Happy Tuna hosted a tasty preview to celebrated the upcoming opening of a new location near Grand Central, which would have a dining-in area.

Note: I was invited as media to the event. However, any views expressed are always 100% my own.


The location is bright and comfy with separate area to seat down and eat, an area to pick up drinks and even a digital wall. We enjoyed a couple plates filled with various sushi's rolls, nigiri and onigiri.

Plus cookies and pastries. Plus beers and themed drinks. All so fresh and delicious!
