We are long-time New Yorkers who no longer live here but visit often and this is definitely one thing I miss. Excellent quality sushi that doesn’t break the bank. Everything we had was delicious but the crispy rice was a highlight. I got one of the lunch specials (ladies’ lunch - dumb name but whatever) and it was SO good. If I still lived here this would definitely be in my rotation!

I had the black cod over a roll. The cod was scrumptious. The roll very non-descript and truthfully, boring. I also had edamame, which was large enough to serve a family of three. It was very tasty. Service was good. I was there, however, at 5:30pm. A bit overpriced. Ambience was lovely.
Full disclosure: I just got back from Japan, so I’m undoubtedly spoiled.

Went with a large group of friends and nice to split various dishes. Really enjoyed the sushi and crispy rice. Some of the options wouldn’t get such pork shumi or cheesesteak sticks. Overall service was okay had some confusion with the dishes but they did come out quickly. Recommend for sushi as pretty atmosphere

What a delicious experience - The rolls that we got were amazing and flavorful, expertly prepared. The edamame was salted perfectly. Just before we left we tried a delicious sake' as well, provided to us by the bartender - it was amazing. We will definitely visit again.

Momoya is one of the best Japanese restaurants on the Upper West Side, the fish and food are always fresh. Highly recommend this place.

Really liked the sushi, expect for the red tuna that was a bit gummy. All in all enjoyed this restaurant.

We each had their three roll combo lunch special. Everything was really fresh and delicious. I'll definitely be back here!

The sushi was reasonable, but I've had fresher. It's never a good look for a sushi restaurant when there is the smell of fish wafting about.
I ordered salmon with avocado roll, and it did not look like salmon. Either the salmon was gray or it was tuna. But I was with people and I didn't want to argue.
Service was very pleasant and the atmosphere was good. Most of the sushi tasted good, but there seemed to be a very strong smell or taste to the octopus. That was a little concerning it should not have a smell.
The overall experience was okay, but I would be a little more concerned about the freshness. Although the other fish it did taste very good and did not smell.
If the price was more reasonable I would have given them a pass, but the prices for sushi in my opinion were higher than I've seen in this neighborhood. My usual sushi place is at least five or six dollars cheaper per person. So at these elevated prices, I would expect the best of everything and that's not what I got.
