Hands down on of my highlights for our trip! Space is intimate and cozy. We had front row seats to the sushi chef and it was mesmerizing to see him work. Course was delicious and full of variety. The freshest seafood around and that matcha ice cream was amazing! Staff was prompt with serving dishes and providing beverages. We did a sake pairing. We enjoyed the variety as it got drier. Both chefs were so kind, skilled and enthusiastic. Tadashi spoke English and was fun to talk too and make jokes with. We left our dinner full and converted my non-sashimi boyfriend into loving it now. We will definitely come back when back in town.

I really amazing experience by your own personal sushi chef. He created over 20 different variety of sushi and side dishes. He also tried to explain all the types of food he fed us. The sake selection was also on point! Loved it.

An absolutely stunning experience! This is the second time I had omakase sushi of this price range and what an incredible night I had! The dinner was over 3 hours with the chef preparing each course and sushi in front of you, unfortunately I couldn’t understand the explanation of each sushi because of my broken Japanese lol

But nevertheless it was a joy to be able to join in for the night. They are also very accommodating for dishes that you particularly dislike, the chef changed my tuna sushi (I dislike tuna) into an extra sea urchin hand held sushi per my request!

This place offers the highest quality of sushi and a variety of seafood that you likely never heard of, and prepared in an elegant way! I felt like my culinary horizon was expanded! Overall, thank you for the incredible meal and experience!

This place is such a hidden gem in Tokyo! Found and booked this through pocket concierge and the English name is sushi band. This was definitely one of the best sushi experiences we had in Japan!

The owner and chef did not speak English, but that didn't stop him from serving us amazing sushi! We came here for lunch, and the price was quite reasonable at about 11K yen per person for the omakase. While relatively new, it seems to be gaining popularity. When we dined, there was initially 1 Japanese man, but then a family of 3 from Hong Kong joined shortly after.

The fish was incredibly fresh and between sushi pieces, traditional Japanese dishes were also served. Highly recommend this place for a quaint and quiet sushi omakase place

Only thing that would have been nice was if sushi chef Iyama Norikaz spoke some English. But that did not stop him from making amazing sushi. Definitely a more casual relaxed environment which was very enjoyable.
