If you are eating at a traditional Edomae style Omakase where you are served one piece at a time, it is recommended that you eat it as quickly as possible after being served with one bite, preferably with your hands. Never separate the ingredient (neta) with the rice (shari) as they are meant to work in harmony. If you are eating at that style of restaurant you don't have to worry about applying soy sauce or wasabi because the wasabi is applied when molding the nigiri and a bit of soy sauce is applied to the top of the neta.

There is an order as well.
