                                            Tiny restaurant with a big taste. Loved the quirky alts on traditional Japanese dishes as well as the some new takes.

                                            Omakase is good. The place is tight so you are up next to the other people. We had the restaurant week menu and it was pretty good. The only star off is for the dessert. The vegan tiramisu was not great. Continue to experiment though!

                                            Extremely overpriced and not delicious food at all. I’m a big time foodie and love omakase food and experience. Last Saturday was our experimental dinner at Rabbit as they are close to our daughter apartment in NYC. Disappointing and it’s a unique in a certain way that none of the dishes were delicious. Beer was good though, so 2-star for a beer. Need frozen glasses though;)

                                            Nice spot but was disappointed with the food given the price. Service and pacing of the omakase was good but food was rough tbh.

                                            Absolutely not what we expected. Omakase was omakase like which we realized after. Some Portions were large - and too large sometimes - very strange menu. Only piece that was omakase - ish was the foie gras. Would not return for the price or in general. Disappointing. They did try though. Just not for me.

                                            Overpriced given portions and quality of food. Sake pairing was delicious.
