Take advantage of the 3 sushi roll lunch special. It is very fairly priced and you get a decent amount of food. I went with the eel avocado roll, yellowtail scallion roll, and salmon roll. They were perfectly fresh, nicely spicy, and packed with flavor. I also got a sashimi appetizer which tasted very fresh, light, and delicious. They provided an assortment of yummy fresh fish which were all very good. Portions are big, so I was stuffed and happy. Prices are more than reasonable for the quality and amount of food you get. It's definitely a great value in Riverdale. I have been ordering from here on and off for years, and the consistency is unreal. Fresh ingredients, delicious execution, and that neighborhood charm keep us coming back. If you're craving authentic, satisfying Japanese food without the fuss or sky-high prices, Tokyo House is the spot.

The roll pictured is the Indiana roll with salmon skin inside and eel/avocado on top - very tasty.

Kiraku Sushi offers the best possible dining experience in the neighborhood. I deeply appreciate…read moreboth the simplicity and the quiet sophistication of this place. After visiting regularly, I've come to know the wonderful people who run it--with professionalism, warmth, and consistency. A quick disclaimer: I'm recommending Kiraku based on a personal preference for sushi that honors traditional preparation--clean, balanced, and free from excessive sauces or unnecessary embellishments. I've been to highly rated sushi spots where every piece is smothered in sugary, multi-ingredient sauces, masking the flavor of the fish and turning the experience into something overly rich and far from authentic. Kiraku stands apart. Their sushi is beautifully restrained--great-quality fish, well-prepared rice, and flavors that are distinct and harmonious. For those who enjoy bolder options, there are a few heavier sauce-based rolls on the menu. But for me, the real strength of Kiraku lies in its refined, minimalist approach. If you appreciate true sushi craftsmanship, this place is a hidden neighborhood gem with extremely good pricing for the quality you're getting.

From their traditional rolls to their signature creations, every bite is fresh, well-crafted, and full of flavor. I've never actually dined in -- I always order takeout for my regular Friday night sushi fix -- and it never disappoints. Whether you're a sushi purist or love trying new combinations, Tomo has something that will impress you. Highly recommended!

The shumai appetizer was light and delicious. The sushi was a solid 7/10 - good quality with fairly standard flavors. The katsu don wasn't the typical bowl-style dish; it was served on a plate with plenty of teriyaki sauce, but it was still very enjoyable. The bill was affordable, which was a nice bonus. Would 100% come back!

It's pretty small and it seems that the majority of their business might be takeout. I zeroed in on the "three sushi roll" dinner, so I ordered that with a miso soup and a side of seaweed salad. Starting with a very nice green tea, I didn't wait long for everything to arrive. I found everything to be fresh and of good quality. I will definitely order takeout or stop in for another meal when I'm in the area again soon.

One friend ordered hibachi with steak and asked it to be done medium rare but ended up on the well done side. I ordered the spicy maki combo, rolls were very skimpy it seemed as if it was a 6 piece roll cut into 8 even then there wasn't a lot of fish. Tuna tasted odd and seemed really bright red. The seaweed around the roll was also hard to chew and was quite moist as if it might have been sitting around for a bit. Overall the restaurant had non-attentive waitresses that is extremly rude, gets you order incorrect then blames the customer. I don't think she understands ENGLISH.

I know that I'll be ordering from here more often so I'm glad I took my chances and tried this establishment, as other sushi spots in the Bronx I've tried just weren't my favorite. I had 3 rolls & a miso soups. I ordered the eel avocado, AAC & sweet potato roll. All 3 were super fresh and tasty. The miso soup tasted a bit watered down but I ate it anyway. I placed an order off their website and the delivery was smooth and all food was intact upon arrival. The delivery guy was pleasant. Good delivery experience.

I also enjoy the kitchen apps and entrées- the miso eggplant and agedashi tofu are great appetizers. The salmon teriyaki is always perfectly cooked and accompanied by fresh vegetables. As other reviewers have mentioned- the construction of the rolls can suffer at times- for me this usually looks like 1 at most 2 pieces losing their integrity when I pick them up. My friends and I agree that this is Riverdale, not A sushi hotspot desitation and we would rather sacrifice a point on the physical construction /proper sushi technique than go somewhere else that has beautiful perfectly rolled sushi- with less fresh fish or rolls that are more rice than filling. Also- the sushi IS good! I usually go for salmon, tuna and a sweet potato tempura roll The lunch specials (monday-saturday until 3:15 pm) are a really good deal and come with pretty good miso soup and a fresh side salad. I am appreciative that they run a little later in the day as well. Aoyu has always been very reasonable abt modifications- there is no upcharge for brown rice for lunch bento- easy to request veggie instead of pork gyoza, and I really don't like crab- imitation or otherwise- so they always let me sub a cucumber avocado roll instead. Thanks for being such a great restaurant in riverdale Aoyu!

The staff was friendly and welcoming, which made for a pleasant experience. Parking was convenient, with both street parking and municipal paid lots nearby. As for the food, I thought the sushi was okay. The salmon, scallop and tuna Nigiri were fresh and tasty . They were definitely one bites. The inari was pleasantly sweet, but the rice wasn't packed tightly enough into the fried tofu pocket. The loose, unfilled end made the texture a little off and less enjoyable. The futomaki didn't include the tobiko listed on the menu, which is a typical ingredient in this roll. It also lacked much flavor, so I probably wouldn't order it again. The Unagi was very good. My daughter said I don't eat eel. We also ordered the seafood tempura, which included shrimp, lobster, scallops, and vegetables. The seafood had a light, crisp tempura batter that I enjoyed. The vegetables were less impressive, as the batter was thicker and lacked the delicate, airy texture and crispness in a tempura that which they achieved with the seafood. My daughter ordered the pork katsu curry. The pork was fried nicely and came in a generous portion. The Japanese curry sauce was lighter than what we've had at other restaurants, which she actually preferred. Both entrées were served with miso soup and salad and were good. Most Japanese restaurants you get either or so kudos for giving both. They don't have a full-service bar, but they do offer beer, wine, and sake. Overall, the service and atmosphere were enjoyable, overall I found some bites better than others. The meal was really better than a three but not quite a four too bad you can't give half cause it's definitely a solid 3.5
