The food here is always delicious! The sushi and sashimi combo is worth the price and super fresh. The tonkatsu is always a good choice and cooked crispy. They give big portions for the soba noodles and the dipping sauce is seasoned perfectly. Service may be a bit slow, but everyone is kind and the food is worth the wait!

Best sashimi I’ve ever had. Wonderful, friendly service. This is worth the trip to Port Washington area if you’re staying in the NYC area. It’s right off the LIRR so it’s walkable from the train station.

By far the best traditional Japanese spot in the area. Excellent service, tasty food. We usually get sushi but today ordered fried oysters and fried tempera to start with. Highly recommended.

Simple yet so good. I can definitely taste the difference in their fish here vs other Japanese sushi places. The ambience is not fancy, it’s casual and relaxing and the food was so good. I had their sashimi and sushi combo platter plus the steamed egg. Everything was perfection. Will def come back again

It is one of the few authentic Japanese restaurants in Long Island. Some of the reviewers here have not been to Japan I have. As well as most of the top Japanese restaurants in NYC and the country. some of the reviewers are used to cheap sushi from other ethnicities pretending to be Japanese.

I was very excited to try this place since it had some many good reviews. Maybe it was an off night for the restaurant. We ordered the gyoza appetizer it was excellent but are main dishes were average at best. The sushi was cut too thick in my opinion and I was not impressed with the toro. The service was good and they have us some complimentary fruit.

Yamaguchi does a great job of handling massive take out orders and servicing dining customers. Though sushi service can be slow at times but the service itself is amazing. The fish is top-notch and their rice is very well seasoned and moist. The place serves chef’s special and that’s the best to get in my opinion. Cooked food is pretty good as well especially their egg (tamago), which might be the best one around. Recommend calling ahead for weekend reservations.

2022.03 nice place to dine. A classic Japanese restaurant environment. Omakase must try. Reasonable price with uni, amiebi, lobster, scallop, and lot of toro. The appetizer is really good, we have the eggplant, soft and tender with believe grounded fish stuffing With light sauce. Not noisy at all. Service is excellent and prompt.

It’s a great place the omaskase is great if you can afford it, haha. It’s pricey but it’s good traditional Japanese food. They have Cantonese, Mandarin, and Japanese(the owners and some employees) speakers here as well. Usually full after 6 pm, so make sure you come earlier or ask for reservations. I’ve been coming here since 2018. They used to give free fruit in the end, but they charge for it now. Inflation issues. They have always treated the kids to free chocolate pocky at the end of the meal.
