東京素食餐廳

Such a special omakase experience! The space felt incredibly private, with a clean, minimalistic aesthetic that made the whole meal feel catered towards their audience. Every detail, from the presentation to the pacing of the course, was thoughtful, and you could really tell the focus was on letting the food quality speak for themselves. Definitely one of those places you go to slow down; highly recommended!

Today I had the opportunity to sit at the beautiful Kiso cypress counter at Ginza Sushi Yu (銀座 鮨 佑). Under the guidance of Head Chef Arito Seiki—a third-generation sushi chef—the kitchen operates on flawless biological timing. This isn't just tradition; it is decades of refined operational knowledge and generational Kaizen in action. ​It isn't just about premium sourcing from Toyosu Market—though securing top-tier cuts like Yamayuki akami (lean tuna) is a massive B2B advantage—it is about execution and temperature synchronization. ​The Lunch Course Highlights: 🐟 Yamayuki-sourced Akami 🔪 Aji (horse mackerel) meticulously scored and topped with a bright shiso, ginger, and scallion blend 🍣 Flawless seasonal cuts of Sawara (Spanish mackerel), Isaki (grunt), and Hotate (scallop) 🥢 Traditional Edomae finishes including Anago (conger eel), Tamagoyaki, and Kanpyo (dried gourd) ​The shari (rice) is meticulously maintained at human skin temperature to perfectly interact with the fats of the"

It was a pleasure to dine at a one star Michelin restaurant, particularly for sushi for a vegetarian. The whole experience (service and ambience) was great. However, for the price it was disappointing, particularly the vegetarian set menu. Did not live up to expectation.

“Absolutely amazing atmosphere and truly unbelievable food. Chef is incredibly talented—the attention to detail, creativity, and flavors are unforgettable. Every bite was a treat. A must-visit experience!”

Wow, simply fantastic. Top notch service, amazing food, very friendly, explained each dish which was great as we are sushi beginners. Chef was engaging and the lady serving the drinks was a real character. Thank you guys for a great evening.

Outstanding Lunch Omakase (Saturday). By Food took care of making the reservation. My kids enjoyed the different fish and dishes or soups. Our Chef was kind and polite. The restaurant was great at accommodating my shellfish allergy while ensuring the restaurant of my party got what they chef wanted to prepare for us.

Maravillosa experiencia. Muy recomendable si deseas probar la auténtica comida japonesa. Un diez.

We had the best tempura meal we’ve ever had. Everything was prepared and seasoned perfectly. The batter was not what we would have expected and was light and complimented each course well. The fruit drinks were delicious. We enjoyed our conversation with the chef as well. As soon as we were done I told my friend who would be visiting Tokyo soon this was a must try meal. Would highly recommend for anyone.

5/5 Stars – An Unforgettable, World-Class Omakase Experience! The culinary execution was outstanding, with the horse mackerel standing out as an absolute highlight of the meal. What truly elevated the experience, however, was our sushi chef. Not only did he serve a wonderful, masterfully crafted menu, but he also took the time to carefully explain the preparation, presentation, and cultural significance of each dish in both English and Japanese. I never expected to walk away from a sushi lunch having learned so much about fish and Japanese culture. Even before stepping inside, the team went above and beyond. When I got a bit lost and bypassed the entrance, the By Food staff were incredibly kind and responsive, quickly sending photos and the Google Maps link to guide me right to the door. This was hands-down the most engaging, educational, and fun experience I have ever had at a sushi restaurant in Japan. Exceptional food, brilliant hospitality, and a stunning venue. I cannot recommend By Foods enough as I never would have known about Ginza Sushiyu!

Hidden on a small street in Ginza, this sushi experience felt intimate, warm, and surprisingly personal. Perfect for couples, friends, or even visiting alone. I had the Omakase Lunch. The chef spoke English fluently, which honestly made the experience even more special since that’s still quite rare in Japan. He had such a positive and bubbly personality that the whole dinner felt entertaining, welcoming, and educational at the same time. I learned so much about Japanese fish and sushi culture throughout the course. My favorite pieces were definitely the maguro and sea bream both melted in my mouth so softly. They also had great drink options for alcohol lovers. I almost walked past the restaurant at first since it’s tucked away on a quieter street, but thanks to Google Maps and the big front window I found this hidden gem!

Amazing experience! Best in Tokyo.

Great food and great service!
