Make it a special occasion and get the omakase. Each piece was made a la carte and explained by the waiter. This is more helpful than the other restaurants where the waiter hastily explains 20 pieces of fish on your tray and you forget what’s what. At Sushi Katsuei, each piece was crafted and explained to us. One by one ☝? So it was more of an experience. Definitely tried things we’d never order plus we tried things that are seldom on the menu. This is not your typical sushi ? restaurant. The chefs wear white hats and it’s very minimal. High quality. You must try this and go for the omakase ⭐️

Excellent sushi. This is where I bring non sushi people to appreciate and love sushi for their first time. No soy sauce dipping here. You will eat it the way it is prepared by the chefs and since the fish is so exquisite, you don’t need to add soy sauce or anything else. The service is respectful and attentive. The ambiance is a bit cold and really not something to even care about since the fish becomes the main attraction. 5pm on a Thursday evening felt like it was babysitting hour at the sushi joint. Park slope parents living in their bubble allowing their kids to be loud and obnoxious while others are dining around them. I can’t blame the restaurant but parents need to take responsibility. No homework, coloring books, or crayons should be on a sushi restaurants table. Besides that… everything was excellent!! And thank you for not participating in the 4% credit card fee scam. Many customers appreciate that!!

Fresh sushi, with their own style of flavoring their classic omakase special. Healthy amount of wasabi was used in prep for some rolls. Try to get a reservation, as we showed up on dinner opening at 4 pm and they asked for a reservation to an empty restaurant; when we were done eating the restaurant was barely a third full, felt kind of odd. None the less, decent omakase for a great price point, definitely left satiated.

Seriously good sushi, which is not easy to find. This one's a winner.HOWEVER (and I've been eating here for 7 years and they know me): on my latest visit I found a hair in my food. They apologized. They replaced the dish. AND THAT'S IT. Folks, you have to make SOME kind of gesture, no matter how small. Inexcusable.

Noisy, mediocre sushi joint fronting as an authentic Japanese restaurant. That, it is not. Don’t bother.

My friends and I enjoyed the open style omakase and were all very impressed. Wide variety of sushi pieces and all very high quality. One of the best prices for omakase in the NYC area.
Food was good but the Their portions are so small !!! For the price you paying forBe careful because their prices are so different From their menu or websites !! Never again!!! Their are much better places to go to for sushi !!!! Like Jpan on 2nd st & 5th Ave!!! What a shame? after $80 of food !!! I swear I had to cook because I was still hungry?

I've eaten here a total of 4 times. All times, it was incredibly delicious. The most recent time was in August 2023 and I got HORRIFICALLY SICK from the omakase. It was extremely disappointing to spend hundreds of dollars to be SICK FOR WEEKS. I spent 6 days with horrible food poisoning symptoms - I was unable to keep food and liquids down, unable to look at my phone to cancel plans, or keep my eyes open for more than 10 minutes at a time. On day 3 my husband insisted I call my doctor who sent in anti-nausea medication so I can begin keeping fluids down, probably the only reason why I was OK by day 6.I lost a scary amount of weight. Since I was too sick to go to the doctor, the restaurant refused responsibility and asked 'if theres any seafood I cannot handle' which I found insulting. My doctors speculate that I had a Shigella infection from my meal.In the end, it took me 3 WEEKS and a round of ANTIBIOTICS to clear what was in my system.Eat here at your own risk.
