"Sushi By Hidden, from the team behind Hidden Omakase, is a 45-minute set menu dinner (30 minutes at lunch) in Rice Village. The tiny, hidden sushi bar only fits 10 people, which means you’ll be elbow-to-elbow with some strangers. But small talk isn’t really the point here—you’ll need every second of the half-hour experience to focus on throwing back pieces of madai snapper and kanpachi. Since it takes longer to get an oil change than to dine at Sushi By Hidden, there’s plenty of time afterward to take a leisurely stroll through the NFT gallery that this place is hidden behind." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene, andrew ryce
"From the team behind Hidden Omakase, Sushi By Hidden is an intimate sushi counter that fits 10 people and serves a 30-minute omakase. Which means you’ll be elbow-to-elbow with some strangers. But small talk isn’t the point here—you’ll need every second of the half-hour experience to focus on throwing back pieces of madai snapper and kanpachi doled out by the chefs who are like cool, sushi blackjack dealers." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
"The 30 minute experience at Sushi By Hidden bravely answers the question, “What would it be like to have an omakase that’s about the length of an Abbott Elementary episode?” Created by the folks behind Hidden Omakase, the compact sushi bar is made up of a gray counter and enough seats for 10 people. So plan on spending your time either fiercely minding your business or slyly eavesdropping as you throw back pieces of madai snapper and kanpachi. And with all the time saved from the omakase, you can take a stroll through the NFT art gallery that this place is hidden behind." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
"Concealed behind a mock art gallery in the bustling Rice Village shopping district, this 10-seat omakase counter is for diners looking for a fast lunch with a lasting impression. From the same owners of Hidden Omakase, Sushi by Hidden offers 40-minute omakase meals, showcasing 12 courses of nigiri, hand rolls, and more, for $60. Looking for something to sip on? The restaurant, once BYOB, now also offers its own sake-based cocktails, including a spicy sake margarita." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Whether stopping in for a brief, satisfying lunch or making a pitstop before after-dinner drinks or dessert, Sushi by Hidden invites diners in through its speakeasy-style entrance, modeled after an art gallery, for a 12-piece omakase experience served in just 30 minutes. In addition to its off-the-menu sushi items, which include an irresistible smoky engawa nigiri, the restaurant now also offers sake-based drinks, including a spicy, citrusy sake margarita lined with sugar and Tajín." - Brittany Britto Garley
