Tatami room?

[lobstaman]

Looking for a sushi place with fresh fish that has a tatami room. (You know, those private rooms with the low table - ideally with a foot well.) We're a group of 7 who live in JP, Brookline, and Newton; so we're looking for Downtown or just outside. I know of Fugakyu.... are there any other options (perhaps slightly less expensive) that anyone can recommend?

Ginza has a tatami room and meets your downtown location and price point. It's OK but not the best for sushi.

Not the best for fried food (ie tempura) either--it tends to squirt not-very-fresh oil when you bite into it. UGH. The grilled fish tends to be passable.

too bad you can't make it out to Oga's in Natick, exactly what you are looking for

Kaya in Porter Square is a Korean BBQ restaurant that also has Sushi. Not exactly the highest quality Korean or Japanese, but passable and they have a very nice private room with a low table and foot well.

I haven't been to Kaya (Cambridge) in a while but it's very good. There also used to be one in Brookline. I never encountered any problems like below.

I meant for yakiniku bbq not for sushi. However, the OP did say sushi so my bad...

I don't think their Back Bay outpost is there anymore, but if it is similar to the quality in the Back Bay one, I'd say skip Kaya - blech. The sushi was just edible, but not good.
