Want a sishi experience ever? Gotta come here in the heart of Roosevelt Ave. Artisinal sushi with fresh favorites. Together with all the saki you can drink. You will get f!!cked up I recommend it highly.
everything tastes good, amazing service & vibes, fantastic music. you won't regret it! shoutout to sake daddy for helping me up the stairs. i'll be back but more behaved next time (blame it on the unlimited sake).
4.25 stars Omakase was great - they hit you hard to start with some amazing pieces. Then after the 16th pour of sake, you get the standard Omakase Drinks: unlimited sake (one kind) Service: this is where they really shine. Amazing service they picked up dishes quickly and drinks were never empty. Some camp - they are funny, sing karaoke, and know how to have a good time. This is what makes the experience unique. Now there's so many Omakase + AYCE places that do multiple different types of sake, etc., but you don't get the fun party vibe but like you do here. You are paying for food and a show. For the price, it's excellent. Only con is they are very quick - it took an hour for the entire meal + drinks.
Not a traditional omakase but fantastic regardless! The owner knows how to party. It feels less like dinner and more like being swept into a rowdy celebration where sushi is only half the fun. My favorite part was the coconut curry. I had two servings because it was just THAT good. Go for the fish, stay for the vibes, and don't be surprised if you leave with fuzzy memories. -AD
I came here for a birthday celebration as suggested by a family member, and was met with an absolutely fantastic experience--especially considering this was my first omakase-style dinner; I had no idea what to expect, particularly since I heard this wasn't what one would call "traditional omakase" as well. On entry, we made our way down into what was effectively a basement, with a staircase flanked by multiple pieces of well-painted art directly on the walls. Walking inside revealed a pretty cozy room with a seating area next to the sushi counter where you wait before you are called for your reservation, which did not take long in our case. The meal itself was (if I recall correctly) a 15-course affair, which included multiple forms of sushi including Otoro, Scottish Salmon, Scallop, Japanese Squid and Hamachi. It's difficult to think of any one particular dish that was the standout, as they were all quite exceptional--however, I would say I leaned towards the scallop and smoked salmon overall, particularly because of their great combined flavor and texture profiles. Throughout the whole experience, we were treated to some great music in the background (singing along is optional) and sake on the house to go with our dishes--a fantastic addition, as long as you can pace yourself, of course. Overall, this is an excellent place to stop by, especially in the case of special occasions; the layout makes the experience very intimate with fellow patrons and with the chef and staff themselves, making for memorable moments throughout the meal. I definitely can't wait to make my way back here the next time I'm in the area or for the very next occasion. Big thanks to Yammy, alongside the rest of the staff, for the fantastic meal and an even better experience overall!
Heaven exists. And it's in Jackson Heights, inside Sushi On Me. We showed up early. No rush. No attitude. No "wait outside." They brought us straight in, poured sake like we were already family, and set the tone immediately: you're welcome here. Not tolerated. Not managed. Welcomed. The service is unreal, not stiff, not rehearsed, not performative. It's warm, open, confident, and completely locked in. From the jump, Chef Palm runs the room with the calm control of someone who knows exactly how good this experience is, and has nothing to prove. And then there's Sake Boy aka Egg. Pure energy. Pure hospitality. The kind of presence that turns a great meal into a night you won't shut up about. Always pouring, always moving. The sake never stops, and somehow neither does the vibe. The music is loud. The room is small. The energy is intimate in a way that feels rare now, like you didn't book a reservation, you got invited. Shoulder-to-shoulder with strangers, everyone in it together. And the food? I can't name a favorite. I refuse to try. There wasn't a single miss, lull, or forgettable bite. Just relentless execution from start to finish. This is omakase without the bullshit. Luxury without pretension. Chaos with discipline. I cannot recommend this enough. Stop everything you're doing and get here. Do not wait. Do not overthink it. Just go. If heaven has a soundtrack, it's loud. If heaven pours sake before you ask, this is it.
If you're looking for a different take on sushi, head on over to Sushi on Me - where Thai flavors meet sushi. A great place to celebrate birthdays (but be warned: it's more like a party, haha). Sushi on Me is a sushi speakeasy located in the heart of Jackson Heights. They usually have 2 seatings per night and just a fair warning: it's cash only! As I mentioned before, it's like a party so be prepared for loud karaoke vibes, haha!
We couldn't have chosen a more unforgettable Omakase to enjoy with friends. The moment we sat down, the energy was absolutely infectious and the sushi chefs were incredible at making our group feel like VIPS from start to finish. The curated menu leaned more on Tuna, personally not my favorite but it was a big hit with rest of the group. I would love to see a bit more variety with Uni, Amaebi, Sake Toro, and a more Yuzu to brighten up the palette. A little contrast in temperature could've taken things to another level, since most of the dishes were served at room temperature. The Sake was generously flowing, the Music selection was so perfect that we couldn't help but burst into song, wave sparklers, and dance between bites. Not your tradition omakase by any means, but easily one of the most fun and memorable dining experiences I've ever had.
The vibes here are amazing and it was definitely a fun night overall, but I have to give it three stars due to the food quality. I came in knowing this wouldn't be a traditional omakase, which I was totally fine with, but the quality of the fish fell below what I would expect at an omakase-level experience. One of my pieces even had small bones in it (which is a fear of mine!) and made me feel uneasy about the rest of the sushi that night. The spot is cash only and reservations are easy to make online. They text you in advance to confirm your reservation, which is helpful. The entrance is a bit hidden, but once inside, the space has great speakeasy-style vibes. The servers are fun and friendly, and they do a great job keeping the energy up. Unlimited sake is included, which is a nice touch. The presentation of the dishes is beautiful, and the Thai influence comes through clearly in the flavors. Unfortunately, while creative, none of the pieces stood out in terms of freshness or quality for me... and the small bones really dampened the experience. That said, I think it's still a fun place to celebrate with friends if you're going for the atmosphere and social experience. I hope my experience was just an off night, and I do wish them all the best.
So this is a hole in the wall basement venue that looks like you're walking into a crime scene from an 80's movie about the city... on the outside. Inside is a small dark space with a few tables to wait at before you get seated at the bar with the up to 11 other customers. They have seatings every 1.5 hours. It's an omakase, so you don't know what you're going to get, but it's 15 courses and unlimited, decent sake... they also have wine if that's your preference. The can accommodate for shellfish allergies.. You really come here for the experience. The fish is good, some of it great, and couple of pieces even fantastic... but for the price, it's not what you'd expect of the fish... but again, it's the experience that you're paying for... and that is well worth it. This not a place to bring the kids or anybody conservative... language is explicit, but fun! If you want a more calm experience come for the earlier seating, the later the seating the wilder it gets... Hydrate before you get here, because you will consume plenty of sake... Bring friends for celebrations here. It's a party.
My friend brought me here to try this omakase. It's very different from the usual style,the Thai chef is incredibly funny, and the whole meal was filled with laughter. The food themselves are fairly standard, but the atmosphere is wonderful. The team took great care of us. If you're looking for a fun, happy experience, this is the place to come.
Excellent sushi! But beyond sushi, there is unlimited sake. The chefs are so entertaining. It is so much fun. It is a must try experience if you enjoy sushi and you're in nyc. Chefs constantly refill your sake glass. Great music, friendly environment. You can show up alone and start making friends with everybody else by the end of the night.
I would say this was an amazing sushi spot but the truth is the experience at Sushi on Me is SO much more than sushi. It's the music. The food. The vibes. The energy. The staff. The ambiance. Just go. Here's the breakdown: Vibes - the space itself is small and cozy. 12 seat sushi bar in a small underground den that you wouldn't know was there unless looking for it. Neon signs and exposed brick create a very cool vibe, not to mention a retro piano that will inevitably make its way into the night. Sushi - it's 15 course omakase and it's all stellar. The first 4-5 courses are culinary creations -- all kinds of deconstructed and reconstructed sushi bites with a wide array of flavor profiles and gastronomical techniques. Very awesome. All the fish is very fresh, and while there's so much going on around you, the fish itself is not to be overshadowed. People - the team here maybe is what takes the cake. A few guys from Thailand with amazing energy, infectious smiles and a clear passion for what they're doing. It's rare to find something like this - a team that serves you with genuine kindness and warmth. They are SO awesome. Shout out to woody and Mikey and sake boy!!! Music - well curated playlists are a big part of the experience here. Great music spanning a variety of genres. Really makes the night a lot of fun. Sake - all you can drink, so come thirsty. (And it's not dirt cheap sake that you might find at other lesser all you can drinks). Pro tip - come on a weekend and book the 9:30 seating. It's their final seating and so you don't get kicked out right after your 90 minutes as you do with the 3 earlier seatings. Because it's the last seating, it turns into a fun party after. Highly recommend. Love this place and the people and will be back soon!!
The guys working were awesome, the vibes were immaculate, and the food was bomb. My sake was filled at all times and the presentation and taste of the food was amazing. Would 100% recommend this and will be coming back with my guests from out of town to show them a unique nyc experience. That being said, it felt very rushed. So many courses (yum!) but so little time (1 hour). Wish we could spend more time in there for the price we're paying but other than that, love love love this place !! Cash only read more

Excellent food, presentation, service, incredible energy and vibes! It was so much fun! One of the best dining experiences I've had. Pro tip: they are downstairs like a hidden speakeasy. We almost couldn't find them lol but glad we did and they also recommended Jia bar close by - amazing spot for drinks! read more

This was my second time at Sushi On Me, and it still blows me away. If you want the most fun you can possibly have in an hour, this is the spot. The team here is absolutely fun because they make the experience so fun and welcoming. They did a fantastic job celebrating my partner's birthday. The unlimited sake is no joke! They keep it flowing, which added to the party atmosphere. The food is absolutely delicious. The owner is the head chef. The Omakase Set has Thai influence which made the experience so unique. They mentioned that they change the menu from time to time. This is hands down the best spot in Jackson Heights to host a birthday party or a lively group dinner. read more

A young modern take on omakase. The vibes on point, the food was delicious, and the drinks were endless! We had so much fun eating, drinking, and vibing. I recommend this to people that enjoy omakase. The chefs were great and the server kept pouring. Will definitely comeback again read more

GOOD TO NOTE: - Don't attempt to walk in because you will be immediately rejected. - Make a reservation on Resy. [Even if you don't get one right away, keep checking. You might find one just days before.] - They do have a $50 cancellation fee for each reservation - It's a cash only establishment - Only street parking available - best to utilize trains - Unlimited sake - Don't be late! They are very timely. Better to be a bit early - they have tables on the side so you can wait. - Rotate menus on a several months basis. So if you are here from one week to the next, you might be trying the same exact foods. When everyone for a specific time slot arrives, you are moved to the counter seats and that's when the omakase starts. Your first dish is ready and the introduction begins. The food is really delicious. Each course is bursting with unique flavors. The whole omakase session is really a visual (eyes) & sensory (taste buds) experience. I've noticed that since the main chefs are from Thailand, they do incorporate Thai flavors into some courses, which was very unique for an omakase. The best thing about this whole experience is the overall vibe. It's super cool! The staff of this restaurant all try to keep the whole ambience light and fun. The staff are very easy to talk to, make jokes and keep the energy up. They play music so you can jam out while you eat. With the unlimited pour of sake, the whole experience is lit. It's really fun and makes for a memorable times esp if it's a birthday celebration. read more

This was a very fun dining experience! You feel very connected to the staff and even the other guests in the restaurant. There's so much going on during your dinner, just be prepared to be entertained and have a great time! read more
Came here last night and had such a blast. The entrance is a bit tricky since there's no signs, but right before you walk into East 21, there's a set of stairs to the left going downstairs. That's where it is! This isn't your traditional omakase but it truly is such an experience. I spent the entirety of the meal laughing and having such a ball. The fifteen course goes by fast and it truly is unlimited sake, so pace yourself! The servers were also amazing and had such fun energy. If you have visitors coming to NY, I highly recommend this place for great time. read more
I came here with a friend for my birthday and had a blast! When we walked in, we were intrigued by the speakeasy vibe. Everyone was nice and welcoming. I really enjoyed the Southeast Asian flavors. This separated them from the typical omakase places. Everything blended very well together and looked beautiful! While the fish was not the freshest, it was the most entertaining omakase experience ever! My friend and I had a blast. Because it was my birthday, they let me seared the salmon and gave everyone sparklers and sang happy birthday. read more
Wow what a fun, delicious, and totally cool, updated omakase experience. This 12 chair sushi restaurant is located down an unassuming staircase and has major speakeasy vibes. The atmosphere is fun, music pumping, unlimited sake, and impeccable service by chefs and a host that know how to have fun. I came here for my husband's 40th birthday and our first date night after having a baby. It didn't disappoint. The 18 course omakase sushi was not only delicious, it was fun, and beautifully plated. My husband and I enjoyed each course and the unlimited saki. We will for sure be back. Club sushi vibes!! read more
Ok this was fun! I wasn't so sure what to make out of some of the appetizers already prepped in advance on the counter beforehand. I thought for sure perhaps I wouldn't enjoy it as much but I was wrong. I enjoyed all the appetizers, they were all fun, tasty, and innovative all at the same time. While some of the dishes were definitely prepped in advance, much of the sushi was made in front of us and gosh, all of them were deliciously melty. If you go for a special occasion, let them know in advance and they will make a celebratory item just for you. Finally all these guys were fun, I'm pretty sure I will go back and enjoy another "f&cking dinner" as it says on their shirts and is often repeated much during dinner. I can see that may be a turnoff for some but given that this is NYC, I've been desensitized on the use of the word in normal daily conversations. LOL. read more
BEST dining experience I've had in a long time! This was my first omakase and it's gonna be very hard to top. Speakeasy vibes, amazing service, FUN, FUN, FUN! The staff does a great job keeping you entertained from start to finish. The head chef Palm is so nice and personable, and his menu creations taste as good as they look. My favorites were the Scallop sushi with truffle and wasabi & the Salmon belly which warm and spicy They have great theatrics such as Weed smoke & Rosemary bubbles that they immerse onto the dishes. Music is blasting all night and unlimited saki is flowing. Cash only, a little pricey but worth it. Reservations a must read more
WOW!!! what a fuckn great dinner! hands down the best omakase I ever had!!! Seriously anyone that gives a lower than a 5, this is not your vibe. It was hidden, we couldn't find the spot. Had to walk back and forth a couple times the service inside is bad.. but that even works out bc makes you engage in dinner tbh. Unlimited sake is a real thing... you will lose count of how many. They are not kidding about unlimited. Dinner was fulfilling and goes by pretty quick. They played some great tunes and engage with their guests. Can't wait to come back! Highly recommended!!!! read more
The most fun and engaging Omakase you'll ever experience. Talk about fun, raunchy and in your face . One hour experience without having to worry about behavior, matter of fact, the staff wants you to be loud and let loose. I've been to many Omakse around the $100 range but nowhere is this much fun. If you haven't experienced Sushi On Me then shame on you. I applaud the staff there for coming up with a party Omakase concept and I can't wait to be back. In closing, forget your mild mannered Omakase and just let it loose here or at their Brooklyn location. read more

I've been here twice and both times the atmosphere has been fun and exciting. There was never a single dull moment throughout my meal. The chefs made the whole experience as interactive and enjoyable as possible. Be prepared for loads of cheering and endless sake. The chefs infuse a lot of Southeast Asian flavors into each piece. It's a little different from your standard omakase places and might not be the ideal place if you're strictly looking for traditional omakase. But I thoroughly enjoyed my experience because they play around with a lot different flavor profiles and textures. Some pieces are garnished with chili crisps, fried shallots, and they also play around with herb infused smoke, which adds a bit of an aromatic as well as theatrical aspect to it. The amber jack and oyster appetizers were probably my favorite pieces! I was a little sad that they didn't have uni the second time I came, but I actually didn't notice that we didn't have uni until I was looking through old pictures of my previous meal. The meal was enjoyable enough for me to overlook one of my favorite pieces tho. Disclaimer: Restaurant is really easy to miss. If you think you're at the right spot, it's probably not. The restaurant is located to the right of Izakaya Fuku and downstairs, but there's no signage whatsoever pointing you in the right direction. There is a mural of Snoop Dog right next to the entrance so if you find that, you're at the right place. CASH ONLY. read more

This is an overdue review. I was so happy with this place, it was better than I expected. I got treated here on my birthday. The place is super hidden, it's on a busy block, but in the basement with no signs. Even their door was entirely black, so you had no idea what you were walking into. (+) very cool neon lights and interior (+) good music, felt like I was in a club vs a sushi spot (+) free unlimited sake was nice (+) all the omakase pieces were fresh, unique, and meshed together perfectly like a piece of art (-) parking was horrible, try to take the train! Definitely going back! read more
This place is a GEM! The staff was so great and fun! I loved how interactive and lively the meal was. Each course we had was amazing. I highly recommend coming here for the experience and food! This place is also perfect for special occasions. read more

Came here for a friends birthday which I highly recommend bc the vibes here are immaculate! They know how to make it fun and just a good time but I must say the fish here was def not the freshest. If you're looking fwd to high quality fish you might be disappointed. They also offer unlimited sake so that enhances the vibe. read more

Super fun, amazing service, good sushi, great music! If you like all of those please go asap It's like a speakeasy so you go down the stairs and then wait for them to open up. They seat you at the bar. They prepare everything in front of you. All the gimmicks add to the food and isn't only for show. I'll come back again for sure! read more

TLDR: Sushi On Me is not a purist edomae omakase. So if you're looking for that - this is not the place for you. Think Sammy's Romanian Steak and Sushi Dojo had a love child. The nigiri while fusion-ish is tasty and the sake will pour all hour long. Come with an open mind, an empty stomach and prepare yourself for a HBO style profanity-laced hour and you'll have a great time. I was not sure what to expect when I got to Sushi on Me. It's in the basement along this stretch of Jackson Heights, it has a speakeasy dive bar feel to it. While the service is short, it was an hour packed with lots of f-bombs, interesting Thai-ish sushi courses and incredibly energetic hosts. Chef Palm and Yammy (of course we cannot forget Sake Boy) were very good at keeping the energy flowing. We went at one of the later seatings so I applaud Chef Palm for still being vertical and able to serve considering how much alcohol he probably consumes at night. Bottom-line, it was a fun time. It was the polar opposite of what a place like Sushi Ginza Onodera (RIP) is like to dine at. I enjoyed the eel Penang curry along with all the other interesting courses. What I love most about Sushi on Me though is the authenticity of the experience. I'm not talking about the style of the nigiri, this is nowhere near an Edomae omakase. I'm talking about Chef Palm and the way he entertains and serves. This is not a show, this is literally Palm and his boy, Yammy - just being themselves and having a blast at the counter. I applaud the unfiltered sincerity of it all and they seem to book out pretty consistently. So you have to give them credit for carving out a niche concept for themselves in the omakase world. There's probably as many omakases as Starbucks now so that's saying something. read more
LOVE!! Super fun experience. The sushi isn't like the highest best premium quality but it's delicious still and the experience truly is what makes it. The chefs are a lot of fun, there's unlimited sake, and the bites are quite innovative and tasty. The whole experience is about an hour and costs $89 before tax and tip. Everyone sits at the bar. Highly recommend. read more
My awesome teacher friend and I were able to snag reservations at 6:30 PM yesterday evening! How would I describe this experience? I have no words. Okay just kidding...I have more than a few words. Speakeasy + melty-in-your-mouth sushi + shots of sake + good vibes = unforgettable experience. The best part is that you get to see them make your omakase step by step. I see the chefs folding each piece of sushi neatly and deftly compressing the rice and wasabi. You can see them torch the raw sashimi before they serve it. It's so much fun to see the ingredients added on and just being right up front to see the magic unfold. Magic=omakase. There's such cute Instagrammable items like neon signage, old school victrola, an actual phone with buttons, and a piano. How was the raw fish? Fresh, buttery, soft yet smooth. Delicious. Yellowtail, tuna, salmon, red snapper, raw oyster, etc. Ingredients include: Yuzu flavor, Sriracha hot sauce, lime zest, truffle oil, sesame oil, black caviar, fish roe, curry sauce, scallions, chili oil, CBD, etc. The vibe is hip hop, top 40, and even an old school 70's and 80's. It fits like 12 people at a bar like countertop, and there's a waiting area which is super cute. Cozy, so it's like you are squeezed in. If you are concerned about covid-19, this probably not your scene. It's not the place to bring tons of shopping bags and/or luggage. I would totally recommend it to other people if you like old school music, fresh sushi, good vibes, laid back humor. The people will talk to you and engage you in conversation...so if you don't really like people, this might feel strange. If it's your birthday or anniversary, they bring out things to make it super special! On that note, I have attached a million photographs so you can experience it too! I am absolutely recommending it to my friends and returning soon! :) read more

SO MUCH FUN!!!!! Omakase speakeasy...need I say more. Finally got a reservation and took a friend with me who didn't know what to expect. Both of us, separately, went into three different storefronts before finally heading down the red lit stairs. Unlimited sake, that may or may not have been watered down, but I didn't mind because it was free flowing. And for the reputation this spot has the quality of the fish and the amazing detail in each course exceeded my expectations. I was lucky enough to be chosen to use the torch for one of the later courses and it was so much fun! Just a hell of a good time and when you have a group like we had it made it just that much of a party! If you need a night to let loose and you want some good food while at it, this is your spot. Finally, head on over early because parking is tough and you'll want to be on time. The staff is diligently and timely but also fun. Cash only :) read more
