Treated myself to an omakase new after work last night and it was great! For $68 I got an appetizer, 9 piece nigiri, a hand roll and a dessert. I also opted in $10 for an optional wagyu tasting. The sushi chef adhered to my dietary restrictions so there were some items I didn't get that are usually offered. The sushi chef was friendly and each bite was expertly crafted and we were told where each dish came from. It's right downstairs from work so I'll be back!
High presentation, but disappointing fish quality and texture We visited during Restaurant Week and opted for the $68 Omakase (I got the 5-handroll set, and my friend had the 9-piece). First impressions were great--the presentation was definitely on point. At first, I thought the plastic-wrapped seaweed was a clever way to keep the nori crisp. However, unwrapping it at the table ended up giving off more of a pre-packaged Japanese convenience store vibe than a high-end omakase experience. The biggest issue was the fish itself. Roughly 80% of what we were served lacked flavor and had a uniform "mushy/melt-in-your-mouth" texture. While some soft texture is expected with certain cuts, every single roll felt like it had been previously frozen to the point of losing its distinct flavor and structural integrity. You could catch faint hints of what they were going for, but everything was far too muted. As for dessert, the Matcha Tiramisu was a highlight, but the Yuzu Cheesecake fell flat--there was zero yuzu flavor, and the candied sprinkles felt out of place for an omakase meal. I also woke up the next morning with intense dry mouth, which usually points to heavy sodium or heavy-handed seasoning--a strange touch for fresh sushi. Service was prompt and attentive, but given the high ratings, the food was a major disappointment. It's possible we just came on an off night, or that the Restaurant Week prefix menu uses lower-tier ingredients, but I expected much better quality.
Went on a 2nd date here with a gorgeous human and the 12 course flight is what we ordered. It was absolutely 10/10 from setting up a reservation, to the explanation of the food, to the drinks paired with the meal. Bit on the price side but worth it and yes you will get full so don't think those tiny pieces won't fill you. If you're in the area please I've these guys a try
Overall: 5 stars Haven't been to an Omakase in a while and did extensive research before landing at Shogun for the balance of experimental flavors and budget. Was very thrilled that this menu turned out exactly that and eats very well with very skilled fish cutting and presentation techniques. Oyster - intriguing appetizer that combines sweet and salty with fruit on top of ikura and oyster; its a colorful and fun dish that I think could benefit from a strong flavor bomb of acidity or spice. Madai - beautiful cut of sea bream that's nicely scored to look like a mermaid; the togarashi soy seasoning is a flavorful way to season this firm white fish lightly. Shima Aji - the striped jack here is glistening with those delicate white lines; the cross hatch knife work paired with soy creates such a beautiful art for the fish. I love the large dose of yuzu kosho pairing, which gave a very strong saline acidity flavor bomb. Kanpachi - this style of cross hatching is one I have not seen for sushi before and it works well where the soy fills the cuts to create beautiful hashes; the pickled wasabi is abundant here to season, giving a very strong spicy acidic salty flavor bomb. Scallop - paired with shiso and lemon for different profiles of acidity, this combination works well for the lusciously sweet scallop. Cuttlefish - might be the best iteration of squid I've had at a sushi restaurant; the knifework plus torching creates an immaculate look that translates into delicious texture. Salmon - this cut of salmon served ahi style lost its fresh delicate taste, but the abundance of truffle helps pack an exquisite flavor profile. Sablefish - impressed by this choice that capitalizes on the recent trend of chili crunch while also giving the versatile sablefish a new profile beyond miso. Otoro - Beautiful piece that beautifully summarizes the omakase scene of NYC; theres nothing more indulgent and delicious than ultra fatty bluefin tuna belly topped with caviar and gold. Eel Handroll - I like that they experimentally went for something beyond just eel. The cutting is uniquely thick, and the otoro adds some extra indulgence. However, this is fat on fat so it may be a bit excessive without relief beyond the rice. Uni Handroll - Flowing handroll that is generously filled with sea urchin. While the urchin is not bright orange, the flavor is quite reasonable with not metalicness. Spicy Tuna Monaka - Fun redesign of spicy tuna tartare in the form of an amuse. The flavors are classic and works well; I think it may work better as a first bite though. Toro Handroll - Very rich and filling to end the meal. I would've personally liked a better balance of those radish so the palette is more diverse, but eats well nevertheless. Wagyu Tasting Supplement - You cannot miss this on the menu, a $10 wagyu tasting promo with some of the most luxorious pairings possible. Truffle adds a balanced earthiness, the ikura adds a delicious salinity, and the uni doubles down on the creaminess. Sake Sorbet Dessert - sweet, flavorful refreshing way to end an omakase as a palette cleanser.

My friend and I tried out Shogun Omakase during Restaurant Week. We had a choice of appetizer, main, and dessert. We both ordered the Kumamoto oyster, I had the handroll set with matcha tiramisu, and she had the omakase set with yuzu cheesecake. The Oyster was delicious! It had a perfect combination of sweet, salty, and creamy, topped with citrus from the lemon slice. Definitely a lovely flavor bomb. I could eat a dozen of these. The Handroll Set came with 5 handrolls and a monaka. These were decently sized as it took around 3 bites per roll. But if you want variety, then I would go for the omakase set, as you get 9 nigiri and a monaka. The Monaka came with spicy toro, ikura, furikake, avocado on a rice cracker. I do agree with another review that it would work better as a first bite. The tiramisu was not too sweet and did not feel heavy, Good matcha flavor. The Yuzu cheesecake is more similar in texture to American cheesecake as opposed to the light Japanese style, but it had good yuzu flavor. Our chef was very friendly and sociable. He took the time to get to know his customers, as opposed to just presenting the dishes. Restaurant was quite spacious, and there are 2 unisex bathrooms in the back.
Great omakase experience in midtown east, nigiris were very fresh with lot of flavor by the chefs touch, staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was casual and classy, you can get both table and bar seatings, def preferred the bar seating experience. We also celebrated birthdays and staff gave very nice birthday treat and present that was super nice, great affordable option and wonderful experience.
When in NYC, I have to get omakase at least once. I got the $88 omakase and it comes with 10pc nigiri, one appetizer, one monaka, one fatty tuna handroll, and one dessert. This was pretty affordable for most omakases as you get a variety to try as it will make you full. I thought the nigiri was good, but nothing too exceptional. My favorites were the cuttlefish, toro with caviar, and uni handroll. The spicy tuna on top of the rice cracker was unique. The oyster for appetizer was topped with ikura and yuzu foam. I thought there was too much foam as it over powered the other flavors. The matcha tirimisu was great. Overall, I wasn't too mind-blown here but I think this is good for omakase beginners
Great atmosphere and attentive staff. Food was top quality. Would come back often just for the great quality of the fish.
Amazing! Amazing dishes, top quality ingredients! We all had the 9 nigiri menu and every single one was an explosion of taste. Close to Times Square, Bryant Park and the Chrysler building
This was one of those bucket list dining experiences you dream about as a foodie. Shogun Omakase knocked it out of the park! The best way to describe it is umami all the way around. When I first heard about omakase dining years ago, I couldn't really picture it. After this experience, I completely understand what it's all about. For anyone who hasn't heard of it, it's a curated tasting of the chef's best fish, meats and ingredients of the day in a high end Japanese style presentation. No menu, no choices, just trust in the chef's skill and creativity. And Shogun had it perfected from start to finish. I was never much of a sake fan in the past, but that completely changed this evening. The quality and presentation were on another level, and the way they kept it cold without ice diluting it was simply awesome. As someone who enjoys really good bourbon, I can say this sake was right up there with the best of the best. Then came the 14 course omakase set with a wagyu tasting add on that completely blew us away. Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavor. Foie gras toppings, caviar pairings, sushi that melted in your mouth, and A5 wagyu that was pure perfection. You wouldn't know Shogun was there if you were walking by it on the street. Simple and unpretentious from the outside, full of life and energy inside. From the first bite to the last, this was an experience to remember. For anyone who loves food and foodie experiences, this is something you need to do at least once.
I definitely recommend this place for lunch or dinner. The service was good, and everything tasted very fresh and delicious. Good vibes.
Found this place on Yelp for a quick lunch. There was only 1 other party when I walked in, so I was a little skeptical. The staff were friendly and came up to my table quickly. I had a omakase lunch with a light bodied sake. Everything was fresh and the chef was friendly and interacted with me. The matcha desert was probably my favorite. it was light and fulfilling.
I was craving for omakase and I've been wanting to try this spot since it's near Grand Central Terminal. I decided to order the shogun handroll experience instead since this was new. I ordered handroll B set for $58. It came with an appetizer, I got the lobster garlic butter soup, 5 handrolls (king salmon, baby yellowtail, eel foie gras, toro, and snow crab), and their homemade tiramisu for dessert. Nice ambiance, friendly and accommodating staff, and great service. Everything was very good and filling, the sushi was also fresh. My favorite handrolls were the king salmon and eel foie gras. My friend ordered handroll A set for $48 and this one comes with 4 handrolls. Her favorite was also the king salmon. I would definitely come back and try their omakase, looks very affordable and delicious.
In honor of my 1300th review, here is my long overdue review for Shogun Omakase. Wanting to take advantage of all the amazing omakase offering in NYC during our visit last Christmas, Shogun Omakase came up in our search. We made very last minute reservations and were seated at the sushi bar. It's hard not to miss the shogun statue right by the front door. For our party of four, we chose three different omakase options - the Husband and I enjoyed the $100 course, the Little Guy enjoyed the $88 course, and the Little Gal enjoyed the $68 course. We also chose the $10 A5 Wagyu Tasting Plate Add-On for each. $68 - 12 course includes 1 appetizer, 9 nigiris, 1 monaka, 1 dessert $88 - 15 course set includes 1 appetizer, 10 nigiris, 1 monaka, 1 hand roll, 1 dessert $100 - 15 course set includes 2 appetizers, 11 nigiris, 1 monaka, 1 dessert From start to finish, the food was presented beautifully and the quality of the fish was amazing. Sitting at the sushi bar, I enjoyed getting each item one at a time as opposed to it all being presented on a platter. We enjoyed every bite of our dinner and would definitely return again. Here is what our $100 course included: * Kumamoto Oyster with Ikura, Pickled Cucumber, and Yuzu Foam * Snow Crab with Garlic Butter Broth * Sea Bream * Striped Jack with Yuzu Pepper * Kanpachi with Truffle * Hokkaido Scallop * Cuttlefish with Yuzu Miso * King Salmon with Cheese and Butter * Toro with Truffle * Sablefish * Bluefin Toro with Caviar and Gold Leaf * Hokkaido Uni * Unagi with Foie Gras * Monaka with Bonito Flakes, Avocado and Spicy Toro * A5 Wagyu Tasting Plate Add-On * Dessert - Tiramisu * Anniversary dessert We think about this dinner often. The price point and quality of fish cannot be beat. The service was good and our sushi chef made an effort to have conversations with us despite being quite busy. read more

The BEST Omakase Experience! Whether you live in New York or are just visiting, this spot is an absolute must-try. We ordered the 12-piece omakase and every single bite was incredible and the fish was very high-quality. The service was truly exceptional. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive. They explained each piece, kept our water glasses full, and made sure we were comfortable and taken care of throughout the entire meal. I would honestly return just for the service alone. This was such a special dinner. It was the best restaurant we tried in New York and easily one of the best dining experiences I've ever had!! I'm already looking forward to coming back the next time I'm in New York. Wishing this place continued success! read more

very good and fresh Omakase. We did the 15 piece serving which was $100. Not bad. One or two pieces I could've done without such as the squid or the crab claws in the broth, but some excellent pieces as well. Service was excellent, and the sake was fabulous. read more
This was the Omakase on the Go -- $68 for 2 apps, 8 pieces of nigiri, and a chef's choice roll. With tip delivered, $90. Apps: buttery crab claws and a tuna/salmon sashimi. The main box: tuna avocado roll, spicy tuna on rice, grilled eel on rice, plus 8 nigiri. Fresh fish, nice-sized pieces, beautifully packaged. But... two squid, two hamachi, no toro -- at this price? Even one piece of toro would've made it feel premium. And that spicy tuna over rice felt like filler. Verdict: very good, but not elite. Shogun Omakase gets a B+. Want to see the full breakdown? Hit The Raw Report on TikTok -- I show the box, grade it, and tell you exactly why it scored what it did. read more

We walked by this place tonight and decided to just try it. It was an amazing deal ($68 for a 12 course sushi omakase and an additional $10 for the wagyu sampler). We started with a delicious oyster appetizer, 4 pieces of light nigiri, 4 pieces of delicious richer fish (I loved the king salmon), a very tasty 2 course set of a rice cake and also eel over rice, and a finisher of tiramisu. We chose to get the wagyu set and they served it 3 different ways. The place was still about half full an hour before closing, with groups sitting at the bar and chatting with the sushi chefs. I would highly recommend! read more

Hi Natalie, thank you for your kind review. We are so happy to hear…
5/5 for food, service, and ambiance. I've dined at Shogun Omakase twice now, and both experiences were exceptional. The service is attentive without being intrusive, and the quality of the food has been consistently outstanding. They offer several omakase sets to choose from--I went with Set B (19 courses) with the A5 tasting plate for $150. For the variety, quality, and presentation of each dish, I found it to be well worth the price on both visits. The appetizers were thoughtfully prepared. Each piece of nigiri was really fresh. The course ended with Matcha Tiramisu, which was really really good. Highly recommend the chef counter option if you go. read more

My second time here, we had the 15 piece Omakase with 2 special appetizers and it was amazing. Each fish serving was tasty and delicious. Our sushi Chef RuRu was attentive and personable. We really enjoyed the calm modern ambiance. Great place to have a delicious sushi dinner after a stressful day. read more
This is my second time coming here, and it's just as good as the first. Their specialty is torching their fish, as it gives that Smokey flavor. Definitely would recommend someone who want to enjoy sushi but are not too keen on raw (which is far and few between). Still though the quality of the fish was great and for their first year anniversary they offered a $10 upgrade for A5 wagyu--a cool take on meat with fruit. Definitely pricey as all omakase is, but definitely unique experience. The chefs are fun to talk to as well! read more

Hi Sharon, thank you for your kind review. We are so happy to hear…
Top tier service and sushi experience by Chef Ryan Huang. Perfect size and texture for the shari, I like it a bit sweeter personal preference, but it was premium rice cooked most correctly so no complaints. Will be back for dinner. Upmost fancy lunch and yum! read more

NYC's Most Beautiful Omakase -- and yes, it tastes just as stunning as it looks. Every course is a masterpiece of flavor and presentation -- from delicate slices of premium fish to perfectly balanced bites that melt in your mouth. One of the most refined sushi experiences in the city. 14 Course + Wagyu Tasting Add-on 1 App | 10 Nigiris | 1 Monaka | 1 Handroll | 1 Dessert Follow me @foodie.elite on IG and TikTok for more. read more
The quaint spot offered great value for a tasty meal. I got the Shogun Omakase which included an appetizer, 9 pieces of nigiri, a hand roll and desert for only $68. Unfortunately, I did not write down what each of the pieces of nigiri were but they were all good read more

Everything is good here. Chef ryan very nice to explain every single nigiri I like this place read more
Good but not *great* compared to some of the other omakase places around, especially for the price. We opted for the $88 omakase course. The Good: - Uni, toro nigiri, unagi + foie gras, and toro handroll was 4 really flavor packed and delicious way to end the meal - Staff and chefs were extremely friendly - Spacious counter area and pretty large interior, very clean The Bad: - Trying to be slightly too "innovative" i.e with cheese on torched salmon, instead of just having the natural freshness of fish shine through - Too many torched dishes Overall, could still be worth trying once! read more

Amazing! What went well? I just had one of the best omakase experiences in NYC at Shogun Omakase -- and for the price, it's an absolute steal! We did the $88 Classic Set (or upgrade to $100 if you want extra courses) and every single piece was outstanding. The nigiri was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, with perfectly seasoned rice that had just the right subtle sweetness and texture. Standouts included the scallop, kampachi, and the wagyu add-on -- they melted in our mouths. The appetizer and hand roll were flavorful and generous. The service was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly without being over-the-top -- our server and the chef made us feel right at home. The ambiance is clean, modern, and zen-like with a great sushi counter vibe -- perfect for a date night or small group, and the location right by Grand Central makes it so convenient. This place is a true hidden gem in Midtown. Fresh ingredients, excellent value, and a wonderful overall experience. We'll definitely be back soon -- highly recommend to anyone craving high-quality sushi without the crazy uptown prices! read more

I was working near Grand Central Station and noticed the set menu display on their window. I went with the 19-course omakase which was $150 which was a deal for that many courses...4 appetizers, 12 pieces of nigiri a savory monaka...spicy tuna on a crisp wafer, an A5 wagyu tasting (for an extra $10) and finished with a dessert. The service was very attentive throughout. I didn't order alcohol and stuck with green tea so I can't vouch for the cocktails. The appetizers that stood out was the snow crab butter soup. It had chunks of crab in the soup. The other app was the oyster topped with salmon roe. I can taste the ocean of the raw oyster, it was so delicious. The nigiri course was fresh and artfully prepared by the master sushi chef. My favorites were the uni from Hokkaido and the ebi with uni on top which was creamy, rich and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. For dessert, I was served tiramisu. While I've read others received a matcha version, mine was a more traditional style in an individual cup. It wasn't especially "Japanese fusion," but it was still a tasty way to end the meal. I went on a Sunday for lunch and wasn't crowded at all. But I heard that weekdays they're pretty booked up. I suggest calling to make reservations. Overall, Shogun Omakase delivered on quality, service and value. I'd definitely return and recommend it to anyone looking for an omakase experience near Grand Central. read more

The restaurant kindly reached out to me about my experience and more than made it up to me! The staff who helped me today was very kind and gracious. I really appreciated that. They apologized on message and in person, and it was clear they truly valued the customer experience. They offered me store credit, the uni this time was outstanding, and they put a more generous amount of uni. I also got the king salmon and the hotate nigiri again, and they were also very delicious and more sizable pieces. The hamachi nigiri was delicious as well. I tried the kani (crab) soup and it was very interesting and tasty! It had garlic and a slightly sweet flavor to the broth, and the crab was so good. Thank you so much for making it up to me! Everything was perfect, and it was a great way to end my trip! I hope to be back here soon. (I wish I took a photo of the food before I left the store, as it was very beautifully presented as well. The uni got shaken up on my walk so I only posted the ones that remained intact). read more
