Amazing food and great service. One of the best spots in NY for a special dinner. Lower level is definitely busier and more energetic. Prices are off the charts, but food is always spot on.

This is my 5th visit to Neta Shari, that says it all. For a top rate omakase experience, this is a real bargain. I've had omakases at twice the price that are not nearly as good or enjoyable. You'll be introduced to species of fish that are not available at other restaurants, prepared innovatively and delicious.
