With its unpretentious atmosphere and budget-friendly prices, Aburi Sushi Bar in Williamsburg caters to everyone, regardless of their budget. During my visit, it was cool to see a diverse crowd enjoying their meals, from high school boys having a great time to two friends rewarding themselves after a workout.
Aburi Sushi Bar stands out as one of the best sushi spots in this neighborhood. Their commitment to quality shines through in every dish. For my lunch, I indulged in their salmon teriyaki special, which included a side of California rolls, a refreshing salad, and a generous serving of fresh miso soup. The salmon was tender, cooked to perfection, and the accompanying sauce struck a delicate balance without being overly sweet.
I also decided to try their Maki Combo B, consisting of spicy tuna, spicy salmon, and spicy yellowtail rolls. One thing to note is that this combo doesn't come with the typical drizzle of spicy mayonnaise on top, so be sure to request it on the side if that's your preference. Although not flawless, the rolls were still delectable and satisfying.
One aspect that pleasantly surprised me was the speed of service. I placed my order on Seamless, and in less than 15 minutes, it was ready for pick-up. This efficiency ensures that even those on a tight schedule can enjoy a delightful sushi experience without compromising their other commitments.
Aburi Sushi Bar not only does the job but excels at it. Whether you live in the area or passing through, if you're in the mood for fast, budget-friendly sushi, I recommend checking them out.
