“EXCELLENT FOOD & SERVICE!“

“I have been going to the Bay Shore, NY location for at least 6 months now and can't recommend it enough. I went with several of my co workers a few nights ago and DEO was awesome to have as a waiter. He was funny and super helpful.“

“Loved it! Very friendly and welcoming staff. The food was delicious and came out quickly. Will definitely go back again! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“Ordered takeout from here recently and had a solid experience overall. The pricing was very reasonable - you definitely get good value for your money, and the portion sizes were generous. The sushi was fresh and well-prepared, with most rolls hitting the mark nicely. It's clear they put effort into their preparation. Worth trying if you're in the area.“

“Amazing fresh fish and innovative rolls. We loved everything we tried especially the new Jalapeño roll and the Hero roll. Kind and attentive service. Fantastic! You have to try this place.“

“We dine at JBBQ at least once a week. The staff is incredible, food is delicious and overall such a fun experience! If you haven’t tried it yet, don’t walk, run! You’ll thank me later!!!“

“I cannot even begin to say how amazing this place is. They spared no expense decorating and renovating this space. The food was fantastic and is very reasonably priced. They have a huge center bar and lots of Hibachi tables and seating if you are getting Sushi. PLUS a robot brought our food! Ask for Alec! He took great care of us!“

“Yokohama is a neighborhood Gem!!! Jen and Tony are always there to help and greet you with a smile.. The serving team are so friendly and helpful. The food is amazing whether you have hot food or sushi. The sushi menu is diverse and the sushi is is flavorful and well-balanced. The atmosphere is friendly, energetic and comfortable. My friends and family come to Yokohama all the time and we love it!! You will not be disappointed.“

“Very satisfied with my dinner here. High quality fish and amazing service. Food was top tied. Very good experience, highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Surprised my husband with a surprise 50th Birthday celebration held in the private Hibachi room. The staff did an amazing job! The service was excellent, the food was amazing and the cocktails were delicious! It was excellent from the first contact with the restaurant regarding scheduling the party to the very end! Thank you again to all the staff at HIrosaki !“

“One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. That’s not an exaggeration. The food here is out of this world. The bao buns were the best I ever had, wings were crispy and delicious, and the sushi was to die for. You can tell they make everything here with love and use the highest quality ingredients. The menu is creative and I can’t wait to come back and try more of it. Lastly, the service was so friendly. The people here are down to earth and were so pleased to know we enjoyed the food. We sat down to eat and within less than an hour, so many customers and groups came in and out of the restaurant to pick up orders and were greeted with smiles and hugs. Clearly they have many regulars for a reason. They deserve more than 5 stars.“

“This Japanese restaurant had a nice ambiance and a wide selection of different dishes in addition to traditional sushi rolls. We ordered the rock shrimp tempura, the Crazy Horse roll, the Dynamite roll, and the tempura udon noodle soup. Everything was delicious and well-prepared. Service was very friendly and relatively fast. Pricing was also very reasonable, good value.“

“First time and it was excellent. Highly recommend. We will definitely be back.“

“Nice place, unassuming exterior. Sushi was super fresh, rice on my rolls was sticky (as it should be) and soft. Fish tasted fresh and was thinly cut. Prices were average. Service was polite, nothing special. Spicy salmon was actually spicy. Would come back, recommended.“

“Delish fresh real Japanese food and fabulous owners �“

“Food is delish!! Love it! The ppl are sweet too! �“

“Nice quite place to enjoy great Company“

“Delicious! Juicy dumplings, pizza sushi - amazing. Very fresh, great service. 👍🏼“

“Top notch sushi, the best prices I have seen for the quality. I’ve been ordering from Kira Sushi since about 2021, their quality has been consistent and their menu prices haven’t raised drastically like everything else does.“

“very nice fresh and delicious food“

“This place was so cute and the service was amazing, I saw this restaurant on Instagram and I automatically wanted to go. It was about a 30 minute Drive for me and it was 100% worth it. Everyone here was so nice love love love love 100% would come back.“

“Food and service is great! They are very helpful if it’s your first time here on whether to get all you can eat or deciding if you want to pick meals. We did all you can eat to be able try more and different types of beef, chicken, seafood and vegetables. Everything was amazing and the drinks are also very good. Definitely would come back and would recommend to others!“

“Our favorite restaurant!!!“

“Sam and I love going here! The food is magnificent! We love the sautéed oysters appetizer and the tuna is amazing! We never had a bad experience here it is $$$ but worth it. It is definitely one of our favorite restaurants.“

“Only sharing my review of the food because it's a primarily a take-out restaurant! My notes are that the sushi is the best thing to order here and it gets VERY busy during lunch special rush hours so order ahead on their direct website (although slightly more inconvenient than the ordering apps). Been coming here for many years since it opened and I keep coming back.“

“Lovely atmosphere, delicious and generous portions, and quality service“

“genuinely some of the best sushi i’ve had and i’ve been to nobu. they give you a hot towel upon arrival, a complementary kani style salad & sliced orange at the end! that alone impressed me but the sushi is soo delicious and fresh. I tried the “tortilla” for an app which was something i’d never seen on a sushi menu before but it was delish! the spicy tuna roll had such good flavor- a classic. The joey roll was also delicious with the perfect wasabi sauce. absolute 10/10 hidden gem can’t believe how many times i’ve driven past this place and didn’t try until now!! will be going back for sure 🙌🏼“

“The food is good and nice atmosphere.“

“Very delicious Teriyaki. We used to go to a place in Massapequa but moved out here and was very reluctant to try something new. We couldn’t be happier. There are at least three places in the food court that have chicken teriyaki but this one has them beat hands down. The line is always long because clearly they’re the beat but no worries it moves very quickly and the food isn’t a long wait either. I get double chicken teriyaki with noodles vegetables extra sauce and hot sauce. Yum!“

“My husband and I have been eating here pretty much once a week for almost 20 years. We usually get take out and create our own in home date night. By far the freshest and most delicious sushi we’ve ever had. Period. They keep the menu very clean, as opposed to other places we’ve tried where everything is caked in sauce and all just taste the same. You will not be disappointed.
Favorites: Alan roll, Peter roll (as for extra sauce on the side), Cooper roll (not on the menu but was on their old menu. You can still ask for it) and the deep impact.“

“First time here. The waiter suggested an alternative meal and then made a substitution for my Bento Box. For its size, there is pleanty of seating including stools at the sushi bar. There is parking next door where they share space with a small mall.“

“Great food and very nice service. Clean and very appealing atmosphere.“

“Never had a bad meal or drink! Service always on point! highly recommend.“

“Excellent Sushi, Teriyaki, Pad Thai, Indonesian, Szechuan, and noodle dishes. Fresh, quickly prepared and delicious. Amazing hot and sour soup. Try the Szechuan peppercorn dishes! Staff is thoughtful, polite, and attentive. Lunch specials are a great value.“

“We have had a couple of our regular haunts for sushi, and had a menu from the mail from Mizu, so we ordered to-go. The selection was better than many of the surrounding sushi joints in nearby towns, and it the rolls were better overall. Prices were a bit less, but it also helps that they give a 10% discount for online ordering. And, online they also gave a free appetizer if you were over $50. The garlic roll was interesting, and unique, and the menu has a decent number of non-tempura (fried) cooked rolls which is a nice change also. Inside the restaurant there was only a couple of tables, so they probably do most business to-go.“

“The food was good and great service“

“Food here is amazing, they're so friendly and attentive, menu choices are great, lunch special is a good price, and they pat attention to detail! I know most sushi places have ginger dressing salad and miso.. but theirs is better than usual lol. And the rolls are fresh and not skimpy. Tea is included. I love coming here on my breaks sometimes.“

“Easy to see located inside the Smith Haven mall. Clean facilities. Reasonably priced. Close to the other stores and restaurants. Close to the Restrooms. Credit cards accepted. Always a long line but it moves quickly. Nice staff. We will most likely be going back.“

“Great experience. The food was delicious, the sushi was fresh and tasty, the service was great and they don’t rush you! I would definitely go back soon!“

“Small but quiet place that puts out some of the best sushi I have ever had! Was reluctant to do this review because I wanted to keep the place all to myself! But promised the owner I would let the secret out.
Try it ! you won't be disappointed......“

“New owners, great food and service. Nice atmosphere.“

“Great food, friendly staff….“

“Best sushi on Long Island. Everything fresh. Best bargain for your dollar is the seafood hot pot. Fills you up for $11.“

“reasonable prices, great tasting food, friendly service“

“My go to for Chinese and Japanese. Have been consistent for me“

“We took my niece here for her birthday. It was her choice. She loves hibachi loves it I think we got it for the last 24 years of her 24 years on this world.

So we took a hike to this place which is not close to her house but it was well worth it. The selections were so much better the chef was so much better he didn't kill everything like they doing some of the places I didn't feel rushed out of there like you do in some other some places.

They had red snapper as one of the choices I've never seen that. And I had it and I was worried because a lot of times they overcook it like crazy. But he cooked it perfectly. I will come back just to have this.

The only one thing that I thought was a little misplaced is that you have to choose between soup or salad it's usually both it's always been both. They decided to change it monetarily I suspect.

That's really the only thing that I thought was a little off. Other than that the chef was so much fun and he did the most wonderful balloon gifts for my niece and her friend and another woman at the table.

I would go here again“

“Was there on 5-10-23 for my Birthday, I will now be going anytime I want Chinese food , the atmosphere, the staff, and of course the food was all around 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“good buffet in the afternoons“

“Gary is the man! He made my birthday very special. He put on a great show and cooked delicious food. First time there and it wont be my last. Next time I go again, I will
definitely be requesting him. You should do the same. They also wished me a Happy Birthday with banging drums. Gave me a scoop of vanilla with whipped cream for free.“
