We went for dinner being residents in the area, I didn't know we had this nice sushi spot by our house and now we are contemplating the location and the food here! Our server really nice man and unfortunately I don't have his name and very funny too. The sushi and hibachi were delicious and freshly made! I highly suggest you try this place and make sure you get the same experience. Sat right away; we were 3 adults, very nice atmosphere overall. Outdoor dining available. read more

We came here for a friend's birthday celebration. We tried their hibachi and it was decently presented by the master. Food is just okay but fairly priced. The place is a bit outdated but what I loved about it is that they install a wonderful photo galley wall of all their guests celebrations. It was so pleasant to be appreciated on its simple way and a good reason to return ( to look up also where they posted your photo!). Staff is nice and very pleasant. By the way, they allowed to bring your own cake and they cut it for free. read more

It saddens me to say this is the second time ordering from here. I ordered today 8/11/2025 and I ordered 3 rolls lunch special this time not 2 rolls. However, I was eating it and something didn't taste right. As I looked at the eel rolls the avocado was so dark, so I opened one and then opened another one and they were dark not good to me. I don't eat avocados that look like that. Needless to say I won't eat there again. I called and spoke with Eric the manager and he sent me pictures of how his avocados came in a case from his supplier and I told him that should never have went out to anyone. He was very apologetic and sent my money back. I really enjoyed the first order. read more

The price really was on the higher end. Granted it was in Garden City. The fried stuff was a little dry. The udon was good.

I think this place is really great. It's been in Garden City for at least two decades and it's highly frequent by the locals which is a good sign in my opinion. We had a delicious hibachi steak and I must say the chicken fried rice was 10 out of 10. I think this is a great spot to try in a great neighborhood with great people. read more

Just had take out, big bill , poor food presentation , disappointing in what we received

Really love the food and environment here. Waiter helps a lot when dinning. Food is all delicate.

Excellent quality sushi, nice traditional atmosphere and attentive service that's also very kid friendly. We did the omakase which was fantastic, quite a wide variety of inventive dishes and presentations that change frequently. Will return! read more

Great sushi, great service and fair prices. Sushi is always fresh and delicious Would recommend.

Sushi Ya is a pretty solid sushi place tucked away in Nassau. It is conveniently right next to a Chip if you're feeling dessert after! My friend and I went and had the sushi + sashimi plate and it was the right amount of food- not too much and not too little. I've had better sashimi but it wasn't bad. What made the meal full circle IMHO were the strong and inexpensive drinks. I forgot exactly what I got it was something with passion fruit but it was absolutely delicious and definitely strong- it's a current trend in the city to skimp on the alcohol so nice to know that places in LI don't, at least not Sushi Ya haha. All in all, I would visit again if the opportunity arises. read more

Have always ordered takeout and had fantastic delivery service. Enjoyed the sushi I have gotten every time. Reasonable pricing and great rolls! read more

Ordered take out from here several times as it's one of the few sushi places we keep in rotation when we are craving sushi. The service is great as the food is always prepared quickly and packaged well. The rolls are delicious and very satisfying. My boyfriend's favorite of this order was the sushi ya roll and my favorite was the Eric-San roll but I requested it without eel and extra tuna. The beef fried rice was made well, not too oily and flavorful. The restaurant is in a perfect location right across from cold stone and chip city. Highly recommend! read more

More like Sushi Na. The sesame chicken was tougher than a cowboy steak. The vegetables were raw, not blanched. The fried rice for an extra $3 was bland and boring. Not worth it. The water even tasted stale like the cubes came out of a mold dispenser. The carpet was dirty and smelled . The servers were very nice but that's about it. read more

sushi Ya is the best sushi restaurant on Long Island. The fish is fresh and the owners Kelly and Erick are an absolute delight. The staff is courteous and attentive and the wines and beer selection is superb. Make sure you ask about the sake and Japanese whiskey selection as well. my favorite sushi cuts are the yellowtail and fatty tuna. The best rolls are the Aliana roll. the diamond roll and the spider roll. They also have the best miso soup in the universe. read more

Ordered a philly roll and spicy crunchy tuna roll and was not happy. The spicy crunchy tuna roll was just not it. The rice on the sushi was hard as if it was sushi from a super market or mall. Not happy maybe was just my food. read more

I ordered lunch delivery. The fish in my Chirashi was okay. The sushi rice was not a good quality. The roe was a little fishy as well as the miso soup. The salad was good. For $34 total, it wasnt worth it. The driver complained how far I was (17 minutes). read more

Service is great. Sushi is so fresh and delicious!! I highly recommend it. Eric always has something incredibly fresh and not your everyday sushi. The best sushi restaurant I have come upon on Long Island read more

Good sushi, usually order takeout, fast service, have to pay extra for spicy Mayo though, teriyaki salmon was good too.

Amazing! I finally found a great sushi place. The sushi is very fresh. I love how they deliver. I had them make a tray for my dinner party and all my guests were very impressed! Will continue to order from them. Thank you very much! read more

I usually love this place but FYI there menu online price is not the same price they charge my receipt before paying. They charge so much more it's actually shocking. I'm not sure if this is the regular prices in the restaurant or they haven't updated their online menu but they shouldn't be charging someone like this at this amount. In my photos that I have posted are highlighted items that I ordered, plus the receipt that they charge me for. My previous order a seafood udon - there menu online said it is $15 they charge me $26, I also ordered 2x spicy yellowtail for $6 each and they charged it for $16 each and a DJ roll which was $12 online and was charge for $18 my totally came out to be $60 + tax so $65.18 but still this is a wake up call. Never again. read more

Normally order for takeout, always super friendly on the phone and in person. Great service, always making sure you are updated on your order. Sushi rolls and food in general are always delicious and a great value. Restaurant is very clean and inviting, I hope to try their hibachi very soon. read more

Really disappointed with the takeout. The sushi didn't taste fresh at all--the fish seemed old and the quality just wasn't there. Definitely not what I expected and won't be ordering from here again. read more

Food selection is great! The decor is a little dated definitely needs some uplifting! However the atmosphere is very safe and welcoming. The service is very attentive and friendly. Great drinks! read more

Fast service, tasty food and cool outside set up with bubbles during Covid-19. No heaters that I noticed but it was a nice night. We stopped here for a quick dinner on Tuesday night and we were glad that we did. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. I recommend this place if you're looking for some good sushi and a cool date with your wife read more

So here's the deal. We were visiting my son who's a freshman at Hofstra and for family weekend they had some restaurants offering discounts. And these folks were one of them. So I made a reservation on the yelp app and when we got there they were not busy and our table was ready. Tables are low and there wasn't a lot of room. I am 6'6" and my two boys are both 6'2" so we were pretty squished. The menu is a bit weird a ton of choices but a lot are the same and repeated. They also had a lunch menu with more repeats. We order drinks and an app and then we waited. It was probably 10 minutes before we got drinks served. It seemed like a long time. Sure they were good when we got them and so was the app. So the food was really well done. They served us all a salad and a soup before our meals which were great. The dressing on the salad was absolutely delicious. My sushi was good not great like the pictures. My sons looked better. My daughter had the lunch ramen and she enjoyed it and my wife had some noodle and crispy shrimp dish that looked good. I'm the end I'm not sure if I'd go back there or not. Service is the most important aspect of eating out for me and there was a serious lack of it there. read more

Generally fine options and seems like your standard sushi. Nothing really "wowed" me, but a solid option for sure. Would go again, though. read more

Great, spacious location. Vast selection of fresh menu items. Great staff as well! In an area full of great restaurants, Sushi YA excels!

After a long morning of shopping, we were all hungry and craving sushi. Sushi Ya was close and had good reviews, so we ended up here and ended up happy. Service was friendly. It was a late lunch, and we were one of the only groups in the place, but not sure how busy the Village of Garden City gets for Saturday lunch. Sushi Ya had lunch specials, which is appreciated. Between four of us, we had the garlic edamame, mona rolls, sushi bento box lunch special, sushi and sashimi lunch special, and an order of tuna sushi. Everything was good and everyone liked everything. The sushi bento box is huge and your best bet. It comes with miso soup, salad, tempura, beef teriyaki, vegetables, shumai, three types of sushi, and rice. The tempura is perfectly crisp and was delicious. I had a piece of eggplant, which I don't usually see, so I was happy about that. I thought the sushi (tuna, white tuna, and salmon) was fresh and the cuts were big. My other favorite item was the edamame. Coated in garlic, it's quite addictive, and I highly recommend. There's a few other sushi spots near Sushi Ya, but I'm going back here if I return to the area read more

The sushi is still good, but, they got a new chef so some of the offerings have changed. My mom got the Spider Roll but she couldn't even taste the crab. Maybe they used imitation crab. read more

Stopped in here for dinner last night . The spot is very nice and the staff very welcoming .. we got the chef salad , monster roll ( so so good !) , spicy tuna roll , spicy salmon roll and the vegetable fried rice . Everything was tasty and fresh . I only have four stars because though our waiter was attentive he wasn't the friendliest.. but hey we all have our bad days right ? Anyhoo .. great , fresh sushi .. check 'em on out ! Definitely recommend 9/10 read more

I'm not a big Sushi guy. Chop up some fish into parts, here ya go! Dinner is served. I know its not that simple. When I ask people what makes them crave Sushi, they tell me about the grade of fish and they enjoy the different rolls. When i go out I just don't get a yen (see what I did there) for piece of cold fish. I do however get a craving every once in a while for a bento box with mixed items. I was gonna have soup after the movies but I figured lemme get my Sushi annual quota in at Sushi Ya. When I checked in, my Yelp buddy & I were playing around: Ya Ya, Ja Ja, Aye Oh?? What's with this name?? Does Ya mean in Japanese, exalted one and I just insulted the culture? Sorry. Speaking of, the Sushi Chef tells me the beer I ordered comes straight from Japan. The other Japanese beer I like is made in California. Well now, lets get the party started! I ordered my bento box and the fish looks off. The tuna didn't have a bright color, it just looked off. Also, Miso soup should be served after the fish. We as Americans with rice on the outside of the roll, eat the Miso soup when it first comes out. Just a heads up. Also, don't douse the rice in soy sauce. The rice should never touch the soy sauce. See? All these rules with Sushi. That's why I like pizza. The chicken strips tasted bland, I wasn't feeling this bento box. Also, there is another Sushi place three doors down?? Does Garden City warrant all these Sushi places but you can't get a good bagel in a 5 mile radius? The folks seemed nice working here, a solid 3.5 stars from me today read more

Really fresh sushi with tons of options for rolls. Sashimi is per piece but comes out quite thick. Salmon was very good. My friend got the pineapple fried rice which was served in half a pineapple. Unfortunately it was not spicy at all and did not have any cashews. read more

Refuse to refund for missing item Called about a missing item when asked to refund the item Eric was persistent that it was in the bag and someone ate it. My order was 100 dollars why would I call over a ten dollar item if it was there. I was told they were going to void and recharge rather then just refund the item. Every credit card machine can refund, they just didn't want to. Make sure you check the bag because if you don't you'll pay double before getting your money back read more

Fresh fish, great service. They have a hibachi section as well as the traditional sit down sushi. We ordered a few specialty rolls and their sushi boat. They were all tasty although I thought the boat was a bit expensive for the amount of sushi. The owner was super friendly and introduced himself and invited us back to try their omakase. read more

Terrible small portions huge prices the owner is very nasty & mean only cares about money!! I would never recommend this restaurant!!! The ambiance is dark & dirty... the waiters and waitresses a very kind very nice, but the owner treat you like read more

I really liked this place from the moment we walked in and left. They have two hibachi stations and a whole bunch of booths and tables. If you walk through the back there is a bar and few seats you can probably sit at. I'm the front entrance you are basically walking through the restaurant. You can walk through either entrance. They have a sushi menu and hibachi menu. They pretty much have something for everyone! I ordered chirashi, which was portioned beautifully. It was great the right amount of rice to fish. It was not too fishy for me and the fish all tasted very fresh. We had an order of shrimp and scallops, which also was portioned nicely. It comes with a soup or salad and a choice of ice cream at the end. We went with the green tea and it was just the right finish to cleanse our palates. We also had an order of the sashimi delux. Same goes, soup or salad, and your dinner. With dinner we ordered some drinks. They have a Nu- vodka, which is a gluten free vodka. I'm not sure if I haven't drank in a while but to me the Nu lemonade vodka was strong. Overall was a great dinner and going to have to go back to bring my fiancé to try the hibachi table! Overall very happy. read more

Came here for the outdoor seating on my lunch hour. It was a really warm, sunny day but the outdoor tables had umbrellas that kept perfect shade. I ordered :: The green salad w/ ginger dressing- All iceberg lettuce. Average flavor ginger dressing, a little watery than I'd prefer texture wise. Chicken Hibachi lunch- Comes with side of clear soup and green salad. The "clear soup" had a very off taste. Almost sour. Miso soup shouldn't be replaced with this! The chicken hibachi sauce wasn't anything to come back for, but satisfying enough. Good for the the quick lunch break, staff was very attentive and friendly but would try another place over this one next time. read more

Sushi is always a fav. We ordered the rock shrimp- had a nice kick of spice to it and a few rolls. Sak bombs was the name of our game that night and i loved how how attentive every waiter/waitress was. i think we might of stumbled in on someone in managements' birthday?? someone ended up playing his guitar the rest of the night. I was in HEAVEN! Can you guys have an acoustic night once a week? His voice was like a twist of fergie and Jesus! Uh-amazing! read more
