    Could get a reservation for dinner so we decide to drop by for lunch. Sushi sho is an Tokyo institution. Specialized in the craft of perfectly aging their fish. Great value for their Barr’s Chirashi Bowl for lunch, do drop by here early as the bowl as limited for the day. Huge chunks of perfectly marinated fish, probably 10 different varieties in my bowl. Topped over a fragrant umami rich rice. Can’t t ally beat this at ¥2000. Lunch is only available on Mondays, Wednesday and Friday. And very limited bowls so be sure to head down early. They only serve Barra chirashi for lunch so there’s no need to even order. Just show up and enjoy perfection in a bowl.

    I was fortunate to try the omakase, and it was one of the best meals I've ever had! :O Nakazawa Sensei was there. Their Chirashi is also quite good. It's only available MWF.

    On the first of each month reservations of the following month is released. My friend helped call early November but lunch dine-in was already fully booked for a Wed late November. Nevertheless, we secured a chirashi takeout which of course was very delicious.

    Discrimination against foreigners. Arrived way before closing, with guests inside the shop, and we were told that it is closed. Avoid at all cost

    Went there for the 2k lunch. Good but nothing outstanding from service to food. Taste is mild from raw fish, rice to soup. Like Kansai style. Tea is piping hot and taste is very mild too which is no good. They make reservation in 30 minutes slot. Good enough in a fast food mood lunch. Considering to book for dinner to see if experience is better.

    You know, all my life I was waiting to actually try sushi from a real chef from Tokyo. I couldn't have imagined the difference between sushis in Tokyo and in North America or even Europe. We picked sushi-sho because it was one of the top rated by tokyo people and also because the concierge of our hotel recommended it. It was simply amazing. A very small shop, lost in a building. The chef and his chef greeted us when we arrived. and, we assumed, since we were white, we sat with the sous chef that had a very good english (not so sure about the main chef). What a delight! We had around 30 different kind of sushis, sashimis, seafood or specialties and it was simply incredible. The chef looked at us every time we had a bit, to make sure we were happy. The sake was amazing and surprisingly, very cheap. I would definitely go again. Thanks to the amazing staff!

    I had the good fortune of lucking into a dinner slot without an advanced reservation. The Omakase course was fantastic, consisting of 20-30 individual, unique bites, each a work of art. I highly recommend Sushi-sho, although you will need advanced reservations and should plan to be there for around 2 hours.

    Everything was just perfect. 32 kinds of seasonal fish and vegetables in the chirashi don. Very friendly team serving and preparing too.

    Amazing experience they really take their time and explain everything to you in detail from how to eat each individual pieces to why they prepare the sushi in the way that they do. i would avoid the bonito and rock shrimp though.

    Delicious, inventive and about as fun as possible for a refined sushi dinner in Tokyo. Nakazawa-san is very friendly, and we suspect that he's just getting noticed (so go now before his prices double!!!)

    They squeezed us in for a chirashi bowl and it was incredible, an entire tasting menu in a single course, everything was fresh and delicious!
