Yoshino Sushi Honten - Review - Nihonbashi - Tokyo - The Infatuation

"The sushi chefs at Yoshino Sushi Honten are masters of toro, the fatty tuna belly that melts like butter. So much so that they supposedly invented the very word in 1918, after a customer who loved the texture of the high-quality fish. This fifth-generation-owned spot has been serving nigiri zushi since 1879, making it one of the oldest sushi restaurants in Tokyo. They keep their sushi classic—the rice is only seasoned with red vinegar and salt, the traditional Edomae way. It can get very busy, so go right before they open for lunch to get a good spot in line (yes, there will be one). Once you’re in, grab a seat at the wooden counter and watch the chefs meticulously form pieces of sushi by hand in between fanning fresh water eel, seared to order. Or, kick back at a table tucked next to a shoji screen and wait for a tray of glistening fish to arrive. photo credit: Julio Koshiishi" - Kiera Wright-Ruiz

Great traditional sushi. The staff were friendly and helpful. The waiter recommended a sushi set for 4400 yen which was great. Other additional prices were 400-900 yen depending on the variety. The prices were all very transparent and on the menu in English.

Exorbitant prices that are cryptically hidden on their website. No menus given when you go in. 50000 yen plus tax for 10 pieces of sushi, some of which were fishy. This is without doubt the worst meal I’ve had in any country.

My mum has visited here before and was so excited to go again - and it did not disappoint. We went there on a Wednesday at 1pm and we did not have to wait in line. The sushi was really delicious especially the fatty tuna with chives! Everyone was really lovely to us. For a nice sushi lunch, definitely recommend. You can just open the doors and go in if it’s not too busy, it’s also cash only!

Pretty much no English spoken here. We knew this going into it so not surprised. We chose the “10 piece set”, no pictures, and it was excellent!!! I wouldn’t say we felt 100% welcome but the staff was friendly-ish. Sometimes you should go out of your regular comfort zone, away from the easy/touristy places. Very cool experience & excellent sushi.

I have decades of experience eating sushi in Tokyo . The sushi is good high quality and freshness and fine taste. Prices are good for the quality. The reviews are over hyped for sure. Everything is in Japanese only. So basically not foreign friendly. The staff has some attitude about waiting outside until invited inside. With a reservation everything is more pleasant. There’s only set menus but can order al la carte too but staff never explains this option. Because they push the set menus to make everything easier. The sushi chef’s are average at best. If you’re visiting the area then okay to drop by if you don’t mind waiting in line. So, reservations are highly recommended. Overall good.

English is hardly spoken here. A Japanese speaking friend ordered a table and a menu there. Despite the language barriers, the service was very attentive and tried to explain to us via pictures (searched on Google) what we ate. The food was very good, really pur and fresh.

Nice sushi! Fresh and prepare by order. Lunch set can choose how many pieces you prefer, the restaurant is classic and pretty. Staff serve you nice green tea and very nice. Please do not chat loudly and communicate in Japanese.

Great food, service, and overall experience. Unfortunately as mentioned in the previous comments if you are foreigner you receive fixed menu upfront with only two options - nigiri for JPY10,000 and sashimi for JPY 7,000. During our dinner we met local couple, and when I wanted to orderer more food I received regular menu with different options…
