"There’s not a millisecond wasted at Shinn East, an East Village spot with two 12-seat bars. Wait outside for the previous group to clear out, then take your seat quickly and get ready, because they’ll serve your 12 pieces of well-seasoned, flavorful nigiri and a toro hand roll over the course of 55 minutes. It doesn’t feel rushed, but it’ll be over before you know it. As long as you’re ok with eating sushi with the voraciousness of a shop-vac eating sawdust, for $69, Shinn East is a really good option for taking yourself out, or the first stop of a casual date night. They also have a location in Hell’s Kitchen." - neha talreja, bryan kim, kenny yang, hannah albertine, will hartman
