Derek T. KuAugust 8, 2017I loved the ambience and attentive service at Omen. We ordered the seasonal tasting menu: the highlights—pickled vegetable in adorable ceramic cups, sashimi, an amazing eggplant dish, and a custardUpvoted Dec 24, 2024- İpek A.February 27, 2015This is a perfect sashimi place with a good staff. Hot sake, salmon and tuna sashimi & tempura are my favorites!
Tricia LeeNovember 2, 2013Great presentation! Sashimi is very fresh and the custard pear compote dessert is excellent - my only gripe is they didn't have real chop sticks given the higher prices.- Nine WestJune 8, 2012#SallySays: My favorite restaurant in NYC is definitely Omen. This place has a country Japanese feel and I always had the best time here. Get the green tea ice cream for dessert, you won't regret it!
Village VoiceJune 3, 2013The udon here is great, but some even better bites (cold burdock root or yuba with crab) can be found in the ever changing, seasonal, multi-course special meal. Expensive, but oh so worth it.
Marizanne VisserApril 9, 2018Best green tea served non stop and I had the tuna tartare which was superb. Friend ordered salmon teriyaki - also delicious.- Savannah PetrickJanuary 12, 2016hot sake & udon perfect for a winter dinner. make a reservation because there's always a crowd. only amex or cash (...)
CREATETHE GROUPNovember 22, 2011For some odd reason you'll see fashion editors, creative directors and downtown artists here which creates an interesting vibe. This place rules just for the food and staff. -Diana
Jeremy GoldsteinJune 16, 2012Best Agedashi and Sashimi I have ever had. Also of note: the Shabu-Shabu and the Omen Udon (served cold).- Alastair TseSeptember 1, 2013Best Udon in New York, very chewy. Just make sure you have either Amex or Cash.
