This upscale sushi spot aims to stand out with an emphasis on Japanese cuisine and seriousness about sake. The restaurant offers an extensive sake list and also features carefully selected sake-and-food pairings. If straight sake is a bit too strong for you, try the oba martini or mojito. Signature items include the scorpion roll, a soft-shell crab and cucumber roll topped with seared tuna, as well as citrus spring rolls, which feature spicy tuna, lettuce and crab meat wrapped in rice paper and topped with sliced pear.
