If I could give an extra star I would!
My husband and I had been dying for some delicious sushi. I’m used to LA abundance/ quality and since moving back to Boston haven’t had my fix! This place exceeded our expectations in all areas. We saw reviews and figured the sushi would be delicious but the service and environment were also great.
Sushi- we did the 12 piece omakasi experience which was excellent. We had an incredible variety from toro, scallop, ending with a delicious hand roll. We had sushi unlike any I’ve had before- some classic, some with seared tomato, shishito peppers, fresh truffle. You could taste the quality of the fish and the sauces were paired perfectly without being over powering. We ended our course with a sesame rice dessert that was both unique and to die for.
Service: all sushi chefs were friendly, engaging, funny and just incredibly accommodating. They even played music and brought out a cake for my husband. They were awesome!
Environment- one would assume upscale sushi especially in a smaller restaurant would be a bit stuffy or snooty but we had a lovely, intimate and fun experience overall.
We will come back to nyc just for this restaurant. Thank you!

Get the Omakase.
I’ve been here three times - one in Prospect Height, Park Slope, and SoHo. It’s hands down, not even close, the best Omakase in the city.
I’ve had several Michelin star Omakases at other restaurants and Sushi Lin blows them away.
The fish is fresh. The ingredients are superior. The chef is a magician. The flavor combos are perfect.
There are a few restaurants where a bite can evoke an emotional response. Where you will remember who you were with, what emotion you felt, and the pure joy that permeates throughout your body.
Sushi Lin is one of those places. The Omakase is art. I would highly recommend.

I love this place and go frequently, but I went for an 8pm seating, only got seated at 8.30, no food until 9. The service was all over the place seemed there were a million things going on at once. Some pieces were forgotten. The entire thing lasted 2.5 hours. It’s a shame because I am a frequent customer but this experience was very disappointing

Sushi Lin in Soho is a hidden gem for omakase lovers! The quality of the fish is exceptional—fresh, perfectly cut, and thoughtfully paired with house-made sauces and seasonings. The chefs are incredibly skilled and make the experience feel intimate and special, explaining each course with great detail. The ambiance is cozy yet elegant, perfect for a date night or special occasion.
Every bite was an explosion of flavor, from the melt-in-your-mouth toro to the delicately balanced uni and unforgettable salmon tomato. The pacing of the meal was just right, never rushed but always engaging. Service was attentive without being intrusive, making the whole experience feel effortless.
If you’re looking for an authentic omakase experience in Soho at a reasonable price point for the quality, Sushi Lin is a must-visit. Can’t wait to return!

Sushi Lin is an absolute gem! From start to finish, the omakase experience was exceptional. Every piece was incredibly fresh, perfectly balanced, and beautifully presented. You can truly taste the quality and craftsmanship in every bite. Jeffrey was amazing—his attention to detail, knowledge, and warm hospitality made the experience even more memorable. If you’re looking for top-tier sushi in an intimate and welcoming setting, this is the place to go. Can’t wait to come back!
Had an absolutely lovely omakase experience here. Every bite was an incredible dive in Japanese fine dining. The sushi was fresh and innovative. It ranged from melt in your mouth goodness to refreshing and airy. The sake was top knotch and the service excellent. Really great intimate time. Would come again. Highly recommend!

The service was absolutely terrible. The server had a cold attitude with no smile, yet was very friendly and smiling at the neighboring table. We received zero service—they even helped the other table hang their coats but completely ignored us. No refill water and only once refill the wine, we also had to call for the bill ourselves. I have never experienced such awful service! Food was so so too.

food: we got the 12 course omakase. our favorite was their signature piece (salmon tomato), so we ordered extra; but a different chef made it, and it wasn't as good (it was falling apart and there was a little bit of rice).
this was our 2nd time at an omakase, so we're not too experienced. idt omakases are for us though... it's just not filling enough, and we're not as appreciative of sushi as we should be.
service: staff was attentive, always refilling our water. they were able to accommodate us when we arrived earlier than our reservation since there was space. they also gave us a free slice of cheesecake for my early bday celebration (it was a bit frozen though)
