Handies Douzo
From the outside, what looks like a modest home with an adorable porch is actually Handies Douzo, a sushi restaurant in the Heights that specializes in handrolls. The inside of Handies is entirely made up of a wraparound counter with chefs in the center wheeling and dealing out handrolls like cool sushi dealers. You should definitely get the buttery BGB salmon sake handroll or the refreshing crab handroll (or get a double hit of both). You can also order sake that comes in a cute juice box, in case you want to unlock your inner child while you’re eating thickly cut slices of hamachi. At Handies, there is a cap of 75 minutes per reservation, so swing by for a quick bite by yourself or with a pal.
