Comment: One of its kind in NYC. Designed for people who want to eat organic, clean and healthy and quality food. You just go to the counter, tell them what you want and they will pack the food for you in a paper bowl with a plastic lid. There are disposable chopsticks and plastic forks but no complementary water or tea for takeout. The portions were very generous, almost double of poke bowls you normally get at other places, the yuzu crusted salmon and miso glazed broccoli were insanely good. Cauliflower hit the spot too. I think the reason why they can afford to do this is because they save on real estate by sharing floor space with a sushi bar, which is a different restaurant, and the place has limited seating. The sushi bar is somewhat chic but the counter area where you order organic modern Japanese food and the seating area are not fancy by any stretch of imagination. For people who only care about practicality and convenience, and just want to touch and go, as long as its clean, uncluttered and the vibes are OK, all that doesnt matter because we arent paying for nice decorations, paintings on the wall, etc. If you bring 20 friends, the chances are, they will not have enough chairs and tables. It is more for solo diners or a party of two.

Comment: Amazing staff, food is really tasty (and even GF!). Super convenient location and about $20 for a bowl (pretty good portion) and a yuzu bev. They grow their own micro greens!! If I lived in the city, I’d frequent this as it’s tasty and healthy.

Comment: This is a great place to get a quick, healthy, and filling meal. Ive had lunch here a few times, and the staff have always been super friendly. The food is delicious, almost like a home-cooked meal which is unique for a fast casual joint. Id recommend eating here even if you dont have dietary restrictions.

Comment: Ditch Sweetgreen right across the street. AO Japanese is everything I wish places like Sweetgreen were. Quick meals that actually make you feel good after eating them, plus incredibly tasty. A little more pricey than your average bowl place, but you get what you pay for.

Comment: I happened to be headed back to my office today and fortuitously walked past a soft opening of a new restaurant, AO Organic JapaneseBeing that I was famished, I headed inside to take a look at the offerings.Since this was a soft opening the owners told me that they only have a very limited trial menu for today, but they are adding more dishes to the menu.I’m really not even sure what I purchased, but it was absolutely delicious.I told the owner (sorry, I didn’t get his name) that I wanted to try it all.So that’s what we did.He put together a nice size bowl with 8 different styles of grains, vegetables, salmon and a poached egg.Every single bite was delectable.Different far eastern spices, textures and tastes combined to leave me feeling, healthy, happy, satiated and wanting to try more.I hope these guys do well and add to their menu, because what I tasted was excellent, and I’d recommend it to all.Location: 38th & Broadway NYCEnjoy!

Comment: The good: staff is very helpful in explaining the menu; I was reasonably satisfied with the food.The (temporarily) bad: it closes pretty early. Also, the menu (as of fall 2022) is very small. None of the vegetable side dishes were anything I really wanted to eat. Having said that, the staff made it clear that this will change and the menu will expand, so maybe by the time you get there this will not be a problem.
