love my Narita

by avidagoblue

Narita's been around for as long as I can remember, and we are talking about 25 plus years. I loved the chicken teriyaki when I was a teenager, my family's night out would consist of going to Narita and then a movie afterward. One thing that I really missed when I was away in college was Narita's food, when my parents came for the visits, they would bring me food from Narita to make me feel less homesick. Years gone by, I am now married with 2 young children(2 and 5), and yes, they have my genes. My kids love the teriyaki, the yaki-soba, the gyoza and the kappa maki. My wife loves the maguro and hamachi sashimi and my favorites are the ankimo appetizer, miso-Chilean seabass, torched toro sashimi and their chocolate lava cake (we had to order 3 since no one wants to share.) Narita is a great family restaurant, friendly staff, consistency in food quality and a true gem in Forest Hills.

  • Pros: Best Japanese In Queens
  • Cons: PARKING!!!!

Sushi restaurant - Good & Affordable

by TNT175

I have been going to Narita for the past 5 years. This is ONE of the BEST sushi restaurants in Forest Hills.

The fish is ALWAYS FRESH and the service is always friendly. Some of their specialty rolls are EXCELLENT and creative. Normally when going out for Japanese I order Japanese beer or sake, however there are a few specialty cocktails on the menu that I had overlooked until recently...strong and worth the price. If you are looking for good sushi at a reasonable price this is the place to go.

Nice place to EAT ONLY!!!

by dragonkwl123

Everything was just GOOD. Just one thing to work on(RACE). Usually asians go to asian restaurants to eat too. Don't treat us any different from the others(AMERICANS). The chefs make it very uncomfortable for us the customers. If the CHEFS just performed like usual , we would have no problem. Chef's don't talk as much because we are "ASIAN". I don't think that's fair. The FOOD and waitstaff service is GOOD.. Not great , but GOOD.

  • Pros: A place to EAT good food
  • Cons: Chefs service should certainly be better towards same or other RACE.

Great Service, Great Food

by makiyama

This place is absolutely STELLAR! I love love loveee the fried rice. It's to DIE for. I think the only thing that should be changed is the lighting... it's a bit too dark in the daytijme. But I guess it's good for romantic dinners, despite what other people say. The staff is very polite and they often arrive and check on you. When they are really busy they might be a bit forgetful and neglectful, but the food is absolutely perfect. I'm a Japanese transfer student, and trust me. I KNOW good Japanese food. So try this place out. The prices are reasonable too for a poor college student like me! Arigato gozaimasu!!! ^_^

  • Pros: GREAT GREAT GREAT food! especially fried rice
  • Cons: daytime's too dark inside

service not prompt, food took forever

by chen2006

when we first walked it, a fight broke out between this mother and other gentlemen. the fight was not quite manged properly by the restaurant, the manager should've taken care of itt in a more professional manner but it took them a long time to finally calm both parties down.

we sat down right in the middle of the fight, almost getting struck by the mother, ordered our drink and soup and at the same time ordered 4 6-piece rolls after waiting for about 15 mnutes for a waiter to serve us. we got our soup and drink about 10 minutes later and about 1/2 hour asking the waiter what's taking our food so long. we literally waited for over 45 minutes to finally getting our sushi which was pretty simple rolls. the waiter was not honest wtih us in the timing of our food when in fact it after saying it'll be ready in 5-10 minutes, it actually took almost 25 minutes. we walked in at 8:30pm and left there a little bit after 10pm. for a simple 4 rolls and a miso soup shouldn't take over an hour to be served. the food was definitely not worth waiting that whole hour. although we were compensated by the waiter with small beer, the wait was still not worth it. if i was to do it again, i would've gone to the place on austin street.
