“ The main waitress was very kind and made some good food recommendations, alongside providing great overall service. The food was very good, and introduced me and my family to new and interesting variations compared to what we where you used too. This is a great comfy restaurant for a good meal. ”

“ Excellent atmosphere and good food. Friendly staff. ”

“ Ordered takeout and food came promptly. Chicken & Steak Hibachi was fresh and tender. Fair pricing ”

“ Great sushi! Just ordered takeout via Grubhub. Sanitary and safe contactless pickup method. Order made earlier than expected which was great for us. Sushi tasted fresh and was everything we were craving. Will visit again when quarantine is over ”

“ TOMO – A Refreshing Return to Fine Dining in NYC Thing have changed here over the years and what an improvement. TOMO has evolved, improved, and is absolutely worth a revisit. In a time when many restaurants are cutting portions, raising prices, and compromising quality, TOMO defies the odds, maintaining its integrity in sourcing, portions, and pricing. It’s clear that their vendor relationships and smart business practices are giving them an edge in an increasingly unstable market. What Makes TOMO Stand Out? • Fresh, Never Frozen Ingredients – Every bite reflects a commitment to premium seafood selection. • Immaculate Cleanliness – From spotless tables to polished surfaces, the attention to hygiene and atmosphere is evident. • Proper Tableware – No disposable wooden chopsticks here—a small but meaningful touch that reflects their commitment to the dining experience. • Balanced, Intentional Dishes – Flavors and textures are designed to enhance, not overpower, ensuring that every element shines. My Dining Highlights: • Kani Salad – Unlike many places that drown it in sauce, TOMO keeps it clean and simple, letting the seafood shine. • King Crab Pizza – An unexpectedly brilliant dish topped with a semi-sweet, tangy raisin that perfectly complements the crab. • Volcano Salad – A dish that lets you appreciate every ingredient without one overpowering the other. • Sashimi & Sushi – Generous portions, perfectly seasoned rice, and fish so fresh it felt like it was caught today. The most refreshing aspect? TOMO hasn’t shrunk its portions or inflated prices like so many others have. They respect the diner, their ingredients, and the experience they provide. A Few Areas for Improvement: • Music Selection & Atmosphere: The restaurant’s identity would benefit from a carefully curated soundtrack rather than a shuffled mix of house and classical music. • Service Precision: Attentive service is a highlight here, but small refinements—like ensuring used napkins and forks are replaced immediately—would elevate the experience further. • Sake Preparation: When served warm, sake should be gently heated rather than boiled. Maintaining temperature control and proper vessel heating could perfect this offering. That being said, these are minor details that do not overshadow the incredible quality of food and service TOMO delivers. This is a restaurant that respects its diners, their time, and their expectations—something rare in today’s dining landscape. A truly worthwhile dining experience that I highly recommend. TOMO is an example of what restaurants should be—consistent, honest, and dedicated to quality ”
