Restaurant Week Preview: Oishii

Restaurant Week Pick: Oishii
[1166 Washington Street; 617-482-8868; Lunch only.]

While Newton residents and sushi purists hold that Chesnut Hill’s Oishii is better (and more affordable) than its South End sister restaurant, only the Boston location offers a Restaurant Week menu this year. The mind-boggling array of high-quality dishes and premium ingredients like caviar can drive up the cost of an average trip to either Oishii, so take advantage of this opportunity to sample the wares on the cheap(ish) in this location’s minimalist SoWa setting.
