Best Thursday nights in Brooklyn 5 Star Rating - World class

I've never written a review for ANYTHING online but I love this place so much. I've eaten at Dish at least a dozen times and the food has been consistently outstanding. It's a very sleek cool Japanese and French fusion restaurant that knows how to do it right. I could NEVER eat sushi anywhere else in Brooklyn. I've tried many times but nothing compares. I always end up thinking I should have gone to Dish instead. Aside from the best sushi, the drink specials are the stuff of legends. They also have a lot to offer besides sushi. My favorite is the vegetable yaki udon with George's Filet. I've made many people try it too, so I know it's not just me. The servers know how to treat a good customer. Whenever I can't figure out what I want the bartender asks me a few questions and makes me just what I didn't even know I wanted. Even the valet guys are great! I just can't get enough of this place. It's trendy and upscale, but not in the snobby social climbing dead inside kind of way. Whenever I'm going out to eat with a food snob or someone I know is VERY picky, (specifically my cousin Shaun and my mom!) I take them here. They both love it.
Also, Thursday nights they have a different guest house dj every week and it's the real deal. The music is blasting on Fri and Sat nights too. So much fun. great crowd, great EVERYTHING.

Pros: Valet parking in Bay Ridge, which is as good as gold. Best House DJs around.
Cons: If you forget to make a reservation from Thurs through Saturday, you probably won't get seated.

Pros: food was fantastic, service was fast, staff was very friendly
Cons: just a little to dark for me, but everything else made up for it

Wonderful, unique rolls 5 Star Rating - World class

Don't settle for the run-of-the-mill piece of salmon at Dish. While plain pieces of sushi/sashimi are fresh and delicious (ok, grap a slice of Toro if available), the real treats here are the specialty rolls. In particular, the Firefighter (includes shrimp tempura and banana), Italian (includes lobster and sundried tomato) and Bushido (shrimp and mango with 3 sauces) are out of this world. Also impressive, the chef will make any roll you desire with brown rice!

Pros: Flavor, variety, decor
Cons: parking, crowded on weekend evenings

One of the better ways to relax on 3rd av.. 5 Star Rating - World class

Great place overall to relax after hard day's worth of work. I'd say the chef is far more creative than their direct competition on 3rd ave, nuevelle's pretentious crowd. Check out the patio and the dj on the weekends..very friendly atmosphere and competetive priced menu. Drinks on me!!

Worst Sushi... by far 1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

There is no way this guy desire that many good comments!!! I was there with my uncle whose visit me from California about a month ago, since there are a thousand of people rated them so well, so i went there. I ain't a cheap guy in which, i am treating my uncle so everything i picked were something good on the menu! 1st, i order 4 pieces of Amaebi, the prawns ain't fresh at all, and they were like $8 a piece! I ordered mostly "shisimi" & sushi, because i know if they are using the fresh ingredients, u could tell by the sushi rather than rolls, in which, nothing really up to an "average" standard! but guess what, they were like $4-5 PER PIECE! i also order a "crazy roll" which cost more than $10 but it is way too small for the price (yes, i think that's is how they name it crazy, because only the crazy people like me would order those). even the mojito, it is way too weak, i ain't a regular cocktail drinker, but i can say i can't feel any liquor at all. the bill came up to like $92, but i think we desire a bit better quality of food for that price we spent for ONLY 2 persons!!! I personally think that, their other competitors - Novelle & Bangkok Toyko do a way, way better job than them!
One other thing i like to mention, it is easy to find out whose is doing their own reviews, i have been using citysearch for awhile, i realize if one company have tons of reviews, but most of the reviewer ONLY has 1 citysearch review, then u know the people in the company made up their own!!! check this guy out, almost most of them are like that!!!

Pros: ambience
Cons: parking, worst sushi experience in my entire life for 32years!!!
