“It was a great show. I can’t imagine this as a great food but every thing is better with unlimited saki and amazing companies.My wife and I had a great time. It wasn’t hard to find just under staircase and you felt transported out of New York.The food is amazing. They put up a great show and quality is reasonable. I enjoy the food but you can really drunk with the saki.Amazing restaurant and definitely a visit if you are in town. Experience depends on the host.“
“I thoroughly enjoyed my lunch at this restaurant. The ambiance was nice and comfortable and the food was very delicious. I had the fried dumpling, calamari, salmon salad and a pina colada which were all very delicious. I also had the chocolate fried ice cream because they were out of the vanilla flavor and that was tasty. I felt that the portion size of the salad and fried ice cream was a bit small but they were both delicious. The service/hospitality was great as well. Our waitress kept checking in with our table and answered all of our questions regarding the menu.“
“This place is amazing! Shea is the best, the heart and soul of Rosella. Shea guides your dining experience so you have the best meal. The avocado roll, sashimi, ceviche, all the big rolls are just amazing! You really can order anything and can expect perfection and perfect flavor combinations. Everything about Rosella is thoughtful and the people who work here are the cherry on top. 100% go!“
“I LOVE Ishi so much... This was my favorite omakase experience in NYC! Brought my parents here for their anniversary and their first ever Omakase.The ambiance is lovely. The interior is warm, inviting and intimate. Staff is very welcoming.The food is AMAZING and high quality. Every single piece was delicious and we were so impressed. I will definitely be back. There are so many great omakase places in NYC but this was the first that made me want to revisit even without a special occasion to celebrate.Thank you to the team at Ishi for such a wonderful experience!“
“The flavors in the grab hand roll set were dynamic and delicious. Jesse helped me out with some recommendations and even asked the chef for more sauce on my a-la carte order. I had the hand roll set and had to go back for a little more! Worth checking out.“
“chef leo is extremely skillful and did a fantastic job giving us the best experience, the ingredients were extremely fresh, and chef leo was also walkin us through each dish, so we were aware of each. The atmosphere is beautiful and comfortable, highly recommend if you’re in “
“Food here is cooked absolutely right! State of the art. From starters to main course all is superb! Price is perfect. Great combination for a perfect night out. Lobster is tasty and well prepared. Alaskan Cod is amazing. For business or date. Look forward to being back!“

“Visiting from London with a friend, came across this omakase place for a birthday dinner! It was also the chef’s birthday (and I pass my regards for how great the food was). Hugely impressed by the food especially for such an affordable omakase experience, and especially the service which was easy and friendly, and catered for my friend’s birthday so well. An unpretentious and cosy affair.“
“The ambiance is stylish and comfortable, and the dishes are exquisite?We chose the ?$100 pp Omakase for 2 and also ordered a few appetizers and nigiri a la carte.The appetizers include a steamed egg—soft and smooth, with the sauce flavor just right—you can order it with added Uni.Since every ingredient was so fresh and sweet, we couldn't resist ordering more scallop, uni, and wagyu nigiri to satisfy our cravings～The cocktails were fruity and very professionally made?. The dessert's cheesecake has sesame flavor?Check this place out‼️“
“This omakase spot does a well thought out 14 course that includes everything - from apps to nigiri to desserts at an affordable price. What I really enjoyed about Sushi Yolo compared to other omakase spots in this price range is how it’s nicely paced with your entire meal spanning 1.5 hours (other spots are usually churning out guests within 1 hour).As I said before, all the dishes were so well thought out and the pieces that were presented were so beautiful. My absolute favorite was their steamed egg topped with ikura and uni - it was so warm, smooth, and custard-y with the ikura and uni providing the perfect umami balance.As expected, service was amazing and Alex, the host, was so thoughtful to offer me tea throughout my meal as I was the only one in my party who was not partaking in sake.Highly recommend for a date night or a fun outing with a group of friends.“
“I think this place is great. Especially for a date night too. The Temaki they serve is great for a 2 bite situation, making it really easy to share between 2… if that’s your thing.To be honest, coming here and getting the classic & signature is just as $ as getting delivery sushi, maybe a bit more expensive but it’s worth it. High quality ingredients & thought out flavors.Personal favorite temaki is the XO scallop.The whole entire restaurant is gluten free by the way, so that might win a lot of people over.The interior & vibe is definitely for a certain demographic and will become aged out within maybe a year or two. The interior is on the same note of that Tend instagram dentist place, and that’s not a compliment. The music they play reminds me of what they would play at like a retail store.Dietary restrictions: The entire restaurant is gluten free & can help gluten intolerance with their meal.“
“One of the most upscale vegan restaurants I've ever had the pleasure of going to. Terrific Asian foods with veggie flair, and unqiue cocktails to boot. Try the Bang Bang Broccoli and thank me later... its tempura heaven!Vegetarian options: An all vegan menu in midtown Manhattan!Dietary restrictions: An all vegan menu in midtown Manhattan!“
“As a big fan of sushi, I absolutely loved this place. We visited on a Sunday afternoon while passing through the area and it was absolutely perfect. Short wait and quick service, perfect for a short stop to recharge the batteries.Hand rolls are big favorite of mine and this place did not disappoint. We were a party of three and all tried the 5 roll menu. All the rolls were great and I would highly recommend it.Thanks a lot team KazuNori for the warm welcome and delicious experience.“
“Top 2 sushi restaurant around flatiron. More authentic sushi experience with a unique menus and seasonal selection. Omakase by T O W A - I didn’t “W” in the case of my photos. I was back in town for business and was lucky enough to walk in during looting rain. Overall Would eat here again.“
“We had a great anniversary. We got the 12 piece + 2 hand roll omakase set for $53. The fish was super fresh and the whole meal was about 45min. There’s about 12-15 seats at the counter, so if you want to guarantee seating book a reservation. It was absolutely worth every “
“Come here for the experience.Talented sushi chef - the fish came out distinctly silkier than other places, the torching was perfect (not too much or little) and the proportions were excellent. The team were all very nice and worked well together and it was a... fun! experience. The music was a loud, opinionated mix of pop and country.One complaint - some of the fish wasn't as flavorful or fresh as I'd like. We were the first seating, but the uni tray was half empty and it looked tired. Other fishes weren't as good as other places. I'm assuming this is an issue with them being new and not having the volume yet.“
“We arrived to Kimura 10min before opening on a weekend and there were 3 parties in front of us in line. They opened on time and there were no issues getting seated, with no reservation, but we were seated in the backyard heated room. Our waiter and the staff there were polite and friendly. Everything we ordered was flavorful and delicious. Only complaint was I wish portion size was bigger. Haha. Beef tongue slices (5pcs) $14 - marinated grilled tender slices Yuzu Miso Salmon $15 - Includes fresh salmon sashimi topped with yuzu miso and sesame ponzu sauce, green onion and onion slices Hakata Motsu Nabe $27/person - Includes beef intestines, cabbage, leek, tofu, burdock, and sesame, chili sauce on the side. I would like to come back to try the of other nabe options.“
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Sushi by M exceeded all expectations! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was inviting and energetic. The food was nothing short of exceptional, each bite bursting with flavor and freshness. The chefs were not only talented but also incredibly friendly, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the dining experience. I wholeheartedly recommend Sushi by M to anyone looking for top-notch sushi and a fantastic dining atmosphere.“
“Delicious food and amazing service. I took my niece here for the 15-course menu (she loves sushi and cooking) and it was an incredible experience and memory for us. Watching the chefs prepare the food with such care right in front of you and not a single piece missed. There was no piece that at the end you could do without. Will be coming back with my husband and friends.“
“First of all, this is my second time appreciating the sushi sets! I specially love eating omakase, I had been tried a variety of place. But, at last I decided the best of this store, I could really taste the freshener of a variety of fish because I really can sense the brilliant through my tongue! Price are affordable in comparison of others. Environment brings good vibes. I definitely will back and back!“
“An absolutely amazing experience. Every piece of sushi was meticulously prepared and so so delicious. Your mouth will go on a journey that will leave your taste buds unable to appreciate any other piece of sushi. This place is amazing and we'll definitely be back.“
“Great place to stop by for a simple omakase lunch. Theres a small seating counter in the back for about 10-12 people. We had 10 pieces of fish with 2 rolls. The fish of the day was mackeral and fluke. Some of my favorites were the torched sable fish and scallop. Service was great and the staff were friendly.“
“I’ve been to the $300+ omakase and this dinner is a different experience. Don’t expect the long winded explanations and the slow, methodical preparation.13Water is fast and delicious. Our entire meal tasted fresh and each piece was very good.The servers were attentive and quick to fill our water glasses. Overall, a wonderful experience and reasonably priced.“
“Love this place! The sushi is so fresh and tasty. And reasonably priced. Free green tea pudding with Yelp check in! The pudding is topped with a spoonful of sweetened red beans. A delicious dessert! My favorite is salmon and here, it's melt in your mouth fresh and yummy. My favorite dish here is the Salmon Lover. It's salmon four ways plus a side of kani salad with some roe on top. Thick generous portions of sashimi, also has sushi, salmon avocado roll, and a grilled salmon collar (when available, otherwise you get 2 pieces of salmon belly). This place is so good, in one week, I went 3 times and still not tired of it. Not crazy about the chicken kaarage. The pieces are too small so when fried, it becomes dry and loses its juicy tenderness. Tried some skewers. A tad on the dry side. I'd stick with the sushi. Though the skewers were very popular with the kids at the table. Service. Attentive. Tea constantly being refilled. Decor. It's a small place. Lots of wood decor. The space is narrow with seating to the left and right. In front, a few private mini booth rooms covered with a curtain, line the side of the restaurant. These can seat up to 4 people. There is also a small party room downstairs. In the back, you can sit in front of the sushi chefs if you like, at a high counter.“
“My friends treated me and my wife to dinner here as an engagement present. We all had a wonderful time and thought the food was top notch. On top of the fresh fish and impeccable presentations, I really appreciated that Don was so accommodating to dietary restrictions. Many restaurants serving omakase are unwilling to make changes. I would absolutely come back again and recommend this to anyone.“
“Omakase is pretty good for the price. Most of their fish are fresh and flavors are good. Their cod, uni, and scallop were great. Their amberjack appetizer was not as fresh. I suspect most restaurants try to mask their less fresh items with sauce and other flavors and put it up as an appetizer. Atmosphere was crowded and noisy. Service was fast, taking away our plates before we were even done chewing. Didn't mind it too much but it did feel a little rushed.“
“TL;DR: It was FIRE!!!This was by far the most amazing experience I have ever had. From the friendliest Chefs to the amazing flavorful melt in your mouth courses . Chef Ben and Chef Kong were very polite and educated us on what we were eating and had some lovely jokes. It was great to see everything prepared right in front of you and fresh. The pace of when the courses came out was perfect and not rushed at all. The place is small but understandable why they do the reservations the way they do it. I highly recommend going here!“
“Ordered a salmon donburi lunch set (7 pieces) for about $20, found it to be about average if not slightly above average. There was a nice portion of salmon roe/ikura included with the donburi, as well as a small side salad. I think for the price, it'll be hard to beat this quality. Nothing amazing by any means, but certainly decent and far from bad - a great value and reasonable price for sushi, I will be back to try the nigiri and sashimi!“
“Pros: Good food! After a few visits we tried all of the small plates and rolls on the menu and everything was delicious. Fun cocktails. Cozy and comfortable. (Try to get seated on the perimeter of the space, the tables in the center of the room can feel a little claustrophobic.) Fairly priced. Cons: Uneven service. On two separate visits, the server forgot my drink. The server on our last visit was downright surly; she really seemed like she did not want to be there at all and spent most of the evening ignoring us. And, also during our last visit, we almost turned around and left because it looked like the place was closed. It was dusk, all the lights and signage were turned off, tables and chairs were stacked out front and a large pile of cardboard recycling was waiting to be picked up. I only saw that there were lights and people in the back of the space when I was out front.“
“We celebrated my friend’s birthday here, the staff is definitely 10/10, very cool Chef who has been making sushi for 20+ years, IMAX who is the coolest bartender and made such a beautiful unicorn drink for us, and birthday Mochi on the house.Also shout out to the beautiful hostess Beatrice and Ray who made the whole dining experience super special. ❤️❤️❤️Would definitely come back and celebrate special memories with my friends here.“
“Has such a yummy and pleasant omakase experience in Astoria on a week night, thanks to That Place. The restaurant is so beautifully decorated and clean. The host/server was so attentive and sweet during the entire 1.5hr experience - my water/tea was refilled almost automatically after every sip. Same is also included in the omakase pricing which is really nice for drinkers ! The chefs worked together and created really delicious pieces- every one was super yummy. Their matcha ice cream and cheesecake were also so good ! Overall, was such a great experience and will definitely be back again for a weeknight or weekend dinner.“
“We walked in with no reservations on a Saturday night (we had just arrived in the city) and only had a 45 minute wait. The food is delicious, I had pork tonkatsu ramen, and my husband had a seafood okonomiyaki. We shared a soy and ginger beef appetizer and got their seasonal Miu Miu cocktail. The service was quick once we were seated and the staff was friendly. The only drawback is that the space is loud, and it is uncomfortable to try and have a conversation over your meal. That may not be a problem on a weekday though.“
“This sushi restaurant left a deep impression on me. Their sushi is delicious and soft and glutinous, which gives me an endless aftertaste. At the same time, their production process is excellent, and each sushi is carefully made and matched, will come back for sure.“
“My family and I went to the Lobster club for dinner and in short it was amazing. The food was so unique but soo delicious, there wagyu dishes especially. Of course we had to get a lobster dish which we ended up getting two orders of, the restaurant itself is so beautiful. As soon as you walk in you see a beautiful scenery. The service was good cant complain about anything they were able to accommodate for my moms birthday and bring out a cake which was very nice and there dessert selection is very unique as well! Overall I would definitely come back, this restaurant is definitely on the pricer side but it definitely worth it once you take that first bite!“
“Our meal at IWAK was good enough to call it a Williamsburg gem after one try. Great rolls, pork buns, and sake. The service and atmosphere felt more reminiscent of Japan than a number of other sushi spots.Excited to have a new sushi favorite nearby!“
“Nestled discreetly in the East Village, The Office of Mr. Moto beckons with its cozy atmosphere and impeccable hospitality. The setting exudes exclusivity, providing an ideal canvas for a memorable dining experience.While the service remains outstanding, it's important to remember that taste is subjective; while some sushi selections stand out, others are merely satisfactory, in my opinion, especially considering the premium pricing. Nevertheless, credit must be given to the charming chef, whose skill and dedication are evident in every dish.Despite this, The Office of Mr. Moto continues to attract patrons seeking an intimate ambiance and flawless service.“

“Teddy and the Shogun team are incredible! I booked a VERY important client with them and they took such great care of my clients, they were raving about the experience they had. I will be recommending them again and thank you for doing such a great job, Teddy!“
“I have been here for both dinner and lunch. I prefer the dinner menu over their lunch menu because of the bigger portions and wider variety, but the dinner menu is available at lunch as well. For dinner, my partner got the braised short rib which he was very pleased with. I got the set of four hand rolls which all tasted fresh and delicious. The hand rolls are more like open sushi tacos. There was a lot of filling so I ended up being fuller than I expected. For lunch, we had the lunch bento set which included a small portion of an entrée, a miso soup or salad, and a hand roll of your choice for about $25 depending on your entree. The teriyaki is on the milder side. Overall, I am happy to have this little gem in Brooklyn. Besides the good food, service has always been exceptional too.“
“I was visiting from Florida to see family and we decided to come here for my birthday. I haven’t been back since Chef David left and I was a bit nervous of coming back but I went for it anyways, all I can say is WOW! From Bob Moses playing in the background to the exceptional hospitality and delicious Omakase. I can say I’ll be back every time I visit thank you Sushi Dojo you truly are a gem!“
“We had a phenomenal omakase dinner. Pretty much all the dishes were fantastic, from start to finish. A special shout-out to the salmon nigiri with foie gras and the kobe beef nigiri, truly delicious. The sake chosen for the pairing was also very enjoyable, I would recommend that. Overall, a great experience, 5 stars with no hesitation whatsoever.“
“'Twas a pleasant experience. Itamae DC made my experience a good one as this omakase dinner was one to remember with the unique and innovative courses that I have never had before.This was the first time I had potato chips on any of my omakase courses. Fish was fresh and exceptionally prepared. Atmosphere was different from other restaurants like this, but that is okay. Getting out of my comfort zone - that's our purpose of living, right?Itamae DC was down to earth and made conversation, which made me feel very welcomed during my dinner here. Prices are reasonable for experiences like this in the city.“
“I discovered Shinn East when they first opened either right before or during Covid. Till this date, this spot is my go to omakase given their high value for money offering. It is extremely well priced for the amount of pieces that you get and the quality and freshness of their fish is excellent. Service is also excellent. Both indoor and outdoor seating are really good. Highly recommend.“
“Absolutely my favorite place for sushi. When you order the omakase you aren't just served different cuts of fish you may be familiar with like bluefin tuna but rather get a series of carefully crafted pieces combining flavors you'd never expect. Whenever friends visit New York, I always suggest Sushi “
“I'm a picky eater and was very nervous about eating at U Omakase. I was truly satisfied with everything. I believe that every course was better than the one before it. The staff was great! They gave every detail about each dish and answered all of our questions. I highly recommend it. For those nervous, "picky eaters" out there, just go and take in all the flavors and enjoy. Thank you to U Omakase for such a fun night.“
“Sushi Goda stole my heart right as soon as I walked in. The futuristic entrance, cozy ambience, and nice jazzy music in the background make everything perfect. The food is hands-down delicious. We ordered fried rice, salmon skin salad, sushi tempura, and bruschetta. Everything tastes out of the world. The servers were super and they definitely did a great job in paying attention to details. I would recommend Sushi Goda to everyone who loves sushi and omakase.“
“Good vibe. Good sushi. Ordered crispy rice and edamame to start. Latter was just ok. Crispy rice wasn't what we expected but still good--a rice type cracker with heap of topping. For mains we got chirashi and sashimi deluxe The salmon was excellent as was one of the white fish. Other fish was ok but not mind blowing. Had the mushroom soup instead of miso and it had a stronger taste than I expected and killer hot. Beware of that. Unfiltered sake choice was good and sweet little sake glasses. We'll come back for sure with a revised order.“
“I’m a bou fan so when I was in town I had to check out the west loop location. All the spots have such a unique feel- this was very upscale compared to the disco and hip hop themed in NYC but equally as amazing. Have never left a bou unhappy!!“
“I recently experienced the Taikun Omakase splendor in Miami. I Felt in love with it, but what impressed me the most is somehow they new I really enjoyed a Blueberry muffin and a glass of milk after dinner. So at the end of the experience they brought me 2 blueberry muffins and a glass of milk. First time "someone" did this out of the blue....Я.А“
“The restaurant is cozy, so expect to be close to others while eating. Their sushi, both raw and cooked, is really good, and if you see lobster tail on the menu, it's a must-have. I've ordered from here many times and the quality is always top-notch, making it a favorite spot of mine in the city. Prices are reasonable for the quality you get. The chirashi lunch was a great choice, with fresh fish and good rice.“
“Ordered delivery via Seamless, the food arrived hot and the amount was overflowing in the boxes. Definitely surprised us. Ask for extra teriyaki sauce because it makes it taste so good. The shumai was delicious. I think it would be better to either eat there and order for pick up because my only issue was the fees on the app. Definitely recommend this place and would be ordering more in the future and also telling friends and family to check them out“
