★★★★★ 5.0 Marline Chrysilla · Jan 2026

On our way to Boston, we were looking for a place to have dinner and randomly picked this restaurant — and everything was so good! The tempura roll was 100/10, the tom yum soup was also really delicious (my mom loved it so much). In the cold winter weather, the miso soup was especially comforting. The gyoza sauce was amazing too. We also ordered fried rice with chicken and steak, and it was really good. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I don't understand how this place has so many good reviews. I decided to try habachi from a new place... big mistake!! If you like green peppers and flavorless chicken this place is for you! The entire tray was peppers, not much chicken. I don't like green peppers so I was concerned the chicken was going to taste like it but shockingly, even though it looks like black pepper was used it tastes like boiled chicken with no seasoning. The rice seemed to have been premade and came cold, the California roll had a funny taste and to top it off there was plastic in my food.

The sushi was so filling. We went during lunch time and ate abundantly. The tea was slightly on the warm side but still quenched the thrist. Wasn't a fan of the salmon. it could have been slightly overcooked. The specialty sushi rolls are huge. Everything tasted fresh as well. I'm still a good solid meal and very thankful 🙏. Lastly, the place was extremely clear and nice-looking.

Excellent restaurant. A little out-of-the-way for the Albany crowd but well worth it. Easy parking. Handicap accessible. Very clean. Nicely laid out. Beautiful bar. Very large portions. Food was delicious. Real linens is a beautiful touch. Staff very accommodating to children. Very thoughtful on children portions. Delicious dessert. Large variety of foods. Look forward to going back.

I've visited this restaurant on many separate occasions since its opened and it's by far one of my favorite Asian food restaurants in the area. I don't get to go often since I live in MD, but whenever I'm up here to visit my boyfriend I always make sure to come here. The place is new but the food is delicious. The staff here that is composed of a wonderful family are very kind, amiable, and cordial every time we come to eat. The decor is classy and it has a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Sushi is my favorite food and I love the sushi they serve here - fresh and full if delightful flavor. Their cooked entrees however are just as excellent, and the portions and prices are very fair. I'm also a colossal fan of their sake; I have it every time I go there. I highly recommend this restaurant to any
