Yummy Stick

A great spot to get a quick bite to eat! No seating or dine in as they are a small store front. Menu is simple so you won't get too overwhelmed. My favorite is the original and spicy salmon. The staff are super nice and efficient! The place does get crowded at lunch time depending on the day but I can usually get in and out withing 10-15 mins. You can pay card but there is a minimum.

Great little place to grab a sushi burrito. It’s a small restaurant so there’s no seating but it’s all run by a couple in the cutest store. Loved the spicy salmon burrito! I would highly recommend supporting your small local business!! Will be visiting again when I’m in NYC

Planned on taking a bite and keep the rest for dinner but… just couldn’t get enough. Ended up eating it in one go while walking to a park. Asked for less rice and it was just perfect for me. The fillings were generous, I ordered the Ninja Yummy Stick. Best $14 I’ve spent in NYC so far. Will get it again if I ever were in the area again.

Lovely lady serving the Sushi rolls. Original rolls are 5$, with extra's up to like 9$. Definitely worth the money and one of the better food spots for little money in Manhattan.

It's a small takeout window, just to take food to go. Delicious and simple snack on the go, healthy fast food. The very friendly staff tried to find a cooler soda for me on a hot day, for which I was very grateful.

come here if you want the best deal of chelsea, cheap $5-10 gimbap(s) that taste like heaven. very particular location in which you take the food directly from a little door, highly recommended!

Overall: 4.4 Wow, what an interesting type of meal. This spot is definitely made for the lunch hour folx that work in the area. And interesting variation of a hand roll. I liked it, but I didn’t love it. It was neither here nor there for me. I think I would have preferred sushi for the same price. The staff was nice, very direct. Not sure what I was expecting but it wasn’t this. I would probably try it again if I was craving it specifically.

Lovely and kind couple offering excellent kimbap at a more than reasonable price! Spam yummy stick is the best!!!

We arrived around 3 pm on a Saturday afternoon. It was freezing outside and yet there was still something of a crowd by this place. It is a hole in the wall spot in west village that is next to an apartment complex with several rolls to try. The rolls are closer to an uncut kimbap than a sushi but man were they fantastic. There are several sushi roll options to choose from ranging from the $5 classic to $15. All of which look fantastic. There is about an 8 dollar minimum for any credit card purchases. We ordered the classic and the spicy salmon. The classic stick was $5 and the spicy salmon was $8. They are served with a side of soy sauce. There is no place nearby to sit down to it's a bit awkward trying to eat with the sauce while standing up. Due to the immense cold we were camped out in an apartment lobby next door. The food took less than 10 minutes to be made. I personally loved the classic stick. Will definitely be back for the classic stick. Funny enough it tasted spicier (was not very spicy just a nice kick) compared to the salmon. They are not very filling. I feel like I can easily devour about 2 of them. Lovely and kind service. Love this place and will be back

Got the classic roll ($5) and spicy salmon roll ($8). Most of the other options range between $8-15. This reminds me more of a kimbap than a sushi roll. Food stall/stand so it is all to-go. The sauce in the classic roll was spicier than the one in spicy salmon. Quick service. Cannot beat the price for a sushi burrito / kimbap option. Minimum card payment is $8. Would definitely return!

I arrived just after 12 PM on a weekday and there were a few people waiting to order and a few people waiting for their orders. It is a small store front where you order at the door and wait for your order on the sidewalk. Since there was a small crowd it was easy to spot from down the street. The service was friendly and quick. I asked the person taking orders if she thought 1 was enough, and she recommended getting 2. I ordered the original and the spam yummy stick and only had to wait a few minutes before getting my food. The original came with crab, fried egg, house mayo, and spicy sauce. The spam came with spam, fried egg, spinach, carrot, and yellow radish. They also give soy sauce in a small container. I preferred the spam yummy stick but both were good and I was full after about 1 1/2. Overall this is a great spot if you need a quick meal on the go, but I wouldn't go out of my way if I wasn't in the area.

Got a sushi burrito for only $5 from this tiny window in Manhattan! This spot is open Mon-Fri 11am-4pm, and is perfect for an on-the-go meal during lunch hours. It's actually more of a kimbap burrito (= kimburrito?!) & they sell a whole assortment of rolls at Yummy Stick. Depending on the roll you get, prices range from $5 to $13 here. The original $5 burrito is stuffed with crab, fried egg, and rice with seaweed wrapped around, made fresh-to-order. The shop owners are so sweet and the burrito is quick, convenient, and filling. Can you believe this is only $5? Where else in Manhattan would you get lunch for $5? (besides Chinatown :P)

The staffs are friendly, this is a hidden gem. A regular roll is $5. The food was delicious! They are only open during the weekday for a couple hours. Would recommend coming here again! This is a hole in the wall shop, no places to sit. Staff: 5/5 Food: 5/5 Ambience: 3/5

Yummy Stick is the definition of hole in the wall. I never would have found it unless I had been searching Yelp for lunch in the area. I needed a quick bite and Yummy Stick was a perfect option. I ordered the shrimp tempura (no crab stick). A really good value for $10. It came with fried egg, cucumber, avocado, spicy mayo - wrapped in a seaweed with excellent rice, the burrito itself wasn't huge, but it was a perfect size for a lunch. I was almost too full to finish the last couple bites. You definitely don't need two unless you're very hungry. The burrito was delicious. It felt hearty, perfect amount of toppings, egg, avocado, and mayo. It came with a small soy sauce which was a challenge to use while standing (but I did it). Would definitely come by again. If I lived/worked/went to school here (there were a TON of students), I'd probably eat here all the time.

10/10 customer service they are so sweet and service is fast. The kimbap itself is tasty and a great quick meal in the area.

A small sushi burrito lunch joint in Chelsea run by a husband and wife duo. My sister and I used to come here all the time during our middle school/high school days, back when you could actually walk into the store and when they used to serve sushi, chicken teriyaki, and soba among others. Now, the business is run out the door (quite literally) and serves only "yummy sticks". We've been coming a lot in the past year and a half and always order in bulk: 3-4 (sometimes 5) of their original yummy sticks, which come stuffed with rice, imitation crab, house mayo, spicy sauce, and a fried egg. I prefer mine extra spicy with extra sauce, while my sister usually opts for less rice, soy sauce, and an extra egg. They're open for short hours, Monday-Friday (11am-4pm), so go go go! Run, don't walk.

A great solution for relatively cheap lunch bite or even if you're just looking for a quick bite on the way to something. Prices can be as low as seven dollars but can go up to around $15 depending on the type of roll you get. This place is doing something that has a bit interesting: it's giving sushi burritos another chance by fusing essentially a sushi roll with Kimbap and not cutting it into slices. This makes for a more burrito like eating experience, which makes it more accessible to grab and go, and it's bigger than your traditional sushi roll as well, which makes it more like kimbap, as it's also stuffed with veggies and egg. It's the perfect fusion I was looking for - a blend of more ingredients and larger size from kimbap while keeping the japanese fish options and making it relatively cheap. It's operating out of a hole in the wall and the lady who took my order was so sweet and helpful. I only waited around five minutes for my order though there was a line building,

A little gem in Chelsea MOM AND POP STORE Mom takes your payment Dad makes the sushi roll You get your food in literally a minute All cards accepted including Amex, minimum card payment is $8 Really support this place!! Delicious food; will come again for sure :)

I got the ninja that has a bit of everything. I really enjoyed the flavors and how big the portion was. Definitely not cheap but fills you up. The staff was so sweet and kind. The place is small and no seating so mostly to go orders.

SO YUMMY. I love how convenient it is to eat the "yummy stick" on the go, and the flavors are fantastic, all the ingredients well distributed throughout. The service is wonderful as well and the shop owners are extremely kind and made me feel valued as a customer. Will definitely come back if I ever need an easy meal on the go.

Unique, quick, easy, and delicious. The two elders are wise and sweet. I love that they are so friendly and happy. It makes me happy whenever I'm eating a Yummy Stick!

Ordered delivery from here tonight. Ordered the sashimi deluxe. It was $29.95 on Grubhub and they had a promo for $10 off. So I tried it. It was 18 pieces of assorted fish. Comes with either soup or salad and rice. I chose salad. In comments asked then to hold the rice. The food arrived late. I thought it wasn't coming. The salad is just lettuce, some shredded carrot, three slices cucumber, and a grape tomato. Dressing on side. Not a fan. I'd try soup next time. It was fresh though, but I tossed the tomato. The sashimi itself is very small. It was fresh which was nice. But if I had to pay $30 for this little amount of fish, I'd be upset haha. I'm happy they kept the rice! :) So while it was good, it is not worth the money. If they run a promo again, I may order from them again. But we will see.

Overall: 4.4 Wow, what an interesting type of meal. This spot is definitely made for the lunch hour folx that work in the area. And interesting variation of a hand roll. I liked it, but I didn't love it. It was neither here nor there for me. I think I would have preferred sushi for the same price. The staff was nice, very direct. Not sure what I was expecting but it wasn't this. I would probably try it again if I was craving it specifically.

Best lunch for 2 people under $15. It's was quick and delicious with excellent service. Tried it because my daughter saw it on YouTube. Great decision.

SUPER SIZED SUSHI ROLLS !! Service: amazing Food taste: amazing Price: around $10 per sushi-rito, depending on what you get. If you love sushi and have been looking for a place that sells sushi but in burrito form, for the love of god please come here. The owner/chef has such a gracious and humble welcome. You place your order and he works at full speed to get your order out. You can see everything he does and he does it all himself. The avocado that is in the roll is so ripe and the sauces he uses is on point. I wish I had ordered more to go. Such a small shop but it's got great taste. Will definitely go back

What beats sushi? SUSHI BURRITOS!! I can't believe there aren't more of these places around! I didn't know this was a thing until it was brought to my attention. Today I feel like I was truly blessed because I got the chance to indulge on this delicacy lol. First off this place kinda goes by 2 names. On Google you have to search "sushi burrito yummy stick" or "yummy stick". On yelp it goes by Maru 2. Secondly it's very small and easy to miss so keep your eye out for the yellow sign outside that says yummy stick. Now the FOOD!! The sushi burritos were freaking CRACK. SOOOOOO DAMMN GOOD!! I highly reccomend your try the ninja yummy stick. It has all the flavor and size you could ask for lol. I also got the original yummy stick because you gotta taste the roots you feel me? I want to try the ENTIRE menu. I ended up paying around $31.00 for the original yummy stick, ninja yummy stick, and shrimp tempura yummy stick (for the lady). The service was exceptional. Its ran by just one old asain man. He's the nicest and most chill dude you could meet. He's very polite, very quick with your order, and keeps a smile on his face. I was so impressed by his attitude and his demeanor that I was inclined to give him a nice tip. He was soo appreciative afterwards. I can't wait to come back. If you want your life changed, pull up and give this place a try. It SLAPS. Please tip the guy he's by himself, works hard, and deserves it.

Whenever i am in the area for lunch, I love stopping by here. There is nowhere to sit, it's only take out. They make "yummy sticks" which is basically an uncut sushi roll which actually makes it very convenient to eat on the go. I like the crab and the spam yummy sticks. They're not fancy but absolutely delicious and relatively healthy with the fillings. Even when there is a line, it moves quickly. The owners are super friendly and it's a great place to stop by for a quick lunch

Yummy Stick on google maps! My friend and I stopped by Yummy Stick for a quick lunch, as I'd seen it on Tiktok, and we were so glad we went! I got a spicy salmon yummy stick for $10 but my friend had the original for $5 which is a crazy steal. Where else can you get lunch in Manhattan for $5?? Yummy stick falls somewhere between a sushi burrito and Kimbap - either way, it is delicious. The yummy sticks are manageable to eat size-wise, and are packed with flavor. I loved the egg and greens in mine. They are served with a side of soy sauce. I wish there was some sort of outdoor seating, as it can get a little messy with the soy sauce, but the store owners are so kind; when I spilled soy sauce on my dress, we went back to get napkins and the owners were so accommodating. Overall, would highly recommend for a fast delicious cheap meal!

Great spot. Very small. Very cute. People there are incredibly nice and the food was very tasty

Super quick and convenient, friendly service from the owners! The spam yummy stick is my favorite :)

I love getting the original or spam with extra spicy mayo, I love the kick it gives. It's a small business but the owners are super sweet and kind that the interactions with them are memorable. This is my usual lunch spot and I highly recommend if you want something easily filling and yummy!

Great little place. The rolls are between sushi and kimbap. Very tasty. Ingredients are great. The size of the rolls is good. Maybe a bit small, but the price is right. I had the ninja and it was really nice. The tuna was great. The rice was great. The avocado was great. All good. They came out in like 3-4 minutes. Very fast.

food. service. ambiance. holy good gracious god. good food!!!!! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I got this to eat on the go....i should have sat and ate it because some of the rolls have sauce and it gets a bit messy at the end. I got the shrimp tempura yummy stick and it was delicious. Very filling, which is good because I had that for lunch. The lady who took our order was very nice and friendly. I would definitely go back.

Amazing shack, shall we say, in the middle of-- none other than-- the Flatiron District! Lil sweet old man whipping up delicious, affordable sushi burrito/ "yummy sticks." This literal hole in the wall is one of those places that makes me think, good God it's great to be a New Yorker. Don't even think about it, get the yummy stick (duh!). I got the classic. He's fast in preparation, food ready in 5-10 mins. This man knows what he's doing! Bring cash in hand and sit on the curb. Get the full experience.

Pretty good for a quick bite! Would definitely get again. The two workers who were there were nice and efficient.

Their yummy sticks are pretty good, but not that big and their prices are not consistent. Specifically, they raised their prices on a few of their items and I had to question the cashier as she charged me a few dollars more than what my order should have been. I don't think it's a great value, as one might have to get 3 items to get full-- which will run over $20. But that said, it did taste pretty good.

Fast and delicious! My teenage son got the spicy tuna yummy stick and he said this was his favorite food from our trip to NYC!

The price is right here The perfect hole in the wall, small, local business place to grab food on the go. It's perfect for a quick lunch during work days , especially if you're trying to eat healthy, fresh food without breaking the bank. It's Korean Japanese fusion, so I would say their yummy sticks / sushi burritos are a combination of kimbap and sushi - in the form of a burrito of course. I need to try the other items on their menu, such as the udon, next! Sometimes there is a small line but the service is really quick and always friendly. I'm so glad I found this place.

One of my favorite low cost places to eat. It's a counter i there's no sit down, but the service is pretty fast and the owners are very nice. I love the original because I like the spicy mayo, but the salmon is good too. I would gatekeep this but I love it too much

small family owned business that makes amazing japanese korean fusion sushi! their service was amazing and fast! definitely recommend the spicy tuna burrito.

very nice woman and very good food. Also very budget friendly!!! hope to see her again:)

Great little spot These sushi sticks were great only downside is they aren't open on the weekends and close early during the week

Solid eats for someone like me who grew up on the ubiquitous Kimbap rolls. Creatively they took it to the next step, it's really a burrito If you don't cut it. So all you individual rolls sushi fans this is what happens before the knife slices your pieces. The spam and the avocado rolls are good. Satisfying with just the right amount of rice (not too much). I wanted a bit more salt to my flavor but that's what the included soy sauce is for. The spam was a little mild in flavor and hardly noticable but I'm just grateful someone has my spam fetish also and delivers.

A literal hole in the wall shop that sells kimbap or "yummy sticks," as the menu calls them. (The yummy stick was indeed yummy.) Really great for when you're just craving some simple, tasty food. The man who runs the shop is sweet and makes the food very quickly.

Perfect quick bite! Takeout only spot that's mainly known for their sushi "stick". The stick is a hybrid between Japanese style sushi and Korean Kimbap. The Original Yummy stick is $5 which is so cheap for manhattan, and they have other sticks that go up to $15. The portion size is actually quite filling and the lady who took my order was so sweet!

These people know something about lunch. The salmon yummy stick is perfect: fresh, nourishing, soft, crunchy, involving pickled vegetables. One stick is a meal, but today I missed my lunch by two hours and I was hungry enough to add on an order of shrimp shumai. Thank god, because those little pillow bites are also a dream. This actual hole in the wall is just the kind of place that makes one love New York City. And the people who run it are always lovely. Thank you, Yummy Stick!

Cheap super yummy & very customizable. Definitely worth visiting, I get the spam yummy stick with cucumbers instead of spinach. Delicious!!

Cheap, delicious, and filling food. I got the original yummy roll, shumai, and chicken teriyaki. I couldn't finish everything all at once because the roll was already so filling! The original yummy roll was delicious and filling was flavorful, but the rice could have been seasoned more. Chicken teriyaki was cheap and delicious. I love coming back here for a quick lunch!

For the price, this place is amazing! A small hole-in-the-wall shop where you can order or grab-and-go. In the expensive area of Chelsea, this was the perfect place to get a good bite of food on a day out. The family running this place is so so so sweet, and I definitely want to come back the next time I am in the area. A+ people and the food is such a bargain! What else could you want?

Do it! Finally stopped by Yummy Stick. Got the Shrimp Tempura. Tasted like sushi burrito heaven. Super filling as well.

Loved the service, price, convenient, and taste! I will return! Yummy stick is yummy indeed!

Love this place. The sushi burrito was very cheap and good. The mom and pop shop is super cute and small. Would recommend for a quick bite.

Wowsa! Five stars for the shrimp tempura burrito. OUTRAGEOUSLY good. For $9, you get a creamy, thick log of crunchy shrimp tempura, mayo rice, cucumber, and fried egg. I've ordered other dishes from them (udon, sushi) and wasn't that into the food, but this Japanese burrito? 5 stars!!!!!

A co-worker suggested we try this place for lunch and I'm glad I listened. In the last year I've been here about 10 times to grab lunch. It's a teeny tiny pick up and go restaurant that just works. This place is famous for what it called a "yummy stick". It's basically a sushi burrito. It's all for the yummy insides of a sushi roll but wrapped up and served for on-the-go eating. There are many different yummy stick options but most of the time I go for the shrimp tempura yummy stick. They also have a chicken teriyaki bowl that's filling and delicious (I suggest adding avocado for I think $1 extra) and go easy on the spicy mayo because it can heat up the dish very quickly. I also suggest trying the shumai if you are looking for a light snack. Besides the food I will say I always enjoy coming here and talking with the owners. The owners are a lovely couple who are so friendly and eager to get everyone everything they need quickly. The wife handles the orders and money while the husband prepares the dishes. This place gives me real New York City quick, easy, and delicious food vibes. I'll obviously be back for that yummy stick.

Loved the sushi stick. Cheap, delicious food that is unbeatable in these days. It is the gem of chelsea. Highly recommended. We tried the original, ninja, tuna, spicy crab and salmon and they were all delicious and very filling. We recommend them all.

Huge fan of Yummy Stick! Super easy, inexpensive, and delicious. Not to be dramatic, but I would trust the owners with my life.
