NYC’s first full-service 2D-themed Japanese spot pairs playful visuals with a solid, affordable omakase. The food is straightforward and fresh, while the black-and-white sketchbook interior makes it feel like a mini event. Best for dates wanting something a little different from the usual sushi counter.
