Frommer's Very Highly Recommended

Romantic and rustic-chic are adjectives not usually associated with Japanese restaurants but Kabuki is an exception. The candlelit dining room is furnished with lovely dark wood, and the exposed brick walls are adorned with tasteful artwork. Mellow music is on hand in the evenings. For those who just want to nibble there's a large menu of cold and hot appetizers such as sautéed shitake or shimeji mushrooms, deep-fried prawn, and an assortment of grilled skewers with meat, seafood, or vegetables. Main courses include a large variety of sushi and sashimi combos, tempuras, yakisoba noodles, and grilled meats. Interesting dessert options include the flambéed mango and banana or tempura ice cream, a wonderful sensation of a hot, crunchy crust and a soft, cold, creamy center.
