"This nine-seat sushi counter hidden inside Capitol Hill’s Broadway Alley has an array of offerings besides seafood on its artful multi-course omakase menu. Still, master chef Hideaki Taneda’s Edomae-style sushi preparations are the main event. Each seasonal dish is lovingly crafted and presented like mini gifts — a one-of-a-kind experience in a city with plenty of competition. Reservations are normally booked out at least a month in advance; your best shot at snagging a seat is regularly checking the restaurant’s website to get a reservation as soon as new spots open up or adding yourself to the waitlist and hoping someone cancels." - Harry Cheadle
