If you like Hayashi on 82nd, you will like the midtown location. This location is catered towards the lunch crowd, but is a great spot for Japanese food at anytime. There are a variety of booths and tables with a small bar and large TV. It is a really trendy atmosphere. Great for happy hour, dates, lunch meetings, etc.
The food is not cooked in front of you, so do not expect a show. The menu is large and ranges from sushi (often touted as the best sushi in town) to hibachi and teriyaki entrees. There are great lunch specials! Check out the full menu here. I went with the hibachi chicken entree which ended up being a large amount food (I’m not complaining!). You are served Japanese onion soup, a salad, chicken, veggies, and rice (fried or steamed). We also had sushi – California Roll, Spicy Crab, and Tuna Roll – all of which were great!
