"Sushi Yasuda is one of New York’s oldest omakase haunts, regarded as a bastion for fine fish with a classic menu. Here, one can sit at a table or at the bar, and order a la carte, the chef’s choice omakase (available at market price), the omakase 15 ($170), or the omakase 12 during dinner only ($130). Pro tip: The best seats in the house are at the far end of the sushi bar. Book reservations online." - Nadia Chaudhury
