If you’ve ever bought sushi rolls at a grocery store, Kabuto may not be the place for you. In fact, this traditional edomae sushi house takes care to point out what it does not serve: namely, maki rolls and hako sushi. Instead, you’ll get sensational nigiri sushi and sashimi, expertly prepared with fish flown in from Japan and around the world. The subtle, pristine flavors and practically religious execution will appeal to a refined palate, but they don’t come cheap. Once you’ve tried Kabuto, however, you may have a tough time enjoying a plain old California roll
