Robe ImbrianoJuly 8, 2010Zo the bartender is the best thing to happen to air travel since the in-flight movie. Order an adult beverage, a rice dish and enjoy.
Dean McRobieMarch 14, 2010Um wow, the sashimi pieces were solarge it took my lame gaijin mouth two bites to eat them! Highly recommended, fresh, delish, bountiful sashimi
Jeanette MillanFebruary 4, 2011Kirin on tap! I had never seen a place with Kirin on tap. I love Kirin Ichiban!
Meisha-annMay 6, 2013Always a bad experience here. This morning I got my coffee after my meal, my coffee had sediment in it and the waitress forgot my utensils. *sigh*
Sebastian GandiaDecember 17, 2010One of the best sushi's ever. And I eat sushi whenever it I's available ;)
Erin SullivanJune 19, 2010Zoe is a rockin bartender. Great sushi and all around good hang while you are waiting for a flight...
Michael GluckstadtJanuary 14, 2011Sushi so good you'll forget you're at the airport. Then miss your flight.
Dave McCombJanuary 13, 2010Best airport sushi I've ever had. Actually really good all around. Loved the spicy tuna roll.
Arvind SureshApril 26, 2014The people working here constantly uttered racist slur just coz they thought no one here understood their language. Food is good, people are just terrible people.
Pearl WongJuly 21, 2011For $8, the uni (sea urchin) was actually quite nice. And the dragon roll wasn't half bad either.
KAugust 19, 2019They didn’t mention that they charge $5 for soggy hash browns. Waiter just asked if I wanted the side that came with the dish so it was deceiving. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
IvorySeptember 3, 2014I've tried to eat here twice and both times my food took 30 minutes and I had to get it to go in order to make my flight.
Dena AhmedMay 31, 2012New tip sushi good ramen not so much. Had ten times better for.half the price and the waiter spilled some on me
Viraj PatelJune 2, 2011Hot tea, a field greens salad, and the famed spicy tuna roll = $28 . service was very nice but super slow- don't come here if you don't have a healthy time cushion. Food was alright.
Maggie FoxSeptember 15, 2010Do the Hamachi "different kind of sashimi" on the apps part of the menu. For serious.
Kim HendrixSeptember 22, 2011One would think that sitting directly next to a table of 3 managers of the restaurant that service would be much better. Instead, the managers seem oblivious to what is going on directly around them.
heather snowFebruary 6, 2010A fresh sushi bar in an airport? What an evolved concept! Dragon roll was pretty good - phenomenal really by airport food standards...
- Kerri PintoApril 24, 2015Find someplace else. Grabbed a sandwich for the plane ride, Meat was bad. No response from customer service. Will not stop by again. 2 strikes in my book.
One of the best sushi places in New York ... Pick a roll, any roll.
Welcome to CollegeApril 19, 2011Longest. Layover. Ever. Thank goodness for this place. Great Spicy Tuna Roll!- Will BrasselMarch 27, 2010Spicy tuna roll is definitely the best airport sushi I have ever had. Service was sub par.
Cristina RomanDecember 27, 2011The sushi was great but the Spicy Sesafood Ramen was mediocre at best. The service was not fantastic and there were fruit flies floating around!
Giselle ValdezDecember 22, 2013Salmon ok...forbidden black rice is really white rice with specs of black rice. Very disappointed. Go to La Vie next door instead.
