Sushi in NYC

Can anyone suggest a great sushi restaurant in NYC? Yeah, I know there are a lot but reviews seem to be all over the board, unless you go to Masa and spend $400/person, which I won't do. Staying in Midtown on the east side, but anywhere in the area is fine. Thanks.

    Sushi Yasuda! I was in NY last week and went to Sushi Yasuda, in the top 3 sushi sushi places I've been to anywhere. It is not THAT expensive - I believe we paid about $150 including various drinks etc. and it was terrific. Reserve and sit at the sushi bar as Chef Yasuda is very interactive and will teach you a ton you didn't know about the food. Located at 204 East 43rd Street New York City 10017 tel 212.972.1001

      there are plenty of sushi in NYC threads. midtown east? Sushi Yasuda and Kuruma Zushi are absolutely tops - in the city (and although not cheap, nowhere near Masa prices). if you are in Union Sq area, 15 East - it's new and former Jewel Bako sushi chef is there now

        Oh bother. This was my first post and I realized that I posted in the wrong spot. I actually saw a comment about sushi place in Manhattan. Sorry folks. But, does anyone else have a suggestion? Thanks.

          I like Jewel Bako. It isn't too pricey (although definitely not cheap sushi) I forget how much we ended up paying when we went but I loved it and we are going again tonight. Very good quality.

          My friend also recommended sushi seki - never been here yet.
