The Sushi Legend
Believe it or not, but Sushi in New York City actually predates the 2010s. The Omakase wasn’t served for the first time at Sushi Nakazawa after all.

Still my all-time favorite sushi place in NYC. Came here on 9/12/2001 when the “world was ending”. Went for full omakase that day. If the world is ending you might at least have some superb sushi.

Great sushi made in front of you by a Japanese chef of more than 40 years of experience. This place opened in 1977 and creates both great food and a fantastic atmosphere! The house green tea was amazing and follow the chef’s recommendation and you can not go wrong. It is a little pricy but definitely worth it for the price!! Thank you for the great experience!

This place was fantastic. We sat at the sushi bar where the chef of something like 40 years immediately asked us if we wanted a menu or if he should just choose for us. We opted for both, ordering something from the menu and leaving the rest up to him. He was amazing, making one piece for each of us, explaining what it was and the best way to eat it (soy sauce or no soy sauce), and it was all really fantastic. The cuts of fish are top notch, as are all the ingredients. I’ve never seen better anywhere. It’s pretty pricey, though. For two of us, the bill was over $400 before tip. For us, it was well worth the cost, and we ate a lot of sushi.

Really really good sushi. Came in before the rush and was served very well. Informative sushi chef, everyone seemed genuinely interested in whether I enjoyed it.

Make sure you know what you’re getting into when you dine there. They don’t do a lot of the rolls that I typically see, and it’s overpriced. I tasted one piece and noticed that it was lox with avocado instead of raw salmon. They don’t serve raw salmon. I couldn’t eat the lox. They don’t do spicy tuna, they don’t do any specialty rolls. They didn’t have any rolls I liked at that point and wouldn’t reimburse. Ended up walking away having spent 45 dollars without eating anything.

Coming from SF I thought I knew great sushi. Turns out I was wrong. I’ve never seen cuts of fish like this place had for Omakase.
