Itamae Sushi Akasaka Misuji St - 渋谷

Amazing quality, presentation and taste. Can't beat it. A local friend took us there. I can say that I had best sushi in Tokyo. However, I like American style sushi with fancy rolls over this authentic one.

Very easy to find, right next to the train station. The tuna, scallops and Tai quality were pretty good. The ale carte serving of uni was great however the Uni used in many other dishes tasted very different and with a woody flavour. It 's a bit of a fun gimmicky shop good for tourists. Not cheap and did not feel the quality justified the price.

This is the best sushi I have ever had. When you go you must get the tuna nigiri. I never knew raw fish can melt in your mouth and be so rich. Also tried more complex sushi such as the spicy tuna and the California roll. The light mellow flavors of the California roll made me feel like my mouth was in a five star spa being massaged, and the wasabi with the salmon put me into a boxing ring. I would rate 6/5 stars but that is not an option. Beautiful food.

Some of the best sushi I have had in Japan. A little pricey, but worth it! They primarily only have sets of sushi running around 2800 yen.

It’s open till late but I think it mostly caters to tourists so the quality isn’t as great. I’ve had better sushi in Taiwan, San francisco and Oakland. I think it’s probably great to people who aren’t living in states with a larger Asian population or that has a huge food culture. Maybe the other places that close earlier have better sushi? It wasn’t terrible, just a bit underwhelming especially for the price.
