Blue Ribbon Sushi

Blue Ribbon Sushi opened in SoHo in 1995, founded by Le Cordon Bleu-trained brothers Bruce and Eric Bromberg alongside late sushi master Toshi Ueki, earning a landmark two-star New York Times review that helped make quality sushi accessible to a broad audience. The cedar-clad original location at 119 Sullivan Street features fresh fish flown daily from the Sea of Japan, Atlantic, and Pacific, alongside an award-winning sake list and beloved dishes like lobster sashimi and oxtail fried rice.
