Love Saketumi! My fav sushi and they are so nice and accommodating. I can’t eat tuna due to pregnancy/breastfeeding and they always switch tuna out to salmon for me!

Stopped by for a solo quick bite before an event in the neighborhood. The waitstaff were super warm and attentive. Since it was the day before LNY, they wished me a happy new year! I had the dinner bento w. beef negimaki and tofu teriyaki. The portion size is large.

On a separate note, they really care for their customers. They even went out of their way to call a cab for a regular who had a little too much to drink.

Had a wonderful Christmas dinner here! Everything was delicious, but we were especially impressed with the grilled Hamachi Kama. It was so delicious and reasonably priced.

Such good food and good people!!!

Diner Review №9

The service was incredibly disappointing. The waitress was rude and pushy about the tip, which made the entire experience unpleasant.

Got food poisoning and have had diarrhea since thursday. It’s now saturday and my stomach has still not recovered. The raw scallops were probably not fresh, never going back again.

Wow! Found this place just walking by and decided to get lunch here. The food was so delicious l. I ordered the sweet potato tempura roll, veggie Gyozas, and Teriyaki tofu/veggies platter. Everything was so flavorful. And the price for all these items was amazing! Highly recommend.

I’ve been coming here for years, and have tried a good part of the menu. The food is great and the service is even better. Highly recommend.

Diner Review №25

Amazing experience! ⭐😁

Diner Review №26

Very good food, service is always straight forward nice place.

Diner Review №27

Chinese food*
Be aware that thai food here doesn't taste like it's thai, different spices, different texture. If you want real Thai or Malasian go somewhere else.

Diner Review №28

Service is fast and attentive, but the food is just disgusting. I ordered 7 dishes, only Tom-yum was more or less edible. Fish is NOT fresh, everything is fried in old oil, sushi is disgusting. It's been 5 hours after visiting, my stomach hurts, I feel nauseous and have heartburn. I fell for the good reviews, I don't know who leaves them. I haven't tried anything worse.

Diner Review №29

Uczta dla podniebienia i długo wspominana wysoka jakość obslugi.
Bistro oferuje sushi przygotowywane w otwartej kuchni. Ponadto dania kuchni tajskiej. Wybornie smakują pierogi, sushi z łososiem, a także pad taj z kurczakiem i mango.
Miejsce godne uwagi w trakcie spacerów po Brooklińskich ulicach.

Diner Review №34

Delicious sushi with fast service and amazing prices! I was surprised to see the pricing, but food was great. Miso soup was only $2.5 and it was very tasty.

Diner Review №35

The best sushi in the city!
Absolutely amazing friendly service, feels like you know people all your life.

Diner Review №36

Terrible service. I ordered a chicken rice and after a long wait I'm served with shrimp rice (more expensive). I told the waitress and she argued with me. Seems language barrier issue she didn't understand my order. Then had to wait longer and got the chicken rice with a very suspicious "chicken" that looked anything but chicken just like a cheap Chinese restaurant. I don't recommend this place nor this customer service.
Also roaches walking on the floor and food on the floor. Pretty disgusting. Never going back there.

We ate on the back patio and had such a lovely experience! The staff was friendly and we had a great meal for pretty cheap. Walking distance from the bridge so it's a great date spot!

Diner Review №40

Wow, had such a wonderful meal here. The sushi deluxe option was filling, fresh, and VERY reasonably priced. The meal also came with complimentary fruit, salad, and pickled cucumbers - where would you ever get that. Service was top notch, the waitresses knew people by name and asked about their family. Clearly people keep coming back and I can see why. I stumbled in but I’ll definitely be back for some delicious and well priced sushi.

Diner Review №41

Unbeatable lunch special. We order here at least three times a week! Love Saketumi!!

Diner Review №42

Amazing, fresh, melt-in-your-mouth sushi, reasonably priced, too! Our lovely, relaxing lunch at the back courtyard was wonderful.

Diner Review №47

Went there on a quiet Monday afternoon. The hostess was very warm and accommodating and the food was delicious

Diner Review №48

Diner Review №49

Should be 3.5 stars. 0.5 stars for a cute fresh fruit desert surprise they added into our take out bag, a nice touch.
Cruspy duck salad was nothing like a picture on their order site, it is tempura duck pieces on a pillow of fresh pinach and greens. Quite chewy and not what expected.
Spicy sashimi appetizer was good (but not spicy) and came in the form of tuna and salmon stripes wrapped around smth looking like a tuna tartar. Inventive and not bad at all, but description was quite deceiving.
Seaweed salad on the contrary was spicier than usually in other places.
Mackerel sashimi was ok.
Pineapple fried rice with chicken was the only thing we really loved, lots of pineapple and chicken, very flavorful.
It was our 1st time ordering from this place so we enjoyed 10% off. The pickup was quick (20 min from order) and the lady at the counter was very polite.

Diner Review №50

I would highly recommend this place. Awesome food great service. Order the crispy duck in Thai sauce. Ask for extra sauce and the Tom KHA coconut chicken soup , was amazing. My friend order the general tso - really good and good spicy kick.

Diner Review №58

Worse thai iced tea, and the pineapple fried rice had three pieces of pineapple 😒

Diner Review №59

Good sushi. Not expensive. They should just make the menu more clear

Shrimp wasn’t cleaned. Bit into Tempura roll and noticed the tail at the end of the roll had black dots from the intestine tract (aka poop) not being removed. Immediately spit out the food and did my best not to vomit. Never again.

Diner Review №90

I recently dined at the sushi bistro, and while the food was undeniably fresh and delicious, I couldn't help but feel disappointed by the portion sizes. The bento box, in particular, was lacking; it didn't include any tempura, had only two pieces of shrimp shumai, and a mere four pieces of California Roll. The taste was great, but it left me feeling like I didn't quite get my money's worth. Despite the quality of the food and prompt service, the small portions left me wanting more.

Diner Review №91

Great find for well priced sushi specials. I ordered a 3 roll sushi combination
It was well prepared and perfect amount 4 lunch time.. Servers are very friendly.. Overall, great experience.

Diner Review №108

Very resonable priced sashimi.

Diner Review №109

Five stars. Good lunch sushi/sashimi plate. I loved the shrimp pad Thai lunch plate as well because it wasn't sweet like most pad Thai is these days. Great salad and soup as well.

LOVE THIS SPOT! The food is amazing, the service is quick and the space is perfect for a date. This is the best pad Thai I’ve had and I’m not a huge pad Thai fan but this one was delicious. We also had their sushi maki rolls and basil fried rice and the chef did not miss a beat! If you are in the area treat yourself to dinner! The prices are super affordable.

Diner Review №129

They know me by name! Great sushi

Diner Review №130

Underrated. Affordable, fresh sushi. Best patio sushi in NYC

I come here frequently. The service is excellent and very friendly. I eat a lot of appetizers and sushi. I especially like the vegetable and the steamed dumplings and the seafood gravy soup. I don't know anyone who has complained about this place.

Diner Review №138

Excellent neighborhood place for 🍣 and other Japanese food like teriyaki, udon, and tempura... Run by the nicest people...

Diner Review №139

I’ve been eating here 8 years, and This is hands down one of my favorite restaurants in nyc if not anywhere. I only dine in, as I love the staff, and it’s a 15 min walk from home. The Sashimi Deluxe is $20 for 18 pieces. The salmon tartare is a must for $9. Love their mushroom soup for $5. The blackened cod app is to die for. If I’m with friends, I’ll order the Brooklyn Bridge boat for $49. Great share. I eat a lot of sushi all over the world, and I’m not really a roll guy. But everything I’ve had here is great.

Best of the best Thailand and Asia food

Diner Review №147

As always, Saketumi is my favorite go-to Japanese Bistro downtown Brooklyn. My family & I decided to dine 2 nights in a row, yesterday and Tuesday night. I enjoy the freshness and enthusiasm in which they create their sushi rolls. The sashimi is always fresh & the presentation never disappoints.
I had the 18-piece sashimi platter with their "VCR roll" the first night, and Philadelphia, Dragon, eel and avocado, & (special) Saketumi rolls the second night.
5/5 for the food & service each time.
(Backyard dining is also now open.)
Shout out to the entire wait staff & sushi chefs. Much love to you all!!!

Diner Review №148

Best spot in Brooklyn Height. The service is always 5 Star+. The accommodate allergies that other places struggle with. They have a large and diverse menu, but someone deliver quality food every time. This is our go-to place for Sushi when we’re home.

Met a friend here for dinner on a Friday night. While busy, there was no wait for a table and that sat me before he arrived. We each had a Kirin Light, an entree, and he had a Diet Coke, and we only spent $28 each (split 50-50) before tip. I had the Sushi Combo C and upgraded my soup to Tom Yum Soup, both were delicious. My friend seemed to really enjoy the dish he ordered too. Would definitely recommend, and would happily return.

Diner Review №159

There was a hair in the food and then the sushi caused food poisoning .

Diner Review №164

Really great value! Fresh sushi at a fair price! A classic spot! Will be coming back again. 😊

Diner Review №165

Diner Review №166

Delicious bento and amazing sushi and sashimi! Great service and cozy ambience! Don’t miss out on the nigori sake (original flavor, not fruit flavored) either since they serve the best I’ve found so far outside of Japan. Also the food was so good I ate it all before I could take any photos… :)

This place is awesome. They have everything, sushi, Malaysian, Thai, and the value is awesome, the waitresses are great. The sashimi deluxe is on $20
We added a couple of pieces.
They serve sake and beer and wine

Diner Review №178

This is one of my favorite restaurants. Tasty and fresh sushi, great service, and decent prices. I recommend, I go there for lunch quite often and they are so welcoming and really strive for individualized service! Plus they have specialty rolls during lunch hour, 2 for
$15, which is a steal!

Recently, I felt like the quality of the sushi there has been declining. I ordered one thing and found a shrimp shell piece in a roll that’s not shrimp. I never went back after that. Still decent service but I just can’t stomach the idea of eating there again…

Diner Review №179

Diner Review №180

Great place. Very nice staff. Delicious food and very good value for money.

Diner Review №181

Vraiment bon, le bento est un bon rapport qualité prix, pas de chance pour nous cette soirée les serveuses étaient surmenées.

Diner Review №182

Quick,good quality food.

Diner Review №183

This place offered a nice respite from the urban jungle surrounding it. We came here with a friend who worked nearby and visited regularly. His recommendation was excellent.

The space was welcoming and the Asian vibe was relaxing. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable. They provided menus right away and even assisted my wife...when my wife accidentally mistook the bench continuing along the wall and ended up sitting on the floor. They helped her up and apologized profusely. They also provided warm sanitizer wipes and water almost immediately. Then hit tea at my wife's request.

My friend ordered the Spicy Mango Shrimp because the ladies next to us ordered it and we were intrigued by both its presentation and smell.

I ordered the Brooklyn Roll and a side of the BBQ Squid. My wife ordered the Cucumber roll.

All food was delicious and the space began to fill up as others were drawn to the delectable cuisine. 👍👍

Diner Review №184

An underwhelming experience. I got the spicy mango chicken plate, which was not spicy and had a flavorless, overly sweet sauce. The service was pretty brusky.

Diner Review №185

Cool little restaurant with a lot to choose from! I sat in the back courtyard and had a nice Beef Teriyaki Bento Box lunch. It was the perfect portion size for lunch and I was able to eat the entire meal and be full..
Friendly staff and atmosphere!
