I love how the flavors mix so well together, I felt like I was in heaven! the service was amazing, like the never left my water cup empty!!! (props to them) the ambiance inside was also super calm and vibey. overall, I had such an amazing time and I would love to go again soon

Came for takeout and got the Salmon Set which includes 8 huuuuge salmon nigiri for $30. You'll…read moredefinitely want to share this one. The slices aren't thin, delicate, and melt-in-your-mouth as one usually gets in a sit down; they are extra thick, and I had to really bite down on some of the pieces. The rice was nicely seasoned and was cooked well + portions are also big to match those thiccccc salmon slices. 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.

Everything we had here was spectacular. My favorite dishes were the Mazemen noodles, corn ribs, and…read moretuna uni rice. I am already wanting to go back. The cucumber salad was also very good and flavorful. karaage was just okay and can be skipped. The corn dessert was really cool and the ube tiramisu really had the yam flavor. Boz was our server and he was amazing! Super friendly and did such an amazing job guiding us through the menu. Very funny guy too. He really added good energy to our night. Overall would recommend this place. Lots of wow moments with the dishes. So many other things to try!! 10/10 would recommend

I'm always on the search for good katsu and was looking forward to trying this spot! This is a bit…read moreof a belated review, but I'm glad to see that the standout dishes from my winter visit are still featured on their summer menu. 3 of us shared a few orders of their tenderloin ($18) and pork loin ($20) katsu, eggplant agebitashi ($18), sabazushi ($22), truffle rice, and niku udon ($24). The katsu was very, very moist on the inside, with a crispy batter that was so light it was almost flavorless. I honestly couldn't really tell the difference between the tenderloin and pork loin. Overall the dish had a very light flavor and I added quite a bit of sauce and wasabi. Some of the less memorable dishes were the eggplant agebitashi and truffle rice. The eggplant agebitashi tasted like a cross between an eggplant parm and a bolognese. The truffle rice had a very strong truffle flavor that ended up overpowering everything else in the dish. I thought the slices of raw button mushrooms were a little strange. I really enjoyed the sabazushi. The pieces of mackerel were thick and carried a lot of that characteristic mackerel oily flavor, but the oiliness was cut by enough vinegar to balance everything out. The niku udon was also a surprise hit. The noodles were wide, flat, super slurpy, and the broth carried a deep umami flavor. Overall, I had a pretty solid experience here.

My coworker brought us to try Maki Kosaka and wow were we blown away! I am a huge fan of Temaki and…read morethis concept of having your temaki made and the diner can wrap it with nori seaweed was great. It keeps your nori crispy and the layers of filling and topping can really be marveled. I had the most popular set and it was amazing. I loved every pairing and want to try their other sets now.

Maki Kosaka presents itself as a hyper-simplistic yet refined sushi experience, not exactly like…read moreomakase but also not a traditional "order two to three rolls" restaurant. The dining area, a bar surrounding the sushi chefs who serve your food, is spotless, as are the bathrooms and tables surrounding the bar. I got the Grab Handroll set, which comes with five chef-selected fish combos and seaweed chips for you to build your own handroll. I was expecting to be underwhelmed by the amount of food -- $45 is relatively inexpensive for luxury NYC sushi -- but I left feeling satisfied with how much I ate (surprising for me as someone with a big appetite!). The service was warm and snappy, and as I mentioned above, the prices are modest for the experience and quality you get in return. I wholeheartedly recommend!

The ambiance was pretty lively with a lot of people talking and festive drinks. For the food, the kimchi cream udon was the best. Very creamy and a good balance of sweetness and tartness. Everything else was just alright. The tuna crispy rice had extremely crispy rice, the sushi wasn't amazing and tasted pretty average, and I wouldn't recommend the katsudon since it tasted pretty bland. The take me home drink was alright - I thought it would taste sweeter but I could still taste the alcohol pretty strongly.
