    Mango tango roll (left), Philadelphia roll (right)
    Cheryl P.

    I think I just found my new favorite casual sushi spot around the Forest Hills neighborhood! As someone with a severe gluten allergy, I was really excited to try out this place because I saw a lot of reviews online praising for the way the staff members handle food allergies. I went in right around opening time (noon) on the weekend - the outside is a bit unassuming and partially covered by awning but the inside was brightly lit and the lady at the register (I wish I asked for her name) was incredibly warm and welcoming. She was super enthusiastic about helping me identify which rolls would be safe for me to have. They also have a grab-and-go section where certain popular rolls and sides have already been prepped, but as long as you're willing to wait, the chefs are more than happy to make a fresh batch of a specific roll, even if there are already packed portions of the same exact roll in the grab-and-go section. I thought this was a really thoughtful approach to appeasing all customers. I ended up going with a Philadelphia roll and a Mango Tango specialty roll, which contained a combination of salmon and tuna, mango, avocado, and cucumbers. The ingredients were very fresh and I think the prices are quite reasonable. Without even asking, I was given gluten-free tamari sauce instead of normal soy sauce. The combination of the restaurant's extensive menu and how kind the staff were made this a really wonderful experience - I was very satisfied with my order and definitely see myself coming back again and again whenever I have a sushi craving. The only downside is that this is really more so a grab-and-go spot in general, as there were only two small tables in the entire store. As a heads up, they also prefer to take cash instead of card.

    Octopus shrimp roll
    Jennifer O.

    The octopus shrimp roll was fishy (yes I know it's seafood but it shouldn't taste fishy or smell fishy) if u understand what I'm saying. The sprint crab I didn't really like. It was crab with the sauce on top. The other places I go to it's crab mixed with the spicy sauce. Don't know if I'll be back to try anything else.

    6 Pieces Shrimp Shumai, Philadelphia Roll and TMI Roll
    Nicole M.

    This was my go-to sushi lunch spot when I worked in the area. A cozy place with pleasant employees and tasty food meant I was there all the time. It was so good, I even introduced my fella to sushi with this food and he became a regular! There are some grab and go basics, Cali roll, kani salad, that type of thing. But of course what you want are the fresh made rolls. I ordered shumai, a Philadelphia roll and a TMI roll. TMI is like a mash of all my favorite things, tempura, crunch, shrimp, eel sauce. Basic, but tasty. Definitely my spot for casual sushi in Forest Hills

    Lovely establishment. The staff is extremely friendly and you can tell as soon as you walk in. They welcome you with delightful smiles and they know their customers by name. You can tell that they appreciate their regulars. The sushi was very tasty. Be mindful that it will be difficult to dine in with a huge party because the space is small. It's more for small groups/takeout style. Overall great experience, I wish I lived nearby so that I can come here more often.

    Mix of rolls- highly recommend the "smokey shrimp roll" on the bottom right
    Najwa G.

    Reliable, reasonably priced, and quick- what's not to like? In this area, I would say that Sushi Time is easily the most reliable sushi spot and it's pretty solid. My favorite roll was easily the smokey salmon roll as it's the "best of both worlds" with smoked salmon and shrimp. All in all, it's hard to mess up here!

    Bling Bling Roll, and my mom got some kind of Spicy Tuna Roll.
    Laur L.

    A neighbourhood sushi spot from my childhood. They recently renovated their space. The sushi is very fresh and people are always going in and out the shop to pick up orders. I like to get their Bling Bling roll because it has the biggest variety of fish, more than a rainbow roll (I'm very indecisive). Kind of sad they don't have uni anymore but it be like that.

    I've been ordering from Sushi Time for 10 years! This little gem has been such a staple to the neighborhood, we are so grateful it's just a short walk away. Any time I'm craving some sushi, I just come right over. The owner and staff have consistently been friendly through the years, it really is one of those local businesses you feel proud to support! Love this place and will continue coming regularly!

    Alaskan Roll Spicy Salmon Roll
    Devashis R.

    Super friendly staff, fresh rolls, and great prices. There are only two tables for two people each, but a lot of people call ahead and order to go. You can also pickup already prepared rolls that they make throughout the day and display in the open cooler fridge.

    Thu H.

    I was so excited to finally try these guys out and was surprised when my spicy salmon rolls came with a pungent scallion taste. My friend like their avocado roll- but for my staple basic roll, I was quite disappointed in mine. The staff is super nice of course and I believe everyone when they say their rolls are fresh, I just need to order it again to truly get that experience... sans the scallion overload.

    Mushroom Roll and Spicy Veggie Crunchy Roll
    Suhani A.

    The sushi here is SOOO GOOD!! This place is every vegetarians dream come true! The sushi is so beyond good and there's so many amazing options; I will definitely keep coming back! The spicy veggie crunchy roll was definitely a highlight! This place is a must go to!

    Salmon avocado roll
    Sydney C.

    A small takeout sushi restaurant with a large menu. Friendly staff, pretty fast service. Fancy shrimp tempura roll contained avocado, celery, eel, and masago. Very tasty, but couldn't really appreciate the eel - just tasted like shrimp tempura with eels sauce. Eel avocado - nothing special, tasted as you would expect - in a good way. Spider crab roll - had carrots and celery, topped with masago and Japanese Mayo. Not the best spider crab I've had, but pretty good. Salmon avocado - fresh ingredients, what more can you ask for. Crab lovers roll - menu said contains real crab, but all I got was fake crab; maybe they prepared the wrong roll; it's okay if you enjoy the fake crab meat. Great take out if you're in the hood.

    The sushi garden for customers on the go!
    Andres A.

    If the lightning-fast service, consistency in quality and freshness, and cute ambience weren't enough to convince me that this was the best place to grab a sushi roll in Queens, the fact that I'm always served with smiles all around from staff that take an immense amount pride in their craft is the cherry on top for me. A neighborhood gem and a place I can always make time for. :)

Instead, I was served a cheeseburger with french fries, which was completely different from what I ordered. When I brought this to the staff's attention, the response was dismissive and argumentative, rather than focused on resolving the issue. Rather than escalate the situation, I chose to leave. Although I had already paid, I did not feel comfortable staying or continuing the conversation. This was especially disappointing because I have been a loyal customer for years, long before the new ownership. I used to visit frequently, and even now, I go out of my way, often 40 minutes, to come here when I am in Queens dropping off my kids. As someone who does not eat cheeseburgers, receiving that order was both frustrating and avoidable with basic attention to detail. I truly hope the new management takes steps to improve both service and communication moving forward. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I will not be returning. This is coming from a person that has been coming to this place for years. It's sad.
