"Greenwich Village’s hardest-to-get-reservation award goes to Carbone, but its longest-line award goes to a low-key sushi restaurant right across the street. Tomo21 has a steady stream of takeout orders, but it’s worth waiting to dine in. It's a casual, light-wood space decorated with hand-drawn signs of menu offerings, like agedashi tofu, and seasonal soft shell crab. Focus on the sushi sets here, like the $28 Sushi Lunch with seven pieces of nigiri and a half-roll during the day, or the $43 Sushi Deluxe with 10 pieces of sushi and one roll in the evening. All the nigiri is ridiculously fresh, and surprisingly large. " - willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah, neha talreja, arden shore
