This place is so good! The sushi is always fresh and delicious. Get the Spider roll , you won't regret it. The Pauline roll is also great and Spicy Crab - off the hook! Do it.

Stephanie Gallis

The Sea color roll was DELISH !!! The Bumble bee roll and Irine roll also two great choices. The Irine roll you get a different filling with each roll because of the multi seafood choices they add.

George Spartan

Some of the finest sushi on the planet and I travel a lot! Great for family, great for a date, but not great to find a mate. @GeorgeSpartan

Love Watawa—it's my favorite sushi place in the area & go-to dinner spot. Top picks: the wasabi shumai , garlic or miso Chilean sea bass , Park Avenue roll, Bumble Bee roll , sashimi , and hot sake .

Neal Joseph

The fish sourcing is superb. Top quality sashimi - ask about what fish they have that day that are not on the menu (sea bream and jack from Japan today were exceptional).

Jackie C

Amazing place for date night or even casual lunch with friends. Lunch specials are amazing. Love the sushi entrees, so much food!!

DailyCandy

Don’t let the electronic music and LCD lights distract you. Instead, focus on inventive rolls like the Wasabi (bursting with four types of caviar ) and the Humble Bee (topped with mango ).

Kathleen Vargas

It's a perfect place to talk and enjoy really good sushi ! Love their drinks and definitely would be back

Susan Gross

Best sushi in Astoria ! Best and friendliest service . Super fresh. Best Philadelphia roll in the city . It includes salmon , cream cheese , avocado and cucumber ! Yum!

Michelle Toubali

This is my favorite sushi place anywhere, including manhattan . Spicy tuna is to die for!! Beef negamaki is great, and most of the rolls- we love the volcano roll .

Match Thisfly

Busy, dark and popular neighborhood spot . Creative menu. Sit at the sushi bar ! You can ask the chefs about everything they are making.

Frank  Valletutti

Large place, comfortable , clean with street side seating. Get the Tempura appetizers , chicken/beef Teriyaki and terrific iced tea .

Elizabeth Tucker

Best sushi you can get in all of NYC - that includes the freshness, the price AND the service. Hands-down, I'd bring anyone from Manhattan to Astoria for this experience. Google will say the same! Read more

Andrea

Great price and awesome food! Very pleasant environment also!

RJ Livingston

One of my favorite restaurants in all of NYC!! Fresh fresh delicious sushi ! I always go for the sushi combo .

Tony Xerri

The original home of the Spicy Crab Roll . Get the Pauline or Dynamite rolls because they are guaranteed to shatter your universe . The expansion is taking a bit long though...

Joe Nycalive

Get the hot sake all night. I promise by the time you leave to your next location you will have the time of your life.

Sandra Baez

Pauline roll is always a must for me.. shrimp tempura topped with spicy crab meat- hello, best of both worlds!

Edmund O'Neill

Amazing seared tuna appetizer , and inventive cocktails .

Sean Fleming

The dynamite roll is magic. Plus try the American Dream roll, it's not on the menu anymore (secret menu item ).

Natalia U

Super tasty sushi and nice price!

Tony Xerri

Thank God theyre back! New decor, new rolls, and ventillation! Same awesome staff too! Get the new Sea Color Roll , total life changer!!!

Billy Keenly

They put a lot of ginger dressing on their salad which I like. Sushi and Sashimi for Two for $42 is a great deal.

Leah Mababangloob

Yummiest japanese food in Astoria! Make sure you order the soft shell crab roll !

Stacy Fiorentinos

The spicy tuna with caviar on top is divine as is the shrimp tempura roll and the bumble bee.

The lunch specials have many options and affordable . Can't go wrong with those!
