"SourAji in the East Village is different—and it's a deal at $98 per person. A 90-minute meal in the narrow room with two counters starts as a traditional 14-course omakase (including soup and ice cream). After that, the all-you-can-eat portion of the night begins. The pieces are fairly standard (akami, toro with uni, madai, torched wagyu), but the fish feels well-cared for and the rice is nicely seasoned. Did we mention there's all-you-can-drink sake or beer too? If you’re shameless—the sake should help with that—you can eat an unholy amount of fish. We saw one couple getting 30 extra pieces each. There's also a Chelsea location, if you can't get a reservation at the original." - neha talreja, bryan kim, kenny yang, hannah albertine, will hartman
