Bar Miller sits on East 6th Street in Manhattan, a sushi counter with a handful of seats. The chefs center their cooking on New York-local and sustainable catches, skipping the traditional omakase formula and using New York-grown rice; the guide highlights Montauk fluke with apple granita, and nigiri of Maine uni and South Carolina shrimp, with fish offcuts turned into tostada. It earned one MICHELIN Star in 2025. [1][2]
The official 2024 MICHELIN Guide New York stars article listed it as a one-star restaurant. [3]
Overview
The guide describes this diminutive counter as favoring personality over minimalism: bold colors, custom ceramics and an unmistakably relaxed energy. The chefs' nontraditional omakase is grounded in sustainable sourcing, much of it local — from North American fish to New York-grown rice; the beverage program mirrors this ethos with local wine, beer and cider, plus a sake list spanning Brooklyn-based breweries and Japan.
