Best of Metromix New York 2011Sushi
This city might be rolling in sushi joints, but only a few consistently deliver perfectly fresh, perfectly prepared fish in beautifully designed spaces at palatable prices (we're not looking at you, Masa, at least not now). And to these restaurants serving sushi, as well as sashimi and other types of rolls, we say, "You are our five favorite sushi restaurants in New York—thanks!" And to you we say, please pick your favorite.
And the winner is…
