Wow this omakase was so worth it for the quality of fish and price! We chose the 12 course for $65 which is a steal! This omakase had variety and range of options. Everyone's sushi craving's would be satisfied since the omakase offers: Yellow Tail, Lean Tuna, Chopped Tuna, Spotted Prawn, Salmon Roe, Albacore, Scallop, Miso Cod, Fatty Tuna, Salmon, Surf & Turf (Wagyu with Uni), and BBQ eel. My favorites were the Miso Cod (better than Nobu any day) Albacore, Fatty Tuna, and Surf & Turf! The fish slices were fat and generous and I like how it was efficient too with 30 minutes in and out!

Auto gratuity for everyone. The real price is $95 not $60 something.The rice was the worst I've ever had. It was so overpowering (vinegary) and there was wayyyyyy too much. It's not just bad for omakase it bad sushi in general. My local sushi shop that sells nigiri for $2 a piece is better than this.The pieces of fish were tiny and not good quality. The uni and wagyu was greasyyyyy and way too heavy. There was nothing special about the pieces, just regular nigiri.The music was way too loud and the sushi chef was too fast with the pieces.

We had an awesome time here! Chef Koichi did an amazing job on the 12 piece omakase set ($65 each)! We had an 8pm reservation which we were a little late to but it wasn't a problem (they did call to check). The food came out pretty quickly which others have said as well. We ordered drinks and took our time so the overall dinner took about 1.5 hrs. We ordered a few things a la carte, one that was recommended, the "Big Mac" and then toro. The Big Mac was absolutely delicious but came with a $25 per piece price tag. It has uni, wagyu, scallop, and toro so it was a tasty but expensive bite! The fatty tuna was good ($12) but as expected. Overall, we had a great time and I would come back. I would recommend ordering the 17 course because 12 was not quite enough for us to be full.

Had the 17 course omakase, which was overall very good. Reservations are highly recommended as it was a full house. There was only one seat for a walk in, that's how busy it gets. Although when you book, it says 60 minutes, all the pieces for the omakase is out in about 35 minutes. You can definitely stay around for drinks or dessert, chatting with the people in your party. Each piece was prepared and presented in such a manner that reminded me much of my time in Japan. The 17 course was $100 which is quite reasonable for the amount of food you get, you get quality food and service.

Life changing!! If you have any doubts about this place, let this be your sign to come here to dine! I feel in love with the chef because everything was delicious like beyond any expectations we had before coming here. It's hidden away in the back of a cute shop and reservations only, if I remember correctly. All the other staff were great too but I was focused on the man that made my heart sing with his food! Dramatic, yes! Honest review, hell yes! Go!

Pretty decent experience - I've been a few years ago when it was $50 for 12 pieces and it is now $70. They do have a BOGO until end of September which we purchased ahead of time and made a reservation with via Opentable. We arrived around 8PM on Monday and waited in the hotel lobby that served as the entrance until they were ready to seat our round of diners. It was a bit cramped and dark - they really tried to maximize the space. The music is a bit loud and jarring but nothing too bad! Our chef was very sweet and walked us through each nirigi and where each ingredient was from! The favorites were the very unassuming albacore which is torched, and the surf n turf. It was served at a good pace. We opted out of the drinks menu and they were sweet enough to give us sake shots on the house!They weirdly wouldn't allow my friend to wait at the counter for me while I used the singular bathroom in the hotel lobby while they let another person wait for their partner. Awkward lol.

I am only sad that I didn't start coming here sooner because this omakase spot is one of the best around! The quality is wonderful and the price is even better at only $60 for 12 courses.There are various locations and they all have a speakeasy vibe with limited seating. Due to this, be sure to make reservations when possible, which was very easy to do. This is a quick one hour seating experience, but I never felt rushed and was always just excited for my next course. If you come early, you can hang out in their lounge for some drinks (where you can also hang out afterwards too). The entire space has a 90's hip hop vibe with album covers as coasters and a big graffiti painting for Biggie on the wall. Even the playlist blasting takes you to that era of music.They served many amazing nigiris course after course. The flavors and preparation was well done to bring out the best of each fish. I was surprised there was even a Wagyuni (surf n turf), which usually is extra at other omakase spots. Since we came for a birthday, they even offered a free glass of sake for everyone who was also celebrating something. In addition, you can get an extra complimentary sake with Yelp check-in too! This is easily one of my favorite omakases in New York and can't wait to come back! Great food, service, and vibes all around.

Such a fun and different omakase. This is a chain that is blowing up everywhere. The omakase is reasonably priced, delicious and the drinks were strong, too!The style of this omakase has its pros and cons compared to a traditional, which is why it is more affordable. You watch the chef prepare each roll, but everything is already sliced up and prepped so it takes them no time to make it. There is loud music playing in the background so you can't hear a word they are saying when explaining the roll to you.The music was on point though and I love the hip hop decor. Again, it is just very different! We loved the salmon with yuzu and chopped up fatty tuna the most. The actual dinner lasted about 40minutes and they use the remaining time to ask if you want any additional a la carte items.12 pieces goes by extremely fast. Since everything is semi prepped they are able to whip up the next roll a couple minutes after you finish the last one. Again, pros and cons. Regardless, such a fun experience and I would recommend checking out sushi by bou! Delicious sushi and fun/different vibes for an affordable price!

For an excellent and reasonably priced omakase experience in New York, Sushi by Bou stands out! It was my first and definitely won't be my last. They provide a stylish, intimate setting, and highest quality sushi tasting that was delicious and new to me. The chef was hilarious with quick remarks and sense of humor. He provided a memorable show as he prepared each piece of sushi. Waitress was very helpful with selecting the right sake for the tasting (wish I remembered the name) making it a great dining experience. The omakase menu is robust and not overly complicated. Be sure to check the specials on the wall. Price brought me in as it's reasonable to get started before heading to the more expensive options around the city. I would definitely go again!

We got the deal of 2 for 1 - 12 course omakase. If it's full priced, we would skip it as we thought the quality and portion is smaller than other places we've been to. Drinks were delicious. The yelp check in for free shot does not apply if you already got a deal off of the omakase. Some of our favorite pieces were scallops, eel, surf and turf, and miso cod. The chef was very kind and introduced each piece. It's a very small place tucked away in a hotel.
