15 East
Traditional-sushi lovers rejoice: this is your spot. The large, geometric lights that look like massive paper lanterns and sleek, minimalist interior (done in dark brown and creamy white with red flourishes) will transport you right to Japan. Chef Masato Shimizu relies on daily shipments of fresh fish (such as silverfish, salmon, all sorts of yellowtail, mackerel and eel) flown in from his native island to make his delectable sushi and sashimi.

Matsuri
People pay so much attention to the decor - the ceiling looks just like the hull of an overturned samurai ship - that the food plays second fiddle. That's a shame, because with fresh rice grains flown in daily from Japan, and staples like fluke sashimi with red pepper and ponzu, sake black cod and yellowtail sashimi with ginger vinegar sauce, it merits your full attention.

Blue Ribbon Sushi Brooklyn
Brooklynites don’t like to admit it, but generally Manhattan dominates in the raw seafood tourney. This Manhattan chain’s mini-outpost is the 718’s best. An inviting warmly lit interior with wood booths and friendly waiters delivers a long list of sashimi, sushi and maki rolls. Pick and choose or go for the sushi/sashimi combo instead.

Kanoyama
No-fuss, no-muss sushi with fresh daily specials in the heart of the East Village, Kanoyama is a local favorite that so far has been overlooked by the city's big-name food critics (that might explain its unpretentious air). You can order sushi à la carte or in rolls, or choose from the many tempura plates.

honmura an
Soba and udon noodles are served hot or cold and topped with everything from giant prawn tempura to fish cakes and wild Japanese greens. Fresh sashimi and 'soba gnocchi' are always available, and Honmura An also does small plates of everything for those who can't make up their minds.

Citrus
Adding a little sultry heat to sushi with chipotle spice and habanero peppers, Citrus likes to take culinary traditions and mix 'em up. The results, brash and brassy on the tongue, go well with the bright and splashy colors at Citrus, part bar, part eatery and very, very busy.
