The
Atmosphere:
Rare is the time when all 13 seats aren't taken in the
blink-and-you'll-miss-it dining room. Odds are once you're
seated, you'll find yourself face-to-fish at the sushi bar,
where expert hands slice and roll fresh, top-quality
seafood.
The Food:
While the sushi is superb, don't neglect the rest of the
extensive menu, as the hot dishes are exceptional as well.
For starters, the miso soup is light and flavorful, and the
shrimp and vegetable tempura isn't greasy. The beef yaki
ishi, a heaping portion of vegetables, rice, and steak on a
sizzling stone grill, lets you cook. Regarding Oishii's
sushi, the options seem endless; the rolls are filling and
of the highest quality. The Boston maki features salmon,
avocado, cucumber, and Boston lettuce, and fresh, tangy
pickled ginger and butt-kicking wasabi add to the
experience.
