Came here with some friends for an early dinner. The sandwich board out front tells you everything: $49 for 14 courses, or $69 for 15 courses plus unlimited drinks, both in a 75-minute seating. The $49 gets you 12 nigiri, a hand roll, and miso soup. At $49 in New York, I expected some compromises. There weren't any. The fish was fresh, the rice was well seasoned, and the pacing never felt like an assembly line despite the time limit. The lineup moved from lighter white fish through lean tuna, chutoro topped with caviar, and a couple of torched pieces before finishing rich. Highlights were the torched shrimp with a seared slice of foie gras on top, the seared toro with uni, and a glossy piece of eel to close out the nigiri. The negitoro hand roll was a solid finish. Nothing felt like filler, and nothing felt like a $49 omakase. You're getting caviar, uni, and foie gras at a price point where most places hand you salmon three different ways and call it a progression. Brooklyn has plenty of sub-$100 omakase, including Sushi Katsuei just up the hill. Kimyo competes with most of them for less money. One note: everyone in your party has to order the same menu. Would definitely come back. read more

Besides a hiccup in my reservation, the rest of the night was a night to remember. My group had come in with 3 although we originally reserved for a group of 4. There is a strict policy in place as the lady working that night made it very apparent and was quite flustered in trying to change things for our group. We had to pay for the absent member of our group but $49 for a 14 course is unheard of. It is my first omakase experience, so from observation it's a different dining experience in which it's very particular and you are served with the specific amount of people in the room and the chefs prepare accordingly. There is no getting seated earlier so keep that in mind. My mouth has never met art like this. From gold drizzled bites to the foie gras, there was definitely a battle of the best between each piece we were served. The chefs do a wonderful job of preparing each dish and I've never had sushi that melts the way these did. And for $49? That's crazy. read more

BEWARE I explained to the host that I wanted to move my reservation to the next day. He refused. He said he could not undo my cancellation even though the reservation was made within the hour and it was obviously a mistake. I now have to pay a cancellation fee. This upsets me as it was an honest mistake. Looking back I think it was a blessing because it appears this place is actually Koi Omakase which was closed down by the NYC dept of health/safety food violations. It appears they just renamed/rebranded. Hopefully this is not the case. see article below https://patch.com/new-york/new-york-city/nyc-restaurants-ordered-closed-febuary-21-28 read more

My mind is blown. My 2nd lifetime omakase. I always had an aversion for raw food. But yolo so I tried bc my date loves it. Well I'm a changed woman. Every bite was delish. We opted for &69 unlimited sake combo. The best part was when he sprayed gold dust on the before then in the air! Party! The Chef could have been more friendly but he was a master. I'll definitely come back. read more

We arrived about 15 minutes late but they were so welcoming and accommodating. I believe our dining time is limited to an hour, which our late arrival shortened it for us, but it was still a good pace and we actually appreciated receiving the first few pieces rather quickly. Every single bite was so delicious and their ginger may be one of the best I've tried so far! I've been to many omakase spots but this was the first time I asked for more ginger. read more

Kimyo offers an amazing 14 course omakase and for such a deal at $49! It was easy to get a reservation, which is definitely recommended. Inside the ambiance is nice and only offers seating at the sushi bar for omakase. Service was great and our sushi chef Viego made the most perfect bites! The flavors combinations were delicious and the fish was so fresh and tender! Some combinations of flavors included tuna with caviar, shrimp with foie gras, waygu with uni and salmon with truffle! The only course I didn't care for was the otoro hand roll at the end but everything else was amazing. We left satisfied for the amount of food. I will definitely be back and it is conveniently located near Barclay center making it a great dinner before a show! read more

I went during their BOGO special and brought a friend with me. The service was well paced, we were out in less than an hour. The interior was very dark but it kept a minimalistic aesthetic. The actual fish was fresh and thoroughly enjoyed it. Although I'm not usually a fan of eel because of its micro bones, this eel was soft and succulent and full of flavor. The overall experience was great and I'd def recommend it for hangouts or date nights. read more

I would definitely recommend Kimyo. The quality of fish is good and so fresh. The nigiri just melts in your mouth and the price point is something you cannot beat. I was visiting New York for 6 days and I ate here twice. This isn't a super fancy spot, it's more so if you need a quick fix. I'm definitely coming back when I'm in town again read more

price - $69 per person (no including all you can drink) food - 5/5 service - 5/5 ambiance - 5/5 for $69, you get a total of 15 courses without all you can drink sake but you can add an extra $20 for all you can drink sake. their sushi courses were all so wonderfully pieced together, each of them looked like an artwork! I also spent an extra $22 for their signature koi bomb and I do NOT regret this add on!!! the flavors literally all mixed together super duper well and the yumminess literally all bursted into my mouth!!! I neeedddd to go back and have this again! the servers were super nice and the ambiance was wonderfully set out! the interior was calming and romantic as well! definitely check this place out if you are ever in the area! its super affordable with such great quality fish! thank you Kimyo omakase for the on the house dessert to celebrate my anniversary as well!!! read more

Been here twice and the first time was a lil better but still a great experience! From fave to least, based on texture and taste: 1. Salmon w foie gras 2. Torched black cod 3. Chutoro 4. Toro hand roll 5. Torched black snapper w yuzu radish 6. Blue fin tuna with wasabi 7. Sea bass with chilli garlic 8. Yuzu snapper 9. Salmon roe with uni 10. Unagi 11. Amberjack 12. Sea scallop The miso soup was okay, very basic. I also ordered the otoro separately and it was my second fave bite. Not sure if I just missed it but I didn't see any soy sauce or wasabi offered on the side. The chef would explain each piece before serving it but it was very difficult to hear. I see a lot of other reviews with the same issue. read more

So KIMYO Omakase (formerly Koi) has officially become our spot. We've gone about 5 or 6 times now, and every single visit has been a blast. The sushi chefs are kind and easy to talk to, the staff is warm and welcoming, and the fish is ridiculously fresh. Every piece that hits the plate feels like a little celebration. great balance of rice, seasoning, and toppings, nothing throwaway or boring. The room is dark, cozy, and a little chic, so you get that "night out" feel while still being super comfortable. And for what you get? The price is honestly hard to beat in the city. You walk out feeling full, happy, and like you got serious value for your money. This is the place I recommend when friends ask for omakase recs now. read more

I came here when they were doing the 2 for 1 BOGO omakase deal, which for the price is really solid. I'd give this spot 5 stars for BOGO, and probably only 4 if it was at the normal price. They were also super accommodating when adding an odd number of people to the reservation and only charging half price for them. I was impressed that even at ~$35/pp, they still provided what feels like their full menu - fatty tuna, scallop, uni, etc. I was expecting them to cut back on some of these pieces for a lunch BOGO, but was pleasantly surprised when they kept them in. Overall the ambiance was quite standard as well. I don't know if I'd come back on a normal deal, but for BOGO I think it's pretty unbeatable. read more

Kimyo Omakase - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I revisited this spot when they rebranded to Kimyo and my exp fell flat. Firstly, the outside is a bit confusing bc they kept the original business name. The only distinction was the Kimyo sign on the floor. Otherwise, everything else is the same. The biggest downside of everything was that a lot of the pieces in the course were CHEWY. I'm not sure why - maybe the quality isn't what it used to be or the fish had been a few days, but that tainted my exp this time around. However, the chef was great and the staff were attentive. While it's a good deal, I probably wouldn't come back due to the quality of the pieces. read more

This is my second time here and I'm pleasantly surprised again! Last time I came for the grand opening bogo deal and now they have an anniversary bogo deal until September 1st. There's some slight differences: last time there was a dessert course and also unlimited sake. I wasn't sure about coming again because despite the great price point, I definitely had better quality omakase elsewhere. But alas, I couldn't resist a good deal especially for my birthday. And I'm so glad I came again! We got last minute reservations for 9pm on a Sunday. If you have a reservation for 3 people, the third person has half off. The ambiance is really nice, it's very casual. It doesn't feel stuffy, it feels like you can chat comfortably and just have a good time. I would say it's a pretty casual omakase experience not a fine dining type of experience. The sushi pieces were still smaller than other places but I feel like it was a good amount of food. I left feeling quite stuffed but granted I didn't arrive hungry. There was one piece that was a little fishy for me but overall, the pieces were quite good. I enjoyed the salmon with the foie gras and the sweet shrimp with uni. Also, they were so sweet with the birthday scoop of ice cream. Nothing fancy but it feels nice to be celebrated. They sang happy birthday and lit a candle on a scoop of matcha ice cream. Overall: I had a great second time. I would definitely recommend coming to check out the bogo deal before it ends. It's really unbeatable for the price point. read more

Instagram : @yeapeats I originally had Koi Sushi saved on my NYC list, but later realized they recently rebranded to Kimyo Omakase. Glad I still ended up going because this was a great value omakase experience. For $69, you get 15 courses total (12 nigiri, 1 handroll, miso soup, and dessert) plus all-you-can-drink sake or beer, which honestly feels like a steal in NYC. The quality of the fish was surprisingly good for the price, especially the o-toro caviar nigiri, which was one of my favorites of the night. The only downside was the drink situation at the beginning. The server asked if we wanted tap water, sparkling water, or hot tea. Since hot tea is pretty standard at sushi restaurants, we chose tea without thinking much about it, but later found out they charged $4.50 per person and never mentioned there would be an extra charge. Not a huge deal, but it would've been nice if they were upfront about it. Overall though, I'd still say it's very worth it for the price and would recommend it if you're looking for an affordable omakase spot in NYC. read more

I didn't have high expectations for this place as I tried it before when it was Koi Omakase, but my friend won a giveaway so I was willing to give it a second chance. Just to note, they have not changed their sign from Koi to Kimyo yet, so look for the Koi Omakase sign! Our sushi chef served 4 of us and was quick and kept track of the pieces well since we were at different stages. I am happy to say that Kimyo is much better than Koi. At the prior place, the pieces were a little boring and didn't taste as fresh. Now they serve the pieces with more flavorful toppings, I especially liked the yuzu pepper, chili garlic, and pickled wasabi. The $49 for the 14 course omakase that included 12 pieces nigiri, 1 hand roll, and 1 miso soup, it was well worth it! read more

Ordered: 13-course Omakase (complimentary; regular price ~$69 BOGO deal): 11 nigiri pieces, 1 hand roll, 1 miso soup Aya's take: I love omakase and Koi is offering one of the best deals you can get now! Normally, ~$69 per person but until September 1st, it's ~$69 for 2 people! Thankfully I won a giveaway and was excited to give them a try. If you're looking for fancy omakase with exceptionally high quality fish, this is not the place for you. I would say it's a beginner or more casual omakase experience. Of the 11 nigiri pieces, I really enjoyed the King Salmon Foie Gras, Otoro Caviar, Botan Ebi Uni, Hotate (scallop), and Unagi (eel). The rest were fine but majority of the pieces were white fish so I didn't find them to be exciting or unique. Check them out before September 1st to get the best deal! read more

For the bogo deal this is worth it. I do think they are more geared towards the Americanized palate. A lot of the sushi at times just had too much wasabi and the same goes for too much soy sauce. The fish was ok but I didn't feel like we had knockouts until half way through. The service is fine, they're pretty attentive with drinks. The Toro with caviar was my favorite and that number 6 of the 13 courses, including the miso soup. I was pleasantly surprised with the miso soup. It was prawn based and it was delicious. For other omakases I've had in the past they've just felt more intimate and I've enjoyed it more when they let the fish speak for the dish, instead of overpowering it with wasabi or soy sauce. read more

BOGO omakase so $69 plus tax and tip for two people - can't complain at all. I'd honestly come back for the shrimp miso soup alone. The shrimp flavor was amazing and a great addition to the omakase. Each piece was fresh and my favorite was the mackerel. This is a casual omakase spot where they're trying to get you in and out in an hour and are super efficient with serving you the food. Do not expect a traditional omakase experience, although you really shouldn't for the price point. Great to come with a group of friends as there's tons of seating. read more

Kimyo Omakase - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I went to Koi Omakase with my friends for their BOGO event for $69. We were a party of three, so the third person got half off. I liked the layout of the place. It was set up in a long U-shaped table, which felt more spacious than other omakase spots I've been to. At the very beginning, the chef asked if anyone had allergies or foods they didn't eat. My party didn't, but there was a couple next to us, and the girl said she didn't like eel. The chef swapped out her eel for another handroll instead, which I thought was nice. Make sure to arrive exactly at your appointment time. The pieces were smaller than what I was used to, but the fish was fresh. However, the uni didn't look like it was fresh. Our sushi chef made sure to tell us what each piece was as we ate it, which I appreciated. The staff was attentive, coming around to fill our water whenever they noticed it was close to empty. It was also my friend's birthday, and they gave her a matcha ice cream at the end. We all sang Happy Birthday to her, which was a nice touch. read more

Came here for the bogo deal with a group of 3 at 9pm on a Sunday. We were seated prompted at 9 and the whole experience was about 45 minutes. Since the place was just a single long rectangular counter, it felt very casual. It did not feel stuffy not squished when seated. Although, everyone was close, it was not too loud, so you can have a conversation and hear the chef's description of their courses. There are multiple chefs at their own stations around the table. Ours asked if we had any preferences or whether we were ok with wasabi. Although it was only 13 servings, this was enough to leave your stomach happy. I loved each serving. read more

From now until September 1st, Koi Omakase is doing a BOGO deal and it's so worth it! I came for dinner with one of my girl friends and we had a great time. The interior of the omakase spot is casual, a bit more upbeat/louder, and the bar is a giant U-shape (which was interesting, because I ended up sitting across from people I knew and it felt like I was watching them or something LOL). Service here is nice, attentive to water, and quick. Note, that because it is a BOGO omakase and you are reserved for 1-hr seatings, they do go by a bit fast. This 13-course omakase features your classics, such as toro, unagi, and scallop, but some of my unique favorites were their miso with shrimp, sea bass with chili oil, and salmon with foie gras and truffle salt. All of their cuts were pretty good, the portions left me feeling full, and the taste was great for the price you're paying. Would highly recommend to check this spot out before their BOGO deal ends! read more

Dropped by for their bogo deal 2 for $69 and honestly it was only worth the visit because of the deal. Fish was not the freshest and rice was heavily seasoned causing it to fall apart. Some pieces were better than others with the memorable ones being salmon topped with foie gras, hamachi, and sawara. Pieces were also on the smaller side. Left feeling hungry still. read more

Decided to try this place after seeing their BOGO deal for $69 and left disappointed. The price is amazing, $34.50 for 11 pieces, a handroll and a miso soup. However, the quality, taste and portions left me unsatisfied. The pieces were very small, understandable for the price, but the fish was not the freshest. The piece I liked the most was the scallop. As for the customer service, minimal chef to customer interaction. If you want a good deal, yeah this is for you. The deal is available until September 1st 2025. If you are looking for good sushi, I would not recommend. read more

Fantastic Omakase and right now from 6/1-9/1 go and take advantage of Koi's BOGO deal. $69 for two to enjoy 13 courses is unheard of in NY. Everything served is fresh and flavorful. Staff is quite attentive and it's simply a great inexpensive experience. read more

First of all, I loved the ambiance as we walked in. It was REALLY spacious, with the big main rectangular table in the middle. However, I never saw an omakase place not fully seated so I thought that was interesting. For only $69 in 75min seating, you can get 18-courses which includes 15 nigiri, miso soup, temaki hand roll, a matcha ice cream with red bean, and unlimited sake/beer from the limited menu. Service was just okay; we got our miso soup but then literally 2 minutes later they made another round asking if we were done and could take it away. There was still a lot of miso soup left which I was a bit confused about.. you could take a quick look and see that I was not finished. Since it is a lot of courses for only 75 minutes, I feel like things were just rushed and the pieces were not carefully made. Sometimes I had to also ask the chef what the piece was b/c he would speak so quietly/rushed and so I was not able to catch the name of the piece. There's a lot of YUZU pieces!! So if you do not like yuzu, I would not recommend coming here. They also have one piece that has chili oil crisp on it, which was pretty interesting but was too overpowering that we could not taste the fish. None of the pieces "wow'ed" us, which was pretty disappointing as we always have a piece or two that we really like when we go to omakase. Many of the pieces felt like the seasoning was too overpowering or the fish wasn't fresh, which was also disappointing as well. As someone who has been to numerous affordable omakase places in NYC, I would have to rank this place somewhere in the bottom b/c we didn't leave feeling pleased/content about this omakase experience. read more

Visited twice for 2 separate promotions. Most recently came for the bogo summer deal, which came out to around $44 per person for 13 course omakase. The cuts are pretty standard for an omakase in this price range, with the salmon foie gras and ebi uni being our favorites. The sea bass chili was the most unique dish of the night, and the cod was also a runner up. The seating lasts a little less than an hour, and starts on time. read more

I dined here during the $69 Buy one get one free omakase deal. I enjoyed 4/13 of the courses served, so I'd say the quality was pretty mediocre (ex: temperature of the fish is lukewarm/room temperature, some courses even had mushy texture, too much wasabi in some pieces). I get there will be a faster churn than average, which in this city it's already super quick. I timed it: from the time we were seated to the time we took our last bite, it was 37 minutes. They boot people out even earlier than the top of the hour from the start of the reservation. I love a good deal, but in hindsight, it's more worth it to pay a bigger price at a different spot for a more enjoyable omakase experience. read more

Had a reservation Saturday for lunch omakase after we heard about the BOGO deal ($69 for two people). Koi Omakase is a big space and felt a lot more casual than other omakase spots. We came exactly at 2pm but didn't get seated until 2:10 because they were still setting up. As a result, the experience felt very rushed; a lot of times I would have two pieces on my plate. The actual sushi pieces were just okay. The rice was seasoned well but the fish tasted significantly lower quality than usual. I also felt that the pieces were really small. I did, however, like the miso soup they gave us on the side. Our sushi chef was also kind of anti-social and not really welcoming. Overall, the experience felt sub-par. At $35 per person I wasn't completely disappointed but I probably wouldn't pay full price for the same experience. read more

Quality: 7/10 not sure if they are cutting corners because of their BOGO but the pieces were underwhelming and all the fish were lukewarm. The pieces either were either bland or overpowered with wasabi Variety: 7/10 there weren't really standout pieces, just all the typical fish you would see at any omakase. Kind of upset that their miso soup counted as one of the 13 pieces Atmosphere/Cleanliness: 8/10 super large space to fit almost 20 people, but this also took away from the experience. The chefs were working nonstop and had little to no time to engage with you Service: 9/10 they frequently refilled my water, even my ginger without asking, but this place almost felt like a factory with the way they operated Price: $45/person not including tax for the BOGO 13-course special going on right now read more

Great omakase but expensive. The vibes and decor are a little more sake/party bar than upscale, personal omakase. The Salmon Foie Gras and Cod were my favorite pieces.

This place was pretty good. I came for a omakase tasting that I won from their Instagram. It was 13 pieces sushi pieces and one miso soup cup. Everyone was delicious but the unagi and wagyu were my favorite. The experience lasted about an hour ad went by quick. I was satisfied at the end of the meal though not full. After the tasting you can buy additional pieces for $5 each but i opted not to. There were about 10 people per tasting and 2 sushi chefs. This was a super interesting experience. The sushi i tasted are as following: 1. Shima aji 2. Yellow tail 3. Sawara (Spanish mackerel) 4. Sable fish (black cod) 5. Miso soup 6. Suzuki (sea bass) 7. Bluefin tuna 8. Otoro caviar 9. Hotate (sea scallop) 10. Abi and uni (shrimp and sea urchin) 11. Salmon and foie gras (buttery and delicious) 12. A5 wagyu (topped with truffle) 13.

The servers are quite quick to get drinks as well and once seated, the food starts to come.

We thoroughly enjoyed our first omakase experience at Kimyo. It was affordably priced, all the fish was fresh, and we enjoyed the variety of courses. There was only one course that was a HUGE miss for me. The raw shrimp was disgusting. I could not swallow it. I've never had raw shrimp before so it's possible that it is gross anywhere, but I was shocked I was served something so terrible. The rest of the meal was DELICIOUS. We loved the scallops, variety of tuna cuts, toppings, etc. We enjoyed the affordable price point. The service was efficient, but it was lacking friendliness. I wasn't expecting much, but the staff almost felt alloyed by the guests' presence. I loved the ambiance with just one sushi bar and simple decor. The lighting and overall vibe felt like what to expect in an omakase bar. read more
