After visiting Japan last year, many a folk asked if I had been to Ginko. I had not, and frankly, I found it really hard to believe there could a sushi restaurant worthy of fangirling in Cleveland. No offense meant to Cleveland, it's just not what you think of when you think of sushi. Pierogi, yes. Sushi, no. On my first visit, and every subsequent visit after, I was put in my place. Ginko really is that good. And since I don't have the fundage to visit Tokyo on a regular basis, it satisfies my sushi loving soul in between visits.
The itamae behind the sushi counter are highly skilled and have my utmost respect. I could just watch them make the sushi for hours. If it's your first visit, I highly recommend selecting the omakase and letting these skilled chefs craft your dinner with the freshest sushi of the day.
Recommendations include (well, everything, but especially) the Uni Ikura Kani (Sea Urchin, Salmon Roe, Crabmeat) and Kamo/Foie/Ume (Duck, Foie, salted plum), and of course, the otoro (usually only served with the omakase, I believe).
