This popped up for having a view. It was easy to get to by foot from our hotel. Getting to the restaurant was interesting. Including an elevator ride and a flight of stairs. The staff were very nice. The view wasn’t as expected but was still pleasant. It was mostly of an office building. However, still entertaining. They were able to accommodate gf and df allergies. I liked it but fair warning that the bathrooms are tiny and not the most hygienic. Grace did a great job and no complaints about the recommendations. I would go back for sure! For the fried taro chips at the very least.

I rented out this place for an after party for a proposal.
This place had the best sushi and was very fresh!! Also the appetizers were phenomenal!
Angie or (Angelina) helped me out so much, the day of and was able to accommodate all my requests!
Janine helped me with the reservation of the place, and they were so accommodating to all the requests I had! Could have never gotten a better place in NYC.
The staff at this place are amazing and helped serve everyone and made amazing food for everyone to enjoy and listened to all the food options that I would like to serve.
This place was so affordable and so beautifully decorated for a private event!
I repeat I do not think a place exists in NYC this affordable and with the amazing food options for a private event. Also, this place is a rooftop so even more wow!
The location of this place is conveniently situated right next to Times Square, allowing visitors to explore other attractions in New York City later at night.

Loved my time at Sushi Lab! The food was fresh, delicious and beautifully presented. If you’re a sushi lover like me, this place is perfect! The service was amazing everyone was so friendly and attentive. I highly recommend the Matcha Crunch Roll and the Sushi Box. Plus, it’s on a rooftop which makes the whole experience even more special. I can’t wait to go back!

Like watching 15 flowers bloom and blossom in front of you. With the change of seasons, when witnessing the cherry blossom lose its leaves, we may feel a desire to hold onto the fleeting moment. But… with a new season, comes a new flower, a new leaf.
An experience you won’t regret.
As though you walk into a field, find a secret garden hidden by a wall draped with rosy reds and ivy, enter into a glass elevator, and are lifted to 15 different floors, each with a different dreamscape.
I wrote this review immediately after my meal, because you need to know about this omakase experience. This is not a restaurant, this is an experience.
Question is… are you experienced?
If not, don’t worry. Vanessa and David will take care of you like they took care of me.
David: 24 years of experience, graceful master.
Vanessa: empathy, understanding, and a similar-different zen.
Savor everything and enjoy the temperance of every moment. Life is meant to be lived.
Plate selection, temperature, texture, tenderness, depth, contrast… only a few of the details you will notice.
The Lab Experiment menu is constantly changing, constantly evolving.
I know I will return as often as possible.
Don’t miss the chance of a lifetime.

I went here with a girlfriend of mine to have lunch and we had such a good time. The restaurant is located on top of the roof of the Sanctuary Hotel. You have to take the elevator and then get off and walk upstairs to the rooftop. The place was quiet, clean and the staff was very friendly and kind. We had a variety of sushi and they didn’t disappoint. I know it’s a sushi place but I must say I enjoyed the french fries a whole lot. They also offer a few gluten free dishes.
I would definitely recommend going here for brunch, lunch or dinner.

My boyfriend and I had an amazing experience here! We went with the Chef’s Selection Omakase, and it did not disappoint. The fish was incredibly fresh, and each piece seemed to top the last. We got to watch each dish being made, and every bite was unique and full of flavor.
We also tried the salmon belly and poached Asian pear appetizer, which was light, refreshing, and perfect to start a meal without being too filling. The drinks were excellent as well. The Lychee Martini was the best I’ve had anywhere in the city!
Our server (I wish I remembered his name) was fantastic. For our anniversary, we were surprised with complimentary champagne, which was such a thoughtful touch. He also overheard that the guest next to us was celebrating a birthday and added a candle to his dessert. The service truly went above and beyond.
(our reservation was 9/13 under Messier)
Highly recommend!

It was really cute! We walked in for lunch on a week day and were impressed with how good everything was. Menu is marked with gluten free options and they have gluten free soy sauce. The gluten free rolls were amazing! Highly recommend a stop by. And the lunch prices are not bad.

A Flawless Fusion of Ambiance, Artistry, and Omakase Excellence
Stepping through the opulent, statue-adorned lobby of The Sanctuary Hotel in NYC is an experience in itself, setting a dramatic stage for the culinary theater that awaits at Sushi Lab, its stunning rooftop restaurant. On a recent Thursday evening, my wife and I were transported from the bustle of the city into a world of chic sophistication. The restaurant’s ambiance strikes a perfect balance between intimate and energetic, reminiscent of a trendy Las Vegas hotspot like Vanderpump, yet entirely its own.
After an emotionally profound day at the 9/11 Memorial, the experience at Sushi Lab was the perfect antidote. From the moment we arrived for our 8:00 PM reservation, the hospitality was nothing short of phenomenal. The staff, from the welcoming hostess to our incredible server, Peter, created an atmosphere of relaxed indulgence that felt like a warm embrace. We were encouraged multiple times to take our time and savor the evening—a refreshing departure from the often-rushed omakase experiences found elsewhere in the city, and exactly the kind of calm we needed.
We began with a selection of appetizers that immediately showcased the kitchen’s creativity and commitment to quality. The Tuna Tacos were a delight, with fresh, spicy tuna nestled in crisp jicama shells. However, the true star of the starters was the Yellowtail Jalapeño Roll. The delicate yellowtail, paired with the sharp kick of jalapeño, a savory chili soy glaze, and the crunch of crispy garlic, was an absolute masterpiece of texture and flavor.
My wife, not overly hungry after a classic New York hot dog detour earlier, chose the appetizers and the incredible Yellowtail Jalapeño Roll for her meal, which proved to be a showstopper in its own right. Meanwhile, I embarked on what can only be described as a culinary odyssey: “The Lab Experiment.” This 15-course signature omakase is a journey for the senses, a meticulously curated procession of the finest ingredients, including buttery fresh truffle and exquisite caviar flown in directly from Japan. The absolute highlight was the Hotate (Scallop). Naturally sweet yet subtly flavored, Sushi Lab’s preparation was ingenious, serving it with shiitake mushrooms and generous shavings of fresh truffle that elevated the delicate scallop to an unforgettable level. There wasn’t a single course I didn’t thoroughly enjoy.
What truly elevates Sushi Lab is the seamless execution. The pacing was impeccable; dishes arrived promptly without ever making us feel hurried. The manager graciously visited our table to ensure our experience was perfect, her attentiveness underscoring the team’s genuine passion. This is the ideal spot for both omakase newcomers and seasoned aficionados, offering a relaxed environment perfect for catching up with friends or celebrating a special occasion, just as we were for our anniversary.
In a city saturated with sushi options, Sushi Lab stands in a class of its own. It delivered, without exaggeration, the best sushi I have ever had. The combination of an enchanting atmosphere, world-class service led by professionals that care about you enjoying your experience, and an unforgettable omakase menu makes it a must-visit destination. We are already planning our return.
