Comment: Always love some good sushi, and decided to try this place. The food to me is average, not exciting. Kind expensive and small portions, sashimi is fresh and decent quality. but it’s NY, so kind of expected. The tempura cheesecake was the highlight of the meal. The service is great 👍.

Comment: The restaurant is directely at the Times Square - means higher prices! Friendly staff and good service. Sushi and sashimi had a good quality but it was nothing special.

Comment: Really good Japanese food and fantastic service. It was our pre Broadway show dinner. We were going to Wicked after which was perfectly located right across the street. Natsumi offered free dessert for every ticket to Wicked! (You have to spend at least $35 per ticket for each free dessert.) The tempura cheesecake was phenomenal!

Comment: Food is very good, especially for the price. Everything was freshly made and came out as it was ready.The only two faults I wound mention are: 1) the food wasnt spectacular, that is, it was really good just not five star worthy; and 2) the alcohol offerings were really weird, having stuff like sake sangria.Overall it was great, though, so definitely try it out if youre in the area.

Comment: Great little spot to find near Times Squa before a show! As a new Yorker, I tend to avoid Times Square like the plague. But, for when people are visiting or I see a show, I love to find a little place tucked away that I can go to. This is the place! Sushi tastes pretty good, prices arent bad either for that area. Only qualm is that service tends to be a little slow. Otherwise its a pretty cool place!

Comment: Interesting little spot that offers some good sushi. Great for a quick snack before a theatre show begins! The staff are friendly and helpful. I wouldn’t suggest ordering wine by the glass here as it might have some slow turnover (ie. oxidize wine). The black miso cod was delicious and if you want to spoil yourself, I’d recommend this. Chocolate mousse cake was also ok…but lacked a “wow” factor….still ate all it though!

Comment: Had the Omakase. It was the best sushi we ever had. If your looks for the experience of a multi course service, you’ll be disappointed as the presentation comes out in two serving portions. The food is off the charts and service is fantastic. The cocktails are fantastic as well. Great ambiance and the late dining options was well appreciated and we didn’t feel rushed even as we sat there past midnight.

Comment: Loved this place! We went there for a pre-theater dinner and could not be happier. Fantastic service, nice ambiance and the food was great. They have a very nice price fixe pre-theatre menu. I highly recommend the spicy miso fish soup for the starter. For a main course, I had the sushi which was also tasty. They have a selection of three desserts all of which were fantastic. I highly recommend the tempura cheesecake.The service was also great. I have three teens and we’re not always an easy assignment for a server but our server at Natsumi handled it all with tact and grace. Highly recommend this lovely restaurant!!

Comment: Can I have 100 stars? Holy moly! There are some amazingly unique treats on this menu, and of course I had to try! Green tea gnocchi? Probably easily one of the best gnocchi dishes Ive had! The capers scattered through the dish give a perfectly salty compliment to a savory dish that has the perfect dash of something almost sweet! I will be dreaming about this dish FOR-EVER! Stacy our server was an absolute delight! To top off the meal; dessert a tempura cheesecake, crunchy and just absolutely melts in your mouth!I will most certainly find myself here again when I visit...if not again before I leave!

Comment: The food and service was great. Place is clean and sleek. We had the tofu ravioli which was amazing. Does not sound like it would be something tasty, but it was delicious. Next we did a pre-fix menu for restaurant week. We had sushi and crispy pork dumplings. Delish. For entree we had the steak teriyaki with veggies. Fresh and very good. Little heavy on sauce but nothing to complain about.

Comment: We placed our reservation a month ago. Tonight we were greeted warmly and were promptly seated. The restaurant was busy but not loud. Our server was attentive and answered our questions on the menu with clarity. We ordered sashimi and sushi, miso soup, and salad with ginger dressing, and each was flavorful and fresh. We would not hesitate to return.

Comment: We had the tempura rock shrimp and fried chicken appetizer. Both were excellent and we should have stopped there as that was enough food for the both of us.We also had a couple of mixed drinks (peach one pictured here) and we enjoyed a Sapporo as well.Shared the maki platter, I wouldnt order the Philly roll again, too much cream cheese and no cucumber, it was just overwhelming. We shared the tempura, dont skip this during your visit - delicious!

Comment: We just stopped in for a late dinner on Friday night, and I wasnt expecting too much but I was utterly charmed by the gentle, attentive service and the delicate Japanese cuisine - we opted for a dinner bento, which contained one of the best pork katsu versions I have had in years, plus a horizontal tasting of four delicious sakes. The acoustics were perfect for Date Night, since it wasnt blasting music, just a light buzz of conversation.

Comment: Had a great experience dining at Natsumi yesterday.We ordered the Sushi & Sashimi, Wolf Hall, Tempura cheesecake, and it was really good. The fish is super fresh and the sushi roll was delectable. The wolf Hall was the star of the evening, impeccable presentation and taste. The restaurant is a tad expensive but totally worth it. I have to mention that the cheesecake tempura is a unique take on dessert and it did not disappoint. The managers and waiters were gracious and all our food came on time. Our reservation was at 8, so I guess we missed the pre-theater crowd.

Sweet to the core. The after taste was beautiful. Staff was welcoming and helpful.A bit sad to learn that their special dish, salmon taco is no longer in the menu...Price was reasonable considering its location. Will come back again.

I had the rainbow roll and the dragon roll, which was displayed very aesthetically.I really want to stress how calm and chill the environment was, as it felt great having dinner here. We also had the king crab dumpling, which had a superb taste and the dough tasted extremely silky and soft.As for the sushi rolls, they tasted great and the seafood was very fresh as well. Overall a great experience with a decent price, as each person payrd around thirty dollars for a very filling meal.

Comment: Where is one of the best places where you can taste modern-day Japan? Maybe to grab some sushi, tempura, fish or tasty rice? Or maybe a drink after an evening at the theatres? Head down to Natsumi for all of those!When you enter a Japanese restaurant your first (and obvious choice) is sushi! This dish is the standard-bearer of Japanese cuisine, and you can find it all over the globe. But in Natsumi is one of the finest! The assortment is rich with all kinds of sushi, sashimi, and rolls. The sushi entrees and special rolls provide some great mixes of ingredients, and flavors, like Natsumi sushi set or the Toro lounge. There are some tasty vegan/vegetarian options amid the rolls like Zen maki. If you have a hard time picking – try the maki combination. And definitely give Chef’s Creation a try!The sushi is a must but Natsumi provides other excellent dishes, too. Soups, salads, cold and hot appetizers, kitchen entrees (like the classic teriyaki chicken or seafood tempura). The desserts are pretty good, too, and the tempura cheesecake has gained a lot of recognition around.There’s a nice lunch menu offering lunch boxes with tempura, dumplings, miso soup or salad, and an entrée. The Special lunches are not to be skipped, too.

We got the salmon carpaccio and dumplings for appetizers, Omakase sampler with a roll for mains and Chocolate mousse cake for dessert. Everything was delicious. The carpaccio was very fresh and so was the sushi. I would try their happy hour in the future too.

I had the chicken katsu bites and a roll of spicy tuna. It was very good. It came out to 14.50 because you get a discount for staying at the hotel (you must present you room key). I may even be back for a late night snack.

The rolls, while expensive (even for NYC prices) are large and fresh, and the flavors fantastic. The cocktail menu is equally impressive.

Comment: I went there with a friend one evening and I didn’t have a reservation but it was no problem as the Hostess seated us right away even though the restaurant seemed to be very busy . I have to give a special mention to our server Zau . He was very friendly and professional . He helped us choose our food items and explained every question we had about the menu . He also recommended the Warm Sake which was very good . Over all the Food was excellent and the. bathrooms were very clean and our server took exceptional care of us . I would definitely go back here . Thank you for a wonderful experience .

Comment: I really like the atmosphere. Think it’s a great place to go for a work lunch. I’ve ordered the bento box before and the last time I went I ordered the salmon teriyaki. The food I’ve had here is delicious. Only reason for my 4 star rating is that sometimes it gets really crowded/loud and the menu is somewhat limited. I’ll definitely be coming back here again

Comment: We ate here prior to going to a show and it was perfect! Perfect in terms of portion size, tastiness and timing so that we finished the meal comfortably to make our show.We arrived a bit after 6pm and we didnt have a booking but since there was just the two of us, we were able to get a counter seat. Had no issues. The service was quick and our waiter attentive. We ordered the Matsu chef selection menu for two which came with sake, and we ordered beer and edamame to start. The matsu menu came with 2 appetizers and a sushi and sashimi plate with a roll. The oysters at the start definitely got me excited about what was to come. The second appetizer was a tempura fried roll which Ive never had. Really enjoyed the sweet soy sauce and the wasabi cream sauce it was served with. The sushi and sashimi was beautiful. The o-toro sashimi was a thick cut and melted in my mouth. The sake paired complemented this dish perfectly. Then as we we finished our meal content, the waiter brought over a chocolate mousse cake as he picked up on my partner saying it was my birthday. This was a nice surprise. It was a nice light dessert too that left us finishing the meal on a high note, and ready for the show.Will definitely go back for a pre show meal here again.

Comment: 2 words.. Miso Soup. 5 stars. I would bathe in it.. baptize my children in it. . ive spent the last week writing poetry and music for it, so when i return i can serenade the hard working men and women who eagerly ladle its tofu infused goodness, crisp seaweed, and the melty, crusty onion chips into each and every bowl of wondrous deliciousness that can only be explained through epics of great sages written in times long past and sung about by bards forever forgotten... but i will guarantee you this... long after the towers of men have crumbled, and the names of those who put together this recipe have dissipated into nothingness, their bones turned to dust, this soup, this mellifluous fluid will be remembered.

Comment: We came to Natsumi for dinner, very crowded but helpful staff to find us a table after short wait. Dinner and sushi were delicious, very well prepared, rice soft and right temperature, and the fish was melting in mouth. Chef is creative, having tried a springsroll with fish and cheese inside ! Sounds special, but was excellent. We were delighted by the restaurant, we recommend it.

I order tofu lunch box and every thing it came with was delicious.Their lemongrass seafood soup had the most unbelivable tender salmon that simply fell apart in the mouth.The seaweed salad was ok. Cant say that it great, however ther tartar martini (not a drink) was amazing. Layers of salmon, avocado and tuna made perfect sense and complimented each other great.

Comment: While on the search for some place to hangout and have couple of drinks, the cold got the better of our undressed selves and we shortened our journey to Natsumi with no great expectation other than to get warm. I just so happened to be late happy hour. Score! We had couple of glasses of the red on happy hour, then had some delightful snackings from the happy hour menu, and since those were so good we decide to grab to rolls before the kitchen closed. Everything was very tasty and the bartender was friendly and nice. Would definitely come again if I lived there.

Sake selection is good, and some interesting cocktails. Happy hour specials. Gets crowded when its open so make a rez.Nothing wrong at all in our visit but, for Manhattan sushi houses, that 5th star means something truly exceptional.

Comment: Lapin and I came here for dinner on a Tuesday night. We had made reservations according to the LivingSocial voucher. We made reservations for 6:30pm but we still had to wait even though there was seats in the back. When we were finally seated, they gave us these two tiny side seats but that could barely fit one of my butt cheek (sorry..for the image).The waitress came over and filled our water within 5 minutes of us sitting down. When I pulled out the voucher, she yelled “LivingSocial” three times loudly while pointing to us, like we were the plague. According to the voucher, the deal was only good in the bar and lounge area, however, we were not told that when we made the reservation and assumed they knew when they seated us. We were moved into the bar and sat awkwardly in this white table with sleek adult high chairs. We were given the menu but no water or acknowledgment. Finally, the manager came over and moved us to the couch near the window. It was a bit squashed because this loud and rowdy group who were talking over Rodan + Fields (yes, I am calling you out for being inconsiderate) products took over most of space. They use most of our small chair as a coat rack and leaving us to put our stuff on the floor. They were throwing their elbows around almost crashing into our tapas plate and wine.Our voucher included 4 tapas to share and 1 bottle of wine. The lounge was packed but died down around 8pm. They did have a live jazz band playing but it was quite loud but died down after the crowd from R+F left and the music stopped.We ordered a bottle of Riesling, which was tasty but a bit sweeter than Lapin wanted. The bottle wasn’t the standard bottle size but almost a half bottle. This could be because we used a voucher. I ordered the rock shrimp tempura, it was delicious and came with a good size portion. I also ordered two maki rolls - the california roll and rock shrimp roll (6pc each). They were okay; the seaweed was a bit chewy. The rock shrimp roll was a bit bland and had no sauce with it. They also forgot to serve us soy sauce even though I tried asking several times for it. Lapin ordered the fried Japanese chicken and was unimpressed by it. He thought it was going to be tastier and it was a bit plain -- he said he could make better. He also ordered the chicken and shrimp dumplings. The dumplings did have a whole shrimp in it but he thought it was on par with the Trader Joe’s ones.The service was a hit and miss in the beginning, but when the manager came to check in on us he saw that we weren’t have a great time. After we finished our meal, the server came over to surprise us with four pieces of tempura cheesecake on the house. This was a good job on behalf of the management, I went from hating being there to actually wanting to go back (but ordered something else). Never have I seen a manager who actively took steps to make an unhappy diner happy and for that, they deserve a 4 star review instead of the original 2 star review I was going to post.

My girlfriend had chicken and green tea soba soup which she said was good. We liked the look of lobster and mushroom ravioli however it was really really bad. Next we ordered the rock shrimp maki sushi which was excellent. Irma our waitress was fantastic, so friendly and polite. We tried the tempura cheese cake for dessert and it was out of this world. Overall I can highly recommend this place after a broadway show
