Description

The omakase ("chef’s choice") menu at Sushi Azabu’s intimate, 10-seat sushi bar is a transporting experience. Secretly tucked away in the intimate basement of a historical Greenwich Street Ironworks building in TriBeCa, Sushi Azabu’s traditional Edo-mae style sushi showcases Japanese food at its best: purity, seasonality, and perfect simplicity. The omakase menu, featuring only the day’s freshest fish and ingredients, guarantees to be the best of the best.

Part dinner, part show and a meditative Zen experience, dinner at Sushi Azabu is nothing short of spectacular. Every aspect of your meal will be meticulously prepared, using only the highest quality ingredients. Sushi Azabu’s sushi chefs are trained in Japan, and about 80% of the restaurant’s fish is flown in from the Land of the Rising Sun four times a week to ensure peak seasonality and perfect freshness. The rice is special too: Sushi Azabu uses a unique blend of Japanese sushi rice that utilizes the previous year’s harvest to avoid overly high water content. Even the soy sauce is house-made and is infused with Mirin, kelp, and dried bonito shavings.

From your seat at the intimate sushi bar, you’ll be able to watch the sushi chefs pamper each piece of sushi with a brush of sauce or a scattering of scallions before presenting it to you on your plate. Like a well-performed symphony, your meal will progress from Starters to Sashimi, a Uni Tasting to a cooked course, Sushi, Miso Soup and a Dessert finale.
