    Gyoza
    Nikki T.

    I hate leaving reviews like this, but my recent experience at Y&Y Sushi was honestly shocking. My server, Donna, was extremely unpleasant from the moment I walked in. I was the only person dining in the entire restaurant, yet I still felt rushed and unwelcome. Things went downhill quickly when my main dish arrived before my appetizer. I ate my entire meal, and only after I finished did Donna ask if I needed anything else. That's when it became obvious she had completely forgotten my appetizer (gyoza). What made the situation worse was the complete lack of accountability. There was no apology, no acknowledgment of the mistake, and no effort to fix it. When you're literally the only customer in the restaurant, there's really no excuse for that level of inattentiveness. I've been here before, which is why this experience was so disappointing. But this visit left such a terrible taste in my mouth that I felt compelled to warn others. Customer service matters just as much as the food, and unfortunately, this experience made me feel like my time and money didn't matter at all. The service was terrible .

    Bone in sushi

    Second time in a row, ordering pickup. They do not give me my entire order. This is beyond absurd. I specifically asked is my entire order there, yes, I got home and again missing items. Now I have to wait an hour for them to bring my order. How do you keep messing up. Lost me as a customer. Also just pulled out massive bone out of my yellowtail roll

    Checked out this new sushi place for my mother's birthday, only a short walk from Kings Plaza so perfect for dinner after shopping. It was quiet but had a steady turnover of customers. Appreciated how friendly the staff was and they were able to accommodate my toddler with a high chair. There are obvious attention to the decor details from the pretty plating to cozy booths and a projector playing serene images of dolphins swimming and flowers on the wall. We ordered the special party tray which came plated on a big wooden boat, the YY special roll and dragon roll, the salmon bento box and a yakisoba. The food was okay, nothing bad but the sushi rice was somewhat cold and the yakisoba was a tad too salty. I ordered fried ice cream at the end, asking if the waitress could write happy birthday on the plate for my mother. She said she will see what she can do and then promptly exceeded expectations, bringing out a slice of delicious crepe cake with a candle in addition to the ice cream and playing the happy birthday song as well as changing the projector to show cute birthday cartoon images on the walls. They also gave us a plate of cut oranges at the end of the meal. I would give the food 4 stars but the awesome service and the cute family friendly decor here rounds up my review to 5 stars. Hope they continue to keep up such great customer care.

    Finally, a Japanese restaurant in the neighborhood! We reserved the back dining area for a family gathering. The space is large enough to fit 30 people so we have space to move around. The menu has your typical Japanese food at a reasonable price (bento box) plus they have seafood boils if you're into that. The service here was great. Abby was attentive and took care of everything. They even gave us some complimentary appetizers as well as desserts. I would recommend giving this place a try. We have to support this local business or else it'll end up like its predecessors in that location.

    Got some take out from here to check out how that is. Was pleasantly surprised that I had just as good food through delivery as I did while I at in. I ordered a bento box, with chicken katsu. Everything it came with was great. Liked the fried dumplings and the shrimp tempura especially. I also ordered some sushi pieces just to check out the quality of the fish on a few other things. I got shrimp, yellowtail, tuna and white tuna. The tuna sushi piece was the best by far with the white tuna piece a close second. Still super excited this place opened in the neighborhood & I can't wait to come back!

    The food here was sooo good, and the ambience can't be beat. I especially enjoyed their Salmon Lovers entree, plus the addition of Chow Fun makes this place a great spot for a date. The trippy videos projected on the wall is something that most restaurants have and it is a nice conversation piece. They also gave us a complimentary dessert! It was all so delicious. Well done!

    The staff here are incredibly friendly and kind, helping us with our accommodations and helpful recommendations for my pregnant wife. The ambiance is also quite unique, with various projector screens displaying moving images to provide a calm and relaxing dining experience! The miso soup is your typical miso soup so can't go wrong with that. The salad comes with a flavorful mayo-based dressing and comes with a mixture of greens and veggies! The Kani salad was tasty as well and comes with just enough dressing and crunchy flakes to add a nice crunchy contrast. The jalapeño cream cheese and crab bomb is an off-menu specialty and tasted so good with a playful contrast of creamy, spicy, and savory, highly recommended! Oysters were fresh, meaty,and not overly briny. The sashimi a la carte we ordered were all fresh and reasonably priced! The salmon and mixed vegetable tempura was delicious, where the Panko breading was very light and not oily at all! Our steak and salmon bento set was bittersweet, where the California roll pieces, tempura, and dumplings were all delicious! However, the steak and salmon were too dry for our liking. Our waitress was sweet and really appreciated our opinion regarding the bento sets, which is what any good restaurant would do so they can continue to strive for the very best! We loved their openness and friendliness, and we definitely will come back to try the rest of their menu, for there's such a wide variety! Thank you Sophia, for the amazing service! Thank you so much for reading and please give them a try if you're craving some good quality Japanese food! (:

    Octopus
    Steve S.

    Wow, what a great new restaurant! We came here on a Thursday night and had the best time. We were greeted very warmly from the waitress. We started off our meal with some hot sake. Followed by some sashimi Gyoza and an octopus appetizer. Everything was very good and fresh. They ended up bringing out complementary lobster, which was delicious, as well as some type of lobster salad on top of a chip. This was very nice of them to do that and possibly part of their grand opening special. We ordered a variety of sushi rolls, and everything we ate was fresh and well-made. They even brought out a complementary cheesecake dessert, which was pretty good, and we also got an order of fried ice cream. The bill was very cheap for everything that we got and I will definitely be coming back to the sushi restaurant!

    chicken yaki soba and american dream roll (I had already eaten 2-3 pieces)
    Kay C.

    Amazing. I was so happy because I was having a hard time finding a sushi place that was not kosher so they'd have shrimp. I don't like raw fish or most fish, honestly... but I do LOVE rolls that have crab (kani) and shrimp. I had a promo through UberEats and finding nothing but 5-star reviews and seeing a ton of pictures of the interior, decided to give it a try. I ordered the gyoza, chicken yaki soba, and the American Dream Roll. Gyoza: Utter. perfection. I've tried a number of places looking for good gyoza. Usually either the outside was too chewy or not crispy enough (I order it fried) or the filling texture was off/seemingly under-cooked. I honestly had started to give up on finding a good one. I chose to try though, and I'm so glad I did. They looked amazing (so much that I ate them all before I remembered to take the picture), texture was perfect, the sauce was amazing, and I gobbled them up so fast I was mad at myself for not getting two. Chicken yaki soba: Just needs some soy sauce and red pepper flakes (personal preferences) and then it is perfect. Saved this for later to eat fully because honestly I was full. American Dream Roll: So this is made up of tempura shrimp, avocado and spicy kani on top. I asked them to add in cucumber in the special instructions, which I'm always wary about as sometimes some places ignore them. Not them!! I was very happy to pull the roll out and immediately see cucumber in it and I wasn't even charged extra. Fantastic. Added the wasabi to the soy and I was so, so happy. Very generous with the shrimp tempura too. I will definitely be ordering again from them, and I could probably live off that gyoza honestly.

    The food is excellent and flavorful. I had the seafood fried rice . Mexican roll , spider roll, YY roll, and eel and cucumber roll. I recommend alll.

    We cane in with 30 minutes til closing and man we were positively surprised. Not only did they have a beautifully decorated entrance, but their sushi plating was breath-taking and it really didn't take us long to get our food (mad it took was like 8 minutes). Staff is super polite and friendly; they even asked US if it was okay that they close at 10. Also the projections throughout the establishment really added to the environment. 10/10

    I found my new sushi spot in Brooklyn!! Came here for the first time and was greeted with warm and friendly hellos. The decor is beautiful and far from your typical "sushi restaurant." They have a sushi ferris wheel! The place was immaculate and their bathroom was very clean. We mostly had their sushi rolls and spicy kani salad which was delicious. The rolls we ordered were: spicy tuna, shrimp tempura, salmon tempura, mango avocado roll, New York roll, Hendrickson roll and Volcano roll. All the rolls were delicious and fresh. My favorite was the New York roll. To top it off, we received our rolls on a boat which took the presentation to the top! We also received complimentary appetizer and dessert which was so tasty. My sushi craving was beyond satisfied and will definitely come back here for more. I would love to try their seafood broils for next time. The service was top notch and the prices are super affordable and fair. I highly recommend this sushi restaurant and would love to continue supporting their business! P.S. they serve bubble tea and their taro bubble tea was so good.

The fish was very fresh and good quality. We tried the fried purple yams, fried chicken, stir fried udon, yakisoba, and a variety of sushi platters. I would highly recommend the Tokyo Don which was a variety of fish and seafood on a bed of rice. The Salmon Lover's was also excellent, and slices of fish were nice and thick. Service: Service was wonderful! Our waiter was attentive and came back to check on us throughout the meal. There's a button to press when you need service, and our waiter was always quick to come after we pressed it. Ambiance: The restaurant is a good size with tables sectioned off into small "rooms". There are two private rooms downstairs that fit about 6-7 people each. The rooms are adjoining and good for large groups. Seating downstairs is the Japanese-style tables where you put your legs into a pit under the table. Decor and ambiance is very nice, and seating is comfortable. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant!

It was an absolute lifesaver that kept the girls happily entertained. And the food was absolutely worth savoring. We kicked things off with a round of handrolls--salmon avocado, spicy salmon, and yellowtail--which were perfectly crisp and packed with fresh fish. I went all in on the Salmon Lovers set, and it was an absolute dream. It came with a massive, beautiful spread of salmon sushi, seven thick pieces of melt-in-your-mouth sashimi, a salmon avocado roll, a bright kani salad, and a really savory piece of grilled salmon. We also shared the Ysukiji sushi platter, which featured a gorgeous, high-quality assortment of cuts, while the Smoked Chicken bento box was a huge hit, offering fantastic cooked flavors and generous portions. The room we were in mimicked a traditional Japanese room where everyone had to sit on the floor and put their legs under the table. It was fun for the younger people but it was difficult for the elders to sit down and get back up. Between the incredibly fresh sushi and the warm hospitality that kept the whole family smiling the entire time, this spot easily earned five stars. We can't wait to come back!

    We made reservations at 10am to try Rule of Thirds for brunch. The restaurant is very spacious and…read moreeach area is designed in a unique yet complementary way. Ambiance had a nice vibe. There was a limited availability menu as well as there regular menu, so we ordered from both: Chutoro Sashimi ($27) - included 6 pieces of fatty bluefin tuna, that could be paired with a wasabi kizami (chopped fresh wasabi stems and leaves marinated in soy sauce), and aged soy sauce. Fish was fresh and the pairings added nicely to each bite. Crab Somen ($29) - included somen noodles, a cold crab dashi, with tomato ohitashi, herbs, and chili oil. The broth was very salty but it didn't cling to noodles well. Adding some chili oil helped a bit, but the star was the cherry tomatoes. Without it the dish would have tasted plan. I was not a fan of this one. Japanese Breakfast Set ($30) - normally the set comes with a roasted market fish, assorted seasonal vegetables, nanatsuboshi short grain rice, and almond miso soup. We swapped it for the limited time Misozuke Tuna Belly, which was dense, meaty, and was marinated in a saikyp miso. The tuna belly was flavorful on it's own, but adding the lemon and green kizami (not sure what this was made of, but it had a pickled, relish, citrusy, savory umami flavor) made it more enjoyable. The rice was fluffy and the light meaty floss on top paired nicely together. I was impressed with the egg and pickled side. Egg texture was like a custard tofu fusion, and I really like the julienned pickled radish. The miso soup is different from regular Japanese restaurants since it had a roasted nutty depth of flavor. This set was delicious. Chicken Katsu ($18) - included panko-fried thigh, b&b daikon, katsu sauce, and mustard. The chicken was juicy dark meat, portion size was a good. I like how they added crunch with the lettuce and sliced daikon. Note to only add a little Japanese Mustard because it was hot. Hottokek ($20) - This is a Japanese Souffle Pancake fluffy hotcake, with honey maple butter, and sesame. When looking at other tables, I understood why people only ate from the middle outwards. The core of the dish was a good souffle, with a soft, airy, creamy texture, in conjunction with the butter and syrup. However, due to the size it's difficult to maintain that quality throughout the whole souffle. The outer layer just tasted like a Chinese sponge cake. Would have liked if there was more butter and syrup provided on the side. The dishes come one at a time so it's not overwhelming to eat, especially when you have a small table and you order a lot of food. The prices are a little steep, but service is good and staff was attentive. It kind of shares a space with a wedding venue, so you can hear and see guests walking, which is interesting. There are 5 individual bathrooms provided, as well. Overall rating would be a 4.5, but I rounded it up to a 5 since I would want to come back again.

    Rule of Neglecting the Thirds…read more The space is truly iconic. Rule of Thirds occupies a fantastic warehouse in Greenpoint, and the architecture is a major part of the experience. N Architects worked with the industrial character of the building rather than against it: huge volume, high ceilings, long views across the room, and a controlled roughness that makes the place feel very Brooklyn. The food is more irregular. Everything is designed to be shared family-style, which makes dinner fun, particularly with a group. The Fish Sando is extraordinary: hake, butter roll, salsa verde, and somehow exactly the right proportions. The shishitos are excellent too. The Yaki Onigiri, on the other hand, were surprisingly dry and heavy. Not terrible, but not something I would order again. The sake selection is impressive. One of the pleasures here is asking the staff to bring a few different bottles to taste before choosing one. They have happily done this for us, and it can turn ordering sake into a great part of the dinner. What is strange is how inconsistent this experience can be. On different visits, with similarly sized groups and substantial bills, the range of sake offered for tasting has varied enormously. On our last visit, for reasons we never understood, someone apparently decided that we were on a budget and offered us only the least expensive options. We eventually found one we liked, so no harm done, but it was a peculiar assumption to make. Then there is the Rule of Thirds problem. We were a party of three, but throughout the meal the service repeatedly behaved as though we were a party of two. For the sake tasting, two glasses arrived. Dessert was shared, but only two spoons appeared. We pointed it out several times, yet somehow it kept happening. It was annoying for all of us and particularly uncomfortable for the third person, who understandably began to feel singled out. Perhaps it was an unusually off night. But after our last dinner, it has been renamed as the Rule of Neglecting the Third.
