Description

Run by an older Japanese couple since 2008, this quiet establishment is easily missed from the street and opens only a few days a week for brief windows. The kitchen focuses on careful execution, featuring sashimi made with fish flown directly from Japan, tender black cod, and crispy hirekatsu. While the pricing reflects a splurge, the quality rivals Manhattan's Japanese dining scene, making it a prized local alternative.
