Japanese Food

 For good Jappanese food(sushi) in Pittsburgh try Sushi Too on Walnut St.
 or Sushi Two on E.Carson St.

 My (unhumble :) opinion is that KotoBuki is the best place to get sushi
 around Pittsburgh.  Their cooked food is wonderful too.

 I second the Miyako recommendation. Miyako is very nice and much more
 pleasant than the Samuri. The quality and the portions are much better
 too.

 China Palace in Sewickley has good Sushi too.   Surprising but true

 I admit to not having tried Little Tokyo, but of the rest (Kiku, Sushi
 Too/Two, Kotobuki, and one downtown on the second floor near PPG Place
 that I never remember the name of), my personal favorite by a longshot
 is Kotobuki, which is up in Allison Park in the North Hills.

 Koto Buki in the North Hills has not only a very good sushi selection,
 but a nice selection of other dishes as well.  Their sukiyaki is very
 good, as is their tempura.  They have a beef and asparagus maki
 appetizer that is outstanding.  Unfortunately, the menu is not quite as
 extensive as what was displayed at the restaurants in Nagano, and I
 don't remember them having the plastic model dishes....they use English
 menus instead. ;-)  One note, if this matters to you, they are BYOB...or
 they were the last time we were there, which has been a little while.

 KB is on Old Babcock Blvd, just off of Babcock Blvd about 2 miles north
 of UMPC-North Hills Passavant Hospital.  If you're going north on
 Babcock and get to North Park, you went just a wee bit too far.
