Morimoto is an expensive sushi restaurant in Old City with interiors that kind of look like the glowing buildings in Tron. It’s a good place to suggest when your client says “I’m buying,” or your boss asks where they should take the team for a celebratory dinner with rounds of sake (they have an impressively long list). You should go for classic rolls like spicy tuna and soft shell crab over the $165 omakase (it’s pretty much just a remixed version of the regular dinner menu). It’s pricey, but since you can casually walk in, the extra money is worth avoiding reloading a reservation page on a loop just to get in elsewhere.
