Located in Brooklyn, SORA offers a high-end omakase experience for $160 per person, leaving diners stuffed and spoiled with favorite nigiri pieces, apps, and a mango tres leches cake. The decor gives a clean and zen vibe, enhancing the dining experience. The special rice, made with 3 vinegars, complements the fresh and delicious sushi. Known as generous Jeff, the head chef/owner ensures a generous portion of food. Guests can enjoy an "all you can eat omakase and sake" experience for $120, which includes unlimited pieces of specific nigiris like scallop, sweet shrimp, tuna, and wagyu. Standouts include the chawamushi with pork and ikura, which is silky smooth. The monkfish liver braised with red wine is rich and indulgent, while the Hokkaido scallop, lightly seasoned with sea salt and lemon, is perfectly balanced. The Hokkaido uni with Burgundy black truffle is a decadent must-try. SORA focuses on the quality and flavor of the fish, avoiding gimmicky toppings. The dining space is elegant and quiet, with attentive service that is perfectly timed. Ending the meal with matcha panna cotta provides a delightful finish. The restaurant has received praise for its fresh fish, especially uni and wagyu soup, and the friendly, knowledgeable chef who walks diners through each course. Guests appreciate the perfect pacing of the 18-course meal and the variety of dishes, from nigiri to soups and signature fried fish. Celebrations like birthdays and Mother’s Day are especially suited for the luxurious experience here. SORA is a must-visit for great food, attentive service, and a fulfilling dining experience, ensuring guests won't leave hungry.
