"Very sweet little place run by husband and wife. Small sushi bar and a couple of tables. Front of restaurant full of stuff they use in summer sidewalk weather which is a little strange. Food very good. Fish very fresh. Service very attentive. A little oddball but worth visiting."

"There is no better quality sushi available in New York City. On top of that, Jun and Shoko’s warm and cheerful hospitality will make you feel as if you’re amongst long time friends. I recommend the omakase sets to sample Jun’s best pieces. The ikura (served atop scallop instead of rice) and aka uni are standouts of the nigiri. Octopus tempura is special as well. The decor is homey, as they use much of the interior space for storage of kitchen supplies."

"I'm Japanese Really really great restaurant!!!!! The sushi was very fresh and delicious!!(*^^*) The atmosphere of the restaurant and the feeling of Japan, and most of all, the people in the restaurant were very very nice!!! We will definitely visit again! You will not regret going here."

"Was looking for a quick meal with my bestie and her daughter on the upper east/west side and found this place! It’s a small, no frills, Japanese restaurant run by a cute Japanese couple! We ordered chawanmushi, yellowtail collar, omakase sushi, tempura udon, miso black cod, teriyaki salmon, and green tea ice cream. A very satisfying meal indeed."

"Immaculate sushi dinner. The fish was fresh and absolutely perfectly prepared. The ambience was very intimate, only 4 spots at the sushi bar. Loved the owners who were warm and friendly. It was my sister’s first experience with sushi and FISH! And she LOVED it. We will be back to this neighborhood gem. Thank you very much!!"
