I visited New York over Labor Day weekend and, on a friend's recommendation, stopped by Tiger Sushi in Great Neck, Long Isalnd. Since it was Labor Day weekend, the restaurant was quiet, but the atmosphere was warm, and both the staff and chef welcomed us kindly. I chose one of the set menus based on the staff's suggestion, while my friend ordered the teriyaki salmon. We started with the spicy tuna with crispy rice as an appetizer, and the freshness of the tuna paired perfectly with the crispy rice, whetting our appetites. The main set menu arrived, which included four types of rolls and two pieces of sashimi. Each roll had a unique flavor, and the sashimi was excellent. The freshness of the fish was on another level, and every bite was delicious. I tried some of the teriyaki salmon my friend ordered, and I don’t think I’ve ever had grilled salmon that was so tender and flavorful. From appetizer to dessert, the whole course was delightful. This restaurant is definitely worth the long drive, and with such amazing flavors at a reasonable price, it was a great experience. It’s been two weeks, but the rich flavors of the food are still fresh in my mind, and it’s this craving that made me write this review. I'm glad to have found a must-visit spot whenever I come...
Read moreMy family and I celebrated my mother-in-law's birthday with a dinner for ten at Tiger Sushi in Great Neck today, and it was a truly spectacular experience!
We decided to keep things easy and celebratory by ordering three of the restaurant's party platter dishes to share. This was a fantastic decision. The quality was super across the board. Every piece of sushi, sashimi, and every roll was incredibly fresh and beautifully prepared. You could tell that the fish was of the highest grade, practically melting in your mouth.
The platters were not only generous in portion but also artfully arranged, making our table look incredibly festive. Even with our large group of ten, the three platters provided more than enough variety and food for everyone to enjoy their fill.
From start to finish, the food was the highlight—authentic, fresh, and exceptionally high quality. If you're looking for a special place to celebrate a milestone with a large group, or just want to enjoy some truly great Japanese cuisine, Tiger Sushi is highly recommended. It was the perfect meal for a perfect family...
Read moreMy favorite sushi spot has recently opened nearby. To celebrate the grand opening, I was pleasantly surprised with a refreshing Earl gray cocktail, which not only looked beautiful but also had a delightful taste. Being passionate about food, my companions and I ordered a variety of dishes. The salmon teriyaki was exceptionally tender, with a delicious sauce complemented by tasty side vegetables. While I've always favored the fire roll among the signature roll sets, I found the new addition, the tiger roll, equally enjoyable this time. Personally, I highly recommend the upgraded taste of the Temaki. Both the Sushi Deluxe and Omakase were fresh and tender, and the Bronzino Nigiri was quite good. Though the Ikura tasted slightly salty, it provided a refreshing touch. I refrained from drinking sake due to driving, but one of my friends couldn't stop praising its smoothness, ending up having three glasses of Born Gold. With numerous options available, today I'd like to particularly recommend the Tiger Roll...
