Japanese, Sushi

At first look, one of the most intriguing things on the menu looks like it’s a $60 choice. But look again. The multi-course “Bento Box for Two” is an unbelievable bargain. The $30 tab is for both diners. The menu is long and complex, and it includes Korean specialties, such as bimbimbap and bulgoki.

Ronin

326 W. Fourth St., Royal Oak Oakland County

Japanese, Sushi, Menu

In a stylish setting, bandana-clad sushi chefs vigorously chop and slice at the sushi bar turning out first-rate sushi and sashimi. But for the sushi-shy, there's also an interesting limited array of other Japanese standards. Ronin offers only 5 entrées ($11-$28) but with noodles, fish, fowl and beef, most gastronomic bases are covered. The chilled green-tea noodles in lemongrass oil. Of the 20-odd beers available, nine are on tap, including Kirin Ichiban. Not surprisingly, the bar is well stocked with sake, along with an intelligently selected group of 10 bottles of wine, four of which cost between $20 and $28.

The basics of Korean cooking are garlic and sesame. The bicultural selection ranges from broiled eel to tempura and sushi, spicy hot to coolly elegant.

Sharaku Sushidokoro

6159 Haggerty Rd., West Bloomfield Oakland County

(248) 960-1888

Karaoke bar, Japanese, Sushi, Staff Pick, Menu

Sharaku is the most authentic Japanese restaurant in metro Detroit, offering 25 daily-changing appetizers, including catches of the day, and a relatively short list of entrées. As in Japan, the decor is spare, blond wood, and meals are served with a minimum of pretension — just artful arrangements of the food and garnishes themselves. For sushi, you may want to branch out and try rolls of dried squash, burdock, ume shiso (green tea), natto (fermented soybeans) or orange clams.The chef’s choice “sushi deluxe” will come with 10 lovely nigiri pieces plus a roll, also with crunchy pickles of radish turned bright yellow and cucumber now purple, and a delicious opaque broth with the most delicate of scallions, still crisp. At the back of your menu, look for a long list of liquors (shochu) distilled from different grains: sweet potatoes, barley, rice, buckwheat or potatoes (the most popular). Takeout available for sushi only; party platters also available (minimum $25 order).

Asian, Japanese, Sushi

Shiro is a study in elegant contrasts, featuring a fresh fusion menu highlighting the best of European and Asian cuisines. Its intimate dining rooms were once the living quarters of a 1920s Greek Revival mansion. White linen, dark paneling, ornate cove moldings and fireplaces provide a classic setting for the adventurous menu. The list of entrees emphasizes seafood, but also includes roasted rack of lamb and filet mignon. Chef Tobin Harris says his favorite dish is probably the sesame-crusted ahi, for its contrasts in color, texture and flavor. The rare tuna filet is coated with black and white seeds and served with a pale green wasabi cream sauce, which Harris believes is unique to his restaurant. The restaurant’s lower level features a complete sushi bar, and Shiro offers a full Japanese lunch menu.

Tokyo Sushi & Grill

315 S. Center St., Royal Oak Oakland County

(248) 284-0165

Japanese, Sushi

If we added correctly, the restaurant is offering 119 items just in the “rolls” category. And the proprietor is constantly adding ideas as his in-laws fax menus from Japan. So competition, the lifeblood of capitalism, brings about such innovations as the $10 Dragon Roll: long, high, wide and bright, with different fillings, toppings and colored sauces as you eat your way from head to tail. Crab tempura, cucumber, avocado, eel, eel sauce, bright orange smelt roe and octopus each play a part in surprising and delighting the diner from one bite to the next. For those who fear the raw, there are plenty of tempura items in the rolls, or the whole roll can be deep fried, creating a crisp outside while leaving the inside in its original state — no mean trick. Hot appetizers are also done well.

Wasabi Korean & Japanese Cuisine

15 E. Kirby St., Suite E Detroit

(313) 638-1272

Japanese, Korean, Sushi, Kid Friendly, Romantic, Menu

Wasabi's bibimbab is best served in a dolsot, a heated stone bowl. Chef Seonghun Kim tops a big pile of white rice with little piles of julienned beef and vegetables, mostly cold, and a fried egg. Squeeze on the gochujang, a chili-based hot sauce, and mix it all together. It’s huge and infinitely satisfying on a cold night. The other famous-to-Americans Korean dish is bulgogi, which here is marinated rib eye. The marinade includes not only sake, ginger and various fruits but Sprite! Salmon teriyaki overdoes the sweet sauce, but beef, pork or chicken katsu are great, breaded and fried and served with a mixture of ketchup, butter, sugar, chicken broth, tempura mix and bottled tonkatsu sauce. Sushi in all the usual varieties is offered, artfully done and of excellent quality. Some entrées are served with a heap of fresh fruit, and all come with a small carrot or cucumber salad and a heartier-than-average miso soup, with seaweed. For dessert, Japanese ice cream is the best bet, especially green tea flavor.

Yotsuba Japanese Restaurant and Bar

7365 Orchard Lake Rd., West Bloomfield Oakland County

(248) 737-8282

Japanese, Sushi, Menu

The restaurant, which has a twin in Ann Arbor (2222 Hogback Rd., 734-971-5168), serves both sushi and an extensive menu of cooked foods. The standard Japanese meal includes soup, rice, pickles and usually three other dishes, each cooked a different way. Each dish is served separately and presented beautifully. You can choose from a list of 41 appetizers, eight salads and eight soups, all of them sized generously. It shouldn’t be necessary to add that the salad, like everything else, is lovely to look at. The colors complement each other as well as the tastes do. Equally wonderful on the eyes and on the tongue is gyoza (dumpling) soup, with a subtly spicy broth, thin slices of pink-edged fish paste and a poached egg. Karaoke begins after 10:30 on Fridays and Saturdays, with a selection ranging from North and South America to Asia.
