We had a wonderful dining experience with our baby on a busy Saturday night (they were very accommodating). The special donburi bowl was decadent — my faves were the melt-in-your-mouth uni and scallop.

Generally the food was quote good ... the only disappointing item was the "Otoro Sashimi" ie the fat belly tuna sahshimi.... at $60 for 5 -6 pieces, it should melt in your mouth and should be FREE of any tendons ie "un-chewable" parts ...whihc was not the case ...and also it was not fully thawed ...so felt a bit too cold vs that feeling of "yummm....melts" in my mouth. That said, salmon ceviche and most other rolls were pretty good and so was the Hamachi sashimi. Service was excellent and prompt ...food presentation can be improved with better plate shapes to match the size of dishes and lacked the expected "Japanese finesse".

Came in for a couple drinks after a long day and we were so pleasantly surprised it was happy hour! Had some sake and a mango martini(phenomenal) and it was just overall a really nice and quiet atmosphere. Saw a couple food options on the happy hour menu and decided to give them a shot. We tried the fried Brussel sprouts and the delicious pork buns. The pork buns were really stand outs though, they were crispy on the outside of the pork fillet and tender and fatty on the inside 👌. Delicious.
The service was also really good, the manager was also really nice and went out of his way to strike up a nice convo with us
10/10 would definitely recommend

My family and I love Sushiko, and we go there fairly regularly both for lunch and dinner and have been doing so for the last 10-15 years. The food is outstanding. Staff is great, and the owner is always there, remembers my name for some incomprehensible reason and is always very friendly. They just added bento boxes for lunch. They are on a separate menu you should ask for. Our favorites are the sushi bento (which is different than the larger sushi and sashimi bento), chicken teriyaki and tempura. Each comes with a salad, miso glazed Brussels sprouts, a mini spring roll and gyoza and a maki (I think). If you love shrimp and not so much the vegetables, just get the ebi tempura and enhance with a roll. The omakase sashimi is very pretty and well-made, but the sushiko chirashi is just as good and less expensive. You can always enhance your experience with a piece or two of nigiri. I love their artic char. I will sometimes just get some nigiri, a miso and eat what my family doesn't. I am not svelt. I have not tried their uni, which may be the "test" for how "good" a restaurant is. If it tastes like you're eating overcooked chicken liver as opposed to foie gras, you're probably at a problematic restaurant. I usually don't risk it ever, but it is a treat if you find yourself at a very expensive restaurant. Or in Japan. If you want a Nobu or Masa, or even an American-level-Michelin-recognized restaurant, this is not the restaurant for you. If you want really good Japanese food to enjoy with your family and not worry about whether you are holding the fish knife in the proper hand, Sushiko is a great choice. If you want Nobu, go to Nobu. It's at M and 25th. But if you want Nobu, you're not reading OpenTable. So just go to Sushiko. And bring a loved one.

Honestly never been and wasn't sure what to expect, 12 out of 10. So delicious and so fresh, will definitely be coming back next time I'm in town!

We've been to Sushiko before but this was our first time booking their omakase menu. The experience was fantastic. Each dish was so good and the service was phenomenal. Too difficult to choose a favorite dish between all the super fresh fish, many served with caviar and one with truffles, oyster with uni, wagyu... It was all excellent.

I finally had the chance to experience Sushiko's omakase, and I only wish I had gone sooner because it was absolutely incredible. Our sushi chef was wonderful and incredibly accommodating; it was clear he genuinely wanted our food to be perfect and our experience to be positive. Although the omakase is priced at $140 per person and was supposed to be a fourteen-course meal, we received more than fourteen courses. That extra surprise made the price feel easy to justify.
A tip for those planning on coming for the omakase who want to save a little on drinks is to arrive slightly early and grab beverages in the bar area, as the omakase tasting takes place during their happy hour (which runs from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM). You do have to close your tab at the bar and move to the sushi counter, but we were able to bring our drinks over without any problem.

Excellent value for the size and quantity of the slices of fish with the Sushi/Shashimi/Nigiri. Service was attentive and made the meal pleasant.
