"Given the larger-than-life reputation of this cult-classic sushi and omakase restaurant—and not just because it’s Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s favorite date night spot—you would expect it to have a more grandiose address than a 30-seat dining room off an anonymous side street in the Leather District. But that's the magic of O Ya: The food is enough to make it a must-try for any serious sushi enthusiast passing through Boston. The 20+ course omakase menu consists of a mix of both sushi and sashimi ranging from traditional to inventive, then culminates with a few savory courses. Some dishes are deeply traditional, but some throw unexpected flavors into the mix, like foie gras and truffle." - Todd Plummer, Shannon McMahon
