"As a minority company, I made my business to protect this place. The food is very good and also the drinks. I'm going out the way. Last time I got a red bean soup. I was very disappointed, disappointment and half a cup or carrot. I was home and I called the store. The owner, later to find out, was immediately fighting with me. She finally agreed to replace it. I felt like I asked her to do the right thing. I've been comprehensible to call. She asked my name, so I thought cool she'd write it up. As I told her, I don't know when I'd be right there. I went two weeks later and told her about the conversation. She immediately got angry, rolled her eyes and said, come back later. I told her to keep her soup. If that means anything. She basically accused me of lying. About a $5 soup. I've spent $20 on drinks. Of course I won't go back. I'll miss the food. Not the drinks as much as I bought a juicer."

"Maybe I am just used to much better quality italian food and pizza, but this food is just very low quality. My family and I ordered chicken and veal parm dinners that came with ziti, and a pie of pizza.The pizza itself was so bland, and the mozzarella was very chewy and tough (usually a sign it has been frozen for a long period of time). The tomato sauce on the ziti was very watery, which also severely watered down the taste (from my experience means instead of making more sauce, they just added water). And the breading on the veal and chicken had absolutelyu no seasoning and again, was completely tasteless. I would recommend goingnelsewhere."

"Very fast and friendly service, the food was amazing and one of the only times I've gone to a diner with free coffee refills and the coffee doesn't taste like water. The serving sizes were large and worth their price and I am so sad that I found this jewel of a restaurant a week before the way from Talstrom. If you're looking for a nice place for breakfast / brunch don't look further! I still have to taste their lunch / dinner, but I had their quiche as well as their Corned beef hash and Caesar salad. Friend had pancakes, eggs and bacon. Very delicious 10/10 would go again. Also watching the connection that the waiters had with some of the customers was so good that it exploded my heart. Just listen to one of the servers when she saw a master name and looked at him and the usual? Another spoke to an older couple who was on a date and treated them with so much kindness and respect. You don't see that kind of real kindness much anymore. Amazing that this place has such good relations with its restaurant goers."

"Hands down the freshest, best sushi. If you have large pieces of bad quality fish, Mikado is definitely not the place for you. We eat here / take out every week since we discovered it a few years ago (except during the Covid shutdown) and the food is consistently delicious. Just great!"

"On this side of Long Island this is the number one restaurant that serves authentic Japanese cuisine, their sushi chef are well known Japanese. This is where all the local Japanese come to eat, and I can see why. I really enjoy their traditional Japanese garden. The manager naturally makes you feel like you're in a family restaurant, and that's why I see groups of families hibachi the hibachi."
