To tell the truth, NewYorker's love of Japanese materials is far beyond my imagination. Alexander Wang's clerk will tell you that his favorite Japanese ramen shop is definitely IPPUDO, and the creative Japanese food store where Jack Ma and Zhao Wei came to New York to pull grass is Saikai. Whether it's the Upper East Side or the East Village, you'll find one or two popular Japanese restaurants. It is no exaggeration to say that in addition to Tokyo, New York is the best place to eat sushi! This time, the high heels have properly identified 5 super popular sushi restaurants in New York for the friends, take a look!

The most expensive Omakase in the United States
The top Japanese material of the Three Michelin Stars and the Four Stars of the New York Times - Masa (Ya), can only be described as extremely expensive and domineering. With 26 seats, no menu, no decision," dinner is only available as "Omakase". The 26 courses, from $300 per person at its beginning, rose to $595 (excluding beverages and taxes) in March this year.
Before entering the restaurant first, the wooden door you push open is 2500-year-old Japanese cedar wood, and what you push open is not the door, it is the evergreen history! The seemingly bland sushi table is made of Japan's top flat bamboo wood, which is said to be worth up to $60,000... So I can be careful when eating, I am afraid of scratching and not being able to afford to lose...
Masa Takayama is absolutely ingredients, and the ingredients shipped from all over the world every day are expertly selected. On a three-hour "journey to eating light," each sushi has a unique magical taste. The most beautiful are cherry seabream, the most abundant is caviar, the most delicious is red sea urchin, the most amazing is puffer tempura, the most creative is truffle sushi, and the fullest is the top black tuna. The sophistication of the service is as good as ever. After the whole courses are over, the sushi chef will ask you which one you like the most, and then make a special one that counts as a bonus. But any guest restaurant that has visited once will record your preferences.
High heel tips:
1. No photo can be taken during the meal (except for VIP members).
2. Don't be discouraged if you don't make an appointment with Masa, across the wall is Bar Masa, also a fighter in the spare tire. All ingredients come from Masa margins, so the price will be relatively affordable.

Sushi Nakazawa
Comes with a Michelin aura
Japanese lovers must have seen the 2011 documentary "Jiro Dreams of Sushi" by Jiro Ono, the "sushi god" in Japan. Two years ago, Obama's visit to Japan should be the last Omakase made by Master Jiro, and he is almost 90 years old this year, and finally passed on the Ginza storefront to his eldest son. At the beginning of November, Xiao Bei posted a photo of him and Erlang's grandfather on the Instagram, and said lightly that Uncle I ate two meals in 5 weeks... What an envy of others' show off!! Didn't the god of the creation help him knead sushi with his own hands...
I don't know if you remember the three apprentices in the documentary, Nakazawa who was asked to do Tamagoyoaki 200 times and was jokingly called the little prince of Tamako? In 2011, he came to New York to open a sushi restaurant, Sushi Nakazawa, a sushi-mae restaurant. Since its opening, the seat of Sushi Bar has been booked a month in advance, and the high heels have been brushed for a long time before the Opentable has grabbed two seats ~ It is also a variety of bitter tears! Twenty pieces of sushi, which have a fairly light taste, are also eaten well. Smoky sockeye salmon is moderately thick and light, sea scallop is crisp and soft and sweet, California sea urchin, Japanese grouper, bluefin golden gun, the ingredients are top fresh but not amazing. Although it is not as good as Soto, it is more than enough than The Gari46
Heels Tips:
1. Sushi Nakazawa consists of Sushi Bar and Dining Room. Only sushi bar, which is scheduled to be scheduled from Monday to Friday, will have the opportunity to appreciate The craftsmanship of Master Nakazawa
2. The Sushi bar has only 10 seats and can only accept a maximum of two people to position them. There are only 3 reserved time slots per night (5:00PM/7:15PM/9:30PM), so it is basically necessary to book a month in advance.

Copse
New York's most modest sea urchin feast
If a two-Michelin-starred restaurant doesn't have an official website, you can say it's mysteriously low-key; but if there's no sign at the door... Is it going to be low into the dust?! Harm I looked for the old half a day at 6th Ave... TT...
The name of the SoTO shop is taken from the name of their boss, Sotohiro Kosugi. The owner is a third-generation chef who started his business in Atlanta and has been immersed in culinary skills.
Omakase has a total of 18 dishes. Uni cocktail, Uni sushi, all kinds of sea urchin dishes for sea urchin maniacs such as the glutton eater is simply a sea urchin feast that can't stop!! Uni Ika Sugomori Zukuri, in particular, is a nest made of nori silk wrapped in large sea urchins, surrounded by translucent squid and a yellow quail egg on its head. Gently stirred with a small spoon, the sticky egg mixture, crispy squid and smooth sea urchin hatched in the mouth for new taste and vitality. This dish I give Samsung!!
1. The restaurant can also be à la carte in addition to Omakase.
2. Open from 6pm to 11:45pm, closed on Sundays.

SAIKAI Ding Bar
The idea of the modern japanese wind
Goodies know how to eat from time to time. I don't know if this is the reason why Ma Yun Zhao Wei came to New York to pull grass. Several of Saikai's chefs have learned from the previously introduced Masa, changing the menu every season according to the ingredients, and are good at creative dishes that combine Chinese and Western cuisine. Smoked duck meat with foie gras is evocative from the presentation to the taste, and sea urchin risotto, unlike the traditional to Japanese sea urchin rice, has a textured feeling of rice grains with delicious California Uni, smooth and tender.
Saikai, which has a very elegant environment, also has a thick wine list, and now many Japanese restaurants have begun to promote Japanese sake culture, paying attention to the taste of the origin like wine. It's also a good choice to have a drink with friends in the evening!
The restaurant is open for dinner only and is open until 11:30pm on Fridays and Saturdays

Sushi of Gari
The preserve of creative sushi
Some people are nostalgic for the orthodoxy of Edo-mae sushi, and naturally some people appreciate the creative sushi style that is exclusively refined in this melting pot in New York. Sushi of Gari's master chef MASATOSHI "GARI" Sugio debuted at the age of 19 and eventually won a Michelin star in New York with a creative flavoring combination. Although there are now 5 stores in Meidi, the gourmets are still obsessed with the original taste of this upper East Side.
Unlike other sushi restaurants, the Omakase here does not have a set price, and the sushi chef will serve until you tell him that he is full (for guests sitting in the sushi bar), so you still have to roughly remember how many times you have eaten, otherwise you will break the table by minute ~ High heels Remember that the sushi items on the menu are about 4.5-8.5 US dollars / round.
Sushi of Gari has branches in the upper, middle and lower cities of New York, but the Michelin star is not with the store, so strictly speaking, only the Up East Side is a Michelin star
. The restaurant's official website has a graphic introduction of Signature sushi, it is recommended that you can first go online to see your favorite flavors, so that you can order with the master chef in a knowledgeable way

"Omakase" - In Japanese it is "Please! " means.
It's not just a sushi restaurant,
Some high-end Japanese dishes also have "Omakase".
Cai Lan, the god of food, has the following insight into this:
The master chef chooses the best ingredients to cut for you to eat.
To put it bluntly, it is to set a consumption budget,
Ask the sushi chef to "watch and do it".
Usually before enjoying Omakase,
The store will ask the guests if there are any taboos? allergic?
Then you can sit down at the bar.
Watch the sushi gods bring you unknown delicious surprises.
That's what I'm most looking forward to!
