KATSUNO Reviews
Another amazing dinner from Katsuno. Our favorite authentic Japanese restaurant in NYC came through for us once again, this time with take-out. Tonight we had the Tuna Avocado Salad, Nigiri Sushi, Pork Hirekatsu, and Tempura Udon. All served with a refreshing can of Funaguchi Kikusui Sake. Everything was fresh and delicious as always and served curbside in a safe no contact manner. Thank you Katsuno!
Sushi and blackened cod were exceptional. Excellent sake selection. Cozy and intimate setting. Reservations are required
Katsuno is Forest Hills' best kept secret. They only open a few days a week for a couple hours, and reservations must be made in advance. If you walk by too fast, you just might miss the store front. The food is fresh and authentically made by an old Japanese couple. This meal will cost you, but every bite is worth it. I loved the hamachi kama. Katsuno is my favorite special occasion restaurant when I feel like splurging on my birthday.

The sashimi is fresh and expertly prepared, with a noticeable quality that rivals city restaurants. The snow crab avocado roll is appreciated for its sweetness and balanced rice.
