Delicious - Edit
This place takes sushi to another level. The flavours are unique, delicious and so much more interesting than regular sushi. My favourite vegan restaurant of my NYC trip.
The service was fast and the waiters were super friendly.
Too bad the restaurant isn't big enough to accomodate large groups of people.

Delicious & healthy - Edit
Everything in here is yum. My favourites are the Nutty Buddy rice paper roll and the red miso noodle soup. Small restaurant to sit down for table service or take away. Highly recommend.

Surprisingly unique - Edit
Whenever I travel to NYC I make it a point to eat at Beyond Sushi for at least two meals. It’s reasonably priced, tasty, and super innovative.
As a vegan, I am tired that every time a place offers “vegan sushi” I get avocado wrapped in rice and seaweed or something about as exciting. It’s tasteless and unoriginal. Beyond sushi, really goes beyond and brings us something innovative in the world of vegan sushi.
No two of their rolls are similar, and they all feature unconventional ingredients wrapped in tasty forbidden rice or black rice. Somehow, despite the seemingly-strange combinations of flavors, every roll and dish on their menu I have tried is amazing. Their sauces are tasty and flavorful as well, and pair beautifully with their respective dishes. Personal favorites: sweet bean wrap, mighty mushroom roll, and sweet tree roll.
I hope this place spreads to other cities soon. I have never seen a better fast food concept. Love it and cannot recommend enough!
Pros: Tasty food, Fast, Inexpensive

Definitely a must - Edit
Delicious vegan sushi. Plenty of options, great prices, super friendly employees. My main concern is that they do not have any warm sushi - like yam tempura or something with baked veggies. All sushi tasted good but like all the ingredients were just taken out from the fridge. I only tried few of their sushi and Spicy Mang was my favourite, 2nd place is Mighty Mushroom. I did not like Sunny Side, could not finish it because in my opinion they tasted like anchovies or some other fish. I think it was sundried tomato that I didn’t like. I highly recommend Nutty Buddy- that was my favourite item on the menu!
Will be coming back again.
Pros: Plenty of options , Nutty Buddy, Friendly staff
Cons: Small Place, No warm “sushi” like yam tempura or other

I thought Sugar Fish was the best sushi I would ever have. I was wrong. Beyond Suhi is.

Bad experience - Edit
It was a pity because the food was so good, we really enjoyed the sushi and the starters. Absolutely delicious. The problem was when we wanted to pay. We were tourists and we didn't know how does it work in USA with tips and payments. Instead for explaining it to us (we were obviously not locals, carrying photo cameras and speaking not native English) the waiter started to speak extremely loud about our stupidity with the cookers. I guess he wanted us to hear it, almost yelling.
Well, he succeed. We felt really uncomfortable and tried to fix our mistake, but the waiter kept treating us as idiots the rest of the time we were there.
I would rate only one star if I could.
Pros: Tasty food
Cons: Bad experience , Unacceptable behavior , Uncomfortable

my favorite vegan place in nyc - Edit
don't be fooled by the fact that it's a chain in manhattan. this place is INCREDIBLE!! you won't go wrong with any item & they even have seasonal items so once you've exhausted their huge menu you can still try something new. it's also cheap!! i can't stress enough how amazing this place is.
Pros: flavor combos are insane, friendly staff, perfect price
Cons: there's no queens location

Veg Sushi is the bomb! - Edit
Absolutely loved the sushi and dumplings I ordered from BS! I wasn’t a fan of sushi while being an omnivore but I am a fan of rice sushi as a vegan! Love the combinations! So fresh and delicious sauces.
Pros: Delicious, Fresh, Variety

Very interesting original take on sushi, a lot more taste to it than ordinary sushi. Definitively try it out if you want to see new places sushi can be brought!
Pros: All vegan!

Great sushi! - Edit
We ordered 3 different rolls and 2 different dumplings. La Fiesta, Sweet Tree, Chic Pea for the rolls and Fun Guy and Smokey Tom for the dumplings.
The rolls were amazing and they had really interesting flavor combinations and so did the dumplings! Would definitely stop here again.
The place itself is very small with limited seating.
Pros: Great tasting sushi, Interesting flavor combinations
Cons: Limited seating

Unique Flavors, Japanese Inspiration - Edit
Don’t go eat here if you’re looking for authentic tasting Japanese sushi. Definitely go here if you are looking for great tasting vegan fare.
It’s busy, it’s small .. what do you expect, it’s in Manhattan. Absolutely worth it though, especially since it’s so budget friendly. They have seating but expect to carry out during the lunch rush.
I bought two dishes. The Wild Shroom salad and the Chic Pea sushi roll. The Wild Shroom salad was more of an asian fusion dish. Very good and satisfying. The Chic Pea sushi roll had a more middle eastern flavor. Tasty but definitely not Japanese. I really liked it though.
I’m looking forward to returning. Great for a quick lunch.
Pros: Flavors, Price
Cons: Small

Amazing - Edit
Très très bon restaurant, juste à côté du MoMA donc parfait si vous souhaitez vous sustenter juste après une visite au musée (superbe endroit, d'ailleurs). Les sushis sont d'une grande qualité, avec de la recherche dans les différents goûts et pour un prix très raisonnable pour New-York. Seul bémol le nombre de places à l'intérieur, restreint, notamment si vous arrivez aux heures de pointe.

Absolutely delicious! - Edit
I've been here twice so far and I'm definitely going again. This place has by far the most delicious sushi I've ever had. Their other options are delicious as well but the sushi is really the star of the menu. And they have so many different ones to try out. Highly highly recommend!
Pros: Delicious! And affordable!, Lots to choose from, Have multiple locations
Cons: 56th St location is small

Plant based, great taste! - Edit
The sushi, the rolls, the soups, the salads, the dumplings, the wraps, the drinks, the desserts--they're all delicious. Beyond Sushi is beyond great. If I could take any one thing from New York back to my home town, it would be this restaurant.
Pros: Food, Prices, Service

best sushi ever - Edit
I'm a sushi fiend and really really missed getting good rolls in my small town in PA. I've been vegan for a year now, and plain cucumber and avocado can get boring during that time. But Beyond Sushi totally blew me out of the water for sushi!! It's better than anything I ever had. The waiting staff was great and super friendly as well. You know it's a good place when my skeptical, meat eating parents loved it too!
Pros: bang for your buck, dangerously delicious , super nice staff
Cons: minimal seating
