A restaurant that specializes in sushi rolls has opened in a new high-rise office building in Long Island City.

The company has moved into a space inside the building’s expansive food hall, called JACX&CO, which is located on the ground floor of the building on the corner of Jackson Avenue and Queens Plaza South.

The Long Island City location is the company’s first in Queens and third in the U.S.

Temakase makes its sushi rolls from fresh fish, seaweed and cooked rice. Some of its fish selections include blue crab, tuna, lobster, salmon and yellowtail.
