I eat sushi all the time and can say that this place is the best in the neighborhood, in terms of quality and value. I usually get the sushi/sashimi combo, and the cuts are a good size, and of high quality and freshness. The lunch specials in particular are great. The takeout is nicely packed and presented. Highly recommended.
Always fresh, quick, easy, cheap, and delicious! Highly recommend the bento box for lunch ?
Wow. Fresh. This place looks regular but the food is high quality. The chef def put a lot of thought and heart into making it. Try the triple X row
Mido is currently offering all day 1/2 price beer and wine on weekdays. The wine pours are very generous! But what’s really important is the quality and care in preparation and serving of this small Japanese restaurant treasure’s food, wine, beer and sake offerings. I ordered the traditional Japanese salad with Carrot Ginger dressing (huge and perfect!) and the ‘no rice’ Triple X specialty roll. Oh my. They use FRESH wasabi. And this roll is all fish and avocado Nirvana (salmon and yellowtail) with the perfect blend of spices and sauce. Stay home please. Keep those tables ‘available’.
Man, where to begin? I think this is one of my favorite restaurants of all time. It’s equal parts neighborhood mainstay and bespoke omokase experience rolled into one (pardon the pun).
I think the sushi and sashimi platters are incredibly thoughtful, playful, and delicious. Amazing craft beer and sake list. Tried many different things from the menu and always enjoy them. Staff is world class.
But the highlight is the omokase (chef’s selection) tasting menu. I think it’s one of the greatest meals in NYC and hands down the best value. Chef Saito highlights fish in a glorious and symphonic journey of flavor. Just try it. You’ll be hooked for life.
