About
Sushi Yoshitake NYC marks the first North American outpost of Chef Masahiro Yoshitake's acclaimed Ginza sushiya, which holds three Michelin stars in Tokyo and was the creative force behind three-Michelin-star Sushi Shikon in Hong Kong. The New York location is part of the 550 Madison project — a landmark Philip Johnson-designed tower that also houses Cote 550 and Bar Chimera, all produced by Gracious Hospitality Management. Chef Yoshitake is known for his Edomae technique, seasonal procuring, and a deeply personalized omakase style that begins with precisely sourced appetizers before moving through expertly aged and cured nigiri. Reservations opened via Resy in April 2026.
