" This sushi place is a hidden gem! I stumbled upon it while walking in Midtown, and I'm so glad I did. The eel roll was particularly delightful, though I did find the portion size to be a little on the small side for the price. Ultimately, I believe the freshness of the ingredients made up for it. I’ll definitely come back to try more items on their menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I visit, I'm reminded why I keep coming back. The quality is consistent, and the sushi is always fresh. Don't skip the lunch specials if you find yourself in Midtown. The price point is spot on for the quality you receive. It’s a very casual environment, which I appreciate, but the food is what truly shines. Look out for seasonal offerings too!

" Upon entering, I felt a welcoming vibe. The staff were friendly and offered quick service. I ordered the sushi combo and was thoroughly impressed! Each bite was delightful, and the ingredients were obviously fresh. It’s a bit small, and I wouldn’t suggest for larger groups. Overall, it was a satisfactory meal, and I'll return to sample more from the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sasabune Express has quickly become my go-to spot for sushi. While the place is quite small, the quality of food makes it a hidden gem. The hand rolls are made expertly and have great flavor combinations. It’s worth the slight waiting time it sometimes takes. The service is friendly, though a bit hurried during peak restaurant hours. If you're looking for authentic sushi in NYC, this is a must-try! " (*Curated Review*)
