Suidobashi Sushi Mitsu

Restaurant Details

Reservations are famously hard to secure at this traditional Edomae sushi restaurant for a number of reasons. First and foremost, its location — less than two minutes’ walk from Suidobashi Station — makes it supremely accessible.

But Suidobashi Sushi Mitsu also draws in crowds with its attitude towards the culinary form, which aims to make Edomae sushi as accessible as possible. Where some Edomae sushi establishments are characterized by austerity and discipline, Mitsu’s owner takes a different approach by creating a warm, welcoming environment that “even young people can enjoy”.

This most obviously takes the form of the decor, which uses light wood accents to brighten the space. The wrap-around counter seating hugs the preparation space to create an intimate and familiar atmosphere, physically shortening the distance between the sushi chef and the diner. By observing the sushi-making process, the diner also gains a greater understanding and appreciation of the form — especially the trifold seasonal philosophy that drives Japanese cuisine of hashiri, shun and nagori.

And the quality of the food served at Mitsu is top-notch. Signature menu items include medium-fatty salmon nigiri served on red-vinegar rice and mini sea urchin and salmon roe rice bowls.
