Sushi Hyakumangoku Ueno

Located in the heart of Ueno, Sushi Hyakumangoku is a hidden gem that has been serving exquisite sushi for over 45 years. Tucked away from the bustling Showa Street, this traditional sushi restaurant is a favorite among locals and sushi enthusiasts. The skilled chefs carefully select the freshest seasonal seafood from Tsukiji Market every morning, ensuring top-notch quality and flavor in every bite.

One of the standout features of Sushi Hyakumangoku is their dedication to preserving the freshness of their ingredients. Behind the counter, a prominent hinoki cypress refrigerator stands tall, storing the fish on a bed of ice to maintain optimal freshness without drying out. The attention to detail and commitment to serving the best possible dishes to customers truly shines through in every aspect of the dining experience. From the succulent tuna marinated in Shinsu miso to the delicate sea urchin and tarako steeped in sake lees, each piece of sushi is a testament to the restaurant's craftsmanship and passion for traditional Edo-style sushi. In addition to their exceptional sushi offerings, guests can also indulge in a variety of grilled and steamed dishes, such as homemade karasumi miso, kuchiko, and grilled kisu. Whether you opt for the Omakase course or the chef's recommended Hyakumangoku course, you are in for a culinary journey that celebrates the art of sushi-making in its purest form.
