Shinn West — all mentions

in:Upscale restaurants near Broadway that take reservations and aren't a tourist trap3 pts
replying to u/quackus: If you're serious about being willing to do a 10-15 minute walk, there's a ton of stuff in that area. Within your proposed cuisines: Thai - Chalong; Pure Thai Cookhouse Korean - Mari; Kochi Sushi - Shinn West Mediterranean - Marseille; there are also a bunch of corporate Greek restaurants on or around 6th Ave. (e.g., Avra, Milos, Limani, etc.) that, while expensive, are also delicious For what it's worth Le Rock (French), the bar room at The Modern (less fancy New American than the main dining room), 53 (broadly Chinese fusion) and Blue Willow (Hunan) are generally very good.
“12 course Omakase for $69 is a great deal, the quality was amazing as well”

replying to u/mawajay87: These all look great. It looks like Shinn/Sanyuu are a little more expensive compared to 35 West. Is the quality worth the price increase? If you had to pick one, which would you pick?
“On the other hand, Shinn/Sanyuu are proper (but very budget friendly) omakase joints.”

replying to u/eMotive11: What price? You can get an amazing experience for like 70 a person at shinn east/west, or spend 400 a person at something like Icca and have a once in a lifetime meal, or a million in between (or more expensive).

replying to u/YayaSanogoals99: With the caveat that reservations can be a complete pain in the ass: \- Kafana/Ca Qa Quelle/Chama Mama - Excellent Serbian/Albanian and Georgian food (putting them together because it's a similar vibe of a lot of really well done heavy meat, wine and bread. Inb4 some Balkan nationalist yells at me) \- Shinn East - Excellent, and *relatively* inexpensive Omakase. The place is tiny and you sit right at the counter getting piece after piece of fantastic Sushi. Just don't be late if you get a resy \- Keens - The ultimate New York steakhouse imho, very old school vibe. If you wanna venture into Brooklyn Gage & Tolner is pretty damn good as well \- The Odeon - Solid French bistro, good for a morning brunch before exploring Tribeca.
