This is a real neighborhood staple! Go outside and you'll frequently find Jeffrey, the head sushi chef, making friends. Momo is on our list of Top 10 Restaurants in Bushwick. Read more

Based on all the recommendations I tried the Pork Betty... if you go to this restaurant and don't try this, it will be considered a sin! So nice. If you are hesitant don't be! Awesome service too :)

The Pork Betty was the best pork belly I've ever had. The sushi in general was fantastic. Go here. Eat something. Be happy.

Get the Oyako roll. A cute play on the traditional Japanese dish, it's salmon and salmon eggs and was one of the more interesting kinds of nontraditional sushi I've had in a while.
Jess NaldoSeptember 22, 2014
Per popular suggestion, we requested the Pork Betty & sushi bombs. Though not exactly mind blowing, def delicious and the sushi rice may be the best I've ever tasted. Great quality and service!

Sushi Bombs: These adorable little guys are technically called “temari.” We’re partial to the Spicy Mc Bomb, with tuna, cucumber, spicy mayo and katafi. Read more

Party bomb, Pork Betty and fried chicken. All delicious. Great presentation and service. Oh and that cucumber soda is also low key bomb.
Alexandra FanningFebruary 21, 2017
Can get expensive but all the sushi is great, the ramen is so-so and the sake selection is really good
Emmett DziezaNovember 23, 2013
This place is delicious. Get the whole live uni. It's like sea candy, and comes with a stylish spikey souvenir.
Lou AllenMay 2, 2015
Great atmosphere, music, staff and food. Fried chicken is gorgeous looking, sushi is inventive and delicious. Nice twist on traditional sushi
Noah WeissJanuary 30, 2012
The sushi "bombs' are freakishly good versions of sashimi. The Spicy bomb with tuna, spicy mayor, and fried phyllo dough is required eating.
Raina Bradford-JenningsJuly 15, 2012
Absolutely amazing food, service, and atmosphere here! A small place you wouldnt think to stop, but completely worth it. Make sure to try their 'bombs': they're the bomb.
TinoNovember 9, 2015
So camouflaged that it took me quite long to actually find it. Sushi was fresh, service was quick, beer was cold. An ideal lunch in Bushwick...
DaniellaSeptember 25, 2017
Love their tasting menu (it starts at only $65) and you can order off the menu if you want something quicker / less expensive.
Callie PeckJuly 21, 2012
Want to cry from happiness. The owner, Phillip, was my server at my first bozu trip and I have spent two years trying to find the "new restaurant he was opening". Thank god. Go. Omikase. Seriously.
Vanessa VelasquezJuly 4, 2012
Yuzu sake...so refreshing on a hot summer day. Rice croquettes. Spicy McBomb...Do it. Neighborhood gem, fun, lively, open kitchen atmosphere, friendly staff :)
Jag FirerwalkerMay 13, 2016
Good place, if you get a table. It is super fast once you sit down, try the bun and the dessert. Skip the soup
Eric LoveJune 23, 2015
Another one of David Chang's awesome restaurants! There's so much variety that anyone can eat here. Yes vegans, you too. Read more
Lizzy SaxeAugust 12, 2015
Everything here is delicious, and you should definitely get some sushi. But the pork chop is the unsung hero of this menu.
Cole KennedyJune 30, 2015
The spicy tuna maki roll is aces, but for a real treat, go for the temaki hand roll. Same price, but way more fun to eat.
SerenaAugust 14, 2012
A new restaurant in Bogart St (Bushwick) means that something cool is going on inside. The menu is between traditional japanese and creative stuff. $$
The Corcoran GroupSeptember 19, 2011
A really fun and inexpensive place to have dinner with friends. We’ve extolled the virtues of the sushi, but the Momo Salad shouldn’t be overlooked!
Anthony PopeoDecember 16, 2015
Fantastic food and great prices. Sushi was fresh and delicious but, above all else, get the Japanese fried chicken.
BernerMay 8, 2013
Hands down best Pork Belly I've had in the city (that's right, I said it). Also, get the Party Bomb, awesome selection of sushi's
Arthur KozlovskiApril 1, 2015
Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Pork belly is excellent, and so is their fried chicken. Veggie sushi is also great
Madm FiaJune 14, 2016
The owner is super nice and helpful. Kitade and tsukemono are two things I would never think to order but were very good.
Nelson YoungApril 10, 2014
Pork Betty and the Party Bomb! Pork was 'melt-in-your-mouth' awesome. An OMG moment.
Minda AJuly 12, 2015
This sushi is legit. Negiri King Salmon from Tsikiji market. You'll learn about how the Japanese really do sushi.

Salmon and Ikura Hand Roll: Salmon, ikura and cucumber hand roll is also a light refreshing treat. Read more

Been here 10+ times
get roasted barley iced tea, chirashi, spicy hand rolls, and hokkaido uni
Sally RosenSeptember 14, 2013
Tofu salad was incredible. House made tofu almost tasted like mozzarella. Don't skip the spicy scallop or shrimp hand roll.
Byron WardSeptember 17, 2014
Get the Pork Betty with egg! Melts in your mouth... Spicy Mc Bomb and Sp Una Bomb are top shelf too!
Ha-ti NguyenNovember 7, 2016
tuna tartare w/ quail egg gunkan, scallop handroll, chicken karaage, and scallop miso butter. 👌🏽 skip the bombs, better things on the menu.
Matthew DurginOctober 5, 2013
communal tables in a converted garage. feels like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles meets Okinawa which I enjoy. good fish, cool servers. $ only. it's expensive, but at least the plates are small.
Jen KatanMarch 28, 2016
One of the best sushi restos I've been do. Owner is a hella boss. Get Sake!! Get everything

Gyoza is delicious, & general presentation sharp- details attended to. Love the three soy & wasabi cups with tiny spoons. The long wooden tables are beautiful. Only the lighting is a bit abrasive.
Jess GroganAugust 16, 2013
Pork Belly, Black Cod, Gyoza, Sushi Sampler from Tsukiji Market Tokyo, especially the Aji Jack Mackarel.
Nicole DuprasMay 21, 2013
The Spicy McBomb is amazing and so is the Momo salad. The atmosphere is definitely cool but the acoustics are God awful. Not a good place if you're looking for an intimate dinner.
Shahrzad ShamsAugust 5, 2018
Very good Sushi and reasonably priced. Try Spicy Tuna and Party Bomb. Saki too ;)
Nicole FormicaDecember 23, 2014
Sushi bombs and hot sake make for a delicious combo here. Feeling adventurous? Go for the fried chicken!!
Damien Basile 😈February 13, 2013
The pork belly is AMAZING! Get it with the egg. You won't be disappointed.
Zack KantorJanuary 24, 2017

The Pork Belly appetizer melts in your mouth
Blair MikelsJanuary 11, 2013
The pork chop special is the best thing on the menu. Get the special sushi they fry in day of from Japan as an appetizer.
Oliver DelgadoJuly 30, 2013
The Party Bomb is great; the Pork Belly w/ egg is a must.
Talisa ChangMay 11, 2012
We got the sushi bombs, pork betty, salad, and squid ink risotto. The food is perfectly good here but I'm not sure what all the fuss is about.
emma tangorenSeptember 14, 2014
split the bomb sampler with a friend, and don't miss the pork belly. add an egg!
FrancisJuly 9, 2015
Thanks to the charming blond lady on the L train for this tip. MoMo is the best sushi shack in NY
Alastair TseNovember 25, 2012
The tofu in their Tofu Salad has nearly a cream cheese texture to it. Probably the most interesting tofu I've had in New York.
BreMarch 16, 2014

If they have the côtes de crème with wild berries and hazelnut purée, you must get it for dessert.
The Corcoran GroupApril 11, 2011
Inventive and addictive sushi – try the Spicy McBomb, The Pork Betty and the Hotate Punch. Finally serving Beer and Sake too!
