Rather than a high quality sushi establishment, this is rather a place to be seen and be. The food was mostly alright, but not worth the price nor was it a pleasant dining experience. The uni scallops were a huge disappointment. They detracted from each other and was better eaten separately. The vinegrette also brought out the bitterness from the uni. The salmon nigiris were okay, but no better than those you find at Japanese supermarkets. Ikura wasn't very good quality. Actually, I've had better from markets. Uni crispy rice was the best thing I had that night, but what does that say about this being a sushi restaurant? The only highlight of the night were the cocktails and the four we ordered were absolutely delicious. We won't be back. read more

BondST - Salmon and ikura nigiri - Japanese Near Me - New York, New York

Sushi was overall good. Maybe 1-2 dishes we ordered were considered "amazing" or next level to our entire group. When arriving we were told there was a $125 minimum spend per person which was not disclosed when making the reservation. When asking our server if we hit our minimum multiple times, she gave vague answers to keep us ordering more. Overall a good vibe but over priced and over hyped for what you actually get. read more

Bc Definitely overrated. The food is very average. We actually had decreased appetite after the first appetizer. The service is actually quite nice they even offer to check out bags for us so we can sit more comfortably at the bar. read more

Came here for date night for a dinner on my company's dime. Reservation was made prior and we were promptly seated. Boy bondst was such a good experience if you're into seafood, sushi, and open to fusiony Japanese food. Love the sleek decor in the restaurant. We ordered: crab crispy rice, belly nigiri quartet seared (4x nigiri), lychee martini, Hokkaido scallops, edamame, yellowtail, Chilean sea bass. Total came to be $215 tax and tip incl. Favorites? Seared belly quartet - four pieces of beautiful nigiri seared to a juicy char. Salmon was my favorite along with the otoro nigiri Crab crispy rice - four quite large pieces of crab in a slaw over a perfectly fried crispy rice. Think crab meat on top of rice crispy rolls. This combo definitely works for me Hokkaido scallops - love the puree! Scallops were seared beautifully Chilean sea bass - I love the miso sake marinade, really adds a whole new dimension to it's flavor profile! Fish portion though was quite small wish it was bitter Lychee martini - Get your girl a glass of this and she'll be happy on just this for the rest of the night. Service was fast, prompt and attentive. No complaints here. Definitely would be down to come back to try their other items! A+ from me here read more

BondST has been on my list for a few years now, since it's gotten sooo many reviews. The neighborhood is really cute and the space itself is really dark and vibey - though the tables are a bit tight. They suggest you order family style and you have to put your entire order in at the onset. The salmon belly nigiri was probably our favorite dish of the night and the jalapeno scallop roll was a must order as well. I would skip the toro tartar w/ caviar (way too mushy and salty), the crunchy rice w/ crab (waayyy too much mayo), and the king crab roll (super dry and not flavorful). Overrall for the money we spent, I am not sure I'd recommend BondST again - I think there are other better sushi spots in the city and this was just an average experience. read more

This place is quite literally perfect in my eyes. We ordered mainly appetizers and nigiri and literally everything was absolutely perfect. This will be a meal I will never forget. The service was absolutely acceptional! It felt like we had a personal server. The ambiance was incredible, I highly reccomend making a reservation at the counter as it really adds to the whole experience. What we ordered.

I absolutely love this place the food is amazing and delicious and I totally recommend this place I've been here several times. Ps I'm 9

So I've been dying to try this place. The location is great and easy to get to. The service was fantastic. Attentive friendly staff. The food was pretty good. We started with the scallop hot app, Uni crispy rice and the Jerusalem artichoke ( which I apparently forgot to get a photo of) All of the apps were really good. Flavors were amazing as well as the presentation. The omakase was great. Especially loved my ikura has a citrus flavor to it which was lovely Dessert was fabulous and they make a pretty good lychee martini. All in all the food was pretty good. You pay for the location. I do agree with most of the reviews about the $$. The food is a bit overpriced for what it is, but it also is in NOHO. read more

I went here for the second time last night and first advice I have is definitely go in with a reservation, especially on a Saturday night. I called earlier in the day and asked to be added to a waitlist for 3 around 8:30. So once I got there, they actually did have a table for us in the bar area but we were waiting on a friend so I had to wait for another after they arrived. Since I didn't take that table and checked in about 30 minutes later we had to wait an entire hour for a table to open up. We were fine waiting at the bar because some seats opened up but this bar is veryyyyy tiny. Even with a reservation though you will have to wait about 15-20 minutes, we noticed this was the norm for everyone. Once we were finally seated we were so hungry so we ordered tons of sushi and about two entrees. Everything was delicious and their lychee martinis were so good, I couldn't get enough. Unfortunately this was a no picture night but I know I'll be back and will add pictures. read more

The Food is great! We had the tofu miso soup, a couple different rolls and the Chilean Sea Bass was to die for! Loved the Saikyo Miso sauce! Desserts were delicious. The Service was phenomenal, Grace was super knowledgeable and the Ambiance is amazing, although the music was a little loud to have intimate conversations. They have a separate gluten free menu and can also make some adjustments to other items. I recommend BondST - 5*, and will come again the next time I'm in NYC! read more

Really great quality food, fish is great, serviced amazing. Place is nice and you can see all of manhattan.

We came here this Tuesday evening and this place was packed! Indoor, outdoor, lounge, and 2nd floor were all packed. There were birthdays, special events, celebrity sightings, etc. But nonetheless, the service was excellent, and the food and drinks were fresh and refreshing. Some of the items we tried: Big Eye Tuna Tart: I really liked this one. It was delicious. It came with creamy ponzu, white truffle oil, and micro shiso on the big eye tuna tart. Tuna Crispy Rice: This one was also really good. It's like sushi but sitting on top of crispy fried rice. The tuna was mixed with Gochujang and Serrano chili sauce. Szechuan Yellowtail Sashimi: Very light and refreshing. It came with Szechuan ponzu, chili oil, and sliced Serrano peppers. Blue Fin Tuna Toro Roll: I really liked this roll. The toro was really fresh and light. This dish was served with scallion soy sauce. Seared Salmon Roll: This one was also good and fresh, however I'm not too crazy about it. It's served with lemongrass vinaigrette. Green Tea Mille Crepe: I really enjoyed this dessert. It reminded me of Lady M but with a twist. It came with a burnt sugar topping and a gold flake. Yamamomo Framboise: I really liked this one. It's pink, bubbly, and refreshing. It came with Tattinger champagne, St. Germain, Japanese mountain peach purée, raspberry jam, and lemongrass. Smoked Mule: It was smokey from the mezcal but in a good way. It came with Herradura Blanco tequila, Illegal Joven mezcal, cold-pressed Fuji apples, ginger purée, cucumber, lime, and Angostura bitters. Shiso Cucumber: This one had a very refreshing cucumber flavor. It came with Nolet's Silver dry gin, muddled shiso, cucumber, and lemon. Prosecco: Your typical Prosecco. Cold and refreshing. read more

It's been a long time since I've been to Bond St and it's as good as I remembered. We didn't have a reservation, but lucked out as someone didn't show up for theirs and were able to get seated. I would definitely recommend reservations. Spicy King Crab Crispy Rice: Typically you see this with tuna or salmon, it was a nice change to see crab and it was excellent. Mushroom Donabe: Wow, this dish is just incredible. The flavors were amazing. Blue Fin Toro and Spicy Tuna rolls: Both very good. The sushi here is fresh and well prepared. Hands down the King Crab Crispy Rice and Mushroom Donabe were my favorite dishes and I would get them again. I'm looking forward to trying out more of their dishes. The service was also excellent here. read more

After two years away from NYC (pandemic), a move to Miami, and a baby. My first visit to NYC and this was my dinner stop. Overall (5/5) clearly my favorite in NYC and maybe restaurant period (Miami just can't mimic bond st sushi vibe like NYC, sorry Miami) Venue (5/5) I go straight to the downstairs lounge. Regardless of how you want to classify this place it's trendy and a place where people are aware they are being watched. I'd say well dressed...beautiful people vibe. Plenty of dates and smaller groups. You'll see celebrities here and lots of models. Food (5/5) the picture is my go - to orders. Tuna tart, spicy tuna crispy rice, spicy crispy shrimp... dry sakatini. Now in 2022/2023 the prices are higher than pre pandemic but worth every penny. Mmmmmm. Desserts are wonderful too. Matcha layer cake or lava cake! Service (5/5). Wonderful. It's pricey so the service does match the price point. read more

This place has been solid for such a long time Rolls are so good Yellow tail Spicy Tuna Salmon Crab They were stelar! Service is top notch and I really like the atmosphere. We had a party of 5 and sat upstairs where it seemed more cozy and quiet. Place was packed and it was really pleasant and decently quiet with a low buzz All in all it was a great experience read more

I'm confused how this place doesn't have 5 stars because it was incredible! the ambiance inside was beautiful, it felt very upscale and the service was great to match it. I started off with what might have been the perfect lychee martini. the seaweed salad and yellowtail crudo were both great starters but the crispy tuna rice really stole the show, it was amazing. the spicy tuna roll was probably the best of its kind that I've had and the scallop roll might be one of my favorite rolls I've had! we ended up ordering a second one because it was so good. it was definitely a bit pricey but the quality was worth it! read more

The appetizers are the show stoppers here. I've been here twice and had great service both times. The food comes out quickly and the apps are unbelievable. The rolls to me aren't worth the price but definitely get the big eye tune pizza, crispy rice, crispy shrimp , & chicken Katzu bun. The vibe inside is giving dark high class sushi restaurant vibes my mom had to use her flashlight to see the menu. MUST VISIT SPOT read more

You must make a reservation at this place!! It's quite small, but worth it. We started with a few apps including a fried shrimp dish. SO good. The table got some sushi rolls including a tuna one, shrimp tempura like one, and a the sun dried tomato roll. All were good - The Tuna roll was my favorite. The sushi wasn't nearly as memorable as my main dish. I felt odd about ordering something other than sushi at this place, but the reviews of this one specific entree were all so positive i had to try it. I had the mushroom crispy rice donabe and WOW. The skillet was scalding hot and totally added to the crispness of the rice. I've never had rice so flavorful and perfectly crisp. Mushrooms galore all perfectly cooked with a beautiful onsen egg on top. Everyone at my table was so impressed by this dish. I would absolutely go back for the mushroom dish. WOW. read more

BONDST BONDST BONDST Basically the new Nobu. This place we absolutely delicious and I highly suggest going here over Nobu if you're with a group and want more of a party atmosphere before a night out. We started with the shishito pepper margaritas of course and they were delicious. We also got a bottle of saki for the table. Appetizers: The MUSTS include the crispy rice with delicious melted tuna on top so good. The tempura shrimp was crispy and the sauce was on point! Different from Nobu's and might even be better - you be the judge. Sushi: the spicy scallop roll is always my go to so of course that was amazing we got 8 of those rolls. The tuna roll and salmon rolls were fresh, no complaints. We also ordered every single one of their desserts and my favorite was the chocolate. I'd skip the cheesecake and panna cotta however I'm not a bit sweets person in general so , take that for what it is. The bill was a nice $2,450 for 8 people so expect that. Cheers! read more

Went with my family here tonight, we sat in a corner booth in the lounge, such a fun vibe. Definitely make a resy far in advance as it is always packed but feeds into the ambiance. The service was a little but on the slower side but it was also very crowded in the restaurant but not so slow that we were annoyed just helped pace the meal. We started off with the crispy rice(the tuna was amazing!--could go back and just eat plates of that) then had the wagyu. It came on a hot rock and was so flavorful, then we ordered 3 rolls(shrimp, scallop and crab avocado--all sooo good--shrimp was the best) as well as some pieces which were all so fresh especially the king crab. Would recommend and will return! read more

This place is so good for a really over the top night out. This restaurant has the whole building and it's very vibey. You take the elevator up to the main dining room which is dark and sleek looking. We ordered a lot of stuff to share. Uni on crispy rice, tuna tarts, and tons of rolls - spicy tuna etc. is it the absolute best sushi in nyc? Not really but it's close and really good from a vibes and food standpoint. You feel like you've gone somewhere different which is always the goal in the nyc restaurant game. read more

Most overrated and overpriced sushi place I've ever been to. Appetizers were okay, main course was below average. Does not come close to justifying the price. read more

The LOUDEST restaurant i have EVER been to. My body inside was shacking from how loud it was. I couldn't even think that's how loud it was from everyone talking . The walls are to bare people voices bouncing off of them . They need to put stuff on the walls to soften the sound. Even if i got a free meal from them i would never go back . Two stars because i couldn't even enjoy the food from the nose. read more

I don't give out 5 stars usually but this place deserves it. The staff is attentive and nice. Went on a Saturday night place was packed but we still got the attn we deserved Went for my friends 60th birthday so special place for special day. I don't know what to say about the food but WOW. I have been lucky enough to have eaten at some of the best restaurants in the county and this place just got into my top 10. I know it will draw some criticism but I enjoyed more then I did EN Japanese To me it's like the Beauty and Essex of Sushi Please go and enjoy read more

While I love the food at BondST, I was quite disappointed about a sanitary issue and how it was handled. I was using the restrooms about 5 minutes after the restaurant had opened, in advance of sitting down at my table. I noticed that one of the two toilet paper rolls was a little wet so when I went to unravel the second toilet paper roll, I noticed these brown / red dots all over the toilet paper. Several weeks prior I had seen a video online alerting people to watch out for toilet paper in public restrooms as drug users frequently use the toilet paper rolls to clean off their needles. After coming out of the restroom, I alerted a manager and explained the issue. The response lacked any concern. The manager simply said "I'll change that out for you." Well a little too late as I had already used the toiler paper, and yes would recommend tossing it out so others health are not put at risk. Management should have taken this issue much more seriously and should check the cameras. I spent the entirety of the dinner concerned about my health and wondering who in the restaurant was the one using drugs. read more

BondST never disappoints. I have been more times than I can count at this point, and every time the service is impeccable. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu (the Big Eye Tuna Tarts are a MUST)!!!

I Always a great Experience at Bondst. Great location and friendly staff. Can't wait to go back again soon.

Food was ok. Not the best sushi I've ever had, but overall it was solid. Service was VERY slow and the waitress was a bit rude. We were there fairly early on a Friday (around 6pm) and they were only at half capacity, but we kept having to flag down the waitress (she never stopped by to ask if we needed anything) and our food and drinks took a long time. Ambience was probably the best thing about this place. Great playlist and the vibe gets going as the place fills up and people gather by the bar for drinks. Would probably return for a birthday dinner or something similar if we could get a different (dedicated) waitress to cover us. read more

Some of the best sushi in the city for sure! its expensive but worth it. Some of my favorite appetizers that we had were the Tuna tarts, Tuna crispy rice, and the Nasu Dengaku which is a miso eggplant dish. the tuna tart dish was unique and not something I have seen in other places and the tuna crispy rice is just a classic favorite. One of my favorite dishes of the night though was the miso eggplant I thought this had a lot of flavor. For the mains we split the broiled sea bass and the grilled wagyu, the sea bass was definitely the stand out for me between the two. Lastly we asked them to make us a sushi platter with an assortment or sushi for everyone to share. This was the highlight of the meal, this is a great place for sashimi since everything is really fresh and had amazing flavor. the brought out a great assortment of sushi and sashimi. a really great place if you are celebrating something special and looking to have a treat yourself meal. the food lives up to the price! read more

Visited here for New Year's Eve with a 10:30 PM reservation, and was seated at 10:45 (no biggie, they were pretty packed, which is a good sign to me). Our waiter was a super stylish, super helpful man who pointed out the specials to us and ensured our dishes were always cleared and water always full - so 5 stars already for service! To start we ordered the chicken yuba dumplings and the spicy crispy shrimp, I, and I cannot stress this enough, had my mind blown by the fact that the yuba dumpling was in fact made with tofu skin, and I could not wrap my head around the culinary genius that came up with this concept!! For rolls, we had the sundried tomato and avo roll, and the crispy tuna rice. I wasn't expecting to be impressed by the sundried tomato roll, we ordered it because my mum doesn't eat raw seafood - but that roll was just as amazing as the crispy tuna rice - HIGHLY recommend! For mains, we ordered the Moro miso organic chicken and the grilled branzino. I just honestly don't have words for how perfectly both dishes were cooked, the forbidden rice and the sauce in the chicken dish made me feel like I was on an island somewhere. The branzino was perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside, flavourful on the inside and topped with an amazing salsa, but infused with an even more mind blowing ginger ponzu sauce. I wouldn't waste your time on the nonalcoholic drinks, stick to bottled wine or champagne. Bathrooms are clean, definitely echoing the whole no toilet paper complaint after a couple hours in the restaurant - BYOTP!! Highly recommend to everyone, this is a culinary experience you will LOVE! read more

Very hyped, but appropriately so. The restaurant is beautiful -- definitely somewhere you can dress up a little to go to. We ordered the tuna crispy rice, the gyoza, and and the crispy shrimp to start. All great but the short rib gyoza was top notch with an awesome flavor profile. The jalapeño scallop roll was our favorite of the sushi rolls. The bread pudding was a wonderful treat--best I've ever had read more

Very cool setting, definitely made me feel like i was in London. Very tight spot at least the lower lever is, the second floor dinning is wey more comfortable. They are not very good with reservations to say the least, will make you wait at least half hour in their tint tiny bar area where the bartender never ever gets your order... pointless situation!!! But then when you order food you do forger about the wait and really start enjoying a great culinary experience. Do not miss the tuna tostadas (named differently), the scallop shell comes with tuna and uni, very delicious. The sashimi and sushi is not at all creative but by. Far one of the freshest in town. Vibrant scene and high level atmosphere. read more

TLDR: Upscale NoHo Japanese restaurant specializing in sushi. Very pretty decor, more of an "impress" kind of restaurant. While the food tastes good - this place is very expensive. Kind of reminds me of like Tao/Nobu, pretentious modern Asian dining. I had wanted to try BONDST for a long time, so when we finally did - I was very much looking forward to dinner. I remember when I first opened the menu I started laughing because I thought some of the prices were a bit much.. $9 for a miso soup? We tried the Big Eye Tuna Tarts.. I'll give them that one - that appetizer was pretty bomb. The truffle was well-placed, the tart was razor thin, a nice layer of tuna straight across. Very enjoyable. As for the sushi, the rolls have the usual luxury ingredients you'd have undoubtedly expected. We did one chef omakase and it was fine but nothing stood out to me. I honestly think I'd just come back for that tuna tart or maybe if I had to do a business dinner, that required these kinds of optics. If you're looking for a true omakase experience or celebratory occasion, I think there are better choices. read more
