    3 Roll DINNER SPECIAL
    Tamara L.

    This place is truly my favorite to order in from! Their 3 roll dinner special is a lot of food and it is all yummy!

    Nigiri: Eel, White Tuna, Salmon Rolls: Salmon Skin Roll, Snow Crab Avocado Roll
    Ryan H.

    Try: AYCE Lunch ($20 from 11am - 3:30pm) with a Japanese Beer (1/2 off)! Why: Great deal for sushi and beer! I ordered 4 rolls and 7 pieces of nigiri. Rolls included: Tuna Avocado, Salmon Avocado, Salmon Skin, and Snow Crab Avocado. The Salmon rolls were my favorite but all four were delicious. Each roll came with 6 pieces and they were not shy on the fish and avocado. They also did over use rice, which is a big plus! Nigiri included: Tuna, White Tuna, Salmon, Eel, and Tofu. My favorite was Eel and Salmon. The rice did fall apart using my chopsticks but not a big deal. Lastly, I ordered a Sapporo Light to wash down my sushi, and didn't know it was happy hour price - 1/2 off and only $3! Notes: I had a late lunch and went at 2:30pm on a Friday. There were two other customers. I noticed a B health score but everything seemed clean and sanitary. Great service from the waitress and she was attentive. I would like to return to try some more rolls and also sake!

    Door dash special $33 - 3 special rolls, 2 nigiri, 1 app of your choice
    Stephanie C.

    Pretty solid meal! I ordered through doordash - for about $32, we get 3 special rolls of your choice, 2 nigiri and 1 appetizer. The fish were pretty fresh, everything tasted fine to me. Had no complaints especially for the price we get!

    Spicy tuna roll

    Subpar sushi. Ratio of rice to filling was completely off. Unfortunately fish did not taste fresh and the spicy tuna looked as though they added red food coloring

    Our experience at Sushi Para was good! Came in a little after dinnertime on a Friday night and scored the second to last two-top available. The dining room was pretty small, so I'm not surprised if there's usually a wait. We ordered pretty much immediately and chose an array of starters and rolls. The standouts were definitely the ika yaki (grilled squid) and anything with shrimp tempura. A lot of the AYCE menu had options with spicy tuna, which I don't hate, but it didn't leave much room for variety. The only roll I didn't love was the shrimp and mango roll, which had a lot of mango and not much shrimp. Overall good sushi at an unbeatable price. I think we'll be back.

    Not sure why there are so many bad reviews. I've been here twice. The sushi was solid both times. The downside is that sashimi and kani salads are not included with AYE. Our sushi came on a sushi boat. Loved the presentation! Service was spectacular. The ambiance is nothing special, but if you sit at one of the tables by the windows, you can take a look at third ave. This is a small, but nice sushi place. You can bring your own wine, but a corking fee applies.

    "Takoyaki" and Squid Appetizer
    Vanessa W.

    The restaurant's menu looked good, but the food was subpar and the service was even worse. We sat around for a long time before the *delivery guy* came and took our order. Our server both forgot items we ordered and brought us items we didn't order, all after having to be flagged down several times, even though there were only 2 other parties seated in the entire restaurant. The items we did get didn't taste very fresh and some you could tell were frozen. The takoyaki shouldn't even be called takoyaki. The rolls and sushi were not well put together and easily fell apart. One of the best thing we had was the squid appetizer, but that does not make the experience worthwhile.

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.

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!

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.
