Went here for a late Valentine’s Day dinner for the 19 course Omakase and Saishin exceeded our expectations!!! Chef Patrick and Server Sebastian were outstanding. Their knowledge of the food was beyond evident. The food was high quality, fresh and a spectrum of flavors. Even the eggs were imported from Japan. They made our dinner experience fun and intimate. We will absolutely be coming back. Oh and the view was spectacular.

The service felt very rushed and we were told we had two hours (which is fine? And also it’s a set menu so I felt like the pace wasn’t really up to us)
We went for the Valentine’s Day special, but the food seemed to have been catering style due to how lukewarm some of the dishes were. (Instance the fried fish). The ingredients didn’t seem very fresh and was overdosed with soy sauce. Furthermore I also got a bone in my amberjack sashimi AND a fish scale in one of my later nigiris. This has never happened in any of the other tens of other omakase shops I’ve been to in the city. I’ve also never seen ginger at any Japanese shop that is chopped like a daikon? Is this what they mean by fusion? (See attached)
I’m not sure why exactly there was a ton of lime juice or equivalent in the panna cotta dessert, and overall the taste seems off. The chefs also did not follow the order listed on the menu. I’m not trying to be picky here but it seems like nothing went well?
Anyway we left and decided to go home and cook another dinner instead since we were also still hungry ♀️
New York has so many other restaurants that are not only cheaper, but won’t stab you in the mouth with a fish bone. I’d highly advise that you go elsewhere Valentine’s Day or not.

I came and brought my parents here for a nice rooftop dinner in NY. However we ended up with an incredibly long dinner that wasn’t very satiating but still very expensive.
The courses were standard with nothing really standing out. The kitchen had a huge delay that day so our food took what felt like an hour to arrive, so we started getting hungry between each course. This seemed like a one time accident though, since our following courses were slow but not nearly as slow as the first few.
Considering the price point and most of the roof shuttered behind plastic, it’s just not worth it.

came for the 17 course menu on New year’s Eve and was not disappointed. The food was fantastic and the sake selection was great. I wish the server had been more knowledgeable, but the chefs were great. Phenomenal view and a lovely space as well.

Had an excellent time at Saishin! Service was excellent. Daniel was amazing. Service was only topped by the food. Everything was fresh and one of the better omakase experiences I’ve had. Only critique would be the drinks selection. I would’ve preferred more option’s particularly with standard liqour. Hope they get a more open selection of drinks. It’s pricey but the food and service are up to par.

Great sushi! Non alcohol options for drinks are limited (just regular sodas), but the sake and beer are nice, although these are served in a wine glass (with a half liter can of beer warming up next to it). If they get the drinks in order it would be amazing, now just the food is really nice.
Sushi is sushi with a twist though: fatty tuna with fried garlic isn’t bad, but it takes away the amazing taste of the fatty tuna. Same with other sushi’s.

Omakase at a premium: you can certainly get just as solid quality for cheaper in NYC, but come for the good company and wonderful views. The sushi chefs are quite creative and so so so friendly, and made the entire experience worthwhile. Really intimate spot, and perfect for a date night.

This restaurant is tucked away on the 14th floor of the Ganesvoort Hotel. It comes with epic views & a small & intimate atmosphere. If you can sit at the sushi bar, it’s a treat. The 12 course option is one of my favorites and it does vary based on what is fresh & the creativity of the sushi chef. The cocktail list is curated to match the fair, highlighting sakes & Japanese gins. Certainly a fun experience!

Really impressive omakase experience at this new rooftop sushi bar. The fish was extremely fresh and they were so thoughtful about the combination of flavors – everything from pico de gallo to shaved truffle complement each piece perfectly! They source their ingredients from all over the world so we had the chance to try three different types of uni in one sitting. Pretty fantastic experience!

Intimate omakase bar with beautiful city views. The chefs are super friendly and chatted with us all evening.
Every course was delightful and I loved many of the pieces that had a fruity companion (yuzu, passion fruit, to name a few).
(The Google location was incorrect at the time of my visit. You have to go to the Gansevoort Hotel and ask for the elevator to go to the rooftop bar. Then ask for the directions to the sushi bar. It’s tucked away in the corner of the rooftop bar through a door)
