  1. Fair is fair here! What's nice about this place is that it's not a restaurant with waiter service that expects tip. And besides, most sushi bars around NYC are a bit pricey, but with $10 here you can get a decent meal. The lunch deals have a nice price and portion with 2-classic roll, 3-classic roll deal, and bento box.

    The quality is not bad and it was a little better than okay (in that bit good area). Katsu chicken bento box did not disappoint me. The salad was refreshing, the gyoza and california was a bit small (I'm kind of a big dude), katsu chicken was delicious. Overall a nice meal to eat. Gotta get the 3-roll deal for lunch next time!

  2. For a no frills kind of place, these guys make above average sushi for a stupidly cheap price (think 3 rolls for roughly $11).  Delivery is very fast (usually 15-20 mins to the Chelsea area).  Don't expect the bells and whistles in terms of presentation, but it's a tasty delivery option for those who live in the area.

  3. Dropped in on a lark and rolled out very happy with 3 rolls, one special, under $20! They were tasty and fast and I would eat there too seeing how clean it was.So happy that this spot is just around the corner from home.

  4. As a take out place for sushi, this was only a hair above made-for-supermarket sushi, in terms of its quality, but its service was very good. Having made a hefty order for myself because the food looked good in the pictures, I was hoping for a splashy affair.

    It came out looking rather plastic, but I enjoyed it anyway.

    Getting through the salad with the typical ginger dressing was highlighted by me spilling the miso soup all over myself. Wearing it was not what I had in mind, but the counter people came out immediately to help and they replaced the soup and salad without a thought.

    That was their moment to shine and they did well for me.

    I will go back and try their wares again.

    A note about the "B" grade: don't let it scare you off. It appears to me that the NYC Health Dept is nailing Japanese restaurants harder than others and liberally handing out B's. I doubt the standards of all of the places hit with a B in the Chelsea area were that bad.

  5. It's pretty good. For quick sushi it is good, but personally if New York had a Wegmans I would pick that over Sushi 21. They don't have some of the staple types of sushi that most places offer which was a turn off for me. Overall though friendly service and they do a good job making the sushi they provide.

  6. Extreme late day 5pm lunch, hunger pangs strike hard where I claim my native Asian cuisine.  Sushi 21 sits on 21st Street / 7th Avenue in Chelsea where sushi galore inhabits as well as Bento Box.  My all-time favorite Bento Box has been skimmed as it does not contain shrimp, only Gyoza, white rice of my chicken Tonkatsu at $6.95.  Fresh and plentiful for lunch, nevertheless I inhaled the whole thing for seating is ample.  Service is efficient but rather stolid of a hostile environment to customers.

    Seating is clean in a brightly lit atmosphere.  Japanese magazines and newspapers inhabit the shelves.
