    Outdoor dining
    Emily Y H.

    Moved away from this recently but had to pick up a package because I mailed it to the wrong address :( Soooo while I was in the area I decided to stop by Momo and grab early dinner, and I'm super glad I did. I went on a Wednesday around 4pm so it was not busy at all. I was able to grab a table of 4 to myself where I hung out and read after eating. It felt comfortable and not too close to others unless you are right by the door. For food, I ordered 1 order of spicy bombs and the mentaiko udon. I was a bit hesitant at first about the udon since it's a warm dish which didn't sound good for the summer, but after some thought and encouragement from the waiter I decided to go for it and also add extra ikura. The waiter mentioned you can add other items as well. Either way it was delicious!! If you like mentaiko or ikura, the udon is for you! Overall I definitely enjoyed eating here alone or with friends. I'm happy their food is delicious and people can still support them!

    Great quality sushi and a cool relaxed vibe. I loved their take on miso soup with added veggies to make it heartier. It was fun trying their sushi bombs with the crunchy texture. I think they excel in their hand rolls so don't leave without trying these delights!

    One of my favorite sushi places in Brooklyn. The place is very small and cozy inside, but I'm ordering pick up. All the time that I've been there the staff was friendly and sushi were fresh. My favorite is party bomb and salmon guacamole. The only thing is the way to get there sometimes isn't that good if you're walking from Williamsburg.

    Nice service, interesting layout of the place, and ok food. Waitress was lovely and very attentive. The layout was cool since it's 3 large picnic tables to share with others - cool concept for having dinner with a laaaarge group. The bombs (right of pic) were very good in my opinion. The sushi was also good but I prefer the bombs better. Will def come back if i ever wasn't to go out for a quick bite.

    It's a good random pick in Brooklyn. Hipster cool that turned out satisfying despite its obvious departure from traditional Japanese. Standouts are the karaage, pork belly and the artsy looking gyoza. The green tea is very rich and good. Momo Sushi Shack, Bushwick, Brooklyn

    Party Bomb
    Heather C.

    I've been here twice now, and the two things I suggest the most would be to dine in and to order the sushi bombs. I went a few months back in search of a go-to, affordable sushi spot and was feeling hopeful. Though not traditional, the sushi bombs were fun and added a bit of flavor with each "topping" of the fish. The most recent time, I ordered to very friendly phone service! I got the una ten and philli rolls, excited to sample their vegan cream cheese. I'm not a huge fan of fusion sushi and their maki came off as that. The takeout wasn't as fresh and delicious, and the fish was a bit skimpy on the maki. The portion was disappointing at 6 pieces per roll, which explains the good price. Overall, it's a cute spot but I think I'll shop around for the best value sushi.

    Not sure why Momo has so many high reviews, the food was average at best. Uni Pasta: Good, but after a few bites extremely heavy and unbearable to finish it. Sushi: Not super fresh or high quality. Chicken Karage: The exterior was a bit too crunchy. I've had chicken karage at some places that was more moist and juicy.

    The atmosphere here is a bit dim but the overall experience is amazing. They didn't have any name at the entrance so had a hard time conforming the location. We tried sushi Bomb, hand-rolls, sushi and sake. The portion size is small so you need to order multiple entree. The price here is pretty reasonable so you will be fine even with two entree. SAKE WAS AMAZING!! I was with a few friends and it was a great location to eat, drink and laugh.

    I found this sushi spot courtesy of Yelp, and decided to make good use of my first weekend in Brooklyn to check it out! It was a little pricey, which is my only gripe. Our bill was $34 without tip and I felt like my appetite had barely been satiated, however, I cannot deny that the food was good. We ordered the Party Bomb plate, which is an assortment of sushi bombs, and also their gyoza. The sushi bombs are bite-sized, and even though the plate comes with 12 pieces total, it really is not that much. My favorite of the four types of bombs was the Spicy Mc Bomb. The kataifi went really well with the rest of the ingredients and was an added pop of sweetness and crunchiness that I really enjoyed! My least favorite was the Mc Low Bomb (the other tuna bomb), which was just too fishy for me. Also *SPOILER ALERT*, their special sauces are really just soy sauce with different amounts of wasabi mixed in. The awesome upcycled measuring spoon ladles led me to believe that the sauces were actually something unique...I was disappointed. I actually enjoyed the gyoza more than I enjoyed the sushi bombs, and I am so glad that the server recommended them. The gyoza were perfectly pan fried - crispy on the bottom but soft and chewy on the top. The filling was delicious, and it was served with both ponzu sauce and chili oil. I would definitely order this if I visit again. I found the restaurant a little too dark for dining - I could barely see three feet in front of my face. However, they keep it tidy, and I appreciated that they kept the restaurant quite toasty for a cold winter day.

    Interesting ambiance at this restaurant - it is very dark and has two very long tables with attached bench to eat cafeteria/community style. We had a dinner reservation through open table and were able to secure a "prime" end portion of the long table. Service was very kind and welcoming. All the sushi that I tried was delicious - for dinner prices, they were good... and apparently they have lunch specials 7 days a week?? NICE! Was very impressed with the sushi, hot foods were good but prob won't be my focus next time. Prices were super reasonable for dinner, and would be a total steal for lunch!

    Good spot for well prepared sushi in east Williamsburg it's right across from Syndicated so this could be part 1 of a dinner/movie combo. Pro Tip: They somehow manage to make communal seating intimate but get there early if you want a seat at either end of the benches.

    Interior. Very Bushwick.

    Located in Bushwick right next to Roberta's, this place is hipster central. Even so, the food is all excellent and the prices are surprisingly reasonable, making it well worth the trip here and sitting at the communal tables. From the moment you enter, it feels super Brooklyn. It's very dark with candlelit tables, and almost all 20-something girls with tattoos and daddy issues (I know they filmed some scenes of Girls at Roberta's, and wouldn't be surprised if they filmed here too). You are also greeted by Phillip, the jolly Grizzly Adams-looking dude who I think is the owner, and is one of the best things about this place. He is really friendly and welcoming and makes for a memorable and enjoyable experience. He came over throughout, cracking jokes and making sure we were taken care of, and it came across in a nice way, and not annoying as it sometimes can be. Most importantly though, all the food was great: - Rice Croquettes ($7 for 5) Amazing way to start the meal. Filled with rice and cheese, these were really delicious, and not as overwhelming as they sound. They were lightly fried and went down easily. - Party Bomb ($19) This is one of the things everybody gets here, and you should do so too. This is just a sampler of all of the different varieties of "sushi bombs" they have, which are basically just nigiri in a spherical shape. They are all really good, especially the eel one of course, and it's an excellent value, at 12 pieces for just $19. This is the must order here. - Hamachi Roll ($7) and Dragon Roll ($12) We also tried some of the typical rolls, which were pretty good, but nothing special. I would stick to the other more unique stuff here, but these were tasty nonetheless. - Oxtail Udon ($16) This was one of the specials, and every table seemed to have it, which makes sense since it was really excellent. There was a ton of very soft and delicious oxtail and some springy, tasty udon noodles. If this is on offer, it's definitely a good pick. - Chicken Karaage ($9) This came out after we were done with all of the other food, as they fry it fresh and it takes a bit longer. It's definitely worth the wait - it was some of the juiciest karaage I've tried, and was so hot I repeatedly burned my mouth because I just couldn't wait. This place is really great and it seems to always be pretty packed (as Phillip informed us, we were lucky to get in with no wait). The food is definitely excellent, though not as good as some other sushi joints, but it's really the great service and fun atmosphere that really elevate this place to a 5-starrer. It's a great reason to come to Bushwick other than Roberta's, and I would definitely come back (with plenty of cash, as it's cash only).

    Some of the freshest fish I've had in my life. Way better than other sushi places in Brooklyn or Manhattan. A true hidden gem.

Everything was delicious, hot and it was delivered quickly. The prices are up there however the food is worth it . I ordered a ramen bowl with the corn ribs.

It's been open for a few years, so clearly it has a good enough formula to keep the neighborhood happy. I have been here once before, but returned last week after dining several meals at Tomoni in Jackson Heights. Apparently, the owners are friends. Nonetheless, I needed to make the comparison. After my first few bites of their Tora Don and Chirashi Don, it was clear that this restaurant has the better quality seafood. Each slice of sashimi had vibrant colors, clean taste, and the proper texture. Tomoni is not bad, but fall slightly short of this caliber. With that said, there is an even farther gap between their rice quality. Though Tora is very good, Tomoni produces nearly perfect texture and acidity for my taste buds. Other than the best omakase restaurants in NYC, Tomoni shines as one of the best versions of sushi rice in the five boroughs. Service is good and space is cute. If I have a craving for some decent Japanese food, I would drive 20 minutes here for a meal anytime.

    While wandering through Bed-Stuy on a weekday evening, my husband and I decided to try out this new…read moresushi spot. It wasn't terrible--but I had a lot of mixed feelings. Food: 3/5 I'm a huge sushi fan, so I was excited when I saw a deluxe sashimi set on the menu. Unfortunately, it didn't quite hit the mark. The scallop was thinly sliced and lacked the rich texture I was hoping for. The salmon and other cuts were decent, but short and oddly shaped--chunky yet small, which made the whole presentation feel a bit off for something labeled deluxe. We also tried to branch out and ordered the short rib entree. For $21, it was shockingly small--definitely a single-person portion, not sharable. I added extra ikura to a salmon donburi bowl for $2, but it was barely a teaspoon's worth--just enough to say it was there. Oddly, the salmon slices in that bowl were thinner than the sashimi we had just eaten, and overall, it left me still hungry even after sharing a maki roll. Lastly, my husband ordered a green salad, which somehow took the entire meal service to arrive. When it finally came, it was just plain romaine, cucumbers, radish, and dressing. For a dinner that clocked in at over $150 (after tip), we definitely left underwhelmed. Service: 3/5 This part wasn't bad, just confusing. We were seated quickly, but the pacing of the meal was strange. Our seaweed salad and soups came out promptly, but the green salad came last, after the hot dishes and nearly after my husband finished eating. Also, a small thing--but when I'm paying $16 for four oysters, I want to know what kind they are. The menu just said "West Coast oysters," but our server couldn't tell us the variety or origin. Not a huge deal, but it added to a general lack of polish that didn't quite match the pricing. I don't think I'd return. For the price, there are better sushi options in Brooklyn with higher quality, better portions, and clearer service. Still, I appreciate new spots opening up in the neighborhood, and I'm always happy to try something new. Hopefully they refine the menu and service with time.

    Izakaya Tenzo is a welcome addition to the BedStuy food scene. They'd been on my radar for a while…read moreand we stopped in on a Saturday evening when we wanted dinner but not anything too heavy. This fit the bill exactly. We started with the salmon belly carpaccio which I'd say isn't really a carpaccio because the salmon isn't sliced as thinly as you'd expect. But! I mention that just to set expectations. Nomenclature aside, it's an excellent appetizer. Served in a truffle and ponzu sauce, the salmon is lightly seared which yields two different textures to the fish. It practically melts in your mouth. Highly recommend this dish. For my entree I went with the trio don, which is 6 pieces of sashimi served over your choice of plain or sushi rice (sushi rice for me). The fish was fresh and flavorful. The portion was perfect for me. My boyfriend ordered a yellowtail roll and enjoyed that as well. We also shared a carafe of the cold house sake. I'd definitely come back and try more items on the menu. It's great for sharing and trying new dishes. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the prices were very reasonable.
