    Had the Ryu Omakase lunch and it was very very good! The sashimi was super fresh and the sushi were incredible too. The dishes were simple but executed to perfection. Do come quite hungry as the set is quite filling! Highly recommended and I will be back again.

    Had a splendid birthday celebration here in Hiryu. Outstanding quality food and personable service (special thanks to the chefs and Vincent). I tried the Ryu Omakase ($188++), while hubs got the ala carte dishes, deets in the pics. Trust me, the whole experience is worth every dollar here. Highly recommended 👍

    A really good place to amp up the typical Omakase experience. Everything and every dish is so decadent. Shavings of truffle and gold dust, Uni everywhere. The fish was very fresh as well. That rice bento box was filled with every possible indulgence. It was only after that I found out the place is run by a local chef. I would say that the creations were progressive and modern. The chef is not bashful when using expensive ingredients. Of course the meal is not gonna be cheap so hold on to your wallets.

    First time here and ordered the Hiryu omakase. Definitely of good standard. Started off with shirako which is very creamy and not fishy at all. A lot of dishes with uni, caviar and gold flakes. Most of the sushi had very rich and umami taste. Was especially impressed with their chutoro sushi which literally melts in the mouth. One of my favourite is that toro+uni on toast and the flounder (the sauce on top complements extremely well). I had the wagyu rice as mains which has a very rich taste with uni and more foie gras while the abalone is very well prepared. I would however point out that in the pursuit of flavour and rich ingredients, some of the natural taste of the fish and seafood was covered or overpowered - a bit of a shame on that point. All in all, recommend to come at least once to try. Great service, keep it up. 👍

    Starting with the most positive aspects, the service we experienced was top notch and the plating/presentation was quite pretty. They have innovative creations and combinations which are a visual treat. Not all the courses were stellar though. There were a few standouts, like the grilled fish, tuna belly and the wagyu. Seating is a little bit tight but just comfortable enough. Might not be the place to go for very traditional style sushi, where the natural taste of the fish/seafood is paramount, but definitely worth a try.

    The food was very fresh and delicious. Great service from the chefs and staff. Most of them were bilingual. Ryan was very approachable and patient in explaining to us about the ingredients used and all our queries. Food and ingredient gets flown in 4x a week! from Japan to ensure freshness. However, the time taken to finish the omakase was a little tad longer than usual. This may be due to the larger lunch crowd for today. Will definitely return

    The sushi rice (using red vinegar) In my opinion was pretty good. The neta used for sushi were pretty good as well. However it's the usual suspects such as prawn, scallop, engawa which are not exactly premium ingredients. Would have perfect if more shiromi fish was used. I would say it's pricey $188++ for the omakase offering but execution was pretty good.

    Good food and service. Pricey but you pay for the quality of food though the bathroom was a bit dingy and the paper towel dispenser didn't work. The premium don was tasty but felt there was a bit too much truffle oil in the dish.

    They might want to extend the duration for each service. We felt rushed, which was something we weren't expecting since we're celebrating an occasion and ordered a bottle of sake as well. Otherwise food and service were great!

    Hiryu becomes one of my absolute favourite restaurants after an omakase meal here. One of the sashimi served is toast laden with lots of uni and negitoro, a heapful of caviar and huge slice of truffle. This sashimi really encapsulates what Hiryu is all about: presenting the super fresh best ingredients in the best combination for one's indulgence. The uni is so creamy and oh-my-oh-so-sweet, with none of the bitterness that is present in some uni. Negitoro, aka mashed tuna belly, is also very rich and creamy. The woody aroma of truffle adds a layer of dimension to the taste profile. The caviar is pops of intense umami goodness that works with the uni and negitoro to bring one to umami heaven. The toast makes for a nice neutral base to hold all these luxurious treasures of the sea and woods while introducing a nice crunch to the overall texture. Akagai is a very interesting a kind of clam. The moment the chef hits it, the clam changes shape, like it is coming to life. Quite a feast for the eyes, and it is sure a feast for the mouth too since this sashimi is very crunchy in texture and has a briny sweetness. More umami heaven comes with the serving of the super, super fresh uni sushi. Ama Ebi is so sweet and fresh, and extra umami added with the shrimp roe paste. A bit of aburi for dimension in the taste. Yes, more umami heaven! Savouring sushi with a thick generous slice of otoro, topped with negitoro and a mould of caviar, plus some gold flakes is pure indulgence. So rich in texture and flavour. Umami bliss. Last sushi of the day is Hotate topped with Foie Gras with Uni. Wow, this is so decadently good. And rich, buttery foie gras actually goes very well with sushi. The scallop is vey sweet and this sweetness is surprisingly able to shine through the intensity of foie gras and uni. I'm now at the realm beyond umami heaven. Lots of thinly sliced Iberico Pork with its coveted nutty flavours, lots of truffle slices, lots of foie gras, lots of uni and lots of salmon roe decked on top of a thin layer of sushi rice. Bursting with flavours, this is a gourmet dream, in Japanese style, come true. The decor of the place is of minimalist Zen influence, great for enjoying omakase in a peaceful environment. The service staffs are very friendly and attentive, being quick to response to requests and sometimes even respond before I call for them. The chefs are very friendly too, and I appreciate their skills in preparing the sashimi and sushi since the non-otoro fishes all have almost this melt-in-your-mouth texture, and the slices are thick enough to enjoy the flavours but thin enough to finish in one mouthful. And the sushi rice is not sticky but well-moulded to stick together until the point of biting into it. While the price of the omakase here is steep, I feel it is totally worth it, given that so many luxurious ingredients are used in the dishes. For that gastronomic indulgence, this place is definitely one of the top choices.

    Very nice omakase in Singapore. The chefs came to our company to do omakase. They are really professional. The important thing is the omakase food is really nice and a must-try. I have already tried it a few times, also at their restaurant. Most of my colleagues and friends said it’s a recommended omakase.

    Good service and pretty nice place. Food wise, go for it IF you love uni/wagyu/caviar. Fresh ingredients too. Otherwise, for my own palate it was overloaded with those rich flavours to the point that it got rather jelat. Gold flakes were particularly pointless. Not enough fish typical of an omakase too - definitely not for those who want typical edomae style omakase. Also in my opinion not really bang for buck - veers over expensive compared to other omakases (this dinner set cost 400 plus).

    Food was not great but not bad either. Sashimis were tasty but desserts did not live up to my expectations.

    Food was good however service could be improved. Visited the restaurant a few months ago and really liked the food, hence decided to go back again to try the food. Noticed that the portion was a looking a little different this time (picture attached) - of which the chef replied sarcastically that it was due to “increased rent”

    Omakase was good, it was a celebration of my best friend. The special sushi is perfect as always!

    My second visit to this restaurant. Super fresh seafood! Came here for lunch and it never disappoint. Wife pick the abalone main course while I had the wagyu beef. A little pricey for regular lunch date but we totally enjoyed this little midweek luxury.

    I had alacarte dinner. I chose the angel hair main dish. It had truffle, caviar, urchin and scallop. I was unable to finish the dish as it was too rich. I wish to suggest that the menu be reviewed so that the main dish not be overloaded with a lot of the 4 main ingredients. Perhaps a smaller portion with an accompanying side dish.

    Nice food and lovely chef, bit pricy though.

    High quality ingredients, friendly and attentive staff. Gold leaf is a bit flashy for my tastes but if I'm only complaining about that, that's a good thing.
