The New York Times: Recommended dishes: Sushi and sashimi, flash-fried shrimp, grilled fish liver and flash-fried eel bones. Read more.
Ina Li: Trust the omakasa menu if you are not sure. But definitely get Uni, Freshwater Eel, Toro, Tamago and Salmon! We for okamasa with several pieces extra, 120 per person. No tipping here
Leslie Teng: Food is worth every penny. Sushi matsu gives good variety for reasonable price. Uni is creamy. Sea scallop is shiny and fresh. Eel is plump and tender. The shrimp is sweet and firm.

Fee O: Cucumber wrapped eel.
Dens: Omakase from the downstairs sushi bar is amazing. Don't leave without trying the hand rolls (go spicy tuna!). I was also digging the salmon-meets-blowtorch sushi. Ask for fresh wasabi too.
New York Habitat: If you are a sushi lover, this is the right place! Make sure to try their spicy tuna rolls, and Sushi & Sashimi Combination. And the prices are good for what you get!

Jorge Chevalier: Outstanding atention, excelent duck and rolls: Neptuno, Spider and Eel.....
M23: Good quality sushi. Portions are very generous. Friendly staff. I'd definitely recommend it as an inexpensive and low key sushi place for a causal meal.
Alisha Outridge: Try the Sambai Delight. If you like spice ask for extra on the side because their spice isn't enough.
