"We all know size matters, but rather than making us feel cramped, Kinjo Room in The Interlock makes us feel like we’re VIP’s fresh off a hot tip about an exclusive club specializing in sushi. It’s just one small room with roughly ten tables and a bar. The candle-lit space is perfect if you want to enjoy dinner with someone you actually like. Electronic-pop and artsy cover music play softly in the background as you sample small plates (we recommend the tender A5 Wagyu beef or lobster box rolls). So you can really feel like a VIP, make sure to grab a reservation for weekends and peak dinner times." - nina reeder, juli horsford, jacinta howard
