Manten Sushi Nihonbashi

This is one of the most worthwhile sushi omakase experiences we’ve had! The price was around ¥9,500 (including tax) for about 20 courses. We were a group of four and booked about a month in advance via the official website. You can also inform them of any allergies or ingredients you don’t eat, and they’ll adjust your meal accordingly. We were seated at a table beside the sushi counter, so we could still watch the chef in action. The restaurant is quite small, but they serve in rounds, so it didn’t feel crowded at all. Every dish we had was delicious and high quality, much better than we expected at this price point. The course includes one drink without extra charge, which is a nice touch. The fish and fruit are seasonal. We visited in early May and got watermelon as dessert. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a high-quality yet reasonably priced omakase. There are several branches too, so it’s convenient. We’ll definitely come back again. Thank you for the amazing meal! 🥰

Made a reservation for this place as it was quite popular on social media and it did not disappoint! The number of items and their quality for the price you pay is amazing! We had about 25 "courses". The items range from sushi, to different soups and other small items. Everything was fish based or vegetable based. The fish seemed fresh and it was very tasty. We also got a place just in front of the chef, so got to watch everything as it was made. For drinks we had plum wine and sake, both very nice. We made the reservation a month in advance. They call you in once the table is ready. Everything was very nice organized. For our first omakase we think it was a great experience!

We had a wonderful experience at the restaurant! I found out about this place from Instagram, as a recomendation. You would need to book in advance, and the booking spots open 1 month before. The food and the service was as great as expected, and we realised why this place had the fame. The fish were cut to perfection, and food was delicious. I usually do not like fresh scallops and tuna because of the smell, but this place somehow removed the smell and I loved them also! Our chef Nori had great sense of humour and personality, and could communicate and serve in English. He also remembered my dietary requirements and took good care of us. The session lasted about 1.5 hours and we enjoyed our dinner very much. We would love to visit again in our next trip.

We booked for our second night here on recommendation from a friend - unfortunately when it came around, I wasn’t feeling 100%. But the chef was very accommodating and made me simpler options. Everything I had was delicious. My boyfriend had the full meal and said it was delicious as well - a really amazing experience. I would pass on the recommendation! Thank you for your kind hospitality!

Nothing too complicated with commercial foreigner appeal given its location, conversational English, and price point. As they say, sometimes you get what you pay for. This is definitely a novice omakase dinner. Several filler type courses (ie enoki mushroom nigiri and rolls). Fish quality is average to poor. The fatty tuna had an awful taste (discolored edges). The medium fatty tuna had black notches and was still used. Soy sauce lacked depth and tasted like grocery store brand (very salty). Felt I was on the verge of getting ill while dining and walked away thinking about a wasted meal in Japan. Regretful dining experience. On a positive note - the hospitality was still superior than the States. Japan definitely scores high with their customer service.

Enjoyed a 2 hour course that delivered fresh products and fine drinks. While I do think that some of the pieces are not for everyone, they still deliver with great taste and quality. Staff was helpful and could explain what every piece was in Japanese as well as English. The place is cramped but it adds more to the atmosphere rather than being a downside. The chefs aren’t hidden away in the back and you can see your food being made infront of you. Truly an experience worth trying!

Trying omakase in Japan for the second time, and it was absolutely worth every penny! The service was super welcoming and made the experience even better. We had sake, which the waiter recommended, and it was good and worth it. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to dive into the world of omakase in Japan!

My first impression was that this was a great place to enjoy sashimi, and I wasn't disappointed. They served fresh sashimi, with each item being excellent. The chef was incredibly friendly and talkative, which made the dining experience lively and comfortable. If you have any preferences for your sashimi, you may tell the chef, and the chef will accommodate that.
