"There’s another new omakase spot that’ll cost you less than $100 before tax and tip in Soho. Sushi Ōuji asks for just $89 for 14 courses during a 90-minute seating. While the counter setting isn’t as intimate as a private table, it could be a good choice for a relatively budget-friendly omakase. There’s a counter, but also some tables." - Will Hartman, Willa Moore

“Affordable” Omakases in New York

“Manhattan is swimming in fast omakases, but the $109 procession of courses at Sushi Ouji, a subterranean spot that opened in December on Prince Street, stood out with a lovely chawanmushi starter loaded with snow crab and scallop and a gorgeous slice of ikura-topped futomaki served after nine pieces of nigiri. —T.T.”

We came to Sushi Ouji to celebrate my friend’s birthday, and it was an incredible experience! The service was impeccable—friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. The food was absolutely spectacular. My personal favorites were the tuna and eel bites, but honestly, every dish was phenomenal. The sake pairings were a perfect complement to the meal, and the staff was knowledgeable in recommending options. For the quality of food and service, the pricing is very reasonable. If you’re looking for exceptional sushi with a warm and inviting atmosphere, Sushi Ouji is a must-visit. Highly recommend!

Sushi Ouji in Soho is a hidden gem that combines exceptional sushi with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. From the moment you step inside, the friendly staff make you feel right at home, offering attentive service with a genuine smile. The sushi pre-fix menu is a standout, featuring a variety of expertly crafted pieces that highlight the freshest fish and delicate flavors. Each course is thoughtfully presented, showcasing the skill and artistry of the chefs. The decor is clean and minimal, creating a calming environment where the focus is on the food. If you're looking for a top-notch sushi experience in Soho, Sushi Ouji is a must-visit!

Exceptional quality fish. Really delicious and fresh. Every dish was excellent. Terrific customer service. Filled my water, pushed my chair in, all was super! Must try, definitely worth it.

Hands down the best culinary experience we've had in our lives. Ben, the head sushi chef and Kevin the GM took great of us. The sushi was so fresh and the presentation, taste, temperature and texture of everything was unbelievable. It was such a personable, up close, educational omakse experience. I'm spreading the word about this place and coming back to NYC just for this experience again.

We stumbled across Sushi Ouji just walking down Prince St one night. The restaurant had such an inviting atmosphere that we booked the omakase the next day! Each dish is masterfully curated by Chef Ben and beautifully executed by the talented, attentive chefs at the sushi bar. Everything was so thoughtfully crafted and incredibly delicious. The service was impeccable. Every staff member is attentive and passionate about the restaurant. Kevin, a partner in the restaurant, took especially good care of us. We can’t wait to return to New York to dine here again, and in the meantime we will be recommending Sushi Ouji to everyone we know.

Beautiful omakase, each dish had good ingredients and nice flavors which were on the subtler side. Portions were a little smaller than some other spots but overall was really good, and service was very helpful. We finished with tea and dessert which was a cheesecake.
