True to its name, this dark, intimate space is sealed off from the strip mall outside—but when it comes to its reputation for a showy, immersive experience, the secret is certainly out. In the care of Chef Marcos Juarez, this 18-seat counter features a wide array of premium seafood prepared with a unique approach that bucks tradition. Chefs happily engage with diners, explaining each of the courses. Nigiri is at the heart of this meal, featuring fish aged in-house, and may include toro, uni and plump mussels. Come with high expectations and do bring liquor, if you're so inclined, as they don't have a license.
