When I go to Japanese/Sushi restaurants for the first time, I typically belly up at the sushi bar and order omakase. The tasting that I had at Hokusai was amazing. I loved all of the sushi dishes as well as the food that was brought out from the kitchen. All in all I'd say I had 6 or 7 small dishes and none of them disappointed. The server and the manager made fabulous recommendations and I could not have been happier or more stuffed. I am definitely going back. If anyone does try the omakase just mention any dislikes or allergies and the chefs can work around them. In fact you can also let them know if there's anything you want in particular.
Pros: omakase, service
