Frommer's Very Highly Recommended
Don't be put off by the fact that this restaurant is located in a shopping mall. For one thing, it's in Lenox Square,
the shopping mall of the Southeast. And what better finish to a shopping spree than a martini and a steak, or sushi? If you're going to indulge, you might as well go all the way. And this is an extremely indulgent place -- a suave, hip atmosphere with food to match. It's a steakhouse, but it's bright and contemporary rather than dark and clubby. Do start with a martini. The French say hard liquor spoils the meal, but hey, this isn't France -- and several specialty martinis are available. The sushi is the freshest you can get, the steaks are sublime and huge, and the seafood is stylish. At lunch, you'll find lighter entrees, sandwiches, and a divine lobster salad with citrus vinaigrette (no mayo). Every Friday at happy hour, from 5 to 7pm, there's free sushi and live jazz in the atrium just outside the restaurant. Sundays feature dollar sushi and hot sake from 4 to 9pm.
