SushiTen

Nishi-​Azabu is the area, close from Roppongi and Hiroo, famous for luxury and exclusive restaurants. It used to be (well, it still is, sort of) the area for celebrities to hang out late at night. In recent years, due to a fierce competition among restaurants in the area, many of the ones that are popular and in business now are actually very good.
Anyways, this place is certainly not for daily use but considering the quality of its sushi/​service/​atmosphere, JPY 10,000 for their dinner course is exceptionally good. I was pretty impressed when I visited for the first time, but even after then trying several other places that were 2 – 3 times more expensive than Sushiten, I actually came to become fully aware how competitive this place is – It’s really amazing that they serve this high quality sushi at this pricing. Sushiten is so far the best Sushi place for me.

THE BEST SUSHI I EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. I repeat, if you do not eat here on your trip to Tokyo, please do NOT say you even went to Tokyo.
I eat sushi about 2 times per week in NYC. I’m not talking California rolls made with love. No. I’m talking’ I sit at the sushi counter and eat chefs choice (omakase) sushi every week. I’m obsessed. I eat sushi for breakfast sometimes. Over time, one starts to understand how complex making sushi actually is. I would narrow it down to 3 components: the rice (sounds so easy right? just mix up some rice… no no no my friend), the soy sauce blend (every place makes a different soy sauce), and obviously the fish has to be fresh and tasty. If any one of these factors is off, it throws off the meal entirely.
I dined at Sushi Dai in Tokyo at the fish market which was tasty but very informal. I also ate at another high-​end sushi restaurant which I cannot think of the name (I wasn’t a fan). SushiTen blew me out of the water, literally.
I have eaten at Masa before ($ 500 per person and up) and almost every high-​end sushi restaurant in NYC. I ate at Sushi Dai in Tokyo and another sushi spot that has a michelin star, NONE COMPARE TO SUSHI TEN. Trust me on this one.
It’s hard to find the restaurant so I would suggest asking around when you get close to the restaurant. ENJOY.
