Kawaii Sushi

This has been on my bookmark list for awhile and finally decided to try it out when I recently had a hankering for sushi. It’s a small spot but nicely decorated. Cute for a sushi date as it is intimate and had low lighting. They have a 2 and 3 roll lunch special for fairly cheap. They also offer hibachi.
I ordered the boston roll, spicy shrimp roll, and spicy tuna roll. All were good. However, I must say this was the neatest Boston roll I have ever eaten lol. Most boston rolls have the inside spilling over the side that when you pick it up it falls apart, not this one though lol.
I also got a mango bubble tea, which was good.

Love the food. Perfect Valentine rolls for aroma tic evening. They are the only place around here that have bubble tea… that’s a plus! Would definitely recommend

I have ordered from this place twice for takeout. The spot is cozy and quaint. I try and get the lunch special as the price is good. IMO they have the best regular rolls. They put enough fresh fish and they have e just the right amount of rice. The rice is of good quality. My wife has tried there special rolls and she was a fan. This is my go to place for lunch check special rolls. They are a bit pricey otherwise but I’d still order here.

Kawaii meaning cute, is exactly what this restaurant stands for. I’ve been eating here for some time now. I am never disappointed. The food is always fresh and delicious. Staff is polite and on point. Keep it up kawaii!

First off let me start off with important part the food is good! Sushi is Freash and made well.
Now for everything else…
I have been going here once a week for the last 8 years. Again the food is really good. Years ago the staff stayed the same knew me by name and even gave me a %10 discount which was very nice and I always gave it back as a tip. At this point this place was a solid 5 star place.
Fast forward to 2015 I have not see the same server for more then a month I’m not sure why there is always knew ones many of them speak very little english some time communication is hard.
Today there was a new server again which seems to be the trend. I ordered a sushi deluxe. I usually substitute the spicy tuna for spicy salmon. As I go to pay the girl behind the counter tell me that’s an addition charge of $ 1? I told her politely I have come here for many years as a loyal customer and no one has ever charged my a $ 1 more for a roll that cost the same. After almost walking out with no food she told me she will wave the fee this time only… I have spent $ 1000’s of dollars and brought my customers there way.
Very insulting they have great sushi but I’m not in to playing games like this Howard beach has several other spot I think I’ll try.

The food is always good when we come here (we don’t get sushi however, so I cannot judge that). I love their fried ice cream!

Best sushi in area! 100% fast delivery! Always get shrimp tempura rock shrimp Tiffany roll and specials on board!

Good is excellent specially presentation
The only thing waiters keep rushing you with ordering … It’s better if you want sushi to seat at sushi bar instead of table

This place is cute! I called ahead on 4^th of july with a large group (11+ people) and they saved us a table and were super accommodating with moving in additional tables. Place is tiny so you can tell its not meant for huge groups. We ordered the samurai roll and sushi dinner (spicy tuna roll w. nigiri) and while the pieces and nigiri were fairly small, it was yummy sushi. I also really like the seasons appetizer where you can pick 2 out of four seasons (basically fish + special sauce) on spoons to try!

Horrible service they are also racist don’t order delivery from here I found a roach on my food!

First of all, the food was ok. Good presentation. The price is acceptable. Only one thing is server english knowledge and attitude. We went there and had dining also order shrimp tempura to go. The lady1(more white skin Chinese) replied shrimp tempura roll to go right? I said to hers «no just shrimp tempura to go, ok? Then 5 mins later I want to confirmed and paid my bill. I called other girl2 who is more server attitude. I tell hers to make sure it was not tempura roll. After that the roll came with other lady1(more white skin). I said it is wrong. My aunt said to girl2 «it was ok, she can take it» she said it was ok. The food will come soon. Nonetheless lady1 walk away to cashier and throw the food on the table that was very aggressive. I just curious we pulled gratuity 18% for what when I was at home. Lady1 was not even say anything when we said thank you to hers.
If lady1 worked by herself I ll give 10% and give 1 star out of 5.
If only girl2 18% with 3−4star.

Food is great but staff is very rude. I will not order from kawaii never again had many bad experiences with the staff.

Great neighborhood spot! Fish is always fresh, service is descent. The rock shrimp is a must have.

Just had the Monster Roll and Godzilla roll and both were really amazing. Godzilla roll included spicy tuna, crunch pieces and Avocado on top. Very top quality roll for $ 10.50. The Monster roll is a mango special. It included tuna, avocado, cream cheese roll with dice mango and fresh wasabi honey sauce on top. It cost $ 10.50 as well. Also, got the green Salad and miso soup ($ 2.25). It included tofu, scallion and seaweed. Great service also late last night.

My first choice if I want Japanese and don’t want to go far. I usually get delivery from them but I have eaten there a few times. Parking is easy as it’s in a strip mall. The Tonkatsu is good and so are the Bento Boxes. Delivery is always quick.

I was at this restaurant a couple of days ago, like always food and service was good. The lion king roll was amazing, the Kani salad is my fave ;)

This place is fantastic. Good prices and delicious food. The sauce that comes with the tempura is heavenly. I usually get the hibachi fried rice, salad with ginger sauce, cucumber avocado rolls and the spring rolls (amazing). Definitely recommend it.

This is my neighborhood japanese spot. I come here if I have a lazy hankering for sushi or, more usual, a hankering for pad thai (yes pad thai at the sushi spot). Their food is fresh tasting and while it’s the usual cost for japanese, I keep coming back. There isn’t much that great to eat in Howard Beach, IMO, so I take what I can get!
Oh if you like your pad thai sweet then don’t bother… but I don’t so I love theirs :)

LOVE THIS PLACE.
Seriously some of the best sushi in NYC. Their rock shrimp is the bet I’ve had. I come here at least once a month. I also love their clam miso! Everything is always fresh, the place is clean and the staff is pretty friendly.

I ordered take out and twenty minutes later the food arrived. Loved that because I was super hungry!
Everything was perfectly packaged and wrapped up well. The California salad was fresh with lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, avocado, and sweet carrot dressing! Yum! The miso soup was a huge serving. I had the 3 roll combo for $ 13.50 and chose two shrimp tempura rolls and one spicy shrimp roll. All done very well!
I will definitely order take out from them again!
