Sushi Skooba 8.3
Upper West Side (Central)
Sushi Skooba is a kosher sushi counter sharing space with New Amsterdam Burger, built around high-grade fish and a concise menu of rolls and bowls. The focus is on clean flavors, premium ingredients, and composed rolls rather than an endless list of options.
