"Most folks know Wabi Sabi, an excellent Japanese restaurant in the Upper East Side, for its donburi bowls. But the menu has expanded over the years, and now they offer maki, nigiri, and sashimi—and it's all really good. You can order nigiri and handrolls by the piece, but they also have several omakase options that hover at or just below $100. The nigiri omakase comes with 12 pieces and one maki. The sashimi omakase comes with 12 pieces of fish. And the chirashi omakase (the cheapest at $50) is 12 pieces of sashimi served over a lovely bed of sushi rice. You can enjoy all of the above in Wabi Sabi’s quiet, lowkey dining room, but they’re all available for takeout as well." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
