Seki is really a wonderful place, but I admit it's a place for regulars. Even then, getting a table there isn't easy. It's a small unique family business, not a chain restaurant in a strip mall. The "hostess" so often talked about in the reviews here is actually the owner, and she fills her tables each night exactly as she wants. She is very careful not to overbook her husband, the sushi chef-artist (for an artist he truly is) so that he can have the time to create his masterpieces for customers who truly appreciate his art. I know that in this service-obsessed society, people grow very indignant when they don't get the royal treatment. If you need the royal treatment to be happy in a restaurant, stay away from Seki. If you love sushi and want the best in Lexington, then there's a small chance that they may have an open table. Seki is a privilege, not a right.

The Seki family runs their restaurant business. Mr. Seki prepares the Sushi and does an amazing job at presentation and the price is unbeatable. However, make sure you make a reservation before showing up for dinner or you may not get to eat.

The food was pretty good. They probably have to learn how to serve people outside of their close-knit Japanese business community. When a friend of mine called, they said the wait was more than an hour. We got there ahead of time and asked if we could wait inside. It turned out the place was almost empty except for a few customers. It looked like they were expecting a large group of regulars, which did not arrive 1/2 hour after we got seated. It's just sad when you're from out of town with no idea where to eat, craving for good food, find a seemingly authentic place only to be treated like a second-class customer.
