Very happy that this was my last spot in NY! 13 course omakase + 2 rounds of AYCE, the day we went they had 4 offerings which were the salmon, yellowtail, fatty tuna, & wagyu. I really liked how I was served with miso soup throughout the entirety of my meal. Our favorites in the course were the scallop, salmon with truffle & foie gras, tuna with caviar, ebi, and uni. For the ayce portion, I stuck to the fatty tuna topped with yuzu caviar and wagyu (literally so amazing). For $95 total pp this was a good deal, they also offer unlimited alcoholic, non-alcoholic drinks, and mochi dessert at the end. The chef (Jeffrey) and waitress (Jenny) were awesome and really took care of us. Left very happy and can't wait to visit again when I'm back in NY. read more

Hatsu Omakase - Sushi Bars Near Me - New York, New York

See all

If you are looking for an exceptional, intimate omakase experience that hits every single mark, Hatsu Omakase is it. Sitting at the counter, you get a front-row seat to the chefs working their magic. The atmosphere is cozy, unpretentious, and deeply focused on the art of the food. Every piece served is a masterclass in flavor balance and freshness, but there were a few absolute standouts that blew me away: The Seared Wagyu / Beef Nigiri: Unbelievably melt-in-your-mouth tender. The torching adds just the right amount of smoky depth without overpowering the rich flavor of the meat. The Salmon: Bright, beautifully cut, and incredibly fresh, topped perfectly to elevate the natural richness of the fish. The Caviar-Topped Nigiri: A total showstopper. The generous pop of savory caviar paired with the perfectly seasoned rice and fish created an incredible texture and flavor profile. read more

My friend and I were visiting NYC and were recommended Hatsu by my roommate. I really enjoyed the service and the quality of the fish was very good. After the initial omakase service is done, you are able to order as many of pieces of certain nigiri. Usually when I go to omakase, I'm never full but I think Hatsu was reasonable in terms of quantity and the quality you're paying for. On top of that, there's "unlimited" sake included which is a fun add! read more

Hatsu Omakase - Toro - Sushi Bars Near Me - New York, New York

After touching down in NYC we took a taxi directly to our dinner reservations at Hatsu! We were afraid that we'd run late due to delays, but the hostess had reassured us that it'll be fine and that they'll reserve our pieces to the side for us) Each piece was crafted with love and laughter. :) After we finished our course we were allowed to order unlimited pieces of fatty tuna, the wagyu, eel, and salmon! Beware though, they charge $5 per piece of uneaten sushi. I kept ordering 1-2 pieces at a time, only because i was already getting full! Oh! They also offered us unlimited sake! A time was HAD! read more

This is one of a handful of AYCE Omakase spots, along with SourAji, which started the whole trend and is easily my least favorite based on sushi and rice quality, my personal preference, Sushi Hayashi, and Toka, which I've heard is good but I haven't been to. The service was very friendly here, and it's slightly loud, which is typical for these spots given how much alcohol everyone drinks. By price point, this spot is obviously more comparable to Hayashi. In my opinion, Hayashi has slightly better appetizers, and I find the 13 pre-AYCE sushi courses are a bit better aside from a few notable exceptions. Regarding the AYCE portion, it depends on your preference. Hayashi serves scallops instead of shrimp, and their AYCE fish doesn't have the toppings like on the main menu. This spot also serves some excellent wagyu as an option, the salmon is comparable, and the fatty tuna is marginally worse than Hayashi. In terms of drinks, they have a few more here, including some fruit sakes, though I've never been the biggest fan of them, and there was one dry sake here that I think was better than anything at Hayashi. Before the 13 sushi courses, they first brought out the appetizers. This consisted of a standard miso soup and a couple of very buttery pieces of king salmon, with a light sauce I think was homemade ponzu, but I'm not positive. For the actual courses, I took notes for once because of the sheer number of them, but some might be wrong. I also didn't note any of the toppings in my notes, but I'm pretty positive about most of them. 1- Tsukiji/Seabass 2- Sawara/Spanish Mackerel topped with fried onion 3- Tai/Snapper with chili oil 4- Sake/Salmon with yuzu kosho 5- Red Shrimp with black caviar 6- Hamachi/Japanese Amberjack 7- Uni 8- Masunosuke/King Salmon, topped with foie gras and torched before being topped with truffle 9- Akami/Red Tuna with tomato jam 10- Otoro/Fatty tuna with caviar dusted with gold 11- Wagyu 12- Unagi with sesame seeds 13- Temaki with grounded toro, shiso, and ikura Of the list above, some ideas were genius, such as the akami with tomato jam and the snapper with chili oil, as the oil was lightly spiced enough to highlight the natural fish flavor. The shrimp was pretty good, the wagyu was tasty, and everything else ranged from good to great. My least favorite were probably the uni, but it was still alright. For the AYCE option, the salmon was topped with truffle paste, the otoro with yellow tobiko, the shrimp with the same caviar as on the regular menu, and the wagyu was simply grilled. Of the four, my preference was the otoro, followed by salmon, wagyu, and shrimp, but all were good. They also gave us a piece of Mochi Ice Cream to end, which was tasty as always. While I slightly prefer Hayashi, I would still strongly recommend both. Will go back when I'm in the mood to gorge on sushi. read more

THE MOST AMAZING AYCE OMAKASE!! Firstly our server Joanna was so sweet and made sure our glasses were always full! The sushi chef was also super kind! There was a 13 course omakase, with unlimited miso soup, a variety of different sakes and beers and then 2 rounds of AYCE (including salmon, yellowtail, wagyu and fatty tuna). Literally the most amazing experience! The server made sure we were full and all the fish were super fresh! Highly recommend for your next omakase experience! read more

I have tried a ton of omakase spots lately and this one might actually be my favorite one!! The price point is beautiful for the quality and quantity you get. I've had other AYCE spots but this one is insanely good pieces for every AYCE option. The salmon was insanely buttery, the otoro was perfectly torched, the yellowtail was so well balanced (I usually do not like yellow tail), and the waygu was perfectly salted and torched. Every piece in the 13 course was just as good as the next!! Usually salmon is not my favorite but the salmon here is insane ... the service here was also top notch! The chef was so quick to serve the food and so sweet! The female server was also insanely quick to pass drinks around and made sure no one's cups or ginger was empty!! Super lovely people all around. The actually restaurant is a little small but it's cozy and I prefer to have an intimate dinner experience honestly. Highly highly recommend. For the AYCE portion it is a little different from other AYCE places I've tried. I love how they do two rounds: first round you get to pick however many pieces you want of salmon, otoro, yellow tail, and last wagyu (in that order), second round you get to pick however many pieces of each one you've had previously all in one go. I personally did small amounts first because I wasn't sure if I would enjoy the AYCE pieces and then once I knew what I liked I got everything in one go at the end. I left super full and satisfied! read more

Ambiance - modern, high top table for omakase, and they also offer tables for diners not doing omakase; note: don't arrive too early unless you want to wait outside in the cold Service - staff was super nice, refilled our water & sake often, omakase experience felt a little rushed (pieces came out super quickly) Food - for $95 (13 courses + unlimited sake/mochi + AYCE select pieces) it was worth the experience read more

We came here after hearing about the place via social media and all the hype surrounding it. So we booked a reservation for an early Saturday night dinner to give it a try. Our Omakase experience did not disappoint and lived up to the hype. All the sushi that we were offered for the Omakase was delicious and all the sushi that you could appropriximately eat was fresh and delicious. The experience itself felt almost like a small spectacle as you witnessed the sushi being made in front of you in a small, intimate environment the sat about 20 people or so in the space. And plus there was a lububu giveaway going on. The mochi for dessert was a nice way to cap off the meal. The service was very attentive and top notch. The timing of each dish and section of the Omakase was very precise and on point. Kudos to their team for managing such a production in that manner. read more

If it wasn't AYCE and drink, I would rate this 4 stars. The pieces were fresh but on the smaller end. The way AYCE works is you get individual rounds of the each fish (salmon, fatty tuna, yellowtail and wagyu) and then another round where you can order everything at once. They recommend that you order more in the first round as you have more time to eat since you can stay longer than 1.5 hours. My favorite for the normal course was the scallop and my favorite for the AYCE eat portion was the fatty tuna. The service was really nice. They were quick with the sake refills. The bar seated 11 people and they have two 4-top tables in the side. They also had a labubu raffle which adds to the fun. For birthdays, they provide a cheesecake slice. Overall, I would come back! read more

I thought the omakase quality of the fish was better than the AYCE by a noticeable amount and that it was better than similar spots like Toka chef Kitchen. However, the AYCE fish quality at Toka was a lot better, so it's an odd comparison. I'm not sure I'd come here just for the AYCE, the quality was better for the AYCE portion at Toka. The best piece Hatsu offered was the sablefish. It's a great value sushi spot, but still didn't quite live up to the hype. It was nice that they offered unlimited sake, tea or soda as part of the meal and that their service was great about refills and how smoothly they served everyone. read more

Amazing value AYCE omakase place where you just can't go wrong. The toro is not as good as other places but the salmon is their specialty - and as a salmon connoisseur, I absolutely loved it. Ambiance was super homely and staff was incredibly nice, always making sure you have enough beer or sake on hand. If you win one of those overpriced Labubus that they raffle off, your dinner is basically free! read more

It's up there for the best Omakase and all you can eat sushi + sake + mochi dessert Omakase was excellent - tuna + foie gras + truffle like come on. Fatty tuna and other pieces were delicious. AYCE portion. You get two chances to order. First round you get to select how many pieces you want per round. Second round you place all your order at once. The sushi pieces are a bit smaller, but everything was delicious. My favorite was the tuna and wagyu. Salmon was good. My friends loved the shrimp but not my favorite. Overall would strongly recommend. Quality and service were fantastic. read more

13-course omakase and then two rounds of AYCE (from three different types of nigiri) AND unlimited drinks. Definitely worth it if you're a big eater or in a relationship with one. The 13-course omakase itself was great and they didn't skimp on the quality. The rice to fish ratio was good. For the AYCE portion, the nigiri sizes are smaller, but they don't pile on the rice which I appreciate. I also like that there are two rounds of the AYCE while other places only have one. The mochi at the end was also good. The sake selection was also impressive: 4-5+ sake and 3 flavored sakes. They also had two different beers and tea. The staff were super friendly and attentive, always making sure we don't have an empty glass. Luckily, there was only a few of us for our seating (first seating), but the seating after looked full. read more

Hatsu's $95 experience starts with 13 course omakase, then all-you-can-drink sake + 4 rounds all-you-can-eat salmon, fatty tuna, shrimp, wagyu nigiri, then unlimited mochi. The place is small and you sit around the counter which I'm estimating fits around 10 or fewer people. I liked the 13-course omakase, which included sea bream, scallop, uni, and salmon with foie gras. Then at the end, they let you order as many extra pieces as you want, but only from four options: salmon, fatty tuna, shrimp, and A5 wagyu. I thought we'd get to pick from the same variety we had in the 13 courses, but it was just those four. The flavor on those were a little different from the first round, but not bad. Overall, service was solid, food was good - it just wasn't the type of "all you can eat" that I had imagined. Plus, you also get a free raffle ticket for their Labubu drawing at the end of the meal. read more

This was a very fun experience! The waitress and the chef were so fun to talk to. I left very full, which is hard for omakase. I feel like I got my money's worth with the ayce omakase. After the initial omakase, we were allowed to choose how many pieces of salmon, fatty tuna, sweet shrimp, and A5 wagyu nigiri pieces. I would definitely go back! read more

You get what you pay for! So for under $100 (before tax and tip) you're getting a basic and average quality omakase. The fish was good, but definitely not top-tier in quality. The portions were good, and the flavors of the omakase pieces were not anything new or that I haven't had in other places. But, for value, this is it! You will NOT leave hungry. You get 13 pieces omakase to start, then two rounds of AYCE selection of 4 different pieces. We got to pick from salmon, yellowtail, fatty tuna, and Wagyu. Plus there was AYCE dessert, and endless sake or beer! Very good value for an omakase craving, just don't expect fish freshly flown from Japan and Kosaka level of service and ambiance! You're also in and out of there in about 80-90 min so this is a quick paced meal! Overall satisfying, but not out of this world omakase. I wouldn't expect that for $100! read more

Food: This is an AYCE omakase restaurant for $95 per person. You have 90 minutes for the meal. The AYCE meal includes a 13-piece omakase, unlimited sake and drinks, and AYCE sushi pieces from a selection of four decided by the sushi chef (when we went, it was wagyu, salmon, medium fatty tuna, and raw shrimp). The experience was fun and the sushi was excellent. The AYCE pieces do get smaller and the quality is good but not the same as the first 13 pieces you get. Overall, it's a great value for AYCE omakase. They also do a raffle for a Labubu at the end of the meal with everyone dining there. Service: Service was excellent. There is one sushi chef and one server in the restaurant. They are both very attentive and friendly. Ambiance: The sushi bar has ten seats and they also have two small tables on the side. The place isn't big and the decor is interesting - the place is filled with cute plushies and figurines. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant if you like sushi and AYCE places. read more

Excellent value AYCE omakase that combines a great 'normal' omakase experience with a fun all-you-can-eat section. I appreciated the fact that they were very consumer-friendly compared to other AYCE places where you felt rushed or 'tricked'. For example, unlike other SourAJI they offer a 'last-call' where you can place a final order after they rotate between salmon, toro and wagyu. I felt that the salmon was the best-tasting of the three and noted that the toro is on the medium-fatty side so not quite as decadent as one might expect. I liked that the staff was friendly and upbeat, quick to pour drinks (note unlimited sake) and heap endless amounts of free mochi. Vibe is friendly and welcoming though they tend to run 5-10 minutes late in between sessions. Only downside was that I didn't win a Labubu! read more

Amazing deal! The pieces were a tad smaller than what I've had at other omakase places BUT you can eat your fill of the fatty tuna, wagyu, salmon. PLUS you have sake and mochi ice cream as part of the AYCE. My favorites were the scallop and shrimp pieces. The peach sake was absolutely delicious. The dessert I think we can do without. They weren't particularly good. Nice to include in the AYCE and kinda disappointing to end on. Service was quick! Staff members were attentive. Constantly refilling our water and offering other drinks. Very clean and simple appearance. Also plenty of bright lighting which is a nice change from the usual dimmed lights at restaurants. Got plenty of pics thanks to that. read more

Hands down one of my favorite omakase experiences in the city! I came to Hatsu Ace Omakase & Sake with a group of friends and we loved every minute of it. The 16-course omakase was beautifully paced and featured such high-quality cuts -- every bite was super fresh and flavorful. After the main courses, we got two additional rounds to pick extra pieces -- fatty tuna, salmon, shrimp, and wagyu. My favorites were shrimp and of course uni. The Ace sake was a standout and paired so well with the meal. They also had a great drink selection overall, which made the whole experience feel even more elevated. The vibe of the place is cozy and homey, with a really clean and aesthetic setup. It's a smaller spot, which made the experience feel more intimate, and the chefs and staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable -- they'll chat with you and answer any questions you have. You can tell they really care about what they're serving. And the price?? $95 per person, plus they were running a 15% discount when we went -- such a good deal for the quality and variety. All my friends raved about it and we're already planning to make this an annual tradition. Highly recommend! read more

Food (5/5): Wow absolutely awesome Omakase experience and delicious cuts. Really like the scallop, seared salmon, and toro. All the cuts were fresh. After the main Omakase you get an AYCE experience with the salmon, toro, Wagyu, and shrimp. I probably had around 50+ extra cuts of those. Absolutely awesome although you might feel a bit sick after all that fatty fish and meat lol. Afterwards we got dessert of mochi. Service (5/5): Super friendly waitress who chatted with us during the experience and was super helpful refilling our sake which was also unlimited. Really enjoyed the lychee and yuzu flavored ones. Ambiance (4/5): Cute shop with intimate seating. Not the most well decorated but gets the job done and looks like a serious sushi place. read more

Overall: B // 4 stars Hatsu is a newer establishment that follows the latest trend of a classic nyc sub-100 dollar omakase, paired with an AYCE course at the end for select fish, as well as AYCD sake, and AYCE dessert, which seems to be Hatsu-specific. Their regular omakase portion has spotlights (namely the salmon, akami, and wagyu), but there were other pieces that seemed more neglected on the quality control side (shrimp, uni). For the AYCE portion, I enjoyed that they added flavor pairings with each cut so it wasn't just soy and wasabi, but I felt like the fish quality was noticeably worse. It is nice that they offer multiple rounds for the AYCE so you can better gauge how much you can eat though. All in all, the meal was decent, but there are better AYCE Omakase at the same price point with higher mean and lower variance in quality. (i) Crab and Ikura - a light and refreshing starter that speaks to the ingredients itself without much additional seasoning (ii) Miso Soup - standard soup that adds warmth and comfort (iii) Madai - the citrus squeeze paired with the torching adds a fragrant smokiness but the fish needs salt (iv) Kanpachi - paired with crispy onion, which adds a mild zing and a tender crispiness (v) Sawara - the spanish mackarel has a natural briny smokiness, but I would've liked to see the paired ginger flavors more pronounced (vi) Gindara - one of my more preferred pieces as I like the pleasant acidity coming through the yuzu oil and kosho, though a bit light (vii) Shrimp - does come off a little slimy, which may need more washing; the tobiko pairs beautifully with a tender pop (viii) Scallop - almost a standardized pairing exclusive to nyc now, the charcoal salt adds a beautiful color diff and a pleasant saline burst; the knifework is well done to give the scallop added texture (ix) Uni - this sea urchin does not come off as metallic unfresh, but it is not pleasanty sweet; the pickled wasabi did give it a bit of a new life though (x) Salmon - one of the more luxorious pieces on the menu, featuring foie gras and white truffle; i enjoyed the flavoral complexity built from the combination and the aburi style nigiri (xi) Akami - this unassuming piece is actually quite pleasant with a pleasant sweetnees coming from that tomato jam; this seems to be a more original pairing, and it works well! (xii) Otoro - luxorious piece with caviar and gold; the fattiness is pleasant but is desperately missing flavor (xiii) Wagyu - enjoy the truffle forward flavors coming from the oils and salt, helping build a layer of earthy complexity (xiv) Unagi - the sesame flavor actually comes through to give it a pleasant nutty undertone (xv) Handroll - unfortunately, this lacks in both rice and flavor; its just unsalted tuna and sweet pickled radish (xvi) AYCE Salmon - the salmon is discolored in a fainted orange, so it was good that they torched it; the truffle paste helps give it some depth, but unfortunately is not appealing when piped as such in bulk (xvii) AYCE Akami - this tuna also looks unpleasantly discolored, but the tobiko pairing otherwise would've been nice to add a textural contrast; skippable tbh (xviii) AYCE Otoro - likely the most premium of the cuts in the AYCE, which I loaded up on; torched and paired with tobiko, I think this one was the best of the AYCE options (xix) AYCE Wagyu - another one worth loading up on, with nice seasoning, and a balance between torched char and tenderness coming from the fat of the wagyu (xx) AYCE Mochi - it's great that the dessert is also included in the AYCE; this is your standard mochi ice cream which is refreshing and pleasant (xxi) AYCD Sake - they offer a few fruit flavors of sake with generous pours; I found the alc to not be of the greatest quality and a bit artificial, but it does taste fruit-forward and low alc Food: E Presentation: E Price: E Atmosphere: E Service: +1 Menu: +1 Overall: 4 stars Insta/Yelp/Beli/TikTok: @amei_eats read more

A more peaceful alternative then the party vibe of SourAji. They allow yellowtail, toro, sweet shrimp, salmon, and wagyu sushi pieces unlimited at the end of the 13 course. Unlimited sake also comes with the meal. If you value quality and have a big appetite you cannot go wrong here. I honestly cannot find a better sushi spot for a big eater like myself for the price and quality anywhere in the country. read more

This is probably one of the best omakase places I have been too. Great value for money. All the bites of the course were great and after you are done they will do two rounds of all you can eat. Alcohol is included in the price and it is also all you can drink which I again is good value. They do a raffle of a Labubu at the end which is super cute. Service was great because there is reserve only so once you sit down you eat almost immediately. Servers were great. The place is small so it's always easy to get their attention and there was always fast with whatever you ask for. read more

So far one of the best AYCE omakase I've been to in manhattan for its price. The fish are very fresh, the rice/fish ratio is good. After the normal omakase courses you can order two rounds of refills from toro, salmon, Wagyu and sweet shrimp. The quality is also very good for free refill expect the Wagyu size is smaller, like half the size from normal omakase course. I think in the end I had about 30 pieces nigiri in total which really gets money back. Service is good and quick, but doesn't feel rushed. The place is small make sure you make reservation ahead of time. read more

Hatsu is a budget-friendly AYCE omakase in East Village. For about 90 minutes, after your initial 13-course omakase that is pretty reasonably priced, you can order extra fatty tuna, wagyu, salmon, etc. as much as you want until you pretty much explode. This also includes sake all night! The place is very laid back and casual, and the staff here are pretty friendly and had a great sense of humor.

My friends and I decided to check out the AYCE sushi here, priced at $99pp. The omakase includes 13 pieces of nigiri and one appetizer to start. The miso soup was surprisingly good and comforting. I will say the nigiri pieces were on the smaller side, but the quality was slightly better than what I've had at SourAji. I didn't realize the restaurant was BYOB, but they do offer a variety of sake. Once you're done with the omakase course, you're allowed to have two additional rounds of salmon, lean tuna, toro, and Wagyu. I went all in with 6 pieces of toro and 18 pieces of wagyu. The wagyu was good but a bit on the tough. :/ Overall, it was a good experience. The service was great, both the servers and the chef were incredibly friendly and welcoming. read more

I had an amaaazing time and dare I say better than souraji? There is a 13 course Omakase before the unlimited portion. You get to choose from unlimited wagyu, fatty tuna, salmon, and shrimp. What I appreciate is they allow you multiple rounds of unlimited ordering so if you don't get enough the first time, you still have a chance the second time. At souraji, once you order your unlimited fish, there is no opportunity to order more of the same fish. It took the pressure off dinner. The fish quality was great. My favorites were the fatty tuna and the torched Wagyu. The weight staff was attentive, and I never had an empty cup. I overall had a great experience. read more

I came when they were offering a discount for all reservations made this month. It was a nice incentive to come and visit for the first time! They give you 1.5 hrs to serve you the first 14 courses and then let you choose between a select 4 sushi at the end of the course to have unlimited (also, unlimited sake!). All they ask is for you to not waste! Loved the idea and concept. Every piece was delicious and fresh! The chef was very nice and super observant of all of us. He made sure that our cups were always filled with sake and made sure we always had a piece of sushi on our plate. The service was excellent and very friendly! We felt very comfortable during the whole visit. I really liked the unlimited sushi as well. My favorite was the scallop and truffle salmon! Ambiance was nice, but a little small with very limited seating. Definitely recommend to anyone thinking about trying this place out! It's definitely worth it imo (especially with the unlimited sake!). read more

We had our favorite meal this past trip at Hatsu Omakase. You start with 13 courses of nigiri, along with a few small bites. My favorites out of these courses were the salmon and foie gras, seared chutoro, and unagi. The best part was the AYCE portion of the meal, where I ordered quite a few pieces of chutoro and wagyu. The service here was fantastic, with our sake cups constantly being filled with quite a bit of variety for their AYCD menu. Shoutout to Amy for the warm hospitality. It's also pretty awesome to see the chefs in action, with so much focus and experience. Hatsu is the best. You get a great meal and a pregame wrapped up in one. I will come here every time I'm back in NYC. read more

Hatsu is one of the best omakases I have tried, and I have been to Japan. The sushi is absolutely delicious. The service is amazing. The chefs are very friendly. This was an AYCE eat and drink. There is a prefixed 13 course sushi menu, and after that they open it to all you can eat based on four items: salmon, yellowtail, Wagyu and tuna. They also have a wide selection of beer and sake. I was able to try about five different sakes. The waitress did not leave me dry for more than 15 seconds. It was great! Lastly, there was a LaBuBu raffle during dinner for all attendees. Even though I do not collect LaBuBus, I thought it was a fun activity and something to look forward to towards the end of the night. Next time I am in NYC, I would love to visit again. read more
