We arrived late and very flustered because the address provided took us to a different location on Google maps and even when we arrived we struggled to find the right place. However, the staff were so kind and welcoming, and we settled down and had the most wonderful experience. We would highly recommend this restaurant for value for money, quality of food, great energy and skilled chefs.

I really enjoyed the wine pairing selection, which beautifully combined Japanese sake with imported wines, a perfect match for the 22-course presentation. The ingredients were authentic, fresh, and thoughtfully curated to reflect the best of the season. What impressed me even more was the staff’s ability to communicate fluently in both English and Mandarin, allowing us to fully appreciate the story and concept behind each dish. Highly recommended for those who enjoy interacting with the staff and want to truly understand the narrative behind a fine dining experience.

Located in one of the most convenient areas of downtown Tokyo, it’s surprising to find a middle-premium dining spot with such a refined atmosphere quietly nestled in this lively neighborhood. The restaurant features only counter seating, accommodating just 7–8 guests at a time. This limited seating creates an intimate and relaxed setting, ideal for enjoying a quiet meal or engaging in easy conversation. The staff are friendly and attentive, and most can communicate in English, which adds to the welcoming and comfortable experience. The course menu is thoughtfully curated and comes with drink pairings, including both wine and sake. Personally, I found the sake selections to be the standout, each one complemented the sushi and seafood courses beautifully, enhancing the depth and nuance of the flavors. The wines, on the other hand, tended to be a bit too light for my palate. A more adventurous or bold wine pairing could elevate the overall experience even further. Overall, it was a thoroughly satisfying dining experience. The balance of quality, atmosphere, and attentive service makes this spot a great choice for both casual evenings and special occasions.

How can I reserve a sushi restaurant in Tokyo

Sushi restaurants in Tokyo usually take reservations over the phone, but this, of course, depends on the sushi restaurant. However, phone reservations can be difficult if you do not speak Japanese. The best option to reserve sushi restaurants in Tokyo is to use an online reservation service. Platforms like byFood help foreign travelers to make reservations at restaurants. You can easily use byFood to filter for the type of Tokyo sushi restaurant you would like to eat at, and in which area of Tokyo. This makes it easy to narrow down sushi restaurant options and make a reservation. Just add in your details to the sushi restaurant page, and byFood will submit a reservation request on your behalf. When the reservation is successful, you will receive a confirmation email. Otherwise, you will receive a rejection email.

Is a reservation required for all sushi restaurants in Tokyo?

Not all sushi restaurants in Tokyo require a reservation, however some do. This depends on the sushi restaurant of course, but usually it is not necessary for casual sushi restaurants, like sushiya at markets and conveyor belt sushi restaurants. If you want to try high-end sushi, reserving a Tokyo sushi restaurant is almost essential, and definitely recommended as they are very popular. Some sushi restaurants in Tokyo are often reserved many months in advance.

What is the average cost of sushi lunch or dinner in Tokyo?

The cost of sushi in Tokyo varies based on the type and restaurant. At conveyor belt sushi spots, where you pay per plate, the total depends on what you choose. At mid-range sushi restaurants, expect to pay around ¥3,000 for a set meal, sushi bowl, or several plates from a sushi train. Upscale sushi dining starts at ¥5,000 per person, but prices can go much higher for premium experiences.
