“Fujinoya has been my family’s top favorite Japanese spot in all of Westchester - aside from Sazan in Ardsley - boasting a delicious authentic menu, kind Japanese staff, and a cozy vibe that’s small yet inviting. The seasonal offerings are always a standout, including the sukiyaki hot pot that’s my all-time fave! 😋 highly recommended“

“I absolutely Love This Place. I come here every chance i get, i love the food and the chefs provide cool entertainment 💪🏻“

“I am a famously fussy eater and vegetarian, so most of the time if my loved ones are getting sushi I either don’t eat at the restaurant or get a small side dish that I can have. At Hajime they had so many options that I could choose from I was very surprised.
I really wanted the fried noodles but it came with chicken and vegetables, but our very friendly waiter said without the chicken was really no problem. I also let him know that I can’t have any spice and he reassured me when I ordered and again when it arrived that there was no spice and he even waited for me to take a mouthful of a food to ensure it was okay for me. I’ve never felt so cared about in a restaurant before and I was so grateful to him for caring about a seemingly fussy girl.

We genuinely had the best time here for my fiancés birthday, and after our entrees they brought us a huge plate of different sorbets with a candle in. We had no idea they were doing this and it was such a thoughtful touch.
I very much got the vibe of a family business that has been around a while, quietly serving the most delicious food. Truly a hidden gem! We have agreed that we will go out of our way to travel the half an hour it takes to get here just for this place. The atmosphere and hospitality is unmatched. Thank you so much!“

“I haven't been to Oko in a couple of years but my daughter wanted to try it and I was so pleased we gave it another try. The ambience and music was a 10! As my daughter said it gives off a NYC vibe inside. The hand rolls were phenomenal. The pieces were all delicious. It is expensive but inventive and delivers. I will be back. I love the front window table and thankfully have always seemed to get it.“

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

“First time trying after a friend’s recommendation. We ordered five plates. Wow. Loved every bite. Their food is fresh and delicious. The vegetable gyoza was the best I’ve had. Warm reception at the front counter, even for a take out order. Tucked in the middle of one of the quaintest blocks in New York. Can’t wait to go back.“

Also saw someone left a review about there not being a bathroom which made me laugh, there is a bathroom and Ive washed my hands in it every time Ive visited since I was a little girl - they must have the wrong place.“

“I just finished a fabulous Hawaiian poke bowl that I would recommend to anyone. A perfect blend of crunchy spicy and succulent. My choice is to have it over greens, but I think it would be just as good over brown rice. The staff is incredibly friendly, patient with new customers, and so helpful. Good to eat in, eat outside, or takeout!“

“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😊“

They cook the best katsu/curry sauce. They cook daily and it is a rich sauce with veggies and meat. Family cooking style. Simple and delicious! Thank you !“

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

“Tokyo Japanese restaurant not the largest place but the food far outdose any other local Japanese restaurant, , friendly service . Great prices. Not much more you can ask for.“

“Best Sushi in Yonkers. All the rolls are absolutely fresh and decadent. The quesadillas are excellent as well. A fun mix of Sushi & Mexican. A must go to if ever in Yonkers. I even dare say it is the best sushi in the Bronx. They are located less than 1/3 of a mile from the Bronx border and they deliver to the surrounding neighborhood in the Bronx. The guy who took our order is very amicable. The sushi chef prepares the rolls right in front of you. It was a great experience.“

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

“I've just come for the lunch special, but it's definitely worth the trip for that. Three good-sized maki sushi rolls of your choice and soup or salad for just $15. I haven't tried anything else but the other customers seemed happy. The sweet potato sushi is totally yummy.“

“We went there for a late dinner. The food was all right. We are and didn't pay attention to time. We ended a few minutes after 9. The minute we stepped out, the staff turned out the light and went outside too. They had been waiting for us to leave patiently and silently. Really appreciated it.“

“I had such a wonderful experience at this sushi restaurant. The atmosphere is calm and tranquil, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. Located right on Main Street in Franklin and Nyack, it’s convenient and welcoming from the moment you walk in.
The sushi itself is outstanding — incredibly fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. The rolls are not only delicious but also creative, with unique combinations that really stand out. Every bite tasted like it was crafted with care and attention to detail.
If you’re looking for a spot with a peaceful vibe and absolutely top-notch sushi, this is the place to go. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

They even gave us a cute ice cream dessert“

“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...“

Our client absolutely loved it, the food was delicious, the chef was professional, engaging, and brought so much fun to the evening. It truly elevated the event and created a memorable experience for everyone!

We will definitely be using them again for future events. Highly recommend if you are looking to add something unique and fun to your next gathering!
