Overall everything was excellent. Presentation was great. Food was great with sake & beer pairing.
Only problem: Table of 4 when on a date feels like you're obliged to sit with strangers. Then sharing out of same sake sake bottle just feels awkward. |

I purchased this activity for my boyfriend's birthday--we are both big sushi fans--and we were both very impressed. Our host Raheem was very friendly and knowledgeable, and the restaurant served some killer sushi. The icing on the cake was the sake. I'm not a huge fan of sake and thus was not too excited about the prospect of drinking it with my meal, but the two sakes served were delicious. I have told other friends about this activity and will most likely go again with some of them. The only downside is the 5:00pm start time--difficult to get there right after work--but I do understand that they have to do it during off-hours. All in all, a very pleasant experience. |

My friend and I really enjoyed this event. We learned a lot about sushi and Japanese tapas. The food was amazing and very different. The only thing that I would suggest is making the event later. To get there at 5pm on a weekday was very difficult. |

Great Food, Great Drinks and Educational Too |

This event was awesome. The food was great and we had plenty of it.
The host was very knowledgeable about the food and the tradition behind the food.
The drinks were great. We had a blast. We will do this tour again and also other tours by this provider. It was well worth the money |

As a teacher, I loved all of the info I learned about both Japanese food, as well as the culture and traditional behind it. As for the food itself, it included more traditional items that I had had before as well as lots of new foods as well. A wonderful experience, I would definitely recommend this to others! And the sake was phenomenal too :) |

The young man leading us was very knowlegeable about Japanese food and customs. The food was delicious and so was the saki!
I would visit this particular restaurant again and possibly participant in another event in the future!
Thank you for a great night. |

The entire experience was terrific! Well organised, conducted with enthusiasm and filled with informative narrative. The tasting portions are large and quite delectable. I left with an appreciation and insight into Japanese culinary traditions, and increased confidence when next ordering Japanese food. No mean feat for an evening's session. I would suggest this tour for anyone who is curious about Japanese food. It is an excellent introduction. Also, it demystifiesJapanese cuisine and makes for an evening of fun, food and great sake/beer! I have every intention of attending this again on my next visit to New York.
Our culinary guide was wonderful! Fun and open to questions. He added so much to the experience with his humour, knowledge and passion for japanese cuisine! |
