“Wow 🤩 the food is delicious! Eat as much as I want for 35$ wow! Love the beef skewers! This is my first time in all I can eat and I love it!

It will be hard to finish.“

“I came here a friend and had 2 rolls (salmon and tuna), one sea urchin, and one wagyu single piece. All the food was incredible. Some of the best sushi I've had in my life. My friend had 2 vegetarian rolls, which both were delicious. I would highly recommend this place to anyone that enjoys higher quality sushi, especially at lunch since they have some discounted rolls.“

“Great food very good service“

“Shota is as close to dining in Tokyo as you may find in New York. An absolute dream experience with every detail perfectly tailored to your needs. We recently attended the 3 year anniversary of this Michelin star restaurant and could not have enjoyed a meal more. While it is definitely a bank breaker for most, this is one of New York’s most delicious restaurants accompanied by some of the finest service you’ll find in the city. If budget allows, always go with the sake pairing. It’s a game changer. Love the team here so very much. They treat you like family every visit.“

“Best Omakase I’ve ever had 😊“

“WOW! My friend and I went today and had such a great experience! The staff were so friendly and kind, constantly checking in and chatting with us. The sushi was so delicious with new flavor combinations and the freshest ingredients. I have been to a few other Omakase restaurants in the city and this is definitely going up there on my list. I will DEFINITELY be back.“

“Wowoww 🥹🎀💗 the food was SO delicious I genuinely almost cried 😭✨ The salmon & tuna avocado were absolute perfection, and the gyozaaaaa 🥟💞 literally obsessed. And the butterfly pea yuzu lemonade?? So pretty and refreshing 🦋🍋💙 Everything was perfect 🩵🩵🩵 already dreaming about ordering from tora 🎀✨“

“A lot of good things about this place such as decor and our chef. Loved how he actually cares about each piece he makes and has such a pleasant mannerism (tho the overall vibe of the service was awkward and slightly cold in the beginning). We liked a lot of the pieces: quite fresh and diverse altho some of them taste Americanized and heavier (the truffle and the heavier sauce applied, for example). The service improved along the way tho. And the restroom can def be a bit more aligned with the decor outside.“

“Fantastic speakeasy sushi joint. Very small, no more than an handful of people may join the omasake style bar where 3 talented (and cool) chefs serve you the best crafted sushi you can get. Definitely going back soon.“

“Attended an Omakase event, Staff Amazing, Food absolutely delicious 😋, The experience going and enjoying time with your friends, priceless. They made us feel like we were part of the Koma Sushi 🍣 family. THANK YOU“

“깔끔하고 깊은 맛이 좋았습니다.“

“Food was delicious. Would go back again“

“Tried the $69 15-course omakase with unlimited drinks and honestly, the deal is too good to pass up! 🍣🍶 The fish and seafood were fresh, everything was delicious, and the portions were surprisingly generous. The staff was also really friendly and welcoming. Such a fun spot for a good-value omakase experience 🧡“

“I’ve only order from here but love the BOGO spicy tuna crispy rice roll. I order it at least once a week. The packaging is very cute and I am constantly craving it. ( good for me - not good for my bank account )

Highly recommend if you’re craving sushi. I also love the shrimp tempura roll. It’s citrusy compared to others which elevates a lot!“

“Excellent Sushi ! Would highly recommend. Only wished they had Saki.“

“In past decade plus, in the prior establishments- Thai, Asian fusion/Japanese - the food was horrible and portions were small, especially for takeout (think shrinkflation re: Ubereats/Doordash). We'd try every year or two but were disappointed each time. This new place, Look Deer, opened up the last couple years and we finally gave it a chance this earlier in January. It is run very well. Their sashimi is very fresh and even better, their hot appetizers and entrees - tonkatsu ramen, hamachi kama, fried oysters, salmon skin, just to name a few - are excellent especially when compared to similar small counter-style takeout sushi joints by U (ex. Sushi Bistro, Happy Canteen). Haven't tried a lot of their rolls - which are very good - since we've been testing out their hot entrees. The mackerel is unique and moist. Their takoyaki octupus balls, with fish flakes, are crispy outside and hot and juicy inside, which is how they should be versus likely frozen/precooked & reheated by others (ex. Vivi's Bubble Tea). We also love their sushi for 2, which can be pricey but amazing for a special occasion or treat since it has premium ingredients like sweet shrimp, umi and others (think toro or higher grade tuna). My wife and I now bounce between Look Deer and our regular sushi places (Nagoya, Mitoushi), which are much larger and provide a more intimate setting, including for private conversations. Look Deer is very cozy although cramped but their premium quality and wide selection more than makes up for it. Look, dear, let's try this place out again soon. =)“

“Hi,

I previous left a comment about the ribeye in my ribeye pho being raw. I apologize for that comment as I had not realized at the time that is how it would typically be served. I felt my review needed to be updated after learning that info. My pho was delicious! Just a good refreshing noodle soup. Will be trying their other items soon“

“Mr sushi always treats us so well. Excellent white fish complimentary which is a lovely way to begin this exquisitely delicious culinary experience. The staff is sensationally kind and the music just tops it off so well. I would reccomend anyone to come here.“

“Its such a clean place,with delicious flavors and awesome staff�����. I always recommend it too my friends.“

“Excellent sushi, great service, great people.“

“Expensive but it’s new York us cali people one order two pieces in NY one order one piece totally sucks“

“Chef Sunny is incredibly talented! I am his biggest fan!!!! I love James and his welcoming energy every time I go to Williamsburg. It keeps me coming back weekly. Ofcourse the food is immaculate especially the Albacore tuna and Wagyu roll🥰“

“อาหารอร่อย สะอาด การบริการดี รวดเร็ว“

“Brooklyn native but just moved into this area with my man, so we had to check this place out. Stopped in mid-day for food and drinks and it did not disappoint!

We ordered karaage, hamachi crudo, a roll, shishito peppers, brussel sprouts, scallop ceviche, and the spicy salmon crispy rice. Everything hittt

Had some unfiltered sake and a cocktail.
And Mikey behind the bar was amazing, super attentive, made excellent recommendations, and took care of us the whole time. One of the best food and service experiences we’ve had in Brooklyn.

New neighborhood spot unlocked. We’ll be back.“

“Ruth was so nice to me and my friends,the poke bowls here strike that rare balance between generous and fresh — the tuna practically glistens, cut into thick, clean cubes that taste like they were swimming that morning, while the salmon has a buttery richness that holds its own against the tangy ponzu drizzle. Build-your-own bowls are a joy rather than a chore: the rice is properly seasoned (not an afterthought), the mango and edamame add real brightness, and the crispy garlic and furikake toppings earn their place instead of feeling like filler. Portions are big enough to leave you satisfied without the heavy, sluggish feeling you get from a lot of quick-service lunch spots, and the prices feel fair for the quality of fish you're getting. My only gripe is the seating — a handful of cramped stools near the window — but honestly, this place is worth getting as takeout and eating somewhere with a view. It's become my go-to for a fast lunch that still feels like a treat.“

“First off, I absolutely love Yellowstone Sushi! I’ve always ordered sushi rolls here because they’re consistently fresh and delicious. Tonight I decided to be a little adventurous and try sashimi for the first time. I ordered the sashimi appetizer, not realizing it’s normally an assortment of different fish, and I had requested only salmon.

They called me to explain the menu and, as a one time courtesy because I didn’t know, they kindly offered to make it with just tuna and salmon instead. I want to be clear that this was a special accommodation they made for me and not something they normally offer.

I thought that was incredibly thoughtful and such wonderful customer service. They took the time to call, explain everything, and make sure I had a great first sashimi experience instead of just sending the standard order.

Thank you so much for your kindness! It truly meant a lot. I already love your sushi, and now I can’t wait to try sashimi for the first time. You’ve definitely earned another loyal customer! ❤️

If you’re in the area you have to try their spiderweb roll! It’s delicious!“

“This place is a must-go when you visit NYC! The atmosphere is beautiful and peaceful, and the hands-on sushi experience makes it so much fun. You get to create your own hand rolls and experiment with different flavors and seasonings. It’s such a unique and delicious experience, and I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Great service, the food is such a great value when you go for happy hour, but even normal price hand roll set is a good deal. Very tasty sashimi, my favorite were the salmon roll and yellowtail hand roll.
The cold sake was very good for the price.
Server was friendly and attentive.
Would definitely come back!“

“Good atmosphere! Great service. Delicious food.“

“Our waiter walked us through and explained everything to us as we are sushi novice. This was a well recommended place for sushi and sashimi and I highly recommend it!“

“The best slushies in Brooklyn. I highly recommend the watermelon and the melon flavored slushies. I really appreciate they give you the option to choose the amount of sugar in the drinks. I definitely recommend Oops for a cool drink on these hot summer days.“

“The food and service is amazing!! Made our bunch perfect!!“

“tried it for the first time today and it was incredible! it was a little bit of wait after i ordered but it seems like there’s only one person preparing everything and the lady at the register was the sweetest. so happy to have a quality sushi spot in the neighborhood.“

“I have nothing but great things to say about this place. The sushi is incredible, you really are getting what you pay for in terms of price. It’s a very small restaurant that does to go and can dine in, the food is truly so good and taste fresh each time. This was my 3rd time here in the last 2 weeks so I had to say something positive.“

“Best restaurant in the area by far! Always great service and inventive and flavorful menu, with always a nice surprise from Chef Jason. Go team Yoyo! Don't hesitate to give them some love, you will get plenty in return. I am a fan (obviously!).“

“Reservation Surprise For My Birthday Amazing Service Foid Was Delicious Everything Was Awesome Enjoy My Special Day So Happy Miyama Restaurant Was Our Choice Lilly Server Was The Best : Thank You“

“Awesome (Chicken) Katsu Curry. Got it while visiting a friend and already planning on getting it again next time I’m in town. Super friendly staff. Got it to go and they had the chicken, rice, and curry all organized and separated so it didn’t get mushy in transport. A great sign that they take pride in the quality of their food.“

“We tried 5 different rolls and each tasted great. The sushi was really fresh and filling! The presentation was beautiful.

The peach fruit tea was my favorite, large cup and not too sweet.

I will definitely be back.“

“The food is good. The store neat and clean.“

“This sushi restaurant was everything. Our waiter was so attentive to every detail during our time there. He was so pleasant and very kind, great customer service. The food was delicious. I had sushi with some fried rice and I was very pleased with the taste. But the best thing I liked the most was the decor from the floor to the table setting. I will return next time I’m around the neighborhood.“

“I don't typically often order from silver rice because they're bit small in the portion side, they have unconventional food packaging containers and they're on the pricey side. However when it comes to the quality of the food they're worth it. I just had to Nagi rice cup and a seaweed salad I literally can't stop licking my chopsticks. It was so GOOD!. Even got better as you dug into the cup lol If you're looking for something different and on the lighter side that was just at the spot. So rice is a good option.“

“I had such a great experience at Ginza Sushi today, and I honestly can’t stop thinking about it. My boyfriend and I decided to go on a casual date, and it turned into one of those meals that just hits perfectly in every way—food, service, atmosphere, everything.

We ended up ordering five different rolls, and I’m so glad we did because it gave us a chance to try a variety—and every single one was honestly amazing. The sushi tasted incredibly fresh, which is the most important thing for me.

Each roll had its own unique flavor, and none of them felt repetitive or boring. The rice was seasoned just right—not too sweet, not too sticky—and it held together perfectly without falling apart when picked up. The portions were also really satisfying. Sometimes sushi spots give tiny rolls that leave you still hungry, but here it felt like we got a good amount for what we ordered.

Another thing that really stood out was how fast the food came out. We barely had to wait, which made the whole experience even better. It’s such a plus when you’re hungry and don’t have to sit around forever. Even though the service was quick, it didn’t feel rushed—they still took care in how everything was presented.

Speaking of service, it was genuinely so good. The staff were attentive without being overbearing. They checked in at the right times, made sure we had everything we needed, and were just overall friendly and polite. It made the whole meal feel smooth and stress-free.

What I also appreciated was how clean everything was—from the tables to the presentation of the food. It just adds to that feeling of trust when you’re eating sushi, especially.

Overall, this place is definitely a great choice whether you’re going on a date, hanging out with friends, or just craving good sushi. Between the freshness of the food, the fast service, and the comfortable atmosphere, it really stands out as a spot I would 100% come back to.

If you’re thinking about trying Ginza Sushi, I would absolutely recommend it. Today’s experience was easily a 10/10 for me, and it’s now one of my go-to sushi spots. 🍣“

“Nice and cool in this sweltering weather and happy hour prices from 3 to 7 on a Sunday!❤️❤️❤️“

“I am bias , since i got a taste from this restaurant , whether lakewood or Flatbush , it’s always a delight. Never found any place that can match the Poke Ball they make. Its been 8yrs since i got to taste the food of “ THAT SUSHI SPOT” and every time it hits the SPOT!!… try it and you will never regret it.“

“Excellent food! Highly recommended. 😍 fried sushi, mango avocado cucumber roll.“

“Food on buffet was cold that was suppose to be hot and old shrimp had been on the buffet so long it was dry smh a waste of money I would never go back there“

“We ordered a couple of platters (and more!) for a small family party. The food was delivered on time and was absolutely delicious. David is a pleasure to work with and really aims to please his customers. One of our family members has a sesame allergy and he went above and beyond to ensure that the food was sesame free!“

“Best sushi I've ever had“

“stumbled across this place afterschool with my friends and wow we were pleasantly surprised! the restaurant's atmosphere and decorations were so cozy and themed perfectly! the sushi rolls are presented in such an artistic way and the fish quality is so fresh. the mango roll especially was my favorite, the mango was so sweet and it matched perfectly with the shrimp tempura. all in all i would recommend this place for anyone who is looking for an affordable sushi spot that is also family-owned!“
