Burce ErgelMarch 10, 2014A large variety of food at the buffet but not of good quality in general...
lauren c.July 11, 2012Great food. Sushi chefs need to pick it up a bit. They can't keep up with the customers.
Spencer LemieszJanuary 24, 2014BEWARE!! Friday here is considered a Weekend, so you get charged MORE!!!
Go early and stay late, try everything! I love the oysters, crab legs and sushi!!!
Lonnie KahoeApril 21, 2015Not worth it for lunch. There's better quality for a cheaper price at any other sushi lunch special. You'll also be fighting for the popular sushi with people who have no consideration for others.
The security here is the rudest I’ve ever met. One shoved me then grabbed my arm so hard I had a bruise
G WongJuly 19, 2011Go to some other restaurant and get real Japanese food. This is alright if you were in the suburbs, but this is NYC people!
Celine SchmidtJanuary 28, 2017Worst restaurant experience ever! The food is bad and the service even worse!!. In My opinion if you take 34$ for a meal it has to be good, wellcooked and fresh - this place has none of that!
Ashley is the best waitress. Gorgeous and considerate.
Katie PrescottFebruary 21, 2013$30 all u can eat place not the cute sushi bar it looks. I walked right out
Регина МалаховаOctober 20, 2014Bad place! We came at 2 pm , there was a bad assortment of rolls. Food was insipid. Cola smelled of bleach. And bad service, the waitress only brought the drinks and demanded for this a more tips
Mike BianchiJuly 29, 2016Good place, but a little too expensive. Don't eat the sea urchin. You've been warned.
For a weekday lunch, try to get there around 12-12:15. If you wait past that, you'll have to wait in line.
Kate SwanSeptember 22, 2012Pricey for the weekend night. This food and place overall are not worth that money. Go to any other Japanese place. Drinks are ok but they didn't have a lot of the listed on menu. Won't go there again
- macro apeJuly 10, 2014Crab leg is too salty. ####food is not fresh #####diarrhea immediately in restaurant !!!!!!!!
Maxim SemirenkoJanuary 18, 2015Not so tasteful, but good choice. Desert is bad - only fruits were good.
Freda TanMay 21, 2013Be careful of the "compulsory" tip and being made to pay what they want to be tipped. Doesn't that contradict the whole tipping system?
if you havent been seated yet - make a quick exit and go elswhr.
Razor calms are often still wiggling at the buffet. Fresh but not for the squeamish.
Sharon ChengJuly 4, 2012Sushi is not best choice there. Try to eat as mush seafood as you could to get the $ worth. Some of the staff have really bad attitude.
Francesco VSeptember 14, 2015Be very careful at this expensive restaurant. Doesn't look like they have any sneeze guards and clientele are pretty much dirty. The food did me in. Not cool.
