great fresh sushi, service a little slow. the sushi was delisicous, you can tell it was prepared on the spot- it even felt like they may have had an aquarium on site! the meal took a little while to arrive, but i still would reccomend this place to a family memeber or friend!

Great Sushi Spot!. Been a regular customer since this spot opened and this place only gets busier and busier.

With good turnover, the quality of the sushi is always fresh and tasty. I frequently come here because of the friendly service and comfortable environment. The managers always make an effort to talk to me and the Front of house Hostesses are to drool for ;)

As for food my favorites are: Ocean Roll, Angry Lobster Roll, Firecracker Appetizer, and Blacken Chicken. They all go great with an order of Passion Fruit Saketini.

GOOD Time!. I've been to Kyoto several times with my girlfriend and never really had a bad incident. Their food is delicious! The place is pretty popular and it does get busy, therefore service can't always be excellent, but I definitely have seen better waitstaffs elsewhere, so there IS room for improvement. OTherwise they have a really nice staff, great food, Excellent sushi and a nice place to take a date. Make a reservation...

Bad Service. I've been there 3 times now, and everytime i went there i always get bad experience. I first went there with a bunch of friends on a thursday night. A waiter served us, we just sit for not even a minute, he asked if we r ready or not, when the food comes, he didn't even give us spoon or fork for the fried rice we order, everytime we asked for something, if he remember to give it to us, he gave it with unpleasant face, we have to constantly ask to refill our water, he didn't bother to ask if everything was ok or no, but at the end, when we decided not to tip him, coz he didn't deserved it, he asked us where is his tip! Unbelivable!! The ass manager saw that, came to us and ask was everything ok, so i said that the service was very very bad.

The second time was on a Monday ,my coworker took me here again for a business lunch, this time i'm not complaining about the service, the waitress was very nice and gave us a good service. We were just enjoying our food when there's a bunch of group came and sit at one of the big booth they have, but Gosh they are so noisy, they are screaming and laughing so hard, even the other tables were complaining that they are too loud,i can't even hear what my coworker said to me, so i made complain to the waitress and one of the hostess and they said they're gonna find the manager to talk to that table since the manager is on his break. The manager finally showed up after a while, but all he did was looking at those booth and did nothing, i saw that and wait for awhile, he disappeared again, so i stand up and go to the front desk asking for the manager again,this time i wait till he showed up from his break while someone called him and talk to him myself that he should talk to that table to lower their voice down alittle, then finally he did something, he talked to them, whats the matter with this people?? Isn't manager get paid to take care of customer's complain?? He doesn't seem to bother maybe because those people order lots of martinis???

Third time was last weekend, our luck we got the same old waiter that served us when i first came there, HORRIBLE HORRIBLE service, he's lucky my friend was good enough to gave 10% tip this time, i don't think i'll come back there again, the food was ok but if you have to eat there with someone that served you with unpleasant face all the time??? I don't think so, some of my friends also said this place now have bad service, when they made mistakes, or give bad service and we complain, all they do is just give the customer 10% off

Great place for food, conversation and drinks!. I go to Queens College which is near Kyoto and one evening I stopped in to get some sushi and I fell in love with the décor and the vibe. At the time I was also looking for a venue to have my 25th birthday dinner celebration. After being in Kyoto for 10 minutes and asking if they cater private parties, I instantly made the decision to have my birthday dinner there.

The catering manager was very helpful and flexible with my all needs. She made great suggestions in terms of the room décor and everything turned out fabulous.

On the evening of my event everyone from the staff to hostesses to bartenders were extremely polite and helpful. They made all my guests feel welcomed and comfortable.

All of my guests had a great time and really enjoyed the food (presentation, quality and quantity) and the ambiance.

They applauded me on finding the location and deciding to have it there.

My uncle is planning a 40th birthday celebration and I have already recommended Kyoto for his celebration.

Overall everything at Kyoto was just WONDERFUL!!!

A DEFINITE RECOMMEND!. I recently held my best friend's bridal shower here in the private party room and I have to say, this was a great decision. The room was clean, spacious, and was set up exactly as I had requested and envisioned.

The staff, from the owner, to the host/hostesses, to the wait staff were ALL incredibly helpful and friendly. The wait staff was always ready to help with whatever request we had. From inquiring about certain foods, to providing more plates/utensils, to even helping with the media equipment, I felt completely comfortable in their care.

The food was superb and affordable. Our guests all raved about the quantity as well as the quality. In particular, the sizzling beef, basil chicken, thai chicken wings, and spicy tuna rolls were phenomenal!

My best friend and all her guests gave thumbs up to the bridal party for picking this location. Highly recommend!

Good Food / Great People. I live in the neighborhood of this restaurant and I read quite a few of the Cityscape reviews, both good and bad. I couldn’t believe the bad ones for a place that has been there so long, so I thought I would give it a try.

I was very pleased with my experience. The hostess staff was very courteous and friendly. I was seated at one of the bench seats that someone wrote was hard and uncomfortable. I guess if you sit on the hard wood maybe, but the seats had a pad and it was fine.

I got there about 4PM, was seated promptly and was helped with my menu suggestion by one of the hostesses. After I placed my order, she came back to my table and advised me that it was not yet 4PM (3:57 PM to be exact) and I could have my meal using the discounted lunch menu. I thought that was very thoughtful.

My overall experience was the food was very good, the wait staff was excellent and I will be sure to repeat my visit.
