Ginza Sushikohonten / 銀座 寿司幸本店

  • Tokyo : Ginza
  • Sushi / Sushi, OMAKASE

Founded in the 18th year of the Meiji era. A famous Edomae sushi restaurant that continues to create history in Ginza with designs suited to the times.

The unchanging taste of a long-established store. You can enjoy the flavors that have been passed down since its founding. The fourth generation is known as a pioneer who attempted the marriage of sushi and wine.

For sushi, we use a mixture of red vinegar and salt, which is typical of Edomae. Red vinegar is a mild vinegar made from sake lees that enhances the natural flavors of the ingredients. The color of the sushi rice combined with the brandy-colored red vinegar has a slight reddish hue, and since no sugar is used, it has a refreshing taste that doesn't get monotonous.

The "grilled shiitake mushroom nigiri," conceived by the second generation, is our most popular dish. Thick shiitake mushrooms are grilled to perfection on a grill and are then turned into nigiri sushi with a secret sauce.

Me and my wife both had an incredible dining experience. The atmosphere was cozy and traditional. Only 9 seats at the bar. Our Server was attentive, making sure my wife didn’t run out of drinks. Typically, multiple groups of customers attend at the same time, yet the Sushi Chief accommodates different groups showing up 15-20 min apart, and their difference in eating speed. The service was top-notch, with a warm and welcoming attitude. The Sushi Chief was super friendly and sincere. The sushi was cooked to perfection, with fresh and flavorful ingredients. Overall, I Highly recommend Sushi Kuma for anyone looking for authentic Japanese omakase in Fukuoka. Can’t wait to come back and try more of the menu!

This was our first time eating Itamae sushi, and we were lucky enough to find a restaurant where foreigners can make reservations. The chef is very kind and gentle. And everything from the food to the drinks is wonderful. We had a pleasant dinner. Thank you for allowing us to taste these dishes that are like works of art.

Good place to be in but to a certain extent I was surprised by the relatively short course and dining time. May need some more items. And from past reviews, seems there have been very few changes on the menu from time to time. I would suggest variations

Booked this omakase through pocket concierge, price was approx 8500 yen per person which is on the cheap for a 1 star michelin restaurant. The restaurant has around 10 counter seats, bench top nice but a little bit aged, chef was nice but didn't really speak much english. Food was very presented, very tasty and fresh. Service I gave 4/5 as chef didn't try at all to engage with us at all. We ended up going to around 9 michelin star restaurants during our trip this time, and I must say this place is the least memorable for its service. However I would still recommend to others due to the price and the food you get. PS: I don't think he likes his michelin star, he puts the michelin award plush toy in the bathroom? xD
