    First time doing take out here for lunch and it was a bad experience! They are short staffed and only had 1 person doing everything! :( I had to wait an extra 15 minutes after my food was supposed to be ready. Nobody even helped me for a long time. Nobody was up front!

    Tempura ice cream

    We had a great dinner here. We got the shumai as an appetizer and it was lite and delicious. We got 5 rolls: Kani roll, devils roll with jalapeño and sriracha, Spicy carb roll, shrimp tempura roll, and a spicy tuna toll. They were all fresh and super tasty. But nothing compared to the tempura ice cream. It was vanilla ice cream rolled in tempura batter and fried. It was a special but if you see it get it. Only issue was we got soda that tasted funny but they replaced it no issues. Good/fast service, great location, and delicious food.

    Maki and special roll plate was delicious

    Visiting Williamsburg from NC, and we love Japanese food so we decided to eat here tonight. The host greeted us with a sweet n cheery attitude and sat us right away. The waitress took our order with promptness. She was fantastic. The food was delicious! Service was fast and friendly.

    What a delicious meal. Had so many things. All delicious. Had suggested squid salad. That was super good. It's not fast, but worth it.

    Lunch bento box with teriyaki beef

    First off: it has taken no less than five attempts to order takeout from Sushiya. No matter the time of day, the phone generally rings endlessly. Finally, I managed to speak to a human. She was very impatient on the phone, though she apologized profusely in person when I picked up my order. She was very kind and pleasant, in person, though it was one of the most rude phone conversations that I've ever had. The order was ... accurate? I think? It's hard to say. But I ended up paying about eight dollars more than I anticipated. I also ended up with more food than I anticipated, half of which wasn't to my liking, so I guess it was all a wash? The food was all a little disappointing. The teriyaki chicken and teriyaki beef were just just grilled with a a little, tiny bit of sauce drizzled over them. All of the vegetables were overcooked. The food wasn't bad. It might have gotten three stars, as it is better than reheating frozen meals. But it was so difficult to actually order, that they lose points for that.

    The service was awesome, and the food SO GOOD. If you have a sushi craving like I did.... You'll be so happy you came here!

    Sashimi lunch combo A

    I loved this hidden gem. I yelped for a sushi place and found this cause of the great reviews. This is the kind of place that I love to find. It's nothing fancy at all but they have some amazing sushi and really creative plates. I loved the spicy Kani salad. Huge chunks of cucumber and perfect mix of ingredients. My oyster shooters with quail egg were very unique and I had never tried that before. My sashimi lunch combo was also very good. My friends chicken teriyaki was excellent and only $10.00. She also had a clear soup with noodles with was delicious. I would come back here if I lived here a lot.

    Sushiya: Leftovers, boxed to go.

    Disclaimer: I am not well versed in Japanese cuisine. But after my meal yesterday, I hope to change that. I had a bit of time to kill before the start of the concert at Williamsburg Community Chapel; plus I was hungry. I got some staples at Harris Teeter, then walked over to Sushiya. It was a little after five, and the dinner crowd had yet to arrive. I was seated at a 4-top and given water and a menu. The Steak & Scallop, $26.95, sounded yummy, so I asked what cut was the steak? New York Strip, but you can upgrade it to Filet Mignon. I ordered the New York Strip option, and started to order other things, but my server said that Soup, Salad, and Veggies are included. Cool. Bring it on! A minute later my Clear Soup came out, a savory broth with a few veggies. Quite good; I'll do that again. Next came my Salad. Lettuce, Tomato, Cukes, julienned Carrots and Bermuda Onion. Topped with House Sesame dressing. Super! Then then the entree, a dinner plate of seared Scallops, seared Steak, a scoop of Fried Rice, and a scoop of a vegetable medley comprising Broccoli and other items. And a scoop of noodles, Miso, I believe. It was all good, though I don't and didn't eat Broccoli. I ate until sated, then requested a box and dessert menu. There is no dessert menu, but my server recited several dishes, notably Tempura Ice Cream. I ordered that and boxed my leftovers. The dessert was presented quickly. While tasty, it was indistinguishable from "Fried Ice Cream" I've had in Mexican cantinas. Time to go. I requested the check and prepared myself for sticker shock. Pleasantly surprised when the check said $36.38. I left with a smile on my face. Sushiya will be a repeat. I interacted with 2 servers, both very pleasant. The store was clean, and parking was ample.

    The best sushi and tempura restuarant around Williamsburg. Food is fresh and served very quick. The Hama Hama oysters shooters with Saki are delicious. Staff are friendly and attentive, dinning area is slightly upscale but family friendly, and you can watch the chefs prepare the food. Recommend the teriyaki salmon with Ichiban beer. Bento boxes come with lots of choices. Highly recommend for a wonderful Japanese experience, lunch or dinner.

    I love this place! I come here all the time for sushi. I've also had their hibachi grill once and it was great.

    Food was well prepared, tasty, fresh and very satisfying…read more Service was every bit a compliment to the food quality. Priced competitively but value met my expectations.

    This is a five star restaurant with a one star on price. We could wax on about the addictive Tom…read moreaka soup, the authenticity delicious Bangkok street food style Chicken Satay, the (too) generous Sushi & Sashimi pieces and the sinfully good Mango Sticky Rice. Thai Tara had been our favorite place to dine in Williamsburg... ...until last night. There is one simple reason that it has fallen off our list: Outrageous prices that are constantly rising. We have visited this restaurant biweekly for the past year since we moved here and at least twice on every visit to Williamsburg since the restaurant opened. What we have noticed is that the prices are going up at a far higher rate than general inflation. We started to dine at Thai Tara when it first opened a few years ago when it cost us $40-50 per person. Slowly at first, it became an expensive treat. But last night we were handed a bill for $70 per person; for 3 of us, the bill came to was $215. Nothing extravagant. Three $6 beers, three appetizers and a few pieces of Sushi and Sashimi. And for the first time in memory, the sushi rice was not properly seasoned and sticky, which makes for a poorly prepared product. But this review is not about a single disappointing food experience which is certainly the exception. This is about the outrageous prices. It is our opinion that pure greed is on display here. They fill the restaurant several times over almost every evening. They won a Best Restaurant honor recently. So our guess is that the owners have figured that they can grab for more profit and if they lose a few patrons, no big deal. They just need to keep in mind that many of their close-by loyal neighbors who are on a retirement budget and frequented this establishment, and are coming to the same conclusion. Thai Tara is overtly overpriced. So sad to say "so long ", Thai Tara. You have priced yourselves out of our budget.
