“I just tried the Thai tea and it was delicious !!! 😋“

“Yummy food and very clean“

“This spot is a neighborhood GEM. I hope the people living here know this. Best Sushi and sashimi for miles around. Solid everytime. The fish is kept well and served well. The whole family works here and they are so nice and friendly. The dad who is the sushi chef has one of the fastest hands around. He just cranks the orders out like butter. The store has about 6 tables but they are never packed. But while I dine in the takeout orders are endless. This man can handle it all and still can chat with you.I wish I lived nearby.... Lucky you, Mineola...“

“Has become my favorite local place to eat. Whether with family friends or by myself. They are so friendly and accommodating. A must try!“

“Just ate here for the first time last night - a friend highly recommended it. The food was amazing - we had two poke bowls, chicken teriyaki, vegetable fried rice, shumai, Chicken negimaki - everything delicious. Can’t wait to go back!“

“I chose the sushi deluxe, and I guess it’s similar to an omakase style. They told me it would be 9 pieces with one roll, and honestly, all the selections were great. The fish was very fresh and high quality. I was also really impressed by their service.

My friend and I were deep in conversation and lost track of time, but they never rushed us to leave. I will definitely be coming back and will make a reservation next time (we were lucky to get seats with no wait just by walking in)!“

“If you’re looking for the best Sushi I would definitely recommend Mr J Sushi ! The owners are amazing super friendly and always try’s to make me a special order! My family and I been getting sushi from here for years I won’t stop! Definitely recommend:)“

“I had an amazing experience here! The food was incredible honestly, even better than what I’ve had in the city. I’ve been to many places that serve similar dishes, but this restaurant completely exceeded my expectations. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and arrived surprisingly quickly.

The service was just as outstanding as the food. Our server was so kind and welcoming. We had a wonderful conversation with her as she shared stories about her life and explained each dish to us. She frequently stopped by our table to make sure we had everything we needed, which made us feel genuinely cared for.

One of the most heartwarming parts of our visit was meeting their daughter, who was selling handmade bracelets to save money for college. It was such a wholesome touch and made the experience even more memorable.

The restaurant itself was beautifully designed, with a cozy and comfortable atmosphere that made us want to stay longer. My group and I left truly impressed, and we couldn’t stop talking about how great everything was.

I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for amazing food, outstanding service, and a warm, welcoming environment. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Best hibachi ever! The food quality is amazing and the service is why we stay. Way cheaper than other spots I’ve been to and the wine pours are great. Their yum yum sauce is delicious, sushi rolls are fat, I love coming here. The chefs are also hilarious, my kids love it here“

“Upscale Japanese cuisine, very friendly staff. For sure one of the best Japanese restaurant in Long Island. I enjoyed!“

“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.“

“Great takeout option that both adults and children will enjoy. My kids love the chicken teriyaki over noodles or white rice, although I find that the noodles can be a bit dry and in need of more sauce at times. We’ve tried the chicken combination with other proteins as well and they were also delicious. Can’t beat the price either! Definitely getting a bang for your buck. They also sell sushi, but we have not been brave enough to try them.“

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

“Excellent food and service.“

“We moved from Port Washington to MA this May and have been unable to find a spot that offers everything that Aki does, not to mention at the same quality! They just execute everything so well. It was our go to for sushi, we loved the apps (the crispy rice and jalapeño yellowtail are fire), and loved also having options for classic Chinese food. We loved that it offered a little bit of everything. We only ever ordered takeout but the service was always top notch too. We love and miss you Aki!“

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

“I ordered take out party platters over the phone for the workplace this past Thursday and my co-workers and I couldn't have been more pleased. The initial ordering process was smooth. Pickup was on time at 12pm even though they only open at 1130am. And the sushi, as always, was fresh and delicious. Each party platter could easily feed 4-5 people and are reasonably priced. Everyone wants to order from here again in the future (even with work being in Westbury).“

“Compared to other restaurants, it's twice as expensive but you get half the portion size—meaning you only get a quarter of the food for the same amount of money. The value for money is terrible. If they kept the prices the same but doubled the portions, it would be absolutely perfect.“

“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+++++++++++++“

“This place has been around for a very long time, the owner is and always has been so hospitable. The food always fresh and tasty. Streamed shrimp shumai is a mustttt! I had the maki eel and dragon roll and it was great. Jazz was playing on the stereo which made the perfect ambiance for me. I will always come back.“

“Perfect gem in a little strip mall in Hicksville! One of a kind. Super fresh sushi and delicious bubble tea! Will be back and very soon!!“

“This is by far my favorite restaurant on Long Island. We eat here at least once a week. The food is consistently fresh. Staff is wonderful and friendly. You won’t be disappointed!“

“The freshest sushi you'll find.“

“Had a fantastic birthday/mother’s day celebration tonight! So happy to have a great restaurant to celebrate important events with the family! Such a huge selection all included in their base price! So so delicious and so reasonable! Can’t wait to come back again soon! Well done all!“

“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.“

“Excellent food, service was outstanding and great atmosphere. Have not been here for awhile will definitely being going back regularly.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Best sushi I’ve had! They have Karaoke nights on Thursdays and it’s a lot of fun!!!“

“Great vibe and food! Excellent service“

“We had the rainbow roll, maki combo w/tuna maki, salmon maki, and crab maki and an eel maki combo and everything was absolutely fresh and delicious. Great portions, excellent presentation, and the service was on time, courteous, and friendly. Highly recommend Samurai Sushi of Williston Park.“

“Love the Matcha Latte, and all the different appetizers. Very friendly owner and staff!!! 👍🤗“

“Authentic Japanese cuisine Family owed Clean Excellent service and friendly“

“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“

“Had no idea what we were missing. It's so important to patronize local businesses. We received a welcoming greeting when we entered. Our server was nice. She checked in periodically and ensured our table had everything we needed.

Comfortable setting. Decor fitting and on theme.

We ordered several sushi rolls. Hard to choose a favorite. We also had the Gyoza and the fried chicken wings. Everything was freshly made and delicious.

I'm sure we'll return as my son seemed to really enjoy the food.“

“Go. If you Love Sushi. Yahao gets it more than right! Food is exceptional. Sushi ordered so wonderfully dang fresh , clean and robust. We ordered even more. I had gotten an order of soba noodles with beef. Excellent flavor! Our servers were patient , polite and helpful. We had a very enjoyable night. Kanpai 🍶 😊🍱🍣“

“Taste good“

“Great environment and food selections 👍“

“Great People and Great Food!!“

“Food is fresh and presented beautifully. A bit on the expensive side but the quality of the fish is superb. I recommend salmon avocado salad and salmon carpaccio, especially the latter.“

“I just wanted to get something quick, I found out they had cards they can stamp to eventually get a free meal. I’ve been here about 4 other times and no other cashier has ever mentioned that to me until Alexa did tonight. She ended up giving me two for filled up cards which she didn’t have to. Her customer service was fantastic. And would definitely keep coming again. Everyone is very nice and friendly in there. Would recommend.“

“We went to Jani for its Japanese cuisine and were not disappointed. Our waitress was friendly, attentive and made us feel welcome. The sushi was fantastic.“
