A Center City restaurant with a café-and-sushi-bar front and a hidden basement izakaya — descend the stairs into a dimly-lit space serving an extensive sushi program, robata grills, and a cocktail bar that runs late. The format is theatrical; the cooking is serious; the basement room feels genuinely tucked away. For an after-work Japanese dinner with the energy of a discovery.
