Reviews
My favorite dish was the ebi shrimp — it tasted great and had a really nice smoky aroma. The quality of the fish was good overall. However, I wasn’t very impressed with the rice. The texture and flavor of the rice, as well as the sauce brushed on it, weren’t as rich or well-balanced compared to other places I’ve tried.
The atmosphere wasn’t as quiet or intimate as another omakase restaurant I’ve been to. The staff were attentive and friendly, though they spoke quite loudly. I understand that might be part of the restaurant’s style.
Overall, I would say it was okay.
What truly set this experience apart, though, was the warmth of the team. Midway through the meal, the chef and staff poured a complimentary sake shot and invited me to cheers together – a small gesture, but one that perfectly captured the spirit of the place. It felt personal, joyful, and refreshingly unpretentious.
This is omakase done right: top-quality fish, skilled craftsmanship, and a human touch that elevates everything. Easily one of the best omakase experiences I’ve had in New York. 10/10, wholeheartedly recommended.
The chefs were friendly and made the experience enjoyable without it feeling stiff or formal. The pacing was perfect, and for an omakase in NYC, the quality and value are hard to beat. Would definitely come back and highly recommend it.
So I did the 18 course option and if I talk about every single piece, which I easily could, this review would span the length of a new york times best selling novel. Let me tell you about my favorites.
My absolute favorite, thankfully saved for last, was the BBQ Eel Avocado. WOW. WOW. WOW. The flavors were taking my tongue through uncharted territory that was one of the best things Ive ever put inside of my mouth I’m actually falling into a depression that I can’t permanently have that taste in my mouth.
Second favorite has to be the Madai (Red Snapper) which was equally smooth and sharp. It allowed me to roll my eyes back in bliss while packing a punch. Unbelievable.
The King Salmon had me in disbelief that salmon could taste this way. So unique.
And my last fav was the Albacore Tuna which was just a classic prepared to perfection with an amazing crunch to it that sealed the deal.
All of this incredible food matched with the most fun hospitality I could ever experience. All the sushi chefs were here to have a GOOD TIME!!! Taking shots of Japanese Whiskey with us in between each dish, singing their hearts out with us in Karaoke, and celebrating one incredible night.
Sushi by M is THE PLACE TO BE if you want to have the night of your life.
Each sushi chef, the managers the waitstaff make it their mission to make you feel at home and happy with your experience. They are so happy to make sure you are enjoying your meal and make you feel like family. They remember you and are so glad to see you again. They go the extra mile in every sense of the word.
I really enjoy coming to this restaurant. I have brought 2 friends already and they have loved it as well. I hear that there have been repeat customers. Highly, highly recommend coming here.
