The gentle torch on this is genius. Adds a warmth without losing the sweetness. The sweet soy reduction is *chef's kiss*.

Sake (Salmon) · 3 days ago

Thick-cut, perfectly seasoned, melt-in-your-mouth. This is the salmon nigiri other restaurants wish they could serve.

Sake (Salmon) · 3 days ago

The fat content on this salmon is insane. I closed my eyes on the first bite and my friend thought I was having a moment. I was.

When they have it, you ORDER it. Creamy, briny perfection. This is a once-in-a-while experience you don't want to miss.

That kabayaki glaze is otherworldly. Sweet, smoky — I literally could not stop at one order. Had three.

The table next to us ordered this and we immediately added it. The yuzu-chili aioli has a sneaky kick. Outstanding.

A classic done right. The eel and avocado draping is gorgeous, and the sauce is perfectly balanced.

Sometimes classic is classic for a reason. This is the best spicy tuna roll I've ever had. Period. No gimmicks needed.

Wagyu tataki in a sushi roll. With truffle oil. I didn't know I needed this in my life but here we are. Transcendent.

Creative and delicious. The shiso really elevates it. Definitely going off-plan was the right call.

This is luxury on a plate. The pink peppercorn adds a floral note that's unexpected and lovely.

Scallop Carpaccio · 1 weeks ago

Thin enough to read through — they weren't joking. The truffle ponzu is subtle and gorgeous. Hokkaido scallops are worth the hype.

Possibly the best thing I've ever eaten in Indianapolis. The yellowtail just melts, and the heat from the kosho is perfect.
