Shiso Noodles feels very South Street. The dining room has some upscale touches, like an entirely glass entryway and a sleek u-shaped sushi bar, but you’ll also find groups in the corner sneaking sake shots underneath the table. It’s an energetic, easygoing place to get overwhelmed by an enormous menu of chicken buns, ramen, dry aged ribeye, and sushi. Skip the indecision and the ramen, and instead opt for the miso cod in a sweet glaze, and crunchy spicy tuna. They have classic maki, hand rolls, and a chef’s tasting that features rare cuts like citrusy Japanese shako. Stop in for lunch or to fill up with plates of sashimi before or after a night of chaos nearby.
