Sushi Blossoms sits on 8th Avenue in Chelsea, serving an Edomae-style omakase with modern touches. The head chef, who began his apprenticeship at a sushi restaurant in 2009, builds each night's menu around seasonal availability rather than a fixed list, and pieces are prepared just before they reach the counter.
Fish arrives directly from Japan, including from Hokkaido and Kagoshima, with shipments coming in multiple times a week. The room is set up around a counter so diners can watch each course being handcrafted and talk with the chef as the meal moves along.
The restaurant sits in the top price tier for New York City omakase, and reservations run through Resy. Walk-ins are accepted when space allows, but booking ahead is the more reliable route given the counter format.
Hours vary slightly by day: Monday through Thursday service runs from 5:00 to 10:00 pm, Friday from 5:45 to 10:15 pm, and Saturday from 5:30 to 10:00 pm. The restaurant is closed Sundays. Sushi Blossoms is located at 334 8th Ave, with phone contact available for questions not covered by the online booking system.
