It's more for the ambiance. How about their fish menu?

mostly appetizers

If you do end up in sushi metzuyan. make sure you have a reservation. I showed up at 5 once and it was completely empty. They refused to seat me though. Haven't been back since

I did end up going without a reservation, the place was empty had no problems.

The sushi was as mediocre as everyone made it out to be. The ambiance was nothing to write home about (the fish tank was empty, apparently it had a crack and, according to the waiter, there are no plans to have it fixed) and the service was below average.

I was here a few months ago and the fish tank was empty as well.

Kind of stinks. Was the nicest part about that place.

Argh!! That slipped by me. With all the secular holidays a Jewish one has squeezed its way into the calendar. Thanks! Maybe some other day then :)

Good food?

The food is amazing BUT the lines will be horrendous for this event. He was in Bklyn last week and in general wherever he makes his stops, u feel like ur in a sardine box.
