Sushi Mikasa is a simple but high-end sushi bar. To our locals, Sushi Mikasa is known as one of Brooklyn's best. The simplistic nature of the dining room and decor is done in homage to the hole-in-the-wall sushi restaurants in Japan that are tucked in alleys and in subway stations but serve world-class sushi. Sushi Mikasa has a rotating selection of sushi available depending on what fish Chef Kevin, formerly of Sushi Seki, is able to procure. Unlike other restaurants that blend sushi with other forms of Japanese cuisine, Sushi Mikasa sticks exclusively to sushi, nigiri, and sashimi for its menu. Some additional chef's signatures are the salmon sautéed tomato, kampachi, crunchy eel avocado, yellowtail jalapeño, medium toro, and sea bass skewers.

We went to Koma for the Tuna carving and it was a great experience. Delicious and fresh fish and really cool seeing the carving. We were worried that we had a table outside but it’s a completely enclosed space with heaters, so we were really comfortable sat outside in the middle of November!

This is my 5th visit to Neta Shari, that says it all. For a top rate omakase experience, this is a real bargain. I've had omakases at twice the price that are not nearly as good or enjoyable. You'll be introduced to species of fish that are not available at other restaurants, prepared innovatively and delicious.
