I highly recommend Saiko when you're not in a hurry.

Food was excellent; service was friendly & accurate (i.e., got the order right), but it took quite a while to get our food even though the restaurant was mostly empty.

This was probably my best sushi experience, ever. It was so good the first time, I came in again the next night with my wife. The staff here are just awesome, Shing-Ichi especially. They've been making sushi for decades & their dedication is evident in the experience. My suggestion is to go to the bar, & order the Chef's Choice, where they will provide a selection of Nigiri that will knock your socks off.
