Customer Reviews
I dont get all these negative comments, like “Strong perfume was a problem”, Not proper dress code was a problem etc…most of Americans and some European people just dont get what means following “Restaurant s rules”!!! They get used to pass rules and restaurants just let them go in! Well, not in Japan! And no pics rules is really hugee issue for so many people,really? You go there to enjoy food, it s not a photo session!! Sushi was excellent,very expansive, but super high-end quality and the rice was like a butter. And fatty tuna die for.
Visited on Oct 12, 2024, booking was thru the hotel concierge. All the sushi are very good and we will definitely visit again if we can secure seats there. A few things to note: 1. The omakase course we had have 19pcs of sushi + dessert; 2. After finished the last piece, the assistant asked us if we'd like to eat more, and we both ordered 1 extra piece, so total 20pcs was eaten; 3. From start of the first piece to leaving the restaurant, the duration was about 45mins, with 30mins on the sushi bar, and 15mins at the dessert table; 4. The sushi was served, most of the time, right after the previous piece was eaten, but since each piece was not really big, we finished the whole course easily; 5. We didn't talked to the Chef at all (except greeting him at the being). The assistants there can speak very good English, they can answer all the needs; 6. Strongly suggest to visit their website before visiting to have a better understanding of the Sushi tradition.
Overall quality of food was 5/5 but dining experience 3/5. Was able to get reservation a month in advance through concierge from our hotel in Tokyo. Pace of eating was fast as mentioned in other reviews but not overwhelming. Did not feel taste of vinegar was strong. Enjoyed watching the consistency of technique mastered but overall environment was too tense. Sat there with my wife eating but did not feel comfortable having a conversation while eating as we were focused on eating on pace and properly. Food did taste amazing and very good quality.
The greatest sushi meal I have ever had. A serene, stunning space, and the service bordered on psychic. We felt incredibly honoured to eat here.
