Uni

"The newly updated and expandedUni—a Boston mainstay that originally opened in 2002 from James Beard Award-winning chefKen Oringer(Toro, Coppa) and 2018 nomineeTony Messina—is a sophisticated izakaya in a surprisingly unpretentious setting. While the menu is only as healthy as you want it to be—you can order something called a cheeseburger roll as well as orange tofu "food court style”—there’s also an abundance of nigiri and delicate sashimi options like sake salmon with black bean, ginger, and cilantro, and the hamachi yellowtail with ponzu powder and pickled chili." - ByMelissa Malamut
