Taro Sushi
“The taste of the monkfish liver is enhanced and complemented with the addition of scallions, some seaweed, and their ponzu sauce.”
“In short, this is the best sushi Ive had in Brooklyn and their $40 Omakase offers one of the best sushi values anywhere in the 5 boroughs.”
“I enjoyed a sashimi assortment as my main course, and you could really taste the absolute freshness of the fish.”

Solid. Not the best ever but I think that's my fault for not being more adventurous.
True, the prices are reasonable for quality sushi in Park Slope, but if you want to spend less than $15 on takeout your options aren't all that fancy.
Got a tofu teriyaki box. It came with miso soup, some white rice, and steamed vegetables. It came in that thick brown Asian teriyaki sauce which defeated the purpose of eating tofu and vegetables. Much too heavy for what I thought would be a lighter meal. But, again, my fault for not ordering it on the side.
Also had the eel roll with avocado. Again, it was tasty, but I'd recommend going bigger for their special rolls.
Spent $17 and filled up. Will come back to try other things.
Really fantastic, we'll priced sushi! I've walked by Taro for years and never stopped in until last night and was shocked to find its by far the best sushi I've had in Brooklyn.
From the live oyster to the chef's special appetizer to the various rolls I had, they were all extremely fresh and tender. I can't wait to go back.
Great lunch special for the area.
Good selection of fresh sushi and hot entrees.
Will be sure to add this to my list of regular spots.
Plenty of seating during the lunch hour rush.
Quick service!
Go here! I think hands down best sushi in this area!!! Amazing quality every time. We usually get a la carte sushi you cannot get at one of those "americanized" sushi places. We love their specials and uni here is fantastic!! If you are a sushi lover and aren't afraid to try something other than Philadelphia roll this place is for you!
Just thinking about this place makes my mouth watery… Yum!
I really enjoyed the nigiri Omakase, although I was a bit confused about the difefrence between the itamae Omakease (12 pieces) and the Edomae nigiri ( 9 pieces) other than the quantity…, so… I went with the Itamae. I enjoyed the snapper, the hamachi, the Aji and the Chu-Toro. Top notch, friendly service and a decent value. I was satisfied and happy I finally stumbled into Taro after trying to numerous random times. If you are not into simplicity like I am, there is an extensive menu. I approve and recommend based on the high quality expectations they obviously strive to achieve.
Boo. Really disappointing.
We ordered a nice variety of rolls and none were particularly great. The fish to rice ratio was disappointing and much of it didn't taste particularly fresh. The TOKUJYO MAKI was the greatest disappointment: it was the reason we chose to order from Taro and it really missed the mark. Virtually invisible portion of toro and the uni was gross. I LOVE uni and this was not the fresh, heavenly foie gras of the sea that I've come to expect from the best uni sources. This was fishy, slimy…blech.
They were also extremely ungenerous with the ginger. Two dime bags worth of ginger for 5 rolls? Puh-lease.
Nope, we will not order from Taro again. Real disappointment.
One of the best places in brooklyn for sushi. Their prices are reasonable. And gosh, their food is so fresh, whether it be the fish, the uni or the oysters. They have fatty tuna on the menu almost everyday. But im not normally a big fan of tuna, so here's my list of must tries:
– kumamoto oysters: fresh! Seasoned well! And limited daily so come early or call ahead if youre planning to have them.
– uni appetizer: hands down the best uni ive ever had. They give one portion of maine uni and one portion of california uni. It's always so good i cant decide whch one is better. But keep in mind that uni is an acquired taste to begin with.
– hand rolls: i just love their rice and fresh seaweed. It's served right aftr it's made from the bar, so there's a good crunch from the seaweed n the rice is still warm. I normally get the spicy scallop cuz it's simply delicious. Regardless, it wont come limp and soggy in your hands.
– need more ideas? I would try their hamachi lover set or the salmon lover set. Trust me, im a regular here.
We checked out Taro Sushi on a Saturday evening and were very happy with our experience there. The staff sat us immediately and were attentive throughout. We ordered the gyoza (steamed pork dumpling) to start and then three rolls to share. My favorite was the mountain roll which was stacked vertically (to look like a mountain I think?) and composed of spicy tuna, avocado, and yellowtail. The Karen roll (shrimp tempura topped with spicy tuna and avocado) was also delicious. For the price we were very satisfied with the quality of food we received. Definitely the best bargain on sushi we have found in the area so far. They have some good looking lunch specials which we will plan to try next time we can come during the day! A perfect place to grab a bite before heading to an event at Barclays!
