The fast-casual concept goes Japanese with the latest offering from the people behind Tokyo Express. The decor is handsome and airy, with comfortable seating and lots of potted palms. Think soups, tempura, grilled tofu, sushi and the like served in an upscale setting with an order counter. Menu winners include the shrimp and vegetable tempura appetizer and entrees like the miso yaki, duck salad and thin-sliced ginger pork.
