Contribute Feedback What Chris H likes about Sushi Yasuda:
Their overall flavor is lean to light, really good to try out especially in summer, also they provide high quality special seafood where is hard to find in fusion sushi restaurants. My personal favorites are: giant clams, oyster, scallop, cherrystone clam, shima aji, and sliver salmon. View all feedback.
What Jesse Carroll doesn't like about Sushi Yasuda:
My guest and I had the Omakase 15. Unexciting, monotone, and ordinary, yet delectable, sushi that was way overpriced $10 per piece) in a boring and sedate setting. May be good for a business lunch, but that’s it. View all feedback.
I had a wonderful dinner experience here (I did a la carte, not omakase). The space was beautiful, minimal, and sparkling clean. The service was outstanding. The food was delicious. Fish was so fresh and buttery that it melted in my mouth.
I went for their omakase 12. If it was priced below $80 I would say it is a good deal. Food was good but as a Michelin star restaurant which charge $100 for 12 sushi I would expect a 'wow ' when I put them in my mouth. Honestly I didn 't feel that wow. Maybe my expectations was high.
I’m very picky and particular with food, and restaurants, Sushi Yasuda was a good, but not the greatest. The restaurant was very clean and Japanesy, but the service not so much. Omakase wasn’t so excited, was kind of as you ordered a sushi plate, no tsukemono or misoshiro was included. The fish it self was good, but the expectations are high when you go to a Michelin star.
No many how many times I go they still manage to keep up their high standards. Amazing place with quality ingredients. This place is by no mean cheap but for an omakase in New York it is quite reasonable price and their is no need for tips at this restaurant either. If you can try to reserve seats at the bar. A few minutes from the bar to table could make big difference in taste and temperature of the sushi.
We had a nice experience at Sushi Yasuda. A splurge for sure but the ambience was pristine, the service was quick and the sushi and sashimi was among the freshest we've tasted. My partner ordered the 15 piece omakase and I ordered the 12 piece 3 piece sashimi, which came out a little cheaper. We also ordered another Umi handroll and the mochi. The omakase was quite good but truthfully we couldn't distinguish from one piece to the next the flavors all blended together whereas some other omakase experiences may try to enhance each piece with a different flavor. Perhaps it's because I'm not an afficiando. But we did enjoy every piece. Likely won't return as it was quite pricey and there are too many places to try in Manhattan.
