Friend took me here for dinner. Awesome, affordable sushi. It's tough finding a good sushi place (that's affordable) in NYC but J Pan is just that. Although the service was a bit too slow- no, I'm not being a picky New Yorker. Trust me; my friend and I chatted about EVERYTHING and the food still wasn't there. However, our waitress was very polite. I had a classic roll: Salmon and Avocado & one of their House Specials: "Sweetie Roll" My friend had the same classic roll and the special "Monkey Roll". They were SO good. I completely recommend this place if you're in the area. I will totally hit this place up again. read more

This is the sushi restaurant I've been searching for. I ordered the weekend $9 lunch bento box that came with salmon teriyaki, miso soup, salad (with some sort of ginger dressing), shumai, perfectly sautéed vegetables, and 8 pieces of California roll. You can't find a better deal for the delicious meal you'll find here. Everything was perfectly cooked and fresh. Presentation was also appetizing. I've also been here a few other times for sushi and was very impressed by the unique menu selection. The restaurant is nice inside and there is a cozy outdoor seating area too. Service here is really great- friendly and attentive. I can't wait to go back. read more

Best of the best deal for sushi in nyc. We know everyone here and feel like family when we come.

this restaurant has served me rotten or spoiled sushi on multiple occasions. the first time, I received a spicy tuna roll that tasted old and sour. I immediately spit it out and accepted this as a one time issue, as my previous experiences had been positive. unfortunately, after ordering last night I ended up with food poisoning that left me graphically sick for most of the night. the only food that I had that was different than my partner all day (who was not sick) was the spicy tuna roll and shrimp tempura roll. as I had a previous bad experience, I came to the conclusion the spicy tuna was once again spoiled. no longer interested in playing Russian roulette with my sushi and health, particularly for steep prices! I'll be taking my business elsewhere. read more

Ordered takeout. Just so disappointed. Look at the photos. $11.50 for about 8 tiny pieces of cold soggy "rock shrimp". $13.50 for 8 very small tempura rolls ("fire island roll"). Ugh. Don't get takeout from here. I guess the reviews make it clear that you should dine in... read more

This is our go-to place for sit down sushi. Great, fresh sushi, lovely staff. They have a lovely garden in back for those nicer days. The delivery can be slow sometimes, so we usually try to go sit in the dining room. read more

The great part of living in park slope brooklyn is that there are tons of great restaurants. That includes our Japanese restaurants. I'm not saying they are the best ever or best in town. But they are consistent. Never had bad fish but each restaurant has its own grade of quality. Jpan is I no exception. What I really like was the had a $30 3 course meal. I found that different from the other places and there was good selections to choose from. I think one of the gems in the sections was the spicy muscle miso soup. The spicy tuna tartare was good but a bit dry and the sashimi plate was the usual array of fish but was displayed very handsomely. We also tried a shrimp tempura roll topped with banana which was very flavorful. read more

Jpan - Sushi and Sashimi for 2 - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Expected delivery time 45 - 65 minutes. Called them after 70 minutes had gone by - was told it was on the way. 30 minutes later had to call again, just to be told the same, with a prompt 'thank you, bye' - no explanation, not even an attempt of an apology. Won't be ordering again. When it finally arrived, the special rolls were very meh and one of the two had wasabi all over it. The regular rolls were OK, nothing special, but better than the special ones. read more

Used to be reliable, but JPan has fallen off. Ingredients remain solid, but skimping on the protein, soup 2/3 full, slow delivery, and bad attitude from the staff. #teamMura read more

Great service and food. This is my son's go to for take out, delivery, or sit in. Definitely a must visit you will not be disappointed.

Unfortunately, the sushi was inedible. It tasted off on first few bites, but I thought it may have been me. On further inspection, I found slime on the bottom of the yellowtail scallion roll and proceeded to choke on a shell in the spicy kani shrimp roll. Just a caution to anyone looking to order lunch from here because the food did make me physically ill. read more

If you want the best sushi in Brooklyn, go to Sushi Katseui and do the omakase at the bar. If you want solid every day sushi that is reliable and good but won't blow your mind, go to Jpan. The fish here is fresh, the rice is usually the perfect temp, and the rolls and sashimi are good. Delivery is prompt and service is friendly. Overall this is a great, reliable sushi choice in Park Slope for your run of the mill fair. read more

Great food for great price. Sushi is always fresh and delicious and the staff provides great customer service.

All outward appearances lead me to expect another average Japanese establishment catering to an American palate. Instead, I was startled by this extraordinary Japanese establishment catering to the adventurous American palate! Everything was Americanized in all the best ways. Even our waiter was ridiculously accommodating and amused as my friends and I spiraled further and further in the crass and shouty world that seems to be my life these days... he even joined in when everyone began flipping off my camera as I shot the food. It was a shame that we (they) had to eat the Tuna Dumpling which was presented to us like some wonderful editable Faberge egg. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/kAM_S06FQlhtSSyrzrJb6w?select=57Qderash2UuJgoujXtO0g More noticeable then the artistic merit were the obscene food portions; my Tofu Teriyaki was nearly an entire slab of tofu! http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/kAM_S06FQlhtSSyrzrJb6w?select=9Jv6mAcNxZ7JwSSWQDavjQ It seemed almost cruel to serve it to me knowing I had just single handedly eaten the Miso Eggplant appetizer - which also turned out to be an entire Japanese eggplant. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/kAM_S06FQlhtSSyrzrJb6w?select=-xiT6b-JfdEB2CXIcQpG4Q How I ate all this and drank two 325ml bamboo jugs of Nigori is a query worthy of NASA... ok, Myth Busters... read more

Volcano Roll comes through again! A-Train and I met up for dinner and my last review came in handy! Also had the spicy sashimi salad (gstuff - wasn't as spicy as I imagined) and the Ever Green roll (larger chunks of fish wrapped together). Service was on cue and ultra friendly. Did I catch them speaking Chinese? read more

Excellent take out/delivery sushi and rolls. You can't go wrong with this place. Great service, they're fast and the food is consistently good. A big recommend! read more

Usually when I find out a Japanese place is run by Chinese people, I imagine the food to be only decent or terrible( I could say this without feeling bad because I'm Chinese). That was the case when we went to this place and suddenly heard everyone that works there starting to have a conversation in Mandarin Chinese with each other. Once I heard that, I so wanted to make a run for the door but the only thing I could do was have the thoughts of "Oh damn I am trapped" go through my mind repeatedly because by then they had already seated us. Sighing. I looked at the menu and after a brief moment of prayer and totally putting my faith behind Yelpers that gave this place an average review of 4 stars, I ordered the $25 3-Course Special that they had going on for a limited time ( I think it was an extension of their Dine In Brooklyn Menu that was over for about two weeks). For my order I chose: Spicy King Crab. This was a slightly fried, crunchy, big chunks of king crab meat wrapped around layers of avocado on top of a salad mix and a piece of grilled asparagus. This was all drizzled with a delicious sweet, and slightly sour dressing. This plate was a good appetizer and I started to realize I might be wrong about pre-judging this place. The only problem I had with the salad was that it was called Spicy King Crab, and there was no hint of spiciness at all. Nada. Not even a bit, although I could see pieces of the peppers on the sauce. Must be the mildest hot peppers in the world. But hell, it was so good I didn't care. Rock Shrimp (Fried Shrimp in Mayo Sauce). This dish was made for the special and was not found on the regular menu ( I asked the waiter and he confirmed this). These shrimps were puny but what they lacked in size, they made up for it in quantity. It was good but this tasted so similar to the Fried Shrimps in Mayo in Chinese restaurants that it was the least Japanese of all the dishes I tried here all night. On the side of this appetizer, it also came with a small salad simply flavored with lemon juice. Refreshing but nothing too special. Salmon Teriyaki. One of my habits when it comes to new Japanese restaurants is to try out their Salmon Teriyaki. I like mine not too dry, yet with flaky meat. Preferably the skin should be crispy with a slight crunch to them. The one from this place have most of it right. There was no skin but it was good with a nice thick teriyaki sauce that wasn't too sweet. The two (Yes i said two) giant slices of salmon came on top of two pieces of steamed broccoli and unexpectedly, a small pile of Chinese baby bok choy that also went well with the sauce. It's not a spectacular dish but overall I liked it. In the end, even though it wasn't authentic Japanese food as I was expecting when I first walked in, the Chinese influenced Japanese food actually tasted pretty good and I wouldn't hesitate to go back again. The staff was very friendly, and even though we were there till almost closing time, they weren't rushing us. When we expressed interest in seeing the back garden area where people could be seated on warmer days (we were there on a chillier day so it wasn't available), the waiter actually took the time to walk us to the back, turned on the lights and let us browse the area a bit despite the fact that they were busy preparing to close. *************************************** I have to mention one other dish even though it wasn't mine. My friend chose something called Tuna Dumpling for her appetizer selection and it blew both our taste buds. And it was so pretty to look at to boot. We were expecting little dumpling like pieces (the waiter laughed and told us that was what almost everyone imagine it to be when ordering) but instead it was a giant dumpling shaped piece made up of spicy crab stick wrapped with raw tuna sitting on a bath of red wine sauce and soy ginger. Mix the sauce and mix spoonfuls of the food into it and wow. Get this if you can although it's a little pricey at 11 bucks a plate. read more

So it's about time for an update. Because I am a celebrity here. No really. I am. Eat with me here? Yeah. Special treatment. They even have a Jackie roll here. Don't believe me? Well it's not on the menu but just ask Edward. Or Joanne. Say you want the Jackie roll. And Omakase. Seriously. Last time they brought out some super oysters. Japanese oysters. Fluent in the native tongue. And lately the omakase platter has been surprising with unbelievable fresh Uni.. Monkfish liver.. you name it. And they have rock shrimp tempura. I will miss walking here when I move to Virginia. BTW.. A from the health inspector! Woohoo! read more

Had a great experience late night dining here. We got there past 10pm on weeknight. Seated quickly. The plum wine was wonderful, served in big full glasses. I kept it simple and ordered the eel avocado roll (set of 8) while my husband had the chicken katsu. Both dishes came pretty quick. Both delicious. Really melt in your mouth sushi and the chicken was soft, well prepared. We devoured our meals. Really appreciated how the staff was still attentive even though they were closing within the hour. read more

I personally don't eat seafood BUT, my boyfriend and friends love seafood so we actually come here a lot. I usually get the avocado rolls which I love.

Just keep in mind that the restaurant closes early in the afternoon between lunch and dinner. read more

After strolling around the Park Slope area my friend asked me to choose a place to eat. So we passed by this place and they have a menu outside for $25 three-course menu and it drew me in. The place wasn't crowded, possibly because it was on a late Sunday evening. The ambiance of this place is really cute and they have outdoor seating in the back with really nice lights. No matter the inside or the back of the restaurant, I find it a really cute place to take a date. They also have a cute bathroom. The waitstaff are really friendly as well. For salad I had the seaweed salad. I like seaweed salads and it was pretty good here. My friend had the spicy king crab salad, which was really good...mMm avocado! For appetizer, I had the tuna dumpling, which has a really pretty plating presentation and it was pretty good I must say...mMm raw tuna! When the waiter brought this dish to me I was confused, I was trying to think what did I order again? I imagined a few tiny dumplings, but nope it wasn't it's one big dumpling- that's why it's tuna dumpling (singular). My friend had the rock shrimp that was not on the regular menu, but it was for the three-course. This dish reminded us of the walnut with shrimp dish at Chinese restaurants. For entree I had the sushi platter, which has 14 pieces of sushi. The sushi was pretty fresh. And he had the salmon teriyaki, which was pretty tasty as well. As for dessert, we were too full to have any. read more

Initially, I was pretty stoked about this place. It has a really great vibe and the atmosphere seemed lively. Also the prices on the menu were not bad at all. However, my experience wasn't the best. Generally, I'm pretty lenient because I come from the hospitality industry. I totally get it. The issues started that people seated way after us were being served and we hadn't even placed our orders yet. Eh...And again I'd be more forgiving if it had been busy. Service was slow and we didn't get our wine until after the sushi was served. The sushi itself was pretty good. I ordered a roll of king crab and a monkey roll. Both were excellent. And then, still a little hungry I ordered a california roll. I am sushi fanatic, I am your go-to woman, I will eat! However, upon eating the first couple of pieces of my california roll I noticed it had a watery texture. Needless to say, I didn't finish it and was kind of sad about it. I'm not one to raise a huge fuss. *I was feeling sick about a half hour afterward.* Overall, this place isn't high on my list sushi places in Park Slope. I might go back to give them another shot, but my expectations are not very high. read more

Still my favorite go-to for Sushi. Wonderful and quick service. Clean space. Fresh sushi. I've tried a variation of the special rolls: fantastic, monkey, ocean, winter - ranked from The Best to ...4th Best, because they're all so good. The fantastic rolls stands out because of the crunchy fried onions sprinkled on top and within the rice. The Monkey roll sauce is delicious!! If I could have that sauce on everything, I totally would! Just realized I'm still talking about the Fantastic and Monkey rolls today on this "updated" review. Surely, you must try. :) read more

So last year when I was looking for apartments I randomly had dinner here. Tonight was the follow up with delivery & Amy schumer HBO special. Lemme tell you, this did not disappoint. I was really in the mood for some chirashi, which can be a minefield if you don't know how the fish is but I figured let's try it! Food: -spicy mussel miso: I had two bites of it bc my entree was a monstrosity. Pretty spicy, not for the faint of heart -"Never know raw fish bowl:" my great debate tonight was between the chirashi bowl & this gem. Since there was no description of what's in this I took a chance (living on the wild side tonight). All I have to say is HOLY CRAP! The serving is huge! Def big enough for two people & it comes with either soup or salad. The rice is seasoned & topped with kani, tamago, eel sauce & roe. There are 9 pieces of sashimi & some phenomenal thing that's spicy tuna wrapped in avocado. The fish is fresh. It's not like top of the line but it's still very good. Delivery was within the time frame given by seamless. I will FO SHO be getting this amazing gem known as the "never know raw fish bowl" read more

Best bang for your buck for sushi in the Park Slope area. My boyfriend and I decided to order the "Sushi and Sashimi for 2" to go. Wait time was about 20 minutes. For $54, you get twenty pieces of chef's choice of sashimi, eight pieces of chef's choice of sushi, yellow river roll and a house appetizer (spicy tuna and tempura flakes wrapped with avocado) with miso soup or a garden salad. The order was huge! And so, so filling! Fresh, thick, generous cuts of fish, it could've easily fed three people. Fish selection included Salmon, Tuna, Eel, White Tuna, Stripe Bass, Spanish Mackerel, ect. read more

Jpan - Sushi and Sashimi for 2 Entrée - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Came here for their Tuna Dumpling that was talked about from nearly everyone that went here. The place was dark, not bad for a nice chit and chat and some good sushi. They have a backyard patio which is lit with lights. The waiters and waitresses were friendly, service was good. Our glasses of water was never ever empty. Tuna Dumpling - I loved this dish! The dish was huge, in the middle was tuna wrapped around a kani salad ball. The kani salad had some tempura flakes for a crunchy texture. The two sauces on the plate which the dumpling swam in tasted delicious together also. Rainbow Fish Platter - This dish was good also. Thinly sliced sashimi on a bed of greens. The spicy sesame dressing (which isn't spicy at all) is what pulls everything together. Sushi Classic - Pieces of sushi and a spicy tuna roll. The pieces of fish are big and really good and fresh. I can pass on the spicy tuna roll because it was way too soft and mushy. Butter Flounder Fillet - The flounder was indeed good. Very moist and soft and the sauce over it was just perfect. I would actually stick with rice next time than order the house noodles because the noodles weren't cooked correctly (a bit undercooked), and lacked flavor. I think I would come back for the Tuna Dumpling and other appetizers because they tasted so different and good. read more

Came here last night after attending The Bell House for a live NPR show. It was a little after 10:00pm and I was surprised to see they were still open, since a lot of the restaurants in the area close early. My boyfriend and I were immediately greeted by our waitress. I ordered the monkey and lovely roll, which were amazing!!!! So fresh and rich in flavor! We ended up chatting with one of the waiters who was awesome and he was cracking jokes left and right. The rolls were so delicious and the service was amazing!

Best local sushi joint. The sushi and sashimi for 2 is kind of a bargain even for three people.

This place has amazing sushi... comparable with the highest quality japani in manhattan. I always bring my friends here and they are very impressed with the quality, service and great price. Why pay $500 for omakase when you can spend a fraction of that here for fresh, interesting and creative dishes! read more

This is my favorite sushi restaurant in Park Slope. Their fish just seems fresher and better quality than the other places in the area. Service is great too, but what really makes them stand out is the creative rolls they offer like the jpan roll (spicy tuna, salmon, white tuna & mango wrapped with layer of avocado & rice pancake). The chef is clearly not afraid to experiment, how else would you come up with a spicy tuna and grilled banana roll? Basically one of Jpan's rolls should be enough to fill you up (but ordering just one roll would be crazy, you want to try them all!) read more

The house specialties we read about on Yelp lured us into Jpan one Saturday, but nothing quite lived up to expectations. -The tuna dumpling looks super cool, like a big red onion on a plate, but under the thinnest layer of tuna is the largest pile of minced crab stick. So. much. crab. stick. The combination of sauces, ginger on one half the plate, a red vinegar on the other, complemented the dish well, but maybe if the dish was renamed to crab stick craziness, it'd better set expectations for people who are into that sort of thing. - Volcano (spicy tuna and spicy salmon with avocado wrapped with crispy asian pancake, served with eel sauce and sweet spicy sauce) tasted like a chewy version of a tuna roll, nothing striking or special - The phoenix roll (eel, tuna, and mango, topped with crab stick, almond, and dried cranberry, served with wasabi aioli and eel glaze) sounded eclectic and fun, but there wasn't any eel - just eel glaze, and the cranberries were a bit too much - completely underwhelming. Jpan's menu is varied, extensive and interesting, but not quite sure if any of it is well-executed here. read more
