We went to Sushi Yasuda last night after reading all the wonderful reviews. The sushi was good but nothing to die for. Dont get me wrong, we had a lovely time but not quite sure where all the hype is coming from. Decor was beautiful but very bright, a little cold, and definately not romantic. Didnt really feel relaxed there... more

Chef Yasuda's Sushi rice melts in your mouth and pairs exceptionally well with the freshest fish I've ever had. One must try the Uni (Urchin) and Peace Passage Oyster for a unique and delicious flavor. I have finally found my sushi place for life. more

My wife and I simply love sushi and this place is the best we have ever been. 1. Restaurant: looks nice 2. Service: attentive and fast Sadly we have never eaten in the sushi bar, but my friends highly recommend it. The only draw back is that the portions are small and are very expensive. more

Took my son and family for his birthday treat. And treat it was. The sushi could not have been better, the service was great, and they took care of my finicky elderly mother without batting an eye. more

Was here last November (after reading reviews) and we are counting the days to when we return (August). By chance we got a table at the bar and that really added to our experience. Our "chef" was very helpfull and we gave him full licence to prepare what he wanted for us. Everything about this place is wonderful, the understated... more

If you go, you must sit at the sushi bar at Yasuda San's station. To do this, you must call several weeks in advance and specifically state that you want to be seated at his station. Then, the day before the reservation you have to call back and confirm the reservation or they will "forget." A bit of a pain... more

this was not a good experience. We had hoped for the best sushi in NY - but it was clearly not. Nice and pleasant service - but their sushi is nothing out of the ordinary more

We had the omakase and sat in front of Mr. Yasuda at the sushi bar. It was a great experience. A few tips: 1. the uni is a must have dish! 2. always have the nigiri because the rice is very good (mr. yasuda told us he is a rice man.. haha!) 3. always request the sushi bar preferably in... more

The food at this restaurant is pitched toward gaijin. The portions are large, which seems to be the only thing that the ignorant American sushi-nibbler seems to understand. The pricing is outrageous, but justifiable by reference to the exceptionally-large pieces of fish. For the same money, you can go to Kuruma, where you may come to understand the zen of... more
