Loved the food, its one of the best sushi places in upper west side, and with reasonable prices. If it's the first time, then you should order the yellowtail sushi, its butteryness it's delicious, it has an umami flavor which doesn't need soy sauce. And its lotus root has the perfect balance between sweet and sour.

Simple and small set up inside, but serving great quality sushi. Each piece had a nice thick slice of fish and good rice to fish ratio. We started with a couple of apps to share, including the karage chicken which came with six big pieces and was piping hot but delicious! We also got a tuna tartare with crunchy seaweed chips. Both were great. I got the deluxe which came with 9 pieces and a roll. My friends got the Miyabi with 6 pieces of sushi, 10 pieces sashimi and a roll. By the end we were all full. They offer dessert- ice cream, mochi, and a chocolate pudding but were out of some when we were there. Service was attentive but they forgot to refill our water after our meal arrived. Overall, great option when you want sushi in the upper west!

We visited for dinner a few nights ago and made reservations about 24 hours in advance for our group of three. We arrived 15 minutes early and were seated right away, which was a nice surprise. The staff were attentive throughout the evening, frequently checking on drinks and orders without being overbearing. We started with a few appetizers to share. Portions were on the smaller side given the price, but each dish was flavorful and beautifully prepared. For my entrée, I ordered the chirashi (though listed under a different name on the menu). The fish was incredibly fresh, with a generous variety that made the dish both satisfying and memorable. The only downside was the noise level. At first, we were seated next to a family with young children who were lively but left quickly. However, the group that came in after them was very loud, which made conversation difficult. While the food and service were excellent, the ambience may not be ideal if you’re looking for a quiet, relaxed dining experience. Overall, this restaurant shines in terms of flavor and customer service—worth a visit if food is your priority.

Yasaka is my favorite sushi restaurant, when my friend took me to Yasaka many years ago I was so impressed about quality of fish. Still today they have not changed. I love to come here after I tried so many new sushi restaurant and I often disappointed with their quality of fish but not Yasaka!
