“ After shopping around Times Square i randomly looked up sushi bars in the area to go try and this was the first one that popped up. We didnt have a reservation but the staff were quick in accommodating us in the sushi bar which was perfect for my friend and i. First time coming in here and i can assure you it will not be the last. The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the rainbow roll, spicy tuna roll, and edamame. My friend ordered the wagyu sliders and shrimp tempura roll. All of it was great! The general manager, Chris, was very friendly and helpful. Cant wait to return. ”
“ This place is the place to be if you want delicious food, great mood, and fast service. The manager is such a friendly person, he goes around to make sure everything is running smoothly. This place has an eye for detail as the decoration makes you feel away from the city. Especially the DJ playing music to get you in the feels. All negative feelings fade away when eating from the food. I speak from experience, youll never forget coming to this place. Food is AMAZING!!!! ”
“ We arrived early and informed the hostess that we had tickets at the Lyric Theater for that evening. She was very sweet and assured us there would be no problems in being finished in time. We had no idea it would be happy hour! The HH menu offerings were perfect for a light dinner that got us on our way with plenty of time to spare. Highly recommend their lychee martini and all the sushi we ordered was excellent. ”

“ Visiting NYC with my son and bestie. We decided to grab sushi and went to RA as it was close to our hotel in Times Square. The food was delicious. The drinks were crafty and tasty. Our server, Nicole, was so sweet and helpful. She helped my vegetarian friend find safe choices on the menu, and was perfectly attentive. Somehow, she always knew when we needed something and appeared like a magic fairy. It was such a good experience that we will likely return before our trip is over. ”
