Ceetay

Such a gem in the bronx, sushi- lovers you do not want to miss checking this spot!
They recently celebrated 10 years & here's to 10 more!
The Tuna Bruschetta is to die-for, I literally dream about it.
My other favorites are their veggie spring rolls, shrimp tempura roll, and bronx boogie down roll.
And don't forget to try their amazing sushi sandwich!

I ordered the buy 1 get 1 on Uber eats.
So I got the pad Thai...

I am Asian and love Thai food and the pad Thai was Mid at best.
Overcooked the noodles and overly sweet.
Does not taste authentic at all but maybe they're catering to the community in the Bronx since there's not many Asians. So if you like a commercial flavor this is for you.

I'm not a fan of their sushi. It tasted very commercial and not fresh and I got their cucumber rolls.

The service was nice, the cashier at the front was very hospitable and friendly.

The spot doesn't look like much when you walk by it but the food is absolutely phenomenal earning it a five star with no hesitation.

This restaurant is joined by a few other very delicious and epic spots but I've learned that this was the first restaurant on the strip when nothing else was around. They recently just celebrated their 10 year anniversary which is such an accomplishment and really says a lot about their food and how good it is.

I tried a few different types of sushi and was so taken back by how fresh and delicious it all was. They have some thing called tuna bruschetta on their menu, get it right away lol. It was seriously heaven. Another thing that I would highly recommend is their veggie spring rolls, I have been dreaming of them since I've gotten them and cannot wait to go back for more.

So many wonderful, healthy vegan selections.

I've had both soups (butternut and split pea) all the veg rolls, both salads, and the ceetay bowl. All wonderful, fresh, fast, well-priced and I'd order again. Great little spot for the neighborhood. Staff also pointed out how much husband could get more food for less money if he did the lunch special.

I have to say I didn't feel comfortable dining at this place. It's super small and it has a couple of tables right outside of its doors but than it also shared some tables outside on the curve with the other businesses on the block. The tables right outside of the reasurant were those annoying shaking chairs and tables that I don't like because they move while your trying to enjoy your meal. Also it's a really tight space so you can barely sit with anyone else you may be with. As for the outside curve tables, to much construction going on in the area its alot of noise and dust in the air, and don't think you will find any parking, it's a double parking mad house over there. I think Ceetay should think about relocating or expanding because I like to dine in when I'm having fresh made sushi. It's already expensive so I want to sit and relax and enjoy my meal I don't really like to order and go unless I'm close to home or bringing home left overs from already dining in. Now to the food.

This restaurant had the best rock shrimp tempura I ever had in my life. They could of added a bit more sauce to it because you can tell it was coated with sauce but not top with sauce if ya get my point. I loved it either way though. My wine was extremely to sweet not like the Plum wine I had from another Sushi establishment, that one was so far my favorite. I was served wine in a plastic cup, not what I was expecting from a sushi spot. I also ordered some grill scallops and a Kawasaki Roll. The scallops were beautifully presented, and taste so fresh and amazingly good, but it was hard to really enjoy such fine dining sitting out at a table on the street. That's how I felt. I didn't want to try my specialty roll, so I took that to go and really didn't enjoy it to much when I got home. It was just ok for me. The Rock shrimp tempura like I said was my favorite. I think next time I need to order a whole popcorn bowl of that with extra butter lol! I really mean (sauce). Honestly I would love to come here an purchase more items from off the menu, because the menu had some really tasty sounding options, but its just not worth it when I have other options closer to me that have if not better quality sushi.
If I'm in the area again (and I will be because they have other businesses that I will like to check out and some I may want to eat at because they actually have indoor dining.) I will definitely be taking home some of that Rock Shrimp Tempura, other than that I wouldnt travel all the way from the other side of the Bronx for this place. If your fine with the outdoor space that is provided I would say its a Thumbs-up, and you may not be disappointed in the food, even if your doing some take out, but as for me Im gonna have to pass.

The food is tasty, the presentation is on point, and they don't skimp on order delivery accoutrements (sauces, napkins, utensils, etc.), which is very important to me and speak volumes to their commitment to customer satisfaction.

Amazing food!! The restaurant itself is very small not a sit down restaurant but great for catching a quick bite.

Best sushi I have ever had! I was never big into sushi but my wife took me here to experience their new "Sushi sandwich" and it was just what my life was missing. Bold flavors with the taste of freshness in every bite. The menu is huge with something to offer for everyone. We enjoyed a huge spread and I have nothing negative to say about any of it. In fact, I don't think I can say enough positive things about this place. It's a staple of authentic Japanese food in the bronx and I would love to come back here and try everything else on the menu I haven't tried yet.

DO NOT RECOMMEND.
This place have been moved to outside seating due to the COVID pandemic, so all the orders are considered "to-go", since they aren't servicing you, and they aren't really going out there to clean the table after/in between each customer. The outside seating is shared with the BBQ place next door, which honestly seemed like it had better service than this place.

They forgot about our order, and said it was hard because their wifi was down so the orders wasn't put through until after they fixed the wifi. So the food took probably an hour from the original expected time of 15 minutes with no line. (wtf)

Food: 3/5 to start off, this place probably have one of the least authentic sushi places compare to other places. They serve almost the most basic rolls, and the rest are sort of an americanized verison of sushi menu. I guess in a white-washed community it might be considered good, but if you go to true sushi places, it'd probably be better. Moreover, the reason I say that is because of the menu choice orders on specialty rolls and of the menu is limited to a handful. Not to mention the main appetizer, entree, etc all don't have much to offer, and are of chinese, thai, and american versus actually Japanese.

And can I mention, who charges for extra soysauce and eel sauce? In my experience, they usually attach it for free during dine in or take out.


Cleaniness: 2/5 their outdoor seating is their only seating, not only do they not clean the tables and chair in between use, they also do not wipe down the counter all that often. I ended up waiting for the food for a while, and I could see various customers leaning on the counter, touching the menu, etc. No sight of cleaning done, nor was there an attempt.

Seating: 0/5 the seating isn't cleaned, the outside portion of their restaurant smelled like the sewer. It isn't exactly the most romantic/fun date to be on if you are there for take out outdoor dine in situation. Recommend for take home if you must.

Parking: street parking if you can, otherwise hopefully you walked/trained.
