Where To BYOB In NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"When you're on (or near) the Upper West Side and want to keep things simple with a couple of beers, a bottle of sake and some affordable sushi, Mangetsu is a great choice. The basic inside-out rolls are pristine, there's a generous chirashi bowl, and plenty of options that get wild with tempura, eel sauce, and pink soy paper. In the atmosphere department, there's not a ton going on, other than that pop hit you played non-stop during the summer of 2007. But watching the chef tightly roll maki, mound pungent fresh wasabi on ceramic platters, or top chirashi don with ikura is entertainment enough." - molly fitzpatrick, bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah
