omakase room by maaser

A nice intimate spot for some omakase. I came here with a friend for dinner one evening and we had a lovely time. The omakase chef was so polite and kind. The place was clean and minimalist. We decided on the 12 course omakase set with sake and had a great time. All of the cuts of fish were so fresh and delicious. The nigiri pieces themselves were fairly straightforward and simple; there wasn't many unique garnishes or pairing. However, it was still delicious.

W0W. Just WOW. Just go and make yourself a happy camper for the rest of the day. This IS a pretty little room and bright. It is very quiet though and you feel like you're in a spa waiting for a massage. We went at noon on a Saturday and it wasn't busy at all. There was one customer already having lunch, then us...and another person entered shortly after us. Apparently he's a regular customer there and followed them...guess they were at a different location before. We all chose the 12 course meal bc we had dinner at 6PM but then ended up ordering a la carte bc IT WAS SO GOOOOD. My a la carte choices were the truffle lobster, wagyu, and uni. The chef doesn't really interact...and the girl server looked like she just woke up but was sweet in her own way otherwise. I appreciated the heavy pour of wine. I guess the chef had a tiny bit of language barrier maybe...but he did do a funny gesture with the blow torch pretending to shoot me lol. Thanks, Chef. We will def look forward to returning if ever back in NYC. Oh! The man and my son Do Not like Uni but The Chef certainly changed their mind with his selection. It was soOooo fresh and delightful! He said it's almost like ice cream and he wasn't lying!

What a delicious experience! Our party of 4 made reservations online and was lucky enough to have to restaurant booked out. We got the 12 course omakase set. And we enjoyed every course. Some of the standout dishes were the king salmon and lobster with truffle butter sauce. They make the sauce in house and it paired perfectly with the fresh lobster, while not overwhelming rhetorical light taste. Another standout dish was the uni, it was so fresh and sweet. Not to mention the amount of uni was piled high. The wagyu was also a hit, maaser char broiled the meat to perfection. Would highly recommend this spot! My family had a great time and maaser was a joy.

Wonderful Omakase at a reasonable price. We had the 17-course menu for $135 and it was a great experience. The fish was very fresh and pieces were so creative. Service was friendly and attentive in a very comfortable, intimate room. We were there for a late lunch on a Saturday afternoon when the restaurant was relatively quiet which gave it a very private atmosphere.

I had the pleasure of experiencing the omakase (17 piece) at this restaurant, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations. My boyfriend had been raving about it, so when a friend offered to take me while he was at work, I couldn't pass up the opportunity. The quality of the fish was exceptional--so fresh and tender--that each bite was a delight. While the preparation leaned towards the modern and inventive side rather than traditional, the risks they took truly paid off. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and the overall experience. Considering the price point, I believe it's definitely worth a try. There were several standout pieces, but my personal favorite was the wagyu spoon--it was like a flavor rollercoaster in my mouth, with its soft, tender texture and incredible taste. Truly a memorable omakase.

Love my omakase here, simply tasty and perfect. The service is welcoming and super friendly. The sushi courses are just perfect.

Always solid omakase spot with attentive service. A few unique pieces that made the experience better. I came in the afternoon so there was not a huge crowd.

This was my second omakase experience and I loved it. Experienced the largest course option. Delicious! The staff were attentive and the chef was entertaining and so precise. It was lovely to watch. Each course is an experience. Highly recommend for an intimate evening.

We did the 17 course and wow everything was very solid! Out of the bunch the eel, squid and a5 is to die for! Service was great,and the ambiance was intimate which I prefer! Will come back again!

Excellent! I've been around the omakase block ha and this one nailed it. Highly recommend. Loved the baby yellowtail, medium tuna, and lobster (sauce was fantastic)!
