    The salmon poke bowl I ordered was a great change of pace from the usual serving style. The jazz background provided just the right mood and the restaurant made for an overall great lunch stop

    When I go to a restaurant, there are several things I consider. I think about the menu. Will I enjoy the offerings based on descriptions? Do they get good reviews? Is it fresh? Is it clean? Is the cost in line with the selections? Does the ambiance justify a higher cost? How friendly are they, front to back? I traveled to Brooklyn to see my daughter, and since my birthday was last week, she wanted to take me and my gf for dinner. We narrowed it down to sushi, and then two choices. We selected Bushniwa, and I'm glad we did. We started with gyōza, served upside down under a cover of something crispy. I'm not sure what it was, except delicious. The gyōza were perfectly cooked and flavorful. We also got edemame, steamed and fresh. We ordered three rolls, Crazy Tuna, Hot Dragon, and Roll of Kings. I think Roll of Kings was my favorite, but all were good, and the crab was real! The manager and server were very attentive and friendly, and brought a complimentary homemade black sesame ice cream for celebration. We also ordered Mille crepe, a 22 layer Japans sweet potato based dessert. Don't miss it! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, the food was great, the staff friendly, and the cost reasonable. I'll be back!

    An example of how their rolls arrived. Do not order from here

    What a joke. Over priced and brutally made sushi. Ordered $70 worth and they shoved into one tiny box all smashed together. The popcorn shrimp came soggy and flavorless. Called the woman about the poor delivery and she offered 10% on the next order. THERE WON'T BE ONE!

    A friend booked this place for dinner and I thought it would be just another overpriced hipster Japanese spot. After all, it's right in the heart of Bushwick and has that modern design with black walls and hanging plants. Turns out I loved it! We got the sashimi platter to share, it was absolutely delightful - each person got over a dozen pieces of fish and a bowl of rice or salad. Also tried the pork buns and the vegetable gyozas, both of which were very good. Service was great and music wasn't too loud, it was perfect for an intimate dinner. The value for money is solid, the food came pretty quickly, and I will definitely be back!

    Pad Thai for Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve Cheesecake Tempura because my brother Vincent is at your restaurant but historically

    Thanksgiving and Christmas wedding would be ideal so even in Subconscious language I'm going to order from you in the future

    Decided to check this place out, when visiting family in nyc, this is one of my brother and his wife's favorite places so I'm glad I got to check in out for myself. The service here is great, so friendly! However not over bearing. Which I love. We had delicious matcha margaritas! One of my new favorite drinks, I also tried the blushing gheshia, which was also tasty. For food we had, edemame, which is one of my favorites, we also had veggie dumplings, and some delicious seasoned shrimp. For my main course I went with sushi since it's my favorite, and it was fresh, delicious and I ate every piece! Loved this experience and would love to get back when I'm in the area!

    Absolutely immaculate, the food was so fresh and prepared perfectly. The decor was incredible. The hostess was one of the nicest I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Easily a top restaurant of my life

    Ordered delivery from here. The food was good, and the presentation was great. There were no utensils and no soy sauce. Given the prices they charge, they should be able to get the details right. Una don (eel bowl): the eel wasn't deboned. The bones were more or less edible but I would still prefer deboned eel.

    Su-shi how delicious this sushi looks?? Let me share with you probably my favorite sushi spot in NYC as of now - Bushniwa located in Bushwick, Brooklyn, NY. I love the aesthetic inside and have ordered both dine-in and to-go from here. They have a wide variety of items on the menu, from starters and appetizers, rolls and specialty rolls, sushi and sashimi, to dinner plates, soup, noodles, sweets, and more! Some of my go-to's are the shrimp tempura and Philadelphia rolls. They are mighty in size and taste. Their house salad & dressing and miso soup are tasty too! Service is always attentive and friendly and the prices are affordable and average for a Japanese restaurant. I can't recommend this spot enough!

    I've been here a few time in the afternoon and I've been able to catch their lunch specials. You def get more for your buck when you get a lunch special but they have similar items on the dinner menu. I've only had the tempura veggies and shrimp with rice as a main. I don't know most of the vegetables they tempura lol but it's good. I don't really like the sauce that comes with it so I usually get a side of eel sauce. It's a nice hidden gem to get some peace and quiet and good food alone. I don't know how busy it is for dinner but I know it's usually only a few people the time I go.

    It was a cozy, quaint atmosphere and the perfect day for some ramen. My good friend and I went on…read morea rainy Saturday late afternoon. It was just what we needed that day. He ordered the Honey roasted duck ramen and I ordered the spicy salmon miso ramen. Before our ramen came out, we ordered our drinks which were a Thai Iced Tea (can't go wrong with that) and he ordered the Lychee Iced Tea. For apps we had the Veggie Spring Rolls and the Edamame which were so crunchy with just the right touch of salt. We may have visited on a slower day since it was raining, but I can tell that it is a popular eatery and can get busy and packed. We lucked out and were seated immediately and didn't wait long for our food. The server kept refilling our water glasses which was much appreciated. I thought my cup was half full and i'd look up and all of a sudden theres even more water poured. Overall it was a cute restaurant and would be perfect for a lunch. Although we had ramen, they have an extensive menu. Check them out!

The fatty pork belly pairs excellently with the shoyu brother. The vegetable toppings give a light, refreshing contrast to the oily pork belly. Overall, loved this spot! Plenty of seating with a newly added bar. The service is a 10/10!
