Union Sushi + Barbeque Bar

Editorial Review

Neighborhood sushi with a twist, or a punch, or something exuberant. The usual sushi maki menu is dramatically enhanced by a 600-degree robata grill churning out dishes like prosciutto-wrapped scallops, garlic-soy lamb chops, and skewered shrimp. An impressive sake list, cool local art, graffiti adorning the walls, and a pre-club crowd keep things sizzling almost as much as the food on your plate.
