The upscale establishment, which also has a flagship in Baltimore’s Four Seasons Hotel, serves dishes like scallop tiradito, flounder crudo, and crispy rice with spicy tuna or truffle avocado. Beyond seafood, it offers wagyu short rib, Yakisoba noodles, and favorites like Flaming King Crab roll, miso black cod, fried rice, and chicken gyoza. Diners can enjoy a selection of over 60 sakes, rare Japanese whiskeys, and signature cocktails. The interior, designed by Patrick Sutton, features natural materials and traditional Japanese elements.
