Kotobuki - Central Islip

Wow, placed an online order with a scheduled pick up time of 7:05. knowing it would be a busy time of the evening i waited a bit extra and walked in to retrieve my order at 7:25 at which time i was told it would be a few more minutes. 40 minutes later i finally received my order. completely unacceptable I do admit the food is very good but not sure if it's worth that wait.

Fantastic sashimi, very busy so therefore very fresh! I highly recommend lunch there!

Been a loyal customer for over 20/years, it's the best sushi in Suffolk period! Sushi for Two is a bargain!

Don't have anything bad to say about this place. It is a must try! Best sushi on Long Island!

I consider myself a long time loyalist to the Kotobuki game. I frequent the one in Babylon a ton, love the one in Roslyn, and now most recently this location. I do love love love the sushi and sashimi for one but since coming to this location... I have a meeting found love for beef and chicken negimaki and the carnival roll.. ordered the chicken negimaki for the first time the other night and I was actually surprised how good it was.. chicken was perfect not dry or overdone .. great splitting app I feel since it comes individually rolled up; really a nice bite.. The carnival roll was so good also tuna interior with salmon and pickled onions on top.. I forget what else is in it; def can see this being one of my new faves. More of Laura's top picks include their salmon or tuna crudo (in oil with lemon and onions, salt, amazing), Chilean sea bass, and of course, the carpaccio. I'm for sure a die hard salmon lover, so that is always my first choice but the tuna is just as amazing. For sure get their bonsai ! It's plum wine mixed with sake mmmm! They continue on just like the others with their no reservations policy... first come, first served basis, you can call ahead to gauge time but make moves after your call bc they def can get a lengthy wait list.
