The 18 Best Sushi Spots In NYC
"There's plenty of good sushi on the Upper West Side, but we love the 13-course omakase at Kaito ($98). Every two or three rounds of nigiri will be broken up by a cooked dish like tempura-fried hake in a mushroom broth, and maybe a smoked goldeneye snapper collar if you’re lucky. The sushi tends to lean traditional here, but the chefs behind the 10-seat counter slice the fish notably thicker than most places. When you’re eating hefty pieces of king salmon, Japanese mackerel with ginger, or sweet shrimp with yuzu zest, you’ll really feel like you’re getting your money’s worth (and also like your mouth has an entire fish in it)." - bryan kim, neha talreja, hannah albertine, will hartman
