Did you know that rice has been a staple of Japanese cuisine for more than two thousand years?

It was once traded as currency, and harvesting the rice is labor intensive.

If you would like to enjoy a delicious Japanese meal, stop by one of the following restaurants where the chefs prepare steak teriyaki, freshwater eel, and so much more:

Shinsei

Just eight minutes away, Shinsei (pronounced shin-say) was established when Lynae Fearing and Tracy Rathbun joined forces to become the city's most dynamic culinary duo. Focusing on the local neighborhood was important to them, and they created a place where people could relax while enjoying delicious cuisine. In the kitchen, Executive Chef Carlos Capistran creates artful presentations, and sushi choices include Japanese snapper, sea urchin, and smoked salmon.
