| | | | | | 15 East is one of my favorite Sushi restaurants in NY. There are only about 9 seats at sushi counter, so you must make reservation in advance. Interior is very simple yet modern. I always order "omakase" which is chef tasting menu. Sushi chef is Makoto Shimizu from Japan. He used to w...

The owners of Tocqueville, Jo-Ann Makovitzky and Marco A. Moreira (also the Executive Chef), moved that restaurant down the street and are now using the 15 East ...

When you’re sitting in front of him, he literally makes the sushi and hands it to you—in my mind, that’s the way to eat sushi. ...
