This popular little sushi joint tends to get packed for lunch and dinner, so it's best to get here early if you don't feel like standing. "Sushi Hana offers New York's Upper East Side both traditional and contemporary Japanese cuisine. Sake Hana is the first sushi/sake lounge on the upper eastside of it's kind". Here, sushi is the stuff of dreams, but their Yaki soba and Okinawa Udon are worth sampling as well. Those not in the mood for raw fish will want to check out the Teriyaki or Tempura menus – rumor has it that the Seared Tuna Shichimi with vegetables is as good as it sounds. TRAIN: 6 to 77th St
