Delivery sushi and sashimi lunch = average quality & quantity today. Truth - I hate to be a complainer but I got to say how it is! *Price for the sushi sashimi lunch combo (see photo) was 17 dollars - not including tax or tip. It included a small miso soup. * Menu selections offered - Would have liked more menu options. Several sushi restaurants in the city offer a wider variety & selection under the lunch menu section; hamachi was not included in the sushi & sashimi lunch special. *Delivery - not great at all ! Took a long time, said delivered but no food arrived. The entire lunch order went missing - turned out it was dropped off at the wrong address (not sure why). Luckily I was able to use the app to locate the bag of food & it's cold as a refrigerator outside. They had a hibachi lunch option and I kind of wish I'd gone with that instead. Was expecting more based upon the five star reviews both on Yelp & Google. Could be better in person or dinner. I went with delivery to sample/ try out the food. Bay Ridge is far and this was a way to see if I want to commit to the time to travel there in person. I prefer in person but between the traffic, delays and general inefficiency getting around the city, it's a lot to ask - unless the food is amazingly good or incredibly inexpensive. read more

We wanted to give a new sushi place a try, and we decided to order through Uber Eats, and noticed this place had buy 1, get 1 free promos on their menu, so we decided why not. We ordered the Brooklyn roll for the B1G1, and their Volcano roll. The rolls were MASSIVE and you could tell these are definitely Americanized sushi rolls. The flavors were decent and there was a nice spicy kick in the Volcano roll that hit towards the end of a bite. I was nicely surprised with that! Sushi from here is average at best; not the worst I've ever had and it's definitely not the freshest either, sadly. Food was delivered promptly and their presentation was very nice. However, there is a lot of competition when it comes to sushi from Bay Ridge, and this is a safe place to order from for a sushi beginner I would say! read more

Establishment is beautiful yet casual and service was wonderful. There's one woman handling the front of the house and the dining room, and she did a beautiful job. The tea was delicious, as well. Food was 'Meh'. The Avocado crab salad - skimpy on the avocado (one beautiful, skinny line of avocado slices as a border to hold fields greens, topped with about 1/4cup of crab, shredded). The Beef Negimaki - waaaay over stuffed with scallions; so stuffed that it was all I tasted. The Sushi Rolls - some were okay, some were 'meh'. The bill was $70 - A lot considering we weren't thrilled. We don't plan on going back because it wasn't for us, but may be for someone else. read more

The food is consistently good and the staff are always very friendly and helpful. The decor is lovely. My grandson's baptism party was held at Shobu and everyone complemented how delicious the food was. read more

Love the Angry Chicken and the fish is always fresh and the service fast. Nice and quaint.

The food is fresh and tasty. I just don't like the chef's special sauce. The service is quick and polite. The ambiance is Asian chic.

I've been here a number of times and it's always a pleasure. Parking is horrendous so be advised to plan around that if you're driving in for your visit. That's also mainly the reason I seldom come here, but food is delicious, atmosphere is serene and servers are super nice! Today I tried their stir fried shrimp udon noodles, and the seasoning was so delicious! Shrimp was cooked perfectly! Dragon ball appetizer is a good size and came looking as delicious as it tasted. Their quality of food is consistent and well presented. The prices are highly competitive and lean towards the more expensive side in comparison but it's nothing outrageous and they certainly uphold their standards. I recommend stopping by if you're in the area! read more

always good food and calm environment. This is a place that was noted when walking around. The menu has options and plenty of options ranging from sushi to soups to even different variations of rice. For this case i got some sushi and the taste is always worth the wait especially for the special rolls. The normal rolls such as the tuna/salmon are always great to have as well. The fish is always fresh and you can just enjoy that flavor. Deff a place to come to when you want something savory. read more

The sushi rolls are super creative and fresh. I like that the rolls don't rely on crunch. A lot of fish, and after just three times there, they remembered my family and my order. They are so wonderful. read more

This place was always one of our go to is when we lived in Brooklyn. However, after the pandemic their prices continue to rise and the portions got smaller too bad. It's really was a great restaurant. read more

This place was alright.... Came in on a Monday afternoon. A little expensive but alright... (due to the tuna being $2.50 per each piece) We came for lunch and we were like the second table seated. Wasn't busy at all. So service was quick, nice and attentive. Place was clean and we enjoyed our nice quiet lunch. Would come again! read more

some of the best sushi i ever had the service and food were absolutely amazing. the ambiance was relaxing. the workers were on target . IT WAS GREAT! read more

Bay Ridge has a perennial favorite in Shobu... The servers recognized me and my lady upon our second visit even though it was months between visits... In Brooklyn that is some feat... The sake flows like water and attractive rolls are garnished in fried leeks and tobiko, not heavy mayo based sauces. I am impressed with the attentive service... The big three tuna, salmon and yellow tail are always bright and fresh. The only fault I have found here is that they are not as generous with the portions of fish as I would like. read more

This place is really great! They have outdoor seating as well, and like a lot of places, that is hard to tell unless you walk and I can see that they have a patio in the back. They are very friendly and the place is clean. I think this is kind of a Bayridge sushi staple. read more

What a hidden gem of a place! Went in for lunch on a Saturday with husband and our toddler. All the food was quick and delicious. The waitress was very friendly and accommodating. Our son simply adored her as she continued to be friendly and playful with him. We tried the shrimp tempura. Vegetable gyoza, fried rice and the amazing sushi rolls. read more

I ordered teriyaki chx rice instead sushi this time. It was really good except the rice was too hard. I recommend to try the miso soup, it's delicious. If you go there in a nice day, don't miss the backyard! Yes, they have a backyard dinning area. read more

This is my go-to when I am in the mood for Japanese cuisine! I usually stop in here on a whim while out running errands and I have a favorite table. The owners are very sweet and the service is excellent. I usually order the same thing, but I have heard how delicious many of the items on the menu are. The wine is very reasonably priced. Great people watching from their window. Thank you! read more

Ordered a sushi & shashimi lunch combo today and it was delicious! My first sushi joint since moving to Brooklyn a few months ago and especially since the pandemic I haven't really ate out. This satisfied all of my sushi cravings! read more

Shobu Sushi & Grill - Sashimi Sushi Lunch Sushi and Sashimi Lunch - Japanese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Came here on recommendation from Yelp. Based on our dinner this evening, I am expecting Shobu to be our new "go to place" for sushi in Bay Ridge. While it lacks the bar and late scene of Fushimi (which is nearly right across the street), Shobu delivered creative, high quality dishes at a very reasonable price. Last time I ate at Fushimi I was disappointed to find portions had shrunk and price had gone higher. Shobu delivers excellent , attentive, well timed service and really good food. My wife really enjoyed the Shobu Tortilla and "Sexy Beach". My triple sushi plate had nice size slices of the fish. Quality and value. read more

one of my favorite sushi spots, its right on my corner in bay ridge and the food is always fresh and delicious and they have some thai/curry options which are just as good. read more

I don't know how long this place has been here but it has been at least 7 years. That alone should let you know that it is pretty good since it withstood the test of time. As with all sushi places, the price can be a bit steep. However, I really had a hankering for sushi so planned to have a late lunch one day. I wandered in at about 3:45pm and was very pleasantly surprised to find that their lunch specials run until 4:00pm. For $11.50 (and of course, that price may change in the future but it likely won't jump too high), you can order three rolls and you also get a small salad or miso soup. Since not all rolls are designed for all pallets, this is an awesome way to experiment. One of the biggest downsides to this place is that it is closed on Tuesdays. This place is a good choice (especially during lunch). I give it my seal of approval. read more

Awesome local spot, great service, sushi sometimes comes loose, they need to better their sushi game a little bit.

Super good sushi. You can tell the rice is fresh and the fish is good quality. Noodles were okay. Lacked a bit of taste read more

We ordered delivery last night after clarifying which chefs special sauces have gluten (soy or eel sauce) and requesting those and the crunch (I still am not sure what this is made of!) on the side. We ordered Christmas and summer special rolls and a pad Thai with shrimp (which is not made with gluten traditionally). When they arrived the Christmas roll still had mayo sauce and a dark sauce on top, I called to clarify to which they told me they "fire the mayo" so I guess it's burnt bits? Anyways- I ate the rolls and they tasted fresh. The pad Thai was awful- it was sticky, dry and no longer hot and it was clear the shrimp and tofu were fried. Which is not how the dish is made, sautéed I would be fine, fried means cross contamination with gluten fried foods. I gave 2 stars bc the sushi was good but I am riddled with symptoms this morning meaning I had gluten, and not just in a small amount. Thanks Shobu, I really appreciate it! :-( read more

Ordered sushi for delivery from this spot and it was good!!! I had one of their special rolls, Hangry roll (i believe), and 2 other regular rolls: yellowtail with scallions roll and spicy salmon roll. Delivery was quick also. Would definitely like to dine here one day! read more

There was four tables. Two tables came after us and was being served with drinks and food. Waitress came and asked us what we wanted? Miss, there was no water or drinks while sitting there for a good fifteen minutes. Pretty much non-existence. -.- I don't understand where the good ratings are coming from. For the prices, I rather go to the sushi places on Bay Ridge. Better service, food, and quality. Pretty much my last time I'll be going there. read more

Geisha roll, naughty girl, and yummy roll!!!! Omg must try!!! Amazing!!! :) Everything on the menu looks sooo goood and we ordered 3 special rolls and were having foodgasms left and right! No joke! The sushi is just amazing, so fresh and the flavors are like no other. Can't find sushi like this in all of the 5 boroughs, not exaggerating. Can't wait until I go back and try moreeeeeee! And the lychee and calpico martinis were pretty yumm too! Sweet and not too strong and decently priced. I went back a second time to try their chicken teriyaki, mochi, and fried ice cream! Delectable! I'm hooked onto this place and will be coming back :D read more
