Not recommended
Very rushed service for lunch, even though no one was waiting for our table. Soup served with main dish. Food cold. Salmon teriyaki dry. Choice of two desserts came with our meal, and waiter brought one without asking. When we asked for the other dessert, he said they choose the dessert. The noise level is very high. Not a place for a relaxing meal and not a place to talk with friends.

One of the Best Japanese Restaurants in the city
I have tried many of NYC's Japanese restaurants and have found this one to be one of the best. The atmosphere is cozy and the food is extremely fresh and authentic. I would highly recommend doing the Omakase. They will work around your specific tastes and create a very memorable evening.

They've changes, and not for the better
I used to love this restaurant. Then they changed their menu, then the quality of the food went down. They went from a really good Japanese restaurant to yet another mediocre Japanese restaurant (something the neighborhood has quite enough of). It's really disappointing, because the place had been so good before the menu changes.

Best Japanese restaurant in the city
This is the best japanese restaurant in the city, proof is: you'll find only japanese customers. So all of you Americans, who usually spoil places where you go. Do all of us a favor: don't go there (Or if you go, don't be obnoxious, be discreet!)...Food is greater than great, service is...Japanese, diversity of dishes is beyond what you can imagine, and the atmosohere is... Japanese (great). Reserve if you want to be seated properly!

One of the best
I live down the street from Aburiya and frequent there often. The dishes are memorable and worth it. Among their best dishes include the salmon on houba leaf, cod with saikyo miso, and pork cheek. The chicken dish served with semi-raw egg is also good, although very heavy and filling. This restaurant is for those who appreciate authentic Japanese cuisine. If you think the prices are steep, just visit other 5 star restaurants. You will realize how reasonable Aburiya's prices are in comparison.

Too little and too expensive
I ordered a combincation sashimi - $30dish. Food came with a nice presentation, on ice. But slices are small and too little. Over all food quality is good, presentaion is nice service is great. but too expesive if you are hungry. Well, I guess I should go somewhere when I need to eat much.....value/price ratio is not great for me a big guy..

Super good!
The food at Aburiya is so good, price is also good. It's great that they have wide variety of dishes, so I never get bored. Really good quality!
