One thing I'd add is to temper your expectations for the popular sushi restaurants (Ex: Saito, Arai, etc.) ,. From what I've read, there's been a sushi boom as of late. This had the effect of driving prices up and making difficult reservations even harder to get. Be prepared to give a list of places to your concierge.
