    First time visiting Tsumo and unfortunately we were 10 minutes late to our seating. I don't recommend being late. I felt a bit of edge to the chef. From the moment we started I felt like I should hurry and eat. No time to enjoy in between pieces. Very rushed and not relaxing. The sake was delightful and clean. Fish was fresh and very large pieces. Good concept if you are in a rush and don't want to have a conversation with anyone. Just head down and eat .

    Can't get omakase for this price in LA. Food 5/5 I love that NYC has a lot of affordable omakase options and this is worth a try. Every fish has a unique flavor to it and all the flavors complemented each other. Their warm barley tea has free refills. Service 4/5 You'll have to wait for the entire restaurant to empty before you can sit. They seat everyone at once for each time slot. Tried to make conversation with our chef but he was rather timid so I held back. Overall service is standard. They give you a scoop of ice cream for your special occasion and a cute postcard to go. Ambiance 5/5 Standard, nothing special. Bag hook = big win!

    Just an incredible and affordable omakase. Each piece was decedent and amazing. There were so many flavorful pieces that I could not choose a favorite. This is the spot to stop for omakase.

    Tsumo has a beautiful ambiance the moment you enter the dining hall. Filled with chefs - excited to give us a mind-blowing experience. From affordability to quality and taste, it definitely exceeded my expectations. Honestly, the experience speaks for itself. The lingering taste remains even a couple of days after. It was that good! My favorite was the sake (ofcourse) and chu toro with truffle.

    Friend: I found a good lunch Omakase deal (11 courses for $48 pp)! Let's go check it out! So here we are checking it out. We went to the Kips Bay location. It's very easy to pass by the spot since the name of the restaurant was really subtle. It's the epitome of iykyk The interior is very minimalist which is fine! I came for the food and not the decor! It's nice that they have to counters to accommodate more people. And they have multiple chefs at the counters so we all got to see the chef prepare the sushi and have him hand you the food / place it on your plate. All the prices were really fresh! We got: Madai Hamachi Botan Ebi Ikura Hotate Kanpachi Zuck Akami O Toro Sake Unagi Toro handroll Uni +$10 Wagyu +$12 All the pieces were great. I think my favorite was the Botan Ebi just because it has a crunch to it. Happy that we got to try out this lunch omakase!

    I'm gonna start with the restaurant itself. When you walk in you're greeted and led into the main dining area. It's very intimate maybe 20-30 people max. So id recommend for a dinner for two or maybe even a small dinner of 4 people max. They are very efficient with the service ensuring that you are in and out and they are prepping for the next round of reservations. The chef we had was so diligent and kind. He was also incredibly patient with us as we asked questions about the nigiri he served us. Truly a master of his craft. Now for the sushi !! I have favorites and not so favorites but EVERYTHING was good. This is the order they were served in: 1. Madai - good 2. Hamachi - better than Madai but I'm a fan of Hamachi 3. Scallops - loved it !! Was not expecting too because I'm not a fan of cooked scallops but the nigiri was so balanced and light and had this citrusy flavor to it 4. Sweet shrimp - good 5. Ikura - YUM !!! 6. Uni - duh, good as fuck 7. Kanpachi (baby yellowtail) - good, there were onion crisps that add great depth but I'm not the biggest fan of onion crisps on nigiri 8. Samara - not a big fan of the flame/seared nigiri but it was still good 9. Chu toro - I don't like truffle on anything but fries or pasta but toro is always delish 10. O toro - DELICIOUS 11. Sake - good but not my fave 12. Unagi - duh delish 13. Toro handroll - YUM After finishing the omakase, I got another O toro and the Uni. I also like how balanced the nigiri was, I usually like to stick to sashimi because sometimes the rice to fish ration in nigiri is off, but these were the perfect bites and every flavor was present while still making sure the fish was the star of the show. Would've loved to eat more but like I said they run a strict program I would give them 5 stars but when I found out the tip went to the company and not the chef that kind of pissed me off because the service was amazing and I wish we had known that prior to paying our bill, I would've paid him cash directly.

    The best go to omakase in the city! Miss their full slab of wagyu (now just cubed so not as great quality) but still fantastic quality throughout the meal. Consistent for a little pick-me-up! Bar seating also makes it great for solo dining/date night.

    I was in town for a quick weekend trip and had seen Tsumo on TikTok, so wanted to give it a try. At $58 for a 13 course omakase, you really can't beat this deal! Every piece of sashimi was so incredibly fresh and melt in your mouth. Even with some fish I typically don't like (I'm looking at you, shrimp), Tsumo just knocked it out of the park. This is a very great date spot, especially if you want to just sit and enjoy yourself for 90 minutes.

    The food here was amazing I felt the sushi offered was delicious and high quality. I loved the truffle piece. The restaurant is cute and fitting feels hidden in a cool way. I will say it does feel rushed I think a little more enthusiasm or explanation of the pieces would have been nice. You get what you pay for though and if you just care about the sushi and not the whole experience it is definitely worth it.

    The experience was exceptional, and the sushi was outstanding. The 13‑course tasting menu features 13 handcrafted pieces, each prepared with precision by a dedicated chef. Experience The setting resembles an intimate sushi bar, allowing guests to watch the chef prepare each course in real time. One chef serves six guests, ensuring an attentive and personalized experience. Courses are served one at a time, and the chef waits until you finish each piece before presenting the next. Taste Every piece was remarkable. The menu offers a diverse selection from salmon and tuna to caviar and Wagyu showcasing both variety and quality. All the fish was incredibly fresh, elevating each bite. A must‑visit when you're in New York.

    It is highly recommended that you get a reservation. Once you're seated, you are treated to 13 course meal, which gives you a taste of their menu selection. Once you're done with that meal, you are free to order additional items as you please. The service was amazing, fast, and fairly clean. I absolutely loved the sushi here, which makes me wonder how a restaurant can source the same fish as other sushi, restaurants, but still taste amazing. For $58, this is amazing. I cannot find anything better than this price quality ratio. Highly recommend recommended

    Make a reservation. They only allow about 15 people per seating . It is a wonderful sampling I personally like my fish to be on the colder side. I found this fish to be lukewarm. The flavors were very nice. They're simple yet complex. Very nice selection of Sakes No gimmick just delicious fish Usually takes about 50 to 60 minutes to finish .

    Ordered the takeout omakase box, phenomenal at that price point! Quick and easy pickup, and the sushi was presented very nicely. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a takeout omakase option!

We got the fish carpaccio to start and it was pretty good! It tasted like what I expected from the description. The miso soup was also good, not too salty and slightly different than your trusty takeout sushi spot. I got the dashi omelette and it was a little sweet and savory. It paired nicely with the radish. I got the cold, plum udon. Which was refreshing and a bit sour from the plums. The broth was sippable since it wasn't too salty. My friend got the mushroom cold soba and it came with mashed yam. This dish tasted more like what I was expecting since the sourness of my dish kinda was unexpected, but I still enjoyed it! My friend also got a drink and it was SO strong. I think they're serious about their drinks here I didn't see any mocktails or cocktails. They gave us black sesame ice cream on the house since her drinks came out later than expected, which was really nice! I'm not a black sesame fan, but this place's ice cream was good! You're able to chew on the black sesame's bits and pieces in there. Overall, I do think they nail Japanese food, it's supposed to be simple and clean. So if you're looking for creative and big umami flavors, that's not going to be this place. But if you want authentic, Japanese food, this is the place!

The décor features light natural wood and bamboo, creating a warm, authentic atmosphere, with an impressive collection of sake lining the wall. The food is outstanding. We started with the seasonal soft-shell crab, which was incredibly fresh and fried to perfection. The daily sashimi special was exceptionally fresh, and the salad was light and refreshing. The must-order Wagyu beef, served on a hot stone, simply melted in our mouths and was unforgettable. Every dish was beautifully prepared, and I enjoyed every single bite. The impeccable service was the icing on the cake. The staff was attentive throughout our meal, making sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. I absolutely loved the entire dining experience and can't wait to come back again!

Their reservations also book up quickly. I made my reservation a week before. We were seated in one of their booths which was cute, comfy, cozy, and clean. It was just my husband and i. They have good happy hour deals, but I don't remember how many dishes we ordered were on HH. We got the tako wasa, chicken karaage, kibinago, and mentaiko pasta. All were great! All my favorites and perfect for a quick dinner. Their menu is pretty extensive -- I wished we had more time to order a bunch of other dishes. Good portions for sharing. We were surprised we had some leftovers. Definitely a good spot for groups to order a bunch of tapas and mains. Service was good and the food and drinks came out within good timing. We'll definitely have to go another time when we're in the area with some friends and order a lot more. Can't wait to return.

Craving ramen, I discovered this place on Yelp and walked in asking for a table for 4. After about a 15 min wait, we were seated at a lovely booth. The menu featured almost too many items, kind of like a Japanese izakaya diner of sorts-- they had everything from ramen to donburi to sushi and izakaya classics. My partner felt like this was too many items to offer to possibly execute anything very well, so he was skeptical. We were hungry and ordered quite a bit of food, including fried squid legs, karaage, gyudon, veggie ramen, beef noole soup, and a scallop roll. The scallop roll was not very flavorful, and the karaage's pieces were too big. Otherwise, everything was pretty tasty, including the veggie ramen, which I found surprising. Food came out quickly and service was kind and not overbearing. Would totally recommend if you're in the area.
