About this place
People who have visited for the lunchtime “1.5-portion nigiri” have commented on the flavour of both the toppings and the rice, as well as the accessible price for sushi that is not served on a conveyor belt. Another lunchtime diner reported that the nigiri came with miso soup made with shijimi clams. The selection and prices may change, so check the daytime menu before visiting.
In the evening, choices include Koyuki nigiri, Jō nigiri and Tokujo nigiri, along with Jō chirashi and bara chirashi. The menu lets you decide whether to focus on nigiri or enjoy a bowl of chirashi, depending on your mood. Small dishes such as kibinago with vinegared miso, ankimo (monkfish liver) and grilled sablefish with Saikyo miso make good additions. The sashimi selection features white-fleshed fish including flounder, greenling and striped beakfish.
Japanese sake is available by the glass, with a choice of varieties from different regions and producers. There is also a tasting set of three sakes of your choice. If you are unsure what to order, the set offers a way to compare them alongside nigiri or sashimi. Shirayukisushi is a sushi restaurant in Nakaochiai, with dine-in service and evening reservations available.
