    If you are debating on where to eat tonight, don’t think twice just book the reservation. My husband and I have been to the top Omakasa restaurants in NYC and this place tops them all. The food is incredible, the atmosphere is calming, and the service is top notch. I swear that you will be talking about your dinner for weeks to come. You won’t regret it.

    We had a wonderful experience at Kizuna. The fish quality was excellent and every piece was delicious. The sushi chef was very friendly and also knowledgeable about all the fish. The pieces and preparation is more natural so you can taste the quality of the fish. They don't use strong sauces and dress up the pieces to hide the taste of the fish. The dinner was absolutely delicious and we will definitely go back. It's BYOB, so bring your sake or beer if you want to have drinks.
