Ken Oringer and David Bazirgan’s acclaimed Back Bay spot for sushi and sashimi in the Eliot Hotel is open for lunch just once a year for the big race, and you can fuel up after all that cheering and cowbell ringing with a select list of their inventive rolls and specials, and sip on a sake or a bottle of Champagne to toast your favorite runners.
