You might want to try Sushi-Sho in Tokyo too. It is where the chef at Sushiso Masa used to apprentice. The chef at Sushi-Sho is the chef from the sushi challange at Iron Chef a few years ago. His name is Keiji Nakazawa.

tchad – i honestly have no idea – it’s a hard place to read. regardless, i think the journey here is part of the adventure (more so than the other high-end places) so i’d highly recommend doing the omakase.

Hi Chuck,
Might you know if it’s possible to forego omakase in favor of a la carte?
Thanks for the review.

Yes, this is my absolute favorite sushi ever>

The pictures do not describe the taste in the least, the taste of the fish is beyond expectations of perfection. I never knew sushi could be this good, and I made sushi for 8 years of my life professionally, some of the time in Japan. hands down the best…

Hi There:
What time do they open? Also what was the price point per person? Did they also have a big selection of beers/sake? Do they allow you to offer the staff a drink? address? Thanks…looking forward to eating there later this year.

JL – it’s possible your spouse may like it – this is unlike anything in the US. w/r/t tipping – i don’t remember – but i did whatever the guide books told me to do.

o-m-g. fantastic pics and write up. i’m salivating right now. must go there next year.

should i leave my non-raw-fish-eating spouse in the hotel room and go alone?

do you tip sushi chefs in tokyo? or is it like other asian cities where it’s a no-no?
