-West 7th-
High quality sushi, sashimi, and handrolls. Doesn't take reservations, you have to go and put your name in and they will text you when your seats are ready. You can go to one of the many bars close by for a drink while you wait. Would not recommend trying to go with more than 2 people unless you have a lot of time to wait.
