Refined Japanese w/ omakase counter & unique wine list. Chef formerly of Sushi Yasuda. Great for special occasions or casual neighborhood eats.
Willa Moore reviews Mitsuru, a Greenwich Village Japanese restaurant with an omakase counter, praising its sea bass tempura and handrolls while noting its dual appeal as both a special occasion spot and a casual neighborhood haunt.
Experience refined Japanese dining at this Greenwich Village gem, helmed by a former Sushi Yasuda chef. Whether you're indulging in the omakase or savoring expertly crafted handrolls and delicate sea bass tempura, this spot offers both a special occasion ambiance and a welcoming neighborhood feel. Don't miss their unique wine list, curated by the Parcelle team, for a perfect pairing.
This Japanese restaurant offers both omakase and a la carte options. Standout dishes include the sea bass tempura and various handrolls. While some find the omakase selection standard, the a la carte menu is generally well-regarded, with the Unagi Don being a recommended choice for a solo meal. Some lighter fare like grilled edamame and marinated kale are noted as potentially fussy.
"Highly recommended dishes include the sea bass tempura with ginger tartar sauce and various handrolls. The Unagi Don is also a great choice for a solo meal."
