    I am surprised the reviews are not better because our experience was excellent. My daughter has ordered take out for lunch several times and has never been disappointed, so we stopped in on a Thursday evening. We were warmly greeted and seated, and service was excellent throughout our meal. I had the chicken teriyaki and it was excellent. Lots of tender, well seasoned chicken on top of a grilled onions and asparagus. It came with a cup of rice. My daughter had the spicy tuna rolls and the rockstar roll. She enjoyed both . The food was flavorful and service was excellent.

    We really enjoy coming here for their lunch specials. Always great service and delicious food. The Veggie Udon soup is delicious with subtle flavor with Bok Choy and those skinny long white mushrooms. Comforting for a cold rainy day. It comes with a salad with yummy carrot ginger dressing. Bento boxes are fresh and filling. My only complaint is I wish the peanut and avocado rolls came with roasted peanuts instead of candies peanuts. I always feel relaxed in their surroundings with ambient music and the big Bubbha watching over me

    TLDR: come for lunch over dinner. Great lunch specials and super friendly staff. ----- The staff here is always so kind. I've been here for lunch and dinner a few different times and they're so accommodating and pleasant -- checking in with us, offering water while we wait for takeout, constantly smiling, etc. I've only ever really gotten the sushi here, but it's always got giant pieces of fish in it and is overall pretty filling. Sometimes, I'll find an occasional bone in the fish or it'll be a bit fatty but otherwise it's consistently good for the price. Especially the lunch special - Three rolls for $15 isnt bad in this neighborhood! Miso soup is also excellent. While the restaurant is quiet and has a great interior, I recommend taking your food to go and eating it in the community park nearby!

    This was our favorite sushi place in Park Slope. It's always been such a treat to dine here and savor our favorite dishes. Staff was friendly, but service was a bit lacking on a Friday night. The place was clean, and the ambiance was very nice. We ordered their special roll, Grateful roll: spicy kami avocado inside, and salmon, shrimp, and tobiko too with spicy mayo on the outside. This was amazingly delicious, and the highlight of our dinner. We also ordered our usual favorite, Miso Chilean sea bass. It was served with rice, broccoli and asparagus. The miso was on a separate side dish. This was a big disappointment as the pieces of Chilean sea bass were small, tasteless, and dry. Deciding not to drink tonight, we decided to order green tea with honey and lemon. Unfortunately, the tea was also not quite the same. Although we were overall disappointed, we will definitely give this restaurant another try.

    I'd just like to thank Kiku Asian Bistro for a great lunch this week. I think the total was under 16$ and they included some really delicious food! It brightened up a difficult day. Thank you so much !

    Nice local place to stop in from on a cold day. Started out with Green Tea, then paced myself for some Miso soup accompanying a Sushi lunch special. Staff is so friendly and attentive! I really enjoy coming here for their fresh food and ingredients.

    Classic, simple Japanese cuisine. I do feel like their Salmon Teriyaki is a bit overpriced but everything I've tried is done to quite a high standard. If you go, you're best with their sushi. It hit quite well after my 20 mile bike ride.

    Food was good. Service was ok, they aim to please. The ambiance was dark, but enough light to be enjoyable and intimate

    I was in a post workout sushi kind of mood and strolled over to 5th Ave. Yelp showed some good reviews for Kiku Asian Bistro, and I decided to give it a try. I was the most important patron there, since I arrived early, and was the only diner! After a quick, friendly greeting, I selected a seat at the sushi bar. After reviewing their lunch specials, I selected the Sushi Bento Box, which comes with 4 pieces of Sushi, an 8-piece California Roll, 2 Japanese Shumai, Edamame, and a side salad or miso soup. I was dubious how this meal would be, as the total cost was only $12! The salad arrived immediately, and the Bento Box in about ten minutes. Candidly, I thought it was great. The Sushi was fresh, as was the salad. The dressing was tasty (next time I will get it on the side). The California roll is a smaller radius than typical, making it easier to eat. It was very tasty, and the edamame tasted freshly cooked. The service was excellent throughout the meal, and I was asked twice if it was to my liking, and if I wanted anything else. The traditional décor, and dark wood ambience is very pleasant. This was a great lunch, and an excellent value. I look forward to a repeat visit!

    So where do I begin...I decided to visit Kiku for lunch because I had two pickie eaters with me. My niece only ate California rolls and she never likes to try anything. I told her she needs to try news things and she agreed. When we arrived at the restaurant, it was not crowded at all (A+), so we were able to sit closer to the television (the Olympics was on). The gentleman took our orders and returned with our beverages. Once the food arrived, I was delighted and so were they. The food was amazing, fresh, seasoned and ready to be devoured! The nice gentleman noticed my niece struggling with her chop sticksnand made her an easy to use one, by using a piece of paper and rubber band! I honestly couldn't thank him enough. Attentive, clean, and I was able to watch the Olympics! Food was amazing and I didn't break the bank. Safe to say, we're going back again soon. Thanks Kiku

    Too much rice on special roll, not enough fish. Bland. Overpriced for what you end up getting. Could be better. Friendly staff.

    An absolute gem in South Park Slope!…read more We happened to be staying at a friend's place a few blocks away and was looking for something open on the later side with great food. We searched Yelp and came across Konoba Yakitori, and it absolutely hit the spot. My daughter and I loved our entire experience--everything from the food to the local neighborhood vibe to the incredibly friendly, attentive staff. Everything we ordered was fresh, cooked to perfection, and reasonably priced. We had the gyoza, edamame, Hamachi Lover, Ebi Shu Mai, and the $15 Beef Set (three beef skewers), accompanied by hot tea and Ramune. The beef skewers were a highlight--tender meat with seasoning that was spot-on. Warm, welcoming, prompt, and super efficient. The entire staff was friendly and accommodating, and our waiter was extremely helpful in guiding us through the menu. Top-tier service all around. The space is small and cozy with a simple, comfortable design. Seating is a bit tight and close to neighboring tables, but there's nothing wrong with being snug, rght? It gets busy, but customers tend to eat quickly, so even without reservations, the wait moves well. Most importantly, despite it being a intimate spot, we never felt rushed at all. It's simple, which is what makes it amazing. An incredible restaurant all around--I love this place and can't wait to return. Highly recommend!

Reservations become available 14 days in advance on Resy, so I'd highly recommend booking early to secure a table during normal eating hours. Sadly, since it was just the two of us, we couldn't sample as much of the menu as we wanted. Our server recommended a hot appetizer and a fancier option from their Summer Special menu: KARAAGE - 14 Each order came with five thick pieces of chicken karaage. The chicken arrived hot and juicy, seasoned well enough to be enjoyed on its own or dipped in the side of shichimi mayo. This was a great appetizer to share, and I'd recommend it if you're looking for a reliable classic. TEMAKI SET - 95 Served in roughly an 8"x8" wooden box, this set was lavishly topped toro, Hokkaido uni, ikura, and possibly Iberian ham, with crispt nori sheets on the side to make DIY handrolls. After scooping a bit of everything into a little wrap, I was greeted with the most intense, fresh sea flavors. The toro and Iberian ham were fatty and buttery, blending seamlessly with the velvety smooth uni and the fresh, bursting pops of ikura. I had to pause after every bite just to deeply savor it, and I lost count of how many times I said, "Wow, this is so good." Since I don't live in NYC, I generally avoid repeating restaurants even if I enjoyed them. However, Ozakaya is an exception to this rule -- it's easily one of the best meals I've eaten during all my recent visits. I don't know where they source their seafood, but it's incredibly fresh and packed with umami. Even days after, I'm still thinking about the velvety sweetness of that uni, and I can't wait for my next visit.

    I came into Muteki Udon a bit skeptical since the prices initially felt on the higher side, but…read morethat quickly changed once the bowl arrived. The portion size lined up with the cost, and more importantly, the quality delivered. Every sip of the broth and every slurp of the udon made it clear this was a thoughtfully prepared dish. I went with the niku udon on recommendation and it lived up to it. The flavor was rich and satisfying, and the quality of the meat really stood out. What really put things into perspective was visiting Raku shortly after. At a similar price point, the difference in portion, flavor, and quality of ingredients was noticeable. Muteki felt more filling and more complete as a meal. I left genuinely happy with the experience and would definitely come back to try more of their udon options.

    I stopped by for a late lunch with a friend and was welcomed into a little Japanese oasis. I loved…read morethe ambiance and decor of the place including their handmade bowls and plates, which are individually made by the owner --wow. To start off, we had the Cheeseburger Dumplings ($12), which was so unique. We've never had something like this and they executed it really well. The dumplings were filled with meat and fried with a skirt. The cheese part was topped over it like a melty dressing, so a delicious and special dish here. Plus, it had a side salad to balance all the grease here. For the entrees, we had to get the udon and shared the Niku Udon ($25) and Salmon Ikura Udon ($30). It was a nice combo between a hot and cold udon. The Niku was your classic udon bowl filled with plenty of beef and a perfectly soft-boiled egg. The broth was sweet and savory for a warm and comforting meal. On the other hand, the salmon udon was quite unique with matcha udon and fresh salmon. There is a dashi to pour and mix into the noodles, which still gave it flavor and the slurp you want in a udon. Both were so great in its own way. Even their ramen also looked great, but I love all noodles. Definitely a great spot to dine near Barclays Center. Love to come back whenever I'm in the area again. The udon dishes are on the pricier side, but they're huge bowls.
