UPPER WEST SIDE, NY — A new omakase spot has signed on the dotted line for a West 71st Street location, according to reports.
The restaurant, known only as Omakase Resturant, will rent a 1,500-square-foot spot at 163 West 71st St. for $15,000 per month, according to TradedNY and I Love The Upper West Side.
The unnamed restaurant joins a litany of omakase spots on the West Side. Just a block closer to the park on Columbus Avenue sits Omakase Shihou.
