    This is a real neighborhood staple! Go outside and you'll frequently find Jeffrey, the head sushi chef, making friends. Momo is on our list of Top 10 Restaurants in Bushwick. Read more

    Based on all the recommendations I tried the Pork Betty... if you go to this restaurant and don't try this, it will be considered a sin! So nice. If you are hesitant don't be! Awesome service too :)

    Get the Oyako roll. A cute play on the traditional Japanese dish, it's salmon and salmon eggs and was one of the more interesting kinds of nontraditional sushi I've had in a while.

    The Pork Betty was the best pork belly I've ever had. The sushi in general was fantastic. Go here. Eat something. Be happy.

    Per popular suggestion, we requested the Pork Betty & sushi bombs. Though not exactly mind blowing, def delicious and the sushi rice may be the best I've ever tasted. Great quality and service!

    Sushi Bombs: These adorable little guys are technically called “temari.” We’re partial to the Spicy Mc Bomb, with tuna, cucumber, spicy mayo and katafi. Read more

    Party bomb, Pork Betty and fried chicken. All delicious. Great presentation and service. Oh and that cucumber soda is also low key bomb.

    Can get expensive but all the sushi is great, the ramen is so-so and the sake selection is really good

    This place is delicious. Get the whole live uni. It's like sea candy, and comes with a stylish spikey souvenir.

    The sushi "bombs' are freakishly good versions of sashimi. The Spicy bomb with tuna, spicy mayor, and fried phyllo dough is required eating.
  • Raina B.
    Absolutely amazing food, service, and atmosphere here! A small place you wouldnt think to stop, but completely worth it. Make sure to try their 'bombs': they're the bomb.

    So camouflaged that it took me quite long to actually find it. Sushi was fresh, service was quick, beer was cold. An ideal lunch in Bushwick...

    Love their tasting menu (it starts at only $65) and you can order off the menu if you want something quicker / less expensive.

    Want to cry from happiness. The owner, Phillip, was my server at my first bozu trip and I have spent two years trying to find the "new restaurant he was opening". Thank god. Go. Omikase. Seriously.

    Good place, if you get a table. It is super fast once you sit down, try the bun and the dessert. Skip the soup

    Everything here is delicious, and you should definitely get some sushi. But the pork chop is the unsung hero of this menu.

    A really fun and inexpensive place to have dinner with friends. We’ve extolled the virtues of the sushi, but the Momo Salad shouldn’t be overlooked!

    A new restaurant in Bogart St (Bushwick) means that something cool is going on inside. The menu is between traditional japanese and creative stuff. $$

    The spicy tuna maki roll is aces, but for a real treat, go for the temaki hand roll. Same price, but way more fun to eat.

    Hands down best Pork Belly I've had in the city (that's right, I said it). Also, get the Party Bomb, awesome selection of sushi's

    Tofu salad was incredible. House made tofu almost tasted like mozzarella. Don't skip the spicy scallop or shrimp hand roll.

    tuna tartare w/ quail egg gunkan, scallop handroll, chicken karaage, and scallop miso butter. 👌🏽 skip the bombs, better things on the menu.

    communal tables in a converted garage. feels like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles meets Okinawa which I enjoy. good fish, cool servers. $ only. it's expensive, but at least the plates are small.

    Gyoza is delicious, & general presentation sharp- details attended to. Love the three soy & wasabi cups with tiny spoons. The long wooden tables are beautiful. Only the lighting is a bit abrasive.

    The Spicy McBomb is amazing and so is the Momo salad. The atmosphere is definitely cool but the acoustics are God awful. Not a good place if you're looking for an intimate dinner.

    If they have the côtes de crème with wild berries and hazelnut purée, you must get it for dessert.

    The tofu in their Tofu Salad has nearly a cream cheese texture to it. Probably the most interesting tofu I've had in New York.
