"The valley’s fresh sushi options range from the splurge-worthy Matsuhisa to the solid, affordable Joy, but for something especially intimate, head to Osaki’s. Chef Takeshi Osaki learned the skill of sushi-making from his grandfather in Osaka, and he trained at Nobu’s Aspen outpost before opening his own spot in the heart of Vail Village. Opt for the Omakase Nigiri (eight pieces) or the Omakase Anything, a fuller spread of sushi and signature dishes." - Katie Shapiro
