    Tried an assortment across the menu. The short ribbon dumplings and fish stew were magnificent. Everything else was delicious. Only little downside...we were seated in a small room with 3 or 4 other tables. Took away a bit from ambience of being out in an energetic place. But that is a small thing.

    Stunning ambience, energetic vibe, creative cocktails (cheers to you, Rowan!), and very friendly service (thank you, Connor!). Most importantly, the food was beyond fantastic! The 4 of us loved loved loved the beautiful sashimi platter assortment, sushi hand rolls, hamachi styled tuna garnished with green peppers, and steamed pork buns for appetizers. Our entrees were unanimous hits, with melt-in-your-mouth pork belly with a yummy coconut sauce, perfectly prepared grilled veggies in a nice lightly spicy sauce, and a couple of stand-out sushi rolls (rainbow roll and tuna & mango roll). Each plate was perfect for sharing so everyone could savor the wide variety in Sunda’s amazing menu! We topped off our dinner with a heavenly bowl of halo-halo. A perfect dining experience from beginning to end! A huge Thank You to the entire cooking staff of Sunda - Fulton Market for their incredible culinary skills. We will be back!

    Our night was so enjoyable, and it started with our server. He was personable, helpful and good humored. The cocktails are creative, I had the Japantown and loved it. Very original, very refreshing. We shared the garlic fried rice, brussels sprouts, fire chicken and steak kalbi. Every bit of it was delicious. Truly, could not have been happier with the experience.
