I came to this place lured by high Zagats ratings.
First, I had to wait for 2(!!!) hours. I cant think of any food worth this kind of wait and it turned out Oishii is not the one. Place is tiny and if you're lucky enough to get in, the hungry and anxious folks waiting for their turn to get in will be right behind you.
Maybe Im spoiled by NYC sushi, but Oishii definitely did not live to the expectation. The quality of sushi was mediocre, while rice was far worse than in many other places. Id compare it to that of Whole Foods.
Another myth revealed: Blackened Miso Cod. Somebody said it's comparable to Nobu? Not even close! The sauce is too sweet and the cod too fishy.
All that for true Manhatten price!
Overall, the experience was less than favorable and Im not coming back.
Pros: High Ratings
Cons: , Average food, Price
