Suntory Hibiki Japanese Harmony $140.00

Suntory Hibiki 21 Years $1,500.00
Bronze amber in color, suntory hibiki 21 year old is amazingly balanced and tenderly unfolding a calm essence of sandalwood, honeycomb, caramelized nuts, ripe banana and rich sherry spice. The rich and complex palate offers notes of cooked fruit, dried apricot, dark cherry, caramel, spice and mizunara. Hints of incense and smoke lingers through the long, structured finish.
Hakusyu 18 Years $990.00
Suntory is one of the largest makers of alcoholic beverages in the world. Its products include such favourites as the yamazaki and hibiki and of course, the hakushu, which remains just as popular.

Single malt Japanese whisky aged 12 years.
Hakusyu 12years $220.00
On the nose it opens with a bouquet of fresh green leaves, green apple, pear, and soft smoke. On the palate, pear and butter cookie flavors give it a crisp yet sweet taste. The finish is soft, pleasantly-smoked and dry - with almost minty undertones.
Suntory Haku Vodka $60.00
A soft aroma played up by the sweet, delicate floral aroma of rice. A rich taste that gradually envelops the mouth with the natural sweetness and complex flavor of the rice. A smooth finish with a sophisticated, pleasantly lingering sweetness thanks to the bamboo charcoal filtration process.

Really enjoyed this lunch set. The sashimi was fresh and well-cut, and even the sushi rice stood out—warm, well-seasoned, and perfectly cooked.Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Everything felt thoughtful and well-prepared. Would definitely come back.

Excellent! Amazing execution of a menu that scales from affordable to Manhattan-night-out. My wife and I were perfectly happy making a meal of some tapas-sized dishes and the (truly excellent) duck entree, along with some Happy Hour drinks; we left, very happy, very well fed, and with our wallets intact. But if you’d like to take that up a notch, this restaurant will be happily to take you to some impressive heights.

Cool place for dinner. Prices are a bit on a higher end, but still affordable. The food was amazing. Definitely worth a visit.

Came here after a long day of work because I wanted to treat myself and WOW. I was not disappointed. I am healed.Ordered the salmon hitsumabushi (salmon sashimi with salmon flakes and fried salmon skin). The very patient, exacting server explained how to eat it: plain, then with toppings and finally with dashi broth. Extremely simple and satisfying. I can't wait to come back!

Lunch great! Love chirashi. Shame some runs out fast.-----Used to come more often to Eastside... when working for Japanese firm... Sushi Yasuda, etc...One of the best.. especially after Sushiden's gone. Like Sushi Ann, Hatsuhana, Hakubai as well as Sushi of Gari's too. But, not as of a fan for Sugarfish.Here.. tall ceiling, good decor of woods, Japanese tiles, ropes... ambiance with bar full of Japanese sake and beer welcoming.Food excellent. Both mix of generous portion as well as high quality pieces. $150 omakase not the only option... thus, wide spectrum from Sushi enthusiasts as well as casual drinking, tapas-like scene.Love dashi mini pot. Can't resist refill. Always end up ordering more... but, eat all...Arigato
