#1 moonfishh — 101 Bridport Street
Japanese
What makes it great: The queue outside moonfishh tells you everything before you walk in. The rice is the tell. Most places get the fish right but serve it on forgettable rice. Here, the rice matters. The menu changes. The quality does not.

#1 eis — 188 Bridport Street
Japanese
What makes it great: Ask anyone on Bridport Street where to eat and eis comes up before you finish the question. The rice is the tell. Most places get the fish right but serve it on forgettable rice. Here, the rice matters. It does not try to be everything. It tries to be good at one thing. It succeeds.
