    Must try! Everything we ordered was delicious and fish was very fresh! To start, we ordered the crispy rice which was one of the best I've had in the city and packed with fish on top. Also got the tuna tataki which was tasty, especially the sauce that came underneath it. For rolls, we got the green hulk which was so good as well as rainbow Naruto, yellowtail jalapeño, and spicy scallop. The fish to rice ratio was on point with not too much rice. Everything was packed with flavor and the plating presentation was great! 10/10 recommend

    I'm in my takeout era and decided to try this. I wanted to come and do a little solo date here but they said they wouldn't have tables for 30 mins.. ordered takeout instead and was pretty satisfied. Sushi was fresh and tasty. Will definitely be trying to sit down very soon

    My new " go-to" for exceptional sushi. Special weekday (M - F) lunch of 3 rolls + appeti,er of miso soup or green salad = $17. Shrimp Tempura Roll is my personal favorite.

    So blessed to have Ikyu on 1st. First, the employees- warm, attentive and prompt. The new space is lovely and inviting as well. Then, then there's the food-- YUM! Today was my 3rd time ordering in less than a week... guess I'm hooked! New go-to suishi spot. Consistent and delicious! For sure, 5 stars!

    Ikyu Sushi 2 - bad name, good food. The renovation from the old Green Kitchen is spectacular - the new space is sleek, modern, and has a true Japanese feel. Don't be deterred by the name - the food is tasty! I have been to their first location on Second Avenue which is very popular. The hot tea was excellent, and they have a great variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. We ordered the Karage as an appetizer. The chicken pieces were flavorful, and the spicy mayo was a nice complement. For our main courses, we ordered two rolls, and a chicken udon soup. Both were presented beautifully. Both dishes were solid for the price. The better values are their lunch specials on weekdays until 3pm. Overall, a welcome addition to the landscape of the Upper East Side!

    price - $87 per person pre tax…read more food - 5/5 service - 5/5 ambiance - 5/5 I got the chance to try out Sanyuu West for my birthday and I had such an amazing time! from the moment I stepped into the restaurant, the waiters were super sweet and attentive to my friend and I. the courses kept coming out and each piece was super tender and bursting with flavor! my favorite was definitely the uni, toro, and wagyu on milk bread course! I love how the flavors mix so well together, I felt like I was in heaven! the service was amazing, like the never left my water cup empty!!! (props to them) the ambiance inside was also super calm and vibey. overall, I had such an amazing time and I would love to go again soon

The slices aren't thin, delicate, and melt-in-your-mouth as one usually gets in a sit down; they are extra thick, and I had to really bite down on some of the pieces. The rice was nicely seasoned and was cooked well + portions are also big to match those thiccccc salmon slices. To be honest, I was getting a little nauseated after 5 pieces, haha~ They were definitely delicious but I'd probably just eat 3 or 4 pieces and share with a friend! It was easy to text the number on the website and coordinate a pickup time, and the staff was friendly when I arrived. The restaurant is a little hard to find as the windows are blinded and the sign is a piece of paper on the door.

There are many…read morerestaurants with lines that I can't say are worth waiting on, but this restaurant is worth every minute and every ounce of energy left for the wait. I've taken a lot of friends here over the course of 10 years, and without fail, every one of them has walked out mindblown--and why wouldn't they?! The wait times have gotten better over the years (probably because people are waiting for the restaurant next door), but the food and drinks here are still top-notch. Staff is always great, and they all work so efficiently. I am generally a fan of izakayas, but there are very few that offer plates that are designed to be shareable, and this is one of the reasons the food here is so enjoyable in a small group setting. I am obviously biased and think they can do no wrong, but some of my staples that have stood the test of time: Kimchi cream udon, avocado tofu salad, salmon sashimi tacos, and the kani cream croquettes. I was so excited when they opened an outpost in Flushing years ago, but sadly it shuttered during COVID. It is definitely small and there is always going to be a wait, so don't be those people who come in with a huge group during prime time because they like to move (getting customers in and out) very fast.
