Sushi Tatsumi

Through careful preparation and delicate knife work, each piece of nigiri is served with a high level of perfection. The toppings are pre-seasoned, so you can fully taste their savory flavor as they are. In addition to classic toppings such as chutoro (medium-fatty tuna), kuruma ebi (Japanese tiger prawn), and uni (sea urchin), the inventive use of yuzu and seasonings is also appealing. The lineup is highly satisfying, from chawanmushi (savory steamed egg custard) and makimono (rolled sushi) to the sweet dessert that finishes the meal.

The counter-focused interior has a calm atmosphere where you can enjoy the artisans’ handwork up close. There is no excessive tension; with a comfortably distanced level of service you can dine leisurely. The clientele tends to be relatively older, and a quiet air prevails for enjoying meals. While it conveys the refined quality typical of Ginza, the space’s approachable warmth creates a pleasant experience.

Opened in Ginza in 2002, it has continued operating while cherishing the traditions of Edomae sushi. Through careful preparation and a consistently satisfying taste, it has earned the support of regular customers. It also operated lunch service, and at times adjusted the format of that service while continuing to operate. It has become established as a sushi restaurant in Ginza where guests can dine in a calm atmosphere.
