Sushi Ikumi, Soho
17 people recommendvia r/FoodNYC18 comments cited below
What people say, in short
Sushi Ikumi is repeatedly recommended for omakase in SoHo. One diner describes a relaxed, less embellished style, and another considers a past lunch especially good value. A solo visitor also reports an enjoyable meal. The qualification is personal preference: a diner who otherwise likes Ikumi finds its fish cuts too large, and some recommendations place it above the budget tier.
