Watawa Sushi

Absolutely outstanding experience. From the moment you walk in, everything feels right: great location, perfect temperature, and a beautiful interior that’s elegant and welcoming ideal for special occasions like birthdays or anniversaries. The food is exceptional. The sushi shows real expertise, freshness, and excellent presentation. The chicken and meat dishes are equally impressive, prepared with precision and deep respect for Japanese cuisine. The customer service is outstanding: attentive, professional, and genuinely kind. Overall, the experience is so well done that it truly feels like being in Japan. Highly recommended. 🍣🇯🇵

Watawa is really a great local sushi spot that everyone clearly knows about. It keeps busy throughout the night with a continuous flow of people dining in and picking-up takeout orders. The portion sizes are much larger than other places and very easy to share. We ordered sushi and sashimi for 2 and it was plenty for the three of us. They have a full bar plus speciality drinks. We all opted for the saketini. The servers work in conjunction with one another so there is always someone around if you need anything. It features multiple seating areas to choose from. It's great for large parties as well as an intimate date night if you are able to score a table around the water pond. Reservations are not required unless you are a party of 5 or more.

Found this gem randomly while craving sushi. Definitely a spot we’d like to visit again. The atmosphere felt really welcoming, you could tell some guests were regulars there and it became evident why once we tried the crispy rice. The first bite was truly an orgasmic burst of flavor! The ginger margarita was good as well!

Never knew this place existed in Astoria , beautiful ambiance for a date night !! This is the SUSHI spot , if you need a high end one in Queens !! Now on to the food , everything was delicious. Definitely try the colorful sushi just ask , I forgot the name . But I remembered the glazed Steak was so good.

A friend of mine recommended this place to celebrate my birthday, so I went to Watawa Sushi and it was a great location to celebrate. Very friendly staff, Sushi is to die for and they have plenty of drinks options. The menu is extremely good and complete with multiple options to choose from. If you are a sushi lover like me, please give it a try. If you are in the Astoria area you won’t regret. I am definitely returning for more yummy sushi!
