Haiku Sushi

We came in on a Sunday for lunch here. The owner/staff were kind and offered fun new suggestions we enjoyed. We have come many times before both for dine-in/take-out and can always expect a satisfying experience.

The staff at Haiku are so welcoming and warm! The food was fresh and clearly had a homemade care to it. The restaurant itself is clean and the decor calls to a classic vibe of a delicious hometown sushi place. Definitely enjoyed my first time here, I'll be back!

Ken and his wife are the family owners of Haiku. Sometimes their son is the busboy. We dine there frequently because they have the best menu, with the freshest ingredients. Been eating Japanese food for 65 years everywhere, NYC, Cal., New Jersey, Chicago, Colorado, etc. Their fish is ALWAYS fresh! The rolls are amazing! Not the most enticing dining room, not super fast service. But we come to enjoy a comfortable environment in a casual manner. Can't eat atmosphere or shove food down as fast as possible. North forkers know Haiku very well, while it is still a secret to people on the south fork. Easily the greatest value value among Japanese restaurants anywhere. HNY & merry xmas Dr. Norman Bartner

We had such an amazing experience while dining here. My girls were craving sushi after a long drive and this hit the spot. They were very accomodating and everything tasted fresh and delicious. My favorite was the Angel roll, it was so good. Will definitely be coming back.

Super delicious Sushi rolls and Mongolian beef and hibachi rice. Everything we ate was amazing and the owner was so sweet.

The waiter was so rude, then she said I’m the owner. Like I don’t care who is the owner. I come here to eat and pay for it. If you don’t have an attitude to service should serve even if is your place. We wait around 40 minutes for our food. The ramen was awful. I won’t go back

I was craving sushi & this place caught my eye. Loved how the exterior of this restaurant was like a secret garden. Love nature vibes. Small aquarium inside. 🦋 good atmosphere, enough space between tables. 🦋 hot tea was good 🦋 whoa! Roll was good! 🦋 autumn roll was good! 🦋 the Godzilla was amazing!!! Met the owner , she was attentive & thorough. Overall highly recommend, definitely will come back when in the area. 🦋 there’s a cash vs credit card difference

Haiku is my go to place for sushi. I have tried several different rolls, and all are so great, but the Autumn roll is my personal favorite. When you walk in it feels warm and inviting. The owners seem very friendly, and the service is great, I highly recommend this restaurant!

Everything was delicious but the staff made the experience exceptional! The owner was so accommodating and nice. He personality was so warm and welcoming! The food tasted fresh and delicious except for the general tso chicken. Not sure what part of the chicken that was but i just wasn't a fan. . I'm happy that my husband and I decided to dine here and support this establishment!

STAY AWAY! The service completely ruined what should have been a nice meal. Our server was extremely unprofessional and inattentive. I was never given a fork, even after waiting quite some time, and I asked for soup twice and never received it. On top of that, she stood uncomfortably close to us every time she came to the table, which made the experience awkward and unpleasant. As if that wasn't enough, she kept complaining about her husband to us--as if we knew him or wanted to hear personal issues while trying to eat. It was bizarre and inappropriate. I cannot stress enough how terrible the service was and how much it negatively impacted the entire experience. The food might have had potential, but the service alone ensures I will not be returning. Truly a weird, uncomfortable, and awful experience.

Best sushi on the island and good price!! amazing service and kind owner! best shrimp tempura roll

Delicious sushi and friendly, fast service. Reasonable prices too! Will definitely go here again.

Ordered a 3 roll lunch special. For $15, it came with a choice of soup or salad. The food was good! Quick takeout service, nice staff. I'm not sure what the salad dressing was, it wasn't a typical ginger salad dressing. Everything was fresh, and good. The smoked salmon in the Alaska roll wasn't the best though, it was on the bland side. Otherwise no complaints.

Great fresh Sushi The godzilla is Amazing I have never are there. Always take out perfect every time

Absolutely great place with amazing food. Been meaning to stop here for a while since I moved into town and regret that it took me so long. Friendly staff, good service and off the hook food. Highly recommend.

Consistent and delicious! I order whenever I'm in town and it never disappoints. Love that they have delivery too!

5 star rating rightly earned by this wonderful establishment. Had stopped in for lunch and ordered the chicken teriyaki box and a green tea. The green tea was amazing and much better than what you normally get at other sushi spots. What really put it over the top was the service , the staff were warm and very welcoming with a good sense of humor. If you are in riverhead I would recommend stopping by.

the seafood was very fresh and delicious. only complaint was owner was outside smoking and when she returned in the place smelled of cigarettes. also, debris from outside, leaves etc. in the entrance did not give a nice first impression. but, that has no bearing on the food or service which were both very good, plentiful and reasonably priced. we will return.

Great Sushi. Nice time. Had the spicy tuna roll. One of the best ones I ever had. Will absolutely go back. Seaweed salad was also great.

The chicken was butt. Tasted funny. Sushi was not fresh. Waitress sat down at the table. Very dark room.

This place has a wide selection of sushi. Tried a few rolls and they were all amazing! Service was great and the owners are very nice as well. Highly recommend!

Family run casual ambience . Owner helpful with the menu. Other owner came by to chat and introduce himself. Decent food. Nice presentation. We got a variety of rolls and Chirashi

Found this gem on a random Tuesday and decided to order. The food is delicious and fresh! I've been here multiple times always and it's always been a great experience. Will be coming back for sure.

Me and my friends been here since highschool the owners are so sweet and the food right is amazing I definitely recommend coming here !!!

Great sushi place when visiting the Hamptons area. Came with colleagues and left satisfied.

Bento box chicken teriyaki top tier. Love this place. Zucchini could be cut a little thinner but that doesn't take place of the taste. Sushi was fresh and great tasting.

I always have a hard time posting negative reviews. This is one time I really need to make an exception . We ate here prior to attending a show at the Suffolk theatre . The good : The sushi was passable . They have an extensive menu as well . The bad : It's kind of a hole in the wall. The entrance is off an alley . There is a fish tank and that's the extent of the ambience . It's small and cramped and certainly not a great date night place . The service was extremely slow . We were told they were very busy , but at least have a smile when you are in the service industry . I felt as though we had done them a favor by dining there . Was it just a bad night ? Maybe . But I wouldn't go back .

Very friendly and kind owner. Introduced herself and felt very welcoming. Made great recommendations which I took. Ordered the panko crusted tuna roll and the autumn roll as per her recommendation. Both amaaazing and fresh! Will be back for sure.

Went here and the service was awful I drank all of my water and never got a refill and on top of that everyone else at my table got served their food way before me by the time I got my food everyone else was already done with their food and I just had to take it to go. Then as we were leaving I did not tip because of my experience and the lady who was working said no tip? why would you not tip? I ALWAYS tip when someone is amazing I always tip because thats how it should be but with service like that I felt there was no reason to tip and to get questioned why is crazy.

12/10 experience. I went on Memorial Day with date and ordered a bunch of House rolls. Not going to lie it took a bit of time for the food to come (20mins) but I enjoyed the time to chat with my company. The miso soup was the best I've had and the sushi was amazing amazing and presented well. Came with plenty of ginger on the side too, so bonus points. Was a memorable experience and I strongly suggest to at least give it a try. I want to go back again and again.

Dining at this restaurant is like having supper with family! The sushi is fresh and the rolls are unique and generous! The owners are welcoming and create a personal atmosphere!! I'm so glad that they are in our hood!

What was supposed to be a nice date night with my boyfriend turned into a disaster, all because of the incredibly rude hostess. She denied me a drink before I even had the chance to order, was inattentive the entire time, and had a terrible attitude. But the worst part? As we were leaving, she practically kicked us out, yelling at us just because we had to use the family bathroom. I've always appreciated how kind and welcoming the staff are at Japanese restaurants, but this was the complete opposite!

excellent food, great price! had the sashimi deluxe .... SUPER fresh, nicely displayed and excellent taste! Nice to meet the owner, Maryanne who clearly enjoys meeting and greeting her patrons. definitely will return ... oh, and the hot green tea with Jasmine was a really nice surprise!! be sure to have it!!

What a great place to have stopped here for dinner! Marianne the owner is amazing and so friendly. The sushi was the best we have had in a long long time. We mentioned my bday was the next day and as we were leaving she gave us a sake bottle .. so sweet and thoughtful! Thank you for making us feel so special

Food: The food was mostly good but could have been better. Service: The woman (our server) was a bit weird and rude. She also was sitting down next to us as she took our order. Decoration: The restaurant looked very sketchy from the decorations. Cleanliness: It was pretty dirty. There was a table that just had a bunch of junk on it and another table had an opened bag of chips on it.

I loved it here and will go back! The food is so fresh and delicious. The service and presentation is wonderful!! Its a cute place w fabulous amience and friendly service staff. Reasonable prices also!! Can't wait to go back! Jane

Dropped in for lunch again, and I have to say this is the absolute best sushi restaurant on the Northfork when everybody else is overpriced and giving small pieces of fish this place delivers the freshest invest food, and the owner is always very.

We loved it! The owners are quirk, warm and welcoming. Our luncheon meal was superb. Well worth a stop at this lovely restaurant if you are visiting Riverhead.

Just had the pleasure of eating dinner at Haiku and I can't wait to go back! The restaurant is owned by the nicest family who made amazing recommendations, all were amazing and they make you feel like you're family (or good friends) I can't wait to go back, I highly recommend the Autumn Roll, Godzilla Roll and ask Ken the owner or his beautiful wife to surprise you! I promise you won't regret it...oh and the desserts looked amazing too...next time we will try to leave room.

Went through a nondescript door on the side of the building to enjoy a very nice lunch special with my daughter. Had the 3 roll special with Miso soup. The rolls were delicious and the soup very well done, nicely flavorful and not salty. The owner and staff were friendly. Had a very nice lunch for a reasonable price.

This is our go to place for Sushi in Riverhead. The owners and staff are extremely attentive and welcoming. We've been here about 5-6 times and we've never been disappointed. Their Sushi and Sashimi dishes plus their special rolls are delicious. They do get very busy and I have never found them to be anything other than nice to patrons.

Excellent food! I don't recall the names of the sushi rolls that my husband and I had, but they were amazing as is the jalapeño sauce, delicious on top of the beef fried rice. I highly recommend the food. They just redid the floors and tables. Looking good... I think they are doing some more updates over the next few months as well.

This place is very fresh sushi place. Im surprised this place isn't talked about more in Riverhead. Will definitely be back. The vibe is very cute for a date which is what I went there for.

Pros: The sushi is solid and not expensive. Cons: The service is slow and not the most friendly. The entrance is not in the front on Main Street and so you have to find the nondescript door. If I didn't see someone go through the door first, I most likely would have gone somewhere else.

After recommendations from two friends we decided to try Haiku Sushi. We started with the rock shrimp appetizer which was their version of a bang bang shrimp. It was a generous portion and we enjoyed it very much. We ordered a soup with udon noodle, a Godzilla roll and a queen roll. We also ordered a side of sautéed bok choy. The owner offered to split the soup in the kitchen for us after presenting the beautiful bowl. That was wonderful, we would not have done it justice by ourselves at the table. I must say we were pleasantly surprised with the food quality, presentation and the service. We will be revisiting haiku sushi in the near future.

This was such a good experience. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant. Everything we ate tasted great even the homemade salad dressing! The owner was so sweet and she was very welcoming.

Amazing restaurant run by a cute couple who were extremely friendly and accommodating. The rolls were top notch and I would say it's the best local sushi restaurant.

Always a pleasant, attentive and quality experience. A good mod stop heading from nyc to east end or on your way back to the city.

Definitely with a visit if you are in the area. The owners are a lovely couple with great service. The food came out quickly and my family (including my toddler kids) and I enjoyed it. We will definitely be back.

Living in Riverhead for over 20 years my family and I have been spoiled to have a great sushi spot just minutes from home. Haiku never disappoints. It is my go to place . Everything is super fresh and the owners are nicer than you can imagine. Run , dont walk! Get here and enjoy!

Excellent sushi rolls. The rolls menu is actually too extensive, but everything we tried was delish. Will try some sushi/sashimi next time. I do wish they had a better sake selection by the glass Vs just the one which is not a great one, but the food made up for it. We will definitely be back many times.

Ken and MaryAnn run a stellar business! Devotion to serving excellent food doesn't even begin to describe. We love their sushi menu but tonight we ordered Chinese food and when I described what I was looking for Kenny was all over it! Fresh veggies with shrimp and brown sauce on the side was so fresh. The al dente vegetables were cooked to perfection. I will not order from anywhere else! Thank you so much!

Went there last Thursday on a lunch date and had a cockroach walk across our table underneath our plates. It was disgusting. I've never experienced that in a restaurant before. We tried to crush it in a napkin and the napkin fell to the floor and the roach crawled out and needed to be stepped on. We let the staff know and they were very dismissive of it. Disgusting

Everything was delicious, staff was very friendly. I wish I lived closer I would be coming here a lot more often.

We went on a Tuesday night and it seemed like there was only one server. Service was a little slower than expected for a weeknight but food was still good! I would have liked the hibachi fried rice to be a little more fried & beef cubes instead of pepper steak beef. The Manhattan roll was delicious

My friend and I were visiting Long Island from Queens a few weeks ago for some wine tasting and decided to go to Haiku afterward for sushi. We read all the great reviews and had to give it a try! The sushi was so fresh and delicious (wish I could recall what we ordered - sorry!), and we even had the toto which wasn't on the menu, but my friend who is more experienced than I am with sushi and sashimi had requested it. The owner accommodated us and said that they didn't always get the toto (tuna belly), and let me tell you what a delicacy it was! Literally so fresh it melted in my mouth! We drank cold sake with our food and enjoyed the fried ice cream (heavenly!) for dessert. Thank you to the lovely owners/couple of Haiku Sushi for an excellent first time experience! All of your positive reviews are most certainly warranted! See you soon, Susan.

Ordered takeout. Everything tasted fresh and was presented well. I read the negative reviews and was hesitant to give this place a try at first, but I'm glad I did. The King's Roll was very very good! Highly recommend. Next time I'm in the area I will definitely be back!
