    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

    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.

    Fast, friendly service. The sushi itself was fine. A piece of the cuttlefish was so chewy, it had to be spit out. The 14 piece omakase was $88 per person.

    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.

    Omakase To Omakase Set On the Go
    Max H.

    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?

    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!

    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.

    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!

    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!

    Ashley C.

    Competing with a lot of other omakase. It is definitely not bad but not incredible. Service was polite and very very attentive but somehow it did not wow me. Not bad but not amazing.

    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.

    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

To drink, I had a Hot Organic Super Matcha Tea for 4.95. It was alright tea, and I wish teas were included in the price point, as otherwise, this place feels pretty traditional. In terms of food, I only ordered from the seasonal menu, so I'm not sure how the rest of the dishes are, but from what I had, I would go back for a light traditional meal. My appetizer was the Dashimaki Tamago/だし巻まき卵たま, or sweet savory omelet with daikon for $6.98. This came with three pieces along with a little dollop of grated radish. The pieces had a light sweetness to them along with a bit of savoriness. They were juicy and a bit bouncy while maintaining some softness. This was standard and good. My main dish was the $19.98 Beef Tan Tan Udon, or ground sirloin beef, spicy broth, baby bok choy, kikurage mushroom, scallions, and sesame seeds. While I have preferred udon from spots like Raku, the udon had a mild chew to it, and they were still good. The broth had a mix of sweetness and spiciness with a nice depth of flavor. The vegetables inside tasted fresh, and the meat added some richness. This was good as well. I wouldn't recommend going out of your way to go here, but the food was good. If you're in the area and looking for no frills Japanese dining in a more comfortable atmosphere at pretty decent Midtown East prices, I would recommend this place.

It's not especially big, so you may have a bit of a wait if you frequent right at lunch or in the evening but whatever amount of time you have to wait it will be well worth it. Service is top tier but you come for the food. They have a varied menu with a lot of options so if you're bringing a buddy that isn't up for Katsu, they'll have plenty to choose from. The Katsu is the star and I think what sets this place apart is that they offer Berkshire pork katsu as an option. Arguably some of the best pork, it's great to have the option if you're looking to heighten the experience. I love their pork katsu and go nuts over the chicken katsu curry. It's super crispy, slightly greasy but never off-putting. And it's served with the most delicate and delicious cabbage slaw. I could eat a mountain of this it's so good. Highly recommended.

I'd have to say...the tonkatsu was quite good....not quite as sublime as my favorite tonkatsu place in Tokyo...but still, very, very good. The dish also came with a bowl of miso soup (good, and not overly salty) and a bowl of white rice, which I considered the most disappointing part of the meal. The rice seemed a bit dried out...not moist.... All in all, an excellent meal. I'd definitely come back.

As you step into the restaurant, you immediately feel a sense of formality and strictness. It's also very quiet in the restaurant, and friendly to solo diners, adding on more to the Japan-esque feel.

The tuna from the bone is the most famous dish here, but I was not able to get it as they sell out very fast. But I tried the sashimi and it was high quality -- just that it was not enough food for me. But that makes it more in line with portions back in Japan. They have an extensive sake list and they also have the casual cocktail options like lemon drops you would find in Tokyo. The atmosphere really transports you straight into Japan if that is something you are looking for. Expect to pay a premium for small-ish portions, but at the same time very well-made and authentic food.
