There is Alinea at 1723 N. Halsted with fits the very expensive and cool website descriptions, but I wouldn't exactly call it japanese/sushi/oriental.
www.alinearestaurant.com
There is also Itto Sushi at 2616 N. Halsted St. (www.ittosushi.com) but that's been around forever, and doesn't fit your description.
Starting with an "o", I can only find Osys (www.osyssushi.com) but they are on Grand in river north, not Halsted.

I've been wanting to go for awhile now, Mrs Sweet Willie and I had one of the most memorable meals of our lives at Trio restaurant in Evanston when Chef Grant Achatz was there. Now that he is at/owns Alinea, I have to imagine that things are even better.
