I came here on a weekend for a pickup order. I had been wanting to try this for a while because I've never had vegan sushi before with imitation fish (as opposed to a vegetable roll). I specifically got the salmon avocado roll and the spicy tuna before. First, probably to be expected, but it's pricy. At a random sushi place near me, each of these rolls is $6.50. Here, each roll is $12, but they give you 8 pieces instead of the usual 6. The food was really good! I would definitely order from them again. It also traveled well. I didn't sit inside, but it looks like a modest but clean restaurant if you want to eat your food inside. The one note I do have it give is that it was very hot in the restaurant. They had a wall-mounted fan towards the front (and they had put their only two dine-in guests right under it), but when I went towards the back to get my food, it was hotter than it was outside on an 81 degree day. I don't know how the workers could stand it! For takeout, it as great though. read more

Amazing food & knowledgeable staff on gluten allergies too.. The food is like artwork. Highly recommend!

The flavors are very very good. The creativity is sky high. But the prices are also high and the portions small. For the curious yet budget conscious: I recommend coming not too hungry. The service was fine but lacking in warmth and engagement. The staff seemed interested mostly in each other than the guests. They did not introduce the food or engage in any typical conversation about the cuisine. Finally, they told me that they don't take reservations. So I called ahead to find out about the wait. They said they would hold a table for us (which pleased me) and when we arrived asked us if we had a reservation. Then when we said we did not but that Al had saved us a table, they looked bewildered and bothered. I just don't think it's worth it. Maybe the other locations are better? read more

Beyond Sushi fan here! I have been to the other location down in union square and you just can't beat vegan sushi! It's honestly very filling and I love that it is so healthy and they have a lot of options to choose from that I can't decide! I got the mushroom and split rainbow roll with my friend. Also, I got the five guys dumplings because the dumplings have the best flavor and also the crunch that they put on top adds a lot to the texture. We wanted to eat indoors, but since it was such a hot summer day we decided to order takeout since their AC wasn't working that day. The wait staff was pretty accommodating since we sat at a table deciding whether or not to stay at the restaurant for a while, and then just deciding to order takeout and find somewhere to eat it outside. The takeout did not disappoint as their presentation was not sacrificed and their sushi was still very fresh. The cutest thing about getting takeout was that their sauce comes in a mini capsule where you can put on your food! Overall, if you're craving sushi and want to try it with a vegan twist, I recommend going to any Beyond Sushi location and to make your way to trying all the flavors and options they offer! read more

Loved this vegan sushi spot right near Central Park! Review of the food: Chicken satay - Our favorite by far. It was served nice and hot. The spicy peanut sauce was delicious and the consistency of the "meat" was spot on. Would highly recommend! Ube Crunch Roll - Our favorite sushi roll. Came with a sweet sauce that paired perfectly with the ube crunch. The sushi had a wonderful flavor and bite to it Mighty Mushroom Roll - Very good roll. Earthy mushroom flavors really came through but it was a little too much mushroom for me Sweet Tree Roll - I am a big avocado and sweet potato fan so I absolutely LOVED this roll. Was a big hit with my family as well Truffle Shiitake Mushroom Dumplings - Disappointing. They came out fast but were were served a little cold and quite frankly were a little bland - none of the chili came through and we had to request hot sauce on the side/dip the dumplings in soy sauce to add flavor. Overall solid 4 stars. It's a very bright, clean spot with fast service if you're looking for a healthy vegan meal before venturing into Central Park! read more

Best place I've been to in a long time for vegetarians. Everything we tried here was amazing. I love having so many options and just being able to try new and different things that aren't found at other places. I wish I could try everything on the menu. Definitely coming back. The service was also super fast. Plenty of seating. Friendly staff. Pricing was slightly high but it's also NY. read more

Husband and I were enjoying a nice spring bike ride around Central Park and decided to grab lunch here before heading home. This location was listed as having an area for bike parking and as having outdoor seating available, but unfortunately, neither was true when we arrived. Luckily, it was such a beautiful day, and we were able to take our order to go and sit in the park. We both ordered the lunch special, choice of two: signature roll, maki roll, dumplings, or miso soup. We each got a roll and the dumplings. Excellent all-around - fresh, healthy ingredients, filling portions without being too heavy. Wish there was a Beyond Sushi near Fort Greene, Brooklyn - would eat here all the time!! read more

Favorite vegan sushi place in the city! Such creative and tasty dishes! A must try!

Food is amazing and service is great best vegan sushi. I went to the other location for my birthday and it did not disappoint

What a treasure! We lucked out to have this gem of a restaurant next to our hotel and now I'm obsessed. The food was innovative and delicious. We had the Spicy Jack Crab, Ube Cashew Cheesecake, and Chick'n Yakitori Skewers. Everything was 10/10. read more

When I'm in the mood for sushi, I usually crave more simple and traditional Japanese makis and rolls, but I can definitely appreciate what Beyond Sushi is doing here with their creative plant-based seafood! So colorful and unique! Very New York style. We ordered the nori taco sampler and spicy mang roll. The vegan salmon and tuna in the tacos were so realistic it was kinda freaky! But delicious nonetheless. Service was great and the food was excellent. It can get a bit pricey depending on what you order and how hungry you are, but i think this place makes for a perfect dinner spot for two :) read more

The food here is amazing! I was so impressed with their ramen! I'm happy that vegnews recommended them! I can't believe it's vegan!

The coconut curry is nice and warm and very filling. It's served with a a side of lime and the flavors blend so well in a delicious harmony. The coconut curry includes rice noodles and beyond chicken (I believe made from soy). I also had the cauliflower, it's good but made with a flour batter. Overall great experience with awesome people, nothing but good vibes! read more

Delicious vegan options. Rolls and desserts are delicious. Note that items labeled as spicy are actually spicy.

I had been wanting to try this restaurant since a vegan friend recommended it to me (I'm not vegan but I thought it would be interesting to try). I will say I didn't expect the restaurant to be so small, but it's nice how you do have table service. First off, I really liked the music (artists like Khalid). The server was also friendly and checked in on us regularly throughout the meal. The restaurant was pretty empty so we got our food quickly. We ordered the Sweet Tree sushi to split and the noodle soups separately (Miso and Coconut Curry). With the noodle soups, you can choose whether you want ramen, soba, or glass noodles. The sushi was delicious! It melted in my mouth. I would go back and order the sushi again for sure. The noodle soups, on the other hand, were pretty disappointing. We both ordered ramen since the server said that was the most popular option, but the noodles were definitely overcooked and therefore too soft. My miso broth was overly salty and in the end, neither of us could finish the soups. Giving this four stars because of the service and sushi, but I wouldn't order the noodle soups again. read more

I was really excited to try this place. Their menu offers a variety of choices going from sushi to tacos. Ever since becoming vegan I've missed eating sushi and this place brought me back to why I enjoyed sushi so much. The ingredients were so fresh and the vegetables had a nice crunch to them. The Buffalo cauliflower was sooooo good, it was honestly one of the better ones I've had. The tacos were to die for, I wish I would have ordered more. So I honestly wasn't too impressed with the ravioli. I just felt like it was a bit bland for the amount I spent on it. Overall the food was pretty good, the prices were a bit high, but most vegan food is pretty expensive anyway. I might give it a second try and try other menu items! But if you miss having sushi, this is one place to at least try some good flavorful vegan sushi! read more

Wow! Just arrived in Manhattan- yelped vegan tasty spots. Beyond Sushi delivered. Awesome taste- love the Chicken Bao rolls 10/10, sitsje dumpling solid 9/10. Both very flavorful- Bao rolls had great kick(ask for light sauce in my opinion). Mushroom roll best of 3 rolls tried. Service also great. Will be back on next visit. read more

As a vegetarian, eating sushi doesn't have many options for me. It's my favorite food, and to see it as solely meat disappoints me. That is why I love beyond sushi. This was our first time at the restaurant, and when we were seated, music was playing, people were laughing, but it wasn't too loud at all. The staff was super friendly and awesome, and don't even get me started on the food. Actually, I am going to start on the food. IT WAS AMAZING. STUNNING. DELICIOUS. good. I never knew how good fake meat could be. imo this restaurant is the best vegetarian place in nyc. It's...hella good read more

Stopped in for apps while waiting on my dinner resi. It is a casual spot that you can happily walk into and grab a bite without resi. Quiet - calm establishment - extremely fast service and kind staff. Daylon was serving us and he is extremely familiar w beyond sushi and had some good recommendations which I ordered below. I've been to another location in the past and always try to come in and try new menu items- This time we got: - tuna and salmon tartar with avocado and gluten free crackers - my fav thing wow it was light and great I'm impressed how they made it vegan really in awe **** - shiitake truffle tofu dumplings (good- very saucy I prefer the beef dumplings)- but still a great option - spicy jackfruit crab roll- very good sushi roll but I'll be honest I'm not a crab fan (even vegan) but still we were impressed by far tasted legit. My partner really loved it and was a huge fan. Would get this again maybe with spicy tuna ;) - Ube cashew cheesecake- it was really a unique treat and very unique ingredients I can't quite say the flavors had a cheesy thick texture I think it tasted like a citrus berry or beet in it - was def diff - I would love to try the avocado cookie with matcha ice cream next time I will say the staff makes this place - the kindness - the speed and they owner has done a fantastic job creating vegan menu items that will appeal to customers cravings My fav menu items to date: - spicy tuna and salmon tartar - meatball dish with rice - vegan crispy chicken bao buns - beef dumplings Will be back read more

I wanted to like this place but I just can't bring myself to give it more than two stars. I am vegan and have had plenty of delicious and creative vegan Japanese dishes, so I was excited to try this place given the good reviews. I went with two friends, we got miso soup and each got a different roll. The miso soup was good but nothing special, and I think we were all unimpressed with the sushi rolls. They had very pretty presentation but I just didn't like the flavor. I got the jackfruit crab roll and something just seemed very off about it. I found it to be bland and the flavors unbalanced. There was a weird bitterness to all of the rolls and I was left missing the crisp, fresh taste of really good sushi. I think you would be better off finding a more authentic Japanese restaurant that has a good vegetable roll instead. read more

Amazing concept and really creative sushi flavor and combos. Perfect for those who want sushi but can't eat raw fish. I had the mighty mushroom roll, jackfruit crab, mock-tuna roll and the fried cauliflower bites. Fried cauliflower is always a hit, can't go wrong with that anywhere. I thought the mighty mushroom truffle flavor was a bit overpowering but still a delicious sushi alternative. The jackfruit crab roll was an interesting take. My favorite was the tuna avocado roll, it was the closest to real sushi. However these will never in my mind compare to the real deal, it is an excellent alternative. read more

10/10 recommend! I was a bit hesitant to order from here because I'm not typically the biggest fan of vegan sushi but this is 1000% some of the best sushi I've ever had! I ordered the spicy tuna and the spicy mango rolls and they both were so delicious and exceeded my expectations! I'll definitely be ordering from here again! read more

My boyfriend found this place while we were visiting NYC. We normally get traditional sushi made with raw fish, but we were very pleased with this vegan sushi restaurant. The presentation was beautiful (you almost couldn't tell that there wasn't real fish on the rolls) and the rolls tasted good too! One of the rolls we ordered tasted so similar to smoked fish--I think it was the equivalent to a Rainbow roll. I would go back here again. read more

I'm a creature of habit so I get the same thing every time. The lunch special with sunny side sushi roll and zany carrot noodle salad ($12). The zany carrots noodle salad has this sweet pickled taste to it which great since the flavors of the noodle, cashew, tofu and avocado are muted. Also there's a spicy jalapeño peanut sauce that gives a small kick without tasting like peanut butter. The sunny side sushi roll is a bit on the sweeter side due to the sun dried tomato. It's topped with a butternut squash mash that isn't sweet at all. Overall I really like this place and the food read more

Hmmm. I visited the 37th Street location the last time I visited NY and had a great experience. I've also been to the Chelsea Market and Financial District location and ordered takeaway. I wanted to bring my friends here during our most recent trip. We decided to go to the 56th Street location since it was the closest to where we were. This location is super small with only a few tables. The tables are VERY close to each other so it's very cramped. The lighting is also only semi-lit. I ordered the coconut curry soup, mighty mushroom roll and nutty buddy wrap. The coconut curry soup was not good. There were a lot of pieces of lemongrass in it that I had to spit out. The flavor was also off. The rice in the mighty mushroom roll was too hard. The nutty buddy wrap was good. Maybe they were just having a bad night, but this location wasn't as good as the other ones I visited. read more

The best sushi you will ever have. Hate Fish? Try this! Eating healthy? Dine here! Hungry? Look no further! Trust me. Even if you ain't vegan nor vegetarian, you will enjoy the sophistication of their sushi rolls. Each roll has a complex flavor combination of fresh ingredients and coupling of the perfect sauces. While this place might be a vegan's heaven, I first discovered this gem years before I transitioned into this diet. Just be adventurous and try something new today. The mushroom and mango rolls are my top picks and I return every time for these rolls specifically. All the rolls are good to be honest, you can not go wrong with any of them! Sunny Side Roll- The combination of sun dried tomatoes and pesto made this one taste like pizza rolls! This one is full of flavor and great for cheezy fans. Spicy Mang- The spicy toasted cayenne paired with sweet mango and avocado makes this roll a clear winner. While not too spicy, this roll balances the flavors for the perfect roll to order. Green Machine- Also topped with pesto, this one is a lighter version of Sunny Side. A pleasant way to get all your greens for the day. Sweet Tree- As sweet as it sounds, this roll is simply delicious. You will not taste spiciness of the toasted cayenne but rather all of the delightful goodness. Mighty Mushroom- The "meaty* roll of the bunch. This one is usually everyone's favorite. The braised shiitake paired with shiitake truffle adds another depth to this roll, making it savory and a must-order-item! Pickle Me- A great roll to cleanse your palette at the end of the meal. Super crunchy and great for those who want something on lighter. All the rolls are $6.95 each and comes with 8 pieces. Certainly quite a deal for the city! Come in and try for yourself! read more

Go back to the old menu! My first three visits were awesome. My last visit the first of November 2024, was not tthe same. The menu changed for the worst. Maybe they had a new chef too, because the three of us who previously loved the place, all left dissatisfied. It was the number one spot on my to do list, as I was coming from out of town to visit. Whatever you do, don't get the Brussel sprouts! Nothing to order at all. Just streamed and sweet, for $14.00! My always good, sweet potato and avocado roll, I ordered two, one had to be sent back, because it had practically no avocado at all! It's like a tourist attraction now. They didn't have the cauliflower dish nor the beef dumplings for dinner. They said the owner changed the menu. Not for the good! Even the smoked mushrooms salad wasn't quite the same either. Didn't get the smokiness this time. We left there and and went to another restaurant to be fulfilled. They were second, I thought to an awesome vegan restaurant in Las Vegas, called Chikyu vegan sushi bar & izakaya bar. read more

The best vegan restaurant of my trip to NY! Would recommend Cauliflower Wings and Spicy Jackfruit Crab. Spicy Mang didn't have much of a Mango taste to it and my friends felt like the Ube Cashew Cheesecake tasted cashew-ey (although I loved it!) I don't think you can really go wrong with any of their sushi rolls! read more

So I've been going to beyond sushi at the original location since they opened. this location in Midtown is near my job. so I'm on my way to work I stopped to get some soup, I told her I didn't want any carrots in the soup. When I asked her if I could have a little taste of one of the soups to make sure it wasn't too spicy for me she had said they couldn't do that. But the manager overheard and was in the kitchen and said of course you can Try it. and yes it was too spicy so I decided to get the other soup. she didn't ask me if it was to stay or go so I assumed she knew I would be staying since I was sitting at a table. I'm sitting there 15 minutes at least at a table right in front of her and Finally she says "Here you go Honey" everything was packaged and ready to go I just took the bag set down at the table and tried to just eat it like that. When I open the container I was flooded with carrots I've looked at her and said remember I said no carrots and she just looked at me and said Oh, I didn't hear you. I asked if I could have a bowl to put the soup in because I was unable to eat it the way it was prepared. A guy comes out hands me a bowl and walks away. Umm OK? so I guess I was supposed to put the soup in the bowl myself. So I get all the soup prepared and the the plastic spoon was too thin I had to get a metal spoon I go to eat the soup and the soup is Luke warm! Really! I'm trying hard to like this place because I've eaten at the other locations and loved it. The girl that took my order by this time had left so as I was leaving I went up to the manager and told her about my concerns. she had seen part of what went on so she apologized and said she understood. Now here's the bad part... I got food poisoning! After I left I went to work and within an hour I was deathly Ill. I don't know what was in the soup that was bad poisonous but I was quite sick for the next day and a half. I'm giving a second star because the manager was very kind and understanding and had the soup been hot it would've been pretty good. Unfortunately I will never eat any of these locations again because of this experience of getting sick. It's unfortunate because I am a lifelong vegetarian and so excited when a vegan sushi place opened in NYC. read more

Ok, this was beyond my expectations! My sister is vegan and I often like to go veg but I'm not fully vegan myself, so whenever we are together I'm always down to try strictly vegan restaurants instead of her just finding something off a menu that doesn't really cater to vegans. Anyway, we were visiting NY for just a couple days and found this place close by. I was A little skeptical at first because I am a huge sushi fan and how could vegan sushi be that great?! Well, I was blown away by how beautiful the presentation was and how delicious everything tasted. Can you please open one of these in Santa Cruz California? Haha! Next time I'm in this area I'm definitely coming back. read more

This was my first time eating here, even though I have heard about it for some time now. They have more than just sushi, but that is all I tried. We ordered three rolls, Mighty Mushroom, Pickle Me and Sunny Side. They were all rolled with black rice and the combinations were delightful! You really taste the pickled burdock root and the carrot ginger sauce. The Mighty Mushroom was my favorite, it was light but you can really taste the enoki and shiitake mushrooms! The Sunny Side really stands out with the butternut squash and sun-dried tomatoes. Overall we were very pleased. The rolls are larger than average sushi rolls and even after splitting 3 rolls we weren't rolling ourselves out the door. The staff is really friendly and willing to answer and questions you may have! They have many locations, but I believe there is only one location that only takes reservations and opens at 5, so make sure you are heading to a regular location if you want lunch! read more

My boyfriend was so sad that we were going to eat vegan food for lunch on Saturday, but that quickly changed after we tried their amazing food. This was our first time trying vegan sushi and it definitely did not disappoint! Dishes we ordered: -Fun-Guy dumplings ($8.50) comes in 5 pieces -Spicy Shroom Rice Paper Wrap ($8.50) -Spicy Mang Roll ($9.50) -Sweet Tree Roll ($9.50) -Mighty Mushroom Roll ($9.50) Yes, we ordered all of that and devoured everything. My boyfriend really enjoyed their Mighty Mushroom Roll and I loved their Spicy Shroom Rice Paper Wrap--definitely filling. All of our dishes came out very fast and the portions weren't too bad either for the price you're paying. Overall, not even vegan but this place is 10/10. Not only the food was amazing, but the service was superb. Our waiter was very attentive and friendly. I would recommend this place to anyone--vegan or not. read more
