Went to Meiji, for the second time, Saturday. Wow, what great food. Among the better meals I've had in the last while, we savored every bite, lingering for a couple of hours.
The sushi chef, Eddie Lao, came and introduced himself, and offered to custom make a cucumber-wrapped maki next time (we had a Salmon-mango-cilantro-avacodo maki both times). Hamachi sashimi was also delicious, as was a cucumber-wrapped maki called Kani Kyu (contained King Crab, and various vegetables).
Highly recommended. Currently BYOB (without corkage, but they await their liquor license); we brought a bottle of sake from home (via Mitsuwa), our waitress brought us a chiller. Mmmmmm, I'm hungry just thinking of it.
edit
Meiji no longer BYOB though.
