If you want the best sushi, go to a Japanese restuarant. The preparation of and resulting presentation is considered an art and takes many years of training. IMHO, the best that I have found in the area is Moritomo in Concord. Yes, it is an hour away from the Lake. Call ahead and pick up takeout during the ride to the Lake--it's right off of I93.

I wasn't confusing Chinese cuisine with Japanese. I just know there are a limited number of sushi restaurants around the lake and didn't know if there was a "hidden" spot anywhere close by. I had no idea El Centenario was in Wolfeboro, for example, and that place gets great reviews.

And I've been to Moritomo and it was just okay in my opinion. Certainly not worth the hour drive.

I enjoyed one of the three rolls I had at Lemon Grass but that was my fault entirely. I didn't read the menu too carefully when ordering...too hungry.
I'm looking to find a new place.

I know I'm not going to find a Nobu or an O Ya here in the Lakes Region but I enjoy sushi immensely and was just seeking out advice.
