New York Long Island | Japanese Restaurant with Amazing Ambiance (2)๐
๐ฉโ๐ณ Service: The waitress was very friendly, but there's one thing to note: their hot tea (genmaicha) is charged per person, and this wasn't mentioned before ordering, which is a minor point deduction. ๐ฝ Dishes: We ordered three appetizers, a sashimi platter, and a sushi roll. โ Fried Soft-Shell Crab & Toro Tartar: Tasty and fresh ingredients, but the portions are relatively small, and the prices are a bit higher compared to other Japanese restaurants on Long Island. โ Crispy Rice with Creamy Spicy Sauce: This dish is quite unique. The crispy rice with a soft inside and the slightly spicy creamy sauce create a rich texture. Highly recommend giving it a try! โ Sashimi & Sushi: The freshness is on point, but the overall taste is pretty standard, without many standout highlights. ๐ฐ Value for Money: Overall, the restaurant scores high on ambiance and atmosphere, but the food value is relatively average. If you prioritize the food itself, I personally recommend Dozo Dozo in Woodbury, Long Island. It offers more reasonable prices and better taste. However, this place is mostly frequented by locals, and it gets quite busy on Friday nights. If you plan to visit, remember to make a reservation in advance. They also have an omakase menu, priced at $120 and $150! 1162 Willis Ave, Albertson, NY 11507 #LongIslandNYFood #WhatToEatInNY ๐๐ข
