Dining room at Oishii, Chestnut Hill, MAIf you plan to visit Oishii’s Chestnut Hill location for lunch or dinner, you may encounter a lengthy wait. That’s because this tiny hot-spot only has a handful of seats, and it’s also due to the fact that the ex-Nobu maestros who run the place stand behind the counter like Iron Chefs, daring you to dare them to make you something fabulous. Of course, they will win you over with lunch box maki specials and grilled black cod with miso sauce. Sushi rolls reign supreme --- tuna is exquisitely fatty; geoduck is a textural wonder; and the omakase is justifiably renowned. The spicy seafood udon noodle dish is filled with shrimp, scallops, fish cake and vegetables. Crab cakes float down your throat; diamond shrimp --- butterflied and stuffed with hotate hokaiyaki --- are triumphantly sweet and sassy; paper-thin strips of red clam tangle with lemon and seaweed. Wash it all down with some Japanese green tea. A beer and wine menu is also available. Your best bet may be to take your lunch to go. Oishii Too is located at 365 Boston Post Rd., Sudbury, 978-440-8300.
