See if you can say this five times fast: Souzai sells sushi, sashimi and sake by the seashore. Tucked in a third-floor corner of the Pier, this low-key Japanese lunch and dinner spot earns neighborhood bragging rights for a trio of reasons. One: Its killer vista of the Boardwalk and shoreline is fantastic for people- and wave-watching while you grub. Two: Its eclectic cocktail, beer and wine list sets the bar for drink selections. And three: Its menu has the sushi staples (miso soup, edamame, tempura) along with the makings to keep up with its upscale neighboring restaurants (lobster -teriyaki, rainbow roll, $199 Dom Perignon). Stay covert and sink into the cushioned chairs and low -tables. Or, sip on a Sapporo at the bar while you watch the flatscreen TV. The fourth bonus of Souzai’s prime real estate: Located a few steps away from the down escalator, it’s perfect for a quick getaway.
