After seeing Blackbird with my mom and Ken, we headed to 15 East for a late night dinner before heading home for the evening. We made a last minute reservation in the dining room (luckily it was still open when we left the play!)

We started with an uni flight – uni from Santa Barbara, Maine, and Russia:

My mom ordered the sashimi omakase:

The omakase comes with 10 pieces (but they were generous with their portions) and every piece met my mom’s expectation of fresh sashimi.

Ken ordered the chef’s sashimi omakase, an upgrade from my mom’s (more sashimi):

Ken’s sashimi was similar but was supposed to have 15 pieces instead of 10. It somehow cost twice as much (which wasn’t listed on the menu, a slightly annoying surprise that showed up when the bill was presented).

I ordered the shrimp tempura udon:

15 East is always a solid choice for a weekend dinner – hopefully next time they’re more forthcoming about their prices!
