Imayoshi
Restaurant in Tokyo
I had the full course omakase, and I am absolutely blown away by the quality and service. I love sushi, and this is the best and most authentic sushi I have ever tried. Seeing Chef Imai make the food in front of you, you could really tell how much time he has put into his practice, expertly and elegantly making each piece. Mr Imai was incredibly informative and warm, and so were the other workers. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very welcoming. The price certainly meets its expectations, and I would highly recommend this experience!

In rare cases, the restaurant is so exclusive that an introduction is required from one of their patrons. If you want a hassle-free way to reserve a sushi restaurant in Japan, one of the best options is to make a reservation using an online service. There are a few online options that help foreign travelers to make a reservation, such as platforms like byFood, which offers unparalleled support in making reservations in Japan. On byFood, you can use filters to narrow down restaurants based on location, price range, dietary restrictions, and more. You can easily make a reservation by entering your details on the restaurant page. ByFood will contact the restaurant on your behalf and send you an email telling you if your reservation has been confirmed or not.
Is a reservation required for sushi restaurants in Japan?
This depends on the type of sushi restaurant. Some casual sushi restaurants or conveyor belt sushi restaurants do not require a reservation, or in some cases do not allow it. Other sushi restaurants in Japan like those that offer high-end omakase sushi services or Michelin-starred restaurants always require a reservation.
What is the average cost of a meal at sushi restaurants in Japan?
Expect to pay a minimum of 2000 yen for quality sushi in Japan, however it depends on the restaurant. Some omakase sushi restaurants start at 5000 to 10,000 yen per person, while other sushi restaurants in Japan, like at conveyor belt sushi restaurants, are based on how many plates you eat, which are priced differently depending on the establishment and ingredients.
