try before it gets too crowded, prices go up, and the quality goes down. 😀. Card payment is accepted. We will definitely be going back.“

“Best sushi on the south shore.“

“Dozo Dozo is a hidden gem! Their lunch specials are a fantastic deal…generous portions and great quality. I’ve also ordered dinner several times and especially love the Japanese fried chicken and crispy tuna. The salmon bento box is another favorite of mine. Whether dining in or ordering takeout, the service is consistently excellent. Highly recommend!“

“We came in on a Sunday about 8:40, well before the listed 9:30 closing time, and were warned as we came in that they actually close at 9:20. It seemed odd that it would be an issue with plenty of time to order; but apparently unlike most restaurants the closing time is a matter of when they expect you to actually leave.

Still, with seemingly enough time, we ordered, and the appetizer - soft shell crab - came quickly. Unfortunately, though it was not one of the dishes listed as “spicy”, it came with spicy mayo on top. I told the server that I can’t eat spicy food, would not have ordered it if I had known, and asked her to take it back. She gave me an argument, saying I should have told her I can’t eat spicy food. I pointed out that since they list some dishes specifically as spicy, one would assume - as in most other restaurants - that the rest are not. She reluctantly took it back, and informed us the Angel Roll we had ordered, also not labeled spicy, came with spicy mayo on top as well, so we also asked for that to be redone.

This pushed things closer to closing time, and rushed our meal a bit. But I have to say that the food was wonderful: The crab crisp outside, moist inside; the sushi fresh, and the pineapple shrimp fried rice delicious.

So despite the unfortunate attitude we encountered, this restaurant is well worth the trip for the excellent food. Just keep in mind that the closing time is not what’s listed on the website. And that it’s best, whatever the menu says, to ask details before ordering.“

“Amazing place. I was making a delivery when I stumbled upon it and I tried their menu. I love their sushi, I am on a roll of trying it all, but I'm stuck on the spider roll it's so good I can't move past it.... I like to call in advance so I don't have to wait but they're always quick. Super healthy and delicious lunch/dinner options!!“

“Honestly I haven't had sushi this fresh and high quality in a long time. Even the mango was perfectly ripe
(which is hit or miss at most restaurants). The salad greens were fresh and not wilted . I was impressed and will definitely go back.“

“It was a great time. My boyfriend and I enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Sitting with total strangers that were like friends before the night was over!!“

“The atmosphere, in terms of noise, took me a bit of getting used to (the glass of wine probably helped to mellow me out). The service is efficient, patient and friendly. The chef was very personable and the food was delicious! The experience was fun and delectable.“

“Love the family owned restaurant. A true culinary masterpiece. roppongi sushi has such fresh and tasty food. Top Japanese quality. Sushi chef Bendy makes every piece absolutely delicious. The sushi rice is perfectly balanced with the seafood. A true hidden gem.“

“Best sushi place on Long Island. Friendly people everything is made super fresh. Always a good time there’s always giving you a little extra.“

“We have only eaten here a handful of times but each time the food is fresh for both dine in & take our. I love the 20% off when you order on-line. The staff is very friendly and accommodating allowing my daughter to customize her bento box. Tonight we took out & I left my phone on the bar. The staff held it for me in the register until I returned to get it. They definitely won me as their customer!“

“This is a very nicely designed Hibachi restaurant sectioned the Hibachi grills and seating away from main restaurant and there is also a sushi bar and a liquor bar adorende with 3 large television screens for a sports bar feel. The food is fresh , very tasty and arrives pretty quickly. The one draw back that you may not like and isnt a real bad thing is the various staff members that attend to your order for drinks, then the food comes out by another person. The are visits than seem eager to grab your plate to clear the table giving you a sense that there is a rush for the table. We will be back since the food , atmosphere and prices are very good. The portions are on the smaller side but still worth it and you leave full and content.“

“Excellent, fresh and warm atmosphere.“

“Food is always fresh, innovative and delicious. cons service: you feel like you are on a 1/2 hour lunch “rush” no matter day or evening. While enjoying your appetizer and warm sake, the wait staff piles down your entree …. I’ve learned to order my entree after I’ve completely finished my app. going for years, wait staff no personable skills though very polite. Decor cosmopolitan, they spent a lot of money on the chairs but now the faux leather vinyl is sagging, peeling and it’s hard to find a comfortable seat. I overall love and support this hidden diamond in the rough Asian restaurant“

“I love sushi, and the sushi bar is awesome. There specialty rolls are fantastic. I love there sushi/sashimi platter for 2... I usually buy 2 or 3 appetizers and it can absolutely feed 3. Haven't had a meal here that I didn't thoroughly enjoy.“

“Great food&crew. definitely recommended“

“The Absolute Beat hibachi ever!!! Amazing people and the freshest foods ever!!! We love going to Merrick Suki!!!“

“It’s just real good !! They check all the boxes ! Go enjoy a nice dinner or lunch !“

“very nice fresh and delicious food“

“Great Hibachi experience! Staff friendly & service was good. Food was delicious!“

“all you can eattttttt...“

“Always good, all the time. Been going to Komo for some time. I enjoy the sushi. From special rolls to the simple and classic, always fresh and delicious. My wife gets their hot food, also very good. For takeout or dine in, give it a shot, you won't be disappointed.

Parking: Park in the lot behind the restaurant if you can't find a spot on the street.“

“Awesome Fresh Sushi every time!“

“Truly a hidden gem!! This authentic Korean restaurant beats out popular spots in the city. We were greeted warmly upon entry and immediately served tea and a wide assortment of banchan (the tiny side dishes). We started with Pajeon (seafood & green onion pancake) and honestly I’ve had this in countless places and it was the best Pajeon I have ever had- not soggy at all, and the seafood was tender and not annoyingly chewy. Also had the Japchae (excellent), Combo #1 (LA Galbi Short Rib and and soft tofu stew) and a summer special of chilled buckwheat noodles. The portions were generous and the wait staff really were attentive and so helpful. The place has a homey feel like you’re at your favorite auntie’s house. 10/10, no notes, this will be in my heavy rotation.“

“What a find! Nestled next to the Dunkin Donuts and where Rite Aid used to be. Well run establishment. Orders take some time but always come out perfect. Plus the food is cooked in less oily or starch heavy ways. I know there are times where one has to be in the mood for Chinese takeout but you won’t mind eating here a few nights in a row. So tasty and fresh. You don’t feel disgusted or bloated afterwards. It’s satisfying. You get something simple as chicken with vegetables and it’s delicious. The veggies are scrumptious. Don’t feel like chugging a gallon of water later either. Definitely a healthier option for takeout. Plus there’s a sushi bar with several options too. As well as several Japanese dishes cooked with tempura and ever popular miso. Started getting the soup instead of egg roll with my meal and it’s sublime. No worries about having to ask for or pay extra for white meat chicken. Again I can’t get over how fresh the food tastes and just the well fed feeling afterwards. Highly recommend this lovely little place.“

“Walking into Sakana feels like stepping into a secret you can’t wait to share. The sushi is ridiculously fresh. Salmon that melts, rolls that don’t need to be drowned in sauce, just pure flavor in every bite.

The vibe? Spot on. When I walk in, I am welcomed like I am a part of the family. Whether you’re on a date, out with friends, or treating yourself (coming alone is such a vibe btw), it works every time.

And the staff—welcoming without trying too hard. They actually see you, which makes the whole experience flow even smoother.

Bottom line: Sakana doesn’t just serve delicious Asian cuisine, they spoil you and you won't want any other sushi place after. Don’t blame me if you get hooked after one visit but leave my table free lol. 😉“
