Description:
It's obvious from the crowds that this is the downtown destination for Japanese cuisine. The expansive restaurant fills up at lunch, as does the sidewalk dining area. Inside, the clean-lined space sports lots of wood and select Asian accents. If you're with a group, search for a table, or find one of the tatami rooms; if you're alone, the sushi bar is ideal. Speaking of, the selection of sushi and sashimi is enormous, including everything from the familiar to the exotic, not to mention a few local specialties, such as the caterpillar roll (smoked salmon and barbecued eel) and the cowboy roll (aged beef, ginger, and cucumber). You can order by the piece or have a platter made up with your favorites. If you crave something else, look for teriyaki and tempura dinners, and make sure you don't forget to try the sake. Presentation and service are both outstanding.
