The vibrant, artistic world within AREA15 continues to evolve in new and exciting ways. Its newest restaurant, Kaia Handroll, will have you nudging your way through the crowd to make sure you snag the next stool to get a taste of some of the best sushi rolls in town.
The brightly colored, brightly lit sushi bar is set up in such a way that socializing is practically mandatory. As you make your decision between a starter of Japanese Caesar salad or a Kaia poke stack, you’ll be talking to those around you in no time—especially once you get started on your choice of sake, beer or spirit.
The handroll selection here features blue crab, scallop, salmon, yellowtail, spicy tuna, toro, tuna poke, kanpachi, lobster truffle and vegetable. You can opt for the usual duo of soy sauce and wasabi, but Kaia also offers two signature sauces in case you want something a bit different.
All rolls are served cylinder-shaped and fresh from the kitchen—if you opt for one of the pre-set menus (a chance to really explore the menu), each roll will be brought out individually. We personally recommend the four-roll set of blue crab, scallop, yellowtail and spicy tuna. Top everything off with Japanese cheesecake (although the mochi is a strong contender, also).
