Sushi Hatsume Shinjuku

Such a great deal for the price! About 10,000 yen for 22 courses, which is the best bang-for-your-buck I've seen so far. Their concept is also so inventive, they serve tons of unique dishes with a mix of a traditional and modern style. The staff were so friendly and speak very good English! Definitely tourist friendly. The restaurant is very clean, and they play some relaxing music in the background. Will definitely visit again next time.

One of my best omakase experiences I have had so far, the chef was very attentive and explained every dish to us! The food was very delicious! I liked the modern atmosphere with good lighting for my picture taking. Even for my daughter who is really picky on food, she enjoyed so much as well! Definitely recommended for anyone who loves sushi and nearby Shinjuku area. Lastly, it easily costs twice the money if we were having the same meal in NYC.

I had an incredible experience at this omakase restaurant. From start to finish, every dish was a masterpiece, showcasing the chef’s exceptional skill and attention to detail. The freshness and quality of the fish were outstanding, and the flavors were perfectly balanced. The atmosphere was elegant yet cozy, also in a very convenient location. I highly recommend this omakase experience to anyone who appreciates authentic Japanese cuisine at its finest.

I've had the omakase tasting menu with wine and everything is delicious. My alcohol tolerance isn't great but they're catering to me and I'm so thankful! The staff translated the food and are always smiley and friendly! What a fab omakase experience!

This omakase experience is extraordinary. I love every single dish, not only they are delicious but also beautifully presented with stunning dishes that look like art pieces from a museum. The staff is very friendly which adds to the whole experience. I would definitely come back again!

Had an amazing experience at Sushi Hatsume in Shinjuku! I came with our 3-year-old daughter, and from the moment we stepped in, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate — perfect for enjoying high-quality sushi without feeling rushed. Every piece was beautifully prepared and melted in the mouth. The chef’s attention to detail was impressive, and they were so accommodating even with our toddler. She was fascinated by the sushi counter, and the team kindly prepared a few milder pieces just for her — such a thoughtful touch! It’s rare to find a place that balances warmth, precision, and authenticity this well. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable sushi meal in Tokyo. We’ll definitely be back!

Omakase is a must for any sushi lover while in Japan. We chose Hatsume and were not disapointed! Excellent service, great attention to detail, and affordable for this type of service! (22 courses) My wife had the wine pairing and loved the selection. Make sure to have a reservation and look for the way downstairs. Service in English was available!

Just spectacular, hard to put into words the experience here but it was genuinely one of the best meals of my life and anyone who has the opportunity to go here should. Book if you can as they only seat 12 people total and their service is staggered every 2 hours from 5pm.
