The name means "sushi smile," and the chef apparently means it. This Osaka omakase counter opens with small snacks before moving into nigiri built with a precision that borders on theatrical, sesame seeds folded into the sushi rice for a faint roasted warmth. Clams come broiled to a deep, almost funky fragrance; sweet shrimp arrives with its roe cured in soy. The pacing is leisurely, the mood unhurried, which the whole thing seems designed to encourage.
