Vicki B.Vicki Bloom: Eight seat, fixed seating, open kitchen tempura omakase with French-influenced appetizers and dessert. Great experience.

Dustin L.Dustin Lee: You will end up blowing a ton of money here (unless you're highly disciplined and stick with the base option), but you will also be served an impeccably prepared meal. Good spot for special occasions

AriAri: Starting November 1, 2017, the two omakase prices will change to $75 and $100 respectively.

Hannah B.Hannah B: Love this place, come here at least once a month! Best omakase in NYC, hands down. Worth the money and better than some other more expensive spots. Service is impeccable and the atmosphere is ideal.

EaterEater: Omakase-only sushi bar Shuko is dark and intimate, complete with a dining cave. Expect simple, classic preparations, and the occasional truffle encrusted sushi roll or caviar-topped lump of toro. Read more.

EaterEater: Grab a bite at NYC's newest restaurant. It hosts a 20-seat sushi counter where diners will be served a set menu of 12 to 15 courses by both Kim and Lau. Read more.

DensDens: Omakase from the downstairs sushi bar is amazing. Don't leave without trying the hand rolls (go spicy tuna!). I was also digging the salmon-meets-blowtorch sushi. Ask for fresh wasabi too.

New York HabitatNew York Habitat: If you are a sushi lover, this is the right place! Make sure to try their spicy tuna rolls, and Sushi & Sashimi Combination. And the prices are good for what you get!

Meg F.Meg Farmer: This was one of my fav restaurants when I lived in LA, & I'm so happy they are now in NYC. Just go w/ the trust me and let the chef make all the decisions. Sushi is seriously melt-in-your moth good.

Zach S.Zach Scott: Go for the trust me. The albacore is melt in your mouth. The hand rolls must be eaten immediately.

AmateurConciergeAmateurConcierge: Still a great deal. Trust Me for $33 service included. Real crowd pleaser, but go at off peak times if you don’t want to be waiting hours
