"At Neta Shari’s 18-course, $125 omakase, you might get three courses of uni from different parts of the world—and that’s only part of the reason why we think it’s one of the city’s best omakase deals. Though the dining room is barely big enough for the sushi bar, there’s no skimping on quality or finesse. The starters and nigiri are perfectly executed, there’s a good sake selection, and the pace of the meal is leisurely, especially compared to other options in this price range, which can sometimes feel like a barrage of pricey seafood. Make a reservation in advance, or order from a more flexible takeout menu." - carina finn koeppicus, neha talreja
"This small yet stylish spot in Bensonhurst prevails over its competitors thanks to a solid and real-value omakase. In terms of design, it feels contemporary and sparse, featuring a cobalt-blue accent wall, futon up front and that omnipresent counter crafted from warm matte wood. Behind, decorative squares with geometric patterns set the tone for a meal equally replete with flair and flavor.Impressive knife skills are apparent in their perfectly sized bites. Some high points include creamy Hokkaido scallop lifted with lime zest, and Arctic char with yuzu miso and a sliver of lightly crisped skin. Aji marinated in a vinegar blend is toothsome and tart; while eel, seared on both sides and finished with a dot of thick, sweet soy, is a buttery delight." - Michelin Inspector

"At Neta Shari’s 15-course, $75 omakase, you might get three courses of uni from different parts of the world—and that’s only part of the reason why we think it’s one of the city’s best under-$100 omakase deals.
