WANO New York

Not crowded for a weekday lunch. Bara chirashi - fish tasted very fresh. Portion is on the smallish side for the price. Rice is well-seasoned and I enjoyed the spice topping. Lunch set comes with miso soup, salad and pickles. Wasabi tastes authentic. Service was okay and by Japanese waitstaff. Unfortunately, she cleared the dish before I was done and I felt a little rushed. Ambience was okay. My seating was not very comfortable on the regular table. Felt a little too open yet dim.

We walked in feeling good — the atmosphere was lovely, and I was looking forward to the meal. But while eating, I found a long string/net-like piece caught on my chopsticks from inside the rice. I told the staff, and she took the bowl without a word. She later returned and simply asked if I wanted a new dish, with no explanation or apology. But after finding that foreign object in my food, I couldn’t continue eating. When I declined, she said it would be taken off the bill and walked away. Hygiene is extremely important in any restaurant, especially in one that serves raw fish. Finding a foreign object inside the rice was unfortunate, but the way it was handled afterward felt even more inappropriate. Unfortunately, the experience left a poor impression. I hope similar situations are han

Love this place. Best goyza I’ve ever had! Atmosphere is very cool. Next time I’ll try sitting at the bar so I can watch the chef!

I absolutely love this place! It's so cozy, and the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. The food is absolutely delicious—I enjoyed every moment here!

The cod was well-seasoned and tender, and I really liked it! 🙌 However, I regret not trusting our friend Michael's review. He said, “I spent $60 for 8 pieces of low-quality sushi drowned in soy sauce. It was insanely overpriced, and I will not return.” and he was right…
