Master Critic Review

Omakase Sushi Dairo 8.3
Gramercy
A refined Gramercy/East Village edge omakase counter where the chef leans into clean Edomae fundamentals with a few modern touches. The rice seasoning and careful temperature control make each nigiri feel deliberate, and the pacing stays calm even on busy nights.
Must-Try Dishes: Chef’s omakase set, Otoro nigiri, Uni hand roll
