Great experience here! I originally thought this spot was a conveyor belt sushi where the plates go around and you grab it as it comes but it’s more so where you order it and it comes directly to you via the conveyor belt. It was a really fun experience and the sushi was great. The food came out really quickly. They also had a cute little robot bringing your drinks around. Highly recommend their nigiris (the salmon mayo was the best!!). Staff were super nice and attentive as well. For the weekends, it’s $50pp for ayce. Definitely a fun spot to try out! - Wisely Chang

Kaiten Zushi Nomad | AYCE Conveyor Belt Sushi, Japanese Restaurant in NYC Introduce

In a city that loves to innovate, Kaiten Zushi Nomad brings a truly unique and engaging dining experience to the heart of New York. Known as a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, this spot takes a traditional Japanese concept and gives it a modern, high-tech twist. Located in the vibrant NoMad neighborhood, Kaiten Zushi is more than just a place to grab a quick bite; it's an interactive and fun culinary journey. Whether you're a sushi aficionado or new to the experience, the combination of delicious food and a futuristic delivery system makes this a standout destination for locals and tourists alike.

The atmosphere at Kaiten Zushi is a blend of casual, cozy, and trendy. The main feature is, of course, the conveyor belt that snakes through the restaurant, but here, it’s used in an innovative way. Instead of grabbing pre-made plates as they pass by, you order your desired items on a tablet at your table, and the sushi is prepared fresh and sent directly to you on the belt. This ensures that every piece of sushi you receive is made to order, guaranteeing peak freshness and quality. This dining style makes Kaiten Zushi a great choice for a solo meal, a casual lunch with colleagues, or a fun dinner outing with friends and family.

Accessibility is a key part of the restaurant's appeal. It is easily reachable by multiple subway lines and bus routes, and for those who choose to drive, both free and paid street parking options are available in the surrounding area, though, as any New Yorker knows, finding a spot can be a challenge.
