One of the best omakase for under $100! Ambiance was
One of the best omakase for under $100! Ambiance was intimate and casual, in a 6 seater cozy space. 11 premium pieces (including my favorites sweet shrimp and uni) plus a handroll and dessert. You have an option to add more pieces. Dessert was served in a secret speakeasy where you can enjoy beverages and cocktails after.

Everything is so fresh!!! I loved everything they offered. The restaurant is so trendy and the staff is so nice and professional. I had the 16 courses Omakase. Definitely eat here!
Be the first to ReplyThis is for the pop-up Taikun at the Ritz in Dana Point.
The 8 seat counter brought us close to the chef and the whole experience was made to be engaging. Need not to say that everything offered to us was fresh, but the way they were prepared and presented could only be described one of a kind. The use of salt, pepper, salmon roe, truffle, caviar, and other ingredients complimented the key pieces on top of the rice. From wagyu to otoro, best of the land and best of the sea. Plump oyster, sweet clean scallop, popping ikura, all came together to make this feast complete. Thank you Chef Ben! For making our anniversary dinner so memorable and tasty! The technique and finesse of sushi making was remarkable to watch. Thank you, Adrian for the hospitality and heart warming service you brought to us. Photos to speak for the good food.
Be the first to ReplyMake sure you do the 13-course so you can sit at the chef's
Make sure you do the 13-course so you can sit at the chef's counter. Chef is the best! He does everything in front of you and explains all the courses himself. I've been here so many times and always had a great experience. The yuzu pieces are my favorite but everything is flavored well and delicious. Sake pairings are also very good and many are imported from Japan. I'm here any time there's an open seat.
Be the first to ReplyWow! This place is impressive!!! Its not worth it if you
Wow! This place is impressive!!! Its not worth it if you don't get the biggest option for sure.The chefs preparation is mesmarizing, every bite is a 10/10+ the flavors are phenomenal because of how fresh all the ingredients are, and nothing overpowers the fish. You're not uncomfortably full at the end too with the amount we ate. I am so pleased I've gotten to experience this thank you much!
Be the first to ReplyI really enjoyed my meal at Taikun.
The sushi was all super fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The pieces all were either satisfying or extremely satisfying in terms of flavor and texture.The chef and server provided exceptionally friendly service and were so nice to accommodate me as a single diner. This was a great meal and the price is quite fair for what you get. I would love to come back with some friends!

After hearing so much about this Omakase spot, we decided to check it out. You definitely need to make a reservation for this place in advance as, this place only seats about 6-8 people at a time and, it's quite a tiny space and intimate dining experience. I should also note that it took us a while to find the place as, on google maps the address comes up differently from where it is actually located. Upon arriving we were told to wait at their bar area in the back while the chef and his su-chef prepared the counter for the omakase experience. The omakase experience costs around $100 per person with tax and tip and, includes 11 nigiri pieces, a hand roll, and and dessert. Our omakase chef was really friendly and we enjoyed each and every nigiri and the hand roll. The dessert however was disappointing. It was this frozen green tea mochi icecream that you seemed like it was bought from Trader Joe's! But disappointing when you're spending so much money on the experience. Overall, was a nice experience but, in my opinion there are way better omakase places in the city where you get more for your buck!
Be the first to ReplyThe chef and server were nice and attentive.
The chef noticed how I kept turning the pieces around for pictures and he changed the next pieces positions so the pieces are facing me instead of him after.The food was what made the 3 stars for me. The first few pieces were great, fresh and delicious. Then I was hit with 2-3 with a strong fishy smell (I had to secretly spit out 2 into the napkin). The toro hand roll was the same, I gave it to my husband after the first bite. The ikura (roe) was way too salty.....We did enjoy the ebi (sweet shrimp) and the yuzu piece that we ordered extra!My husband was ok with the food since he doesn't mind the fishy smell as much but overall, I would not return to not enjoy 1/3 of the meal.

Went here with some coworkers, and it was such an intimate and fun dining experience. With just a small counter for people to sit at (fits 6? or 8?) for omakase, you get to chat back and forth with the chef and watch as each piece as made. Quality and service were amazing and each flavor was so different from one piece to the next, yet all were minimalistic in the best way, with barely any seasoning or sauces. Afterwards, we headed to the speakeasy in the back, which was empty when we went, but also cool to experience.
Be the first to Replydecent sized portions and very intimate setting.
I think it only holds up to 6 guests so it's a very private experience. the chef was super welcoming and we had a great conversation. the back has a huge speakeasy and very intimate as well. we got the chef a bottle of sake and he let us have the opportunity to share some with him. the pieces are decently sized and we left feeling super full we couldn't add on any extra pieces. they did have a good selection of alcohol and offered drinks pairing. additionally for the price, service and fish quality- I highly recommend here

You might miss this while walking on Delancey because of the covert exterior, but you absolutely need to make a reservation here! 90 min omakase in a very intimate setting, about 6 seats I believe. The service was impeccable and the quality of the fish was top notch. They served some interesting pieces that I've not seen often like a tiger shrimp. Scallop was amazing and just melted upon touch. There's a "speakeasy" type situation in the back as well if you want to drink and chill before or after the omakase. Staff was so kind!
Be the first to ReplyA classic, no-frills omakase spot under $100.
I love this place so much, I'm torn between gatekeeping and telling everyone I know about it. Because Taikun is lesser-known, you can easily get the 8 seater to yourself/your group with a weekday reservation. The place is a bit difficult to find, it's a dark and intimate restaurant nestled on a block on Delancey St. The host and chef are super friendly and can recognize you by the second or third visit. It's a 10 piece omakase for $85 and it's so worth it. The fish is fresh and they doesn't try to dress it with any overwhelming toppings or sauces. There's also a backroom speakeasy you and your group can move to if you want to continue hanging out after the meal. I have to come back here every time I'm in NYC.

Ate a whole lake's worth of sushi before this, but never have I ever ate sushi like this before. I've spent $800 plus on wagyu before... This was better.
Be the first to ReplyClassic omakase.
Chef lets the quality of his ingredients shine by keeping the dressing/seasoning/sauce minimal. Many just a touch of sake, lemon, wasabi. The scallop and shrimp are some of the best I've had in nyc - sweet / texture not too slimy on the shrimp which generally I'm sensitive to. No frills, quick 1.5 hour meal with good service. Small intimate setting just 6 seats at sushi bar. You get escorted to the back for dessert - which was the only part of the meal I didn't care for (mochi ice cream, of which I've had much better). For $85 though, solid sushi experience and well worth a visit.

3.7 probably. Okay overall but not wow-ed.Very friendly chef and somm !Best pieces : O-toro from the standard menu and Abalone & Sardine for the added pieces.I have to be honest I enjoyed the 5 additional pieces much more than the default menu. I'd wish if I can just ordering several added pieces and that's for my meal.Mostly sorta "cured" in flavor.
Be the first to ReplyI've tried most of the "Best Under $100 Omakase in NYC"
I've tried most of the "Best Under $100 Omakase in NYC" places and this is the absolute best. Every piece of fish was fresh and delicious (they brought each piece individually vs. some places which give you a platter), I didn't feel rushed at all (so rare!) and the service couldn't have been better. The sushi chef took such care in everything and was very kind. I recommend doing the beverage pairing for an additional $55. I will be going to this place regularly. Don't hesitate - at $85, this is the absolute best sushi deal in NYC.
Be the first to ReplyGreat oamkase with wonderful ambience.
Can't find this kind of value in ny. Definitely will come back.
Be the first to ReplyTaikun has become my number one under $100 omakase spot.
The ambience, the food, the service collectively makes for a solid value. It's a super cute and intimate spot, serving only 6 people at the counter at a time. This is a huge plus, as the chef is never overwhelmed and brings out the sushi in a timely fashion. I think I'm going to become a regular here, and I've already made two visits back to back. For my first visit, my omakase included -1 sea bream2 hokkaido sea scallop3 sweet shrimp4 king salmon cured in sake and soy sauce5 torched blackthroat sea perch nodaguru6 amber jack w yuzu 7 smoked spanish mackerel8 blue fin tuna9 torched fatty tuna toro10 ikura11 hokkaido uni12 otoro w pickled radish handrollExtra pieces ordered - eel and scallopAll pieces are so so good, but the scallop is the standout for me. It might be the best scallop I've had from an omakase. For $85, this omakase is well worth a visit. Their two servers, the chef and the drinks server, are also both super friendly and hospitable. I'll be sure to be back at Taikun a third, fourth, tenth time, and more.
Be the first to ReplyThis is an AWESOME omakase experience! As soon as I saw
This is an AWESOME omakase experience! As soon as I saw my Yelp buddy, Sara L. post her photos 3 weeks ago, I jumped on Resy and made reservations for my wife's birthday. The entrance is through a dark curtained door and was locked when we got there. Ignore all the people seated on the sidewalk for the oyster bar next door. There is only seating for 6 people, so we arrived early and snagged the 2 center seats, right in front of the action. Chef Feri knows his business and masterfully wielded his sushi knife with deft slices. When speaking with him, he mentioned that he doesn't like sushi that is tough to eat like clam, octopus or squid and tends toward softer, smoother types, which is reflected in his omakase service. Be ready to have everything melt in your mouth!Every piece of nigiri sushi is precisely crafted by Chef Feri in smooth, practiced, precise movements. Whether it's a sprinkle of sea salt, a spritz of lemon, a touch of wasabi, a brush of shoyu, a marinade of sake or a blast of flame, each piece is uniquely crafted to entice your senses of sight, smell and taste. From the smokiness of the King Salmon and char of the O-Toro to the sweetness of the Hotate and Ebi, every taste was an original. The Hokkaido Uni tasted like buttery air, because as soon as it lands on your tongue, it seems to evaporate, leaving you with an amazing sensation. The Ikura was amazing as well, being marinated in sake and shoyu.One of the other diners said she just wanted another 30 pieces of the O-Toro and I would have joined her because it was the smoothest tasting of all the different fishes. On our other side was a couple that seem to be regulars at Taikun and has ordered additional pieces of Perch and Anago, which I looked at longingly. Finally, the green tea mochi for dessert was kind of anti-climactic, though it was delicate in flavor as well. I cannot wait to go back and enjoy the experience again, but definitely will add a few special items on the menu!

I will preface this review by stating that I am not a professional food critic. That said, I am just about as passionate (and picky!) about food, which I hope lends credibility to the review that follows.In short, Taikun's omakase is culinary perfection, checking off all the boxes from freshness to thoughtful service to flavor balance to overall experience. We indulged in two consecutive nights here and were pleased with the consistency in quality and attention to detail.The sushi chef is a perfectionist when it comes to selecting, preparing, and serving his fish. He patiently talked us through each piece of sushi and its perfectly balanced flavors. Thanks to his special glazes and preparations, flavor profiles were delicate yet flavorful, with the occasional buttery, smoky, or slightly spicy surprise. As an added bonus, the downtempo lounge music contributes to the intimate, elegant vibe. This is a great spot to catch up with a loved one, impress a date, or even make a new friend seated nearby.I am a proud DC resident but will readily admit that Taikun effortlessly surpasses our best Japanese restaurant, which happens to hold a Michelin star. At the risk of ruining one of NYC's best kept secrets, I urge readers to grab one of the six seats and buckle up for what might very well be among your best meals yet.
Be the first to Reply13 course omakase for $85 was pretty standard.
Good, not great, solid value for under $100 tier. Good for 1st/2nd date. Very small 6 person sushi counter so very intimate. Chef/staff were excellent. Comparables: Shinn East, Korami, Sushi Blossoms.Food: 7/10Value: 8/10Service: 9/10Atmosphere: 8/10
Be the first to ReplyWhen you first walk in, the ambience, candles, and music
When you first walk in, the ambience, candles, and music certainly sets the mood. I thought I would be leaving hungry but this omakse restaurant has 13 courses with a secret menu which filled me up. I enjoyed every single dish. Honestly, this raises the standard I have for sushi now because the freshness, preparation and skill chef Feri took to make our food was on an entirely different level. Our host was amazing as well. I came here to celebrate my friend's birthday and we left more than satisfied. They have different types of alcohol as well. I will definitely be back, and I will bring more friends if I can make a reservation. Don't cancel your reservation because this omakase restaurant will blow your mind.

Oh, this is one of those places that I don't want to write reviews since it's too good to be true that it still exists. How do you afford serving such high quality sushi when the price tag is so reasonable??? LOVE IT
Be the first to ReplyThe best Omakase experience I have ever had.
I went with my husband for an early dinner; it was so intimate, there were 6 chairs total and we were the only people to have made reservations that night, it was us two and the extremely talented and personable Sushi Chef. The service was very kind and attentive as well. The food was off the charts! This place will always hold a special place in my heart.
