This is an amazing little sushi lounge with a tight and powerful menu - there is nothing extraneous on the page and the plates are packed with flavour. No wonder Michelin has already taken notice of this hip and casual little spot on Avenue A.
The friendly and knowledgeable staff told us to get the ceviche with scallops and calamansi and spicy avocado roll for a late night light bite. We obliged, and were made very happy.
The ceviche was super fresh and had the perfect sprinkling of crunch with the surprising addition of corn and corn nuts, and the avocado roll had that perfect balance of heat and acid. In lieu of standard soy sauce you get a ponzu variation, with rice vinegar and mirin.
We were seated at the window bar and our window-mate ordered a delicious looking creamy white concoction - in fact she had come out late night just to get that and a glass of wine - so we of course had to try it as well. It's a coconut milk sorbet like no other. With basil oil and basil blossoms. Don't miss it.
