"One of the most critically-lauded sushi restaurants in recent years, Sozai is known both for its commitment to sustainable sourcing practices and for its omakase meals. One key feature, its emphasis on plant-based ingredients like sweet potato — which chef Hajime Sato has used for a more sustainable take on eel — along with fried tofu in mushroom sauce, and vegetable tempura. Makes for an ideal balance for dining parties where some can enjoy seafood, while vegans and vegetarians can still find incredibly prepared options." - Eater Staff
