"We can't think of any other restaurant experience that combines sparklers and hand rolls, torched tuna topped with chili garlic crisp, and the level of sake-fueled fun that you’ll find at Sushi On Me in Jackson Heights. There are four nightly seatings, each of which last around an hour. For $99 (cash or cash apps only), you’ll get 15 pieces of nigiri, a couple of appetizers, and unlimited sake. You can also visit the newer, pricier location in Williamsburg, but we prefer the original." - neha talreja, bryan kim, kenny yang, hannah albertine, will hartman

"If you need excessive amounts of fun but just have about an hour, book a counter spot for the $99 omakase at Sushi on Me in Jackson Heights. With a disco ball on the ceiling, a Radiohead poster, and a neon sign that says “Enjoy Your Fucking Dinner,” this speakeasy-ish spot leans into slacker cool. But it’s actually a highly choreographed performance, from the “Hooked on a Feeling” ooga chuggas that drop as you slurp your first oyster, to the “smoked” salmon that you’ll half-inhale as the staff sing along to “Because I Got High”. Your sake glass will never be empty, but if you need the party to go on a little longer, head to Upstairs Cocktail Bar next-door for a nightcap." - willa moore, sonal shah, bryan kim, neha talreja, will hartman

"Sushi on Me is a raucous, all-you-can-drink, cash-only party. It’s located inside of a Jackson Heights basement (there’s a second location in Williamsburg; however, nothing is quite as fun as the original). Sushi on Me set the tone for a new era of omakase experiences in New York: the kind that can actually be unbuttoned fun, where the music is loud, and the cussing flows as freely as the alcohol." - Eater Staff

"NEW YORK For excessive amounts of fun in under 90 minutes, book a counter spot for the $99 omakase at Sushi On Me in Queens. The place looks sort of slapped together: there’s a disco ball on the ceiling, alt-rock posters, and a neon sign that says “Enjoy Your F*cking Dinner.” But the meal has a precise choreography, from the “Hooked on a Feeling” ooga chuggas that drop as you slurp oysters, to the “smoked” salmon you’ll inhale as the staff sing along to “Because I Got High.” It’s sort of like Broadway with fish and bottomless sake. If you need the party to go on a little longer, head to Upstairs Cocktail Bar next door for a nightcap." - anne cruz

"Sushi On Me in Jackson Heights doesn’t have a private room—but the restaurant is only about the size of a studio apartment, and you can book the whole place with a group of your friends. For $99 per person, your group can sit at a counter and eat a 15-course omakase with bottomless sake. It’s a good time—just remember to plan at least a month in advance. This place is popular." - team infatuation
