“Ginza Don in the Golden Mall Food Court, Flushing, Queens, offers an astonishing dining experience with its donburi rice bowls topped with a variety of proteins like beef, rib eye, steak, and eel, all cooked right in front of you. Watching the food being prepared adds a unique touch to the meal. Their new appetizers, like the mozzarella cheese sausage and crunchy karaage fried chicken, are absolutely delicious. This spot is a must-try, and I'll definitely be back to sample more of their donburi offerings!“

“One of the best brunch spots in Upper Manhattan! The Latin music sets the perfect vibe, the drinks are on point, and the food is absolutely delicious. The service is super friendly, making sure you have a great time. Perfect place to go with friends, enjoy some music, and just vibe. Definitely my new favorite spot. Highly recommend!“

“Sashimi新鮮，龍蝦🦞5食好味，服務非常好！👍🏻“

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

“Just finished my teriyaki steak box. Has to be the best I have ever had. Fresh, crisp, distinct flavors all on one plate. I do not usually write reviews but was so impressed that I had to congratulate them. Well done!“

“Authentic Japanese spot serving quality cuts at a fraction of the price of other places. Particularly enjoyed the salmon and tuna cuts as well as the takoyaki. The atmosphere transports you back to little hole-in-the-walls in Japan and the staff are so sweet and attentive. Will definitely come back!“

“Our dinner at Minato was amazing! I was truly impressed by the ambience and serenity of the garden area, with beautiful lighting and a fountain. The staff was incredibly kind and informative as they fielded all of our questions, and even were open to adjusting our order based on our preferences.

Highly recommend the assorted fish flight and salmon flight, and the teas which came in beautiful pots!!“

“There are many shops and they have parking“

“I had the steak soba. Outstanding. There was jazz music playing, but not too loud. The lights were dim but not too dim. Service was excellent. I will definitely be coming back.

Vegetarian options: I'm nit a vegetarian but I did notice some obvious vegetarian dishes.“

“New kid on the block . Food is fresh but lacks taste . Presentation is excellent but need a little upbeat. We arrived without reservation at 8pm and They told us all seats are booked for 9 . We insisted and got seat and left at 830 way before next group arrived.

Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian dishes

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair access“

“A tasty, cute, local spot that offers omakase as well as your traditional sushi/Japanese menu options with options for drinks too. Our favorite dishes to get are their Chilean Sea Bass with mushroom , truffle risotto and veggies, Masaaki Roll, and Eel Kamameshi Rice. Their sashimi dishes are also quite tasty and the omakase is affordable at just under $100.

The only drawback is that the omakase is in the back where they have bigger tables and separate rooms for a more private setting, which in my opinion takes away from the intimacy that is meant to be the purpose of omakase. But I would still recommend this place to eat at for any occasion, from a date night or dinner with family.“

“Was very good meat and the atmosphere nice .“

“i work in Harlem and this little gem on 124th is fabulous. the food is delicious, the lunch specials are well priced. I have had many lunches and dinners at this place. love love love it“

“It was a wonderful experience , considering it is my first time. We had to wait a few minutes to get our table for 4 but that’s okay! The employees were super nice and went out of their way to pull and extra table for us. I loved the authentic atmosphere. The lighting, decor, and the overall feeling of the restaurant was great! And amazing food. My family loved what we ordered and the matcha cheesecake for dessert was so good! Compliments to the chef! I could definitely see myself coming back here again, whether alone or with family or friends. Well done, Nippon Cha!“

“It's been years coming to parsley, I mean how can you not come here. Let me explain to you that this woman all by herself is managing this place. From Onigiris to Tuna Don, Maze Gohan as well as ramen soups. I mean everything is so perfect. She has a great selection of sake to die for as well as beer. Without mentioning that there is a variety of Wines. Excellent for Dine in and takeout. Overall, a great place for dates, as well as coming alone. You will not be disappointed.

Vegetarian options: Tofu soup, Vegetable Gyozas, vegetables Onigiris.“

“Great service, delish is food! Never disappoints.“

“Excelente!!! Muy buena comida y muy buena atención. Gracias“

“Best price with the best Omakase Sushi👍“

“Omakase sushi is best quality and everything is authentic and excellent. Clean soothing atmosphere and great service“

“I’ve been gatekeeping this place for so long!!! The food is amazing and fresh. I always do a build your own bowl and am able to fully customize a poke bowl to my liking. They also have ramen and different rice bowls. The pricing at this place is so affordable for fresh tuna and salmon. I’m used to paying over $20 for the servings they provide. Their prices range from $11-15. A nice Chinese family owns the restaurant and are always so wonderful to their customers and genuinely remember the regulars. Their restaurant is always impeccably clean. Never garbage around, tables clean, and cute decor. My go to for poke!!!!!“

“Friendly staff. Special price on Mondays for mazesoba dishes. The bao served like tacos are absolutely delicious.“

“fresh and delicious! great customer service!“

“Top notch sushi in a traditional Japanese sushi bar. Not glitzy, but for me it's all about the sushi. Service is fantastic, my green tea cup never got below half full before they were topping it up. Even the green tea and miso soup were really good and full of flavor, well above average.“

“Absolutely delicious, food is amazing, if your able to sit down and eat it's a nice spot to do so. But because the food is good, it gets pretty packed. Great prices for alot of food. And the Fried chicken Dumplings are great. I ate them so fast I didn't take a picture. ? ?“

“The food, service and experience was simply spectacular!“

“Món ăn Nhật Bản ngon nhất tôi từng nếm thử. Tôi rất khuyến khích. Best japanese food I have ever tasted. I highly recommend.“

“Teriyaki One on Fordham is great! The food is fresh and tasty, and the portions are generous. The staff is friendly and quick, even when it’s busy. The place is clean, and the prices are reasonable. Definitely a go-to spot for teriyaki in the Bronx!“

“Our favorite sushi restaurant ever! And if you're not into sushi, there is something for you too - tempura, hibachi, etc. So very delicious and they are so nice there!“

“Great value and solid portion with the bento box. The bubble tea is delicious but make sure you get at least 50% sugar if you like it sweet.

PS pls update the location to Astoria on your website - no one would call this LIC!“

“I got a takeout order of the lunch special chicken teriyaki bento box to try this place for the first time. The chicken was really soft and delicious. Under the chicken there is cabbage and broccoli which were both cooked well. The California roll was good - the rice had good flavor, and the avocado was soft. I feel more confident to try their raw sushi now. I'll update my review whenever I get around to trying that.

This place used to be a Chinese store, and around 2022 a new management took over and turned it into a sushi place. it still looks like a regular Bronx Chinese store inside. Unlike other sushi restaurants, this isn't really the kind of place I'd want to sit and eat. But it's great for takeout.“

“Brought my parents here for dinner. I ordered chirashi (sashimi style fish over rice), my dad ordered a sushi combo, and my mom got the broiled mackerel (saba). Food was delicious and the atmosphere was great — restaurant is nicely decorated and they were playing soft jazz music in the background. Service was friendly and prompt, I also had the opportunity to order our meals in Japanese which was a lot of fun. All in all, Fujinoya is my favorite Japanese restaurant in Westchester and I would highly recommend it!“

“absolutely delicious service was great .🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤“

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

“My partner told me this was the best sushi place ever, so they brought me here. After trying their Sakura roll and honey truffle roll, I can confidently say that I have surpassed the human form and ascended into heaven. This is the BEST sushi I have tried. The setting is very cute and the waitress is very kind. I highly recommend coming and trying the honey truffle roll!“

“Absolutely great service, cozy environment, and good food and drinks. Our server was great with recommendations and so friendly.
Happy hour prices are a bonus too!

We had the chicken Kara-age, takoyaki, steamed spicy clams, and variety of yakitori—chicken thigh with scallion, eggplant, shrimp, pork belly with mochi and enoki, and Kuro sausage with green peppers. Drink was “To Yuzu”“

“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.“

“Oko is by far one of the best sushi restaurants I have ever dined in. It is also my favorite restaurant in Westchester. I eat out almost every night so I am very picky when it comes to restaurants. Sit at the bar and Birk will take care of you. He is super knowledgeable in the menu and on all different types of spirits.“

“This place is great. Ate here multiple times and each time it was good. Ramen especially very good. servers are very friendly. Only thing is the chair on one side is the bench type without back so it can be little bit uncomfortable. But this is one of those places that you can keep come back to and you won't be disappointed with food each time.“

“This a very cool Japanese place on the east side of 125th street in Harlem. They have been here for years. Recently I happened to be passing through and decided to see what was up again. To my surprise they added some very tasty new menu items. I had a delicious spicy grilled salmon roll. A katsu chicken plate. A shrimp tempura roll( who doesn'tlove those), and a spicy grilled chicken roll and a French roll D-damn-licious!!!! The only thing i had i was not a fan of was these chicken wings. I'm sure plain they would've fine. But they put them in some type of sauce that was not very pleasing. Hard pass on the wings charlayyyy....lol. outside of that everything else was Grade A.

Vegetarian options: You can pretty much create your own vegetarian dishes from what they offer.“

“Fogama is my favorite Japanese restaurant in Westchester or in New York. Excellent sushi and plenty of cooked choices too. They al ays have some amazing specials. I have been going to this restaurant since it opened and it gets consistently better and never disappoints.“

“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😊“

“Delicious sushi, reasonable price, immaculate atmosphere and warm friendly staff.“

“Accommodating service but the food- none of it was particularly good.Steak wasn’t the greatest cut or quality. Chicken was flavorful enough so perhaps that’s the star of the show. Tempura wasn’t comparable quality to other places in and around NyC at a similar price point. Ginger salad was decent, fried rice was mediocre.Unfortunately nothing impressed enough to have me want to come back but that’s as a non sushi eater so I leave 4 stars because this place seems highly rated by those who enjoy sushi and I don’t want to significantly impact their rating for something outside of their namesake.“

“Great place“

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

“5/25/24Visited with family today at 4pm. Everything was excellent! Lina made our day a very special one . Her service smile and personality was wonderful. The food was great!!! We must return and recommend her services.2023 I Wanted to just chill out after a hard day at work. It was the best atmosphere calm and relaxing. Everything was just what I needed. Service, Ambience, Food, Music and of course the Company. Thank you for a great night.“
