Editorial Review
Despite its noodle shop billing, this overly bright and under-decorated Kensington gateway gets its rep for immaculate sushi (not to be confused with Forest Hill’s Edo or the concession stand chain). Lofters and Japanese college cliques eschew bland noodles, dry dumplings and teriyaki bento boxes for more delicate, refined raw-fish options. Rolls range from multi-textured soft-shell crab to slow-burn spicy salmon. Expert barbecuing gives unagi sashimi perfect salty simplicity. Rainbow roll delivers a pot of gold: shingles of tuna, salmon, yellowtail, barbecued eel, snapper and saba drape across a cylinder of rice wrapping soft avocado, crab and cucumber. Vinegared, sweet wakame seaweed salad is light years ahead of iceberg, the budget sushi standard.
