Haiku Asian Bistro

Incredible hospitality. The sushi is really good. The outdoor dining experience is absolutely beautiful and relaxing. Despite the minor language barrier between servers, the food was really good. The service was on point and they even allowed us to dine until we were the last table to depart. Highly recommend this lovely Asian Bistro in Bronxville. The Five Stars is awarded based on incredibly hospitality, food quality, presentation and overall dining experience.

Came in for sushi, but ended up with a hybrid warm/cold dish dinner. I found the sushi to be fresh and tasty and I imagine all of their rolls/speciality rolls to be just as good. I surprisingly liked the eggplant. The sauce was just right and the eggplant was cooked to perfection for such a dish. Combine with a side of fried rice! Service is prompt, attentive, though slightly less tactful than to be expected. Experience has taught me that it’s nothing personal, it’s just ethno-cultural efficiency.

I came here for my hour lunch break at 3:30 I was seated immediately and served. I ordered the lunch special for $18 with the small bottle of sake. Sushi was really good. The sake was even better.

Went for lunch with friend of mine who found hair in her food, attached to sushi. Did not eat and notified staff. Was told “this is a long hair–my chefs don’t have long hair.” Meanwhile, they have plenty female waitstaff with long hair. Sad they dismissed customers, used to be one of my favorite places.

I bought some brown rice and the minute I open the lid, the overpowering foul odor smacked me in the face. Please NEVER buy food at this place. They are not clean.

Great sushi! Especially the spicy crab which is not that spicy and actually really tasty! They also have really good wontons and skewers!

Love the sushi and sashimi here! Fish is excellent quality and continues to impress me. The yellowtail and jalapeño in ponzu sauce is a particular stunner, and the fresh scallops are light and delicious. Would recommend going in a big group like we did--more things to try and more food to share!

Service was great and staff were friendly. Came just as the start of the dinner rush on a Saturday and service was great. They were definitely on their game. Had the sushi dinner and wife got pad thai. Sushi was excellent, pad thai was a little heavy on the fish sauce - personally I like it that way but it could be a bit much depending on how 'americanized' you like it. Also, the three people behind the sushi bar looked like they meant business. Would love to come back without the little one sometime for the omakase.

Came here for dinner on a Thursday night with my friends and it was very delicious. We were seated quickly and even got to pick where we at because they offered us a table more inside so we weren't called by the door. The service is so fast here blows my mind but everything came out super good super fresh very delicious overall I've been here multiple times and it's really nice. I've actually never eaten in here before and this was the first time I've ever dined in and it was really nice. Everything was really clean, but it is a smaller restaurant so they do get busy fast if they are busy but on a Thursday night, it was very spacious.

Haiku. What the heck is this? So I ordered via Ubereats and asked them to add crunch? Who hired your sushi chef? I gave them two stars because they're usually decent but this is a joke lol

Haiku in Bronxville use to be pretty good. It was sold or something and now it is terrible. Really a shame because we would order out or go at least once a week sometimes more.

We love the lunch special. Service is gray, rolls are delicious and soups are good, love their hot & sour soup

Very rude staff and thats when you could find someone to wait on you. I had to ask for my edamame to be tossed in sea salt. Isn't it supposed to be tossed in sea salt? I won't be going there again.

Terrible customer service! Ordered through Uber Eats app this evening. I called the restaurant first to ask if they could replace the chicken in the pad thai and another dish with tofu as it is lent and we have a vegan. They said to just put it in the special directions, which I did, very clearly. When the order arrived, the pad thai had chicken. I called and they said their chef had made the mistake but they couldn't help me that I had to go through uber eats and get a refund. Okay, mistakes happen. I asked if I could order the correct dish through them since she said they do have delivery within 3 miles. We are 1.7 miles away (I looked it up). I didn't l want to pay the fee and delivery for uber again since I'd paid it once already. She said no. I said I'd pay for the order since I would get a refund through uber I just wanted to put in an order by phone and was already told they would deliver within three miles. She wouldn't take my order and said I was outside their delivery area, which I am not. I was really nice and patient on the phone and tried to explain what I wanted thinking maybe she didn't understand. But she just tried to get me off the phone and kept saying to contact uber eats. So now after an hour and half, $85, and doing everything I should have done with patience and politeness, one person in the family still doesn't have dinner, has to wait another 45 minutes for arrival (from another place of course), and we have to pay fees and a tip again. Never again Haiku!!!

Went here with a friend after a day at NYBG. Not a bad little place for something quick and inexpensive. The chicken teriyaki was more like a light sesame-glazed chicken with caramelized onions but the portion of chicken was generous and it was surprisingly good.

Food was good I wish they would have bento box as I thought Japanese restaurant would but they have a bit Chinese and Thai menu also. Price was ok and service was good. Ambiance was also good. Not bad for a quick dining.

Chicken with bok choy was very dry and salty. Ran out of the specials during our Labor Day weekend visit. Overpriced in general.

Cozy ambiance. Great location. Lovely staff the hot and sour soup was excellent. Full of ingredients. Sushi was great quality at a fair price. Will certainly return.

This place hits the spot for your local sushi craving. The staff there are all very nice and the food comes fast. We ordered the peppercorn squid and tempura mix for our appetizers and both were very crispy and delicious. For my main dish, I ordered the sushi and sashimi lunch when cam out to around $17 dollars. The presentation was very nice and the sushi was fresh. Overall I enjoyed this restaurant and would highly recommend it. The prices for their regular dishes are quite expensive but the lunch or dinner specials are a pretty good deal.

Hey all! FYI something happened here. I mean it has taken a recent turn for the worse. I used to like everything here but the last few times something dramatic has changed to the food. I asked them what gives? They refuse to tell me why the recipes have changed. I wondered if they had a new manger or new chefs or new owner. But they give no info. All i can say is that they have been consistent for years and years and suddenly fell off. Food is horrible. Not just a little different. Completely different and bad food. So sad.

Sushi at this haiku is almost always better than the other locations. I wish they added the same things in their menu as the other locations though. Super good food!

As always Haiku bronxville is consistent. This isn't your what I call "fast food" Chinese it's a step above. Been getting Haiku for over 15 years and they've always been on it. Tried a new dish which was the Seafood Treasure Platter which I was looking for something not so thick and it was great! Did brown side and their ginger carrot salad (one of the best ginger carrot dressings). And 2 rolls which were great!

I was disappointed with last nights take out order. Some of my family ordered Sushi and California rolls that they raved about. I had Wonton soup that I did not care for. I enjoyed my 2 spicy spring rolls. I have to give it only 3 stars because my Sesame Chicken was severely overcooked. The flavor was there but when I saw how dark the chicken looked, I knew I was in trouble. Some of the large pieces that I cut in half were a little bit more edible. The smaller pieces were too tough to chew. I guess the bad chef was on and he made my dish unsatisfactory.

Another great place in Bronxville that I've walked passed dozens of times. Today, I had a sushi craving while at Bronxville, so I decided to give this place a try. I ordered the sushi/sashimi deluxe in addition to a California roll & an ocean roll and I was in Sushi bliss. The hot sake was smooth and delicious served at the right temperature. The service was amazing as I befriended the waiter who was a wonderful young man. Being that I often stop by "Slave to the Grind," I'll definitely be eating more Japanese food at Haiku

My go to local spot for fresh sushi and yummy Chinese food. The sushi is always on point. Great location, you can sit outdoors or in. The general tso chicken was favorite. Was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Also, the chicken wasn't overly battered.

Stopped in for dinner with some friends. Placed in the front section where the seating was falling apart and my area needed a wipe down. Overall, the food is decent and liked my crispy beef. What got me was my kids ordered salmon rolls and received california rolls. Rather than immediately correct the mistake, the server opted to question whether my boys ordered the right item, even though my friends and I heard all heard the same thing. Think I'll opt to order take out next time.

Had to take one star off for service. Not sure if it had anything to do with us sitting outside, but our waiter was HORRIBLE. We literally had to walk inside to get help, or knock on the window until someone pointed out to him that we needed assistance. There was no excuse for that type of service because the restaurant was NOT busy. He was either busy on his phone or with the host. Thankfully towards the end someone else took over our table. Life would've been so much better if we had that guy from the beginning. Other than that, the food was good. The seaweed salad is BOMB. Had to order 2. The cucumber saki is to die for!! We were desperate to find out where we could buy that for our homes. Lol. We ended up ordering too much food, but the weather was perfect for outdoor seating and we just wanted to have a good time.

Didn't get to go for a while because the place got weird after Covid closing the indoor dining, wasn't willing to actually get sick sitting out in the freezing cold for sesame chicken, but once they went back to normal, I was happy after every meal. The kani salad is a must for starters for me, followed by some sushi which I've always experienced to be fresh, and either sesame or general tsao chicken with white rice. The chicken is always good quality and cooked perfectly. The staff is always friendly. Just a good spot in general.

Rude staff as per usual . I placed a take out order and I forgot to ask for the chili sauce so when the male came to the front with my order I asked if I could please have a side of the chili sauce and he said " You should've told me earlier " . 8/10 times staff is rude and bothered.

A heads-up that I hope helps someone else: This restaurant overcharged us by about $15 and I caught it and mentioned it to the waitress when I gave her my credit card. To my shock, she processed the higher, fraudulent amount, then issued a "credit", then charged the correct amount. When I got home, there were TWO charges, one for the higher, fraudulent amount and one for the correct amount and NO credit. I contacted my bank and they said they would monitor it, but it would take some days before a credit can be issued. When I asked for the name of the manager, they said they didn't know it and that they wouldn't be in today at all. I am generously still giving a star as the food was not bad, although the broccoli (for both of us) was ice cold, as if fresh out of fridge. The soups and the general tso's chicken was fine.

This place was horrible, my girlfriend and I wanted to try this place for a while. Well we did and it just sucked. I ordered from a chefs roll. Basically wanted a California roll, but with shrimp. The waitress gave me a dirty look, and had to explain to her 3 times what I wanted. Well she of course gave me something different, and had some type of puree fish on top. It was not appetizing. My girlfriend ordered a chicken dish with rice. Well her salad dressing was bitter, her chicken was cold, which meant it was not made fresh, and rice was not good. We definitely won't be going back, and recommend, to others dine somewhere else.

There are a number of Haikus in Westchester - I've been to the ones in Scarsdale and White Plains but last night was my first time dining at their Bronxville location. The food at Haiku is good - it's fresh, tasty, and pretty consistent. The menu has a number of sushi, sashimi, and general Asian dishes. Last night we started with some shumai, gyoza, and Szechuan spicy wontons - all of which were great. For my main I had a combination of three rolls - spicy shrimp roll, shrimp avocado roll, and California roll. The rolls weren't up to par with what I've had at their sister locations, but was still good overall. Aesthetically, this is my least favorite Haiku - it's a small restaurant with a light wood-tone color scheme. I much prefer the darker wood tones found at Scarsdale and White Plains- they speak to me more, plus those dining rooms are much roomier. This place is good if you live in Bronxville since it's accessible, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come back here.

Found this place the other day. Very nice atmosphere inside and especially outside with the outdoor seating. friendly staff, good service, and the food was very good. Prices are very reasonable had sushi appetizer and lunch entree and was less than 20.00 before tip. Good quality food as well for these prices. Will definitely be back again. Right next door to Slave to the Grind coffee.

We did a delivery for dinner tonight and the prices have gone through the roof and you get so much less food. We paid $4.00 for extra vegetables for the Teriyaki Chicken....nothing came. So I called and they laughed saying "Yeah we don't put it on the side, we put it with the meal"...so the tiny bit of veggies is what you get regardless if you pay the regular fee or add the extras on. They have gone downhill over the years! Don't waste your money there. $24 for half a chicken breast, 4 pieces of broccoli and two tiny pieces of carrot. Awful. Don't eat here!

Went for lunch with a friend. He got spicy salmon roll and I got tempura, crispy rice and miso soup. The food was mediocre at best (I didn't like mine). But the reason im writing a 1 star review is that the waitress charged my card an extra $10 which i had to dispute. check your cc reciepts people! and stop patronizing restaraunts who steal from you

Came here on a Friday night with my BFF for a nice dinner. The restaurant was lively but small and they wedged us between two other tables when there was more room further back. We were all bunched up front...guess they want to look good to the passers by. We had the edamame and gyoza and I must say that the gyoza was the best I have ever had in my life. Pure perfection......would go back ONLY for these. I ordered some sushi and was thrilled to hear that they had Uni (Sea urchin) so I ordered two pieces with some other selections. The uni was slimy and creepy looking. I put on my big girl panties and went to work on my sushi plate. Everything else was pretty standard but the uni was by far the most repulsive thing I have ever tasted in my life. Bitter with the worst flavor I have ever experienced. We all know that sushi can be a crap shoot but both pieces were equally disgusting. I didn't want to offend my BFF who suggested this restaurant so I did what I thought was best......spit it into my napkin and the rest that was on the plate I buried under the veggie spiral they have for decoration and pretended everything was fabulous. Paid the bill and left and would only order gyoza from there via take out in the future if I ever get an insane gyoza craving......doubtful but it could happen.

My favorite dish Red Curry Seafood pot is now made with filler foods like potatoes ,a whole lot of frozen fried tofu (iknow this because it was not cooked completely)shrimp and mussels but where is the pieces of fish? The previous owner gave so much more. I feel this owner wants to charge approximately $40 and give you his cheapest food covered in a delicious curry sauce. I won't be returning until they get their act together, if ever. The people at the front desk lack grace ,gratitude,and professionalism.

I'm a long time customer but unfortunately they keep switching cooks owners and so forth, I asked to order shrimp with broccoli and to add grilled onions, waitress pointed out that this specific meal, I thought it would be similar so I opted to try and it was absolutely gross. I sat it to the side because I just couldn't eat it and she came back to ask if I liked it and I told her no it had a really bad taste, so I proceeded to try my son sesame chicken which was ridiculously hard, unfortunately today none of the food taste fresh and I think we just need to skip here for a bit as the food and service has dwindled, the waitress went as far to say well we can't switch it when I didn't even ask, once something taste bad, I don't proceed to try any thing else so maybe try lunch a different cook could be on board but we are here at 6 and I have to look for an alternate for dinner, a waste of money .

Have been trying their entrees lately and have been really liking the food so far! Shrimp teriyaki and Salmon teriyaki are really good! Would also really recommend their Kani salad. I've downgraded the start because this place is very INCONSISTENT. It's usually Hit or Miss over there.

Tempura shrimp were not fresh - the shrimp were mushy and disintegrated in your mouth - should have had some texture - kind of disgusting.

I ordered takeout from here - it really deserves 3.5 stars, but it's a pandemic, so I'll round up to 4 stars instead of down to 3 stars. The sushi that we ordered was excellent and was the best part of the meal. The soups were also tasty, but one of them had a small piece of wood in it that I almost swallowed. The Pad Thai came with a huge portion (enough to eat for two meals), but it simply wasn't very good. I would have preferred a smaller portion size for the same price but a better meal. We ordered delivery, and our entire order was correct.

Passion sushi was very creative and delicious! We got the seaweed salad (recommend), gyoza (solid but not a must-have), geisha, passion and daily special sushi's (all really good). I loved the green tea too. Good outdoor seating adog friendly. Update: this became one of our favorite summer restaurants. The wonton soup is really nice (but no the Szechuan wonton appetizer--too oily) and we love the outta control roll, passion roll, geisha roll and nippon roll. The seaweed salad is of course yummy and fresh. It's easy most nights to get a table outdoors and the service is pretty fast! I really don't know why this place doesn't have better reviews.

Fairly busy restaurant, luckily we got in before the rush of dinner. The sesame chicken was tasty, good crunch and not soggy like some sesame chicken and general Tso chicken I've tried in the past. The sushi and sashimi were good, nothing that stands out but good nonetheless. The pineapple shrimp dish didn't have as many shrimp as I've liked but they were decent sized at least. Overall a good place for the area.

This place should should allow pets. My friends Pad Thai smelled like dog food and cat kibble. The sushi smelled like a brothel and tasted like the East River. Our waitress was constantly reaching over us and continuously stared. Then after a while she disappeared and some other man (maybe a manager/owner) began to harass us and stare at us which made us very uncomfortable. As we payed our bill he began to get oddly close and was watching us sign our bills. As we stand up and put our coats on he pushes my friend out of the way to grab the bill to see how much of a tip we left for him and his crappy staff. (We left a 20% tip) This man had the audacity to ask us if the service was bad and told us that we should've left more money. Never eat at this place unless you want ring worm Ps the bathroom smelled like provolone cheese.

This is not a real Japanese sushi restaurant, Thai restaurant, nor a Chinese restaurant. This is a Malaysian restaurant that serves Malaysian food advertised as "Asian Fusian" whatever that means. Other than the Malaysian curry, every other Asian dish I order tastes like Malaysian food, It's not authentic Chinese or Japanese. Stick with the curry!

Both me and my husband work in the restaurant industry so we know how hard it can be, however I was super disappointed with the service here and as a result, my dinner. There were only 4 tables seated (myself and my husband included) when we arrived, but yet 5 different people came to our table. There was something floating in my water, there was one gnat flying around us throughout half of our dinner and another was stuck on our appetizer plate. One of the ladies working there even grabbed my half full glass of water (ignoring my husbands empty one) to fill it up. It also took over 15 minutes after we finished our meal for someone to bring us the check and another good 10 minutes for someone to pick up our card. The whole experience was kind of bizarre.

Their food is decent, but their service is horrendous. They are big on take out, and every-time I've ordered, I have experienced a significant wait, but tonight I literally waited an hour for ONE spicy tuna roll. I am sorry but that is unacceptable. If you know you are that busy with take out, hire another sushi chef. Never again.

This is a great option for take out. They do an excellent job delivering quickly and the food is consistently good. Eating in on the other hand is only ok. It is noisy and the tables are Close together and it is not really a relaxed place to be. But I do recommend it for takeout.

Cute little place. The service was attentive and it was very busy. There was no wait at 7pm on a Saturday night. I got the edamame to start which tasted as expected and then for an entree got the spicy tuna roll which was delicious and the white tiger roll which was also delicious but fell apart when I was using my chopsticks so I had to use my hands. Overall great place, would go again.

Dinner for 6 cost $225. At 940 pm we're finishing our wine. The hostess came over and told us "we close at 930". Very rude. Won't go back. You shouldn't either.

My favorite Asian restaurant! I always get the chicken satay and rice which are great! I've been coming for 15 years and it's consistent.

Our family has been coming to Haiku for years and the food is always on point. I am not sure why ppl say service is bad. We always encounter friendly service from the staff, beginning to end. We love the jumbo sweet shrimps, yellow tail, california uni and toro. Rolls: jalapeño yellowtail roll, dancing eel roll, futomaki roll Hot food: Seafood soup, miso soup, crispy shredded beef, shrimp tempura, shrimp fried rice, black pepper steak cubes, sauteed broccoli with garlic. We can't wait to come back again.

Went here with my husband for lunch. He asked the waitress if he could just have a shrimp roll. She got nasty and irritated because she didn't see it on the menu. When we got our food my sesame chicken was cold. Ginger salad dressing wasn't good. My husband received something he didn't even order. Wanted a regular shrimp roll, she gave him something different. Never asked if everything was okay, received drink refills or more water. When she brought the check she slammed it on the table. Service was horrible, very rude. Do not recommend this restaurant.

Haiku is solid!! When I first movedvto town, got takeout every week. Over time, I gravitated more to other places in town, but recently, rediscovered haiku. Its a solid choice.

Came here a few days ago on the way to the coffee pub next door and decided to give it a try. The decor is nice but the entrance gets a lot of wind so we were all pretty much sitting in what felt like an ice box. They should seriously consider adding heaters or fixing their HVAC system. Boy do we regret coming here for dinner. The steak was so bland that my husband used some of the carrot dressing from his salad to flavor it up.... They didn't use any sauce to prepare it nor salt/pepper. and what can I say about the Shrimp Pad Thai. It was terrible. The shrimps tasted like some metallic weird iodine taste. I was very disappointed. Maybe it was in the freezer too long or improperly stored/length of storage. The only thing I enjoyed was the wonton in garlic sauce. The server was nice but she forgot part of my husband's order so he had to wait 15 minutes for it before eating.

Maybe I have a high nose now when going to Japanese Sushi Bars but when the menu has all these weird special roll concoctions it makes me think it's catered to those that are ignorant to what sushi really is. If you're getting offended stop reading and move along cuz it's only going to get worse...but I'm a nice person though, really! I beweave that a REAL sushi fan is someone who finds sashimi just as delectable as sushi and vice versa. When I came here for dinner with my friend on a Sunday evening, we were seated immediately. The restaurant was pretty empty but the crowd was lively and so were the servers. I looked around to see what everyone ordered and instead of sushi, they ordered entrees! Tre bizarre. Not a good sign especially since this is described as a sushi bar. There were A LOT of special rolls that ranged from $12-$16. Creative yes, but I guess I was looking for a more simplified, authentic menu. Also, they had a small sashimi section. HUH? Another conundrum. They do offer regular rolls from $5-$12 ($12 for the toro roll - which they didn't have for the night). Initially, I only wanted to order sashimi but after much speculation I ordered the spider roll, yellowtail jalapeno roll, spicy tuna sashimi and yellowtail sashimi. The sashimi was fresh but nothing to brag about. The spicy tuna sashimi looked like a red ball of mush placed on a hollowed out lime. HUH? Beers were $5 (Sapporo, Kirin Light or Tsing Tao). The bill came out to a total of $50 with tax and tip. We could have went into the city and paid less for better sushi. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...it's probably a duck.

Not good (in my opinion). We tried: Malaysian Curry with Tofu - mehhhh Pad Thai - mehhhh Mango Curry with Tofu - turned out it was a plate of barely cooked mangos and tofu...FAIL I asked for my dish to be medium spicy (Thai/Asian spices can sometimes be insanely hot so I was playing it safe). When tried my food I thought I could still kick it up a notch so I asked the waitress for some hot sauce on the side. She kind of freaked out and told me I should have just asked her to make it spicy when I ordered (ummm WTF!)
