The Scene – The toast of many a guidebook, this Soho spot finds its unassuming storefront thronged with tourists and patient locals every evening. Inside, it's decorated fairly traditionally in bare pine, with hand-drawn signs advertising specials du jour. A good deal of the restaurant's enduring popularity is due to the casual, friendly service and mood. – – The Food – The restaurant subscribes to the "big fish" doctrine of outsized, crowd-wowing hunks of sashimi. At restaurants serving poor fish, this trend is very tedious indeed; but here, fortunately, everything is…

The BEST sashimi I have EVER had!

by get_the_honey_junior at Citysearch

This was BY FAR...THE BEST sashimi that I have EVER eaten. For appetizers, my wife and I ordered the baked Sea Bass with a fresh tomato and red chili pepper sauce. (UNREAL!!!) We each ordered the Sashimi Deluxe platter. The pieces of fish were HUGE which usually occurs when quality is replaced by quantity. Nothing could be further from the truth at Tomoe. This sashimi was so jaw droppingly tender and fresh...that it could be described as something of a religious experience!!! This was definitely one of the top 10 food experiences I have EVER had.

Don't let the lines deter you....It is DEFINITELY well worth the wait!

  • Pros: Fresh, large and oh so tender pieces of fish
  • Cons: No reservations... long lines out the door.

Best Sushi!

by epicurian0003 at Citysearch

There's a reason why there is ALWAYS a line outside this place, sushi is always fresh and tasty! I usually get there early so the wait is not so long. I've never had a problem with service but again, I time my visits so it's right before the dinner rush.

  • Pros: It can be pricey
  • Cons: There is usually a line outside
