Sushi Tokiwa is a long-established sushi restaurant established over 65 years ago in Shinobata City in northern Niigata Prefecture, a city rich in rice and other ingredients. At the counter made of 300-year-old Japanese cypress, you can enjoy nigiri made by the second and third generations of the restaurant, which is run by a father-son duo.
This restaurant is so famous that it represents Yotsuya. His predecessor, Keiji Nakazawa, was one of Japan's top-class sushi chefs who developed a number of innovative styles while continuing the tradition of Edo-mae sushi. Keiji Nakazawa was succeeded by Keita Katsumata, the second generation. Although still in his 30s, Katsumata is a chic sushi chef who, like Nakazawa, uses stylish techniques.
Sushi-ya is a sushi restaurant where you can fully enjoy the fresh seafood of Akita, showcasing the craftsmanship of its chefs. While inheriting the traditions of Sushi-koma, it offers deliciousness in its unique style. Each piece of sushi, with the delicate umami of the toppings and the exquisite acidity of the rice in perfect harmony, provides a blissful experience. Enjoy memorable moments with a drink in the cozy interior.
