: Don't let Akasaka’s location deter you from pursuing this hidden gem. Tucked between various strip bars and a jazz club, the place offers food that alone is worth seeking out, and the warm, friendly staff adds to the experience. Check the menu to find the fresh fish, including daily specials. We recommend the omakase experience, which lets the sushi chefs lead the way. Cooked items are also tasty. Try the scallop battayaki or agedashi tofu, too. Beverages are limited, but adequate.
