Tyson Cole's modern Japanese restaurant in a converted bungalow on South Lamar, open since 2003, with booths, floral wallpaper and a long sushi bar. It's known for cold plates like the hama chili (yellowtail with ponzu and orange) and for its nigiri. Bookings open a month ahead and go fast. Walk-ins can try for a bar seat when it opens. If you're living in NYC or London (or any major city) this place won't impress you, but if you're in Austin and craving sushi it's your best option.
