The Scene
A couple of cool Japanimation prints hang on the mango and tangerine walls of this cute little Lakeview nook, where a dozen people can squeeze in at a few tables and upholstered chairs at the sushi bar. It's a comfortable, atmospheric space, but takeout is a better option; with just one chef behind the counter filling all orders, sit-down service tends to lag.

The Food
Blossom's menu of sushi standards offers good, fresh Japanese fare at very reasonable prices: Most nigiri are $1.50 per piece, with a wide selection of maki for less than $5. There's edamame and miso soup to start, but it's worth trying ''mussel on the shore''--an intriguing, savory appetizer of baked, chopped mussels mixed with crabstick and Japanese mayo served on the half shell. Spicy tuna roll has just the right kick, though the chef's liberal use of sweet unagi sauce weighs down otherwise tasty spider and caterpillar maki. For dessert, go for green tea ice cream or a selection of bubble teas (mango, green tea, plum).
