Sushi Matsumoto Yokohama

Restaurant Details

While Tokyo boasts a breed of sushi powerhouses, discovering a standout sushi spot in its waterfront city sister, Yokohama, requires a bit more exploration. Fortunately, the arrival of Sushi Matsumoto's branch ensures that city dwellers and sushi aficionados know they don’t need to settle for less. With several locations, including a Michelin-starred flagship in Akasaka, the sushi joint brings high-end Edomae sushi with a seasonal menu built on tradition to the neighborhood.

The Yokohama outpost offers a serene and inviting ambiance. Natural light streaming through traditional shoji screens bathes the space, highlighting the centrally positioned sushi counter — a signature feature of high-caliber sushi joints.

Sourcing ingredients for their Edomae sushi is a high-scrutiny task on its own. The store is keen on using tuna purchased from their special vendor, caught in local waters whenever possible. Depending on the season, diners might enjoy tuna from the waters of Aomori, Nagasaki, Hokkaido, or Wakayama. Preference is given to the upper-belly cut, closest to the head, prized for its rich flavor and luscious fat content, served atop rice seasoned with red vinegar. Before this, the meal typically opens with a rich shijimi clam soup and includes side dishes like chawanmushi and deep-fried nebuto fish (Japanese cardinalfish) caught from Onomichi.
