Mikihana Sushi & Poke — Restaurant in New York

Walking in, the restaurant seems to have a modern feel. It is quite beautiful and bright and extremely clean. The waitress was polite and the food came fast. I ordered five California Rolls and asked for fish eggs. Unfortunately they do not have fish eggs which is common among sushi restaurants. The food was not too bad, but was not memorable. The imitation crab was my least favorite part of the sushi, at other sushi restaurants at least the crab tastes like crab, this just tasted like sweet squishy candy. The waitress did not check on us throughout the meal, nor did she check on us after another waiter took away our plates. My friend and i after a few minutes decided to time on a timer how long it took to get the check, it took just about ten minutes and that was only because we ended up flagging down a different waiter, not the one who seated us and brought us our drinks and food. To me this was ridiculous because there was not another customer the entire time we were there. I also found it very unprofessional of our waitress to be on her cell phone up front as we sat and stared at her waiting for a check.The experience was not terrible but in the future i would not choose to go...

I have to say, I’ve never had an experience like this — it was honestly on another level. From the second I stepped through the door, I felt an incredible sense of warmth and genuine hospitality that’s so hard to find these days. The staff made me feel like family, attentive and kind in a way that really stuck with me. The atmosphere was absolutely perfect — cozy yet vibrant, with a true Japanese feel that was somehow both authentic and totally welcoming.

But the food — wow. I’m still thinking about it. Every single dish was a masterpiece: fresh, beautifully plated, and exploding with rich, layered flavors that were so clearly crafted with skill and love. You could taste the quality of the ingredients and the passion behind every bite. Everything came out quickly, hot, and perfect, like they knew exactly what I was craving before I even said a word.

If you’re looking for authentic kosher Japanese cuisine, you need to come here. This isn’t just a meal; it’s an experience that will stay with you long after you leave. It completely blew me away and raised the bar for what great dining should be. I can’t wait to come back — this place...

Ordered takeout for sushi and sashimi. Very disappointed. First of all, we ordered two platters (party platter and 14pc sashimi platter) but they delivered separately because they forgot about one. They called and explained, which is fine but the second platter arrived without any bag. It didn’t seem sanitary arriving with just the platter. The sushi and sashimi were really mediocre and the portions were super small for its price. The rice and sushi had no tastes. Really had to rely on soy sauce for the taste. The first online order will get 20% off. But I wouldn’t come back for takeout or dine in considering the food were not up to standard.

*Correction: I typed the wrong number for the sashimi platter. It should be 14pc not 17pc. It doesn't take away the fact the the second platter was delivered without a bag. It arrived with just the platter and again it doesn't...
