“Great atmosphere friendly great food fresh very pleasant👌👍“

“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!“

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

“I think this place is great, a real jewel. I had one of the special rolls.. I think they call it yummy yummy. Gorgeous to look at but delicious to eat! Go there you won't be disappointed!“

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

“I almost forgot about this spot but remembered it from when I trained at the martial arts gym down the street. I saw the other reviews raved about the food and the impressive menu for such a little spot so I decided to stop in for lunch. Very delicious indeed and the fish was rather fresh and clean tasting. They offer a decently priced menu full of Japanese favorites including cooked dishes if you are not a sushi fan. I opted for a traditional tuna maki roll and a spicy tuna roll as apart of the lunch special. Both were so tasty I ended up ordering another roll to go and the crispy rice. I enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and traditional decor, very bright and clean looking. Sometimes these restaurants these days can get a little too funky with the decor so they made a proper choice maintaining simplicity. I see they deliver so I will definitely be ordering again when I am not in the area.“

“First time in this town, so I stopped by to try their noodles.
I highly recommend it! The chili oil really takes it to another level — the flavor is absolutely amazing.
Couldn’t wait to leave a review and tell everyone: this is a hidden gem of a restaurant!“

“This is one of our go-to ramen spots in Westchester! I love the tonkatsu and asagao ramen. It’s really fresh and delicious with the perfect amount of spice. The sushi is great as well, we usually get a couple rolls, ramen and of course the spicy edamame. It’s not cheap, but it’s worth it! Excellent little hidden gem.“

“Truly amazing family owned restaurant where they actually care about what they’re doing. The food quality for the price is just unbeatable and they always add a personalized cherry on top of each order. It may seem a bit chaotic at peak times, it’s just because they are not the extremely commercial NYC restaurant that is designed to serve thousands of people simultaneously.“

“Great friendly staff. Panini was awesome“

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

“Hands down the best sushi in westchester no joke. Theres no other place as fresh as this place, their spicy mayo is so different and their sushi is unmatched. Its a hidden gem, i dont even want to write this review so i can gatekeep it and keep it all to myself“

“One of the best Ramen Bars I’ve ever been to. The flavors across the menu are unreal. The Spicy Miso Ramen w/ Pork Belly in particular was one of the best soup broths I’ve ever tasted. The service staff could not have been more friendly and courteous. The quaint setting and atmosphere lend themselves to almost feel like sitting at one big family style dinner table.“

“Great food abs great environment!!“

“Tengda Asian Bistro offers a wonderful selection of delicious lunch and dinner choices! The staff provides excellent and friendly service! Enjoy the best dining experience!“

“Came here to eat in New Year’s Day. Miso soup was so good. We ordered many hand yolks between two people. There was one tool I didn’t like too much I can’t remember the name now but all the rest were fresh and delicious.
They even gave us a cute ice cream dessert“

“I love it!! And the place is clean“

“Sushi was wonderful and the staff was attentive and knew what to recommend.“

“It is clean, balanced portions of food, I had the combo shrimp & filet mignon steak, very good at reasonable $, I think it's ,the best combo! including miso soup & choice of ice cream,I had Pistachios with marischino cherries. overall great 👍 thumbs up!“

“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 family experience! The Chef/Samurai did a great hob chopping and simmering our noodles/rice/steak/chicken/scallops and shrimp.
Everyone loved their meals and the pace was nice and even between soup, salad and main courses!
Domo Arigato, Sensei!“

“I've been going here for years & the food is great & fairly priced. They have a great maki lunch meal with soup/salad & 3 rollls for a decent price. Their bento box is great! You gey to choose 2 meats plus a roll, shumai, rice & tempura veggies and soup & salad. Very good. Even better they a stamp card & you get stamps for every $25 you spend. Once card had has 10 stamps you get a $25 gift card to apply to your next visit. Honestly, lovely staff & calm environment. So glad its a neighborhood staple.“

“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!“

“The service has always been top notch. Attentative and informative staff has been the hallmark of this restaurant for all the years I've been eating here.

The food has always been excellent. Beautiful too the eye, and yummy to the taste buds. Specials are made with add much care as the regular menu items.
Special occasions are honored. And school class trips to Osaka leave the kids thrilled to go back with their families.
John, the owner, and his staff are a joy to be around. Training is clearly taken seriously. And the staff genuinely take pride in giving guests a really nice meal and experience.“

“First time trying Buddha takeout the crispy orange chicken was delicious had the perfect balance of tanginess and sweetness this will be my To go spot for takeout from now on! Edamame is just edamame but the moment I opened the lid for the crispy orange chicken the smell was so aromatic !“

“One of the only places around that is Asian food with a nice atmosphere. The dumplings were especially delicious, and the salad and miso soup were especially good. Then the bento box is always fun. The only negative was that the teriyaki chicken could have a little more char on it.“

“Got off the train and grabbed lunch. Highly recommend Kiku Sushi. Excellent service, food and atmosphere. Reasonably pricing as well.“

“Awesome food and service. Nice atmosphere. nice bar upon entry“

“The kids loved it and they even ate“

“Great food, awesome lunch specials, drinks are yummy and the service is always so nice and friendly. I go there a lot with my nephew and they always take care of us and so friendly with him and kind ☺️“

“Good lunch selections just that their miso soup is so salty. Otherwise everything else is very good. I had salmon teriyaki with California rolls. It came with side salad , miso soup and steamed veggies. Salmon size serving is big for lunch . Very happy with the order. Cheap for $14.“

“Food was great, nice decor and soothing atmosphere. Very affordable. Had a great time with family.“

“I honestly had such a great experience at Hirame Sushi. From the second we walked in, everyone was welcoming and upbeat. You can tell the team really cares about the place.
The food was amazing — super fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The sushi tasted incredibly fresh, and everything came out quickly without feeling rushed. Every roll we tried was delicious.“

“I love this place. I usually go by myself, sit at the bar and have my me time.
Service is always excellent, food is always very fresh and quick.
I recommend the cocktail Haiku Ginger Citrus. Angel, the bartender, makes it like a pro.
I’ve been going to Haiku for a few years now and they are always amazing…
I really recommend this place.“

“Very friendly very good food“

“One of the best hot and sour soups and fried crunchy soup noodles I’ve had.

Although a tad bit pricey and could do better with some freebies if you spend a lot besides an Eggroll or soda.

Take out entree portions could be a bit bigger for price as well. I'm sure bigger if you eat in. Flavor of food is great. Fresh and authentic.

Some people could be cold but open up once you break the ice.

Love the goodie bag tea bags and fortune cookies they give.“
