50 Best Sushi Bars near Cliffside Park

“The food is fresh and delicious. The restaurant is very clean and the staff is super-friendly & attentive. Will definitely come back!“

“Small shop in a convenient location for locals. The sushi is fairly priced, especially if you choose one of the deals. It’s nothing extraordinary, but definitely better than the average hole-in-the-wall spot. Overall, it’s good enough that you won’t have any issues, just not particularly impressive.“

“Everything we had was amazing and tasted incredibly fresh! The sushi was delicious, and you could really tell the ingredients were high quality. I also had the yuzu drink, which was so refreshing and perfectly balanced—not too sweet at all. Our server, Sebastian, was very attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. Definitely a place I’d come back to!“

“I came here a friend and had 2 rolls (salmon and tuna), one sea urchin, and one wagyu single piece. All the food was incredible. Some of the best sushi I've had in my life. My friend had 2 vegetarian rolls, which both were delicious. I would highly recommend this place to anyone that enjoys higher quality sushi, especially at lunch since they have some discounted rolls.“

“Fantastic speakeasy sushi joint. Very small, no more than an handful of people may join the omasake style bar where 3 talented (and cool) chefs serve you the best crafted sushi you can get. Definitely going back soon.“

“Creative, fresh and delicious.“

“My daughter chose this for a birthday dinner. The food was absolutely amazing and the service was fantastic. Audrey was our server. She was extremely knowledgeable of the menu, made great recommendations, she was there when we needed her without being there too often. I would highly recommend Rosella Sushi. Can’t wait to get back to New York City and return for a meal here. It also makes it extra cool when Chef Jeff is wearing a Florida Gator hat!“

“Love the pad thai so much. Really authentic Thai kitchen. Thank you so much guys. I really enjoyed this!“

“Genki Omakase is a great spot and easily one of the most affordable quality omakase experiences in the city. The fish is fresh, the pieces are well prepared, and the overall experience feels like a great value compared to many other omakase spots. It’s a nice balance of quality, price, and atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out if you want a good omakase experience without spending a fortune.“

“Just awesome. Fast. Efficient. Great.“

“Sushi onakase Shinzo best“

“Second to none! The ingredients are fresh and chef skills are world class.“

“Haven’t eaten this well since I was last actually in Japan late 2019 before you know what! Loved the Korean flavoured belly pork.“

“Absolutely amazing food was delicious and the attention of the staff unique.“

“The food was wonderful and the ambiance lovely. The service pretty attentive and cheerful. But the desserts were overpriced and not worth it. Try the udon noodle with mushroooms. . yumm.“

“This is absolutely our new sushi spot in NYC. Went for my boyfriend's birthday because my usual spot was closed on the day. Beginning to end this was a phenomenal experience worth SO much more than they charge. The spot is subtle and well decorated and feels like a secret no one else is in on. There's a lovely seating area when you arrive where you can order a drink before being seated for your dining at the sushi bar.

We had 4 people to one chef, and three wonderful women attending to absolutely every other thing. Received an excellent sake recommendation, and immediately started in on the 17 course omakase. Each piece was beautifully crafted right in front of us with delicacy and precision that felt like it was out of a film. Truly truly delicious, fresh pieces flown in from Japan and seasoned in unexpected but beautiful ways. We loved every second of it. The chef was even attentive enough to notice that my boyfriend was left-handed, so he angled the nigiri at the proper angle for him to pick up. The attention to detail of everything in this place was amazing.

Because it was my boyfriend's birthday, and the end of the omakase menu they made him a beautiful little sashimi don with a teddy bear candle in it. So cute and thoughtful!

For a long time I've been a Gari devotee, but I've been entirely converted. In addition to excellent quality sushi, this was a whole experience that felt intimate and authentically Japanese. To get that kind of experience for such an unbelievably reasonable price is not something I thought I'd ever experience in NY. So glad we found this place and we will definitely be back! Cannot recommend enough!“

“A hidden gem! We stumbled upon this place on a walk and decided to grab a bite. We didn’t have a reservation but was quickly seated with a full bar of other diners for the lunch omakase. Great service, yummy food, and unbeatable pricing. This was such a treat! I will make sure to come back when we are in the area.“

“Good experience, especially with the happy hour special. The food is okay now, premium sushi set , the fish is average at best, cooked food is also average. Restaurant focus more on profit now I believe. Decor and service are still excellent“

“Excellent sushi!!!! Fresh fish. Amazing food.“

“My favorite omakase place in the city that I have been to the most often. Not crazy fancy, but the fish selection and quality just special enough that it’s not a commodity either. I also appreciate the approachable selection of sake. Perfect omakase bar for a quarterly visit :-)

Chef and hosts are all very nice and kind to share stories and experiences.“

“Warm staff and delicious classic Japanese sushi.

The fish was incredibly fresh and the rice perfectly seasoned.

Might be the best spot in the Hudson yard area, and the locals seem to know it based on the take out order rate. Everything was delicious and efficient. Can’t wait to come back.“

“Excellent experience the food was amazing. The service was out of this world. It was impeccable.“

“Fresh fish, comfortable, cozy, intimate atmosphere. Nice background music that can be on the indie alternative side at times. A cool show that involves a little bit of fire and a little bit of creativity, ending in a nice bite. Had a really great time.“

“Such a good experience! The chefs were incredible at their jobs but also engaging and lively. The server made the evening really beautiful with his presence. They gave everyone a free shot on the house and we also got a mini cake for our celebration. The food was out of this world! So yummy and you do not feel hungry after.

We’ll be back!“

“Overall very impressed with the food quality, especially the melt in your mouth tender meats. Appreciate how the meats are halal & no alcohol is served. Prashant is an absolute delight - knowledgeable, kind, and accommodating. He and the whole staff made dinner a wonderful experience.“

“Sushi was some of the best I’ve had. Chefs know what they’re doing with the glazes and sauces.

Service was attentive, but I wish they had more info about the dishes. Info such as ingredients in the sauces, where the fish came from etc.

The service was also very authentic to Japan in the sense that they were rigid about timing and when we were allowed to order certain things. If you missed your chance to order certain sections of the menu they wouldn’t take the order. lol it felt just like being in Japan.

HOWEVER they did accommodate an unusual dietary restriction and we very much appreciated that.

I think it’s fair because there’s no tip (it’s included in the price). Which is also true to Japan.“

“Excellent and comfortable affordable“

“Chef Andy was excellent!👍“

“We had an absolutely fantastic experience at Fushimi Restaurant! The food was delicious, from the appetizers we ordered to our main course. Each dish was expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. We also enjoyed a couple of drinks, which perfectly complemented our meal. What truly made our visit exceptional was the incredible service provided by our waitress, Ohmie. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the evening. Her warm demeanor and professionalism truly elevated our dining experience. We strongly recommend Fushimi Restaurant, especially because of the outstanding service we received from Ohmie. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Nice chef at 8 pm and 8/18/2026

Service was good. Eel fois gras was a standout dish!

For $88, the signature set was very reasonable. Except, the dessert was just mochi ice cream that tasted store bought. Which was a very weak ending to the night.“

“Great food very good service“

“Fabulous, in every way. Kinoko was amazing, deluxe sushi plate included more sashimi than advertised, including rarities like snapper and 3 different grades of tuna. Reasonably priced saki and the matcha tiramisu was decadent with perfect lady fingers. One of the best sushi meals of my life.“

“Second to none! The ingredients are fresh and chef skills are world class.“

“Great spot ...............“

“This is one of the best Omakase in town. As a lover of omakase, it is becoming one of my favorites. The 17-course meal is to perfection, one piece after the other. The location is fantastic, and the atmosphere makes it want to come back over and over again. The quality of the fish and other ingredients is the best, the pieces are refined to perfection. Highly recommended. If you are a sushi lover, do not miss this one.“

“I rented out this place for my birthday and it was the most fun experience. Not only is the sushi amazing and fresh, the service is amazing. They went above and beyond for my party and I’m so grateful. Tony and Steven are angels and will take care of anyone. It’s my favorite spot in the city!“

“14 course omakase for an hour“

“Imasanori Sushi is such a beautiful spot for an elevated sushi experience 🍣✨ Everything from the ambiance to the presentation felt so thoughtfully done. The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, and every bite felt like a little experience of its own.
Perfect for a special dinner, date night, or anyone who appreciates high-quality Japanese cuisine. Definitely a place I’d recommend adding to your list! 🤍“

“Best Omakase I’ve ever had 😊“

“Shota is as close to dining in Tokyo as you may find in New York. An absolute dream experience with every detail perfectly tailored to your needs. We recently attended the 3 year anniversary of this Michelin star restaurant and could not have enjoyed a meal more. While it is definitely a bank breaker for most, this is one of New York’s most delicious restaurants accompanied by some of the finest service you’ll find in the city. If budget allows, always go with the sake pairing. It’s a game changer. Love the team here so very much. They treat you like family every visit.“

“The food was amazing! Although you have to order a lot to get full, it is worth every penny. Special thanks to Owner for offering me something extra—I really appreciate it! My stomach feels full, but not overwhelmed. The quality is amazing! They made my night.“

“The omakase was soo good. Definitely recommend the golden ducky“

“Sushi was amazing. My daughter is allergic to soy and our waiter was very helpful! Service was very good.“

“I can’t even begin to explain how perfect everything was here. From the people to the food. It is everything you want in an omakase experience. And quite literally had one of best meals of our lives. We didn’t want it to end. We will be back, no doubt.“

“Best sushi I ever eat in NYC“

“Great experience. The food was exquisite, and the sashimi was very fresh. I also highly recommend the Chocolate Sensation dessert: it was creative, delicious and the perfect way to end the meal. Our server Jenna was friendly and attentive. Will be back!“

“I had a great time at Kaiyo. It has been a go to for me when I want sushi and am in Long Island City. The front of the restaurant is only the sushi counter, so it isn't noisy or distracting. It's a good place to sit and talk over a meal. The sushi is good and it is reasonably priced.“

“The most gentle, intuitive, good-vibe, caring service. Plus delicious, fresh, flown-overnight seafood. You will find all sorts of people there which makes it even more interesting as you can hear, watch, chat and more while having your meal. Thank you guys!“

“Best sushi I have ever had.“

“Pros: Good spot, good food, good sushi selection for being a small space. Cons: Place was very busy when we went (6/13/21) and service was slow. Took 20 minutes to get dessert. Some of our plates and soy dishes were not well cleaned from previous use. Ordered and was charged for two dishes to go, but only one was actually packed. Overall 3 stars due to the cons we experienced, but hoping that was just catching them at a bad time.“
