Sushi Ryusei — Restaurant in New York

Updated 08/24/20: added some omakase pictures and extra details on other food items!

Amazing quality, even on simple rolls. (note: have done delivery and they recently added some sidewalk seating with nice plants so check them out in person if you can!)

So far have tried - Omakase: can’t go wrong trusting the chef! Sushi Deluxe (highlights: seasoned anchovy, salmon with skin, fried oyster) Tekka special don: incredible tuna variants over rice, there is a charcoal smoked/seared piece that must be tasted!!! Ikura (great, always a good sign for a sushi place) Salmon Special Don (a variety of amazing salmon sashimi over sushi rice) Tempura Udon (broth was super light and delicate, great option for those not looking for a heavy meal) Baby burdock roll: almost like a pickled carrot but not sweet, a great palate cleanser.

Overall I'd say this place definitely outperforms for the price point, even more so considering delivery. If you're in Murray Hill location you should check it out if you...

Got the 15 piece omakase here which is $140 and it was an amazing experience. My bf and I made a reservation for 5:30pm and it was so peaceful in the restaurant as it had just opened. It definitely got more crowded throughout our meal. We really enjoyed the peacefulness so we would def book another 5-6pm slot.

Fresh fish, beautiful presentation, the chef explained what each dish was when he served it. We didn't feel rushed at all and the servings were nicely spaced in time. The uni from Hokkaido was especially amazing and the toro was so good. I love omakase experiences because sometimes we're served fishes that we normally wouldn't order ourselves so it's always a new experience. Reminded us of our omakase experience in Japan and it was such a nostalgic dinner. I have recommended this to friends looking for omakase in NYC. The restaurant is also in a less touristy area so it's peaceful walking there too. So glad we...

Hands down, this was the best food I’ve had in Midtown — top tier from start to finish. The Spicy Tuna was incredibly fresh and full of flavor. The Tatsuta Age was perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with a squeeze of lemon that brought the whole dish to life. The Salmon Yuzu Soy melted in my mouth — every bite was packed with rich, balanced flavor. The Chicken Teriyaki was also delicious, tender, and perfectly cooked.

And let’s talk about dessert — I’m not usually a big cheesecake fan, but the Yuzu Cheesecake completely won me over. Light, citrusy, and refreshing. The drink recommendations were spot on as well.

Haruki, the owner, personally greeted me when I walked in, which was such a warm touch. The service overall was excellent — the staff was polite, attentive, and genuinely welcoming.

I work nearby and can’t believe I hadn’t discovered this place sooner. Highly recommended — I’ll...
