Japonica is a classic NYC restaurant with a nostalgic feel, known for its delicious house salad dressing. Despite changes since relocating, the food still tastes great, especially the sushi and miso soup. The generous portions have shrunk, but prices have increased. The staff remains friendly and welcoming, creating a special atmosphere for both adults and kids. The restaurant holds sentimental value for many, with unique touches like shrimp-shaped lollipops for kids. While some may prefer trendier spots, Japonica's traditional charm and top-notch sashimi keep customers coming back, making it a must-visit in the NYU area.
