Guests are asked to arrive thirty minutes before their seating to partake in appetizers and cocktails. Before I could sit in the dimly lit 10-guest lounge, I was asked about dietary restrictions, offered a hot towel to clean my hands, a Japanese whiskey cocktail, and an oyster uni sake shooter. I was then led to a candlelit cocktail table to wait for my guest and enjoy two more canapés to arrive by the chef.
I left Sushi by Scratch with a full belly and a smile on my face knowing one thing: I will now be having omakase every year for my birthday moving forward.Support our Racial Equity Journalism
