- HanzAugust 20, 2012Perhaps one of New York's most unique & exciting sushi experiences. For veterans, lovers, and those who are new to the art, this is a must do and the Omakase special is a great place to start!Upvote2Downvote
- Quality of sushi is outstanding- would rank Gari at the top of the places in Manhattan. There are no bargains here. Get salmon sushi with roasted tomato and spicy scallop hand roll.UpvoteDownvote
- The Corcoran GroupNovember 4, 2011Like it’s sister restaurants, they’re serving some of the freshest and tastiest Sushi in all of Manhattan – it’s like you’re in Tokyo. Splurge on the chef’s omakase.Upvote1Downvote
- Nic CopeDecember 26, 2011They do vegetarian omakase upon request! Get the omakase at the bar. 14 veggie pieces for ~$50 or 14 seafood pieces for ~$90. Friendly service and the best sushi I've had make it worth every cent.Upvote1Downvote
- Adrian LDecember 23, 2015Only come here if you can budget about $100 for omakase. You will not be disappointed. My favorite was the double uni - one from Japan, one from Cali, stacked on top of one another. Supreme.UpvoteDownvote
- Halstead PropertyJuly 25, 2011Freshness is the name of the game when it comes to sushi. The lobster tempura was outstanding, and for those who aren’t fish-lovers, the breast of duckling was extremely tender and perfectly flavored.UpvoteDownvote
- Andrea Weiss WeissJuly 10, 2013Would eat here every day if I could! The fish is extremely fresh and you can taste the difference. cute/cozy atmosphere too. Hajiki seaweed salad is great.Upvote2Downvote
- Jane ChuMay 7, 2012The tuna here is really good and overall the fish are all fresh. However, I go mainly for the tuna. This location is the best imo of all the Gari restaurants in NYC.UpvoteDownvote
- Jason H.March 25, 2017It's very good but IF you're going to do the omakase go to the East Side location. Much more wow factor there. At this location - just order off the menu.UpvoteDownvote
- JennaSeptember 13, 2011Sensational! The. Best. Sushi. Ever. And do not fail to try an utterly amazing seaweed salad either. End your meal here with mochi and smile all the way home.Upvote2Downvote
- Salmon Tomato sushi is a must... and if you really want to splurge, it's worth getting the omakase... an unforgettable experience!Upvote2Downvote
- Raymond MannJuly 9, 2013Get the omakase. But also ask them to surprise you if your still hungry. Easily one of the most inventive sushi houses in NYC.UpvoteDownvote
- BenMay 6, 2015Best sushi in the upper west side, hands down. Great selection of sake - expect to pay for it though.UpvoteDownvote

- Lucy H.February 27, 2017"Fusion" omakase meant one piece of sushi had a warm tomato topping. Good pieces didn't make up for the bad ones IMO.UpvoteDownvote

- LindsJune 6, 2012The wait staff are literally depressed if you sit at the sushi bar and try to ask for anything other than sushi. Don't make them sad, it's DEF worth it to just go with whatever they recommend.UpvoteDownvote
