Sushi Lab

Sushi lab has been on my list of rooftop places to visit for a while. The views weren't what I was expecting. You do get a nice view of the office building across the street, but don't expect sweeping views of NYC's skyline. Nevertheless, the ambiance was super cute and I loved the fact that I went before sunset, so the natural lighting was perfect. I got the tuna flight, the avocado fries, washugyu beef specialty roll, and the strawberry geisha cocktail. Tuna was extremely decadent, the server walked us through the different types of tuna that was being served, from lean to most fatty. The avocado fries were interesting, instead of using regular breaded batter these were fried using tempura batter which gives it a more smooth crunchy finish. The washugyu beef specialty roll was filling. I'd have to say that the yakiniko miso glaze that was used was sweeter and dominated the dish than what I had expected. Definitely not the typical specialty roll so it could be a hit or miss depending on what you're expecting. Overall, I had a pleasant experience. Staff was super friendly and the whole rooftop was just great for taking the cutest photos. It wasn't too noisy so it was great to catch up with your party. From an accessibility perspective, while you take the elevator up, you still need to be able to take a flight of stairs up to the rooftop. Something to keep in mind.

Food was decent and the rooftop was pretty but terrible service. We were there during a Friday lunch and waited an hour to get our food. Had to follow up multiple times to even get our first roll. Would not come back
