    We came in around 9 pm and the elderly owners were so cute. They saw we had a baby and told us to just bring the whole stroller in without folding it. They tried their best and we did too to communicate despite our Japanese not being sufficient. The food was good! We got the 4500 yen special sushi set and I found it to be fresh and delicious. The miso soup also has tiny clams in it which was nice. Overall, the atmosphere was quaint and we really enjoyed our experience here.

    This sushi place has such a cozy environment which is ran by an elderly couple. They have been serving since 1971 but you can still taste the freshness and authenticity of their sushi. The husband, 80 yrs old, makes the sushi while the wife, 79 yrs old, serves the customers. The couple were very friendly and welcoming. The husband talks a little bit of English so we were able to communicate with each other. Their menu only give options A, B, C or SP (special). We ordered the special set: ¥4 500 and it gives you a bit of everything such as salmon, shrimp, sea urchin, and etc. The sushi was delicious! The wasabi added more flavour! If you want to try a local restaurant in Yokohama City, I recommended to check out Saburo Sushi and experience it yourself! :) (side note: no rush and enjoy the food!)

    気取らない雰囲気の寿司屋。店内は広くないので、4人以上で行くなら予約が必要だと思う。 酢飯の味付けは濃いめ。ネタは新鮮。好みの味だ。気さくな年配のご夫婦が経営しており、軽快な会話も楽しい。特上の握りが10貫で4500円と、価格はとてもリーズナブル。 地元にこういう寿司屋があると嬉しい。コマログ4.5。

    (Translated by Google) Sushi held by a craftsman who will turn 80 in 2022. The, Edomae sushi. I enjoyed the lunch while watching the enka and chatting. At the end, it's a cozy shop that even brews coffee. (Original) 2022年で80歳になる職人さんが握る鮨。ザ、江戸前鮨。演歌見ながら、おしゃべりしながら食べるランチは、とっても楽しかったです。最後にコーヒーまで淹れてくれて、アットホームなお店。

    クチコミ評価が高かったので行きました。御年81歳の大将が奥さんと二人三脚で営んでました。とてもそんな歳には見えず、元気で若々しく、話も愉快でした。もともと中華街で店を構えていたそうです 興味深い話ばかりでしたし、寿司も美味しかったから、また行きたいですね

    Good sushi place. They have a range of price points from ¥1500 to ¥4500 for a sushi set. There aren’t too many seats but we didn’t have to wait when we came for dinner. It is cash only and run by an older couple since 1971. Sushi is served with green tea and miso soup.

    今日のランチは元町の「三郎寿司」さんで、『おまかせ』(3800円)を。 先週が私の誕生日、来週が我妻の誕生日なので間を取って今週末にしました。あと、夜だと寒くて心折れそうなのでランチ利用でw。 13:00ぐらいの来店で(もちろん予約して)、先客1名でしたが、そのあとであれよあれよという間に満席になり。5〜6人ぐらいお断りしていたので、予約して来るのがよろしいかと。ちなみに海外からのお客さんも多かったです。 最近流行りのSNS映えしそうなお寿司ではなく、オーセンティック的なお寿司で。でもこーゆーほうが安心します。 どれもはずれのない美味しさで。穴子と中トロがおすすめ、でしょうか? ただ、個人的にはもう少しご飯がかためだとうれしいのですが。このへんは好みの問題でしょうけど。 最後に珈琲もサービスでいただけました。『おまかせ』だけの特権かもしれませんが(未確認)。 実はこのあとで呑みに行こうかと計画していましたが、お腹いっぱいで断念しました。なので量的にも満足、でした。 なによりもお店の大将と女将さんがとてもキュート。また来よう。

    This was a great experience. Which as a European one often only sees on TV. The quality of the sushi is probably the best I enjoyed until now. Although English might be a limitation choosing from the menu for S, A, B or C should be possible for everyone.

    (Translated by Google) A sushi restaurant located in Motomachi, going up a hill. The atmosphere is homey, but sushi is authentic. Freshness is transmitted just by looking through the showcase. Although they are run by a couple, both of them are very friendly and can eat delicious sushi without struggling. (Original) 元町からちょっと坂の方に進んだ所にあるお寿司屋さん。アットホームな雰囲気ですが、寿司は本格的。ショーケース越しに見るだけで新鮮さが伝わってきます。ご夫婦で経営されているのですがお二人ともとても気さくで、美味しいお寿司を肩肘張らずに食べられます。

    Great appreciation for the owners still serving sushi with great quality at an old age 👍 food is ordered by set menu from Special, A, B, and C with decreasing price points. Special did feature chuutoro, uni, and ikura. Sets of sushi include around 10 nigiri pieces (I lost count) and 6 maki rolls Please do chat with the owners and share your story!

    Sushi was delicious and the couple was so welcoming and sweet! The uni and tuna were amazing! Our Japanese is not very good and they made us feel welcome and tried to talk with us in English which we appreciate. Highly recommend!

    Came across this place after visiting the Gundam Factory. Small place ran by an elderly couple since 1971. The owners were very friendly and very accommodating! They take pride in what they do. It was very homely. Almost felt like I was visiting and being taken care of by my grandparents. Would definitely come back again.

    Great mom and pop shop. Been opening since 1971. The sushi was very good. Great atmosphere. If you want to go to a very authentic and local sushi this is the place

  • 5/5 李柏諭 11 months ago on Google
    This sushi restaurant specializes in serving traditional "Edo-mae sushi", and the chef has been trained at an old establishment dating back to the Meiji era (1868~1912). With a commitment spanning over 53 years, the chef has faithfully followed the traditional methods that have remained unchanged since the restaurant's inception. During the "Edo period," sushi was considered a form of "fast food." Given the absence of refrigeration technology at the time, nearly all fish had to be carefully processed and seasoned. As a result, the sushi we offer here possesses exceptional flavors, even without the need for dipping it in soy sauce. Presently, only a handful of such establishments can be found throughout Japan. If you happen to be in the vicinity, I highly recommend visiting us at least once during your sightseeing adventures.

    We came on a rainy day and they were worried if our one umbrella was enough haha. The couple have been running the shop since 1971. It’s great to see how lively they were. The sushi was also very fresh! A good amount of wasabi was placed in each piece - you can let him know how much wasabi you’d like. The environment - although quite small - was cozy and clean. The biggest group they seem to be able to fit is 4-6. The menu, you choose from A, B, or C omakase option with no descriptions given. It would be a plus to bring someone knowing Japanese to ask what each has. Price was ¥3000 and up Cash only

    Probably the best piece of fatty tuna I've had. Service was great and area was nice and quaint without the bustle of average Tokyo. And the chef and his wife were very kind and fun. Must recommend.

  • 5/5 Martin 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing experience, would highly recommend going for lunch. The owner has been there since 1971. At 80 years old he's been a sushi chef since he was 20. Him and his wife are the nicest couple. The sushi is incredibly fresh, the rice perfectly shaped and vinegared. The 7 and 9 piece set are probably the best option for a lunch. The Yellowtail and fatty tuna was a highlight! Please go before they aren't there anymore!

    (Translated by Google) I let you in for lunch. This restaurant is run by a 50-year-old chef and his wife. Chutoro, kohada, conger eel, scallops were all delicious. I don't think you can get this taste at this price. (Original) お昼に入らせていただきました。この道50年の大将と、奥様がお二人で営んでいらっしゃいます。中トロ、コハダ、穴子、ホタテ、どれも美味しかったです。この値段でこの味は、なかなか味わえないのではないかと思います。

    (Translated by Google) I went there when I was in my twenties, and a gentle couple kindly treated me warmly. I wanted to be such a couple in the future. Isn't there breakfast now? It was affordable and beautiful and delicious. (Original) 20代の頃行きましたが、優しいご夫婦が気さくに温かく接してくださいました。将来はこのような夫婦になりたいと思ったものです。朝ご飯、今はないんですかね。手頃で見た目も美しく美味しかったです。

👍👍 Loved it! The noodle's thickness, broth consistency can be adjusted. I really liked the fried garlic topping. You can choose from other toppings too. There's a fast moving (sometimes you will have to wait) queue. I believe it's like a famous shop there.
