Make a ressie if ya can, we waited about 35 mins. The sushi deluxe is where it's at (or the omasake), but it came w/ a roll of your choice & 9 pieces of sushi including uni and roe . Affordable too!

Christopher Long

I join those who recommend the Omakase . The fish is fresh and full of flavor. The regular Omakase is $45 and the mini is $24 (pictured below). The mini with an appetizer was sufficient as a meal.

Ina Li

Best value to quality sushi restaurant in New York. $45 12 pieces omakase like no others. Epic otoro and ebi onigiri

ZenFoodster

Best value Jap-Chinese owed sushi joint in NYC! Love 9-pc w/ 1 roll “Sushi Deluxe” (+$1 for CA Uni), Gyoza , hot Soba , Mixed Seaweed Salad , Tofu Steak , Yellowtail Toro Scallion & Futomaki/Veggie rolls .

Ivana Li

Fresh, delicious and affordable sushi / omakase in Manhattan! (Don't expect a super unique selection of fish though) Perfect for dinner before a show at Lincoln Center. Reserve ahead of time.

Binx

Absolute go-to. Reasonable price with high-quality food. Yasaka never lets me down. This is the first restaurant that makes me realize how wonderfully delicious fresh avocado and eel can be.

Lisa Finn

A classy Japanese restaurant with simple yet decadent dishes, and amazing cuts of fish . A bit of a wait on weekends, but worth it. The toro tartare appetizer (pic) was fresh and bursting with flavor.

Morgan McKee

Simple, cheap(ish) sushi . Just the goods but fresh and flavorful. Enjoy some rolls with beer and wine (all they serve, incl. sake ) for a low key night out ???? ????

Alex Zaltsman

Unlike run of the mill sushi joints in the area This place is the real deal. The omakase was outstanding, and not just the quality of the fish but also the garnishes and sauce for each one.

Marc Tunguz

Walk by this restaurant and decided to give it a try. Wasn't disappointed at all! The ramen were delicious. Didn't try the sushi but you can tell the fish is delicious just by the look of it.

We got a lunch combo with a bland soba noodle soup (3/10) spicy salmon maki (6/10), california maki (7/10) & eel avocado maki (8/10) for $26. We went again but it wasn't as good the second time. 6/10

Madeline McDavid

Incredibly fresh fish makes for delicious rolls , sushi and sashimi . Lovely selection of appetizers , too and good value lunch bento box meals. Best Japanese on the UWS by a mile.

Caitlin Sakdalan

Best omakase deal! $45 for 12 pieces of chefs choice and 1 roll . Do it right, sit at the sushi bar and enjoy quality fish ! And great sushi and tempura overall on the UWS.

Melissa Rosenthal

Really great sushi for the price. Sushi deluxe is an excellent deal for the price/ quality of fish .

Daniel Douglas

Top quality sushi and other Japanese dishes , superior to everything on the Upper Westside until one pays twice the bill. And then on par with straight forward sushi at the well-known high-end places.

Tracey Zane

I love their sushi entree - $21 for 9 pieces and a roll ! The fish here is so fresh and delish, and the prices are so reasonable. One of my favorite sushi places in the city .

Saba Neko

Sashimi deluxe comes with an oyster , fish cuts are very thick, and really good quality fish ! Definitely make a reservation for this place tho, there can be a wait

Baturalp

Omakase was super fresh and delicious. It’s reasonably priced at $50 for 12 pieces of sushi and a maki roll .

Mike Sleep

easily the best sushi spot in the neighborhood . the fish is always amazing and the prices are so reasonable. it's always crowded so reservations are a good idea.

Julie Qiu

The $40 Chef 's Omakase is probably one of the best and tasty sushi deals I've encountered on the UWS. 12 pieces + 1 maki roll , prepared with much TLC. Each piece is amazing. Must. Try.

Tord Sollie

Brilliant lunch place. We had the omasake and the miso , both very good. The place opened at 12, and 12.15 it was full. Local gem.

EArchitect

This small sushi restaurant is located where Momiji Sushi used to be next to a restaurant called "My Most Favorite Food." You get good sushi at a good price here.

Brad Zacharia

Sat at the bar which I prefer at sushi bars . Had the $45 Omakase and my wife had the $24 mini-Omakase. Fish was incredibly fresh. Subtle but effective presentation. Best sushi I have had on UWS.

Lori Sherman

Lunch specials are a good deal . The king salmon is delicious. Make reservations ..always busy.

Christopher Van Dunk

Loved everything I had; seaweed salad , shrimp dumplings and the pork dumplings . Spicy tuna roll is always a favorite. But don't miss the vegetable tempura plate; DELICIOUS.

XL Z

sooooo good and fresh! Been here couple times and will come back soon

Caroline Schulweis

The omakase is delicious and great value . Included fatty tuna , uni, and lots of other great stuff.

Elynn Lee

Love the chirashi lunch special ! Their sushi is always so fresh and yummy. The Miyabi lunch is also really nice. My favorite sushi place in the city !

Simon H

Really great sushi for a good price. I've never seen a sushi place with uni on their sushi deluxe set at this price range... very good sign. Very good sushi .

Daniel Douglas

Outstanding omakase - impressive selection for $45Hard to beat at the price in tout NYC. Great service. Fine sake . What more do you want.

A great ambiance with quality sushi at unparalleled prices. We love coming here for a satisfying and causal dinner . The waitresses are always professional and attentive.

Federica Rapa

Amazing sushi , nice place and good service ! Try mix Tempura and the delicious green tea crepes like dessert !

Ki Choi

The omakase is a great value and is a fantastic choice. One of the better ones I've had in NYC! Saved the uni for the last bite ...

Adna

The tempura soba contained three pieces of vegetables and two shrimp . Well worth the price. Great service.

Talya Arbisser

Super fresh AND reasonably priced. Everything we got was delicious. It’s a busy place though... consider making a reservation .

This is the best sushi spot in the neighborhood and it gets very crowded on the weekends. Be ready to wait or make a reservation .

Excellent sushi for casual outings. Extensive menu. Spicy tuna & salmon rolls were our favorites. Always busy.

We did the omakse and it was great. Incredibly reasonable prices. Was a quick experience and the restaurant is very casual .

Cozy spot . Always make a reservation . Excellent selection of fresh fish at an awesome price. Sashimi and brown rice—every.damn.day!

pipitu

Great fresh sushi and sashimi at a reasonable price. My go to place for sushi .

Teruhisa Haruguchi

Fishes on the chirashi are tasty and generously cut. Omakase has lots of great fishes but presentation wasn't great. (Order for three got put in the same plate like a party platter)

Greg Levitt

Best sushi I have had on the upper west side. Excellent omakase .

Elena Sor

Best spicy tuna , salmon and shrimp rolls ever. Very crowded , make sure you get a reservation .

Jackie Park

On weekends, make sure to make a reservation ! and most importantly get sushi Omakase (regular) if you're there for first time and willing to splurge on yourself~ :D

Julie Tran

The Agedashi tofu was cheap and delicious if you enjoy tofu .

amelie

My favorite sushi joint for take out and dine in in the uws. Homey , clean , and fresh. Be prepared for a long wait during dinner .
