I hardly ever write reviews but this place is not pretentious and all the staff is cool. Shoutout to David 🫶

I booked the full 23 seating for a birthday and it was a great experience. Great service, super accommodating and made sure everyone was having fun which I really appreciated

Well worth the $98 per person, sushi is surprisingly good quality. Totally recommend especially for birthdays!

It was great with unlimited sushi options! We had such a fun time chatting with the chef and he was super friendly, and all the staff were really nice too. The scallop sushi was especially good. I ended up getting 11 extra pieces and it was the perfect amount. The all you can eat extras were a bit smaller than regular size but still tasty. One thing is the the place was too small and the seatings were too tight to each other which was not that comfortable but other than that, the experience was good.

I have to say that the staff here was utterly amazing to have to put up with the group that I came with. Great service and a great meal. Thanks so much.

Fun atmosphere, I'd come here more for the experience rather than quality of sashimi. The wagyu was so-so. Was a good dinner out.

Went yesterday the omakase was great, the fish quality was amazing. At the end the unlimited portion was a treat. I highly recommend. Also staff were so friendly! They were constantly re filling our sake.

ALL HYPE, NO EXPERIENCE! This place is all hype. The service was rushed we barely had time to enjoy each piece, actually barely enough time to digest. Omakase is supposed to be an experience, not a conveyor belt.

Portions were tiny, and the so called ā€œunlimitedā€ option felt like a scam!! You have to pre-select the number of pieces, and what you get is mouse-sized. Why bother! For the price, it’s just not worth it. Sadly, I’d rather go to a regular sushi restaurant next time. At least there, I’d have a better dining experience and real value for my money.

Amazing omakase, we were surprised after the 14-course meal with an All you can eat service of our favorite piece.

Amazing service and super worth 100$ per person

The Sour Aji branch in the East Village is way better in terms of food and service. Go to that one instead if you want to try this omakase

Seated at the window and not on the counter because they were fully booked. I know counter seating gets served first, so I’m aware there will be a wait to get our courses. 25 mins left into our time and we were just being asked about the unlimited wagyu. And the server reminded us of the time left- which I have no problem with, but the way she reminded us as if she was hurrying us and almost hinting ā€œdon’t order a lot because there’s no more timeā€. We got served the last unli course with only about 15mins left. Then got served half a mochi only per person. I definitely had better experience in the east village branch on ave B. Got unli miso soup, a whole mochi, and we were asked in advance how many pcs of unli sushi we wanted so didn’t feel rushed at all in the other branch.

Also preferred the fatty tuna in avenue B. But otherwise the other courses were very flavorful and fresh.

The omakase was very good!! The scallop and shrimp were amazing along with the eel. We went on July 5 2025 and the sushi chef was awesome! Kept taking shots with us. I've been to other omakase but this was the only one that was unlimited sushi and alcohol. He even let you torch one of the rolls yourself which was always fun. Would highly recommend!!!

A great experience at SourAji… 14 course omakase was delish as well as the AYCE portion of evening where the offered fish included fatty tuna, salmon and wagyu beef. Nice service as well
