What Olivier LA likes about Jewel Bako:
The setting is nice and interesting with two parallel and almost identical rooms and a counter in the back. Service is excellent. We were a bit disappointing because their fish and rice are high quality but they tend to spoil the raw flavors by adding too much unnecessary noise on their sushi like scallions, jalapeno, yuzu, microgreens, spices, horseradish, and so on. Prices are fair. View all feedback. What OpenTable Diner doesn't like about Jewel Bako:
Food is very basic and does not taste fresh at all. A lot of it just tasted old and bad. Really do not recommend, despite how much of a fan of omakase my partner and I usually are. View all feedback.

It's one of the worst sushi places ever in NYC. The service is awful, the sushi is not fresh. I recommend to go somewhere else.

I wanted to love this place, honestly omakase, close to home, highly rated but it was just ok.

For a Michelin Star restaurant, I expected much more. Went in with 3 friends, ordered the full Omakase and 3 bottles of wine/sake. Service was abysmal, and food...

The food was probably good but the noise and the assembly line service ruined it
