TKGOJanuary 15, 2011The dishes with mochi are phenomenal, as are all the mushrooms. The omlet appetizer is a must!
CFI WilliamNovember 17, 2010Watch out for the sake! Good selection. Staff is awesome with authentic Japanese vibe. Definitely worth experiencing!
Timothy ODecember 15, 2012Went for the first time a year and a half ago and it was great. Went again just now and it was one of the worst meals of my life.
Eat everything! Sit at the counter & you will be entertained. For privacy, opt for the back room.
Luca DLJanuary 15, 2012"Ura-Robata" is the back room of Robataya NY, it's perfect for a birthday party w friends
Heather ParkSeptember 23, 2009According to Urban Daddy: a brand-new Japanese robatayaki grill and pagoda of goodness, brought to you by the Sakagura folks, opening up Monday 9/28/09
Dan HaxelApril 25, 2013This place has a built in bidet in the guys bathroom. No opportunity to use it but did press the button and it didn't work.
Michelle Higa FoxJuly 11, 2010make sure you get a seat at the grill. liked: dried sardine sheets, enoki, crazy japanese toilet in the bathroom. weird: only asian place i've ever been to with a cheese plate.
Justin GaudenziJanuary 5, 2016Don't come here if you're hungry portions are child sized with an adult price tag
Mike O'DeaAugust 9, 2010the key here is to order the grilled vegetables when at the bar. stay away from the meat, not worth it! If they have some special shellfish, go for it.
Kathleen YanolatosAugust 6, 2016Alas this place used to be so much better. Skip it and go to one of the better nearby Japanese restaurants instead.
Dave OliverAugust 6, 2011Go to the bathroom. The toilet is electronic. Even if you don't have to pee. Force yourself.
Eric WagnerMarch 18, 2011Prices are high, portions are small. Gyoza has a weird aftertaste. Like chicken meatloaf.
