Chef Shigeyuki Tsunoda's iconic eight-seat half-moon shaped counter is fronted by the team's cocktail den, Shinji. Throughout this arena, the signature speak-easy vibe is a distinct element and the dark cozy space with exposed brick walls is a prized spot for some excellent sushi enhanced by an impressive beverage program with vintage champagne and a comprehensive sake collection showcasing rare bottles not found elsewhere. Chef Shigeyuki Tsunoda undertakes his duties with calm, unhurried efficiency and his omakase is rooted in tradition. Confident knife cuts, warmed rice and pristine fish are par for the course. The meal begins with small snacks before progressing into the pristine nigiri, where the standouts, among many, are sea eel and two kinds of uni.
