SUteiShi Japanese Restaurant

Rooted in the South Street Seaport for over two decades, this family-owned Japanese tapas spot pairs classic sushi and fusion rolls with a broad non-sushi menu. Diners can order ramen, tapas, or try hot-rock self-grilling with options like filet mignon and fish—making it easy to accommodate groups with non-sushi eaters. When weather allows, the space opens to the sidewalk facing a small park, expanding its compact dining room into the neighborhood.
