I had a wonderful dining experience at Wokuni. The restaurant has a really nice ambience — modern, comfortable, and perfect for both casual dinners and slightly more special occasions. From the moment you walk in, the space feels polished but still very welcoming.
We started with miso soup, which was warm, balanced, and exactly what you want to begin a Japanese meal. I also had pineapple juice, which was fresh tasting and refreshing, especially alongside the food.
For appetizers, the mackerel starter was excellent. It was flavorful, fresh, and prepared very well. You can tell the ingredients are high quality and handled with care. For the main meal, we ordered a sushi platter and sushi rolls, and both were fantastic. The fish was fresh, the rice was seasoned perfectly, and the presentation was clean and elegant without being overdone.
We also tried the chicken soup, which was comforting and flavorful — simple but done really well. It added a nice balance to the meal alongside the sushi.
Service was smooth and attentive without being intrusive, and everything came out at a nice pace. Overall, I really loved both the food and the atmosphere. It’s a great spot if you’re looking for quality Japanese food in a relaxed but stylish setting. I would definitely come back again.

My friends and I had a wonderful experience at Wokuni. Love the warm ambience and high ceiling, really nice elegant vibe. Attentive services and the food was fantastic.
The four of us opted for the Sushi Omakase, absolutely refined freshness taste on the sushi.
It was a very delightful and delicious meal. Highly recommended and I would definitely be back again!

Really fresh fish! Definitely come here for sashimi and sushi. Wasn’t personally a fan of hamachi carpaccio and I’ve had better agedashi tofu (although this one is still good) but the Monday sushi set was amazing and the fish for the hotpot was also sushi grade. All in all we left here feeling full and satisfied. One small thing is that we asked for good seating in our reservation for a special occasion, but we didn’t get that.

Wokuni serves excellent Japanese cuisine at reasonable prices. The restaurant is about a 10-minute walk from Grand Central Station. It is recommended to make reservations for weekday lunch. We had been eyeing their Osashimi Teishoku (limited to 5 servings daily) and the Wokuni-Don (limited to 8 servings daily) on our last 4 visits but it was always sold out shortly after the restaurant opened at 11.30am. We finally managed to order the 2 dishes today. Both dishes were excellent. The sashimi was fresh and came in generous portions. The tempura was delicious (lightly battered and not oily.) The service is always very friendly and efficient. Our server today was Manisha and she was very prompt in placing our orders before they ran out.

Wokuni delivers incredible Japanese food across the board — both the yakitori and the sushi/sashimi were excellent. We were tempted by the osusume special, but honestly the sushi platter and 5-kind sashimi turned out to be great value on their own. Everything was exceptionally fresh.
The space itself is beautiful, and we lucked out with a booth, which made it easy to actually talk and enjoy the meal without shouting over anyone.
Overall, a standout spot for high-quality Japanese dishes — fresh fish, solid yakitori, and a warm, polished atmosphere. Would happily go back.

Came for lunch and loved the variety of options available, the fish was very fresh. I’m not really much of an oyster guy, but these are changing my mind, recommend getting. A very nice cosy interior with ample seating, and service was on point as well.

Tuna experience is a 10/10! They are fantastic hosts, the whole production is very entertaining and impressive. We bid on the tuna cheek and eye and got both – one tip is that people up their bids last minute so be wary. They honored our second highest bid even when someone tried to outbid us once the auction had closed, was very kind of them. I also recommend requesting to sit at the bar for the auction as you receive a lot of attention from both the host cutting up the tuna as well as waiters for the service. The waiters, staff and hosts were all top notch – very personable and kind. I brought my boyfriend for his birthday and he had the best time. This is a fabulous date or gift experience.

Go early for the Wokuni Don. The fish is incredibly fresh and tasty. For the price and quality it’s a must have at lunch. Go early as there are only limited quantities. Portions are good, service is quick and friendly.

We went to WOKUNI for dinner and had an excellent experience. We ordered a variety of sushi, and my favorites were the caviar and the uni, both incredibly fresh and flavorful. We also enjoyed an amazing dessert, and the sake was outstanding. The service was friendly, attentive, and really elevated the whole evening. Highly recommend!

I’m not an Asian food connoisseur and don’t usually go to Asian restaurants, but this place is special. A true gem. The sushi is exceptional and so were the noodles. Ambience and service were great too. I ended up going 2 days in a row
