A 200-year-old hinoki counter anchors this intimate omakase room on Avenue Road, where Chef Masaki Saito flies his fish exclusively from Japan and keeps the atmosphere warm enough that laughter genuinely competes with reverence. The room itself is a statement, all traditional woodwork and quiet ceremony, and the price is serious. It holds a Michelin star. Come prepared to surrender the evening and let the chef decide everything.
