"The casual Sushi Daizen is one of the few places in the Long Island City area offering omakase. It comes at two price points: $75 for a three-dish appetizer, soup, 10 pieces of nigiri, and a handroll, or a $90 option with both sushi and sashimi. Menu highlights include a spot shrimp, Santa Barbara sea urchin, kawa kawa from Japan, and a fatty tuna hand roll studded with scallions, though menu items vary by season. There are 10 seats at the counter for omakase, as well as four smaller tables and one larger in the dining area seating an additional 20 or so diners." - Lorelei Yang
