Right, so I'm walking around this crazy city of Manhattan and im usually around or just around Central Park. So I'm on 44th Street and I end up at this joint called Sen Sakana. They say it's "Kosher Nikkei Cuisine." Nikkei, right? It's Japanese and Peruvian I think. Just the thought makes you feel like you've got a window open, looking out upon two different countries, one on each side, it's that different. The whole thing is fusion, but it's not phony. Not at all. ​You should have seen the edamame, perfectly salted and green, not all soggy and gray like they make them in most places. The chawanmushi they served was crazy. Smooth as anything. It was in this cute little glass jar, which is kind of a childish thing to do, but it was actually pretty special. It had some kind of crazy salmon roe, ikura, floating on top, and those salty little orange balls just pop in your mouth and taste like the actual ocean. I swear. It really did. ​Then they bring out some steak. It looked just plain, you know? But it was actually A5 Wagyu. If you know anything about beef, that's as high as it gets. And the sauce? The menu said Huuancaína. That's Peruvian. So it's this crazy fancy Japanese steak dipped in this spicy, cheesy Peruvian sauce. It makes me want to scream, it's so unexpected, but it works. It really does. It was the least phony steak I've ever had. ​The Sen Sakana Omakase was something else, though. The chef, this Japanese guy who looked about as old as my grandfather, which made you know he was serious brings out twelve pieces of nigiri and this huge spicy tuna handroll. The fish was so cold and fresh and clean. The octopus, that's some crazy tentacle stuff, was chewy but not too chewy. The whole time, I was just eating this fish and watching all the phonies walk by outside on 44th Street. It almost makes you want to cry. It was about as close to real as anything I've ever experienced. ​You should have seen the place. The lights were sort of dim and yellow, and the wood was all clean and sleek, not all cluttered and phony. It felt almost like you were outside. If you have to eat at a special place, you should eat at Sen Sakana. The food is good, it's not phony, and you can just watch all the morons outside and not have to talk to them. It almost makes you happy. read more

My sister is allergic to shellfish but wanted to try sushi so I found her a kosher sushi restaurant. The restaurant is pretty spacious and the service was very good. We started with mushroom and truffle empanadas and then had the sushi rolls - everything was fresh and delicious. One downside was the condition of the ladies room - to put it nicely it was disgusting. My sister changed her mind about using it after going inside. Other than that I would recommend giving them a try. read more

Sen Sakana - Japanese Near Me - New York, New York

Sen Sakana is both incredible and confusing. It's a fusion of so many foods that I guess it's great you don't have to choose but also can be a bit confusing when crafting a shared table meal. It is nice inside, feels new. Also feels a bit cold with the tablet menus but staff is kind. Drinks are pretty stellar no matter what you choose. It feels like a lot of thought went into the mixology. Food, wow just so many options to choose your own adventure. The sushi pizza was certainly odd but great! The rolls we tried were all delicious and the spicy tuna crispy rice was amazing. The tuna tartare was a bit odd with such large rice cakes and different than expected but still pretty good. Would recommend as a family style meal where u can try a lot of different items. It's pretty pricey and while the food is good it's certainly not the best I've had for the price. Still a great convenient spot that is not too hard to get a res at. read more

This lunch was supposed to be a congratulations on your promotion lunch for my senior, but it also turned into a good bye lunch for myself. We had someone on the team that was kosher so we had to find a kosher place that can also accommodate 5 ppl. This place is a kosher Peruvian asian place. Very interesting. The price point is a bit high so I would go for a work lunch and have someone expense it. My favorite part about this place is that there was someone walking by with a tray of cookies fresh out of the oven. Thought he was just moving product, but he walked around and offered it to all of us as a dessert on the house. The sushi was good quality and I gobbled my sushi up. I have yet to get the Peruvian part aside from the pisco drink I got with my lunch. For now, four stars and will revisit. read more

A nice and very expensive kosher restaurant in Midtown Manhattan. I recently went here with a friend for a special occasion while in transit. Sen Sakana had absolutely outstanding service, some of the best I've seen in a while. When we arrived for our reservation, we were able to coat check our bags and were seated immediately. It seemed that each server was only assigned one table, which meant that we got immediate service whenever we needed something. Our dishes came out quickly and we were able to finish our dinner in well under an hour. The ambiance was dim red lighting and white tablecloths, and Sen Sakana invited fancier dressing. Even for a Midtown Manhattan upscale kosher restaurant, Sen Sakana is extremely expensive, especially when you factor in portion sizes. Sen Sakana does not list prices on its website-my friend and I had no idea how much things cost until we arrived. Most appetizers cost between $15-30 and entrees between $45-$120. With tax and tip, expect to pay minimum $60-$120 per person. My friend and I decided to split two appetizers and one main and my friend also got miso soup. At the price points, I expect the food to be outstanding. While the food was innovative, it was good but not incredible. The beef dumplings were good, but could have used more sauce than a tiny squirt bottle of soy sauce. The beef empanadas were delicious but small and only came with two empanadas. I tried the miso soup as well and it needed more flavor. My friend and I split the Quinoa Poached Egg Rice for our main dish and it needed more meat, some more egg, and more quinoa. I would recommend Sen Sakana if you are looking for a very upscale kosher restaurant for an extremely special occasion or for a big night on Broadway near Times Square; otherwise, there are other fancy and/or kosher restaurants in the area that are less expensive for similar or better quality. read more

A kosher Asian restaurant is a bit of a head scratcher, past the yarmulke, but the food was very good, as long as you're not jonesing for shrimp or scallops. The fish was very fresh. Some nice fusion dishes that jump into Latin America, like the ceviche with yuzu, shiso and Peruvian concha (toasted corn) Bar was good. We had a 101 on how to turn Sazerac rye into a sazerac cocktail. Service was above average. Great host stand. read more

I went to Sen Sakana for a networking event. The hosts needed a kosher menu. Although I respect faith based dietary restrictions, because that is the right thing to do, I myself am not similarly constrained. That means, however, that my recommendation is all that much stronger: I would say even if you did not care one bit whether the meal had treif, you would be satisified at this establishment. I am curious enough about the world, I said to my wife we should return to sample what they serve. I hope they flourish, because kosher Japanese food that is good Japanese food is not common. The specific version of Japanese cuisine is that from Peru. It is a result of Japanese migration to Peru (as in Alberto Fujimori). Note this is high end. It is not a neighborhood place. Consider this brief review a placeholder. I will revise once I am back to take in more of the offerings. read more

"Sen Sakana" fails to deliver in a somewhat predictable manner: absurd prices for an overhyped kosher fusion restaurant. In a highly desirable area, "Sen Sakana" boasts luxury while holding on to the idea excellence (with the obvious ceiling). The quality of the sushi was perfectly average. Extremely unimpressed. Customer service not interested in actual customer service-- simple requests either overlooked or done with a slight attitude. A perfect example of once in, never again. 4/10 read more

Decent Kosher spot, but nothing to write home about. Prices are absurd for the quality you get. I know Kosher restaurants are expensive, but usually they make up for it in superb quality and taste. Sen, not so much. The best items were the edamame with toasted corn, the tuna/salmon tar tar tacos and the special rolls. Where Sen fell flat was with the ribeye soba. Priced almost at $100, this was basically a standard ribeye on a bed of ramen noodles. The fresh veggies were yummy, but this was a big miss and unfortunately, the most expensive item. Good but not great! read more

Sen Sakana had been on my list for a very long time since the idea of Nikkei (Japanese-Peruvian) cuisine was very intriguing. I watched a show nearby and walked in with a friend; no reservations were needed because it was very empty on a Sunday evening. Service was polite but the server didn't quite understand what I asked and I noticed he didn't come by very frequently because I had to wait quite a while before I could order my drink. My friend and I ended up paying about $150 each for our food (2 appetizers, 2 entrees, 1 sushi roll, dessert, and 2 mocktails). I generally am not dropping over $100pp for a meal unless it's very good; unfortunately, this was a hugely mixed bag and I found it very hard to justify the prices. Maybe they have to pay a lot of rent for their real estate? + Nikkei ceviche ($26) - 10/10 - This was an excellent ceviche; the salmon was tender, very well flavored, and bright with the yuzu and shiso. I was impressed by this and loved the way it tasted. Every component was excellent. The only issue is that this is a tiny amount of ceviche for the price, especially when none of these ingredients are that expensive. + Mushroom empanada ($16) - 9/10 - These were very good; the skin was flaky and the filling was flavorful. The empanadas were shockingly small considering that they're $8 a piece and there was less than 2 tbsp of chopped mushroom in each. Yes, the skin was good, but am I paying $8 for 3 bites of puff pastry and mushroom? + Chicha morada ($12) - 8/10 - This was a solid drink; it reminded me of plum and was not very sweet. For a mocktail, this is about what I expect price-wise. The waiter told me this was cooked fruit, including pineapple; when I asked if this was mostly fruit or liquid, he was very confused and said fruit. My friend ended up ordering it and it was all liquid, so I got one too. + Maguto tuna tartare ($25) - 8/10 - It is honestly shocking to me that each piece of sushi is $5 for tuna, aji limo, and tomato salsa. The ingredients were very interesting and I've never had anything like this before, but again, very inexpensive ingredients. I'm glad I got this though because I can definitely make this myself. + Lomo saltado ($57) - 4/10 - This was a very disappointing lomo saltado, and incredibly so for the price. The steak was not tender and very lightly flavored. There was barely any sauce, so I'm not sure what I was supposed to do with the rice. The potatoes looked like they'd be crispy but they were not. I've had a much better one at Llama Inn (admittedly more expensive but much tastier and much larger). This portion was laughably small. + Poached egg quinoa fried rice with beef spare rib ($48) - 2/10 - This was so bad that I mainly kept eating it to check "Is it really this bad?" I almost spat out my first bite of rice because it tasted rancid. I've had aji amarillo before and it did not taste rancid. The beef was actually much more tender and tastier than the steak in the lomo saltado, but also much saltier; I had to eat it with the rice. Surprisingly it canceled out the rancid flavor so that the rice was edible, but I still didn't enjoy it. The poached egg part was just a poached egg on the side; the title made me think that the poached egg would be integrated into the rice and I was very intrigued by the idea. The reality was just a very subpar fried rice with egg cooked separately. There was no wok hei (maybe they don't employ that technique in Peru?) and the rice was not interesting at all except for the rancid flavor (which is interesting in a bad way). + Churros with hot chocolate ($18) - 8/10 - The churros are good. The hot chocolate is fine, if quite sweet. It's definitely not a dip because it's a drink, and it makes the churro lose its crunchiness. Sure it's a crunchy good churro, but I was disappointed that there was nothing else. For $18, I'm definitely expecting more. One of my favorite restaurants, Xixa, has equally excellent churros (if not better since they are matcha flavored - is that not Nikkei??) with passionfruit and chocolate dipping sauces that are thick and keep the churro crunchy. They also do not cost $18. The meal started off promisingly, but the mains were major disappointments. I was initially game to spend if this meal was going to be spectacular, but it very much did not hit the mark. I'm glad I tried it since it's been on my list and now I know what the pretty good appetizers taste like. I do think the dishes are very creative and inspiring, but I'd rather attempt these myself at home. read more

I've walked this spot a few times and it really intrigued me I wanted to see what it had to offer. For starters, your menu is an iPad, which a tech savvy guy like myself thinks is pretty futuristic . Love it. The restaurant is completely KOSHER CERTIFIED and a fusion Japanese & Peruvian cuisines. As well as if I may point out my first time being at one. The food was delicious & rich with flavor. I was a party of two. So we shared a bunch of appetizers and cocktails which I will list in details below (with pics of course !) Food: Picture # 1 - Nauruto (no rice Nikkei Maki) Pic #2 Japanese Cucumber & Wild Mushroom & VEGAN "cheddar" empanadas Pic #3 - CEVICHE NIKKEI, Beef Dumplings & Chicken Wings Cocktails: Pic # 4 - Warm Me Up Pic # 5 - OAXACAN OLD FASHIONED The bartender Sergio was really spot on with his recommendations!

I've never met a kosher Japanese Peruvian person before, but apparently, there is a market for them here, and I'm glad it's here. Service was prompt, attentive, and accurate. It was also very friendly and welcoming. I had the Smoky edamame to start and the toro roll and maguro roll. They were very good. They also have an excellent curated sake selection. I had the summer snow, which is my favorite, and not easy to find. I'd definitely come back and also try them for lunch. . Remember to tip well. read more

I love fusion cuisine, and this kosher Japanese-Peruvian restaurant was absolutely delightful. I loved the innovative cocktails, and the sexy ambiance. The dim and red lighting made everything super intimate and was such a vibe. The service was amazing, and every one was super attentive. For the food, the ceviches were a MUST order. I also loved their miso eggplant, as well as beef cube stirfry. They also have a huge sushi selection, which is also a must order. The flavors of all the dishes were so unique, and the presentation was immaculate. I finished off with a yummy strawberry Oreo cake. Can't wait to be back! read more

Nice calm atmosphere for a Japanese lunch. They use one of those annoying ipad menus, so not being able to synthesize data as I usually do I ended up ordering a very expensive type of chicken and rice entree which could have fed three people. I upgraded it to a lunch special though so for $10 extra bucks I got soup, salad, and marinated tofu. read more

Regrettably, I must express my disappointment with my recent dining experience. Having traveled extensively, I can confidently say that the food served was subpar. Unfortunately, it was inedible, and to compound matters, the manager appeared unconcerned by our dissatisfaction, which led us to return our meals. No gesture of goodwill, such as a complimentary dessert, was offered to rectify the situation. The prices were exorbitant, bordering on price gouging, and the cuisine was overly salty and unappetizing. As someone who adheres to a kosher diet, I will likely be preparing more meals at home in the future.as the limited amount of kosher options that are good are becoming increasingly scarce. The Kosher Chinese on 46th street I think ? Would be better . These guys want 57$ for a bowl of ramen noodles and some beef . Come on ? Get a grip ! read more

I have been wanting to try this fusion restaurant for a long time, back then it was advertised as non-tipping, although some old info on its website still says so, the menu and the check showed that this restaurant is no longer non-tipping. The waitress lady looked disinterested in doing her job, which also confused me that maybe she wasn't expecting tips? The restaurant uses iPad for menu, I guess it's fancy but the screen with wiped watermark (?) and other people's fingerprints (?) are gross.. A dried compressed hand towel was provided for each customer, but the water wasn't even hot, is this also part of the fusion or it should be hot in the Japanese way? Sesame crusted tuna tiradito (~$27), I usually like sour flavor and found the flavor of this appetizer dish is special and interesting. But for an appetizer, it's a bit pricey. The presentation of this dish could also be improved, it was not easy to pick up tuna along with avacado and tomatoes with the pointy chopsticks provided. Nigiri Plate ($55), I like that it presented the fish in both the traditional way and the fusion way. Again, the service made me wonder if tip wasn't expected, when the dish was served, no explanation was provided on what's what. Some of the pieces were easier to distinguish but some weren't. Anyway, finally tried the restaurant and can cross it off my list. I don't plan to come back. For the same price range, other Japanese restaurants in the area provide better value and better service. read more

Came here for Christmas Eve dinner without a reservation and was seated right away. Conveniently located close to grand central station and lots of seating inside the restaurant. If you check in on yelp, Buy $30 worth and you get a free standard cocktail. If you're a party of 2 and both check and spend $60+, you get 2 standard cocktails free. We got the pisco sour and the Manhattan and both were delicious. The chirashi bowl was just as yummy as beautiful to look at. I love the sushi rice at the bottom! My sister said Japanese-Peruvian fusions are best because of the sauces and she's not wrong! The Sexy sana had this white sauce at the bottom of the plate that was especially delicious. The Nikkei potato salad was also pretty delicious for an appetizer. The smoothness of the potatoes mixed with the crunch of the cucumber made for a pleasant bite. All the fish tasted fresh to us too. For dessert we got the waffle and the chocolate tiramisu with green tea ice cream -- I would recommend both. It's hard to choose once since they were both very different so it depends on your taste preference. The tiramisu didn't really have any espresso notes, but the chocolate was almost like a ganache. The waffle came out slightly crispy which was delicious. Both had these crunchy mini balls which gave the dish much more dimension - loved it. read more

When my friend suggested this Japanese Peruvian Fusion and kosher restaurant, I figured I had to try it because I was interested in the concept. It was a busy Thursday night so making a reservation definitely helps. We were quickly seated and given menus, which were on iPads. Opted for the only warm sake which was about $16 for a carafe. For an appetizer we ordered the beef skewers, which came with chimichurri sauce and were so delicious. For my entree, I ordered the miso braised short ribs with potato and broccolini. My friend ordered the beef yaki soba. Both dishes were great. The short ribs were very tender and flavorful. Pros: interesting fusion/concept, presentation, and service Cons: seating feels congested and tables are very close together, price (more expensive food items than other places with similar quality), and needs more menu variety (especially the dessert options). read more

I came here for a business lunch. The lighting was quite dim and may be better suited for dinner but not as much for lunch. Instead of paper menus, they have tablets for each individual which was really cool and I haven't seen before. The lunch specials were not clear from the menu. I only knew they existed for main entrees and sushi because I dug around on Yelp and online before going. The server wasn't that great. She mostly mumbled and was not good at explaining things when we asked questions. The lunch set came with one roll of sushi, miso soup, salad, and tofu. The miso soup and salad were really good. The sushi was okay. I got a rainbow roll which came with 8 pieces but the rice was kind of hard. Also, the wasabi was weird and clumpy and did not look fresh at all. read more

Good, but not great -- the definition of a 3.5 star review in my opinion, which is what i would have given here if i could. But had to choose between 3 and 4 and given 4 stars in my book is a great restaurant, which this was not, I had to lean to 3 stars. The concept here is fusion of Peruvian and Japanese which I admire. And there are some nice marriages of flavors to be found between these 2 cuisines, believe it or not. But simply put, the food just wasn't excellent, though it was definitely solidly good. We started with the fried rice which was a cross between Peruvian and more traditional Asian fried rice. Nothing about it particularly stood out and there were a few flavors and textures i didn't quite care for. We then had a few rolls of sushi and a few pieces as well. The fish was all fresh and nicely executed, but again, the flavors were slightly unfavorable to me. Maybe it's just my personal preference, but i prefer more traditional maki rolls and the Peruvian influence in the sushi rolls doesn't quite work for me. The service was just okay; there were times we were left alone for quite some time and could've used a waiter. The ambiance is okay, but for a Peruvian meets Japanese concept, and there's a lot more imagination that could've gone into the space itself, assuming that was of interest. All in all, it was the type of meal that i wasn't upset about any particular component, and it worked for the lunch meeting I had, but it's not a place I'd return to or really recommend to others. But if you're somebody who appreciates the blend of South American and Japanese flavors perhaps more so than myself, you May have a different opinion! read more

I have mixed feelings about this restaurant. Needed last minute dinner reservations. I arrived on time, but my partner was running behind. Fortunately, they sat me early so I had a drink ordered by the time my partner arrived. Food is Nikkei cuisine (Japanese Peruvian). It was restaurant week so they had a very reasonable prix Fixe menu (soup, appetizer, main dish & dessert for $49). The food was good and I would give closer to a 4. Enjoyed the Japanese chicken curry empanada and sushi maki combo of spicy tuna and negihama. The Lucuma ice cream was something I haven't tried before. So why 3 stars? They brought out the wrong item for entree for partner (they had placed order wrong, but we couldn't change if given we were pressed for time). Then, I had warned them that we were pressed for time, but service dropped off and we had to keep reminding them. We had to ask multiple people for our check. Maybe it was an off night, but the food was better than the service. read more

What an amazing Japanese-Peruvian fusion restaurant in midtown New York. First thing you'll notice (as stated on their menu) is that they pay their wait staff above the minimum wage and therefore this is a non-tipping restaurant!

Decor is modern and stylish, very cozy and comfortable. Love all the wood accents. read more

Yerrrrrm two of my favorite cuisines all in one. Everything about the meal was great. We were in a rush between the two Harry Potter shows (10 min walk from the theatre), and we ordered, ate and paid within a little over an hour after warning our waitress of our time constraint. The lomo saltado was comparable to the ones we had in Peru, as well as the ceviche. The sushi was good too. The California roll used real crab, instead of imitation crab, which was a nice surprise. The only thing we I wasn't a huge fan of was the chocolate tres leches, which was super dense like a brownie. It tasted great - just not what you'd expect for that kind of cake. All in all, the food was so tasty that we are making reservations for our next play in a month. The inside was very appealing and modern. Note that it's a non-tipping restaurant so the prices may be a little high at first glance. Also, if you CHECK IN ON YELP, you can get a free cocktail with a $30 purchase, which isn't that hard if you order a main dish. I would recommend a pisco sour, which was perfect to go with our dinner and Peru's signature drink. read more

Was able to book a last minute reservation on a Saturday night for dinner with my husband. (Literally 15 minutes beforehand.) Glad we decided to go! I'm a HUGE fan of Japanese-Peruvian food (Nikkei, as they call it in Peru). In fact, my favorite meal ever was a Japanese-Peruvian restaurant in Barcelona. There were some likes and dislikes about Sen Sakana for me. Overall, I gave it 4 stars because the likes are strong likes, enough for me to come back for them. Atmosphere is really nice, service is on point, make note that it's a non-tipping establishment (so you can factor that into the higher prices). Strong likes (MUST haves): Torched salmon ceviche (really big portion, amazing citrus marinade, one of the best ceviches I've had in the U.S.), Pork belly skewers wrapped over Peruvian cheese, or the mushroom ones (only $7 each and so flavorful). Like: Unitate roll (although I could hardly taste any hotate scallop), good wine and whiskey selection (Japanese flight $25 for 3 big pours) although wines by the glass will run you $15-20+. Matcha ice cream with chocolate cake dessert MMmmmm. Meh: Although the sushi (nigiri) pieces were thick cuts and fresh, they were lacking in flavoring/seasoning. Chirashi was also completely bland because it wasn't seasoned at all and pure fish over rice (must add soy sauce for some flavor). My advice to the restaurant is to work on developing the Japanese side of things. I'm a huge sushi and Japanese food lover, but if you're going to offer things like a 12 piece omakase on your menu, I'd like to see the flavor profile for the fish and rice improved a bit. I'll be back for those must have dishes though. And to try some of your other dishes. read more

I came here on a weekday for lunch. It's a little bit pricy, but it's so close to Times Square that it's to be expected. The food is good and the menu is large, although it's not the place to go as a vegetarian. One thing I did love is that the menu is on a digital tablet with photos of every item. The service is solid and the decor is really nice. It's a completely solid place for sushi in the area, but I wouldn't go out of your way for it. read more

Damn good kosher Peruvian-Japanese food, although after one of their stiff drinks (I recommend the Mars Iwai traditional whiskey in a highball) you might think of it as a Japanese Peruvian kosher restaurant instead. Prices are high (but typical for Manhattan). Miso soup was good, Agedashi tofu, and Japanese cucumber with toasted quinoa also good. Beef skewers with teriyaki-chimmichurri sauce were good. Beef was chewy which is expected for kosher beef from the chuck, flavorful beef though. Vegetable sushi was good. Cocktails were nice and strong, with plenty of booze, nice selection of Japanese whiskeys. Deserts were good, any kosher meat restaurant has the challenge of doing good non dairy deserts which ain't easy. Overall recommended. read more

Good ambiance, okay service. But the most important things to a restaurant, the food, were VERY mediocre. The pricing is quite high compared to other spots (besides other dishes, it costs 10 dollars for a bowl of rice, same as the miso soup), yet the taste really didn't match up with that pricing. Very disappointing experience. read more
