Sushi @ Temple Records

The 28 Best Restaurants In Boston - Boston - The Infatuation

"Sushi @ Temple Records has ruined most other sushi spots for us. Walking into the basement space underneath the vinyl bar feels a bit like visiting your cool friend’s older sister’s apartment as a teenager. The brick walls are covered with colorful murals, and a tightly curated soundtrack plays deep cuts from the bar’s collection upstairs. What you should order is a moriawase set (preferably the kan shiromi with torched sea bream and fluke), the spicy tuna maki roll made with sesame oil and not a drop of mayo, the owan bowl with silken sesame-studded tofu topped with boba-like salmon roe, and of course as much nigiri as you can put down. The food menu changes with the tides, but the Brooklyn Kura Blue Door sake is a constant, and refreshing, way to rinse down all that raw fish." - tanya edwards, jonathan smith
