Always love coming to Sushi Yasaka. They’re really busy so definitely make sure to have a reservation (usually it’s not too hard to book in advance for lunch, which are the best times to come anyway). I really appreciate that they also offer their lunch special options on weekends, too, so corporate slaves like me can still try their cheap and delicious lunch sets 🙂
I usually order the miyabi lunch with a side of salad. The fish is always so amazingly fresh and high-quality, and it’s a perfect portion size and mix of pieces of sushi, sashimi, and rolls. The salad is a nice starter but not particularly unique as such.
It’s always a difficult choice between the miyabi lunch and the chirashi lunch, which I think looks similarly yummy, too. Will definitely want to come back and try more of their delicious lunch specials 🙂

The sushi here was amazing!! I got the spicy tuna roll, the spicy salmon roll, and the spicy shrimp tempura roll which all came in a set entree and wow. The spicy salmon roll blew my socks off, and the other two were very good as well. I also order their seaweed salad, and that was easily in my top three favorite that I’ve have (and I eat seaweed salad a lot)! My mom and I had the most wonderful time, and the next time I’m in New York I’ll certainly be back!!

Unassuming sushi spot on the Upper West Side with a fantastic lunch special (offered on weekends too). For $18 you get three rolls and a side salad – rolls are freshly made with a healthy serving of fresh fish stuffed inside
They’re really busy so be prepared to wait for a table if you don’t have a reservation!

I had a great experience here and loved the food! Their lunch specials are a great bang for your buck. I recommend coming here with a reservation because they are very busy, but I came here in a party of 2 for a weekday lunch without one and was seated in 20 minutes!

We visited for dinner a few nights ago and made reservations about 24 hours in advance for our group of three. We arrived 15 minutes early and were seated right away, which was a nice surprise. The staff were attentive throughout the evening, frequently checking on drinks and orders without being overbearing.
We started with a few appetizers to share. Portions were on the smaller side given the price, but each dish was flavorful and beautifully prepared. For my entrée, I ordered the chirashi (though listed under a different name on the menu). The fish was incredibly fresh, with a generous variety that made the dish both satisfying and memorable.
The only downside was the noise level. At first, we were seated next to a family with young children who were lively but left quickly. However, the group that came in after them was very loud, which made conversation difficult. While the food and service were excellent, the ambience may not be ideal if you’re looking for a quiet, relaxed dining experience.
Overall, this restaurant shines in terms of flavor and customer service—worth a visit if food is your priority.

My favourite sushi restaurant in UWS. I take out sushi once a week from this restaurant. They are FAST and delivery is free. The quality of their food is always great. I ate at the restaurant a few times as well. The location itself is nice, clean and cozy, but very small. It gets loud very quickly. Reservation is reccomended. The staff is always very nice and kind. I highly reccomend a stop here if you’re in the area.

Yasaka is my favorite sushi restaurant, when my friend took me to Yasaka many years ago I was so impressed about quality of fish. Still today they have not changed. I love to come here after I tried so many new sushi restaurant and I often disappointed with their quality of fish but not Yasaka!

The mini omakase and steak were healthy, delicious, and indulgent at the same time . I highly recommend! It was somewhat packed on a weeknight. I recommend a reservation. The service was great. I liked our table.

I was extremely disappointed by my recent visit. I ordered the lunch special and added a squid–uni roll. The uni was overwhelmingly fishy…… I’ve had uni many times and this was by far the worst. I politely asked to switch to another item of equal value the staff agreed. After ~20 minutes waiting, I noticed the chef point me out with a dismissive gesture (he lifted his chin and pointed me out to the servers with a quick jerk of his mouth）. When the replacement roll arrived, the waitress told me they “normally don’t accept exchanges” and that “uni just tastes like that.” She then claimed the chef had only been asking where to send the dish, a statement that contradicted what I’d just witnessed and felt like a deliberate cover-up.
I think a restaurant that presents itself as high-end should care about customer satisfaction, not belittle guests or hide behind excuses. I won’t be angry if they have either good uni or good attitude I guess.
Lunch special and my first waiter were great btw! Really like tuna here
