NancerellaJanuary 18, 2015Tsukune (Chicken Meatball) is very good... They use to have a different style of cooking on coal but now it's just a regular grill. I miss that but the food is still good. My favorite Yakitori place
The Wall Street JournalJuly 15, 2010The prix fixe Ju-bako ($35) and the Aburiya Set ($25) bring a variety of items. The tofu is delicately soft, the sea bass and salmon sashimi delicate and buttery, the Wasu steak artfully flavored. Read more
NicolaFebruary 23, 2015Typical and authentic Japanese restaurant. Go also for the set menu at lunch time very affordable and well prepared. At night go omakase for some very good sashimi, stews and Yakitori.
Sashimi here is amazing, as is scallops grilled on salt because it comes served on a brick sized piece of hot salt. And the Tsukune (Chicken Meatball Skewers) has a surprise onsen egg dipping sauce.- Bobby SolomonMay 28, 2018This Japanese Robata grill, set in an intimate, dark-wooded space, offers an array of proteins to choose from, like a couple of Waygu beef cuts, lamb chops, pork belly, and chicken thigh.
Eileen GAugust 6, 2014Excellent! Wonderful ambiance ...one of the best Japanese restaurants I've ever been to....anywhere. Don't miss the teriyaki chicken, grilled beef and ginger pork rice. Great service. Very authentic.
Erica ChoiOctober 31, 2013Sautéed noodles is pretty amazing. Crispy noodles due to the hot pot it's cooked in and just really delicious seasoning. Plum wine with hints of earl gray was also incredibly memorable.
Elie BleierAugust 6, 2014Don't come here searching for a Philadelphia roll - this place is super authentic, where Japanese come to eat Japanese. Food & ambience were outstanding. Teriyaki Chicken was to die for.
Everything. But particularly the Salmon Roe Rice Bowl, Tempura Chicken, and Pork Belly
Serious EatsAugust 5, 2013Come here for excellent Japanese cuisine, great desserts (try the Matcha Tiramisu!), and a sizable sake menu.
Halstead PropertyAugust 4, 2011When in the mood for Japanese or just seafood in general Aburiya is the perfect place. We always get started off with the super-fresh crab salad, and our favorite entrée is the miso cod.
Gregg BernsteinMay 8, 2015Broccoli rabe, fried burdock, handmade tofu. Amazing preparation and presentation of dishes.
Jess LeungJune 1, 2012Think of it as Japanese tapas--best shared and enjoyed. There are so many great options to choose from but the must-have is always the Tsukune (Grilled Ground Chicken).
TK 🍦🍷May 31, 2013Shared the Chef's Choice 3-fish sashimi platter. It was a perfect snack. Great quality fish. Lots of Japanese folks here; the food's the real deal.
Monday LisaJuly 8, 2018We had a lot of delicious dishes here - grilled chicken was off the hook, fried beef tongue, and homemade tofu
Jessie CatanaApril 23, 2017Everything was excellent! We ordered from the seasonal Chef recommendations menu and enjoyed every last bite
Danny ChangJuly 18, 2015The grill black cod is to die for. It's tender and sweet with a pinch of salt. Yum!
Lauren FarettaDecember 9, 2013Monkfish liver. Lily fried vegetable. Authentic Japanese. No doubt get the Omasake...$75 each
- DR GJuly 8, 2015Really authentic Japanese - you may struggle with the menu. Chicken robata, beef stew and red snapper on rice were standouts.
Amy CaoOctober 16, 2011Try the Fire Rice Pudding - So called because they light the top layer of liquor on fire before serving. No hard candy shell, unfortunately, but delicious custard, nonetheless!
Cheryl ChoAugust 30, 2014$60/person deal was amazing- 7 course meal. Mainly seafood for this particular option. So many sake choices- just ask the waiter for a rec
- JanetMarch 24, 2013Chef's lunch special, always a pleasant surprise. This is authentic tasty Japanese food, reservations highly recommended for lunch!!
For lunch, definitely try on the lunch specials - great selection and an good deal. Else, try the homemade tofu, rice balls with cod roe, sea eel with wasabi (love the bones), grilled dried skate fin. Read more
ドーラMarch 7, 2011Recommend grilled salmon collar with my sake, pork belly in spicy sauce, and noodles cooked in stone bowl to perfectly round off to a weekday lunch/dinner.
Paola ViscogliosiJune 16, 2021The salmon sashimi and scallops were good but I’d say they need to work on the quality of their cuts going forward. The tuna, pork and beef were chewy and hard to swallow.
Shalindra SoysaDecember 24, 2012Get the chefs special for lunch. Only 10 available per day - be there by 11.30 to get one
Noodle in stone pot is a must; fresh fish; famous green tea tiramisu
Thompson HotelsMay 24, 2011Our concierge at 6 Columbus says that the sashimi platter is delicate and the homemade tofu melts in your mouth. Delicious Asian fusion.
Ricardo MoralesMay 2, 2015For a party of three you'll get special accomodation. The rice specialties are great.
This place has lost its grilled meats on paddles and consequently, part of its mojo. Still up to snuff: Okinawa stir fry, fish collar, Kamameshi rice pots, sauteed noodles in stone pot.
Igor LevitOctober 10, 2014Great food and service. Authentic Japanese izakaya with a killer seasonal sake menu.
Alison LinApril 22, 2012Get the fried chicken, chicken meatballs with asparagus, noodles in stone pot, & green tea tiramisu!
Christopher KohSeptember 11, 2013Great spot - sashimi is fresh, but the tsukune is a must. Get grilled stuff
Daiki NakajimaApril 3, 2013Authentic Japanese izakaya style menu. Probably one of my favorites in NY
Tammy Heller-BezalelFebruary 12, 2012Omacase is amazing. Go for the pork belly, code fish fillet and sea urchin sashimi.
- Amy CaoOctober 10, 2011Try the Shochu With Yuzu Sake - Light and citrusy. One of my favorite Asian cocktails.
