The Fuku Omakase experience is designed to last for one hour (60 minutes), so please make sure to be punctual. New Yorkers in the know gravitate towards establishments like Fuku, a hidden gem of a restaurant. With only nine seats available, this cozy spot offers an exceptional omakase dining experience in a relaxed setting. The menu is a masterpiece in itself, featuring fresh fish sourced directly from Japan and expertly crafted by a team of chefs with illustrious backgrounds from some of the finest sushi restaurants in the area. Our approach to dining is dynamic—our menu changes daily to showcase the finest and freshest ingredients. Given that we do not currently have a beer and wine license, BYOB is permitted without incurring any additional fees. We do offer typical beverages like Perrier and other flavored sparkling waters, Japanese Rice Green Tea, Japanese Oolong Tea, and so forth. (NOTE: For BYOB, please just bring one bottle of alcohol per person; no tequilas, XO, or other beverages over 30% alcohol content.) (ONLY the 9:00 PM section can stay until 10:30PM since it's the last section. (1.5 Hour)
“Great first omakase experience! It’s BYOB so we brought and got served sake. 13 course for 75$ is a great price and you get to taste various flavors. Small and cozy bar, and staff were friendly and attentive.”
“I happened to walk past this window and noticed this little restaurant. Since the next seating hadn’t started yet, I was the first one to sit down and got a unique experience. I was able to watch the chef prepare the ingredients from start to finish — you could truly see how fresh everything was. They were very friendly and even offered me complimentary sake. The food was delicious, and the flavor combinations were perfectly balanced. Next time, I’m definitely bringing my friends with me.”
“We just attended their special Valentine’s Day course. The fish was very fresh, and I really loved the balance of flavors in each pairing. The scallop with lime was my absolute favorite. At the end, we even received a thoughtful gift from them, which was such a nice touch. We will definitely be coming back!”
“This place was AWESOME! Everyone who worked there was so friendly, warm, and knowledgeable about sushi. The environment is very intimate and felt like you were transported to Japan. The food was amazing - fish was so fresh, the combination of flavors was delicious and had a good mix of traditional and experimental pieces. The owner spoke about food so passionately and it was such a joy to see him perform his craft. Pictured are some of the favorite pieces. Every aspect of this meal was absolutely perfect!”
“We tried the casual, 60-min omakase at Fuku Omakase. It’s a small space and they book 60-min sessions every hour, so when you arrive, you wait in the small space right behind guests sitting and dining at the sushi counter. The service was great. It’s BYOB, which I’d forgotten, but they had extra sake, which they kindly served us. There are some seats where the air conditioner blows directly, but we were sitting in the corner and we were ok. With one of the corner seats, because there is distance between the sushi chef and your plate, they put the sushi on another plate for you to take and put on your plate—which felt a bit odd. The sushi was good. They put on fancy toppings like foie gras and caviar, which I actually would prefer without, and for them to make the overall price lower. I also didn’t love the A5 Wagyu Beef sushi. (and they used the term “cow” on their menu, which was unusual) But the Botan Ebi with Uni was so delicious. And we had a Toro Taku hand roll instead of their usual hand roll, which I also enjoyed. Overall, we had a good experience. If you’re looking for a quick sushi meal with a variety of flavors, you could give it a try.”
