- OTOpenTable DinerPhiladelphia County •5 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWow, wow, and wowwwwww!!!!!!!!! After years of traveling to NYC for Sushi by Bou omakase, all over their multiple speakeasy locations…… we finally have our very own in Philly. Even more, I am completely blown away by Chef Harris and the amazing staff at the Midtown location. If you haven’t tried omakase or love perfectly curated bites of premium fish, you must try this (it’s not like normal sushi)!!! The space is one of the best locations (this is my 7th one 😂) I’ve been to… so beautiful, large, roomy and comfortable to enjoy a cocktail before. Shout to the bartender, I’ve loved everything I tried including the classic Yuzu drink on the menu, Coy Pond special, Pumpkin Espresso martini special, and Yuzu lemon drop martini. I didn’t drink this all at once 😅, I visited twice this week and still can’t get enough. I will be back very soon 🙃.More infoSushi by Bou - Midtown PA @ RawPrice: Very Expensive• Sushi• Center City•4.5
