"Sushi Bar is a Japanese spot serving up Edomae-style sushi in the heart of quaint Old Greenwich. While the takeout is some of the best around, we recommend going in person, keeping in mind that it’s BYOB—there’s a wine shop a few doors down with an ample sake selection if you forgot yours at home. The chef makes every component of his sushi from scratch, including ground-to-order fresh wasabi and a sweet house-marinated ikura with taut and glossy (but never slimy) eggs. First timers will enjoy the omakase for its breadth of techniques and bar-raising nigiri toppings, like crispy onions, foie gras, and caviar. Supplement the omakase with at least one cut roll, like the salmon tsukemono with fatty chopped fish juxtaposing a rainbow assortment of pickles. Skip the dumplings, as they’re one of the only things not made in house, and instead save some space for crackly matcha creme brulee for dessert." - chloe zale, ciera velarde
