Tempura Matsui New York Reviews from The Last Year
When my boyfriend told me we were going to eat here, I was
When my boyfriend told me we were going to eat here, I was a bit skeptical. I felt like for that price maybe we should just have went to eat at an omakase place instead of one where everything was fried, but boy was I wrong. We were seated immediately upon entry. I wish I wasn't currently on crutches as I would've loved to sit at the bar and watch the chefs make the oh so delicate tempura. There were five or six courses, but each course felt like there was 500 things in there, so here are my favorite food parts of the meal. - Tempura favorites: - Shokuji Tencha - When they gave all the options for what to eat the last rice dish with, I was a bit worried of ordering the tencha as I thought it might dilute all the flavors and make it very watery. I was completely wrong and it was unequivocally the best option there. The tea itself, although very light, when paired with the green tea salt and the flavorful tempura completely elevated the dish as it became almost like a broth. It was a perfect ending to the meal as it showed the skills of the tempura master as well as the beautiful flavors of the green tea. - Melon - When they brought out the melon at the end, my boyfriend and I both looked at each other like uhh... this is our dessert? We were so wrong to estimate the melon. If they brought out ice cream or some cake, I think we would've been too full to eat it, but melon? It was the most perfect dessert item as the melon was incredibly succulent, it literally melts in your mouth. On first bite, all the juices flow out of the melon and it feels like you're drinking the most fresh melon juice of your life. I'm still dreaming about this one. But what is a Michelin-starred restaurant without all the ambiance surrounding the food? Here are my favorite parts of the experience other than the food: - The toilet seats were warm! I know this is so weird, but I loved the toilets as they felt so clean, neat, and fancy. - Our server was incredibly knowledgeable of everything on the menu and I absolutely loved that he taught us how to best eat each of the tempura pieces as I really think his pairing and knowledge elevated each piece. Also, he was extremely attentive. The minute we finished our tempura piece, he would arrive with another one. It was a never-ending tempura journey, and I was here for it. - Okay this is kind of cheating, but I absolutely love all the dipping sauce options. I loved that there were 2 kinds of salt and you can really tell the difference between them. - I loved the lemon juicer haha. I thought it was such a fancy way not to get your fingers dirty but still maximize all the juices in the lemon. Also, it was such a satisfying thing to squeeze it all out. If I come back next time, I will just come for lunch as it is $100 cheaper and the food seems to be roughly the same minus the Chawanmushi which is not that big of a deal.
10/10 experience! We booked it for a dinner and got seating
10/10 experience! We booked it for a dinner and got seating at the bar where the frying station is, they also have booth seating but I def preferred the bar seating. They go over which salts is best accompanied with which piece and all the pieces came out at a good pace. The service is amazing here and they are very attentive! The chefs were nice and I had so many favorite pieces! The tempura omakase was such a unique experience! I was stuffed at the end of the meal and the frying doesn't feel greasy at all! It is pricy but it's a good celebratory meal!
A high end Japanese tempura experience without having to fly to Japan.
After a welcoming entrance, the ambiance is old school traditional Japanese restaurant of yore, not fancy. The $280 price made me skeptical, but the very refined tempura and accompanying courses left us very satisfied and already thinking about who to invite next time to share the experience. Nowadays it seems everything is overpriced, but here at least we were not disappointed. As good as top tempura in Tokyo. Feeling slightly overstuffed from the abundance of courses. My favorites - the foie gras chawanmushi (silky egg custard with foie gras flavor but no actual piece of foie gras which I enjoyed more, topped with snow crab) , the matsutake mushroom tempura, the triple caramelized sweet potato that took sweet potato tempura to the next level almost melting and the tencha. I’m a fan of tea over rice. This one topped with tempura and green tea salt. The chef seemed very pleasant which is always a plus.
Splurge on the most refined tempura with quality
Splurge on the most refined tempura with quality ingredients in a light airy batter and accompanying dishes of varying textures and flavors that balance out the meal. It's a good thing when the only complaint is possibly overeating. The decor is traditional and not fancy or stuffy at this intimate establishment. The service is thoughtful if not entirely seamless. Overall a welcoming relaxed and delicious experience.
I used to be THE best tenpura in town also probably in the
I used to be THE best tenpura in town also probably in the states like high quality tenpura restaurants in Japan. But I was very disappointed this time and wouldn't go back again. Unlike when Mr. Matsui had been in charge, the overall quality of ingredients and the skill of the chef were second rates at best. The tare on the tendon didn't have any umami. It was just like sugared water. Maybe it was! The bottom like is the price has gone up but the quality has gone way down. I would suggest to eat cheaply 10 times at Ootoya (30 times in Japan!) instead with the same amount of money you must pay just for a meal there.
The only Michelin star omakase tempura!! It's not cheap at
The only Michelin star omakase tempura!! It's not cheap at $250 a person before tax and tip but each piece is fried to perfection. It comes at a good pace and its unique setting for omakase. Felt a little hefty after though with all the oil but def worth checking out at least once.
Incredible.
I had high expectations because it's a Michelin reviewed restaurant, but not so much since I don't have tempura that often. What a beautiful dining experience - from the presentation of the most gorgeous sake sakazuki glass I have ever seen, the service of having every dish explained, and the the delicateness of the thin layers of tempura that make me question every other piece of tempura I've had prior.
To get straight to the point, Tempura Matsui serves a $300
To get straight to the point, Tempura Matsui serves a $300 tempura dinner, omakase style. The price is steep, but the incredible tempura and the personalized service is well worth the price of admission. Each course is a delightful play on traditional tempura, with no parts of the seafood off limits. Seating is extremely limited so reserve in advance, and definitely call ahead to reserve the lobster supplement to the prix fixe or you'll regret it.
Came here for dinner omakase with my wife.
Easily the best tempura we've ever had. The service and ambiance were worthy of a Michelin Star. But be warned, you will be very full by the end of the meal. Do not add the lobster to your meal, UNLESS you have a massive appetite. My wife and I struggled once the last quarter of the meal arrived, but I somehow caught a second wind with the final 2 courses because the food was so delicious. If we skipped the lobster, I think we would've been fine.
TLDR: Bottom-line, it is so much more than a tasting of
TLDR: Bottom-line, it is so much more than a tasting of fried tempura. If you've never had proper tempura before, you are missing out. You may find this to be equally as enjoyable as a true omakase. I figured for the 500th review, it should be a happy one. I had Tempura Matsui bookmarked for more than 10 years. To call it just a tempura menu does not do it justice. If you have never been to a true tempura restaurant (hard to find outside of Japan), the precision cooking and preparation that goes into it is another level. To be candid, I actually enjoyed this more than both tempura tastings I've had in Tokyo. We came for lunch and so glad we did. Easily top 5 meals of 2023. At $160 pp it is a lot of food and really a great value for the kind of ingredients and expertise you're getting. Starters were a Japanese potato salad with salmon roe and a sashimi plate. Both excellent. The tempura progression starts right away and the service was fantastic. Each piece as it came out was explained, advised on how to enjoy it for optimum flavor and all the different salts, condiments, etc. Each piece and the recommended salt/sauce pairing is very intentional. Each tempura is cooked to the precise timing to maximize the quality of the ingredient, provide a crispy exterior while maintaining an overall light palette feel to the meal. There was not a bad piece but typically the fried shrimp heads start first. So delicate, the crispy legs with the hot inside is a great starter. The maitake mushroom with the natural sprigs provides for maximum crunch and a deep earthy umami flavor. The Japanese whiting is light/fleshy with the bone fried out where it's basically a fish chip for extra crispiness. The sweet king crab leg wrapped in shiso is sweet, refreshing, crispy all at once. The Japanese eggplant was so elegantly crisp on the outside but piping hot on the inside. I especially enjoyed the recommendation to tear it open and stuff it with the bonito flakes for a flavor bomb sandwich if you will. The sea eel though, nice and big with so many crispy clusters and almost creamy-like texture on the meat. Sea eel is my favorite tempura piece, period. You can opt to get the fried tempura cluster over rice or tendon or the tempura and tea over rice. I recommend the tendon. Tendon is half the reason to even go to a tempura tasting. We all know the best part of an omakase (outside of the tuna) is the hand roll. If there's no hand roll, it feels like a miss. Like who wants a burger without the fries? The grapefruit jelly pudding was the perfect way to cleanse the palette and end on a note overly sweet note. Tempura Matsui is a place I'd recommend if you're into Japanese food, fine dining or just great food period. My only regret, I should have started coming here way earlier.
We came for a Friday lunch and was seated at the bar.
Able to watch the chef work his tempura magic. Tempura was lightly battered to perfection and the perfect internal temperature. Definitely the most extensive tempura selection I've ever eaten. I enjoyed that they had two options for how to eat the tempura, the dashi with tempura dip or lemon and salt. Seafood paired well with the lemon since it's less overpowering. The tempura dip was also absolutely magical. Beancurd with roe Tuna, toro, octopus - from Toyosu market. Shrimp head - excellent Shrimp leg - Maitake mushroom - 2nd favorite White fish Snow crab wrapped in shiso - my favorite thing Corn Scallop - interesting, but didn't taste better in tempura form. Lotus and shrimp - least favorite Mushroom leg eggplant Uni wrapped in seabass and shishito pepper - 3rd favorite Shokuji Tencha - this was quite light with the tencha, I think I prefer the tendon. Grapefruit whiskey cream - each pulp individually removed and delicious. Unique dessert.

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

This app is a catfish and overrun by people programming “bots” and algorithms. It makes it frustrating for someone not well versed in this to have any movement. I thought this would be a fun side hustle, but unfortunately it’s become like any other “side hustle”. Don’t waste your time with this crap. Not a question, just a suggestion. Also don’t pay these fake “gurus” hundreds of dollars to teach you. Might as well sign up for a software class. 😕
