“I love to eat here and my favorite dish is Pork/chicken Katsu. Always fresh and crunchy,
They cook the best katsu/curry sauce. They cook daily and it is a rich sauce with veggies and meat. Family cooking style. Simple and delicious! Thank you !“

“We ordered a party platter, and it’s absolutely amazing.
The quality of the sushi and rolls is excellent—fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced.
It’s the perfect lunch for our family of four.
Both the kids and the adults were very happy with the meal.
I’ll definitely be ordering again soon. 🍣✨“

“The restaurant was quiet and unassuming and the waitress was on some kind of silent mode, but the food was properly cooked and served. The salmon lunch box was pretty good, although the salmon was a little bit sapid. the sushi rolls were fine too.“

“We had a very nice dinner at Shoyu Sushi. The shrimp gyoza were crispy, creamy, and full of flavor. The chicken yakitori was cooked perfectly, crunchy on the outside while still tender and juicy inside. We also enjoyed several sushi rolls, all of which were fresh and well made. Friendly service.“

“starting with the most important: the food is amazing. delicious. flavorful, spicy when needed, mild when desired, this place is perfect at curating the best dishes.
next: the staff. the people here are courteous, kind, funny, and personable. They are there at a moments notice to provide you with what you need, whether that’s a fork because you’re terrible with chopsticks, or extra spicy mayo.
and last: the aesthetic. this place is beautifully decorated and curated for the perfect experience. It is gorgeous with its decorations, the way the space is utilized, and its ambiance.
I would highly recommend this place to everyone, and I bring all of my friends and family here. And we all leave with the same thought: wow.“

“Staff treats you like family, love how the place is always decorated, and decoration is included in the prefix menu's, birthday packages for free! Food is great, loove the ceviche and chicken mofongo with white sauce. My son is a fan of their Chowfan. They also cater for parties! To me the most important thing is the music, whether there's a dj or not, the music is great! They play everything!“

“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!“

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

“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 service, delish is food! Never disappoints.“

“I chose the sushi deluxe, and I guess it’s similar to an omakase style. They told me it would be 9 pieces with one roll, and honestly, all the selections were great. The fish was very fresh and high quality. I was also really impressed by their service.

My friend and I were deep in conversation and lost track of time, but they never rushed us to leave. I will definitely be coming back and will make a reservation next time (we were lucky to get seats with no wait just by walking in)!“

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

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

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

“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.“

“Our favorite sushi spot - love and crave their red dragon rolls. Also their salmon fried rice yummmm“

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

“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.“

“Fogama provides seriously delicious Japanese dishes, that are expertly created from a vast and varied menu. Every dish was enjoyable and appreciated. Service was great when we first arrived, but then lacked on a very busy Friday evening. We will definitely return.“

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

“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.“

“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“

“Great food abs great environment!!“

“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😊“

“Always delicious & enjoyable. My ‘go to’ place when friends come to town.“

“I love it!! And the place is clean“

“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!“

“Best Sushi in Yonkers. All the rolls are absolutely fresh and decadent. The quesadillas are excellent as well. A fun mix of Sushi & Mexican. A must go to if ever in Yonkers. I even dare say it is the best sushi in the Bronx. They are located less than 1/3 of a mile from the Bronx border and they deliver to the surrounding neighborhood in the Bronx. The guy who took our order is very amicable. The sushi chef prepares the rolls right in front of you. It was a great experience.“

“Excellent! Everything is always amazing! Great friendly staff. I live down the street and they remember my preferences and are overly accommodating.“

“Big portions, fresh food, and very nice service. The staff was friendly and made us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. Everything came out quickly, and the sushi was fresh and delicious. Definitely a great spot if you want good quality food with generous portions. Will come back again!“

“It’s a tradition in my family!! We always have the best time. It’s local and the people make it special. They were all awesome to my Granddaughter . I’m a customer and a fan.“

“Great food, wonderful drinks and a fabulous atmosphere✨️❤️“

“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 atmosphere friendly great food fresh very pleasant👌👍“

“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!“

“Nice I’m environment great aromas and wonderful food is nice place to just enjoy a decent meal“

“Great food , good service!!!“

“This place is super safe especially with Outdoor dining and super super better than Mamasushi!“

“I have consistently ordered sushi from this place and it has never let me down. I live on McLean and I’ve tried so many other sushi spots, but nothing does it as good as TOMO. Honestly there’s no reason for me writing this review besides sitting in my living room thinking “there’s nothing better than this” and feeling like other people need to know too.“

“Tokyo Japanese restaurant not the largest place but the food far outdose any other local Japanese restaurant, , friendly service . Great prices. Not much more you can ask for.“

“The kids loved it and they even ate“

“Very friendly staff and great food at a reasonable all you can eat price“

“Had the Omakase Style yesterday. Was amazing. Highly recommend this place“

“Run of the mill asian fusion resteraunt. They have amazing options and great staff. They are always quick with the food. By the time I get there its always hot and ready. You get what youd expect.
Its a little pricey compared to the other take out places in the area, however it is by far better in quality. The interior is always nicely decorated with wall murals with cartoon characters.“

“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“

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

“I'd like to happily say that I've been to this place several times and ordered delivery a few times as well and they've been consistently great. All staff are very friendly, and the delivery is fast and correct. They have great lunch specials with rolls, but I've had dinner there before, too which is just as good. Hibachi-seafood(though I had it served to the regular table)-was delicious and a quality portion, but the sushi is just as good. Their avocado salad is great.“
