Tokyo 餐廳

I am so pleased to write about my great experience at Sushi Ginza Onodera. While I am not usually a seafood person (shellfish and similar), I absolutely love fish. Being from Australia, I like Sushi but know that our "Maki Rolls" are not really comparable to the normal nigiri in Japan. With that in mind, I really wanted the full Omakase experience. That way I knew I was going to have a top quality sushi without the pressure or nerves of choosing my own. I booked the "Kaze" menu and loved every single bite. The staff were helpful and kind, making my experience perfect. Even the seafood I would usually shy away from was a tasteful experience. Concluding this review, I would definitely recommend this experience and booking through byFood, whose booking was very helpful and easy. I would also like to give an extra recommendation to their YouTube channel which really helped me plan my time in Japan (special mention to Shizuka Anderson).

We arrived at 5:55 and walked back and forth wondering if we had the right place. The kind noodle shop next door confirmed it. Then at exactly 6:00, the door opened and the Sushi Shin sign came out. Very Japan. Apparently five minutes early was our mistake. 😂 The omakase started with 5–8 appetizers before about 10 pieces of nigiri, so come hungry. The variety of seafood was impressive, from delicate sea bream and monkfish to sweet hairy crab and scallop. Then came two different types of toro, both beautifully rich and melt-in-your-mouth, and the uni was divine: creamy, sweet, briny perfection. Our family tried almost everything Chef offered except the gizzard. Even fish that normally aren’t the kids’ favorites, especially monkfish and sea bream, were prepared so well they happily ate them. No photos allowed, which made us concentrate on the food instead of documenting it. And after all those courses, we waited for the customary fruit dessert…which never came. 😂 Apparently the uni and toro were our dessert. Five stars. Trust the address, trust the chef, and don’t worry if the restaurant doesn’t appear to exist until exactly 6:00.

Best experience & meal in our Japan trip!!

Amazing dining experience. All of omakase courses were meticulously put together and all the fish was soft and buttery. A very enjoyable and tasty evening.

Service was great, food was delicious and satisfying!

Not my first visit because once is not enough. The chef is kind and entertaining.The sushi is memorably delicious.

I feel nostalgic when entering this restaurant with the aroma of the wood fire. Service was amazing and the food was exquisite

Muy rico. Un poco rápido para mi gusto.

This is our second time dinning at Makiyaki Ginza and what another great evening. Food is fantastic and environment is amazing. The chef and his team are so welcoming and watching them prepare each dish is truly a treat. I would highly recommend this restaurant to family and friends.

A sleek, newly opened omakase spot in Shinjuku that's especially welcoming to international diners. The chef speaks English and guides you through the meal with ease, offering excellent sake pairings along the way. Standout dish: crispy rice topped with uni. A high-quality, approachable omakase experience that doesn't sacrifice authenticity.

Every detail was beautiful the food and service was amazing.

Fantastic place, private Seat. And very good food.
