Great sushi and great value
I have frequented Kouzan regularly since it opened and am always pleased with the quality of the sushi and the pleasant atmosphere and good service. The roll combinations are interesting and a good value. I highly recommend it.

Bad
I very much agree with Pizzabagel and zanna; the sushi was bad. Mushy, tasted old. So many Upper West Siders have no taste and can't tell the difference between awesome, decent, and poor sushi. It's pathetic that people will pay restaurant prices so indiscriminately. If you cant tell the difference, why are you paying $20 for it?

Fantastic Sushi
Kouzan is a delightful restaurant to go to with family or friends. Great Food, great service...Kouzan is truly terrific. Whenever my son returns home from college, it's the one restaurant that we always go to.

The most disappointing sushi ever
I just received my delivery.The pepper tuna is average, the sushi is old and has an unappetizing taste. I had to throw it away. The tempura isn't that bad (for sure is not good) but I'm so disappointed by the sushi that I cannot eat anything!

Not recommended
As a new UWS, my BF and I were searching for a new sushi spot, as we are sushi freaks! After some serious web research we chose to order from Kouzan as all the reviews were AH-MAZING! Well my question is, do the people on all sites not know good sushi...BC that is unfortunate! I am so perplexed by the 4 star reviews, because this experience may go down as the most disappointing EVER! The fish was mushy, as well has having thick cuts too difficult to chew. And not to mention the salad dressing being a sugary bowl of miso (no ginger in sight), and the soup a broth with random cut up vegetables.

Simply the BEST
Im an UWS native and a sushi lover. Nothing compares to this place if you love fresh fish! I eat here once a week and I am yet to have a single bad piece of fish. Absolutely delish. My new favorite restaurant.

Consistency and balance issues
I've ordered a few times from here, and each time the sushi rolls are off somehow. The rice is hard, the rolls are falling apart, or the balance of the flavors are off--like the spicy tuna is too saucy or the ingredients aren't in the proper proportions to be in harmony with each other. I feel there are better options in the neighborhood.
