"Launched by the Bognar family—whose decades-long sushi presence includes Nippon Tei—this St. Louis sushi restaurant focuses on dry-aged fish and Wagyu beef with a menu split into cool and hot sections. Expect techniques like black-tea curing (kanpachi) and binchōtan grilling on dry-aged kinmedai, plus classics such as unagi kabayaki; the offering blends refined Japanese training with family culinary legacy and will become the family’s primary effort when their original restaurant closes in the fall." - ByKate Kassin
