1740 Argyle StBest sushi just a 5 minute walk away. It's a tiny place with a large menu. Your meal often comes with a complimentary sushi plate so you'll have some to take home for lunch the next day. The nightly Happy Hour eats from 9pm until close are also a great bargain... but you may have to line up to get in.
