I waited until my second visit to make my review. Average food in a great location. Every piece of sushi fell apart when I picked it up. Salad was large pieces of iceberg lettuce and some cucumbers with a sour vinegar yellow dressing....not typical ginger dressing. Restaurant staff are efficient and reasonably cordial. Atmosphere was sparse. If you want better Japanese food, head over to Dewitt. read more

Our second time here with kids and we LOVE it. The place itself is very humble, kind of like a countryside diner - it is cozy and friendly - you will be taken care of right away the minute you step in. The personnel are polite and quick, and your food will be ready in a blink of an eye. And the food here is of much better quality than some of the upscale sushi places!! Delish. All of it. We've tried probably half of the menu and every dish is great. Thanks so much guys, we're coming back for sure! read more

Went to dinner last night and tried something new that I haven't tried before. The shop was clean and everyone was quiet and polite. Get Bibimbap, it came out great! read more

One word: YUMMY I decided to try this place today as it was on my way to the True Value Hardware store & I'm sure not sorry that I did. This was the best food I've had in a long time. This lunch redefined the word perfect. It changes the curve on great food. I had ordered take out, the Shrimp & Vegetable tempura "lunch" special (it was more like dinner size). It came with dumplings that were extraordinarily delicious. Very generous portion of tempura; the shrimp had a thick coating of delicious tempura this is a true indulgence. The sauce was incredible, might have been a little high on the salt content. The California roll was fresh and delicious. It also came with a salad and rice that I haven't tried yet because I an full. All for less than $14 Please was clean, staff was friendly, gender neutral bathroom. read more

I will start this as I always do by saying that I don't give out five stars unless I am really blown away. I really am struggling with this review as I really wanted to give this 4 stars. I have eaten here a few times, and most of the time food is very good. Even this time the food was good but the service was lacking. They were short staffed. My better half and I stoped in for lunch on Saturday. We were told that we could only order food to go, but we would be able to eat it at a table there. We decided that we would just take it to go. We ordered four rolls which were all delicious. The man that was preparing Our sushi rolls was wearing gloves. The other guy that was working was not touching our sushi but he was preparing some fried ice cream for another customer and my better half watched him do this with no gloves on. He touched the food multiple times preparing. He never washed his hands between touching the register my credit card, the receipt, the handle to the freezer, the counter, ice cream and the Panko crumbs. He then had his fingers in the whip cream that he put on a fried ice cream as well. My better half pointed this out to me while it was going on so I did see him finish preparing this. So we watched the sushi chef to make sure he was diligent in being clean. We will never be back. It's to bad the food was always good. read more

My parents absolutely love this place as the service is quick, food is consistent and the owners are friendly! I opted for the avocado salad to start which was a decent size and tasted fresh. I absolutely love ginger dressing and theirs is definitely more watery than creamy but the taste was on point. My dad got the rock shrimp tempura to start which comes with about 10 pieces of shrimp fried in a spicy Mayo sauce. I did not try it but it looked good and he finished it all! I also got the Summer Island roll which is a speciality roll wrapped in cucumber versus seaweed and rice; the perfect choice for me! The fish tasted fresh, the cucumber was light and refreshing and the sauce on top was flavorful. I definitely recommend this place as the prices are relatively low, service is quick and the fish tastes fresh. read more

Great selection of sushi, clean and quick, a bit on the higher end of cost but overall delicious.

Always great sushi! Usually pretty busy so expect a little longer wait for to go orders. Usually don't dine in just because it's so small, but always our top choice for sushi. read more

This is my favorite place to go for sushi, bimbipop and so much more. The service is prompt, friendly and always helpful. I went there for my birthday early this month and had the best meal. It's nice and quiet but bright and open. The only thing I wish is that it was a larger location so I wouldn't worry about my kids running around but that's just my problem haha. read more

Best people great food The service is fast and seriously the best sushi I've ever had read more

I'm updating now review regarding the Korean fare at GTS: They now seem to have got it right. The sole waitress on duty each time we visit seems a little overworked, and it's nice to see the chef/owner occasionally step out from behind the counter to assist her with serving. All in all, a nice casual place for sushi, Japanese and Korean fare. read more

This is a great little place in the middle of town! I always get the CAA roll. It's always fresh and yummy! Fast service and friendly staff. Definitely my favorite spot for lunch! read more

Maps and google said this sushi restaurant was open until 9PM today (Thursday, 9/8/2022) so I went in at 8:20 and asked if I could get sushi to go as I did not want to eat there and make them stay open later than 9 but was craving sushi so badly. When I asked if I could get sushi to go, one of the cooks yelled and threw his hands up in the air. Started yelling at the hostess and then she translated to English for me to let me know that they were closed (8:20 pm) and I drove about 25 minutes to get there. I apologized for being an inconvenience and left. Honestly feel like there was a much more professional way that could have been handled on their part so I did them a favor and went to google and submitted a request to update their hours to reflect that they close at 8 PM so nobody else gets screamed at. 100% will not be returning, super disappointing. read more

I went early on a Saturday evening. The service was friendly and quick. The seaweed salad and sushi were better than I expected from a place in a small town. read more

Great food, excellent service! Very clean and fresh sushi with quick service. The owner and waitress were wonderful. The sushi was quite good. read more

We've gone there for take-out about a half dozen times, and finally went in for a sit-down lunch. What a pleasant surprise in Manlius! The service was just right: attentive without being overly so. The food was DELICIOUS --we had Maki combo platters, and the miso soup hit the spot, since we were both getting over colds. (Miso is up there with good Matzo soup as a "cure-all" in my book!) Definitely worth parking a little ways away (go park over by SnoTop and walk 1/2 a block). read more

I thought pretty highly of this restaurant when it first opened - sushi was above average for CNY. After eating there again recently I think it's gone way downhill, both rolls were barely edible and I threw most of my lunch out; oh well, off to get ice cream at Sno Top as my backup. read more

As I expected amazing as I walk into this little sushi joint next to famous duckpond in Fayetteville I see a little kitchen in the front nicely needed was good smelling food and a little dining room next to it we order and everything looked very good in the beginning the food as I looked around easily as we got our food we ate it all and it was simply great my new favorite sushi joint I feel warm and welcome when I am in the air it feels like a dojo it is amazing! read more

This is my go to sushi place on my day off, it simply can't be beat. The prices are about what you would expect from a sushi place and the people are super friendly. I usually order Through GrubHub end it gets here pretty quickly read more

we live right in manlius and we LOVE good times!! i have tried something new almost every single time and i have never been disappointed. my favorite though is the rose garden roll - if you like tuna/salmon/crab salad then definitely worth the try. some rolls are deep fried which is quite tasty, but if youre expecting your sushi to be cold, and not warm, definitely make sure before you order. if it says "flash fried" then its quickly deep fried. my partners favorite is one of these, so they are very good! just something to be aware of so youre not disappointed :) the service is always prompt, and straight to the point. they also prefer if you pay with cash, and will give a discount if you do, so we always try to remember that. such a sweet locally owned spot that we love to frequent, both for take out & dine in. read more

The place is fantastic!! My husband and I happened upon it on my birthday. The fish was great quality, the service was really nice. I loved the rolls we ordered, and the presentation. I wish I could give this place more stars than just 5. Everything was so good!! A must go!! We got the agedashi tofu and it was sooooooo good! read more

This place is small and takes no reservations. However, the menu is extensive with a lot of tasty options. Good quality food, fresh, and great ambiance and service. I think it is the best sushi place in the area and they are welcoming. Family friendly, affordable and exquisite food. read more

I've had a few more solid meals here since that review. The spicy rainbow roll is a great go to. Syracuse isn't the best place for sushi but they do an above average job. read more

Awesome food alert! If you like sushi... You must go to  Good Time Sushi in Manlius.  I had lunch there yesterday and can't wait to go again. We had a Playboy Roll shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, asparagus, crunch, and shrimp on top and a Hawaiian Poke Bowl with Tuna,lettuce,seaweed salad, avocado, scallions, pepper, red cabbage, cucumber, crab salad,edamame, carrot on top of sushi rice with ponzu sauce (a citrus based sauce with tart-tangy flavor similar to a vinaigrette. It contains a mix of ponzu (citrus juice of sudachi, yuzu, and kabosu and vinegar), soy sauce, mirin, and dashi.) read more

We have been here at least 4 times since open. Always awesome sushi. The noodle bowls and appetizer are always a hit in my house too. Easy ordering and takeout. read more

Everything is good quality but the sushi isn't made well and doesn't taste right... it's just as bad as Kyoko's in Fayetteville. Too much rice vinegar and too little sugar in the rice. The rice is fresh instead of made in advance and cooled, resulting in a grocery-store sushi roll of sticky goo. And, they're rolled so loosely that my friend and I kept losing a third of the roll, just dipping it into the soy sauce. Not to mention the rolls take FOREVER to come out. We were a party of two with only one other party of two, who already had their food... 35 minutes to get our 4 rolls out. One small takeout order came in while we were there. That's all. My own sushi is better... tighter, faster, and doesn't taste like vinegar. Very disappointed since we were so excited to have a sushi place in walking distance. I will say the miso soup was very good. Again, the ingredients were very fresh... the sushi was just poorly made, like Kyoko. I wonder if maybe people are used to sushi tasting like that instead of how it should, because of them, and think this is good? read more

The staff is extremely friendly and the food is delicious. The ingredients are fresh and your meals are prepared with care. I especially enjoy the bibimbap and the yaki udon soup. Sometimes the service is a little slow but it's a small price to pay for quality. read more

Really good sushi. Great portions and great prices. Loved the chirashi bowl. If you are in the Syracuse area, check this place out.

Attentive service and speedy delivery! Fish tasted very fresh. Would definitely recommended!

I love everything about this place! Friendly service, amazing quality, freshness and taste - just perfect. So glad to have it close to home! read more

Very good! Fresh, delicious, and great service. We had dumplings, miso soup, shrimp, and spider rolls. I will come here whenever I want sushi... but since the sushi was so good I will look forward to trying other dishes as well. Price was very reasonable! read more

Ordered the tofu soup, seafood udon and spicy tuna roll. Hardly any seafood in either dish except for calamari tentacles and each had one shrimp with the shell on which was annoying since you had to remove it and get the shell off and place back in the soup and udon. . Had broken clam shells in the soup also. The tuna roll was not spicy and very bland. Also expensive for what you get read more

Fantastic experience! Great pricing, amazing flavors and wonderful service. For $43 dollars I got a good sized bowl of soup, 32 rolls of different types of sushi(same types grouped in 8) and insanely delicious fried ice cream. Defiantly a new favorite spot read more

Great sushi place! I come fairly regularly and have never had a bad experience. The servers are always friendly and the sushi chef is also very personable always saying hello or goodbye to anyone coming or going. The sushi is fresh and nicely presented. The only negative is that it's sometimes hard to get a parking spot at peak times because the restaurant next door is always busy. read more

Before my mom and I became regulars around 2 years ago we genuinely believed the best sushi joint around was the sushi bar in the wegmans. But when it had just opened we decided to drop by and we were absolutely blown away by how good the food was. No matter what we got, it was delicious. Even things I thought I wouldn't enjoy, like raw squid sashimi, tasted simply amazing. But not only is the food delicious, but the people are very friendly. From the waiters taking your order to the people behind the counters making your food, it seems like you've known everyone working there for years. Out of the many times I went there, I had only one semi-bad experience where the place was crowded and it took almost an hour to get my order. But all was forgiven when I tried their savory yakisoba. Unfortunately I haven't been there in a while but I'm definitely looking forward to my next visit! read more

We are SO happy that Good Time Sushi came to Manlius. Everything is delicious and fresh. The staff is incredibly friendly and the portions are large. There's definitely something for everyone on the menu and not to mention their lunch specials are incredibly priced. I can't say enough good things about this place... the sushi is the best that we have had since Japan! read more

Tried this place for the first time tonight and we absolutely loved it! We were a group of 5 vegetarians (exciting in a sushi place, I know). We had the vegetable tempura, seaweed salad and avocado salad to start and then a bunch of sweet potato and avocado rolls. The tempura was so delicate and crispy and the rolls were delicious. Prices were very reasonable and service genuine and friendly. Will definitely be back. read more

It may be surprising to discover a great place to eat in Manlius since the options are slim, but Good Times Sushi is a great addition to the Village of Manlius and may be the best Sushi in the Syracuse area. Good Times Sushi almost bombed my review. It was not busy when my wife and I arrived. We waited a while for an empty table to get clean, but the busy hour had just passed since we arrived close to 8pm. The drinks didn't get to our table for at least 15 to 20 minutes and the diet coke was in a can. To be honest, I tried to order a beer, but Good Times, at the moment,? does not serve alcohol. So Diet Coke was my next option. I didn't like my Diet Coke in a can. After all, I am out to dinner at a new place with my wife; I expected a cup or glass with a straw. Oh well, this could change. We placed our order... Miso soup, edamame, and three rolls, spicy salmon, shrimp tempura, and sweet potato. Keep in mind, I could not order an American Dream Roll because the salmon supply was low which is why I ordered the spicy salmon roll. There remained enough salmon for it. The food kicked ass. Miso soup, usually not very exciting, was the best and tastiest miso I have ever had. Oh, the sushi was amazing; heads above anywhere else I have ever eaten and enjoyed sushi. There may be some kinks to work out as Good Times Sushi catches up and figures out its dining patterns, but they will. My final bill was reduced by half for no reason other than them feeling bad about being iverwhelmed on a Friday night. I would have paid full price regardless. This is a great restaurant and I had to give it a 4 Star rating because the food and service exceeded my initial impressions. Good luck, Good Times Sushi. I hope your here for a very long time. I will be back soon. read more

Best sushi around hands down. Always fresh and delicious. The service is also always on point, staff is very friendly.
