Will forever love going to sushi of gari They aren’t trying to be “authentic Japanese style”.. they have their own twist... on things, pairing the nigiri with delicious toppings! Know what to expect! Everything tastes phenomenal… the omakase isalways incredible. Pictured is the Gari Special sushi dinner set :) Read more
Lunch on Saturday with friends, we walked in mid afternoon and got a table. We had the menu option where you basically you keep... getting served until you tell them to stop. The food was very good indeed, small morsels but all in all a fine meal, worth avisit when in the upper west side NYC Read more
Worth the money. Beef tataki is hidden appetizer gem. Their chirashi was a little light on fish to me but the fish I received... was extremely fresh. All their ingredients are fresh and extra care is put into their delivery packaging. If you are eatingthere for the first time you really must open with their Signature Sushi or Sashimi. The Hirame Truffle is ABSURDLY good!! TheSalmon Yaki Tomato is playful and works well together. All of the Signature Sushi I have had has been well executed and only inrare instances was the fish itself overpowered. Read more
Perfect sushi, innovative twists on great traditional Japanese classics. The tasting menu is expensive but very unique,... definitely not something you would find at any sushi place. The service is good without being too much and the atmosphere isvery intimate and cozy. Read more
One of the best omakase sushi you can find in manhattan :) (in terms of both price and taste)! Some aren’t traditional, but... they are VERY delicious Read more
I am Japanese and wanted some authentic sushi. But the two non-Japanese speaking hostesses at the front didn't even pay... attention to me when we went in on time of our reservation and took us to a table with no smile. I felt very unwelcome. OurJapanese server and the Japanese hostess were very attentive. Sushi was very good but drink menu was very limited and overpriced. Ambience was not so great, they squeezed in too many tables for that space. We were feeling clostophobic. Read more
Gari is open again after a long renovation ( to the building itself, not so much the restaurant). The space is actually smaller... now as they lost a row of tables between the sushi bar and the windows; the big table is gone too. Space aside, the sushi was asfresh and delicious as ever. Great to taste all your old favorites. Still outrageously expensive, but a fun and guilty pleasurenonetheless. Read more
