Perfect food, nice sake suggestions from a very attentive waiter, nice setting, good noise level. Perfection in all senses

We found this small, but very special place by chance. Hidden behind a small black door on East 5th Street is this nondiscript "Jewel" for any fan of contemporary and authentic Sushi and Sashimi. It has been awarded a Michelin Star for the past several years not because of any fancy interior design, which is kept to the basics, but for the amazing food prepared there. A bit pricey, but definitely worth it. I had the the tasting menu, which was the perfect introduction for a first time visit. My wife had a selection from their a la carte menu , which was brilliant as well. Even something simple like a Misu soup was so tasty, that I have seldom tasted outside of Japan. They even make their own Soya sauce and the wasabi is freshly ground and served at your table. By no way comparable with any of the "off the shelf " produce you get in a mainstream conveyor belt fly by sushi. We will definitely be back.
