  • All Chinese manned / owned / run, but good quality. Ouji has a bit of a fine dining experience feel for the price.

  • There are all traditional omakase where the restaurant proprietor is Japanese. They may have chefs from other countries, but their chefs are all people who have worked in high end sushi for years.

  • replying to u/Free_Entertainer4191: I’ve been cross referencing this list with names I’ve been seeing around. Sushi Mumi, Domo, Sushi Teru just are a few examples. It’s insane how many of these places there are in Manhattan.

    Personally I’ve liked Sushi Ouji and Mitsuru in the reasonable price range.

  • replying to u/virtual_adam: I’m of the very unpopular opinion that sugarfish beats most options under $200. At some point the value just comes from their scale Sugarfish set menus maybe be boring/repetitive, but they usually have some pretty amazing add on options. If you want to spend $100 I would do a $46 trust me, and add $50 worth of add ons. You will get an experience that you would have to pay double for elsewhere

    Sushi Ouji is far better in this price range.
