50 Best Sushi Bars near College Point

“Got the house steak, California roll and shrimp noodles. All three dishes were delicious!!! Honestly everytime i come here the food seems to get better, ive tried multiple dishes and havent been disappointed. Waitress is attentive and kind as well and big portions are given. Truly a college point hidden gem. Im suprised its not more popular!“

“Great service, write a review and they answer right away and take care away. Love it. ❤“

“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.“

“Delicious fresh food and amazing drinks! Celebrated my friend’s bday there and we had a 12 course menu! Great atmosphere and the DJ was a great touch! Had a great time at Kaizen.“

“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.“

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

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

“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.“

“Great food very good service“

“Fantastic restaurant, the sushi is great quality, and deliciously prepared. Also a great happy hour menu! Prices are reasonable for NYC sushi, and they have something for everyone (if you don’t like sushi, there are other more meat forward options.) It was my second time there, and I hope to get back soon!“

“Absolutely outstanding experience at Prime No.7. David looked after me from start to finish and his customer service was genuinely 10/10. He was friendly, professional, and took his time to make sure everything was perfect. You can tell he really cares about his customers and takes pride in his work. Easily the best service I’ve had in a long time. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending David to everyone I know.“

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

“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.“

“PHENOMENAL! I was a little leary of omakase in East Harlem and at the price point, but this place hits it out of the park. Very simple ambiance and decor but made up for by very charismatic service staff and professional cooks. Splurge on the premium omakase, it's worth it for the chutoro...nice and fatty. Will definitely give Sugarfish a run for their money and it's nice to see uptown. Meal can get a little rushed at times given the high turnover; however, the pace keeps it moving. Nice to see this quality food and experience uptown, and I will definitely be back.“

“Best Omakase I’ve ever had 😊“

“TSUMO – UWS was an absolute blast.
We went as a group of six and had such a fun, high‑energy experience from start to finish. The vibe is lively without feeling chaotic, and the staff clearly loves what they do, which makes a huge difference.

The omakase was AMAZING, especially for the price. Every piece felt thoughtful, fresh, and beautifully prepared. Starting with the 13 initial pieces was perfect, and we loved being able to add more afterward. It made the whole experience feel flexible and indulgent without pressure.

Great food, great energy, and a format that works perfectly for a group night out. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend. 🍣✨“

“An amazing omakase dining experience at Shota. Premium ingredients and amazing taste. Each and every course was finely prepared and beautifully presented. Service was top notch throughout. Sake list was also impressive with massive selections of both common and rare sakes. Some rare ones were priced pretty steep.
This restaurant is a treasure on South Street in Brooklyn. Definitely recommended!“

“Best sushi I ever eat in NYC“

“I've been to a dozen omakase places across nyc and japan, and this is a standout gem. Chef takes a modern approach to sushi with his own style, but preserves the essence of sushi. The flavors are elegant, layered, and delicious.

Standouts include the black cod with black truffle, trout (smoked?), hokkaido scallop with hokkaido uni, fish with bottarga and foie gras, and all kinds of toro (tuna).“

“This is the best omakase experience we’ve ever had! The fish was so fresh and you can tell the chefs put a lot of thought behind the flavor of each piece. We came here for my boyfriends birthday and they truly made it a special experience. We couldn’t stop raving about how good it was and will absolutely be back. From the sushi to the service, everything was so amazing. I hope one day they offer takeout experiences because I can tell it would be amazing quality. Thank you!“

“Had a wonderful experience at UKA Omakase! The food was fresh, beautifully prepared, and every course was delicious. Andy took great care of us throughout the meal—he was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be back!“

“Tuna cutting ceremony was a thrill in all respects… great staff here !“

“Tsubomi is one of the most authentic Japanese restaurants I have visited in New York. The restaurant is run by Chef Genta and his wife, Beth, and their warm hospitality makes every guest feel at home.

Chef Genta trained extensively in traditional kaiseki cuisine in several cities across Japan and also perfected his sushi craftsmanship at the renowned Ginza Kyubey, one of Japan’s most respected sushi restaurants.

What makes Tsubomi special is that you can enjoy truly high quality sushi and traditional Japanese foods in a cozy and charming setting without the intimidating formality often associated with fine dining. Their lunch menu is especially affordable, and every dish is prepared with exceptional care and technique.

If you are looking for genuine Japanese foods and expertly crafted sushi, I highly recommend Tsubomi. It is a restaurant I will happily return to again and again.“

“The best sushi I ever had.Friendly chef and attentive staff.“

“We went to Shogun Omakase in New York yesterday for lunch. My son loves sushi and it was his birthday present (our first time experiencing Omakase). We were blown away! Seriously the best sushi experience (and to be honest, one of our top restaurant experiences) ever. Chef Ryan was an amazing chef and artist, and provided top notch customer service. We highly recommend Chef Ryan and Shogun Omakase to anyone who loves sushi and appreciates fine cuisine. ❤️🎉“

“I highly recommend! The design and food is awesome.“

“We came it at an extremely late time (~30-40 minutes before closing) and they were the only sushi place still open. Not only that, they had amazing menus on iPads and gave us multiple options for water. Lastly, they had our food out extremely quickly and it was extremely good, especially the fries which was very surprising. Each roll was very pretty and perfect for photos. Thank you so much for Sam and Brooklyn for their incredible service at such a late night, it meant a lot because it was after my sister’s graduation and she loves sushi. Would definitely recommend this place, the atmosphere was amazing as well.“

“My husband and I came here on a whim, and while the food was good—we ordered the sushi—I think we’d try the regular noodles next time. What truly made this place stand out, though, was the service. Jack was fantastic—so personable, kind, funny, and attentive. He checked in at all the right moments and made the whole experience feel special. Honestly, I’d hire him to work with us if I could! We will definitely be back.“

“this place is amazing; the food the service and the atmosphere….its jus sooo good and fresh and i appreciate that they are in my neighborhood

fany and phyo have both helped me and they are kind and friendly and knowledgeable

mikado, you’re fortunate to have both fany and phyo on your side

give this place a try you won’t regret“

“Great for dates and just having a good conversation with a friend. I got the unlimited drinks, and it's really made the dinner. After a while, the season rice can make everything taste the same.

However it's price well for the food and service. In all, I had a great time.“

“Great spot ...............“

“WOW! My friend and I went today and had such a great experience! The staff were so friendly and kind, constantly checking in and chatting with us. The sushi was so delicious with new flavor combinations and the freshest ingredients. I have been to a few other Omakase restaurants in the city and this is definitely going up there on my list. I will DEFINITELY be back.“

“Server Xin from Sushi Gama has set a high standard for restaurants in the East Side area! Our server, Xin, was the best part of our experience. Xin displayed wonderful customer service and is by far the best server we've ever encountered. A big shout-out to Xin! He was a wonderful waiter because he provided amazing service and was very attentive. He kept changing out any dirty plates without us even having to ask. We would definitely come back for him!“

“Many people seem to enjoy this place, and there is a good variety of food and drinks. The food was generally quite good, except for the jjimdak (steamed chicken). It looked amazing in the menu photos, but it arrived undercooked and had to be cooked longer at our table, which took quite a while. When it was done. it was also a bit spicier than we expected as well
The restaurant was very busy on a Friday night, with people waiting for tables. Because of that, it felt like there was some pressure to finish and leave rather than relax and stay for a long conversation. In that sense, it felt more like a traditional Korean restaurant than a bar where you can sit with friends and talk for hours. Overall, the food and atmosphere were good, but the dining experience felt a bit rushed.“

“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.“

“No nonsense very high quality omakase. The food was great, typical omakase setting with the chefs preparing the dishes in front of you.
Shame we couldn't really talk to the chefs as they were busy getting us done in the strictly enforced 1 hour slot.
This is the only thing I would criticise... It felt all a bit rushed.
But the price/quality ratio was superb if you stick to the offered menu“

“This is honestly one of the best Japanese restaurant in NYC! As a raw fish lover, I’m always looking for places that serve truly high quality fish, and this place absolutely delivers. Super fresh fish, and an amazing dining experiences!“

“Our family’s favorite sushi spot in NYC—
The quality and consistency keep us coming back every time. Every visit feels special, the fish is always incredibly fresh, and the chefs are warm and welcoming.
If you’re looking for an authentic omakase experience in New York City, this is it.“

“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've been here a few times. See the same staff every time, and they're great. I got the chirashi once, and now it's all I get. The fish in it is the best I've ever had. Great selection, huge pieces, super fresh, fair price. You won't be disappointed!“

“Great Omakase It will make you fell, that you are in Tokyo“

“깔끔하고 깊은 맛이 좋았습니다.“

“It was a cool place great food and atmosphere“

“I’ve only order from here but love the BOGO spicy tuna crispy rice roll. I order it at least once a week. The packaging is very cute and I am constantly craving it. ( good for me - not good for my bank account )

Highly recommend if you’re craving sushi. I also love the shrimp tempura roll. It’s citrusy compared to others which elevates a lot!“

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

“amazing place, we have a great dinner. thank you.“

“PERFECTION 👌 👍 If you are looking for a relaxed small sushi shop OMAKASE ONLY experience in the UES. ❤ The nearby places are usually packed with people and this place is a good breather from the crowds 😄 Note ⚠ that this is about $70 or $100 per person omakase but WELL WORTH IT to be honest 👍 Most ingredients brought from Tokyo's fish 🐟 market directly 😀“

“Went here last Saturday for my friend’s birthday and honestly, everything was SO good. Every single piece was delicious and felt so intentional and thoughtfully put together. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients, and each piece had its own flavor instead of everything just blending together.

The whole experience was amazing from start to finish. The food was fresh, high quality, and genuinely so delicious. There wasn’t a single piece I didn’t enjoy. Such a perfect spot for a birthday or special occasion. Definitely one of those places you leave already thinking about when you can come back 😭 10/10 experience! 💝“

““I had a great experience here. The food was fresh and delicious, especially the omakase set. Staff were friendly and service was quick. The restaurant was clean with a relaxing atmosphere. Prices were reasonable for the quality. Definitely worth visiting!”“

“We had a great time at Omakase Shihou. I felt like I was in a Japanese speak easy. It has a secret back room vibe that felt exclusive. The food was impeccable. Well curated and delicious. The chefs know their stuff. The waitress was super nice and helpful as well“
