Japanese rations in the Financial District



Known for its vast bounty of fresh fish, Bay City has always been fertile ground for Japanese restaurants.

Guests surrender their right to choose: the eatery follows the Japanese principle of omakase, wherein the selection of entrees is left entirely up to the chef.
