Sushi Oku

The space feels like a lived-in neighborhood bar, styled with tchotchkes, dioramas, Japanese newspaper clippings, and old magazines. The dining experience is tailored for sushi purists with its classic preparation, yet the atmosphere is kept approachable by a non-intimidating service style that accommodates ingredient swaps. The structured courses also include occasional playful exceptions, most notably an ice cream sandwich dessert to close the meal.
