Signature Dishes

  • Red sea urchin

    Sweet and fresh with a kumquat accent; also cleanly sweet, with no alum taste overpowering the sea flavor.

  • Eel hand roll

    A senbei-like crisp exterior, tender eel with no noticeable bones, and a sweet, not-too-heavy sauce.

  • Monkfish liver ice cream

    A peanut-like exterior surrounds monkfish liver ice cream, with a rich flavor.
