Love to get sushi here all of the things that we’ve had have been great really enjoy the vegetable tempura as well
Amazing sushi, reminds me of my time in Japan. Excellent price as well in my opinion.
Lunch special for three rolls is a great find! It’s even available on the weekend
Highly recommend the negi toro roll, marinated European Snapper sushi and vegetable tempura. Great value and quality !
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.
Delicious sushi for a decent price. make a reservation ahead of time and get the omakase or sushi deluxe.
If they have the seasonal vegetable tempura, order it--it comes with these amazing salts. And then thank me @moth.
Get the seasonal vegetable tempura; it's served with Japanese celery salt for dipping in place of soy sauce. Exquisite.
Try the Kikusui Perfect Snow Sake - Very creamy :)
I recommend getting the fried chicken to start + share. The vegetable tempura udon was delicious - great if you're in the mood for a more traditional udon. Really loved the way they did their tempura!
Tiny spot serving what is likely the best udon in NYC. There will be a wait, but it will be worth it. For sure get the Niku (short rib and tripe udon), the flavors are insane!
Definitely get an order of the fried chicken to start, then go for any of the udon bowls.
Get the shrimp and veggie tempura!
I had vegetable tempura! It's great for the price!
Hot Udon noodles and a Sapporo Special Reserve, perfect filling and delicious late-night comfort food.
The baked soy nuggets are great, as is their daily veggie selection. But, you MUST try the coconut cream pie! Wow!
Go to Peacefood and get the seitan panini. So delicious.
Get the omakase. Very good fresh fish and relaxing atmosphere! Worth a visit in the UES.
Sushi for two was tasty. Service is great, place is also really clean.
Omakase or sushi for two.
What we loved: the organic chicken, tuna avocado salad, Wagyu beef, snow crab roll, vegetable tempura: not as much, the fried chicken, the soba noodles
Most beautiful space I've seen for a Japanese restaurant in the city. It's spacious and has high ceilings. The brunch menu is amazing I would recommend the sake teishoku (salmon).
Get the freshly-made house tofu! It's fantastic
One of the best Japanese restaurants outside of Japan. Ask for any special sushi/sashimi options of the menu -- they may have something very nice. Also the Ohmi beef is amazing (but $) nocheap :))
With 82 seats, Kappo Masa is a comfortable space that also looks to be making its mark in the field of industrial design. Aside from the decor the food is second to none. Be sure to try the truffles. Read more.
For those looking to treat themselves, there is a lunch omakase created by the chef for $175, which includes three appetizers, five flights of sushi, dessert and tea. Read more.
Like being transported to Tokyo at this hidden gem. The taro and vegetable tempura and egg custard with shrimp and chicken were highlights.
Underground restaurant and bar with amazing sashimi! Try the agedashi tofu as well
best izakaya-style Japanese food in the city
As close to the famous Tempura Kondo in Tokyo as you can get without having to book 1 year in advance and fly there. Authentic experience. Sit at the counter if possible.
Dobin Mushi was beyond perfect. UMAMI!!!!!
Everything . Menu degustation
Yummy and artfully presented sushi plus great teriyaki. The Hawaiian selections are next on my list.
Spider roll is the sooo good.
The sushi is probably the best you will find in Harlem.
Get the superman roll. Tuna avocado sala is also great.
My go-to sushi spot in the East Village. Sit at the sushi bar and chat with Jack, the chef. He's hilarious and the high quality + unique sushi here is an amazing bang for your buck.
Jack is the MAN!
Best Agedashi and Sashimi I have ever had. Also of note: the Shabu-Shabu and the Omen Udon (served cold).
"Even though it gets a big fashion and art-world crowd, it always has a Zen vibe. It's my sanctuary, even on weekend nights. I get the black cod." -Chloe Sevigny, in the WSJ's Insider's Guide to NYC Read more.
For some odd reason you'll see fashion editors, creative directors and downtown artists here which creates an interesting vibe. This place rules just for the food and staff. -Diana
A hidden gem! Easy to miss, walk down the stairs. Sashimi is so fresh and as the place is so small and cosy the service is great. Go the tuna - you won't be disappointed.
Great fish, but I don't understand the music they play here. Madonna and disco don't make for a relaxing dinner. Put on some jazz!
This raw fish is greeeat !! Real Japanese sushi ! Thumbs up !
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
