Popped into Aji Sushi for a quick sushi dinner after reading the online reviews. This is the perfect neighborhood place for a delicious sushi/Japanese dinner. The staff was prompt and attentive. We got a 300 ML bottle of premium sake, a couple of pieces of sushi, two specialty rolls, and two appetizers and all for under $100. The food was excellent, very fresh. The rolls were delicious and the presentation was pleasing. Excellent quality for an excellent price. Will definitely look forward to coming back here soon.

This place should be a zero. Never have I ever experienced such terrible customer service in my life. The people who work here are beyond rude and inconsiderate and as someone who never writes reviews I was just so taken aback by how I was treated I thought I should warn others before spending their hard earned money at this place.

What a gem! This place is hit the nail on the head - generous portions, delicious, and reasonably priced. Staff is amazing too. Very service oriented.

I've been poking around this city in search of a go-to sushi place, with middling success. Back in Seattle my place is Azuma Sushi, has never let me down, but New York has been tricky. Generally the places I can somewhat afford haven't knocked my socks off, and the places with the best quality fish have been of the break-the-bank variety. It can get bleak. One begins to lose hope. But as luck would have it, I was deep in the internet 'sushi near me' trenches of the interweb and up popped this little spot, which I saw was sporting something called a 'Sushi Sashimi Dinner'. 9 pieces of sashimi, 5 nigiri AND a roll for 26 bucks, which seems not cheap, but when you consider that's about the cost of an egg right now you figure it's a pretty decent thing to put your money toward.

I ordered that, subbed the roll for an eel cucumber one because I know what I'm about and I love unagi, also got miso and a salad because Japanese restaurants know how to make a hell of a ginger carrot dressing. I don't like squid or octopus, whatever morality scale I'm on excludes them from my pescatarian diet. They're too intelligent and it makes me feel bad. Sorry fish. But anyway the woman who took my order was very nice about not including them in the sashimi. My order was ready crazy fast- I got it to go because eating out alone makes me feel weird but the restaurant was very pleasant, nice lighting, soft but not dark, good color, the people working were very cheery. And SKILLED. Because this fish. This fish people. Just melt in the mouth, clean, buttery, I could feel my brain getting smarter and my bones getting stronger and my hair growing and my superpowers setting in and all the problems in the world healing magically as I ate this fish. The salmon! Again it was just the best, most fresh, buttery, highest quality. Everything was tied for or was the best sashimi of that type of fish that I've had. Every one. Miso was great, of course, salad was great, of course, the bill was reasonableness defined and after the meal felt like the steal of the century. It took me two years but I found it people, the sushi spot hath been secured. I'm oddly relieved! And very delighted. Weight off the shoulders. To conclude. This place is fabulous! And I hereby pledge myself a loyal customer

Well priced, huge selection of Asian cuisine. The pineapple fried rice was epic.

I ordered a “simple” and yet delicious sashimi and was amazed by polite service of the staff. I can feel that it’s a great place and will definitely return
