"The food here is all on point (as it should be, considering the two Michelin stars), but we especially like Ishizaka's beautifully crafted otsumami small bites that go beyond the usual grilled and simmered fish dishes common to other sushi-ya. Ishikawa pairs sweet crab with blanched rape blossoms and two kinds of fish roe, and shrimp with maitake mushroom and lotus root. For the nigiri, he uses red vinegar for stronger-flavored fish and white vinegar for milder ones." - Melinda Joe
