bad service/good food 3/15/2006

i've eaten here a couple of times because of the good food. but each time i've eaten here, the service has been horrible. the waitresses are slow even when there's very little people, and at times they are very rude. one time we gave them a tip that was very small because the service was horrible and the waitress asked us if that was the tip! now we just order take out so that we don't have to deal with the service, and be able to enjoy the good food Pros: excellent food Cons: bad service, rude staff more

Thanks for a great night!! 2/26/2006

I just celebrated my 5 year anniversary with my girlfriend the other night at Kyoto which came highly recommended by my friends. It was definitely a great experience. The pleasant ambiance, food, & service made the whole night perfect. My girlfriend loved the combination of Japanese & Thai food mixed together. The presentation was excellent and prices were affordable. This sort of place would break my wallet if it were in Manhattan. It is definitely a Best of the Best in Queens. (Thank you Kelly for your Great Service ALSO!) Pros: Very Romantic, Good Service, Great Food Cons: Limited Parking more

TERRIBLE SERVICE-IT SUCKS, RUINS THE EXPERIENCE 2/13/2006

I have gone to this place several times hoping that the service will get better but it has failed us all 3 times. The food is good but for those of you that want a pleasant dining experience, don't think about coming here. We've had the wait staff ignore us or reject us from the tatami seating area even though the whole place was empty. They didn't check up on us and after giving a tip, the chinese waitress ran after us to complain about not tipping because she miscounted. What a disaster. Again, the food was good and if you are looking for good cheap Japanese takeout, this may be your spot, but who wants to dine at a place when the waitress hands you the check before you ask for it and says ""pay now please."" Pros: cheap food, good food Cons: terrible service more

worst service plus bad food 12/24/2005

The worst service ever in a restaurant. The waiters just ignored us. We asked for a coke atleast 5 times before they served us. The pineapple fried rice was burned. The sushi tasted unfresh. Save yourself the money and time. Pick another restaurant! Cons: bad service, bad food, unfresh sushi more

Nice fusion place in Queens 12/20/2005

I went there for dinner on a Tuesday night and surprisingly there were many people eating there. Food was pretty good and the service was friendly. I thought its an interesting idea of Japanese and Thai fusion. The dancing spider roll was delicious. The only bad thing was that they only had 3 types of beers. =) more

A QUEENS GEM!!! 12/9/2005

I've been living and eating in this neighborhood my whole life and I'm so glad there's finally a great restaurant here. I've been reading their service needs work, but I've been going to Kyoto since it first opened and the waitstaff and management are so friendly and personal compared with others. No chinese waiter torture here and they seem to be getting busier and busier which is a great sign. I also love the decor and atmosphere making it a good ""date restaurant."" And if you don't like raw fish like me (my gf loves it) they have great Thai food. The spicyness is just right, not too mild and not too extreme. The Rocket Shrimp, Kyoto Salad, Sizzling Beef and Dancing Shrimp are my favorites. Lastly, if you want entertainment sit at the sushibar, otherwise definitely try out the Tatami booths if you want a little more privacy. Pros: Friendly Service, Romantic Ambience, Tasty Food Cons: Crowded more

Worst Service Ever 11/28/2005

I had the worst service ever at this restaurant! I'm talking about one of the waiters. Yeah, I could see that they were so busy at that time, but that doesn't mean they can give less or unsincere service. My wife and I ordered a beer and a hot tea, and he brought beer after a while, opened the bottle, and told us he'd be back with a glass. After 10 minutes or so, I had to ask him again for a glass and a hot tea, and he came back with only a glass. It took about 1/2 hour to get our food and A HOT TEA!!! He finally realized that I was so upset and poured soy sauce into a small plate for sushi and said sorry but it was way too late to say that. Of cource, tip was $0.00. Cons: bad service, bad parking, not so real Japanese more

who knew??? 8/27/2005

i've been here several times already and i have got to say, Who knew? who knew that the food would be amazing in a random area in queens. i love the sashimi, so fresh and tasty. the plates are huge and servings are generous. one drawback is the pad thai, surprisingly not as good as others but other than that, the thai is great. you have GOT to try this place out. oh yes, the tempura ice cream, in my top 10 in the metro area. Pros: great sushi, affordable Cons: can be slow at times more

A nice sushi restaurant in Queens 6/19/2005

I came across this place looking through City Guides and was glad I found it because it's only 10 minutes away. The sushi was great but I haven't tried their Japanese and Thai entrees though. On the first visit we had the Passion Boat and it was pleasantly displayed and it filled us up and it was relatively inexpensive. The second time we ordered a-la-carte and it was just as satisfying. Try the Rocket Shrimp for an appetizer and the Flying Dragon Roll and the Scorpion King Roll and you won't be disappointed. The one gripe we had was the slow service. They were very pleasant but on too many occassions we were kept waiting and it wasn't very busy on both visits. I still recommend this place and we actually plan on inviting more people so we can go into one of their booths. Pros: Great taste, visually appealing, Inexpensive Cons: Slow service more

Excellent Sushi! 6/13/2005

The sushi was magnificent! I never thought you could get such good food for so little. You should order as many dishes as possible because everything is so good! I visited Kyoto this past weekend with a friend and we were amazed by the service and decor of the place. We wanted EVERYTHING on the menu (including the specials) because it all sounded so good. Yes, the portions are big and inexpensive. The service, quality and taste far exceeded our expectations. The sashimi was heavenly - and literally melted on my palette! You will not have to spend a lot for great food and service. Go to Kyoto you would never expect sushi to be this great in Queens. Pros: inexpensive, good parking, great service more

love the takeout 6/2/2005

Kyoto sushi, a very good choice of cuisine when it comes around to lunch time. Its not often that you find a place which has that spicy and delicious Thai food. I recommend the pineapple fried rice. I crave it just about everyday at work while flipping through lunch menus. They have many other selections in their Thai menu that are just as tasty. And unbelievably, its also fused with a Japanese menu. Great job Kyoto. Pros: thai food, jap food, affordable prices more

great food great price 5/30/2005

Whoever came up with the idea of combining Japanese and Thai food in one restaurant is a genius!!!! They serve everything I love in this restaurant such as Deep Fried Oyster, Pad Thai, Sushi, TEMPURA ICE CREAM!!!!!!, just to name a few. The waitstaffs are very friendly and attentive. Even though the sushi bar is a bit slow, it's worth the wait! =) more

city quality fusion restaurant on LI 5/29/2005

I was really impressed with the presentation of the food. I felt like I went to a high end restaurant in the city when my food arrived at my table. Sashimi & sushi were extremely fresh (highly recommend that Angry Lobster roll). Appetizers were great (don't forget to try the rock shrimp spring roll thing, its awesome). Service was very nice. Ambient is great. Overall, a hip place for great food and good times. Definitely a nice place to take your date to! Pros: lots of parking, accessible, good portions more

Great Sushi~!!! 5/24/2005

Sushi lovers watch out, Kyoto Sushi is one of the best restaruants to go to for great japanese food. I am a huge fan of sushi and I have to say that Kyoto has it perfect. I've been in the neighborhood for almost ten years and I have yet to find a restaruant around here that would be able to match up to kyoto's Sushi. Pros: Very Romantic, Friendly Service, Good food! more

Best Sushi in Queens 5/16/2005

I this past weekend to Kyoto with a group of friends to celebrate his bday. The service that we received was top notch and the meals were moderately priced. The sushi was extremely fresh and the portion was generously sized. If you are looking for a great sushi place to eat in Queens, Kyoto Sushi is the place to be. *For desert, try the mouth watering Fried Ice Cream~ It's to die for...... Pros: Service, Food more

Definately worth a visit 4/27/2005

Lucky for me, in a recent visit to Queens, friends took me to one of their favorite neighborhood restaurants, Kyoto Sushi. Loved the ambience and minimal decor. Service was attentive but unobtrusive and the food was beautifully presented a feast for the eyes. Most importantly, the food was fresh and delicious, combining interesting flavors. It also helped that the bill didnt put a dent in the pocketbook! Will definately be returning. more

In fact he insulted my friends. It was not an experince worth mentioning. i was highly disappointed. i would not recommended my friends to go there. more
