"We always recommend Sushi Katsuei to anyone looking for a terrific, creative omakase that they can eat without feeling like Mr. Monopoly. This Park Slope restaurant opened in 2014, and then expanded to the West Village in 2017. Omakases at both locations start around $60 for nine pieces and a handroll, often highlighting unusual pieces like firefly squid or barracuda (plus more typical fan favorites like toro or uni). You could always order a la carte or level up and try the open-style omakase, which can cost anywhere from $130-$200, but the $60 deal feels sweetest to us." - bryan kim, neha talreja, hannah albertine, will hartman, sonal shah
"When anyone asks us where they can eat incredible, creative sushi for under $100, we wish we could pick them up like a Monopoly house and place them outside of Sushi Katsuei in the West Village. Sit at the bar here, and you’ll wonder why there aren’t more places that serve raw fish this good for this price. Omakase options start at $65 for nine pieces and a hand roll, and they often include unusual pieces like firefly squid or barracuda. Sushi Katsuei also has a location in Park Slope, where the omakase starts at $60." - neha talreja, bryan kim, kenny yang, hannah albertine, will hartman
"Sushi Katsuei started in Park Slope, and it became so popular that it expanded to Manhattan. This is one of the best places in the West Village to eat incredible, creative sushi for under $100. Sit at the long wooden bar, and after a couple pieces of nigiri, you’ll wonder why there aren’t more places that serve raw fish this good for this price. Omakase options start at $65 for nine pieces and a handroll, and they often include unusual options like firefly squid or barracuda." - bryan kim, neha talreja, will hartman, sonal shah

"Price-wise, Sushi Katsuei is on the low end of the higher-end sushi spots. What that means is that you can get an omakase that’s good enough to make your Friday night or make up for your Monday afternoon for $65. It comes with nine pieces and a handroll - and there are a bunch of a la carte options as well." - matt tervooren
