Great food! - Edit
Great service, did a great job of accommodating a serious allergy, great food.
Read moreThe spicy tofu ramen was kind of weird though. With the slices of corn that you had to kind of pull out and chew the kernels off, and the baby bok choy that you had to saw, but didn't have a knife.

Over the Top - Edit
...as in exorbitantly expensive. Unless you're going for the lunch specials 11am-3pm, you're paying too much, especially since they only offer white, not brown rice for their sushi.
Read moreP.S. warning: be especially attentive when paying bill, either by cash or credit, that you're being charged appropriately, and/or getting back correct change!
Pros: Shoyu Ramen Bowl good but $$$, Price break 11am-3pm
Cons: After 3pm, prices go sky high!, Watch out for sticky fingers at cash register!

Good Vegan Sushi and more - Edit
We had Ramen, Dumplings and a Wrap.
Read moreThe Ramen Broth was rich in flavour and the toppings were also good. The portion size was perfect.
The Dumplings were Ok in taste. I had better ones but great sauce.
Same for the wrap, without sauce it tasted a little bit boring but still ok.
The size of the menu was good. Everybody should be able to find something.
I would come back but will try other spots first.
I was with my parents and did’nt tell them, that it is fully vegan.
It’s not obvious on the Menu that it’s a vegan restaurant so my parents did’nt realised it until I told them.
I liked that a lot!
Pros: Menu, Portion size

Ok but there are better options - Edit
It was just ok. The sushi was a bit dry, the cream cheese had an odd flavor, the dumplings were a little too sweet and too salty, and the saki menu could be improved. The wait staff was very friendly. I remember enjoying one of their other locations more

Sushi in Midtown - Edit
We had a lovely experience at Beyond Sushi Midtown! We went on a Saturday night around 7pm and the service was quick and the food delicious. We tried the Shiitake Truffle Dumplings, Sweet Tree Roll and Grilled Chicken Bao. Everything was delicious! I also had the Lychee and Honeydew drink which was really good especially with some of the spicier dishes. I do agree with the other reviews that mentions price... dishes are priced a little high but it is NYC and I found the variety of flavors, atmosphere and service to be worth it.

All Vegan Sushi - Fun to Try - Edit
Overall - a good experience. It was nice inside, a little cramped. Tried 4 things - the crab rangoon (amazing), salmon avocado maki roll (good), oolong lemon apple soda (amazing), and the tuna nigiri (amazing). All the flavors were really well balanced and nothing was overpowering in any one direction - salty, sweet, acidic, etc. A little overpriced, but what you would expect from NYC. Definitely worth a try once while you’re in the city!

not fancy, just expensive - Edit
checking their menu online i formed a wrong impression of this place - a 28$ ramen! a $9 miso soup! this must be a fancy-ish place, i thought. it's really not! which would be good - at the current margins i'd want there to be more simple vegan places than fancy ones, but this one is not priced for what it is - at least as far the items we tried are concerned.
Read morethe food we tried was not impressive at all, especially, again, for the prices. i'd only come back in a pinch and stick with rolls for take out.
