    We came by for a weeknight dinner at Tatsuda. The ambiance is very good - interior isn't too cramped and they have a dedicated waiting area for the next set of seatings. They have three seatings every night, and during the service there are three chefs for only 15ish people. There was a free round of sake near the end of the service. The fish was so fresh and soft, most of the slices were melt in your mouth. The omakase is more traditional and is more nigiri focused, doing a great job of showcasing the fish. The selection was quality but more conventional. Overall a really good option if you want an omakase experience that won't disappoint but won't blow you away either.

    Cuisine: 8 Service: 8 Decor: 8 Value: 8 Overall: 8 With all the sushi omakase options out there, I am grateful that some of them didn't follow the formula of using crazy amounts of fancy toppings and overpowering sauces. Even more surprising that it's located right near Time Square. Opened toward the latter part of 2023, I have been here a handful of times. Their 16 course omakase is now $90 for 75 minutes. The short timeframe is probably one of my least favorite part of all the omakase restaurants opening up over the last decade. Thankfully, at least they put out a decent product with a reasonable price. The meal starts off with three prepared courses. On my last visit, they served Snow Crab Salad, Monk Fish Liver, and Grilled Black Cod. I thoroughly enjoyed all the starters. Then it continues with 13 pieces of nigiri, which I will get into details below, and finishing off with a piece of creamy cheesecake-like version of tamago. Overall, a very good meal. As for the nigiri, I thought the rice was decent, but sadly nothing special. However, the freshness and cut of the seafood was up average for the price range. Considering it as one product, I would say that it's satisfying enough for me to revisit. The host and chefs are all quite nice. I had good conversations with them both. Going forward when I am in the neighborhood for Broadway shows, I'll consider coming here for a quick dinner.

    The omakase dinner here is amazing. The fish is so fresh and the courses left me satisfied, which cannot be said about all omakase dinners. I loved the salmon bite with foie gras and Wagyu. The quality was just so good!

    I recently celebrated my birthday at Tatsuda Restaurant and it turned into an unforgettable evening. Chef Sean's talent was on full display as he carefully crafted each roll, combining the freshest fish in a way that made every piece feel unique and tasted absolutely out of this world. Beyond the incredible food, the warm hospitality truly made the night special. To my surprise, the staff brought out a delicious chocolate cake on the house and even sang a birthday song, which made my celebration feel extra meaningful. It's rare to find a place where I was treated not just as a customer, but as a special guest . Tatsuda continues to be my favorite restaurant and I always look forward to coming back.Thanks !

    What an incredible experience! It's a first for me and I certainly can't wait to go back! Every piece of fresh was prepared to the max. The flavors were out of this world and Chef Reo couldn't be more knowledgeable. Do realize that it is bar seating and everyone sits at the same bar while your chef prepares the food in front of you. I think it's worth the price and if you do decide to go please be kind to your chef. Ask questions and have conversations ! It makes the an even better experience. Very relaxed environment and super friendly. I don't recommend a big party for this kind of eating. Last recommendation is come with an empty stomach. Those pieces of fresh fish end up catching up to you haha

    A very small restaurant. All seats are on the counter, less than 15. It has no menu. You eat whatever the sushi San gives you, all seafood though. It was delicious and enjoyable but our sushi-San wasn't too social or talkative. Very reasonably priced.

    The fish was very fresh. I liked all the sushi I got. I don't know if I would say this was a great deal for the price point. It wasn't the worst, but also not amazing. The sushi chef didn't really make yours in front of you. The catered to everyone at the bar at the same time, so you can't really watch them make your order each time. It was also very loud because there was another large birthday party, so this was probably not the best experience for everybody else.

    Great omakase place that's decently priced with pretty good quality fish/portion sizes! Service was fast and friendly and ambiance was pretty casual-- good to come for a casual date night or if you're just craving some sushi. We both got the 16 piece dinner omakase set and ordered a bottle of sake on the side. Overall, most of the nigiri pieces were good (ofc not the level of the $200, $300+ omakase placed in NYC but also better than your average joe omakase place). The sake we got (35 year old one) was very smooth and good too! The pieces I liked the most are: 1. All the tuna pieces (bluefin tuna, fatty tuna): 10/10 (I'm biased because I love fatty fish) 2. Uni: 10/10 (also biased because I love uni! But I love how they give you uni TWICE??) 3. Yellowtail: 10/10 (once again... biased because I loooove yellowtail) 4. Wagyu/beef: 10/10 (super tender and flavorful) 5. Ankimo: 9/10 (good but a little lacking in flavor when compared to the ankimo I had in Korea) The pieces I wash meh about: - Appetizer/toast with uni and caviar: 7.5/10 (love how they start you off with uni AND caviar but... why is on bread!!! I feel like that was a bit unnecessary... it would've been 10/10 if it was ok regular sushi rice) - One of the white fishes: 2/10 (I don't remember which fish it was other than it was one of the white fishes in the middle of the course. It was extremelyyyy fishy!!!!)

    I came here for a birthday dinner and we had a great time. Located in Hell's Kitchen, this omakase spot is $90pp and 16-courses. Service here is steady and doesn't feel rushed, but they definitely do stick to their 75 minutes. We got a variety of your expected sashimi, such as their amberjack, red snapper, salmon, and scallop. Everything was fresh and delicious. I loved their monkfish liver more than I expected (I normally don't like it). And, they ended their course with a cheesecake that was delightful. As we went for a birthday dinner, they also brought out cake and sang, which was super fun. Truly enjoyed my time here and my friends said they would come back!

    Had a fantastic omakase here - it is 75 mins so they do keep you to your time. The pieces weren't super crafted but were tasty and a reasonable price for the amount of pieces. The only marks off would be for the sake I was recommended (dassai 23 I think) which had the cloying sweet taste I dislike as well as the matcha cheesecake which is not rich nor custard and almost dry. I did try the tatsuda special for an upcharge and wow, while I was plenty full, this was an amazing piece all blended well together.

    I went to Tatsuda for the omakase dinner. Ambience is a little more casual than what you'd expect from an omakase restaurant. The ingredients were remarkably fresh and delicious (I recommend trying the Uni - sweet, briny, and rich). Chef Andy was knowledgeable of his craft and friendly. I was quite pleased with the sake selection and the host's deep knowledge of sake. At $90/pp (as of 4/21/26), this certainly is a great value. But don't let the price fool you! Tatsuda does not compromise on quality.

    Highly overpriced for the experience received Upon arrival the table seated were for 6 people and it was very crammed. Every time the door was open you would get the cold rainy draft. It is very rushed and the chef barely spoke at all. There was excessive upsell and to be honest the Uni and hokkado salmon and wagyu add on were not good at all. The dessert served with the 16 course dinner was awful, match cheese cake it was powdery and stale! They do make good cocktails and their eel, mackerel, and king salmon sashimi was great! The sturgeon caviar was very mild. Their pickled wasabi was a treat for your tastebuds. At $400 for 2 people. Sadly i was disappointed! They did give a complimentary shot of sake which was good quality. No frills , clean but crammed.

    Best sushi I've had in my entire life. Great, attentive service. Perfect pacing. I wouldn't think 16 pieces would fill me up, especially since I came in hangry, but it was the perfect amount.

    I had been to Momoya on the Upper West Side before, but this was my first visit to the Chelsea…read morelocation. The atmosphere here was a bit more lively and crowded compared to the more relaxed vibe of the UWS spot. I enjoyed my meal even more this time around. I started with the beet salad, which was delicious and offered great value given the generous portion size. it featured sliced beets, arugula, goat cheese, and walnuts. I also had my eye on the hijiki soybean salad--which is a bit smaller and reportedly homemade--so I may try that next time, along with the warm mushroom salad which looked very tasty. The edamame was standard but served as a nice starter. For my main rolls, I chose the salmon avocado and the yellowtail scallion. Both were very fresh and definitely worth ordering again. The salmon avocado roll had a nice touch of sesame seeds on the rice, while the yellowtail scallion was prepared with the seaweed on the outside. My boyfriend's sushi entree looked excellent, so I am considering that or the sushi-sashimi combo for my next visit. The entrees provide a substantial amount of food, and I especially appreciate that they allow you to choose which roll comes with your meal.

    Honestly, I'm surprised this restaurant has a four-star rating. While the service was excellent,…read morethe food was consistently disappointing. We started with a lychee martini that tasted overwhelmingly of vodka, with barely any lychee flavor. Of the appetizers--the seaweed salad, cucumber salad, and edamame dumplings--the cucumber salad was the best. The seaweed salad tasted like a standard prepackaged version, while the dumplings had an unusual, unpleasant flavor and tasted as though they had come straight from the freezer. For our main dishes, we ordered the chicken teriyaki bento box and udon with tempura. The udon was acceptable, but the tempura was excessively oily, lacking the light, crisp texture you would expect. Even the chicken teriyaki was underwhelming; it tasted more like a reheated, prepared meal than something freshly cooked. The sushi was another letdown, with an odd flavor and appearance. The dynamite roll was especially disappointing, with an unpleasant texture and very little flavor beyond a touch of heat. The staff deserves credit for their attentive, friendly service, but unfortunately, that couldn't make up for the quality of the meal. We left feeling genuinely disappointed.

    After trying a dozen of sushi/omakase places in New York I can definitively the best I've had…read more The omakase at Sanyuu West is honestly unbeatable. Every single fish is very high quality I find many places like the skimp out on the less popular fish but not Sanyuu West. I think the omakase is also at a very good price for the quality and amount you get though I know it is more expensive than maybe the average omakase spot right now. I also find that other spots usually underdeliver. I wish I could save more detail but honestly I have nothing more to say other than the fact that Sanyuu Weat amazing. The restaurant itself is also more spacious than I expected. Besides the main bar there are two sitting areas near the window as well as seats lined up to the bathroom to make yourself comfortable two things that I think are a rare find now in many places. A lot of thought is put into this restaurant layout and I think you can tell. The service was also great I found myself never lacking in water or waiting too long for my next piece. In fact, I had started to apologize about drinking so much water because I felt like the hostess was constantly at my side refilling my cup and she just turned to me and said, "don't apologize. Drinking water is very important." So true!!!! I'm very picky abt my recommendations to friends, I'll review any place I go to and give my thoughts but a real recommendation? I only have around a dozen or so. And Sanyuu West is definitely now part of that dozen.

It is a really small place with around 6-8 tables so it probably gets busy at times and there may be a wait. One of the best parts of their menu here is that you can order sushi by the piece.

Literally so good. I was seriously craving crispy rice and these were perfect. I would order this again and again. The sushi was fresh and taste great as well. Super glad we decided to come here!

    This evening we were going to a jazz club where a friend of our son works at, but they don't serve…read morefood, so we had to find a place in the area of where the club is at. Do of course I use Yelp to find something that catches my eye close by where we need to be. I found umami Sushi. We usually can't go wrong with Japanese food or sushi. We had no problems finding the place. The description said it was a small restaurant and as we entered the dining area was very small. Our hotel room was probably bigger. That doesn't bother me especially if we get there, there tables for us to sit comfortably. I also trust my judgment when I find a place that seems to be popular by the locals. The restaurant was empty when we arrived. We were the only ones there, but for some reason we bring good vibes to the places we eat because not too long after we placed our order, people started coming in, to the point that the small dining room was packed. I love Omakase style Service and what we ordered was a sashimi/sushi platter for three and two special rolls. I thought I got to choose the rolls but even that was chefs choice. I was just a bit worried that they would give us the cheap rolls like spicy tuna or California roll. The platter came out and it was beautifully prepared with a piece of sashimi for each of us and the rolls the chefs chose, ended up being two of my favorite rolls. The types of fish they selected were also great quality fish. We were lucky to have placed our order before the crowd came in our we might have had to wait a while because how they prepared it would have taken some time. The service was just right. Because they got busy right away, the waitress was forced to attend to everyone and couldn't really socialize with us. In fact when we finished our platter we were debating what we wanted for dessert but the waitress didn't even ask us and instead she just brought us the bill, so we said to ourselves, "I guess we're not having dessert here." So we paid the bill and gave an opportunity for someone else to take our table.
