Easily recommended! Fairly small, low-key place with a long sushi counter and a handful of tables. If you go for omakase there are several price points available, which I think are all very reasonable.
If you’re at the sushi counter, the service is very efficient; this won’t be a course that goes on for hours. Good variety of fish and flavors, hitting a few different points of taste and texture. Definitely good nigiri, all nicely put together with unique garnishes that complement each piece without being overpowering.
I’d happily make a return visit.

We had a great friend’s meetup before anime claw. The sushi was very fresh and while the combinations weren’t quite there I’d still recommend for takeout or a casuals date night in the area. You can get your sushi fix and be close to many night life activities after.

We got one of their omakase sets. It came with about 15 pieces of sushi. The set included mackerel, trout, squid, toro, and uni among other dishes. All the pieces were fresh and delicious. There was only 1 piece that we didn’t really care for but only cause it lacked flavor compared the others. Our favorites were the uni and otoro.
We also got the green tea tiramisu for dessert. Very strong and bitter matcha flavor which went well with the vanilla ice cream.

One of the best sushi places in town. Everything was excellent . We had several combinations of sushi and sashimi and was just delicious. Went there 3 times already . Service is very friendly..and behind the sushi bar there is an “angry” demanding sushi man 🙂 we felt in safe hands!! I would go again!!

This is one of my new favorite sushi restaurants in New York City. Although the price is slightly on the high side, the fish is so fresh and so well-cut that you should indulge yourself.
If you are the type of person who needs to drown their sushi in soy sauce and wasabi, this place might not be for you. Every slice is perfectly seasoned with a variety of sauces, and it’s not usually soy sauce.
The waiter was attentive, and the fish came out quickly over several different courses, timed just right so we never felt rushed or abandoned. The decor is Japanese minimalist; clean and sparse with lots of wood and light colors.
I eat a lot of sushi. I love it. Living in Japan for five years taught me how to appreciate excellent fish and the complexity of flavors of a well-made roll. It’s not about the fancy things like spices and cream cheese, more about the subtleties of the flavors coming together. Sushi Katsuei brings all of this together along with a Japanese vibe to transport you to a faraway place.

We had the pleasure of dining at Sushi Katsuei, and I can confidently say that it was an unforgettable culinary experience. From the moment I walked in, I was enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere that set the stage for what would be an exceptional meal.
We opted for the omakase, which is a traditional Japanese dining style where the chef selects and serves a series of dishes based on the freshest ingredients of the day. This experience allows diners to sit at the counter right in front of the sushi chef, creating an intimate interaction as they prepare each piece of sushi right before your eyes. It’s a unique opportunity to witness the artistry and precision that goes into crafting each dish, while also receiving personal attention and insights from the chef about the ingredients and flavors.
Our sushi chef was not only skilled but also incredibly friendly and engaging. He made us feel right at home and took the time to explain each dish as it was presented, sharing stories about the fish and its origins. It was clear that he had a deep passion for his craft, which made the experience all the more enjoyable.
The sushi itself was outstanding. Each piece was a work of art, showcasing fish from all over the world, with a particular emphasis on selections from the waters south of Japan and Cape Cod. The freshness and quality of the fish were truly remarkable. From buttery tuna to delicate flounder, each bite was a delightful explosion of flavor. The chef’s expert knife skills and attention to detail were evident in every piece, making the omakase a true testament to the artistry of sushi making.
One of the highlights was the chef’s unique presentations and the thoughtful combinations of flavors. It was evident that each dish was carefully curated to provide a perfect balance of taste and texture. The accompanying sauces and garnishes enhanced the experience without overpowering the freshness of the fish.
Furthermore, my husband, who is gluten-free, appreciated that the chef was accommodating and made adjustments based on his dietary needs. This level of consideration added to our positive experience, as it allowed us both to enjoy the meal without any concerns.
The intimate setting of Sushi Katsuei added to the experience, allowing for a personal connection between the chef and the diners. The ambiance was relaxed, making it a perfect spot for a special occasion or a memorable night out.
In conclusion, Sushi Katsuei exceeded all my expectations. The omakase was a culinary journey that showcased the best of what sushi has to offer, all while being guided by a friendly and talented chef. If you’re a sushi lover in NYC, I highly recommend making a reservation at Sushi Katsuei. It’s an experience that celebrates the art of sushi and will leave you craving more long after you leave!

We read great reviews about this sushi restaurant, and it lived up to those reviews. This was some of the best sushi we have ever had. We ordered a la carte, but had it omakase style (with sauces and toppings picked by the chef). This is absolutely the way to go! These sushi chefs know exactly what they are doing – the pairings were perfect and each piece was a little slice of heaven. They even had fish we had never tried before, so it was fun being a bit adventurous.
Service was very friendly. Ambiance was a bit sterile, but who cares with sushi this good?

Felt a little rushed dining here because they had to turn the table over after an hour and a half, and they kept repeatedly reminding us about it, so it’s hard to feel relaxed dining when you’re just looking at the clock. However, the sushi itself was excellent. And the fish was fresh, buttery soft, and well flavored. The sushi and shasimi omakase is a good deal for the variety and quality of fish. The interior looks like a standard sushi spot not too fancy but good for casual dining.

Jackie and the team at Sushi Katsuei made this omakase experience so enjoyable! They were accommodating for any dietary restrictions that we had and made sure we had the fully experience. Sitting at the counter is a must, being able to have the origin of each fish explained, the names of each fish and what flavors we would experience in each course was an integral part to the whole experience.
