Consistently tasty sushi. Great lunch specials. I especially like the spicy salmon and yellowtail scallion. Avoid peanut avocado roll, though - it's sugary and overly sweet!

Tenzan sister restaurant of Guzan in 86th and 3rd ave. The taste is very similar to Guzan. Chicken Yakiudon was cooked perfectly. The price of salmon teriyaki is cheaper than beef teriyaki. Weird.

Amazing lunch special. The nabe yaki udon is a dream. Nice, clean uncomplicated sushi. Also a good place to watch sports at the bar.

Tenzan has one of the better ambiences for a sushi spot. Affordable three roll lunch special. At night this place is quite vibrant.

Healthy roll with mango on top and seaweed on top is unique and very tasty. I usually get it together with sake roll, which is spicy crunchy salmon.

Try the Double Taste Roll - Chopped white tuna, tempura flakes, scallions wrapped with salmon, tuna and ikura

All dishes are solid. I love how this place doesn't pack the sushi rolls with rice. Definitely key.

Sake & sushi @ the bar while watching sports on their 3 huge plasma screens is the way to go!

Peanut avocado roll is amazing. Salmon avacado crunchy is very good.

Sweet potato tempura and peanut avocado rolls are excellent and I'm not even vegetarian.

The rolls come in massive pieces, so filling, and all the employees have kinda funny and entertaining voices.

Good Special Rolls.

Very fresh sushi. Try Uni, it's sublime.
Roger SchonfeldApril 20, 2013
Food is great. But make sure they've refilled the soap dispenser before washing your hands - that seems to be where they cut corners. Service mediocre.
Jessica StarkJanuary 25, 2013
Crunchy spicy tuna roll is fab!

The chirashi is beautiful and tasty. Loving the layout.

Nigori Sake is the best cold sake

Shumai is good! Rolls just ok. Teriaki beef way too sweet. Prices are HIGH! Ambience is bad. Service ok.
C PAugust 3, 2015
Having read reviews I wanted to give it a try. Was disappointed. Service not focused and food mediocre. I'd give less than 7.8 rating as shown on 4square. Sorry can't recommend

Sashimi regular and ask for a bowl of sushi rice on the side. Cheaper and more fish than Chirashi.

The spicy like roll is my favorite, so far.
