Whether you’re a seasoned connoisseur seeking the perfect omakase experience or simply craving a reliable neighborhood spot for a California roll after work, Greenwich delivers. From intimate counters where chefs slice fish with ceremonial precision to lively spots where unfiltered sake flows as freely as conversation, here are nine exceptional sushi destinations worth the trip.
Lobster Bin
$$ | (203) 661-6559 | WEBSITE
Many seafood spots have fans ready to champion their lobster rolls against any competitors, but few have enough devotees to ignite a spirited discussion about rolls from the same kitchen. Whether you believe the warm lobster roll loaded with fresh lobster or the classic cold version is superior, you can attempt to persuade your companions at the cozy outdoor tables any afternoon of the week.
Tsuki Sushi
$$ | (203) 340-2588 | WEBSITE
This sushi spot in Greenwich is offering omakase service in its cozy dining room every evening from 5-10pm. But if you’d rather have conch sashimi, delicious eggplant, or fresh dumplings some other time, you can order directly from their website, and feed a family of four for around $40 any day between 12-9pm.

In the event that nobody stands up and yells “kanpai” during your meal as would’ve been the case during a meal inside this Japanese spot, you don’t need to fret. The whole point is to get you excited to enjoy sushi, but considering the range of varieties and serving sizes, along with the very attentive and friendly staff, you should have plenty of encouragement on your own.
Pair it with some very good dishes, like the delightful Salmon bento box or the incredible freshness of the sushi, any evening from 5-10pm. Reservations are encouraged and available through their website.
Bambou Asian Tapas & Bar
$$ | (203) 531-3322 | WEBSITE
Just a short stroll from the heart of Greenwich, this spot offers outdoor seating as well. Unlike the traditional sushi bars in the area, this place specializes in creative Asian tapas, as well as a robust plant-based vegan selection, which is the highlight here.
Kira Sushi
$$ | (203) 422-2990 | WEBSITE
Alongside the pool at Kira Sushi, you can settle into a lounge chair where you can pair a variety of expertly made sushi with some very fresh edamame any day of the week.
Tengda Asian Bistro
$$ | (203) 625-5338 | WEBSITE
A quiet, elegant environment with some of the freshest sushi in Greenwich would be enough to make this one of our favorite Asian fusion spots in the area. When you also consider that they serve divine salmon teriyaki and poke bowls actually worth ordering, you only need to decide whether you’re getting take-out or dining in.
MIKU Sushi Bar and Restaurant
$$$ | (203) 900-7676 | WEBSITE
This sushi bar’s Greenwich location offers a handful of bar seats at the counter from 5-10pm every evening. Along with more than 10 of its signature rolls, they also serve a long list of mostly Japanese-based whiskeys, as well as appetizers like madai asian pear and toro sashimi.
