    Wowowow I am definitely coming back here. We ordered a set of food and enjoyed it so much, we ordered seconds on the spot. I don't remember the names of what we ordered but I took a photo so I could show the waiter next time I'm there. We walked in with 5 people and got a seat immediately on a Sunday night.

    Ordered Maki Trio lunch plus scallop maki on Grubhub and it was so good . Would recommend!

    I ordered the trio maki lunch and added a scallop roll on Grubhub and it was all so good! The scallop was super fresh and sweet so I was very pleasantly surprised. The tempura was super flakey with panko. It was exactly what I wanted and the trio maki lunch deal came with a miso soup. Grubhub gives a discount if you are an Amazon prime member just fyi!! I would like to dine in when I have time. Would recommend!

    Not pictured was the 10 nigiri piece entree. I thought that this entree was the least exciting of everything we got. The fish was mild. The tuna tartare was really good! It was a very small bite for 2. The soulmate was really cute and tasted like what I expected! The fried rice with the soy sauce on the table was yummy! It didn't feel as heavy as other fried rice.

    Came on a Sunday evening and the restaurant wasn't too crowded. We did have a reservation however and was able to get a table. The ambiance of Verge is very nice with warm lighting and a modern interior design feel. The food was pretty good. I think there might be more economical options during lunch but for the quality of fish, it is pretty standard for nyc. I got a cooked roll because I am boring and don't like raw fish that much but my friends enjoyed their raw fish selections.

    Order the miso mustard salmon omg it was SO perfect: cooked exactly medium as requested, the dijon sauce and the veggies both were so tasty! We also got the agedashi tofu which comes with 5 pieces and they are BIG and it's 9.50!?! My friends ordered a lot of sushi and crispy rice and they LOVED it. One of the best meals Ive had in 2026! Will be back soon! Staff are so welcoming! Love this neighborhood spot!!!

    I'm not sure if you need reservations. But I made one for two people and in the beginning they had us sit at the counter and I wasn't too pleased with it. But I asked if we could have a table, and they were able to accommodate us and had a stool to place my bag on top. What great customer service. For the food, there were a bunch of starters that we ordered, such as the butter edamame. Omg! The edamame had a great mix of butter on it, plus the salt. I was very impressed. It tasted like buttery popcorn that you get at the movies. The least favorite was the Akami Tuna Sushi Rice, but it was still above average. The Kushiyaki, which had three skewers of rib eye with vegetables in teriyaki sauce which was amazing. The soul mate signature roll with fresh spicy tuna and avocado was made into a heart, and that not only tasted great but looked great, too. For dessert, I got the mochi and chose three different flavors. I would come back again to get other things off the menu.

    Sushi Premium (6 pcs / 10 pcs / 15pcs)

    I ordered delivery since I wasn't feeling well. I am so disappointed that I ordered from here. I was looking for good sushi place for few hours then decided to order from here since reviews were good and pictures were look good too. Most disappointed part was sushi premium 10 piece nigiri. I had high hope that this was going to be good but it's not premium at all. They had one regular tuna, Salmon, all others were white fish that I don't prefer. Not uni, no ikura and no yellow tail. Just white fish they topping different. I cannot believe they call this premium and charge 60 dollars for it. These were not even tasty. I had better sushi at AYE restaurant On Verge Roll, uni was not fresh. I could taste bitter and some parts were melting and changing color. I still taste it from my stomach bitter sea smell and feeling nauseous. Trust me, I love uni usually. Wagyu toast was all over mess . I understand since it was delivered but it should be different way. My partner said hamach belly and wagyu nigiri was ok. I'm not sure if it was because delivery, they didn't use good ingredients?? Was it better to eat in restaurants? But I would not order from here again.

    The best thing I had here was the tofu and I don't even like tofu. The flavors for each sushi were mediocre. It wasn't anything special. I have had better fish and also better flavor in each sushi before. The shrimp was okay. The roll was meh. The service was good.

    SOLID sushi spot in Greenpoint. The first time I came here (3ish months ago), all the sushi was great but then we ordered the Filet Mignon w/ Foie Gras and that was disappointing. Should have known better than to order a Filet Mignon at a sushi restaurant but my partner wanted to try it... Second time we came back more recently, we stuck to sushi/appetizers so our visit was much better with no failed items. Kona Kanpachi (4/5): very fresh yellowtail but the sauce is overpowering. We asked for the sauce on the side the 2nd time around and it was so much better. Paradise, Verge Authentic, Hokkaido Scallop Nigiri, California & Hokkaido Uni Nigiri, Yellowtail Jalapeno roll, and Spicy Scallop roll were all delicious and the fish to rice ratio was perfect. On the first visit when we ordered the Filet Mignon w/ Foie Gras, the waiter/kitchen actually forgot our order so we waited over 30 minutes for it (should have not reminded them looking back). Once we received it, the steak was closer to well done than medium rare so we asked for another one that wasn't well done. After the second one finally came out and we actually tried the steak, it was so underwhelming. Not the best quality meat and compared to all the sushi/fish items we had to force ourselves to finish it.

    Went to this sushi bar with a few friends yesterday after finishing up at nearby Vessel Floats. We were excited to check it out as it had been on our lists to try for a few months now. The restaurant is fairly new, just over a year old, and you can tell how much the staff really cherish each customer. We were greeted immediately by a very personable server who let us choose our seats and quickly engaged us in some light conversation. As we sat down all of us were struck by the beautiful decor inside. The bar area had this stunning gold metal background and there were plants everywhere! Even the light fixtures were unique with gold oddly shaped bulbs hanging from the ceiling. Now to the food! I, as a non-seafood eater, ended up ordering the miso soup and tonkatsu. The miso soup felt like a warm hug and the tonkatsu was flavorful but just a little tough. My friends ended up ordering the miso soup as well, a seafood bisque which I heard was delicious, and an assortment of sushi rolls and oysters. I heard no complaints and in fact, everyone left full and happy. We also ordered a bottle of the yuzu sake which was dangerous!! Sweet and tasty :) Would absolutely come again!

    So I came here with my friend for dinner tonight since we wanted to catch up and haven't had dinner together in awhile. I was skeptical of this place before going since it had only 40 reviews and the name didn't sound Japanese. Well we walked in the restaurant is beautiful and has an amazing atmosphere. Also was very crowded for a Tuesday night. I was so happy I called to make the reservation as they had no online reservation platform I could find. The servers here were very friendly and the food came out very efficiently. We ordered the signature verge roll, the paradise and the Chilean sea bass. The paradise came out first I think it was the best bite of the night and it was Uber fresh! This is quality toro and very quality uni! That was like heaven in your mouth, wish I had more than 4 pieces. Next put was the verge signature roll. On first bite I thought it tasted very fresh but was lacking something, so I dabbed a very little bit of soy sauce on it and it made the whole piece sing in my mouth. Again all fish was super fresh and high quality, uni was also still amazing in this. We finished off with the sea bass that was delicious and luscious. It wasn't heavily sauced or seasoned but I also don't think Chilean sea-bass really needs any of that. We had the first sale on the menu, korabatu? Or something similar to that and it was very good, a bit of a sweet melon taste and paired well with the food. It was more notes of junmai than daijingo. I will definitely be back to try more

    Seared salmon roll w house sauce
    Cece L.

    Solid food with great decor and ambiance. My friend and I split the unagi donburi and the seared salmon w house sauce roll. The donburi, although a huge portion, was a bit cold. Could've been warmer and the sauce a bit less sweet? Or sour? There was something I didn't love about it, but I did think the eel was well-cooked and generous. Our roll was just okay. The sauce was super strong and overpowering. One downside -- the food came out pretty slowly and some of us didn't get our meals until others were almost done with theirs. But the servers were really nice and offered a complementary dessert for the table due to the wait.

    Very nice ambiance, loved how this place was decorated. Service was attentive, food was great. The dishes were all artfully presented and creative. My favorite would have to be the Greenpoint authentic roll. Wagyu uni toast was good but the toast itself didn't match up to the quality of the other ingredients. Sparkling sake was really nice and refreshing, something I hadn't had before. Had the mochi ice cream for dessert, which was super yummy (favorite was salted caramel followed by the passion fruit).

    What a great meal! We shared the Kaishin don, mentai pasta, and then 2 rolls between 2 of us. We…read morewere originally just going to order one roll but then the waitress told us it wouldn't be enough food but then we ended up having a ton of leftovers, so next time I wouldn't order that again. The Kaishin don was the star. The fish was so fresh and the seaweed added a nice crunch. The mentai pasta was nice a creamy and the bacon bits added nice flavor. The rolls were also good but nothing to write home about so I might sub these for another dish the next time. Service was great and will definitely find myself back here at some point!

    Ozakaya has been high on my list since I heard about it a few months ago, so my friend and I went…read morefor dinner this past Friday. Reservations become available 14 days in advance on Resy, so I'd highly recommend booking early to secure a table during normal eating hours. Sadly, since it was just the two of us, we couldn't sample as much of the menu as we wanted. Our server recommended a hot appetizer and a fancier option from their Summer Special menu: KARAAGE - 14 Each order came with five thick pieces of chicken karaage. The chicken arrived hot and juicy, seasoned well enough to be enjoyed on its own or dipped in the side of shichimi mayo. This was a great appetizer to share, and I'd recommend it if you're looking for a reliable classic. TEMAKI SET - 95 Served in roughly an 8"x8" wooden box, this set was lavishly topped toro, Hokkaido uni, ikura, and possibly Iberian ham, with crispt nori sheets on the side to make DIY handrolls. After scooping a bit of everything into a little wrap, I was greeted with the most intense, fresh sea flavors. The toro and Iberian ham were fatty and buttery, blending seamlessly with the velvety smooth uni and the fresh, bursting pops of ikura. I had to pause after every bite just to deeply savor it, and I lost count of how many times I said, "Wow, this is so good." Since I don't live in NYC, I generally avoid repeating restaurants even if I enjoyed them. However, Ozakaya is an exception to this rule -- it's easily one of the best meals I've eaten during all my recent visits. I don't know where they source their seafood, but it's incredibly fresh and packed with umami. Even days after, I'm still thinking about the velvety sweetness of that uni, and I can't wait for my next visit.

The menu is pretty diverse with various appetizers, sushi, and also ramen/curry so your standard izakaya fare. One of my favorite dishes here has been the chirashi. The fish was very fresh and it's pretty affordable.

It's been open for a few years, so clearly it has a good enough formula to keep the neighborhood happy. I have been here once before, but returned last week after dining several meals at Tomoni in Jackson Heights. Apparently, the owners are friends. Nonetheless, I needed to make the comparison. After my first few bites of their Tora Don and Chirashi Don, it was clear that this restaurant has the better quality seafood. Each slice of sashimi had vibrant colors, clean taste, and the proper texture. Tomoni is not bad, but fall slightly short of this caliber. With that said, there is an even farther gap between their rice quality. Though Tora is very good, Tomoni produces nearly perfect texture and acidity for my taste buds. Other than the best omakase restaurants in NYC, Tomoni shines as one of the best versions of sushi rice in the five boroughs. Service is good and space is cute. If I have a craving for some decent Japanese food, I would drive 20 minutes here for a meal anytime.

    While wandering through Bed-Stuy on a weekday evening, my husband and I decided to try out this new…read moresushi spot. It wasn't terrible--but I had a lot of mixed feelings. Food: 3/5 I'm a huge sushi fan, so I was excited when I saw a deluxe sashimi set on the menu. Unfortunately, it didn't quite hit the mark. The scallop was thinly sliced and lacked the rich texture I was hoping for. The salmon and other cuts were decent, but short and oddly shaped--chunky yet small, which made the whole presentation feel a bit off for something labeled deluxe. We also tried to branch out and ordered the short rib entree. For $21, it was shockingly small--definitely a single-person portion, not sharable. I added extra ikura to a salmon donburi bowl for $2, but it was barely a teaspoon's worth--just enough to say it was there. Oddly, the salmon slices in that bowl were thinner than the sashimi we had just eaten, and overall, it left me still hungry even after sharing a maki roll. Lastly, my husband ordered a green salad, which somehow took the entire meal service to arrive. When it finally came, it was just plain romaine, cucumbers, radish, and dressing. For a dinner that clocked in at over $150 (after tip), we definitely left underwhelmed. Service: 3/5 This part wasn't bad, just confusing. We were seated quickly, but the pacing of the meal was strange. Our seaweed salad and soups came out promptly, but the green salad came last, after the hot dishes and nearly after my husband finished eating. Also, a small thing--but when I'm paying $16 for four oysters, I want to know what kind they are. The menu just said "West Coast oysters," but our server couldn't tell us the variety or origin. Not a huge deal, but it added to a general lack of polish that didn't quite match the pricing. I don't think I'd return. For the price, there are better sushi options in Brooklyn with higher quality, better portions, and clearer service. Still, I appreciate new spots opening up in the neighborhood, and I'm always happy to try something new. Hopefully they refine the menu and service with time.

We started with the salmon belly carpaccio which I'd say isn't really a carpaccio because the salmon isn't sliced as thinly as you'd expect. But! I mention that just to set expectations. Nomenclature aside, it's an excellent appetizer. Served in a truffle and ponzu sauce, the salmon is lightly seared which yields two different textures to the fish. It practically melts in your mouth. Highly recommend this dish. For my entree I went with the trio don, which is 6 pieces of sashimi served over your choice of plain or sushi rice (sushi rice for me). The fish was fresh and flavorful. The portion was perfect for me. My boyfriend ordered a yellowtail roll and enjoyed that as well. We also shared a carafe of the cold house sake. I'd definitely come back and try more items on the menu. It's great for sharing and trying new dishes. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the prices were very reasonable.
