Sushi has become one of the most popular meal choices. In Manhattan you can find Sushi restaurants in every neighborhood. One thing about Sushi restaurants. They have vegetarian choices for those who are not Sushi lovers. The restaurants here each have something special to offer – special prices, outdoor dining, all you can eat specials, even a Sushi brunch etc. Some are great for family dining, some for that special date. The restaurants in the business areas- midtown and downtown in the financial district, are jammed at lunch, so try to go either early or late, after 1PM. Reservations are suggested at most of them. In Manhattan, it is always wise to call for reservations. It is not fun to find out after you get there that they do not have a table. The prices are from the dinner menu. Lunch is usually a bit on the cheaper side.
