Listen I love food but youll hate this place. Japanese its not! We were first seated, waitress brings the water and spills it. Close call. Ordered soft shell crabs (oh hell NO!) It looked like frog legs but fishy. Pork Donburi...no.no..no! Safer with bento box, which is what I ordered. Salmon teriyaki it was ok....lets just say its not owned by Japanese, which makes sense especially with cleanliness. Yikes!
Although it is currently closed due to the state of the City. I enjoyed the whole experience of dining there. The food was exquisite, the staff were so polite and helpful, and the entire atmosphere was so pleasant! I can not wait until it opens once again, so my bestfriend and I can enjoy it once again! (Sorry for the late review, I just found these pics in my gallery lol)
Wonderful sushi! But, the wait time was very long. I would not recommend stopping by if you have less than an hour to sit and wait on your sushi. That being said, the chef took his time, and the end product was some of the best I had ever had! I went to Azuki twice during my week long trip! The prices were very fair, the atmosphere was quiet and serious.
A breath of fresh airTo step out of the busy city and into this quiet restaurant for dinner was an experience in itself.Then the sushi came and it was incredible. I had 2 different orders of sushi and 2 specialty rolls. I usually save the best for last but everything I ordered was the best I’ve ever had.I was visiting New York and will definitely go back
Pretty standard sushi, but thats not an insult; this isnt a high end sushi joint. Good prices for the area especially with the complementary saki.Environment was nice, easily carried out conversations. And the wait staff were good to us. Would certainly eat here again.
Server tired to make my husband and I tip him more. The service was bad , he kept sitting in the back playing on his phone, the food was ok, and it was empty. So guess what we will tip you what we want and he did not like that. Honestly I should have just took the tip back with how rude this place was. Manager didnt even step in to stop this non sense. We will never go back. I do not reccomend this place. Ive never been so disrespected in my whole life. It was my birthday dinner and it ruined our night.
Brought my daughter here for her 14th birthday on 12/30/17. Cozy space, nice ambience, good service but not amazing. Same for the food. Fresh and tasty but nothing special. No complaints but no real raves either for this place visit. Prices are fair. Wouldnt make a special trip into the city just to come here, but would definitely try them again.
I came to Azuki for their lunch special. The restaurant looks very clean and nice. I got their maki roll combo 2 and it has spicy tuna roll and yellow tail roll. It also comes with salad to start.Unfortunately, I was sitting waiting for my appetizer salad for over 15 minutes. They forgot about us until I reminded them about the missing salad. Then another long wait past, we got our sushi/entree finally. The maki was alright. It is fine for the area but it is not impressive in any sort of way.I think there are better places to get sushi lunch in the area and without the long wait.
I called to get a delivery, I have limited time for lunch (which is partly why I wanted it delivered). I waited over 40 minutes for two tuna rolls. Had to call them back. They told me first of all that I hadnt ordered, then they told me they thought it was a pick up (why would you take my address for a pick up), then they claimed they were closed... Pretty sad excuses for ruing my lunch, and totally unprofessional. Now I have to go without lunch. Thanks so much....
Toro was kept well beyond it should so had to send it back. Rolls were pretty solid but nothing to rave about. Hard to get the servers attention in a pretty empty restaurant. Ok to go if you’re in a pinch and need to find something in the area but nothing to rave about! Unlikely to return.
Stood for 5 minutes, waiting to be seated for lunch, with no one acknowledging me being there at all. There were open tables, and a woman right there at the register busy looking down, to even see the growing crowd of people waiting to be seated. In the end I just walked out.
This is not about the food... its about the delivery man. I was crossing the road today at 4:10pm at 37th street and 9th avenue. The chinese looking delivery man was speeding on is cycle road, he came to a have abrupt halt as he saw me crossing and started yelling ridiculous abuses across the street. I have never in my 6 years of living in NYC experienced such CRUDE behavior. Azuki I expected that you would hire people who deliver food not abuses at the very top of their lungs.

2022-03-02It’s truly impossible to find a decent restaurant anywhere near Madison Square Garden. Most of the restaurants either serve fast food or bad food. This was one of the best sushi places anywhere in NYC. Fish was incredibly fresh, every roll and appetizer was delicious and the service was wonderful. I would absolutely come again and again! Thank you

2022-05-17Very nice staff but the quality of food is very subpar for the price. Ive had better grocery store sushi. The katsu is not crispy enough. The oyakodon was pretty soggy and overly salted. The rice in the bento box is shamefully bad. I gave this place a bunch of chances because it is so close to my office but no more :/.

2019-10-21Average Japanese food but with a price tag. The place is comfortable and nicely decorated but the service did not match. There was only one server on a Thursday dinner so service was slow.

2019-10-20Not a bad place that serves Japanese cuisine. Service was poor though on that day.. Only 1 wait staff for the entire restaurant. The chicken katsu don was really soggy.

2022-05-09Always fast, always delicious and never disappoints. I love ordering from here. I never have to worry if my order will be on time or right because their service is always perfect.
