    House soup & Salad
    James M.

    Traveling down I95 late around 9:30pm and after a look into the area I was fortunate to find Peking Tokyo open late and boasting an impressive menu selection. I was greeted by welcoming staff and an inviting atmosphere when I arrived. The sushi bar was just closing up but the staff assured me they would still be happy to accommodate my order. I ordered the Sashimi Deluxe 18 which came with soup & salad, 2 orders or the Ōtoro sashimi and a bottle of lychee sake. The staff was also kind enough to bring me one of their Seafood Special hand rolls to try which was made of a tasty tempura style seafood mix. Wonderful staffing and atmosphere aside the sashimi was fresh and of good texture, I was not blown away by the quality of the Ōtoro or the freshness of the ginger for a restaurant offering such a of the selection of specialty sushi items. Overall I was left feeling pleased, well fed and happy with the experience I had at Peking Tokyo. Great staff 7.2/10, well worth another visit during more conventional dinning hours to give the menu a better sampling.

    Best Sushi I have had in Connecticut so far been coming here for 20 Plus years. Little known place but the locals know !

    Located in a strip mall across the street from the Hilton. The five of us dropped in for dinner recently on our New England fall foliage organized guided tour. We were seated immediately. Water brought to the table. They offer an extensive menu. Japanese and Chinese cuisine. Then it became a waiting game. We waited for the order taker. We waited for our various orders. We waited for our check. Part of the reason had to do with what was ordered. We all went with Japanese food. Hubby & BIL both ordered sushi and sashimi platters. There's only so many sushi chefs. We all started off with miso soup and salad with miso dressing that came with our meals. I ordered the unagi don. Six very thinly sliced unagi over rice. I'm accustomed to an unagi filet. I ate slowly so my stomach could tell my brain I was full in 20 minutes. Daughter ordered the bento. Plenty of food. She got chicken teriyaki, tempura, and California roll. She liked everything. Hubby's sushi sashimi platter had a nice presentation. He enjoyed his food. If I were a local I'd have higher expectations but as a tourist the food was adequate and service could be improved.

    We got takeout from this restaurant and everyone enjoyed their sushi. We had a large order and it was ready in a reasonable amount of time. Convenient location near Mystic Aquarium.

    Came by for Mother's Day. It was my my mother in law first time so I was excited for her to try it. The restaurant was busy but we were seated quickly. Waiter was young but super pleasant and very attentive. We loved her. It was the first time seeing her there. We loved the food. There was nothing left. As always their food quality is the greatest. My go to restaurant.

    Fabulous food and service!!

    This dark sushi joint is nestled in the back of the plaza on Coogan Boulevard - & is currently hidden under scaffolding & construction. They make good quality sushi here & the staff is friendly ... But goodness gracious it is expensive. My go-to order (spicy tuna roll, cucumber & avocado roll, & miso soup) will run me $23. They do 6 rolls per order, which I think is pretty standard. So, almost $30 (after tip) for 12 little rolls & one small soup stings a little bit. I understand it's Mystic, but dang. They also put mushrooms in their miso soup. I don't mind this at all - I like mushrooms! But I think that's a little uncommon? I could be wrong. So heads up for all of the mushroom-dislikers out there. Solid 4/5 stars.

    Oysters

    The oysters and drinks here were incredible. Also got the Kobe beef which was out of this world!

    This was a large spot with outdoor seating along with a sushi bar. I did not get a good look at…read morethe inside as I sat outside on a nice day. The menu had a little bit of everything ranging from Thai to sushi to Vietnamese, a very fusion type feel to it. The service was friendly and the food came out in a timely manner. Three items were ordered and tried. They consisted of the sushi nachos ($14.95), bao buns with chicken katsu ($12.95) and the Mystic River roll ($19.95). The nachos had diced tuna, sliced avocado, Pico de Gallo, topped with spicy avocado sauce and tobiko and served over fried wonton skins. There was a nice portion here. I thought they were going to be small wontons, but this was a pleasant surprise. There was a great ratio of flavors, and I really enjoyed the small dicing of everything. The bao buns were topped with sliced cucumbers, spring onions, carrots, and some type of sweet hoisin sauce it appeared. The chicken was very crispy and tasty. The bun was okay. It was a little tough. I did enjoy the sweet factor from the sauce to pair with the hot and crunchy chicken. The Mystic River roll had tuna, salmon, mango, as well as avocado topped with spicy mayo and was wrapped in a rice wrapper. This was alright. There was a lot of mayo present, which took away from the fish flavor, but it still was not bad. The rice wrapper was an interesting choice, but overall, okay. Will I go back? Probably.
