50 Best Sushi Bars in Brooklyn

“An amazing experience with great food and textures. If you’re a lover of food, good ambience and being educated on cuisines. This is the spot. Our chef Sato was amazing and explained everything really well. The sake was also 10/10- served in a beautiful contraption“

“Solid sushi place with fresh fish and good service. Menu is not as extensive as at other sushi restaurants but enough of the standard option to appease the palate. Prices are reasonable for the area and the portion of food served. I went on a Friday evening around 7pm and the place was not crowded nor was there a wait for a table.“

“Great food very good service“

“Went for lunch and I found the food, service, and atmosphere all to be good but not amazing or mind-blowing, and wasn't convinced about the Michelin star.

The fish was good quality, and so was the rice, although I felt it was a bit under seasoned. The chef did use salt as a topping/between the fish and the rice, and while it worked in some pieces, it couldn't always make up for the under seasoned rice. The appetizers and the tamago were also underwhelming. Okay but nothing spectacular.

I also found the service to be a little cold and stuffy at times. That works fine at a fast paced Omakase counter but not so much otherwise.

There's definitely better spots in the city that deliver a more memorable experience while still honoring tradition. Still, worth checking out at least once!“

“깔끔하고 깊은 맛이 좋았습니다.“

“Best Omakase I’ve ever had 😊“

“Our waiter walked us through and explained everything to us as we are sushi novice. This was a well recommended place for sushi and sashimi and I highly recommend it!“

“Attended an Omakase event, Staff Amazing, Food absolutely delicious 😋, The experience going and enjoying time with your friends, priceless. They made us feel like we were part of the Koma Sushi 🍣 family. THANK YOU“

“I just picked up an order of Tomkatsu ramen. Even though I was just picking up both the bartender and waitress were super professional and prompt. The food was really good btw. I’ll be eating here in person from now on. It’s ramen season!“

“Had an exceptional meal at Luya. The service, food and vibe were awesome and made two adults and a month old baby feel extremely welcome. Would recommend to anybody looking for date night or simply seeking really great quality sushi and omakase in the neighborhood. Their cocktails and drink menu are stellar and worthy of their own positive comment.“

“Food was delicious. Would go back again“

“A lot of good things about this place such as decor and our chef. Loved how he actually cares about each piece he makes and has such a pleasant mannerism (tho the overall vibe of the service was awkward and slightly cold in the beginning). We liked a lot of the pieces: quite fresh and diverse altho some of them taste Americanized and heavier (the truffle and the heavier sauce applied, for example). The service improved along the way tho. And the restroom can def be a bit more aligned with the decor outside.“

“One of my favorite restaurants in all of NYC. The food is exceptional - very generous portions for a great price. Never seen more fish in a sushi roll before. So fresh. The restaurant itself is beautiful and all of the staff were very friendly. I cant wait to come back. Can't recommend enough.“

“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.“

“I went to a restaurant in the upper west side once to have an Omakase dinner once and the food for that price was very underwhelming. But the sushi here was so good especially the spicy one and the shrimp sushi. You will be full in under $20.“

“I ordered online, and everything arrived fresh and beautifully prepared. The sushi was absolutely delicious and incredibly fresh. You could really taste the freshness of the fish, they were tender, buttery, and full of flavor. I love it!!!!!!!!!!

The beef with Chinese broccoli was also excellent. The beef was tender and flavorful, the Chinese broccoli was crisp and fresh, and the sauce was rich and savory without being too heavy. My daughter especially loves the beef with Chinese broccoli — it’s one of her favorite dishes!

Overall, everything was fresh, flavorful, and very satisfying. I would definitely order again!“

“I just ate one of the best sushi meals I’ve ever had here! Honestly I can’t rave about it enough. I just walked a few minutes randomly from my hotel hoping to get an okay dinner during a work trip, and I ended up getting the most FANTASTIC SUSHI EVERRRRRR.

I got the mini omakase, which is 5 pieces of chef’s choice sushi and one hand roll for $35, and then I added one Hokkaido uni sushi piece as well.

This was perfectly enough for me for dinner - and I was pleasantly surprised that it came with miso soup as well!

The sushi pieces were each incredibly high quality and super delicious - it wasn’t just a random sad piece of “yellowtail” over rice, each piece was a well composed dish, with additional garnishes, flavor and sauces. I didn’t touch any soy sauce or anything at all the whole time! There was incredibly soft and flavorful chu toro with charred tomato. There was red snapper with picked wasabi, there was a bunch of other stuff I can’t remember specifically each fish and garnish combo but the one I had with the shaved truffle was INCREDIBLE.

I can’t believe it was only $35 for such fresh and creative sushi! I’m only sad I don’t live in NY and can’t conveniently come back. It was amazing!!!“

“My mind is blown. My 2nd lifetime omakase. I always had an aversion for raw food. But yolo so I tried bc my date loves it. Well I’m a changed woman. Every bite was delish. We opted for &69 unlimited sake combo. The best part was when he sprayed gold dust on the before then in the air! Party! The Chef could have been more friendly but he was a master. I’ll definitely come back.“

“Crazy that I never reviewed this spot! One of my favorite places in the Stuy, great staff, good food, and perfect cocktails. One of the only spots out here that has my favorite Gin -- there's something for everyone here, would definitely recommend.“

“Excellent Sushi ! Would highly recommend. Only wished they had Saki.“

“Great Sushi, absolutely fantastic, well done guys.“

“Randomly came by on a Sunday and both the service and food were great. Specifically loved the yuzu honey scallop handroll. Was able to pick each piece from the handroll menu as either spicy or classic which I really appreciated. They ran out of miso soup but other than that it was amazing“

“Can’t say enough good things about this place. Dollar for dollar probably the best restaurant in NYC. Wonderful mix of flavors that elevates omakase beyond just sashimi or nigiri pieces. Perhaps not for the traditionalists but never disappoints“

“I was visiting a friend in the neighborhood and we stumbled open this place and Wow! Excellent gem, exceeded my expectations!Only 4 tables but it looks like they do a lot of takeout. Fresh and affordable!

I live an hour away uptown, but definitely worth a visit again when I’m back in the area! ❤“

“Hi,

I previous left a comment about the ribeye in my ribeye pho being raw. I apologize for that comment as I had not realized at the time that is how it would typically be served. I felt my review needed to be updated after learning that info. My pho was delicious! Just a good refreshing noodle soup. Will be trying their other items soon“

“Cotra is my favorite restaurant in the area, and it's worth the trip even if you don't live nearby. The cocktails are dangerously good, the kind where you've ordered a second one before you've actually decided to. The ramen comes with properly chewy noodles, the karaage and wings are awesome, and the sushi holds its own. Somehow the burger is also delicious, which feels like a Japanese restaurant casually showing off. The whole place has a vibe that genuinely makes me miss Japan, the bartenders are friendly, and the owners and general manager are usually around and just as cool. Must check out.“

“Gotta love the ole KH. A local fave. No frills, affordable, reliable, delish. Anytime we’re in doubt we say…should we get Kanahashi?? And usually the answer is yes.

Big love. Get the peanut avocado roll it’s the simplest pleasure the world has to offer for $7“

“Went to 2 other omakase spots as a solo diner and was turned away for not having a reservation. Then found bondi and they were so kind and made room! The chef was fun and explained everything to me and the sushi was incredible. 12 courses with a great hand roll special 5 for $40. Can’t wait to come back!“

“อาหารอร่อย สะอาด การบริการดี รวดเร็ว“

“My Wife and I celebrated our one year anniversary here on a Sunday and we could not be happier.

We picked the omakase dinner set and was pleasantly surprised with how fresh all of their pieces were. From their uni with wagu piece , to their fatty toro, it was a treat all around.

Not to mention, they surprised us with a complimentary tiramisu cake after all of this . I look forward to coming back next time !“

“Expensive but it’s new York us cali people one order two pieces in NY one order one piece totally sucks“

“One of the best spots of sushi in Brooklyn!
The sushi is so good , the quality is consistently and have a lots of combos for lunch+ a miso soup! Really recommended this place!! Additionally the workers are very friendly and, if you pay in cash, you have a small discount!!.“

“Good atmosphere! Great service. Delicious food.“

“The delivery people don't carry change

Food was very good
The employees always have a smile very very good service

I ordered it twice in one day the first time it was good the second time it wasn't good“

“Excellent sushi, great service, great people.“

“The fish was incredibly fresh, and the rice was soft and perfectly cooked. I ordered the salmon set, and it was delicious and very reasonably priced. The restaurant is super cute, and the owner was so kind. She even gave me a complimentary drink! I’ll definitely be back. 🍣💕“

“The food and service is amazing!! Made our bunch perfect!!“

“Service is also very good, very patient attitude is also very good, we eat after also sent us ice cream really very nice“

“The best slushies in Brooklyn. I highly recommend the watermelon and the melon flavored slushies. I really appreciate they give you the option to choose the amount of sugar in the drinks. I definitely recommend Oops for a cool drink on these hot summer days.“

“My friends and I love this restaurant so much! The food is always delicious and the staff are so friendly and welcoming. I love the casual atmosphere. It’s great for meeting friends and for families as well. Can be busy at times so grab a drink at Sharlene’s while you wait!“

“The place specializes in a 12-piece Omakase set that is paired with different types of salt and DYI hand roll. The quality of the fish is very good, although the set itself is not very filling. You should feel full after eating a good Omakase set. That being said, the atmosphere is unique for NYC. I feel it tries a little too hard to be avant-garde, but if you like that sort of effort then you will enjoy your experience there.“

“Great food and friendly staff who always remember who we are!!“

“One of my friends told me about this place, and it’s a great spot to go after school. The yuzu ponzu salmon bowl was delicious and flavorful, and there are so many great options to add. The girl up front, Ayumi, was very sweet—she greeted me and explained the menu options. I would absolutely come back. 10/10 would recommend!“

“This is one of my go to spots every weekend, food never disappoints compared to the location in Chinatown which was a huge disappointment, never will try the Chinatown location again, going on forward will stick to this location, I would have thought if it’s same restaurant but different location food would be the same, but unfortunately not, Chinatown location was a huge huge disappointment“

“Fantastic food and atmosphere. I will be back in the future“

“Noribar consistently delivers high-quality kosher sushi. The ingredients are fresh, the menu offers great variety, and everything is beautifully prepared. The atmosphere is modern and welcoming, and service is always on point. A top-tier kosher sushi spot.“

“The sushi here is a great price and it is good, fresh quality! They also give you a punch card so on your 10th visit you get a free drink or roll. This is a great business to have in an area that is quickly becoming very expensive. A business that I will continue to support“

“I don't typically often order from silver rice because they're bit small in the portion side, they have unconventional food packaging containers and they're on the pricey side. However when it comes to the quality of the food they're worth it. I just had to Nagi rice cup and a seaweed salad I literally can't stop licking my chopsticks. It was so GOOD!. Even got better as you dug into the cup lol If you're looking for something different and on the lighter side that was just at the spot. So rice is a good option.“

“Sushi was very very fresh, taste and presentation was 10/10. Our new go to spot! The spicy mayo was also amazing, I love how perfectly spicy it is, other places it’s usually sweet and doesn’t taste right, this place is just overall amazing!!! I just ate ALOT and I'm thinking about it and how I could eat more, that’s how good it is! I cant wait to order from here again, best best sushi I’ve had in a very long time and Ive tried sooo many spots in Brooklyn, this place is 10/10, 100% recommend!!“

“Best restaurant in the area by far! Always great service and inventive and flavorful menu, with always a nice surprise from Chef Jason. Go team Yoyo! Don't hesitate to give them some love, you will get plenty in return. I am a fan (obviously!).“
