The progression of the courses felt intentional and balanced. Starting with richer flavors earlier helped keep the palate engaged rather than overwhelmed. The fish itself was consistently fresh and clean, with minimal seasoning that allowed the natural characteristics of each cut to come through. The chef was attentive and open to explaining the logic behind the sequence and preparation, which added depth to the experience.
One highlight was the saikyo miso black cod. It was rich but not oily, with the fat well controlled and a smooth texture that lingered pleasantly. The power tower with toro, uni, and scallop was also memorable, delivering a satisfying combination of richness and freshness with a long finish.
Overall, this is a solid choice if you value ingredient quality and restraint over heavy seasoning or showy presentation. The focus here is clearly on the fish itself.
The girl who attended us was incredibly kind and patient, explaining everything with such care that it made the whole experience feel even more special. And the chef… what a wonderful person. Friendly, warm, and genuinely passionate about his craft. He explained each piece with detail and even shared little stories behind every creation.
The 14-course menu for $89 is such good value — fresh fish, perfect timing, and a cozy atmosphere. The toro with truffle was my favorite bite. Highly recommend if you want quality omakase in NYC without overspending
