River Japanese Cuisine - Flushing

It's been quite a few years since I've been to this downtown Flushing location. I'm a regular at their Springfield Blvd location and sometimes even go to the Westbury, Long Island take out counter. Arrived at exactly 5:15 pm and wait by the front counter. Sushi chef sees me, makes eye contact but does not acknowledge or even gestures to any of the staff. I continue to stand there humming to myself bom bom bom doo doo dah lol. Finally, after another few minutes, I decided to call the restaurant from my phone and the ring could be heard throughout the restaurant as it was pretty empty. Finally, an employee comes to the front and picks up the phone. I said I'm here while looking looking at him. Don't worry, I'm still respectful. I get seated and have to wait another 5 to 7 minutes before anyone even checks on me. After ordering, the food is comparable to their other locations but I would say very slightly better. The decor here is definitely better as it got that darker tone with the dark wood look and lanterns. Feels more authentic. They even got giant DragonBall figures here. Kinda cool. Sometimes a better decor will make me believe that the food tastes better lol.

店里全是DJ，对于想安静吃个便饭的人来真的听的头皮发麻！！！！还有上菜速度慢的跟狗一样，喝汤都喝饱了

Do not bring kids here. They will charge them as adult prices. My 8 year old was charged as adult price. Smh. Cause apparently it's base on height and my 8 year old was at adult price height, even though she's just average height for 8 year olds. Will definitely not be coming back here again. What a ripoff.

Good place! Fast and friendly service. The food is delicious. This is the second time we have come here. Now is where we will go after we come to the area.

An excellent dining option for friends. Japanese restaurants are great, with favorable prices and delicious food! Never let you down.

Constantly ignoring customers requests. 10 sushi selected on menu they serve you four, and the waiter takes forever to serve the food. Not a good way to do a all-you-can-eat business. The food was good tho.
