10Best Says

While the Upper West side location might have you assuming an expensive pricetag, Sushi Yasaka is committed to delicious Japanese food that doesn't break the bank. Open since 2011, the diverse menu is clustered into groups, from noodles to maki hand rolls to a la carte tempura. Beautifully cut pieces of fish seem to melt in your mouth in this understated, dimly lit restaurant. It is also a great place to go to try Omakase: a lovely assortment of aquatic creatures for your dining pleasure. They even have a mini-Omakase for under $25 which provides a nice array of the chef's selection.

EXPERT TIPS BY: Maria Lisella

Japanese: "Sushi Yasaka is small and crowded, so unless you want to spend the majority of your evening waiting to eat, make a reservation on Open Table."

Best for Japanese Because: People in New York like to eat well without breaking the bank and Sushi Yasaka makes both of these dreams possible.
