Sushi Ayumu by Masa Ishibashi

Established Omakase restaurant in the heart of Orchard Road. Master Ishibashi gives a quiet but warm reception through his edomae course of fresh, seasonal seafood. We had the lunch Shiwasu (师走）course @$330+++ per person. Braised hotate and grilled Nodoguro (sea perch) hand-rolls, Sawara (Spanish mackerel) sashimi, grilled Kinmeidai were just some highlights. Loved the torotaku handroll for the crunchy textures. Have a conversation with Master Ishibashi as well and revel in his deep knowledge of the ingredients.

An extraordinary experience from the creative hands of a chef, good service, clear explanation of each menu, a place that is not too big like a real Japanese restaurant, making the interaction between the chef and the guests quite good, of course the food is delicious

One of the best Japanese restaurant in Singapore with the excellent and friendly service. Dishes were both innovative and delicious, as a Japanese cuisine afficionado I was still surprised by the new recipes and flavors. Service was superb, we were made sure feel comfortable and taken care off. The chef was very friendly kept on explaining in details the dishes we were having.

Had a wonderful experience here at Sushi Ayumu. The first moment I walked in, I felt very welcome, and the service was excellent. The chef had great skills, the head chef and the rest of the staff worked great together as a team. The food was great and everything was fresh. I left very statisfied and would definitely come back if I ever visit Singapore again.

I am always skeptical with gourmet sushi places in Singapore. Today, i am very please to know this high end place that meet my expectation. Material are prima and also the execution is perfectly done! Chef knows how to manuvering with its best materials. All is in balance. Including sake choices meet my preference. Not pretentious with dificulties in making reservation. Happy and recomended.

The food taste is not on par with the price level. overall there is no wow factor. Just taste like a normal Japanese Omakase restaurant but the bill is nearly s$1k for 2 pax dinner. Not sure why the online reviews are so good from others.

It was my third time experience with this great service and fantastic seasonal ingredients from Japan. Definitely recommended for any celebrating occasions and business dinner as well. Also private room is available and must try if you have a kid who needs to be runnng around every after 20 mins in the course of the menu😂. Thanks much Joanna for great service and chef for the excellent creation! p.s. appreciated for the special something for my wife' birthday

In the realm of sushi in Singapore, this establishment could very well top the list. Yet, indulgence comes with its price; our omakase experience for two, accompanied by their house sake, exceeded 1,200 SGD. The chef's graciousness and the staff's professionalism shone through, especially in their attentive care concerning my partner's onion allergy. They went above and beyond to ensure no dish included onions. However, I did note a lapse in their plating consistency. While we were served our abalone dish on a standard plate, our neighbors received theirs on an exquisite abalone shell. Perhaps a minor detail, but when investing at such a premium, consistency is expected. The bounty of dishes ensured we left so satiated we could scarcely move. The impeccable service from the amiable chef and the affable staff remains a highlight.
