“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!“

“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“

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

“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.“

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

“We had the Standard Dinner at Uka Omakase and it was such a fantastic experience! The meal included a delicious miso soup, 12 pieces of nigiri, a hand roll, and dessert. Every bite was so thoughtfully crafted.

What really stood out to me were the unique flavor combinations and decadent toppings. The bluefin tuna with mushroom was incredible, and I especially loved the piece topped with miso yuzu. The chu toro with foie gras was rich and absolutely indulgent, while the piece topped with caviar added another delicious layer of flavor.

There were so many memorable pieces throughout the meal, and I loved that the nigiri went beyond traditional flavors with creative combinations that still allowed the quality of the fish to shine. Everything felt elevated, flavorful, and beautifully balanced.

Definitely a great omakase experience for anyone who loves sushi and enjoys trying creative, luxurious flavor combinations.“

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

“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!“

“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“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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! 🤍“

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

“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“

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

“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“

“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.“

“Best sushi I ever eat in NYC“

“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.“

“I had such a fun evening at Wegmans next door. Do not let the supermarket side entrance fool you, the vibe is sexy and welcoming. The staff was not only kind but attentive. My server was prompt and personable. Nick made my experience exceptional. The sushi was fresh. Do not skip the waygu taco! The lobster was perfectly cooked. The sweet potato was sweet and savory.
Sit at the chef counter for an authentic experience. You will not be disappointed!“

“We truly enjoyed our time at the sushi bar. My son absolutely loved the experience, especially collecting and disposing of the plates to earn points. The sushi was very fresh, provided it had not been on the belt for too long, and we would also recommend ordering the hot food. The robot was charming, and we enjoyed having it deliver our drinks. We also appreciated the restroom facilities, which featured heated seats and bidets. While we were unsure about the availability of prizes, our waiter kindly provided a charm for our son. We had a wonderful time and look forward to visiting again in the future.“

“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!“

“I had such a great experience at Domo Domo! The food was absolutely delicious, the atmosphere was great, and the whole experience was made even better by the amazing service. Joana was incredible, she was friendly, attentive, welcoming, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our visit. You can really tell when someone genuinely cares about their customers, and Joana definitely made us feel taken care of.

Everything from the food to the service exceeded my expectations, and I’ll definitely be coming back. If you visit Domo Domo, I highly recommend asking for Joana, you won’t be disappointed!“

“Best sushi I have ever had.“

“Great Service and the foods was delicious. Will come back here again.“

“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.“

“One of the best omakases I’ve had! The sushi was very fresh and buttery. The flavor profiles were excellent and not too overwhelming. The course focused more on the fish itself which I loved. I can’t even choose a favorite fish since they all were so good! Chef Wayne was wonderful at explaining each dish and was enjoyable to talk to. The whole experience was above and beyond.“

“Best omakase I’ve ever had in my life and we’ve had omakase all over across the country!

We only did the 12 course and regretted not doing the 17. We came for lunch at 12:30 on a Saturday and it was empty! Not many places open for lunch so I appreciated that they have lunch service. They also gave us some mochi for dessert to celebrate our honeymoon.

I’ll always recommend this spot and plan to visit every time I’m in New York.“

“Nam's Sushi is quite simply the best! Sherry is a great lady! I go there at least once or twice a week! The food is excellent. If you want some great sushi, please go to Nam's Sushi! The food is incredible and the people who work there are so friendly! I love Nam's so much!“

“Chef Andy was excellent!👍“

“An extraordinary omakase experience.“

“Mikado Sushi has become one of my go-to lunch sushi spots. The sushi is always fresh and consistently good, and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful.

I especially appreciated their service on one occasion when I accidentally placed my order at a different Mikado location. The staff went out of their way to communicate with the other location and helped remake my order for me. They handled the situation so smoothly and were very accommodating throughout.

Great food, great consistency, and genuinely excellent service. Highly recommend!“
