I found this little known sushi restaurant almost 10 years ago. Kazu is the owner and head sushi chef there, and the sushi is spectacular.
If you're a little adventurous in your sushi ordering, get my favorites: uni with quail egg sushi and amaebi (raw sweet shrimp) sushi. Both are the best I've had in many sushi restaurants from coast to coast. The amaebi is truly sweet and succulent, aged just the right amount of time to be the best in town. The amaebi comes with the shrimp heads tempura fried. It sounds weird and looks even weirder, but I’ll be darned if they also aren't the best fried shrimp heads I've had around town. If they don't bring it after your amaebi order, don't be afraid to ask for it. Sometimes they forget. The uni (sea urchin) with quail egg is exotic, but pop it in your mouth and you really will experience a taste explosion. If you ask for "rabbit salad," which isn't really on the menu, Kazu will create a Japanese salad with a variety of sashimi. His mixed scallop sushi is also quite delicious and succulent.
Most people go to some of the better known and spot-your-favorite-celeb sushi restaurants down the street from Kazu, but I've seen my share of celebs there at Kazu. In fact, William Shatner started frequenting Kazu so often that when he saw my friend and I, he would give us a nod of acknowledgement (which, to me, is like getting the secret handshake from Captain Kirk himself!).
It’s a bit pricey, but well worth the price for a special treat once in a while.
