Chikurin

Amazing sushi place!! Out of the dozens of sushi restaurants I've been to Chikurin is the only one that has served sweet potato rolls HOT! When you order over a certain amount of sushi, they serve it on different plates--I've had a boat shaped platter which looks stunning. Any roll is delicious! No complaints at all.

I have been a customer with Chikurin for a couple of years now, quality food, but service has been awful lately, especially upon delivery. Very disappointing. This is how my food was delivered to me; the soup was spilled over, and seeped into the sushi container and partially into the salads, not to mention the sushi itself also was all over the place in the container too, and the soup was all over the bag as well. Obviously this would piss anyone off. When I called to let them know and ask for new food, they didn't even want to give me that option at first but instead tell me I'll get some credit for next time. THEN continued on to tell me that the delivery guy has a lot of other orders in the car and they're heavy and he probably squished it like that... That was their excuse. As business owners, they should know better than that, there is no excuse. If you deliver food from your restaurant, the bottom line is it should be delivered the way you would receive it as a dine in. So if you plan on ordering from here, make sure you check your food before the delivery person leaves because I'm sure they'll give you an issue with it afterwards as well.

2017.10 Well this is like a five year old restaurant ..typical Japanese restaurant ... lot of sp. Rolls ..... but why . Eat simple roll can taste what u order ... all sp roll once in ur month . Same. Their salmon teriyakie is like take out order . U can easily find better opts....and if they hv special fish...it would be something u want to try ..otherwise it is an average common one.. kind of dark for Japanese restaurant

I used to order delivery and eat in very often, but no more. There is a good reason why the place is always empty. Friendly staff, but be cautious with food. They served SPOILED TUNA in tuna roll. Stink like old fish and dark in color, they likely knew what they were serving. I will boycott them from now on. Brooklyn branch on Ocean Ave is much better and usually fresh.

It's a pretty good establishment, and it's a good place to go to if you want pretty good sushi/rolls on the island. The waiters are a bit slow and quite a few don't speak English as their first language, but it's not too much of a hassle. Some of the seats, mainly the window seats, slide around a bit if you move around too much in the seat. Overall though, good place to go if you've got a few friends who want to go to a sushi place for a quick bite for lunch (they have a lunch special till 3:30PM, I believe).
