Tomoe Sushi

4.5

About this business

This tiny, local restaurant in Soho has a strong following of devoted sushi-lovers from the neighborhood. The decor is simple, but the freshness and selection of fish is what keeps diners coming back. For non-sushi lovers, there are some good dumplings and cold noodle dishes. Reasonable prices and good service make this one of the most affordable sushi restaurants in this expensive neighborhood.

Best Sushi in NYC – Believe the hype! Tomoe Sushi is one of, if not the best, sushi restaurants in NYC. If you want to avoid the long lines, arrive at 5:00 PM and have an early dinner. There's nothing fancy about the interior, but the sushi makes up for the lack of ambience. I have sushi several times a week, and I have to say the Tomoe Sushi is freshest sushi in all of New York.

Nevermind the wait, not worth the $$$ – Tomoe definitely provides its diners with excellent quality sushi and sashimi, although the quality does not justify the exhobitant costs. Without appetizers or desserts, we spent $100 for two people. While impressed with the flavor and tenderness of the fish, the quality is not so much higher than other nearby sushi restaurants and significantly pricier (for a more reasonably-priced alternative and a far better overall dining experience, try Yama on Carmine Street). If you dine as I d... read more

It's worth the wait! – This is definitely one of my all time favorite Japanese restaurant. The line outside can be outrageous at times but once inside your mouth will water as dish after dish of the freshest sushi is served (not necessarily at your table.. haha). Its just fabulous! Don't let the long wait scare you.. its a must try!

Why is this place popular?! – I should've taken the advice of the previous reviewer and skipped this place, but I was hopeful. The wait was only half an hour on a Friday night. We sat at the sushi bar, which was more private than the tables. Having started with a great cooked toro appetizer, we looked forward to the entrees. I ordered the sushi-sashimi combo and my husband ordered 9 pieces a la carte. Size-wise, I was impressed, but to our disappointment, nothing was good. We are sushi connesuiers and know what different typ... read more

Overrated! Not worth 1 1/2 hour wait – We went to this restaurant based on CitySearch recommendations and I am bummed that they were not more accurate. We stood outside in the cold for an hour-and-a-half, (no joke), to be seated at a tiny table for two, smack next to two other couples. We could all hear one another's conversations as well as reach over and pick food off one another's plates if we were so inclined. Our waiter was very nice and accommodating, but we really came here to have good raw fish, and we DID NOT find i... read more

if there is heaven you are at tomoe!!! – i could be sitting with the devil and still be in heaven!!! i would even sit with my dad again if i were here! I love this place and everyone i took here has made to a point that this is the "best sushi" and we need to go again. i think i was 9 when i first came here now i'm 25. i've travelled and tried to find better but nothing comes close, especially for the quality and price. there are no words to describe it!!! growing up i told myself i need to get an amex card.. that's the only... read more

Fresh sushi – Sushi was fresh -- the sushi / sashimi combination offers such a variety of fish - yellowtail, tuna, salmon, salmon tar-tar, rolls, shrimp, squids, scallops, etc. It was definitely worth every dime.
