The sushi bar is the centerpiece of the restaurant. The usual nigiri sushi, atop rice, is made from pristinely fresh fish. Cone-shaped temaki are served on wooden stands. The chefs have created a number of imaginative sushi rolls, including a beautiful rainbow roll with avocado and flying-fish roe. If you like your food cooked, order the very good beef or chicken teriyaki or the katsu, a breaded and fried filet of pork or chicken.
Lunch is much less expensive.
