It's actually hilarious to read the low star reviews on Voodoo Tuna. One of them is actually a guy writing about HOW HE LOST HIS OWN SUNGLASSES AND BELIEVES THE STAFF STOLE THEM-nothing about the food-KEEP IT TOGETHER MAN! ANOTHER IS A ABOUT A DELIVERY ORDER that was late or didn't make it or something- SHE LEFT ONE STAR-nothing about the food. They are a new business haven't you ever had a bad night or made a mistake?
The sushi I had at Voodoo Tuna was great! I've eaten at Nobu, Tao, tons of fancy schmancy sushi places in NYC and Voodoo Tuna can definitely hold their own with some of the best of them! I can't even see where people didn't like it, maybe they haven't been to as many sushi places as I have to make a decent comparison. I've had shitty sushi before and this is definitely not in that category.
When I went about 2 weeks ago my food was amazing! I had the miso soup and did the "create your own roll" menu I believe it was only $7 to choose your own ingredients in a sushi roll. That's like creating your own Special Roll for ONLY $7. I had never been to a sushi place where they let you concoct your own sushi roll and I thought it was so fun!
I do agree that special sushi rolls or chefs rolls at restaurants are pricey-that's a no brainier!!! But there is so much to order and the prices range from cheap to expensive just like every menu at every sushi place I've ever been too.
I love how people get high and mighty when they write Yelp reviews and are so quick to write bad reviews when they aren't even considering what it does to a new business. How about experience a place more than once or order some varying menu items before you give a shit review to a restaurant. Give Voodoo Tuna a chance and take advantage of the "create your own feature" I don't think you'll be disappointed!
Also our server was amazing he had awesome slicked back hair but I forgot his name?!
