My children were cheated, they had no more their old favorites, but still enjoyed the food. I loved the pig belly and tofu. Will be back to try other new items on the menu. So cozy and authentic. This was my second visit, and I was immediately transported back at that time I went to Tokyo and had sushi in a small place like Toraya. That taste! You know what I mean if you love real Japanese food. I didn't hear many Japanese talking around me in Boston. There were three separate parties from Japanese people who spoke in Japanese. The waitress spoke Japanese. The Sushi Cook - I'm pretty sure he's Japanese and went to this old fashion sushi school. I can't think of a sushi place in the bigger Boston area that is run by Japanese sushi master. I feel like it's a dying tradition in leasing in the USA and enjoy it while you can! (Vs. Uni, which is also great, but this is almost different kind of kitchen in my book). Note: There is always waiting so it is difficult if you have small children. There is no room to put the stroller in the room. It's worth it.
