Sushi in Tokyo

5 places for Sushi in Tokyo, picked by creators — with what they said.

• Sushi Kadowaki — Condé Nast Traveler
  An omakase that adds innovation to a traditional style, sourcing directly from fishermen and specialty distributors rather than the market, serving fish rarely used elsewhere.
  Heads up: Since it's chef's omakase, there's no menu choice — you get only whatever seasonal ingredients the chef decides on that day.
• 大和寿司 東京 豊洲市場 — 나의시선
  Says the shari (rice) is great, but the toppings are so fresh that everything comes together beautifully, marveling at 'how can this be market sushi?'
  Heads up: Even arriving in the morning meant waiting 1-2 hours in line, though going earlier lets you in right away. The standard move is adding one or two extra pieces of whatever was best in the omakase.
• 큐베이 — 나의시선
  Raved that the ingredients are excellent and the shari is insane — every grain of rice practically dances alive in your mouth before melting together with the neta.
  Heads up: Reservations aren't easy, but if you show up around 11:30am for lunch and put your name down, you can get in almost walk-in style, and the lunch set is 2-3 times cheaper than dinner.
• 츠키지 이타도리 초밥 별관 — 픽필름 pickfilm
  Said the neta was remarkably thick and even the rice itself was delicious, with the fatty tuna melting in the mouth and full of flavor.
  Heads up: Said a wait starts forming after 8:30am.
• 寿司大 — 나의시선
  Rates the omakase price as cheaper than expected and very fresh, with great balance overall.
  Heads up: Cash only, and you need to line up; the speaker felt the sushi rice seasoning was a bit strong.
