Easily became one of my favorite Japanese restaurants in the states. I eat food all over and I would say this was some of the freshest sushi I ever had. Came for the lunch specials and the portions were perfect. The sweet and sour chicken was fried perfectly and the sauce was amazing!! read more

a sushi happy hour sounds suspect off rip, but when done right...it's done so right - there are about 10 locations of Mikado so it was only right to try one of them out for their 3:30-6:30 daily HH. - we were able to snag a table easily walking in around 5:30. we started with the $1 edamame. not a huge serving but perfect to split between 2 & ideally salted. also...$1 hello - the $6 sushi rolls are only 4 pieces a serving but each piece is plump. the spicy crunchy tuna was 90% fish, 10% rice. the tuna was chopped to a mush and mixed with crunchy pieces and spicy mayo. the texture was ideal, the mayo did not drown out the fish, & it was genuinely a bit spicy - the $5 shrimp shumai was a plate of mini mini warm plump shumai. like the sushi, the wrapping was thin & the focus was the filling, making this actually filling. the sauce was a very watery sweet dipping sauce that was hard to absorb into the shumai but was a nice addition. - service is REALLY fast & distant. good spot to quickly get your fill for cheappppp read more

Lovely atmosphere. We had the lunch special for $20. The entree was miso cod and vegetables. It was So fresh and clean tasting. It comes with your choice of a roll of sushi. We chose shrimp tempura. The seaweed was a tad chewy. I've had sushi here about 4 other occasions and the seaweed was good then, Lunch also came with miso soup or salad and a bowl of rice! We will be back. read more

I came to Mikado for their happy hour menu. I got the sushi tacos and a few of their rolls to try. It wasn't the best sushi I've ever had, but for the price it was decent. If you get the sushi tacos (which has spicy tuna inside), I wouldn't get the spicy tuna roll unless you really love spicy tuna. The food came out quickly, so it was perfect for a quick bite. read more

I was reading this place was a chain and I must say that's I pretty impressive. I'm not a big chain fan however, today I went in for happy hour and the price was right. The roles were going for extremely reasonable price prices of six dollars one might say it was only four pieces however it was very filling. Fish was very fresh my tuna /avocado roll and yellowtail scallion were delicious. Other dishes that I shared the fish was absolutely wonderful , Tasted very good read more

Love this spot! I got their $32 bento box and so worth it in my opinion. Even if you just get rolls it's like $7-$8 a roll and then they have some more elaborate ones for a little more. They also have hand rolls! Dessert was amazing, typically not tempted the yuzu cheesecake sounded too good. The rolls are huge and the chicken was one of the best, simple not too sweet or greasy and quality chicken!! Look at the chicken to rice ratio... okay that's all! read more

I've eaten at Mikado numerous times- consistent and fresh maki rolls. Today I went for happy hour- $1 edamame, $6 sushi rolls (4 pieces each) and vegetable gyoza. The shrimp tempura is okay- heavy batter to shrimp ratio. However, the salmon avocado, tuna and salmon portions are have rice to filling ratio and are really good. I'll be back again. P.S. The cocktails are $7.00 during happy hour. My favorite is the Lychee Martini. The mango passion fruit margarita you can tell the tequila is...well but it will get the job done, aha! read more

Their sushi + roll lunch special was worth it and shocked me. The fish and garnishes paired so well and each bite was so satisfying and filled a craving I didn't even know I had. The tuna scallion roll was also PACKED with fish -- perfect ratio. We also shared a chicken karaage don which was pretty good, but I've had better elsewhere. Still solid though. The restaurant is small and better for groups of 2-4, and you'll be pretty close to the next table. read more

We came here for lunch and it is definitely great value! I saw there was a happy hour menu too and the prices for that looked very reasonable too! I got the sweet and spicy chicken don that had rice cakes and came with the choice of miso soup or salad (I chose salad). It looked small when it first arrived but it is actually a lot of food. Service was good despite it being a busy spot and the ambiance is nice and lowkey. read more

I frequent this place for takeout and it's delicious! They have great deals to get a few maki rolls and their takeout packaging is super convenient for eating out. highly recommend the spicy crab maki roll as it's delicious. I also love getting the sashimi/sushi combo, as I think it's a great deal for the amount of fish you get. read more

3.5/5 I walk by this place all the time but came here with my brother during lunch! I was surprised by how fast food came out and how packed this place was. Almost every single table was full by the time we ordered. We did come during lunch rush so they weren't able to fill our waters or teas up that frequently. Service was great! Fifi was super nice and gave us great recs. What we ordered: - unagi bowl: this was super yummy and my favorite thing we shared. Eel was soft but the skin wasn't crispy. It came with miso soup and salad - 3 rolls (spicy tuna, spicy salmon, spicy yellowtail): it didn't come with that many pieces despite it being 3 rolls. I also couldn't tell the difference between them if I'm being honest. - bento box: we got chicken teriyaki and spicy tuna hand roll. This is not a bento box in my opinion because it was just a plate of chicken teriyaki. I would pass on ordering any of the bento boxes. The hand roll was so good! The chicken was slightly fried and I've never had it like that before. - red bean ice cream Overall, pretty good lunch deal with swift and efficient service! read more

I've discovered this place on Valentine's Day and I love it so much. I've never been in person but I have ordered at least three times. I always get the shrimp tempura roll and then I try to vary with everything else. It always tastes fresh, the portions are generous but the rice is not overwhelming. I love that they also give a little salmon "salad" on a side lol. read more

food was fresh - wish they put handrolls in the togo box. lunch special is a pretty good deal - 2 rolls for 13, 3 for 17, and 4 for 20 and the rolls are fairly large. I really enjoyed the salmon / spicy yellowtail / spicy crab, found the yellowtail jalapeño and spicy tuna a bit too fishy! read more

It can be tough to find good food at reasonable, affordable prices in the area. Do not sleep on Mikado, their eel rice bowl surpassed my expectations especially for a lunch special deal. Came with a miso soup or salad, devoured the soup the second I could get my hands on it. The garnishes were perfect additions to the plate, creating a well balanced meal. Service was quick, precise, and comforting throughout the experience. Will be coming back! read more

Mikado - Eel rice bowl - Sushi Bars Near Me - New York, New York

This is one of a handful of locations of this miniature OK sushi chain. A good while ago, I had an alright meal at their Brooklyn location, ordering a rather terrible spicy crab handroll (seaweed wasn't crunchy and it was a poor fake kani) along with an alright unagi don/eel over rice. It wasn't my favorite meal, but as per usual, if I didn't love a place and it just opened, I didn't leave a low-star review. Regarding this very popular location, I have been for lunch a handful of times now, getting takeout once and eating in once. The first time I got three CYO rolls to go for $17, which included spicy tuna, salmon, and yellowtail scallion. It was also supposed to come with a miso soup, but it wasn't there. They were packed, however, and there were a ton of people coming in for delivery, so I can understand them missing something, even if I was annoyed. The packaging is nice, with three small containers of wasabi, gari (sushi ginger,) and shoyu, which I didn't bother with, as I have better-quality sauces at home from Katagiri nearby. The rolls were a little bit different than other spots, with four larger pieces instead of the usual six, which I didn't mind. In terms of the fish, the spicy tuna was the weakest, as I really couldn't tell what it was as it was chopped so finely, so I guess skip the spicy rolls here, just like the other location. The salmon was a bit above average, and the yellowtail was easily the best of the bunch, with a nice buttery texture. It reminded me of another semi-fancy alright sushi chain, Bondi, which is also a bit pricey for the quality. The second time, I had a better lunch inside, as it wasn't too crowded and the service was friendly. I ordered the Salmon Ikura Don for $17, which came with fresh salmon, ikura, and picked. I'm not exactly sure why the end of the menu description is pickled, but there were some pieces of takuan/pickled daikon at the bottom, which solves that, well, pickle. The salmon was chopped similarly to bari chirashi and was again of pretty good quality, with the daikon adding some sweetness, and the rice was alright. The ikura was fine with a nice pop of occasional saltiness. The dish also came with miso soup, and it was standard, but I was happy I got it. This was again fine. If this place were in a neighborhood with a distinct lack of sushi options, I would probably rate this place higher. However, I think the nearby Dai Hachi is a better deal overall for lunch, with more consistent rolls and definitely better spicy rolls. They also haven't messed up any take-out orders, and I've ordered from them numerous times before. In terms of dons, or rather, in this case, kaisendons, I would highly recommend Kaoru on 46th instead, which offers much higher-quality fish, larger slices of said fish, a better selection such as kanpachi and otherwise, proper sushi rice, a bigger portion for the price, and better-quality miso soup to boot. I might stop in here for happy hour, as that seems like a better deal, but otherwise, it's unlikely I'll stop in here again. read more

Jedi mind tricks in full effect -- this box looks big but it's all smoke and mirrors. They split the sushi from the greens and edamame like it's a bento box at Nobu, but don't be fooled. No ponzu offered, which honestly feels like a violation of basic rights. What's next, no freedom of speech? Silly garnishes, no miso soup, but fish quality isn't bad -- and nigiri size is actually decent. Tuna roll was mid, yellowtail roll barely had flavor. Honestly, it's edible but nothing I'd chase. Gave it a C on my TikTok channel @therawreport -- check the full review if you want the full breakdown. TL;DR: Decent fish, gimmicky packaging, no ponzu = mood ruined. read more

I came here for HH with 2 people and was able to be seated immediately. Seating wise, they have some tables for 2 and 4z The HH deals here are so good!! They have cocktails on their HH menu too but when we went, only 2 of their cocktails were available. For drinks: - mango passionfruit margarita: we saw them use some mixers and were nervous that it'd be way too sweet but it was great! Very tequila forward - lychee martini: very sweet but very refreshing For food: - sushi tacos: it has the spicy tuna filling as in the roll. For $5, I think this is a great deal - rolls: only 4 pieces but I thought the yellowtail was really good quality Overall, would definitely come here again! The service was great too. read more

It comes with all you could need - very sturdy chopstick, soy sauce, ginger and wasabi. read more

Mikado - Sushi Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Let's get one thing straight: Mikado is my favorite sushi spot of all time--a true hidden gem that balances quality, price, and good vibes like a seasoned sushi chef balances a razor-sharp knife. It's the kind of place you stumble into once, then quietly build your entire dining rotation around. The happy hour prices are reason enough to go (think: real food, not just "snack" sushi), but even outside happy hour, the menu is full of flavorful, well-portioned dishes that don't play games with your wallet. It's rare to find a sushi place where the food is excellent and you still have money left over for dessert--or more sake. Speaking of food: the dons are the unsung heroes here. I had the sweet and spicy chicken don, which came out as a beautifully stacked bowl of tender meat, rice, and a perfectly oozing egg like a glossy crown on top. Not only was it delicious--it was also massive. Like, had-to-pause-halfway massive. No skimping, no filler, just the good stuff. And can we talk about the decor? They didn't cut corners there either. It's stylish but cozy, the kind of ambiance that works equally well for a girls' night out, a chill date, or solo sushi therapy. You feel good being there--which is rare in a spot that's also this affordable. The service seals the deal. Warm, patient, and genuinely attentive--even when we got a little indecisive (okay, a lot indecisive), they rolled with the changes and made sure we felt good about our picks. No side-eyes, no rush, just good energy all around. In short: Mikado is that perfect trifecta of amazing food, affordable drinks, and great vibes. It's the kind of place you want to keep to yourself--but you know you have to share the love. And honestly? It deserves every bit of it. read more

I was really craving sushi and came across this spot near work. After researching (for two days) I didn't realize how popular Mikado was! Multiple locations throughout the city and so many reviews! I had to give it a shot for lunch today. I'm glad that I did because it was super filling, fresh, and each piece was the perfect bite. Even though the uni wagyu was more expensive than the rest, it seemed like they skimped out on the uni but you get what you paid for. Will definitely order again and try other maki rolls from here :) read more

Food was good, as always. Took off a point because I was told you can't have leftovers. I came in to eat randomly not knowing it was happy hour as I come for dinner sometimes. My waiter told me at the end I can't take leftovers in the future. I ordered two rolls. And I consumed 5/8 of the pieces before I left. The older Caucasian lady next to me also had leftovers and they said nothing to her.... Just thought I should note this as it felt off to me. read more

The restaurant itself is clean and modern. It is not a large space. Parties of 2 to 4 are ideal. The bathroom is camouflaged, and is across from the bar. We came during lunch and the take out scene was all the rage. They had mountains of pink take out boxes ready to take their maiden voyage. Little thought was given to eat-in clients lining up at the door. We each ordered the lunch set ( 8 nigiri with a tuna roll or a hand roll, comes with soup or salad at $22). As I ate my pieces, I was quite hungry. I thought, "This is probably 3 stars." But as my ravenous appetite quieted, I realized it was more of a 2 star place. The rice was hard, it got harder and harder as the meal progressed. It was cold and hard. It lacked the subtle vinegar that I am used to and then it became apparent to me that this was not sushi rice. It was just rice. That made the meal less and less appealing. The salmon was the best piece. The yellowtail pieces were sad and bland. The tuna reminded me of red construction paper that faded in the sun, color bleeding out. It tasted as such. I am confused by the great reviews. I will not return. read more

Delivery so can't speak to service or ambiance. But the food was quite good. Feels like it's rare these days to get a good amount of fish in one's sushi as restaurants look for ways to cut cost but not Mikado. The volume of fish was great and it wasn't over-burdened with rice. The fish was all quite good quality. Nothing perfectly melt-in-your-mouth, but all good quality and consistent across different types of fish too. I would definitely order Mikado again and would try in person too! read more

Gotta say this is one of the best value happy hours I've been to. Rolls are okay but fresh and cheap. The lychee cocktail was delicious!

Unassuming from the outside yet polished and a fun atmosphere on the inside. We enjoyed the premium set we had, which was actually pretty filling on its own and it was cost effective! The service was great and everything was delivered on time. My only gripe is that they offered what you can kind of think of as a "bribe": for a five star Google review, you could get a free drink. It's not the worst thing a restaurant has ever done to game this system, but it does feel a bit wrong and I think it matters if we are expected to trust rating systems. read more
