Incroyable! We called ahead to place our order. Went to pick it up and it was ready! It's cash only, zelle or venmo. The inside is small and minimal seating, I think it was like one big table. The sushi was delicious. For the price we got so much sushi. We also tried the grilled hamachi, it was fatty, buttery and grilled to perfection! We are happy customers. Definitely returning very soon!.
Cash only! This is one of my Favorite sushi places in the city. While there are some seating options, it's best for takeout! The sushi is fresh made, with many different varieties available, all at an *excellent* price. This is also one of the best places for an easy hosting/party food option! They have giant trays for a reasonable price, many good for 8+ people in a single tray! The trays come with a great variety, letting folks sample all sorts, and the sushi is both filling and fresh, making the trays good enough for a no-effort meal option on their own!.
Not sure how I had this in my Google maps as a place to visit, but if you are a sushi lover, this is a spot that you would definitely come back to. The name of the business it's kinda deceiving, but the sushi is very good since it's very fresh. My wife and I enjoyed the place and I would recommend the firecracker roll and bonzai roll.
Great sushi at an amazing price. We ordered the A3 tray, and it was bomb. the rice is good quality, well cooked, and its soft and fluffy. all their ingredients taste fresh, even their wasabi is soft and fresh. their rate is nearly a dollar a sushi which is insane! i dont know how they pull it off. the service is also great, everyone behind the counter and in the kitchen is super nice and respectful, full of japanese hospitality. if i had to describe this place in one word, it would be AUTHENTIC.
I haven’t been to this place for 8 years and I’m glad I made it back. The interior has changed for better and sushi quality was top notch! I enjoyed it so much I had to order twice. Will be back and recommend to friends.
Just tried LFM for the first time! I would recommend. Great sushi rolls for an affordable price. I ordered the “A2” maki tray which is listed to feed 2-3 people. There was a good variety of fish (tasted great), texture and flavor throughout the tray. I ordered ahead on a busy night (new year’s eve) knowing it would take some time to receive my order. Though it did take some time, everyone was polite and handled the large sea of people well. I will be back to try some nigiri for sure. Also, they’re listed as “cash only”, though they did allow some patrons to pay with Venmo when the ATM malfunctioned. Totally worth it for take-out sushi.
