It's in the BASEMENT, entrance to your left if facing Han Bat, which shares the same address. Crowded. Long waits. Quaint. Excellent, prompt service. Big menu. Nice selection of beers, sake, cocktails
Cute oasis in a midtown basement. Industrial/raw look. The lunch options are all around $10 and are delicious (salmon teriyaki, katzu curry). $20 happy hour sushi set.
Lunch is a good deal, $10 for a dish, rice, pickles and soup! The Saba Shioyaki is my go to. If you want a bowl, get the eel bowl. The natto here is solid if you're into that.
One of the best sushi I’ve ever eaten,great!The place isn’t very large, but it’s very nice and typical, and even if the line could be long it’s worth it!You have to try it, absolutely!
Ramen would not be the first choice for this place. Kimchiudon was very good as well as short rib. The crab balls was very creamy inside. But i still love this place and will be back for sure!
Katsu Don with chicken was super tasty. I devoured it fast. Cool atmosphere. You would not know it existed unless someone takes you. Also reasonable prices. Glad my friend brought me here.
Приехали спустя 2 года снова в любимейший ресторан в NY. Ничего не меняется) все безумно вкусно, недорого. Подача моментальная. Атмосфера шумногогорода. Очереди от 30 минут до часа. Обожаю это место!
Love that this place is hidden! Inexpensive, great food & service! Limited drink selection, but not sure if that’s just because I went during lunch time. Place gets crowded so you sit elbow to elbow.
The chikaten sushi was amazing!! If you come for lunch make sure you come early or the place will be packed. Hidden gem in between other Korean places so make sure you are entering the right one!
Delicious soba noodles wrapped in egg, and the natto kimchi were fantastic. The tuna in ponzu sauce was fresh, but the portion was a little small. The chickendonburi bowl was lacking in flavor.
Everything we ordered was really tasty and flavorful, from the kiwicocktail to the kimchi creamy udon, tuna tataki, cornskewer and sushi rolls. Would definitely return and try more!
Huge variety of small plates, creative cocktails (the kiwi was awesome!), and efficient service. The acoustics is an issue, it gets loud making it hard to have a conversation. Overall - great spot!
Freakin amazing katsudon, best I ever had. Unlike any other typical Japanese restaurant. I swear they put something in the rice! And super affordable too with a cool vibe.
Takoyaki (deep fried octopus balls) are somehow simultaneously tender, smooth, AND crunchy. Creamy kimchinoodles are an off-menu must have--they were gone before I could get a pic! Cute space too!!
This place is very authentic and modern. Really nice atmosphere complemented by friendly Japanese staff. Everything is great here. Get the salmon avo roll!
A cozy new izakaya in midtown. Decent Japanese tapas dishes- had tako kara, tako yaki, beef ramen, odengsoup. Food is not exceptionally amazing, but good place for bites over drinks w good company!
You can use Yelp to join the waitlist and see your live wait time without showing up at the restaurant. Friday-Saturday evenings have 60-90 mins wait so plan accordingly.
Solo hay 4 vinos en la lista pero todos a buenos precios. Escoge el Pinot Grigio que es un poco más versátil para combinar con las deliciosas tapas japonesas. Buen lugar para hacer catch up con amigos
Adorable underground Japanese spot with a wide selection of options (sushi, ramen, teriyaki, etc.) and FAST service. Apparently it's a jazz club too?? Ssshh don't spoil the secret.
Fun space. It's a loud room so don't come here for an intimate meal. Come here to eat and hang! 2 bottles of Sake and food for 3 hungry folk cost us 125.00 with tip. Money well spent!
Restaurante maravilhoso! Comida, bebida, atendimento... Nada deixa a desejar. Não parece ser um lugar turístico, havia muitos locais e asiáticos quando fomos. O sake da casa é ótimo!
A tutti gli italiani in visita: provate il gusto e il fascino dell'autenticocurry giapponese! Il posto inoltre è davvero caratteristico. Buonissimo anche il pesce!
Noisy, popular little basementrestaurant with a great atmosphere very reminiscent of Japan. Large, affordable menu, and great drinks choices including frozen Kirin.
No sushi during lunch till next month 😔 and make sure you bring cash because it's cash only during lunch! Love the atmosphere, such a cute little Japanese place! The servers are cute and nice!
#1 this place is price for frequent returns. ~$10/substantial dish. Salmon salad excellent and tonkatsu ramen was just ok (egg complete hard boiled, not marinated). I’ll be back many times.
Loved Loved Loved the food here. The best Deep Fried Octopus and Ramen. Its a bit noisy since the tables are a bit too close together. But the food makes up for the noise.
Excelente opción para comer, y beber cerveza en la hora feliz. El lugar está en un sótano, la entrada es por una pequeña puerta, no se confundan! Busquen el nombre MEW
