Soto was visited on Saturday September 11, 2010. Soto entrance way on 6th Avenue is relatively unmarked white door, leading into a white-walled room adorned with the Japanese rising sun motif directly facing the sushi counter. The restaurant only seats about 40 people, since Sotohiro Kosugi (pictured above) from Northern Japan appears to preside over the construction of each piece of sushi with the help of two assistants. We enjoyed the omakase presented in the photo collage above, and found the meal delicious, particularly accompanied by Dassai 50 sake. The downside was the long wait for sushi. Two suggestions to avoid wait time, would be to book after peak dinner rush times (after 9pm), and also order a host of kitchen appetizers. The wait time is long by New York standards, although worth it for the inventive, precise and artistic renderings of Japanese sushi classics.
