50 Best Sushi Bars near Fresh Meadows

“I was in the area and wanted a quick bite. Looked for kosher sushi and found them. Their torpedo roll was one of the best sushi rolls i ever had - it was simply delicious. I had another roll as well, it was good, but the torpedo roll is a winner.“

“Yo, if you're craving some bomb sushi and top-notch service, this is the spot. The bathroom's spotless, and the food is packed with flavor and won't break the bank. We only get specific dishes from here, like the kani salad and the shrimp. I highly recommend this place to everyone!“

“I recently had Fortune Chinese Food cater a party, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience! From start to finish, they were an absolute pleasure to work with — professional, reliable, and incredibly accommodating.

A special shoutout to Gaby, who made the entire process seamless. She was so helpful with planning the menu, answering all my questions, and making sure everything was just right for the event. Her communication was on point, and she genuinely cared about making our party a success.

The food was great! Everything was delivered right on time and beautifully packaged, ready to serve. Huge thanks to Gaby and the team — I’ll definitely be using them again!“

“Fantastic speakeasy sushi joint. Very small, no more than an handful of people may join the omasake style bar where 3 talented (and cool) chefs serve you the best crafted sushi you can get. Definitely going back soon.“

“Delicious fresh food and amazing drinks! Celebrated my friend’s bday there and we had a 12 course menu! Great atmosphere and the DJ was a great touch! Had a great time at Kaizen.“

“Love the pad thai so much. Really authentic Thai kitchen. Thank you so much guys. I really enjoyed this!“

“Went inside on a whim and so glad we did. The handrolls were incredible. The fish was great quality and creativity was next level. Our favorites were the xo scallop (must get), tuna poke, salmon serrano, aka ebi, toro scallion, and spicy lobster. Not as big of a fan of cooked/fried fish in sushi, but tried the coconut shrimp and spicy crab dynamite due to the many recommendations, and thought they were just okay. Also didn’t think the caviar starter was anything special.“

“I had a really wonderful time here - and enjoyed the excellent food! I found the service to be extremely attentive, and all the staff very responsive to needs and the fact that I am pescatarian and requested one modification to the set omakase. I got the 15 course omakase with the sake pairing and all of the pieces were delightful! The fish was firm and fresh, and tasted great, and I loved the light hand the chef used for the sauces. I will definitely come back.“

“I’m in from Miami for a week. My first night in I came in because of its reviews and distance from my hotel! All o can say is
EVERYTHING they cook and serve is 10/10✨✨. Fresh sushi and amazing flavor to all their foods.. today’s my 2ns time here. And will make it a must whenever back in NY. Amazing food guys!“

“The best sushi I ever had.Friendly chef and attentive staff.“

“I highly recommend! The design and food is awesome.“

“We celebrated a couple of Birthdays and Mother's Day here. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We came for brunch and pretty much had the place for ourselves. I had the Goda Harmony which consists of the Rock Shrimp, Miso Cod and Medley of vegetables. It was wonderful! 🤗 💕 Many of my party got the Chirashi, and they enjoyed their meal. Others chose the rolls. One ordered the Nyeumen - thin udon soup Bowl with shrimp Tempura. All very yummy!“

“I absolutely love this place! The food is fenomenal! Every time I come I order a different dish and they never disappoint. The owner is very friendly, the atmosphere is nice to have a date or come eat with friends and family. I'm bringing all my friends here 100% recommend.“

“This is some of the best sushi I have ever had. Super fresh ingredients and the sushi so good I didn’t require dipping sauce. I highly recommend.“

“A laid-back omakase spot in Long Island City offering incredible value. For $118, you get 18 courses with generous portions and sushi fishes were fresh and tender. On top of that, they served us complimentary sake, and the service was warm and attentive (they gave us a handwritten bday card too!). Overall, it’s a true bang-for-your-buck experience and a highly recommended choice for a night out in LIC!!“

“Tuna cutting ceremony was a thrill in all respects… great staff here !“

“Good food and cheaper. Very nice staff“

“Its our first time to order from this restaurant and we will definitely order again, the sushi order was sooooo goood Oh my god!, Loved crispy rice ball appetizers, the top notch signature 😋 its a favorite and dragon roll perfect, everything was fresh and tasty, highly recommended ( delivery order)“

“This place has the potential of being staple in the harlem neighborhood. It more of Americanized Japanese food that they serve. Which is not a bad thing, this is good place if you want something different but still stay in the familiarity of dishes. Their prices are very fairand give good portion sizes. I will recommend for you to come try it if you never been. It's definitely a place to go for lunch or picking up something quick.“

“My wife and I went to Sushi Jin last night for the first time. It was wonderful on all fronts - the space, the vibe, the freshness, the omakase selections, the assembly, the presentation, and of course, the taste (oishii!). Really good sake, too. Chef Tachikawa took great care of us- he was friendly, gracious, and way capable. Our server (everything else but the sushi), Jean, was also fantastic. We walked out of there satisfied & very happy and thought it was the perfect dinner to celebrate our anniversary. We look forward to our next visit.“

“I dare you to find me a better sushi place than Otoro. I highly recommend the place. The quality of the food, service and ambiance is unmatched!

I personally recommend the edamame, the Yellowtail roll, and the King Salmon nigiri!

I'll be back here for more. I am here a few times a month“

“**5-Star Chinese BBQ Experience!**

The lamb skewers here are incredible—juicy, smoky, and packed with cumin-chili flavor! I also loved the crispy grilled squid and garlic eggplant, which paired perfectly with an ice-cold beer. The service was fast and friendly, and the lively atmosphere made it a perfect spot for a fun group dinner. **Definitely coming back!**“

“Its such a clean place,with delicious flavors and awesome staff�����. I always recommend it too my friends.“

“This is a review specifically about the Ikura don. I love ikura so was super happy to see that they have ikura don on the menu! I also got the chirashi don, which was great. But as for the ikura... why is it so sweet? The ikura is marinated in a very SWEET sauce.... that I could hardly taste the special taste of the ikura itself. I just wanted to let the management know that that marinade sauce for the ikura is WAY too sweet!! Please highlight the taste of the ikura itself. 🙏🙏🙏“

“Calamari is excellent! They have many sushi variations!! All made professionally! The hot saki is always satisfying!!“

“Staff are very nice! Fish portions feel a little small but presentation was fantastic. The shrimp + uni, scallop, miso fish (don't remember what it was called), and oyster to start was the best. Very nice of them to give us a mochi dessert on the house at the end! Only other con was that the food court got a little loud at the end.“

“Omg!! this was one of the best japonese restaurants I’ve ever been to, starting by their huge selection on their menu, they got tons of sushi options, sashimi, ramen and even bento box! I tried all of it and it was delicious! the service was really on point they were so kind even the way they packed the food to go was so neat! Really loved this place stop by lunch time they got incredible deals!“

“great omakase good and fresh fish....not bad for Queens location“

“Food on buffet was cold that was suppose to be hot and old shrimp had been on the buffet so long it was dry smh a waste of money I would never go back there“

“Best and most creative sushi ever. Have never tried an item on the menu that I didn’t like. ❤️“

“Good atmosphere! Great service. Delicious food.“

“I’ve loved this place for years, but I just catered from them for the first time, and everything was perfect. The sushi was delicious, they kept the sushi with gluten in a separate container, they have party platters and party trays, and they sold me the perfect amount of food without being pressured to buy too much. The price was reasonable- actually incredible considering how delicious everything was, and everything came on time. I will definitely cater from them again.“

“I threw a sweet 16 party for my daughter this weekend at this Restaurant and it was Amazing from the event planner Natasha for Agenda to the servers everyone was so very helpful Especially Chef Wilmer he was amazing through the whole process to me planning my event there to the day it was time to put everything together he was very helpful and his food was absolutely Amazing!! I wish I took pictures but it was gone to fast everyone was so patient and they were very accommodating Thank you Agenda!! For your Amazing service! And your tasty Amazing Food!!!“

“This place is super safe especially with Outdoor dining and super super better than Mamasushi!“

“I'll try to keep this to the point —

I gave Food/Service/Atmosphere 5 🌟 because they were on par for me. For a local spot, this really took me by surprise.

What I ordered:

Miso Soup:
Standard Miso Soup, nothing groundbreaking, but very tasty. Would have loved a tad more tofu & scallion, but that's just me.

Salmon Avocado Hand roll:
Not the hand roll I expected meaning it wasn't in the cone shape I'm familiar with, but it came presented like a taco with the seaweed as the shell. Salmon cuts were huge, and with great colour, avocado was bright & ripe, coupled with the perfect amount of rice. Everything tasted clean, and fresh.

Yellowtail Jalapeno Nigiri:
I messed up with this, originally I wanted a sushi roll, but my brain flubbed. Great mistake though, because the yellowtail was delicious, practically melted in my mouth, topped with a delicate cut of jalapeno on top.

Love Milk Tea:
Honestly, just a really delicious milk tea topped with osmanthus flower. It was light, refreshing, and not too sweet thankfully.

Wagyu Tataki:
Tataki is meant to be briefly seared on the outside, but the center remains raw. Was this seared to the degree I wanted? No. But, was it delicious? Yes. And the meat was incredibly tender, flavour of the sauces really complimented everything on the plate.

I finished off with a matcha cheesecake to go, I'm sure it'll be good.

With tip, I spent $67

Again, for a local spot in Richmond Hill/Kew Gardens, I was thoroughly impressed and satisfied. Personally, with slight adjustments, these folks would do great in midtown. I spent a little under what I would spend at a restaurant in the city, and got an incredibly satisfying meal, and left full.“

“Absolutely wonderful spicy tuna poke bowl. I highly recommend this place. We got takeout and it was ready fast. Great price. Amazing poke bowl. This is definitely a place we will frequent!!!!!“

“Good food everything is well made“

“Thank you guys SO MUCH for satisfying my cravings, this roll I asked for isn’t on the menu, but they went out their way to make it for me🥺 Hit home and brought me good memories, I can’t thank you enough! I will definitely be ordering more often, I work a block away😁 & yes, those are flaming hot Cheetos lol“

“(4.7⭐️) ordered takeout from this local little spot. I had their shrimp dragon roll which was fresh and yummy. Their ingredients def taste fresh. I tried their pork gyoza which per my taste I would’ve liked them a bit more grill. The miso soup was pretty standard. Even though they seemed a tad bit frustrated because of me asking questions I think it just took us a second to mutual understand each other. I’d def go back and try other options ! The spot has 3-4 tables at most in case you’re thinking of sitting down.“

“Had a great experience at this sushi spot! The food was fresh and delicious, but what really stood out was the amazing service. Our server was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. It’s always nice when someone goes the extra mile to make your meal enjoyable. Definitely coming back!“

“As a Japanese person, I have high standards about sushi. Let me tell you, Uotora is a hidden gem and the best sushi restaurant in NYC- you will get the same quality sushi as those $$$ sushi spots in Manhattan. I came here for my birthday and had the omakase. Can't wait to come again!“

“Newly opened Chinese Restaurant along 3rd Ave. Expect Manhattan prices; though serving is plentiful. Get the Lunch Special for the most banging for your buck, Lunch specials available even on weekends. Overall, if you want better food than your hole in the wall Chinese restaurant, this is a nice treat.“

“This really is the best sushi restaurant in our neighborhood. The owners have always been so welcoming and the chef makes the best sushi, on par with way more expensive restaurants that we’ve been to, LI to Manhattan. No joke. Def worth the $$. I honestly wouldn’t believe anyone on here who would give a 1 star review. Hardworking family-owned business with wonderful service and great food! Thank you Ganda always!!!“

“Love this place. I've tried the chicken beef and shrimp and they're all fresh and good tasting. Sauce isn't overly sweet like a lot of teriyaki. I've had some of the sushi too and it's fresh and cheap. Very nice employees, family run place and they offer a super cheap student meal to the kids which is admirable because they're better off getting some fresh protein, rice, and veggies than other cheap fast food in the area“

“Sushi Time! is always my hubby's and my go-to-sushi-craving-appeasing -eatery when we travel to NY.

Since they initially opened almost two decades ago, we've habitually eaten at the restaurant -- countless times when we lived in NY and even after we moved to NW CT in 2010. Now living in VA these past three years, our trips to NY are not as frequent, BUUUUT we make certain to eat at Sushi Time! when we are there -- whether just landed at one of NYC airports, passing through or visiting for several days. Yes, thats how much we enjoy eating at Sushi Time!

Jenna and her staff are always welcoming and amazingly friendly and attentive from the moment you walk into the restaurant, regardless if they just opened the doors to the very last minute they close at night.

Their sushi quality and specialty rolls combinations and flavours are impeccable. Never disappointing.

I highly recommend Sushi Time! Go and be delighted, your taste buds will thank you.“

“The sushi was solid - the portions were very small though. Was expecting more for how much it was. I thought the prices were really good but it definitely isn’t a great deal, they are “lower” because the portions are quite small. Good sushi but portion should be larger or prices should be lower.“

“I found this place by searching for Sushi Party Trays on Google, and I'm so glad I found it! The party trays are so delicious and so affordable, that you can get a couple for the price of just a few special rolls from any other place! It's a very small place, but it has very big flavor and the best price around!!!!“

“one of the best Japanese cuisine you can experience. They have the teriyaki special platters for a great price which comes with everything you can taste about this place. The food is yummy and the staff/atmosphere is great. keep up the good work guys :)“

“We have been ordering here for years but the price keeps going up on their platters - we usually get the XL sushi sashimi roll platter. It’s $140 at time of this review. Some of the rolls have a Korean flair with Korean pickled radish in them. A lot of spicy mayo is drizzled over the smaller rolls so it’s hard to tell what type of fish/roll you’re eating so keep that in mind if you have guests. Easy to order because you can’t choose.“

“New favorite local sushi take-out spot. Very friendly welcome when I walked in, told them my daughter really wants salmon and they were happy to custom one of the plates to include only salmon.

The salmon itself was excellent. Fresh and smooth texture, dare I say best I’ve had outside of Japan (was there in July).

Will be going back again.“
