Unbelievable happy hour prices for beers, cocktails and food - as cheap as $1 for a bowl of edamame. Great portion size, the fish tacos were super tasty (comes with 3 per serving), the sushi is fresh and contains minimal rice in each roll. read more

Reviewing location in Chelsea - The food is pretty good and there is definitely an existing standard leaning towards quality, but the service! Now, having said that although the food was decent, there were a couple of questionable choices in the overall presentation and plating and the sauces that accompany the black cod bento box I ordered, which did not actually come in a box. Everything is brought out piecemeal so you don't get an actual meal before you, but a lot of little plates brought out at different times, kinda like the Japanese equivalent of Tapas. We have been to this location twice, hoping the first time was a fluke, and trying to give them a chance only for the second time to be worse. The waitstaff is entirely disengaged from the customers. They rush you through the order process and don't explain any of the menu offerings, such as what is the difference between the different platter options. When they do come over, you are greeted with the sweetness and warmth of an unemotionally flat "What do you want?" After you get your food, no one comes over to refill water and cups are initially filled halfway with too much ice. No one comes over to remove plates afterward, and they definitely show no interest in finding out if you are enjoying your meal in the least. The booth we were sat at had not been cleaned after the last party's use so there was sauce all over, and it got on the back of my pants, which I later discovered while walking home...the joy. After eating comes the best part, they come over with these tablets outlining your check on the screen. Meanwhile, the tablets are strapped to their bodies the entire time. They don't allow you to scrutinize the charges in peace, no, they stand there impatiently for the duration either swerving from side to side of tapping their foot signaling discomfort that you're taking way too long. The funny part is the straps have clips to remove the tablets so it's not like it's impossible to leave the tablet and come back shortly. The whole process feels very rushed and pressurized for you to tip with one of the predetermined button selections, which start at 25%. Ummm, service sucked so no, we're definitely NOT starting there. I guess now we're both disappointed. Eventually, you get no paper receipt for your records even if you ask for it to be printed. And the whole time, the waitstaff is with you judging you on your tipping and not even being graceful enough to restrain their reaction. So no, not going back, and definitely would not recommend as a place to have a good time. Now, if you're looking for an uncomfortable experience served by someone that completely ignores you during your entire time there and expects an exorbitant tip to boot, then yes, this is the place for you! read more

Great atmosphere, delicious and reasonably priced food, attentive service. Can't go wrong with crispy rice and hand roll set. Enjoyed every bite. Definitely coming back. read more

Decent happy hour deal, food was tasty and came out super fast. Cucumber salad had a delish dressing. Pork Gyoza were really good and the dipping sauce was actually fire. Spicy Crispy Tuna roll was fine, not really crispy. Salmon Avocado roll was perfection, huge pieces of salmon and so fresh and good. $3 japanese beer during HH too yes please. read more

4 massive maki rolls for 20 dollars with a miso soup or salad?? Perhaps the best lunch special I've ever seen, sign me up! The quality and size of these rolls genuinely impressed me. This is absolutely my new favorite work lunch spot. I got the salmon, tuna, eel avocado, and yellowtail scallion rolls. Service was quick and attentive, would definitely recommend! read more

Great HH deal!! And all the cocktails were actually amazing!! You'd have to get the yellowtail rolls, they were the highlight of the food menu! Its is very pretty inside with the japanese/asian decor. The staffs are very attentive. During the Happy Hour I could see that they were dedicated to keep things moving! They seem to get busy at around 530pm, so get there early (or make a reservation if you can!) Would definitely come back again read more

Easily one of the best lunch sushi spots in the area. I had an appointment nearby and was starving and really craving sushi. I passed Mikado, saw it had great reviews, back tracked and sat at the bar to get myself some lunch sushi. The service was fast and friendly, ambiance is a little high end and honestly I felt like I was a little underdressed. I ordered the 8 piece sushi lunch special which came with a tuna scallion roll and miso soup. The miso soup was hot and fresh, the sushi selection basically tasted like omakase sushi to me, it was delicious and fresh. The rice to fish ratio on the roll was just right. I was so full by the end of this meal, all for $22? Incredible. I would definitely come here again especially for lunch if I'm ever back in the area. read more

I had this saved for awhile on my Google Maps after seeing some videos advertising their awesome happy hour deals. My friends and I decided to come here for lunch actually, since we had another activity close by. They offer a lunch special from 11am-3:30pm EVERY DAY, which is absolutely amazing for our Sunday lunch. Usually lunch specials like this are only available on weekdays. I made a reservation on Resy just to make sure we could get seated right away. There were still plenty of tables so it wasn't super needed, but it provided peace of mind. The space was very nice with the decor, and plenty of seats. On the way to the bathroom, I saw they have a back space, which seems to be a private space, so good for hosting some private dinners and parties. The fish was very fresh and delicious. Not skimpy at all. We left full and am excited to come back again. We got the unagi bowl, the salmon ikura bowl, the kaisen bowl, and 4 assorted rolls for $20 - yellowtail jalapeno, spicy crab, eel avocado, and shrimp tempura (only complaint is the spicy crab didn't really feel spicy lol) read more

I haven't had sushi in quite some time and I was craving some one afternoon. I did a search for sushi happy hour spots and this one came up. Their rating was pretty high and I noticed as I walked up to the restaurant that delivery guys were pouring in and out of there. I took that as a good sign. What drew me in is they have happy hour on food and drinks every day from 3:30 pm to 6:30 pm. You can't beat specialty cocktails for $7, beers for $3, wines/sake for $5, sushi rolls for $6, and appetizers ranging from $1 to $5. Truly a deal! I had one lychee cocktail and it was delicious and refreshing, not overpowering. I ordered two sushi rolls, and although they were fresh and delicious, I was quite disappointed that you only get four pieces for $6. The edamame ($1) was tasty. The standout of the night were the sushi tacos (3 for $5). They're tiny but so damn addictive. So much that I ordered another. I would go back just for those. Also, the service is quite fast! read more

Pee-Eww. Sushi marinated in Fabuloso. We came in at 9:55 pm on a Saturday night for a quick bite. No drinks just wanted sushi. The tall waitress with a mask over her face and just under her nose greeted us with a stink-eye. Letting us know that they closed at 10:30 pm. No biggie for us because we wanted to eat and leave. We were seated at a table that smelled like a mixture of soy sauce and a urinal. We asked Stink-eye to please move us to another table. She acted so put out. We ordered within five minutes while she loomed over us. Once our sushi came out, we were three bites in when they decided to marinate the restaurant in Fabuloso. Try eating a $70 plate of sushi while becoming intoxicated with Fabuloso. The Hispanic gentleman came over to us and apologized for the smell. Stink eye reminded us that they close at 10:30 pm. We had to have our food packed up so we could go eat at home. There are so many sushi restaurants in town that you don't need the bother of poor service and a smelly atmosphere. read more

Came as a party of 2 on a Sat evening @6pm as walk in + was able to be seated right away despite the restaurant being decently packed. Happy Hour ran until 7 pm, so I was able to order a hand cut roll off the menu - FYI their hand cut rolls are 4 pieces. What we got: - Crispy Rice Starter: Topped w a good amt of fish. Def a 1-2 bite per piece starter! - Crunchy Salmon Hand Roll: Rolled tightly and the fish-to-rice ratio was perfect! - 4 Set Roll: Opted for the cut roll, but also had the option of a hand roll (taco shaped) - Salmon Ikura Don: Standard, but plentiful! The interior is pretty spacious + has a comfortable back room with extra seating. Staff is extremely attentive - although it's prob bc they wanna keep turning around tables quick. Portions are decent! Would come back. read more

Nice place to go for happy hour that ends at 6:30pm. The cucumber salad, edamame, sushi tacos were delicious. Each sushi roll comes with 4 huge pieces, very fresh and tasty.

One of the best takeout sushi experiences I've had. Everything comes beautifully and neatly packaged but none of that would matter if the food wasn't good. I got a sushi and roll combo with the crispy rice and one additional roll. The sushi assortment was amazing, each piece was better and flavorful. There was a great variety of fish with a few repeats like salmon and yellowtail. Crispy rice was still warm and crispy, despite traveling far and long to get here. I got an additional role with a special garlic yuzu sauce that was very good. Everything was enjoyable and I highly recommend. read more

Came here a bit last minute and was confused; they were booked out for reservations however when calling the restaurant we were notified that they had an open table available for us. We ordered the below- Caviar Dumplings Truffle Mushroom Bacon Fried Rice 2x Maki Roll Sets Service wasn't exceptional and this is definitely one of those spots that has a 70-80% fish to rice ratio where they put more fish inside the roll, which I know majority of people like. Like any restaurant trying to survive in the city, the lunch menu is exponentially cheaper than the dinner menu so if you do want to take a dip and trial this place out, then I'd recommend either capitalizing on their happy hour/lunch menus. read more

This review is regarding the "bento box" to go. I thought it was a good value. Enjoyed the tuna ball, salad and edamame. Sweet potato tempura roll was large with a tasty sauce but not the best I've ever had. Teriyaki chicken was served lightly fried and with veggies and sauce on the side (not enough IMO) -- overall meh. However everyone else liked their sushi and they have good deals if you order delivery during happy hour timing. read more

We ordered delivery and although the presentation was nice and well packaged, we were really disappointed by the quality and taste of the sushi. There was a lot of rice, and the rice was not good sushi rice. The quality of the fish was not great either. Next time, I would try a different place instead of ordering from here again. read more

We had a group of 10 people that was easily accommodated. One of my coworkers called ahead and when I went to the front they seated us pretty fast. We originally miscounted with 12 people, which would have made the space tight as they tried to squeeze additional seats at a long table that would only really comfortable sit 10 with 2 seats on the side since the third side was against the wall. Luckily we came 30 minutes before happy hr and this deal is great. Each maki roll is 4 pieces but they're big and they do not skimp by putting mostly rice. Everything was fresh and tasty with the right consistency of rice. The staff was friendly with requests and attentive. Overall, great experience and will def come back again! read more

I came here because of a TikTok I saw about their happy hour. The restaurant was beautiful and they were able to seat us without a wait on a Saturday at 4:30. We ordered happy hour drinks, appetizers and rolls. The drink was good but strong. The sushi tacos were a real stand out and a great value. The happy hour sushi roll is only 4 pieces but seemed nice and fresh. But a little smaller than we thought they would be. Would go back. read more

Solid Japanese food! I got the hand roll set which came with 4 rolls! I upgraded 3 of them (all except the wagyu uni) and it was so good!!

I think the ice cream was mid but cheesecake was delicious! read more

Thursday night minutes to 6:30...I sat at the bar and the staff was attentive and thoughtful. Let us know happy hour was coming to an end but didn't stress us and let us take our time deciding what we wanted. I had the Mikado Mule, the spicy crunchy Kani roll and a shrimp tempura roll. The rolls were delicious and a nice portion. The spot is adorable inside and bigger than I expected it to be. While walking to the bathroom I found there was lots of space. We waited a while for our rolls but the place was bustling for happy hour and it was delicious so can't complain too much. I'm definitely coming back. read more

Would definitely recommend as a elevated dining experience for lunch or dinner - super cute date spot or even for a client dinner! The staff was super friendly and sweet to my party of 4, including two kids under 10. The only thing that was frustrating was that the only other party that was there midday on a Monday were seated RIGHT next to us, a party of 2 at a 4 top which seemed a bit silly and loud for no reason. We got 4 rolls, edamame, the sushi tacos, and the matcha cheesecake! All really decent portions, especially the sushi. I'll definitely be back to try the lunch special. read more

Mikado fooled me as it appeared to be authentic high quality Japanese food. I should've followed my gut when I saw figured out that it was a local chain. We left after receiving our appetizers, because we were so underwhelmed. Never be afraid to pivot when you're not feeling a restaurant to avoid wasting money. Luckily it was pretty affordable, which could be a plus for some, but I personally was optimizing for authenticity. read more

Mikado offers fantastic lunch specials between 11-3:30. I almost don't want to share this hidden gem. Fresh sushi, donburi and bento boxes are all great prices. I ordered Kaisen Don which had salmon, hamachi, tuna and salmon roe over rice. Loved it! Fresh ingredients, flavorful options and nice relaxed atmosphere, make it solid choice for a quick, delicious lunch. If you are looking for Japanese food without breaking the bank, I highly recommend. I must come back for other dishes & "Happy Hour"! read more

LOVE coming here, especially for their happy hour. Everything is so cheap ($1 edamame, $6 cocktails, and $6 rolls!!!). Typically also have pretty good deals on Uber Eats and Doordash, so make sure to keep an eye out if you're ordering takeout! It comes in a cute little box with the soy sauce, ginger, and wasabi inside. The interior itself is pretty modern and nice inside. The service is fast and amazing! Kind of a hidden gem, especially with their happy hour deals so definitely worth a try to come here! Great deals, and overall their fish and sushi is pretty fresh! read more

Go for the happy hour if you want cheap drinks and really fast rolls being pumped out to your table. Taste overall was okay, but really can't complain for the prices.

My boyfriend and I went for happy hour (~5:30 PM) on a Friday night and we were seated immediately. The waiting area is quite spacious, and the overall vibe was modern. We ordered a bunch of items off the happy hour menu: sushi taco, edamame, cucumber salad, plum wine, spicy crunchy kani roll, salmon avocado roll, yellowtail roll, eel and cucumber roll, and shrimp tempura roll. We also got a miso soup. Overall, the food was quite delicious for its value. There were three sushi tacos with different types of fish. The small bowl of edamame (for $1!) was great for snacking. The cucumbers in the cucumber salad were crunchy and drizzled with dressing that resembled sesame and peanut dressing. Each of the rolls came with four pieces which is a fair amount for $6 in New York. My favorite was the yellowtail roll and my boyfriend's was the salmon and avocado roll. The miso soup was warm and delicious on a cold winter day. I think the restaurant falls short on service. I was not very impressed by the happy hour menu that had soy sauce previously spilt on it previously. It was dried by the time I got the menu, but I think that it would be better if they had recycled it. Our soy sauce jar only had a couple drops left and there were no servers in sight to ask for more (or when they were around, they were focused on their task and couldn't see us trying to get their attention). I would say that Mikado does an amazing happy hour with great value. Perhaps in the future, I'd revisit this restaurant to try out their lunch and dinner menu. read more

They have an amazing happy hour! The sushi rolls are only $6 and even though they come in 4 pieces, each piece is fairly big. We got the yellowtail roll, spicy tuna crunchy roll, spicy salmon crunchy roll, salmon avocado roll, shrimp tempura roll, tuna roll, salmon roll and the shrimp shumai. They were all very good!! My favorite was the spicy salmon crunchy roll. We also got some sake to share. We got our food pretty quickly. The restaurant was clean and nicely decorated. Totally worth it! read more
