" This was my first time at an omakase restaurant, and it was truly remarkable! The chefs were incredibly passionate and explained everything detail by detail, which added to the experience. All of the fish tasted unbelievably fresh, and the dishes were beautifully crafted. I can say the atmosphere felt relaxed which made the evening truly special. A bit on the pricey side but worth it for the quality you get. I would recommend this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Omakase Shihou last weekend and, wow, what a fantastic meal! The fish quality is top-notch, and every dish was well-balanced with flavors. The staff was wonderfully welcoming, but the timing of the courses could be improved. We were left waiting between some of the dishes which made the pace feel awkward. Nevertheless, I'd say it was one of the best sushi experiences in NYC, and I'm looking forward to returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" Omakase Shihou is everything I hoped it would be! When you step inside, you're greeted by a beautiful ambiance that sets the mood for the meal. The chef’s knowledge and skill shone through in each dish we tried. The ingredients felt really fresh, and every bite was a new revelation. One minor hiccup was perhaps the wait for our sake, but the staff was friendly. I'm already looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a lovely experience at Omakase Shihou! The sushi quality was outstanding, with an array of flavors that danced on my palate. Service was friendly and attentive. I appreciated how the chefs educated us on each dish as it was served. The only drawback was that we felt somewhat rushed towards the end of our meal, leading to an awkward finishing. Nonetheless, I would wholeheartedly recommend visiting their restaurant. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Omakase Shihou was a delightful experience. The food was fresh and artfully presented, and it felt like a genuine omakase. The chefs were exceptionally engaging and took pride in their work, which was refreshing. However, while the atmosphere was inviting, I found the turning times for subsequent courses a bit slow, which detracted from the otherwise wonderful experience. I would definitely return for the quality of the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was by far one of the best omakase experiences I've had! The chefs really knew what they were doing. The sushi was fresh and creative. It was fascinating to see the meticulous preparation process! While the intimate atmosphere was lovely, it did tend to be a bit noisy when full. My only significant negative was the lengthy wait times for the meal to begin, which disappointed me considering the high costs. Overall, it was well worth it for the quality of food provided. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently went to Omakase Shihou with a group of friends, and we had a fantastic time! The sushi was incredibly fresh, and the attention from the staff was commendable. We did feel a bit rushed at times, but the excitement of trying each new dish kept us engaged. The atmosphere was lively, which added to the experience, but I would suggest going on a quieter night if you're looking for a more intimate setting. " (*Curated Review*)
