"If you get a seat at the sushi bar in front of Shiro, don't be shy—this is one place where ordering omakase (chef's choice) is a must."

"Fans of straightforward, traditional sushi flock to Shiro's. If the space is rather plain, the mood is usually lively, and from the first bite, the food commands your undivided attention."
