壽司芳 台北 Sushiyoshi Taipei

Very pleasant experience in an intimate setting. Chefs were very skilled and took care in explaining everything and best way to eat the dishes. All the waiters were also quite attentive and replaced pickles and hot tea when needed. I love the this particular mix between french and Japanese cuisine and everything was very delicious. I recommend the 3800 omakase set and is enough to fill up a grown man. If you still require more, there is also an optional to add individual items. I wouldn’t say this is the best sushi in Taipei but still worth coming to.

Had lunch at Sushiyoshi Taipei in late August — a quiet, beautiful experience that stayed with me. The moment I stepped in, the space felt serene and composed; the chefs and staff were warm in that subtle way that lets you relax without even noticing. From the very first piece, you could feel the chef’s care. Each bite was balanced — the fish fresh, the rice tender and mildly acidic, the temperature just right. The tuna carried a deep, graceful richness; the uni was bright and sweet; the lightly seared fish released a fragrance so gentle it made me smile. The rhythm of the meal was steady and thoughtful, never rushed. Between each course, there was space — a quiet pause for the taste to linger, for the mind to rest. The chef introduced every piece with attention, watching softly for your reaction. That small sincerity made the whole experience warm. If anything, the rice was a touch warmer than I’d prefer, slightly softening the fish’s texture. And perhaps the portion could be a bit more generous — a few extra pieces would have been perfect. Still, it was a lovely afternoon. Dessert came like a gentle closing line, and even after we finished, we stayed a while watching the dinner prep. They never hurried us, refilled our tea, and let the quiet continue — a small act that said a lot.

The sushi bar layout is a little weird with grill in the middle. They sat up in the secluded area where you can really see your fellow eaters, atmosphere is not 5 star to start with. The food is compatible to the rest of omakasi places who have no Michelin stars at similar price range in Taipei, too much western influence in my opinion for example the taco and sourcy/sweet shrimp ice cream in shrimp patty. The ingredients are just good for this price range. And for the price and Michelin star, we definitely expected more

Had a wonderful meal here. Service was incredibly attentive and welcoming, and the food was simply amazing. It does not get better than this!

I’m pretty shocked at the bad reviews. Because of the bad reviews (which my partner and I had scoped out before making a reservation), we decided not to risk it and to only book a lunch reservation before we came, which we truly regret. We had lunch here on a Saturday and had an incredible experience. The hospitality, ambiance and most importantly the sushi were all 10/10 especially for the price. The amount of food you get for only 5500 NT PP was amazing. Every piece of sushi was fresh- the rice was perfect with the right amount of wasabi in each piece. The uni was creamy, decadent, and FRESH. I LOVE sushi, and am very particular about omakase and had a great experience. We loved it so much we tried to make another res for while we’re still in Taipei (though the restaurant was fully booked so we couldn’t). Trust me and try this place!! You will not regret it.

Not value for money The food quality is not worthy of Michelin rating. Steamed Egg with cod milt - It lacked umami flavor, and the milt was overcooked and slightly bitter.

Visited few months ago, Every dishes served was exquisite and a delight! The chef is very talented in putting together and transforming the ingredients to bring out the flavours and profile. Extraordinary and it leaves you wanting more! Service was friendly, professional and attentive, would come back for sure!

This Japanese restaurant earned its Michelin star by offering a fusion of Japanese and Western-style dishes. One dish featured crab meat in a creamy sauce topped with caviar, served with crispy crackers. While it wasn’t bad, I felt the portion size should be limited to 1-2 bite size pieces, as an abundance of caviar overwhelmed my palate and affected my enjoyment of the following dishes. There was no sashimi served, but they presented a large tuna roll wrapped like a giant maki. I found this to be excessive and not particularly enjoyable, especially after having to eat my wife’s portion as well. The grilled shellfish dish was smothered in a heavy cream sauce, which overpowered the seafood, particularly after having a similarly rich oyster dish earlier. Strangely, a sushi course was served between other dishes instead of alongside the rest of the sushi. The uni was disappointing, with a bitter aftertaste, and when I asked the chef, he acknowledged that this batch wasn’t up to par, but nothing was done to rectify it. The uni with cold noodles was also bland. On a positive note, the grilled belt fish was tender and flavorful, although the portion was quite large, again leading me to eat some of my wife’s share. The sushi, however, was average at best; it lacked the fresh, oceanic taste I expected, possibly due to inadequate aging. The rice was cold and didn’t have that melt-in-your-mouth quality. The grilled eel with seasoned cucumber was the highlight of the meal. Overall, the quality of the food was good, but smaller portions and a reduction in heavy cream sauces would enhance the experience. The meal ended with a sponge cake and ice cream with truffle, which was refreshing. The dining experience was somewhat marred by being seated in the main dining hall rather than a more exclusive, intimate corner. This lack of attention to detail detracted from the perfection one expects from a Japanese restaurant. While the price reflects the quality of ingredients used, reducing the portion sizes could make the experience more affordable and balanced. At $8000 per person, it’s not a cheap restaurant, and I believe a $5500 meal with less quantity could achieve a better balance.
