“Do you like sushi I'll ask you again do you like sushi? Well you have to stop at Kado Sushi, people are friendly atmosphere is nice The food is great it's inexpensive what else can I say but don't take it from somebody that flew around the world for 30 years and had all kinds of food from every country well nearly every country Yes I even had goat meat not not at the sushi place lol okay well anyway tell him that I sent you I get 150% discount just kidding anyway it is a really nice place for good no no not good for excellent sushi and the people are good there really good anyway I guess I'll stop talking now just go.“

“This is our go to family place for great Chinese when some in your party prefer Japanese. Both are done well, but I really love their Chinese menu. It's huge. Their soups - wonton and egg drop don't taste like the typical take-out. Lighter and more flavorful. They have great noodle bowls, like noodle soup with wontons, which I usually have to go to Flushing or Chinatown to find decent noodle soups. For appetizers - Their scallion pancakes are light and crispy. Our main courses - Beef with Broccolli - flavorful while not overwhelmed by too much sauce, and savory more than sweet. Their scallops with vegetable sauce was light and satisfying. Their sushi bento box was fresh and plentiful. Oh and defintely order a Japanese beer, like Asahi, or a Mai Tai, if you've had a stressful day!“

“If you appreciate good sushi, stop by Sushi Vogue on Jericho turnpike. Great tasting food at reasonable prices, nice selection on the menu, and courteous service with a personal touch! They can also cater your events and gatherings - check them out for either lunch or dinner! Highly recommend!“

“I would come here all the time when I worked in Lindenhurst. Today after my church service, I drove by and noticed that they are now open on Sunday. I was so happy because the food was so good. They are now under new management. I was so happy when they still had my favorite dish- salmon teriyaki. I will definitely be stopping by more now!“

“Best sushi in Long Island“

“Felice di esserci stata é assaggiato le loro delicie. Personale gentilissimo“

“As someone that eats sushi all the time, this place ranks incredibly high. It’s become my favorite sushi place over the years. They have the highest grade fish. Always supper fresh. The rice doesn’t fall apart like subpar places do. My opinions are high of this place. I recommend to anyone that really enjoys amazing sushi.“

“The best sushi you will ever have. The rest of the food is just as good. Friendly helpful staff. This is my family’s favorite spot.“

“We go because the owners are the nicest people ever! Everything is always great“

“Kaiyo is a great local spot for high-quality sushi.

The fish is very fresh, the rolls are well balanced, and nothing feels overdone. You can really taste the quality in both the nigiri and specialty rolls. Portions are solid, and everything comes out looking clean and thoughtfully prepared.

The atmosphere is relaxed but polished, and the service is friendly and attentive without feeling rushed. It’s an easy go-to for a casual dinner that still feels a little elevated. Definitely a place I’d come back to.“

“From the warm atmosphere to the friendly service, this place feels instantly welcoming. The food is always delicious and served quickly, and the drinks did not disappoint. We’ve already been back a few times, and this cozy spot has easily become our go-to whenever we’re in the area.“

“Excellent food and service.“

“I ordered take out party platters over the phone for the workplace this past Thursday and my co-workers and I couldn't have been more pleased. The initial ordering process was smooth. Pickup was on time at 12pm even though they only open at 1130am. And the sushi, as always, was fresh and delicious. Each party platter could easily feed 4-5 people and are reasonably priced. Everyone wants to order from here again in the future (even with work being in Westbury).“

“I enjoyed the ramen very much

You walk up and order your meal, and I recieved it very quickly

As an anime fan, I enjoyed the atmosphere very much, ramen is a common reoccurring meal in the anime Naruto, which is prominently used for decoration

They also have the largest portion of pork chashu I have ever had and It was delicious and chared to perfection“

“The food and service are great here. The food is fresh and they have quite a few different selections that are not offered in any other typical sushi places. A bit expensive than other places but I feel like it's worth the treat every so often.“

“Amazing place. I was making a delivery when I stumbled upon it and I tried their menu. I love their sushi, I am on a roll of trying it all, but I'm stuck on the spider roll it's so good I can't move past it.... I like to call in advance so I don't have to wait but they're always quick. Super healthy and delicious lunch/dinner options!!“

“So happy you're back. We missed you!!! Ordered last night and everything was amazing as usual!!!“

“We have only eaten here a handful of times but each time the food is fresh for both dine in & take our. I love the 20% off when you order on-line. The staff is very friendly and accommodating allowing my daughter to customize her bento box. Tonight we took out & I left my phone on the bar. The staff held it for me in the register until I returned to get it. They definitely won me as their customer!“

“Such a wonderful spot!! The food is always amazing and the hibachi chefs we've encountered are top notch and have such a talent!! Even as an adult I'm still mesmerized by the stuff they pull off while cooking. This is now my son's new favorite place to eat, even if he doesn't want to catch the food they toss lol. We will most definitely be returning!“

“We came in on a Sunday about 8:40, well before the listed 9:30 closing time, and were warned as we came in that they actually close at 9:20. It seemed odd that it would be an issue with plenty of time to order; but apparently unlike most restaurants the closing time is a matter of when they expect you to actually leave.

Still, with seemingly enough time, we ordered, and the appetizer - soft shell crab - came quickly. Unfortunately, though it was not one of the dishes listed as “spicy”, it came with spicy mayo on top. I told the server that I can’t eat spicy food, would not have ordered it if I had known, and asked her to take it back. She gave me an argument, saying I should have told her I can’t eat spicy food. I pointed out that since they list some dishes specifically as spicy, one would assume - as in most other restaurants - that the rest are not. She reluctantly took it back, and informed us the Angel Roll we had ordered, also not labeled spicy, came with spicy mayo on top as well, so we also asked for that to be redone.

This pushed things closer to closing time, and rushed our meal a bit. But I have to say that the food was wonderful: The crab crisp outside, moist inside; the sushi fresh, and the pineapple shrimp fried rice delicious.

So despite the unfortunate attitude we encountered, this restaurant is well worth the trip for the excellent food. Just keep in mind that the closing time is not what’s listed on the website. And that it’s best, whatever the menu says, to ask details before ordering.“

“Food is always fresh, innovative and delicious. cons service: you feel like you are on a 1/2 hour lunch “rush” no matter day or evening. While enjoying your appetizer and warm sake, the wait staff piles down your entree …. I’ve learned to order my entree after I’ve completely finished my app. going for years, wait staff no personable skills though very polite. Decor cosmopolitan, they spent a lot of money on the chairs but now the faux leather vinyl is sagging, peeling and it’s hard to find a comfortable seat. I overall love and support this hidden diamond in the rough Asian restaurant“

“Best sushi I’ve had! They have Karaoke nights on Thursdays and it’s a lot of fun!!!“

“I’m absolutely satisfied with all unlimited sushi & seafood ( Seafood Boil ) with freshly prepared food, this is definitely not hurt your wallet 🪪
Let’s start with fresh & high quality seafood boil boiled to perfection, keeping it tender and flavorful with generous portions. This is perfect pairing with sushi.

Cinnabar truly delivers flavors of sushi from simple rolls to more creative specialty rolls. Diners value quality that matches or exceeds traditional à la carte sushi at a comparable price. Just can’t wait for my next visit ‼️“

“I just wanted to get something quick, I found out they had cards they can stamp to eventually get a free meal. I’ve been here about 4 other times and no other cashier has ever mentioned that to me until Alexa did tonight. She ended up giving me two for filled up cards which she didn’t have to. Her customer service was fantastic. And would definitely keep coming again. Everyone is very nice and friendly in there. Would recommend.“

“Awesome Fresh Sushi every time!“

“Great food&crew. definitely recommended“

“At Okinii Japanese Restaurant & Impressive Noodle, the name truly says it all. From their seriously impressive noodles to their beautifully executed Japanese dishes, everything hits just right. Step inside and you’re welcomed by a cozy atmosphere filled with warm holiday smiles, plus intimate booths that create a romantic private setting perfect for a date night. The menu goes deep featuring authentic Chinese rice bowls alongside a wide range of Japanese favorites from appetizers, soups, and salads to rolls and fresh sushi. Every dish is thoughtfully presented and full of flavor, made even better with a pour of sake or an ice cold beer. If you’re craving a solid Japanese fix, Okinii in Massapequa is definitely worth the stop.“

“We always have a good time here. Food is great and the chefs are fun!“

“Best sushi place on Long Island. Friendly people everything is made super fresh. Always a good time there’s always giving you a little extra.“

“I love coming here but this is the first time I've been really disappointed. I ordered their tartar and typically a restaurant gives you chips to eat with it, but they gave three Pringles for the large amount of tartar, which is really unreasonable and when I asked for more they gave exactly 3 again. So while I would return, I would never order that again. “

“Went here on a date with my husband and it was such a lovely experience. The food was fresh and beautifully prepared, and everything tasted high quality. The atmosphere feels a bit more intimate and special, which makes it perfect for a date night. Service was attentive and thoughtful, and the pacing of the meal was great. It’s not a cheap night out, but it feels worth it for the quality and overall experience. Definitely a place I’d return to for a special occasion.“

“all you can eattttttt...“

“Great Hibachi experience! Staff friendly & service was good. Food was delicious!“

“We went to Jani for its Japanese cuisine and were not disappointed. Our waitress was friendly, attentive and made us feel welcome. The sushi was fantastic.“

“What a pleasant surprise. The outside doesn’t look like much. But the inside was really new & modern looking. The food was really good. It was a crowd pleaser with all the different Asian choices. All of our kids favorites. We didn’t do hamachi this time but it looked like a lot of fun from the other tables. We’ll definitely be back. Our tummies are happy & full.“

“Absolutely 💯 out of 10 Service Servers Food Experience Amazing!! do not miss out!! we will definitely be back!!“

“wonderful little inexpensive gem !! I need to remind myself to order from them more often! Delicious ! The people behind the counter are very polite and accommodating as well!“

“I want to love this restaurant because I find it to be one of the better Korean restaurants on LI. I have enjoyed many of the apps and grilled dishes. My biggest issue is the soups and jigaes are disappointing. They are so under flavored. Korean stews and soups should be rich with flavor and spice, please don’t hold back on this. 🙏“

“Absolutely recommend. Try the sashimi pizza. It’s phenomenal. Everything about the place is great. Well worth the visit.“
