Rubén GarcíaSeptember 11, 2017Very fresh and high quality fish. The sushi deluxe board is a pretty good value for the quality and for the generous fish slices. Cash or amex only!
Susan S.May 1, 2017Get the sashimi deluxe with the tempura veggies as an appetizer! And save room for the dessert- the tempura fried banana and ice cream was so good!
Celena ChanSeptember 22, 2015Best value sushi-- large slices and really fresh (try the sashimi/sushi platter for around $30). The hamachi kama and hot dishes are great too! Cash and Amex only.
DMarch 14, 2016Sushi deluxe with a side of Toro fatty tuna and a roll of fatty tuna sushi. Our omakase came with a piece of Toro fatty tuna! Totally fat and totally melts in your mouth.
Mark MunroFebruary 22, 2018Authentic and intimate, Tomoe retains a ton of character and serves up great sushi at a reasonable price.
Carol FontanetiNovember 9, 2015The quality of the fish is amazing. Fresh and large pieces of sashimi taste like heaven and the hands rolls are just too delicious, I tried the spicy tuna , perfection. I found the price very fair too
Meredith BlechmanJanuary 13, 2015The freshest, most delicious sushi in a modest, cozy atmosphere. No frills At this place. Worth the wait (no reservations). Get the toro and yellowtail.
Shiri LaraMarch 5, 2016Tomoe is a staple. The fish is fresh and plentiful. Go for lunch to get the best deal, little to no wait and sashimi or sushi combo for $20.
ThomJanuary 6, 2020Take the octopus “Tako - Su” as appetizer! Great place for a delicious dinner, but be prepared to wait in a queue (no reservations possible).
Douglas EllimanAugust 5, 2014A small, laidback and casual downtown restaurant. We love how fresh and delicious all the pieces of sashimi are. The line can get a bit crazy, but come with less then 5 people and order away!
Mike WinstonFebruary 17, 2014Looking for a deal on extraordinary sushi? Head to Tomoe from 1-3 and don't miss the sashimi lunch special. Read all about my visit on WinstonWanders below!! Read more
Emilie FuttermanJanuary 3, 2015Worth the long wait to get in (bring a beer). They only serve items if it's fresh. The rolls are great, the sushi is incredible. Get one fatty tuna and two baby yellowtails.
İpek A.March 23, 2015I usually prefer Blue Ribbon but Tomoe is also great! Cheaper & delicious. And ask for the special rolls which are not on the menu.
The best sushi for the price in NYC if you like the real thick fatty delicious piece of fish over the thin sliced $50 delicacy crap
MarthaMarch 7, 2015tiny place. not fancy by any means and service is fast and to the point. always a line but i often go solo and sit at sushi bar. sashimi is very fresh...melts in your mouth.
Halstead PropertyJuly 11, 2013Want to try it all? Order a Sashimi-deluxe for dinner to get a generously cut, 16 piece assortment of some of the thickest and freshest fish around. It is well worth the expense.
Ernesto GutierrezFebruary 1, 2020Fresh fish and big nigiri cuts at a reasonable price make this place hard to beat. The long line is worth it. Stick to nigiris which are their specialties.
This place never disappoints. It feels like being in a super authentic sushi restaurant in Tokyo. Incredibly fresh and delicious. If there's a line, it's worth the wait.
Lauren MacSeptember 1, 2015$27 for a hearty miso and a colorful, flavorful platter of fish & rice -- sushi this good isn't normally this cheap! It smells funny inside but don't let it turn you away, it's good value. Moist rice!
Great bang for your buck. High quality, fresh sushi at a super reasonable price (for New York).
Quan NguyenMarch 28, 2016Incredible pricing for equally incredible deliciousness. Line is a bit slow, but once you're in, service is great.
Karina MuslimovaNovember 23, 2016My fav place to go when I want the best sushi in the city. Always outstanding fish and the matcha ice cream!
Ethan IllfelderFebruary 9, 2017The ocean trout is surprisingly great! Fresh fish - all thick cuts with lots of flavor. Got the sushi re
Great sushi spot if you like Japanese style sushi (which focuses on fish quality rather than rolls with lots of ingredients). They do have rolls, but I go for their excellent sashimi :)
Ashley ChanNovember 28, 2016If you're looking for sushi at a good value, this is the place. A filling meal costs under 50 pp and the slices of sashimi are abnormally large. It was disappointing that they ran out of uni though.
Christine LNovember 5, 2016The Sushi Lunch Special was the perfect portion and really fresh. The prices seem to have gone up from the listed prices on the website. Cash & Amex only.
The cuts of fish are larger than usual, but taste super fresh. Order less than more. Yellowtail, unagi, and ikura are all good choices.
my favorite sushi spot downtown and probably in all of manhattan below the fancy tier. a little pricey, but the sashimi slices are large and in charge and will melt in your mouth.
Berk KapiciogluNovember 10, 2014One of the best and most affordable sushi restaurants in the village. Fatty tuna is legendary. It's a small space so you might end up waiting for a seat.
Joey JFebruary 3, 2019Sushi Deluxe, Yuzu Sake, Shrimp Tempura and Nigori Sake. Yummy hole in the wall that takes you back to Japan.
Ina LiJune 26, 2016Affordable price, fresh ingredients, good cuts, good service, explains the long waiting line. (Cash/American Express only)
nous mangeonsOctober 23, 2015Fresh and great value sushi. Usually there is a wait and you can't just put your name down and come back. Worth the wait! Cash or Amex only.
Juan Manuel BerrosJanuary 11, 2018Nice sushi, sashimi and nigiri. Quote pricey though.Banana Tempura as dessert was great.
OlinApril 21, 2018You can’t expect this good food from the looks of the place from the outside. Very affordable and delicious sushi. Cash only
goldielocksJuly 23, 2013Lovely sushi, nice cozy place, expect waiting 'cause the place is very small but popular. Bring cash with you, they don't accept visa or mastercard, only amex.
Fran SuMarch 30, 2016Fresh, authentic, worth the wait. Come as party of 2 or 3--it's easier to get a table at this tiny restaurant.
DailyCandyFebruary 14, 2014“Crowded” is an understatement. Once inside, find what you’d imagine a wooden shack on the Japanese coast to be: strangely cozy and stocked with fresh fish of every variety.
Melissa RosenthalMarch 23, 2015Excellent sushi and sashimi. The pieces are pretty large and the quality is exceptional.
Melody HanSeptember 19, 2015Salmon skin roll is the bomb. Great value for quality of fish. Show up right at open to avoid line.
Tin KadoicSeptember 26, 2014One of the best sushi places I've been to in New York City. Messy, honest, fresh and tasty. Absolutely love it.
AlexisDecember 7, 2014Very no nonsense place for true sushi lovers. Sashimi is a great plate of fish. Incredibly fresh and tasty.
Pamela CastilloDecember 20, 2014Worth the wait! The sushi is always fresh and delicious, there's ankimo when its in season and its reasonably priced. Cash & Amex only!
Marisa WongAugust 30, 2015Best uni I've had in NYC this far! Can't go wrong with the sashimi here, it's amazingly fresh
NancerellaMay 24, 2015Wow!!! It's been over a decade since I've been there... Went back with great expectation since it's a well reviewed spot... All I can say is do people know what fresh sushi is??? HORRIBLE!!!!
Order the "super fatty tuna". It isn't always on the menu, and it could very well be the most money that you have ever spent on a bite-size morsel...but daaayummmmm

"Some of the best & freshest sushi I’ve had in a long time. Just get the Omikase and enjoy."
Frank Rimalovski - 9.1
"Really great value at $75 for the omakase. Never had a cherry blossom leaf which was unique. But definitely order one or two a la carte pieces afterwards, especially the botan shrimp topped with uni"
