“ I had a wonderful experience lunching with two friends at Kotobuki in Roslyn, NY. We ordered salmon teriyaki, tendon (shrimp and vegetable tempura) and beef negimaki. Each entree came with a bowl of soup and salad. The food was excellent, with authentic Japanese flavors that left me craving for more. The short wait time was impressive, and the attentive waiter service added to the overall enjoyment of the meal. I truly appreciate the effort put into creating such a memorable experience. I highly recommend this place. ”
“ Me and my friend Sharon went to the Roslyn location yesterday and had a wonderful time and delicious dinner. The most special. Part of our dinner was our server Kyle. He was super attentive, accommodating, and extremely sweet, which made our experience that much more better. The service industry sometimes forgets that the experience doesn’t just come from the food, but from the entire staff which really made our experience even more delicious than the meal. And by the way, the food was completely amazing. We had three signature rolls and some appetizers. Everything came out on time. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend you visit this location and enjoy ask for Kyle to be your server. He was amazing.!!!! ”
“ I went with a group of four people. I've heard the wait times here can take a while so we went a bit earlier and we did not have such a long wait time. We started with the tuna pizza, crispy rice spicy tuna and the Kmac sliders. All of the apps were extremely delicious. We ordered a few different rolls as well. They were all pretty good. Nothing was wow but everything was above average. I would dine again. ”
“ Solid sushi spot for lunch, not super crowded. I had the sushi lunch special both the sushi and the salmon rolls were excellent. I am not a fan of California rolls so I was happy when the allowed me to substitute free of charge. The fish was fresh and you tell it was good quality sushi. Will be coming back! ”
“ Updated: On Feb 2, 2025 visited restaurant and to my surprise the food and service was outstanding. The server Hanna was very attentive and professional and friendly. She made sure that all was great and if we needed anything not to hesitate to ask. We had a number dishes like Sushi deluxe sp salmon roll, yellowtail jalapeno, nabeyaki udon and other dishes. The food was fresh as well. My son and I went for dinner. Ask for Hanna , she is very attentive, friendly and caring for her customers to be satisfied while eating. Thank you Hanna! You made our dinner a pleasure to visit this restaurant. As someone who travels a lot and enjoys trying different ethnic foods and reviewing the food and services to let other customers know how the food and its service is. Approx 2 years ago ,I was not impressed at all about the food. I gave 4 stars because of the service and friendliness. It was very crowed too maybe because of the weekend. ”
“ Food was so amazingly fresh! I’m never disappointed when I come here. It’s always a special treat when Kane is my server! He’s the best! ”
“ We visited Kotobuki for a company dinner, and it was a fantastic dining experience from start to finish. The ambiance was welcoming yet sophisticated, perfect for both casual gatherings and professional settings. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the sashimi and sushi platter. The fish was incredibly fresh and melted in our mouths. Each piece was artfully presented, showcasing the chefs' attention to detail. The rolls were also impressive—creative combinations with just the right amount of rice and fillings. Service was top-notch. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure our group of colleagues felt comfortable throughout the evening. ”
“ Ever since 2021, I have been coming to Kotobuki Roslyn. Look - sometimes, when in the city, I’ll go to their Manhattan location - but it just isn’t the same! For starters, Kane works in Roslyn. If you ever have the pleasure of having him be your waiter, make sure to give him a big hello - he is the best. But so is the rest of the staff. When you go to Kotobuki, they treat you like family. There are so many great sushi options in the neighborhood. However, none of them compare to Kotobuki. It feels like home. The food is the best not just of any sushi restaurant nearby - it’s the best of any RESTAURANT nearby. Period! The crispy rice and spicy tuna has to be a bite of heaven, but I know the many vegetarians I have gone with have dreams about the Tofu Steak. Whether Beef Negimaki or Sushi Dinner is more your speed, wash it down with a Lychee Martini and take in the ambiance! I couldn’t recommend it enough. If you haven’t been already, make your way over NOW!!! ”
