Sushi Nakazawa is a high-end Japanese sushi establishment situated on Commerce Street in Manhattan. It has garnered praise for its exceptional quality and meticulous preparation.
Restaurant
Launched in 2013 by Maurizio de Rosa and Alessandro Borgognone, this venue showcases the talents of Daisuke Nakazawa, a protégé of Jiro Ono, whom the founders discovered after watching the documentary Jiro Dreams of Sushi.
The restaurant accommodates ten guests at the sushi bar and provides seating for 25 in the main dining area. In 2016, Sushi Nakazawa broadened its scope by opening an adjacent lounge featuring an à la carte menu to offer a wider variety of dining options.
Expansion
Sushi Nakazawa extended its presence in 2018 by inaugurating a second site within the Old Post Office building on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C..
Reviews and ratings
In December of the year it opened, critic Pete Wells awarded Sushi Nakazawa a flawless four-star rating in the New York Times, making it one of only six restaurants to achieve this honor.
The New York location was honored with a star by the Michelin Guide in 2019, followed by the Washington, D.C. branch receiving its inaugural star in 2020.
