Comment: One of the better and more unique omakase ive had in a while. staff was friendly and fun, everyone there was a chill vibe, and the food was actually quite fantastic. good cuts of fish and very different from your traditional omakase. it does move fast so youre in and out in a little over an hour. the music was fun and vibey and the small bar (probably about 10-12 people total) all good vibes. the chefs make it fun for everyone and they keep filling up your sake everytime your glass is empty which is great! all in all a unique and super fun dining experience. the $99 cash only price for 15 courses isnt bad either - they also take zelle! it kind of feels like a best kept secret because you can still get reservations on open table... for now

Comment: Absolutely amazing 👏One of the coolest and must do omakase. For 99$ its more than worth it. 15 course with non stop cavier 6 appetizers and unlimited sake cant be beaten easily. Staffs are friendly funny and make your dining experience out of the world. Will be back again and again.

Comment: Fun place. We had the last time slot on a sunday. Great food. The Thai influence on some of the pieces were amazing. Never ending sake and at the end of the service, the karaoke came out. Never had this much fun at a dinner before. Cant wait for a Houston location to pop up.

Comment: Amazing environment, perfect for a group. We had a bunch of people visiting, they loved it. Omakase quality is 4 stars because they put in ton of effort to plating and garnish, fish quality was fine, you’re going to this mostly for atmosphere and a party environment, which went above and beyond for quality and price point. Plan a large group in advance!

Comment: I’ve dined in restaurants in 23 different countries. Everything from a street cart in India to a Michelin star experience in Copenhagen. I’ve had some truly epic and unforgettable dining experiences. But this place, this unassuming, unexpected gem of gems in Queens… absolutely knocked my socks off. Imagine an out of this world omakase experience combined with your favorite birthday party at your best friends house. That’s Sushi On Me. Thank you for a memory I’ll treasure for years to come 🙏

Comment: TLDR: Sushi On Me is not a purist edomae omakase. So if youre looking for that - this is not the place for you. Think Sammys Romanian Steak and Sushi Dojo had a love child. The nigiri while fusion-ish is tasty and the sake will pour all hour long. Come with an open mind, an empty stomach and prepare yourself for a HBO style profanity-laced hour and youll have a great time.I was not sure what to expect when I got to Sushi on Me. Its in the basement along this stretch of Jackson Heights, it has a speakeasy dive bar feel to it. While the service is short, it was an hour packed with lots of f-bombs, interesting Thai-ish sushi courses and incredibly energetic hosts. Chef Palm and Yammy (of course we cannot forget Sake Boy) were very good at keeping the energy flowing. We went at one of the later seatings so I applaud Chef Palm for still being vertical and able to serve considering how much alcohol he probably consumes at night.Bottom-line, it was a fun time. It was the polar opposite of what a place like Sushi Ginza Onodera (RIP) is like to dine at. I enjoyed the eel Penang curry along with all the other interesting courses. What I love most about Sushi on Me though is the authenticity of the experience.Im not talking about the style of the nigiri, this is nowhere near an Edomae omakase. Im talking about Chef Palm and the way he entertains and serves. This is not a show, this is literally Palm and his boy, Yammy - just being themselves and having a blast at the counter. I applaud the unfiltered sincerity of it all and they seem to book out pretty consistently. So you have to give them credit for carving out a niche concept for themselves in the omakase world. Theres probably as many omakases as Starbucks now so thats saying something.

Comment: I celebrated my and my best friends birthday there. The food was delicious. It was my first Omakase experience and it was so fun. The plates are small but after 15 courses (!) They get filling. They also provide unlimited Sake. The ambiance is so fun, music, jokes, the chefs vibes are great. They make it very entertaining. I would definitely recommend.

The chefs are a lot of fun, there’s unlimited sake, and the bites are quite innovative and tasty.The whole experience is about an hour and costs $89 before tax and tip. Everyone sits at the bar. Highly recommend.

Comment: Absolutely phenomenal omakase. 12/10. Each bite was perfection, some of the best food Ive ever had. Everything is perfectly prepared and fresh with a good variety of options. This is a great entry level omakase as while there were a variety of textures, nothing was unexpected and most of the bites were elevated versions of sushi youd find elsewhere.There is a party vibe with a curated playlist that is timed to each dish on the weeknights, and over the weekend they have live piano jazz. Cash only, $89 plus tip, and there is limited seating so you need to make reservations. Their sign is hard to see, but look for the address number and then go downstairs.

Comment: Ive been here twice for two different occasions and both times have been a wonderful experience. The chefs are super kind and interactive with customers as it is extremely limited seating so make sure to plan far in advance if you want to dine here. The fish is very fresh and they have a lovely party vibe so if thats not your thing, make note of it for when youre in the mood for that. $89 for 1 hour of unlimited sake and 10 courses which honestly is one of the best deals you can get in NYC. Cash only and make sure to tip well if you visit! 12/10 would come again!

Comment: This place is not your traditional omakase experience (but dare I say better!). The courses themselves were mostly delicious, especially the salmon, but the highlight is definitely the atmosphere and entertainment. The chefs create a genuinely fun experience for everyone there, and with great music to boot. All you can drink sake can be dangerous for those who can’t handle their drinks (like me) so enjoy responsibly 😂 Overall, 11/10 experience, and we’ll definitely be back!

The chefs and host were very fun and kept the sake flowing. Loved all 15 of the courses!It was under a Chinese restaurant, but it was easy to find. Follow the blasting pop music down the stairs in the front and youll see the bright neon sign at the entrance.

Comment: Came here with a group of friends and it was such a fun and unique experience! This is not a traditional Omakase where you wait for the chef to hand you each piece, this is an interactive dining experience.The course is an hour long and they serve unlimited sake, the chefs are so fun- they joke, sing, and dance. They even hand feed you a piece of nigiri while playing a romantic song 🤣At the end of the course we the girls left with full stomachs but the guys were still hungry 😂Oh and make sure you bring enough cash as they are CASH only!

Comment: Believe the hype. This is the funnest omakase experience you will ever have. You wouldnt think that a place could perfectly combine quality fine dining with such a fun party atmosphere - but Sushi On Me does exactly that. The chefs and servers are all delightful, hilarious, attentive and determined to make sure you have a great night. This is aided by singalongs, socializing, stunning visual presentations, surprises that I wont spoil here and (of course) unlimited free sake. But heres the twist. The sushi is genuinely delicious. 15 courses of gorgeous mouthwatering rolls prepared before your eyes. The dining experience all takes place in an hour and (despite being quite full and quite drunk) I would have gladly stayed another hour. Easily one of the most memorable dining experiences of my life.

For the price, you get an excellent omakase course — you definitely wont leave hungry. All the different bites were well thought out, unique, and creative. Great party atmosphere for a special occasion, or just a memorable night out.

Comment: 10/10!!! This gem of a place I found out through Instagram and saw friends who went and said they had a great experience. So I had to go! I went for my birthday. I highly recommend for a birthday or special event with a group of people. It was all our first time experiencing a speakeasy omakase. From when you enter you feel like you’re in another world. The service was fantastic. The gentlemen were funny, kind and great energy. Truly enjoyed being served by them. The food was delicious and uniquely presented with unlimited sake. So be prepared for a good time, yummy food and to drink! Look forward to going again. Thank you sushi on me for a memorable birthday.

Comment: It was a little bit hard to find but knowing that you will need to go downstairs helps find the place. The atmosphere is that of a cozy speakeasy where you would relax for a little drink and maybe a snack or two. The entire dinner experience was fun and full of fish and sake. The chefs and host engage with you to keep the energy level up but not too much to draw attention away from the food. The food was amazing and simple where the only thing to do was lift it into your mouth. The pacing felt perfect and barely felt the time fly by. I see myself returning again in the future.

The boisterous band is a bit loud, but they accompany each dish beautifully. Its basically just a few guys running this place out of their basement - cash only!

The food was great, the service attentive and friendly and the atmosphere was chill and relaxed, theres no need to dress up so dress comfortably.The restaurant might take a few minutes looking for it as it doesnt have a sign but well worth the effort once you find it. It is located in the basement under a Chinese restaurant. Look for Snoop Dog and when you see him, then you have arrived at sushi on me.

The price is very reasonable/cheap for NYC, we paid around $120-130 per person as opposed to $200-250 for any other average omakase in Manhattan.I’m coming back for sure!To be clear, as other people mention in the reviews, this is not the most authentic omakase and it is more like a Thai fusion, but it is delicious. You are coming for the experience!

Comment: What a wild ride! The food is delicious and the experience is a non-stop party 🎉. The music is LOUD but sets the tone for an atmosphere of full throttle enjoyment. The staff are really amazing, funny, attentive, and friendly. Theyre not kidding when they advertise unlimited sake. I dont think my glass was ever empty for more than 30 seconds- you really set your own pace so if you want to get drunk you definitely will. This was as much of a show as it was a dining experience and I cant wait to go back!

Comment: Was lucky to snag a reservation on New Years, the morning of - since I’ve heard reservations need to be made far in advance! Sushi on Me is not your ordinary omakase place because Sake BOY serves you unlimited sake and he made sure our glass was always full! The menu consists of 15 courses for $89 before tax and tip. Note: they take CASH only!The moment you walk in- you already know you will be having a great time! It had such an amazing speakeasy clubbing vibe. The staff were fun, amazing and interactive. They really know how to have a good time and made the whole experience so much better! Their playlist consisted of old school throwbacks and after a few rounds of sake- you are guaranteed to go into karaoke mode!The CBD bubble and the use of a THC smoke machine for two of their appetizers was what stole the show! You can also taste the thai influence in some of their dishes, which made each piece super unique!This place is definitely worth the hype! Come and be prepared to have an amazing and unique omakase experience!

Comment: Food 4.5, Fun 6 . That averages to a 5 right ? Amazing chefs that are engaging . Omakase with a south east Asian twist. Everything was delicious with unlimited sake. The food isnt your top notch omakase but it sure was creative and quite yum. The best part was the staff. We all had a blast .

Comment: This is not a traditional omakase place or even authentic Japanese sushi. But that is not the point of a place like this. This is a GREAT place for celebrations or a very very good start to a night out with friends. Ive been here twice, once for a birthday and once to kick off a vacation week, and my friends and I all love it. The sushi is not the best quality, but they do very interesting takes on pan-Asian small bites -- sometimes theres a Thai kick, sometimes Chinese. Definitely not boring and not skimping on textures or big flavors or attempts at molecular gastronomy like smoke clouds or gas bubbles or edible foam. The all-you-can-drink sake is also not the best quality sake either -- pretty watered down, but drink enough (and they will keep pouring) and you will be trashed by the end of the meal. The star of this meal is the show of a meal itself, which is why this is such a great place to come for a dinner celebration. The chefs are joyous, hilarious and high-energy. There is a lot of random cursing, random stupid jokes, and a very 90s friendly soundtrack (it feels like the chefs are big into 90s karaoke). Seating is counter only, and each seating is about 90 minutes; they time things so the meal is over just before the next seating begins so they can squeeze in about 3 seatings per evening. We typically pay $117-119 pp including tax and tip, and honestly that is cheaper than other omakase places around NYC but a LOT LESS fun than these guys. Highly recommend; we made a reservation for our next dinner as we were leaving after our first time there!

Comment: Im not exactly unfamiliar to omakase sushi, having lived and worked in Japan before. Didnt expect an omakase sushi restaurant in Elmhurst of all places to be anything on par with my expectations, but I took a chance on this place after seeing all the rave reviews...this was by far the most...interesting?? rowdy??? avant garde??? ...definitely the best quality omakase sushi Ive experienced for the price without some items being alive before being butchered and served in front of you [I like fishing and clean my own catch, k?]. All the staff and chefs there genuinely seem interested in maintaining a friendly bar-like atmosphere and want you to feel like youre among friends.Just be warned: they will keep the sake flowing regardless of your ability to get home afterwards in the middle of a torrential downpour.

We pay 89$, worth every cent!!! If u think later it is probably cheap for the quality, the atmosphere and unique style of this little special place. If u re looking for a unique experience, unlimited sake, music all in one package that’s the place I would recommend everyone .

Comment: We went for a friends birthday and had an excellent time! It is very intimate, they seat everyone together at the bar (~15 people at a time). The sake is unlimited, music was on point, and the host and chefs really try to make it feel like a big, festive party. By the end of the night everyone was singing and clapping. The sushi was phenomenal. This was my first time at an omakase style restaurant, it is a little pricey but 100% worth it. I cant wait to find an excuse to go back.

Comment: Tldr - for this price, you cant get better omakase in the city! Staff is super hype!! Profanities!!! Bottomless sake!!!! But...cash only!It was intensely hot when we went for dinner (3 days ago), so we really needed the AC (can you blame us, the humidity was off the charts!!!!), so we went in a few minutes earlier and was welcomed by a darker ambiance of an underground speakeasy with throwback music back to the 90s.One thing you gotta realize at this place, the sake is bottomless, so dont hesitate to down those shots if youre in a party mood. The staff will also encourage you to shout profanities but only at your food, positive comments only.On the food, Ill skip the obvious - the highlights are the appetizers. There are 6 apps and 9 mains, and the apps are what makes this place unique - do you want white rosemary smoke with your salmon, in a martini class? Do you want chefs who cheer you on as you continue to down cups of sake while you chew on spicy toro on toast? How about a Thai curry infused sushi?Thats right, that stuff is unique AF just like the that experience youre supposed to have on that new ride at Universal Studios, but didnt cuz of long sweaty lines. Therefore, I also suggest booking early, like 1 month in advance to lock in your preferred date and time.Portions are not bad but Im fat (they dont call me Phat Mike for nuthin), so I left a bit hungry.Also, its cash only - thats the only downside because I enjoy the feel of cold plastic and metal on my skin.Have a nice f**king dinner. (Thats their tagline, dont ban me Google)

Comment: Fun riff on the omakase experience! Come for a party and a good time with charismatic chefs and lucked out with a live band playing bluesy banjo music and ending with EDM. Food presentation is part of the experience complete with smoke bubbles and sparklers for birthdays. Quality is 4* for top notch ingredients but rice was too hard and not well matched. The more traditional pieces fall flat against the intense stimuli of the night and the rushed pace. The real gems are the creative Thai riffs like an amazing curry base with torched white fish and the rosemary smoke garlic crunch salmon. Overall a fun time and recommend for a dinner theater experience.

Comment: This experience is a must for any sushi lover. Its not the typical omakase experience-- its so - much - better! come ready to have a great time, eat great food cooked by the best hype-men chefs who will never let your glass be empty for more than 30 seconds. Each of the 4-5 opener courses are super unique and innovative and then the plate of sushi arrives, each one more mouth watering than the next, and finally the meal ends with the most perfect handroll. Manhattan is cool and stuff, but Jackson Heights is where its at. Get on the 7 train, it wont bite ;) I have to give a special shoutout to the crew who sat us even though I made the reservation for the week after, they couldnt have been nicer about my mistake and accommodated us and made sure we had fun -- especially when my brother was handed the mic for his rendition of i want it that way. Seriously, snag that reservation and pull up a seat at the bar, and let the good times roll.

Comment: If you like near-perfect bites of food, endless sake, and having fun, then go to Sushi On Me. Great spot for small groups and special occasions.I’ve been twice, and the vibe of your fellow diners can definitely influence the experience since you’re all seated together along the bar. The waiters do an awesome job engaging with guests no matter what, but I personally think it’s a better spot for an outgoing, raucous night with friends as opposed to a quiet romantic dinner.

The servers were energetic and entertaining, all while being attentive to our empty glasses and filling them with sake regularly. The food was flavorful and fresh, and from my understanding has a rotating menu. The seats are limited with only 10 customers within a 2 hour period so make sure to make a reservation.

Comment: Where do I begin? Sushi on Me is a One of Kind Omakase experience that will kick your night off on a high note. As I got off the E train from Manhattan, I wasn’t sure if I could find this establishment. It’s definitely hard to find.. and with good reason. The location is so hidden that you’ll mistaken this place for Sushi izakaya. Don’t be fooled and keep looking.. Sushi on Me is located along an underground stairwell and when you enter, you’re transported into a different world outside of Queens. The experience itself is filled with FUN vibes, excellent grade sushi, and bottomless sake! You need to experience this for yourself and be you’re own judge. My mind is blown from this experience.

Comment: We came here for the omakase, which makes a lot of sense because that is what they do. It’s more of a food experience type of place than a typical restaurant with menus that you order from. If that makes sense? If you go you’ll get it 😂. We had a good time and they even stufffed a big sparkler in a hand roll for my birthday. My favorite part of the evening was when the guy serving the sushi explained to the very police looking gentleman to our right that he was ESL. Which was important in explaining that he meant the smoke covering the salmon was hemp smoke not marijuana smoke. (I helped him find the word hemp). Fantastic food!

Comment: This was an amazing experience and felt worth the price (we each paid $116 after tax and tip). Emphasis on “experience,” from the party atmosphere with winkingly crowd-pleasing music, the bottomless sake, the sparklers they added for those with a birthday, and the delightful charisma of the chefs walking us through each step. The experience was friendly — if you want a snooty night out of fancy dining, don’t go here. But if you like fun and can swing the cost, enjoy!

Comment: Fresh, indulgent, and unique food. Those 15 bites were beyond any local sushi or seafood I’ve had around queens, the chefs put in a lot of thought and play into each bite. Add in an attentive and fun team and there was not an empty cup or dull moment during dinner. Can’t wait for round two!!

Comment: The sushi itself was good but not like the best Ive had. The special part of this place was the vibe and the wow unlimited bottomless sake on the house. They make sure your glass is full always and probably trying to get you to be carried out by the end of the meal. The chefs were funny. If you are looking for a traditional formal omakase this is not it. For the price I think this is worth a shot and I guess dont bring your young kids because the nsfw language. I think you can describe this place as a bar that also happens to serve sushi.

Comment: Such a fun and unique omakase experience. I’ve done a few here in New York and this is one to remember. When you get there it looks like you’re being led into a basement, but it opens up to a quaint space that is very inviting. The staff is fun and interactive. It’s kind of like dinner and a show as you watch them do their craft. The mashups of cuisine throughout the courses are unique and delicious, especially the appetizers. If you’re a drinker, the sake flows freely (all you can drink sake is included in the price). And there is live music that sometimes takes requests. It is cash only and that doesn’t include your tip to the musicians or the chefs, but this place is a fun experience, it’s is delicious, and I think it’s definitely worth it!

Comment: An excellent experience! Definitely a departure from the usual more prim and proper omakase. Dont come here if youre expecting the usual. The staff is in your face and its awesome and adds to the experience. The sushi was top notch. The fatty tuna with uni and caviar was spectacular. The smoked sushi was special. Cant go wrong with bottomless sake as well.Go! Especially if you want a boisterous and loud omakase experience that also prioritizes the sushi without also breaking the bank by omakase standards.

Comment: This place has delicious food, excellent service, and great entertainment. When you come, youre coming for the experience. Its a 15 course meal with small sushi serving, love music and entertaining staff that cooks and serves right in front of you.The only thing I would say that the food although delicious is not incredibly filling and there is no desert. Its also $89 a person which is definitely way too much if you were just getting a meal.Overall I would recommend if you can afford it, simply because the staff is so entertaining.

Comment: I would recommend this place. I think the menu design is not really standing out in high-end sushi shops in New York. It really stands out from the rest because of the atmosphere: live jazz, unlimited sake, and entertaining chef.I once ate at a jazz restaurant in westside, the food is a little below average but the price is still more than 50 with no alcohol. Sushi on me has all the good stuff with fresh sushi. It is a deal and is the most affordable omasake in the town.

Comment: Parroting all and saying that we had a fantastic meal here and a wonderful time. Everyone was incredibly friendly and the food was extremely delicious. We were on the second appetizer when we turned to eachother and said it was better than most other omakase we have tried (no shade but facts are facts). Cant wait to return - what a dream.

Comment: Firstly, the all you can drink sake included in the price is no joke. Your glass is never empty for more than 10 seconds refilled by attentive waiters. But the food is unique in that in combines casual flavors of modern Asian food with traditional Japanese omakase and doesnt take itself too seriously. Recommend!

Comment: Its an Omakase, where the chef presents 15 or so different sushi/nagiri pieces, hand crafted meticulously one at a time, and just when you think the first one is best thing you ever had they bring out another one and so on and so forth. A hell of a good time! Just dont (or do) abuse the Unlimted Saki like i did!Also the music is very groovy! And a cozy atmosphere. Like hanging out in your friends basement.Call ahead and make reservations as they only have 15 seats snd they fill up fast!

Comment: 4.5 rounded upIts a good deal for $89 - 3 appetizers, 12 pieces of sushi, unlimited sakeWhy you should go there?VFM is good. Ambiance is unrivaled. Its a speakeasy bar, with good live music, and a party atmosphere. They refill your cup with sake whenever you drink, and everyone is very nice. The appetizers are excellent.Things to improve on:Sushi is ok. You can find better at similar prices. Sake is meh, which is to be expected for unlimited sake.Overall, its a great destination for fun.

Comment: Amazing experience. I liked that they didnt try to act all fancy when it came to the food. Things like joking that the fish is from costco. I would totally still have eaten all their food even if it was from costco. It was a refreshing non elitest way to present and enjoy the food. We were treated with great food and an even greater service.

Comment: Delicious sushi omakase served in a fun yet intimate atmosphere! The staff will make sure you’re both well fed and well sake-ed throughout the hour (unlimited sake is no joke, somehow my glass kept magically refilling itself). Some unique Thai inspired flavours add a different twist, but definitely don’t overwhelm the classic omakase sushi.We’ll be back every time we visit NYC, assuming we can get reservations!

Comment: 13 seat sushi counter (tight fitting) serving Omakase in an underground “speakeasy”. The vibe is fun, with upbeat music and interactive loose chefs. You can tell the staff of 4-5 all get a long and have a great chemistry.There are a series of appetizers, sushi, and two hand rolls. I thoughts all of the fish was of high quality and thoughtfully cut and prepared. I’m addition, for $89 you are treated to unlimited house sake. I believe this is the only alcohol offering. The chefs and host are fun and make sure you are enjoying your night to. This would be a great experience with a group of friends. For the late seating, there is live music.Note: given the 13 seats, reservations are highly recommended. It didn’t appear that walk ins were accepted.

Comment: So fun! Went for a Sunday night dinner at 6:30pm. You chill out for a few mins a table while the chef preps some appetizer dishes then you move to the bar with everyone. The vibe is small, speakeasy with throwback disco hits. The pace of each piece was perfect and the chef kept things entertaining. Your cup will never be empty here. If you’re celebrating someone or something, let them know and you’ll get something special at the end. I’d definitely come back. It only seats 10 so pick a few friends and make a rez.

Comment: Great omakase with a very Thai twist. Chef Palm is great on many levels and the entire dining experience was unique, fun, and delicious(unlimited sake didnt hurt either). Remember to bring cash though, as they dont take any other form of payment. If you cant reach the restaurant to make a reservation, make sure to dm on Instagram, the owner checks it frequently!

Comment: Reall really special place for omakase. Sort if a speakeasy hidden under an unassuming Chinese restaurant, the crew set the bar with their super cool and welcoming vibe. There are no more than 8 seats at the bar and the food that these chefs are serving is just top notch, you would never say that you can get such a high quality experience in the dead middle of Roosevelt avenue! And for the quality of the sushi and the attentive service/interaction the prices are definitely reasonable. I think I found my new Japanese home! Arigato sushi on me!!!

Comment: The very first place I dont want to share with other people but to keep to myself forever!😂 Best jazz going on the whole time and with such a great vibe❤ the omakase size is just perfect for one full bite, very mouthful to enjoy the whole ingredient at once. Ive experienced some places serve off-size omakase that I cannot enjoy the whole as one bite.You are not just paying for the good quality sushi/sashimi but paying for the cultural experience! You will know what I mean once give it a try. Definitely should call or text in advance to book a table or order for pickup, otherwise, will be all sold out so soon!

Comment: Highly recommended!Today is my first try here and they have become one of my favorite non-Mechelin omakase restaurant. Foods are fresh and creative I just cant get enough of the baby squid. What makes me like here the most is the chef they are so passionate and friendly, the dining experience made me feel more like a friend party than just having omakase.

Comment: Sushi On Me is definitely a hidden gem in Jackson Heights and it was one of our best omakase experiences in NYC.Their omakase is 17 courses for $89 but would be adjusted by chef based on the availability of ingredients. The food was amazingly and impressively delicious with lots of surprise. We love how it’s infused with Thai flavors & spice.One of our favorites was the King Salmon with Chili Sauce & Garlic. The presentation was cool in a ball full with liquid nitrogen and the it tasted delicate with freshness.The chef was super friendly and attentive to communicate with us about our preference. I am a foodie with tiny stomach and he customized smaller portion of sushi for me or else I couldn’t finish all the courses.We already recommended our friends to give it a try and it would be an unforgettable meal.
