My husband and I wanted to try food out of our convert zone and we do not regret it. The fish tasted so fresh and just melted away in the mouth. We had the Sake pairing with the meal and was worth the extra money. The Itamae was very friendly and was one of the highlights of our meal. Very happy we expensive this restaurant and would return on our next visit!

The shop was a bit difficult to find. It is an unmarked door with a small 眞 on the cloth banner.
The sushi however, was absolutely fantastic. The staff are fluent in English and attentive. the chef is friendly and explained each dish. The entire course lasted about 2.5hrs. Pricey, but absolutely worth it.
