"A speakeasy-style sushi restaurant that started in Los Angeles, makes its own sauces, expanded to 10 locations, and has held a Michelin star. The New York location is headed for 922 Broadway at East 21st Street. The space features a 10-seat counter with a lounge used for cocktails and canapes before and after its 16-course omakase. The New York restaurant’s $225 “omakase-inspired tasting” is served inside a “very interactive” restaurant, starting with cocktails and canapes, moving to the sushi counter, and wrapping up in the lounge with a farewell drink. Dishes include Japanese freshwater eel seasoned with matcha, bluefin tuna topped with fresh pineapple, and a Makrut lime ice cream bar." - Melissa McCart
