Sushi Sho

The ambiance is beautiful. The service is great, except my partner and I can’t help but feel they constantly haggle and ask non stop if you’re full and had enough to eat before and after the okonomi experience. My husband can’t help but feel as if it’s part of their sales tactic. The sushi was good, but when you enter New York City territory where we have such immaculate omakase it’s hard to justify the value of this place. It didnt had wow factor the way Yoshino, Noz and even Nakazawa had on us. For the price their, you don’t get mantis shrimp or any sort of shrimp, you don’t get chutoro or even otoro with the $450omakase. But instead they include it in their “second part” of the dinner course as your ala carte even though you’re already paying very high top dollar for the omakase. Otoro was $50 for one piece, uni $60 for one piece. So do what you will with that info. For $450 price tag we paid already I feel like it should already be included. We didn’t leave full, and even the icecream of the dessert portion were tiny bite size. I can totally see why they don’t allow photos here. Overall i wouldn’t return nor recommend it- my husband & I felt like it was a rip off. At this price point you’re better off going to Masa.

The atmosphere and service are very good, there is no doubt about that, but ultimately people come to restaurant for food. The dishes are creative in a way for sure but personally I feel you don’t get enough of the premium ingredient you would expect. We’ve been to our fair share of high end omakase experiences in NYC and around the world, but cannot imagine a $450 omakase menu doesn’t even include o-toro and it only lasts an hour. The amount of food you get from the omakase is so tiny that I feel I’m not even half full. The length of the add on list is much longer than the omakase itself, with an average of $30 a piece. The entire experience feels like I’m paying the omakase just for an appetizer, if you want to get a decent amount of food, be prepared to spend at least another 200. I had a full lunch and low expectation and yet still they’ve managed to disappoint me. If you don’t care about money at all, feel free to go, should be a good experience. Otherwise would recommend you to think twice. You would be much better off at the like of Sushi Ichimura and other high end sushi places.

Very good sushi restaurant! Japan top quality! Taste fantastic. Highly recommended

Spectacular and a several levels above anything offered in New York City today. Chef Nakazawa is known for his unique style, incorporating many different flavors, vinegars, and unique signature dishes. He has perfected fermentation and aging to create otsumami and nigiri that are legendary even in Tokyo, while the space here is also another level in terms on design and aesthetics. The best of the best 🍣

It was definitely an unforgettable evening. All six of us, including myself, agreed that it was a best experience. The food, the atmosphere, hospitality, commitment, the service, Taishio, their experience and topics were all excellent. I was truly impressed with the experience of receiving such excellent service. This is the best sushi restaurant in the world, literally Taisho's masterpiece in spreading real Sushi in the US. I really appreciate it. Highly recommended.

Very disappointing and offensive experience; we paid 3000usd for 4 for an apprentice sushi chef, as Chef Keiji Nakazawa only took care of a Japanese couple and did not say a word and did not prepare one sushi to the other guests. Shameful and show no respect. We recommend the other sushi places in New York like Ichimura, Noz, Amane but avoid the rudeness and robbery of chef Nakazawa

One of the best or should I say the best experience I have had from NYC to Tokoyo. The chef is truly a master. The creativity was out of this world. The sake pairing with the food and the knowledge that was told to us before every dish and every glass of sake was a learning experience. I had many things I had never eaten. Aged watermellon, large needle fish and many others. The menu, the setting and the staff was spectacular. Thank you for a memorable evening. Well worth it.

Visited Sushi Sho tonight and had what was probably the best meal of my life. The other guests who had reserved the 8pm slot had their flight cancelled, which meant that my dining partner and I had a private omakase prepared by Nakazawa-san and his team. This is unlike any other omakase, and any other sushi, i've had in North America. Every element of the guest experience was incredible. I discovered new fish and preparations that have given me an even deeper appreciation of the art of this craft. Eat here. I will be back.
