How fun! Actually seriously good nigiri with the most helpful and pleasant staff. This is a fun omakase that doesn't take itself too seriously and delivers a high quality product. We will be back.

Enjoyed the whole experience! I think the price was fairly reasonable for what we got. My favorites were the personal picks from the chef!! The staff was really fun and made the whole experience amazing.

Wow. It's simply impossible that fine dining could be this fantastic. Tashon, Jens, and Jackie rolled out the red carpet so amazingly, you would have thought our last name was Bou. Sebastian behind the counter was simply breathtaking. We've had omakase at some of the world's leading places in Miami, in Seattle, in NYC, and Tokyo, led by folks who were trained by one of the global icons, and I have to say that Sebastian's ability to create absolutely new and inventive tastes and flavors - while adhering to simple and gorgeous presentations - was simply unmatched. While Sebastian was working his magic, the rest of the team was working hard to make sure every other part of the experience was simply flawless. Water? Always full. Cocktails? We were always asked about how we enjoyed each one well before each was empty, by the expert mixologist who was able to explain the difference between how American mint and Japanese mint can enhance the flavor of certain beverages. Plates? Cleared instantly. Feedback welcomed by the chef? Absolutely. The energy level is not “watch me make your next item while the brightly lit room cowers in awkward silence” - like so many high end omakase spots. This experience is more like “Do you want to be sad when your dinner ends because you don't know when you're ever going to feel this happy with a meal?” There's so much more I could say, including how the effective background evening vibes by Utah's legendary DJ Ta-Salmon made us want to sing each employee's praises. As MJB once said, it truly feels like this team is a family, and it was a Family Affair. Concluding, let me say what MJB would - when you go to Sushi by Bou at Fulton Market - Leave your stress (and hunger) at the door, so when you step inside, you'll see what's in store. Sigh... I know every review is supposed to have one “constructive critique”, but we can't find a single flaw in our entire experience. Thank you, Sushi by Bao team!

I come to eat here with my friends often then not and the funny story is I didn't even know it was the same place at first when I walked into the restaurant just wanting good reasonable priced sushi. I always get their sushi platter Chirashi for lunch or if I really crave sashimi I'd go for Sushi Sashimi Combo, along with one or two sides for an appetizers. They got a really good selections for starters. Takoyaki and Tuna Tartar is my fav!

Great experience overall, the chef was very knowledgeable and friendly while making each piece. All were delicious host/server was very fast paced; she made us feel very rushed during the experience which wasn't ideal but it is what it is.

I had a really a good time with my friends. The food and drinks were great. I'll definitely go back again.

Camila

It was good but nothing exceptional. I am not mad I went, but I wouldn't go back. Their menu is pretty basic and most of the dishes needed a little something to make them really good, I feel like they were pretty basic and were lacking flavor

Food is delicious and you can customize your order online! The Japanese soda bottles can be hard to open but otherwise great experience and place overall for Sushi
