SUSHI MIZUKAMI
Hope this is not derailing the thread too much but thank you so much for this recommendation. I got a reservation through the IC Tokyo Bay concierge for my brother and I and we could not have been happier with our choice.
A great mix of refined but not uptight, owner speaks enough English to make the evening interactive (which we enjoyed tremendously). Not a sushi expert by any stretch but this was, by far, the best omakase experience of my life. Never had salt water eel before, and you now you are in for a treat when the first side dish (eggplant and gluten) is a home run.
