I ordered a sashimi and sushi set lunch, which comes with a chef's selection of sashimi, my choice of two hand rolls, a salad, and miso soup. I don't have a photo of the miso soup, but it was very delicious, not powdery like many other restaurant miso soups I've had. The salad is far better than expected, as many Japanese restaurants offer iceberg lettuce while Inatei's version was, like, a real salad:

The chef's choice sashimi was deliciously satisfying. Unfortunately, I took this photo from the wrong angle, so you'll have to imagine a couple of pieces of mackerel on the other side of the salmon, tuna, and octopus:

As part of my lunch set I also had a choice of two hand rolls. I picked salmon and eel (the eel costs a little extra - but I love eel!):

In addition, I also ordered the uni nigiri sushi a la carte, which comes with two pieces:

As part of his meal, my brother order a spider roll to share:

We ended our meal with a choice of ice cream on the house. My pick was sesame - yum!

This meal was a much needed sushi fix and the food was delicious. The offerings at Inatei are pretty standard for Japanese restaurants, but while the prices at Inatei are slightly higher than the other sushi restaurants in the neighborhood, its better quality makes it well worth the price.
