    Super simple. Quick cheap handrolls with decent flavors. Staff are chill and the line goes quickly. Not a ton of seating, really just the window nook, but it's great on the go food.

    Pleasantly surprised how good these rolls are! Very thick and good price. This location had a constant stream of customers when I went, so they must not be sitting out too long. I appreciate the spicy rolls actually having a little kick in them as well.

    I grabbed sushi rolls from here. The deal is pretty good, you get 3 rolls for $12. I really recommend the pineapple chicken roll. It was really delicious and the pineapple really complemented it. This is a great on the go snack or meal.

    Amazing spot for a quick, affordable meal near Washington Square Park in the West Village! You get 3 rolls for $12, and they offer monthly specials. This month, I tried the Firecracker roll (an extra $1), which had shrimp tempura and spicy tuna. I also got two of the regular options--tempura shrimp and spicy tuna rolls. As always, they were delicious and perfect for a grab-and-go meal, especially if you're in a hurry. The rolls come with cute fish-shaped soy sauce packets, plus ginger and wasabi. The only thing I wish they had was a few small tables outside, but given the grab-and-go style, it's understandable. These rolls are gluten-free and the quality is amazing for the price, especially in Manhattan. Definitely recommend checking this place out!

    Tiny Australian sushi takeaway spot with tasty maki rolls and cute fish soy sauce dispensers! I got a pack of 3 for $12 and tried the salmon, spicy tuna, and shrimp tempura. All were tasty! Service is friendly and fast. Overall a nice quick grab-and-go option in west village if you're wanting sushi.

    Such a quick, on the go, and affordable meal. I got shrimp, spicy tuna, and crab. The little mini fish shaped soy sauces were the cherry on top for me! Tasted fresh. Service was very fast, no lines, nice employees.

    Delicious Australian sushi! Quick, cheap, and tasty. 3 rolls for 12$ is pretty hard to beat! Tried the salmon roll, spicy tuna, and the shrimp tempura rolls! My favorite was the spicy tuna, followed by the salmon roll. Tempura was a bit soggy from sitting in the rice, but I was kind of expecting this. Flavor-wise still good. I love the little fish soy sauce squeeze bottles-- so cute! Will definitely be returning!

    This was one of the highlights of our trip to NYC. This place combines such amazing flavor at a very reasonable cost and with friendly service. We got a wide variety of hand rolls including spicy tuna, spicy shrimp, and sunshine. All of them were standout and I don't think you could make a bad selection here. Their spicy mayo dip was also excellent with each roll. I highly recommend trying this place out.

    So fun that there is an Australian sushi place in NYC! I love Japanese sushi but I admit that it's easier to eat sushi rolls when it's not cut. The 3 rolls for $12 is a decent price. While the quality of the fish is just okay, it's a quick and cheap spot when you need a light meal. They also give you these cute soy sauce fish bottles. The shop is really small, not really any place to eat inside, so be prepared to takeaway.

    I really love this Australian hand roll place all the rolls they have are really tasty and you can get three for $12. My favorite are the miso eggplant and the spicy salmon. The service is extremely friendly all Australian and as for the ambience it's a small takeaway place, so great to grab on the good.

The atmosphere here was a bit more lively and crowded compared to the more relaxed vibe of the UWS spot. I enjoyed my meal even more this time around. I started with the beet salad, which was delicious and offered great value given the generous portion size. it featured sliced beets, arugula, goat cheese, and walnuts. I also had my eye on the hijiki soybean salad--which is a bit smaller and reportedly homemade--so I may try that next time, along with the warm mushroom salad which looked very tasty. The edamame was standard but served as a nice starter. For my main rolls, I chose the salmon avocado and the yellowtail scallion. Both were very fresh and definitely worth ordering again. The salmon avocado roll had a nice touch of sesame seeds on the rice, while the yellowtail scallion was prepared with the seaweed on the outside. My boyfriend's sushi entree looked excellent, so I am considering that or the sushi-sashimi combo for my next visit. The entrees provide a substantial amount of food, and I especially appreciate that they allow you to choose which roll comes with your meal.

To be honest, I was getting a little nauseated after 5 pieces, haha~ They were definitely delicious but I'd probably just eat 3 or 4 pieces and share with a friend! It was easy to text the number on the website and coordinate a pickup time, and the staff was friendly when I arrived. The restaurant is a little hard to find as the windows are blinded and the sign is a piece of paper on the door.

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!

Went tonight and the sushi was legitimately fresh, like actually fresh, not Midtown-lunch-counter fresh. Yellowtail carpaccio and the salmon tataki were the standouts, clean fish, no fridge taste. This is izakaya food though, so order like it: geso kara, aged tofu, gyoza, repeat. Frozen beer comes with that slushie foam cap they do in Tokyo and it keeps the pint cold to the last sip, which matters when the room is this warm and packed. Service is fast and a little chaotic.

Each item was good, we all had a different favorite. The Tuna Crispy Rice was just the right amount of salty that paired well with the texture. The Kimchi Creamy Udon was also flavorful without being too heavy. The Yellowtail Carpaccio was bright and light, fish was neutral tasting. The Okonomiyaki was also good and very hot---we loved to dip pieces in the kimchi cream sauce! Overall we had a great time!

Do of course I use Yelp to find something that catches my eye close by where we need to be. I found umami Sushi. We usually can't go wrong with Japanese food or sushi. We had no problems finding the place. The description said it was a small restaurant and as we entered the dining area was very small. Our hotel room was probably bigger. That doesn't bother me especially if we get there, there tables for us to sit comfortably. I also trust my judgment when I find a place that seems to be popular by the locals. The restaurant was empty when we arrived. We were the only ones there, but for some reason we bring good vibes to the places we eat because not too long after we placed our order, people started coming in, to the point that the small dining room was packed. I love Omakase style Service and what we ordered was a sashimi/sushi platter for three and two special rolls. I thought I got to choose the rolls but even that was chefs choice. I was just a bit worried that they would give us the cheap rolls like spicy tuna or California roll. The platter came out and it was beautifully prepared with a piece of sashimi for each of us and the rolls the chefs chose, ended up being two of my favorite rolls. The types of fish they selected were also great quality fish. We were lucky to have placed our order before the crowd came in our we might have had to wait a while because how they prepared it would have taken some time. The service was just right. Because they got busy right away, the waitress was forced to attend to everyone and couldn't really socialize with us. In fact when we finished our platter we were debating what we wanted for dessert but the waitress didn't even ask us and instead she just brought us the bill, so we said to ourselves, "I guess we're not having dessert here." So we paid the bill and gave an opportunity for someone else to take our table.
