Restaurant Details

Now located in the sophisticated Jingumae district, just a short walk from Harajuku and Omotesando in Shibuya, Sushi Yukinari offers an intimate 13-seat omakase experience by Chef Kosei Baba, blending refined craftsmanship with the warmth of traditional Edomae sushi. The restaurant features a seven-seat counter and a six-seat private table area, allowing guests to enjoy both the energy of the chef’s performance and a more relaxed dining atmosphere.

Amidst the quiet elegance of this stylish neighbourhood, away from the city’s bustle, one of Tokyo’s most exclusive sushi counters awaits discerning diners.

Tucked within the acclaimed Sushi Hajime, Sushi Yukinari is the pride and joy of Chef Baba. Even by high-end sushi standards, Yukinari’s atmosphere is remarkably personal — every movement is deliberate, every detail precise.

Chef Baba sources premium tuna from Yamawa, the famed Toyosu Market wholesaler, alongside fresh seasonal seafood and delicately aged shellfish, ensuring every ingredient is served at its absolute peak. His sushi rice, made with Aizu-grown Koshihikari from his home prefecture of Fukushima and an original red vinegar crafted exclusively for the restaurant by Ichiume in Ehime, creates a perfect harmony of flavour and depth — the true essence of Sushi Yukinari.

Signature dishes include abalone in liver sauce, simmered for half a day in sake and pure water for a velvety texture, and aged tuna, carefully matured in-house to enhance umami.

Chef Baba’s effortless hospitality reflects his background in a ryokan family. After training at Shimotakaido Asahi Sohonten, he honed his sushi craft at Sushi Ginza Onodera, Sushi Tokyo 81, and Sushi Hajime, before founding Sushi Yukinari in 2023 — now reborn in Jingumae, Harajuku–Shibuya, as a sanctuary of elegance, sincerity, and culinary mastery.
