Jun-I

Frommer's Review

At first glance, this looks like a standard sushi bar -- effusive greetings from the chefs behind the counter, traditional-looking maki, and other bits of fish and rice. But the experienced eponymous chef, Junichi Ikematsu, has ideas that go far beyond the tired fabrications that first introduced us to edible raw seafood. We won't soon forget the unagi roll -- thick rounds of sticky rice encasing grilled eel and avocado stood on end, sprinkled with flying fish roe and supporting a tiny grove of colorful micro-greens. Stick with the sushi and you won't go wrong, although there are options of more conventional, but precisely grilled meats and fish. Dessert includes non-Japanese but tasty tiramisu, chocolate cake, and cheesecake.
