I came across this amazing #momakase deal for one person on Uber Eats and I just had to order it. For $40 bucks I had to choose two rolls and the rest are sushi and sashimi. I chose eel avocado and shrimp tempura rolls. When the food came in there was lots of pickled ginger which worked really well. There was also a good amount of wasabi to mix with the soy sauce. Totally worth the $40 bucks. read more

Average sushi and they did not include any white rice with the sashimi sushi dinner. Salmon teriyaki portion size not impressive but taste was good. I reserve 4 and 5 stars for a place where I can say any of these things: 1) The food is great l; 2) the menu is great; or 3) they give you great value. Didn't get that here.

Came here on a whim because I was in the area. VERY happy with my choice. The food was ready within 10 minutes of calling it in. The sushi was very fresh and delicious. I got the lunch special which was a great deal because you get both a soup and salad while other place usually make you pick between the two. I would absolutely come back here again, everything from the sushi to the salad dressing was delicious. Highly recommend. read more

I would like to give this place 3.5 stars. I ordered a miso soup, lobster roll, Philadelphia roll and a sweetheart roll. This came out to $48. It was a little bit more than I wanted to initially spend, but I did get 3 more than expensive rolls. The lobster roll had "fresh"/real mango on it. I used "fresh" because the mango seemed kinda hard and unripened. I wasn't the biggest fan of that roll. The other 2 rolls were fine. If this is the only sushi spot in the neighborhood, then I guess it's fine. Disclaimers: I don't live in the neighborhood, but I was nearby; I haven't tried other sushi spots in the neighborhood. I didn't die or was sick, so that's a plus. It's always like proceed with caution when trying new sushi spots. I do rely on my fellow Yelp users. I hope this is helpful to the next person. read more

Ordered takeout sushi using their Beyond Menu app which confirmed it would be available for pickup "ASAP" but provided no time. For some reason either the app or the restaurant inserted a time for pickup of 36 minutes later. The waitress (young female Asian) said they only put in the order 20 minutes after I had ordered it rather than when it first came in, and proceeded to fight and argue and even follow me out the door. In addition, the unagi don eel bowl says there are twelve pieces but they only gave us six! Ripoff. Terrible service, so I am downgrading the prior review. read more

Never ever ordered from this place again. If you're hungry , craving for sushi and haven't had dinner , please do not order from this place. I usually order from either Tokyo sushi or Kotobuki, but Tokyo sushi is closed at 9PM and Kotobuki wait time is too long, so we gave Yuzu a try. I ordered few items and two items were missing from my order. My fiancé and I tried one of the sashimi and we almost threw up. I just can't eat the rest of the food. We also ordered some rolls, nope i didn't touch any of them. I ended up eating ramen. The food looked like you bought it from STOP and SHOP. Worse experience ever. The amount of money i paid, I can get a nice platter from Kotobuki or pay less for a nice platter at Tokyo sushi. My $2 ramen is better than this. Definitely not worth it . read more

I used to absolutely love this place. The quality, the service all in all has gone down. I live around the corner and I rather drive elsewhere to get sushi. I came in on a Saturday at 6:30pm and they only had one other table. They sat me and everything was rushed. The server gave me the menu and immediately asked me if I knew what I wanted and i let her know that I needed a minute. Five minutes later she asked again and I ordered the spicy tuna pizza ( I did not realize how much fried rice it was--may bad not theirs) and a sunset roll. They both came out immediately. The sunset roll was awful because the sushi rice was not cooked properly, the crab salad on top was tangy almost sour. I didn't eat the tuna pizza because of the amount of fried rice. I spilled some soy sauce and I used the ONE napkin I was given and the waitress kept looking over and never came over. I kept trying to get her attention for another napkin and she would just peak at my table and walk away. The whole experience was awful. I asked for the check and didn't want to wrap the food. It's a shame because this really used to be my favorite sushi spot. The staff honestly does not care and just wants to get the customers out the door. read more

So I came in here for takeout for a spicy tuna roll, amazing roll, garden salad, and a crab roll. I looked at the menu online and was pleased with their options but confused that my total was 36.66$ total. I thought first it was a lot of tax added on to my total, but then I saw the crab roll was charged for 10$ when it was listed on the menu for like only 4$. The spicy crunchy roll was 6$ and was listed for only 2.5$ on the menu online. The garden salad and amazing roll were evenly priced. I also ordered a side of spicy mayo sauce but instead they gave me spring eel sauce. Overall, the sushi was very good and I was pleased with the quality I just thought the price difference from online versus in the restaurant needs to be updated. As for the location the place inside is nice however the parking is terrible and it was a struggle to find a good place without getting a parking ticket. If you are coming to Roslyn I would recommend dining in and not taking out as the parking isn't really the best and they can confuse what you ordered. read more

I've been ordering from Yuzu for the past 7 years I've lived in Roslyn. I used to think this other Japanese place (no names) was more catered to taste and quality but it was more costly and definitely after Covid, that place has gone down in ratings for me. This is not to take away from Yuzu. They've always been consistent in quality and presentation and taste and always followed my directions (cut rolls into 8 pieces for my boys). Now they even have uni, botani ebi, and the uni special for delivery. Truly yummy!!! I will keep ordering to ensure they stay in business read more

Yuzu is worse that two day old supermarket sushi. in addition to being "tasteless" the portions were small and thrown on a plate.

However, we thought the place was very crowded. It was clear that they placed as many tables as they could without trying to take away from the aesthetics. It was also so loud that you couldn't really hear yourself talk. My other problem was that though the staff was very kind and attentive, it did feel as if they were rushing us out, in order to sit another party, which was very frustrating because it felt like you couldn't really enjoy the food. It was our first night out in awhile and the experience felt rushed and underwhelming, unfortunately, despite the food being so good. I recommend going before or after peak hours to avoid some of the chaos.

We walked in here after realizing some of the other restaurants in the area were too small to…read moreaccommodate our large party. The ambiance is quite nice. Really sleek, darkly lit and feeling like it's a place for a date night. But they had a lot of families with small kids in the restaurant as well. There's plenty of seating! I thought it was so nice of them to start us off with a bowl of warm edamame as we perused through the menu. Menu is not super extensive but it was a little difficult to read through. Large list of drinks compared to the food. It was also a little bit hectic hailing down the waitstaff for help, but it was a very busy weekend night. I ordered a couple of rolls. The East House roll was very nice, though I didn't expect from the description that the roll would not be wrapped in nori but in that clear-ish yubu skin situation. I wasn't mad about it, the presentation was beautiful. All of the fish felt very clean and not too strong or fishy tasting. I also had a spicy tuna roll which was good but not really spicy or tuna-y enough for my preferences. The sushi rice layers were nicely thin so that I didn't feel overstuffed with rice afterwards. Someone from my table ordered the hot udon as it was a cold and drizzly day outside. They felt the flavor was bland. It looked fairly bland and disappointing. Miso soup was also bland, though it was generously portioned. The shrimp teriyaki was overcooked. I do think this is a nice elevated environment, and as long as you're getting something from the sushi bar. It's a bit pricey, but you're getting pretty decent quality fish.

I must be missing something with all the 5 star reviews. One of the most overpriced and mediocre…read moreplaces I've visited. Full disclosure - didn't get any sushi as prices were ridiculous. We had kitchen entrees. Stopped by here after visiting sands point preserve hoping for good meal Atmosphere is very austere. Feels like corporate cafeteria rather than a restaurant. Service was on par with casual Chinese takeout. Waitstaff seemed annoyed we were there. They cleaned the table while we were still sitting Kitchen entrees were huge but just ok food wise. Chicken was very dry and rice bland To be fair, we didn't get sushi but prices for sushi here were crazy. Same platter or chirashi I can get in manhattan for $18-20 was $45 here. Rolls and appetizers were north of $20. That is nonsensical So final review: Ambiance -2-3 Service -1 Food 2

Great sushi spot for a nice intimate dinner!…read more The spicy dumpling soup was my fave of the night. All the food options are delicious! It does get packed so make sure you make a reservation

I was lucky to get a high top table for 2 on a Saturday last night to try Tiga. I will say that the…read morehigh top tables are small so could be a little uncomfortable. The restaurant itself was cozy and intimate - it kind of gives you a NYC restaurant kind of vibe which was nice to see on Long Island. I would note that it was freezing out and all the cold air came in when the front door opened. This made it very uncomfortable - I wonder how it is when it's really hot outside. Also, because it is a small restaurant, noise levels could be elevated. Spicy dumpling soup - very good but dumpling had no flavor. Probably store bought. Fluke carpaccio - very good. Some shrimp appetizer - shrimp was small and sauce was almost like a curry sauce. I would pass. Sushi platter - very good. Nigiris are pretty small. This won't fill you up. Grand wazoo roll - this was okay, torched squid was a little tough. Isn't she lovely roll - this was okay. Steak with potatoes and brussels sprouts - not much steak but very tender. Brussels sprouts were nicely cooked. Overall, a good experience especially with the service being top notch. While sitting on the high top worked, it took away from the experience. I would get a regular table or sit at the sushi bar. We were also distracted from the cold air coming in that my wife had to wear her coat. If you like a modern take on sushi, I think you would like this place but if you're looking for something more traditional, I would look elsewhere.

We love Umami! I love the ambiance and fresh sushi here…read more I love their Kobe roll, yellow roll and umami roll. I love their tea, edamame and rock shrimp. Everything I have had here is delicious. The staff is friendly and helpful. I feel like I'm walking into a spa when I come here. I love it here! I can't wait to come back!

Overall, this restaurant has pretty fresh sushi but the prices are very high relative to location…read more Their price point is similar to NYC prices but pales in comparison to NY sushi spots in terms of high quality and variety. You can easily spend hundreds of dollars for sush at Unamii that you can get l better value at midtown NYC or other LI spots. As much as I prefer to support local businesses, I don't believe this is worth it. In fairness, the ambiance and decor inside restaurant look lovely.
