Tucked down an alleyway off Wisconsin Ave, Two Nine runs a daytime chirashi cafe with a kaiseki-inspired omakase counter upstairs. Chef Zach Ramos sources much of the seafood straight from Toyosu Market in Tokyo, and the nigiri menu changes daily. Ring the bell — they'll walk you up.

What to Order
Go with the pre-set Kaiseki Omakase. It's a full course built around multiple pieces of nigiri and sashimi, each one packed with flavor and paced out course by course rather than dropped on one plate at once — the kind of format that lets each fish actually stand on its own.
The Verdict
5 out of 5 gems — a must-try. Between the daily fish rotation, the chef's sourcing, and the omakase experience itself, Two Nine earns the top rating without question.
Ring the bell — they'll walk you up.
