“Simply the best”
My wife an I had an AMAZING dinner at Sushi Kuwano, perhaps even the best throughout out visit to Tokyo. Not only was the food outstanding, but the chef was tremendous and super-personable. If you are looking for a unique & memorable sushi experience, this is the absolute best you can do.

“Excellent Omakase in Ginza at Sushi Kuwano”
Sushi Kuwano was an excellent experience from start to finish. Chef Tatsuya-san is a master of his craft, we were mesmerized by his precise knife cuts and efficient plating techniques. All dishes from the introductory bites to the sushi were expertly prepared and equally delicious. Tatsuya-san was a... joy to be around. He shared detailed information about all the ingredients and fish in the same warm, friendly manner we experienced throughout our trip to Tokyo. Highly recommended.

“The chef is so nice and his food is great”
This is definitely one of the better sushi restaurants in Tokyo. Definitely ranks high up. The chef is very skilled and his wife's family is a market operator in Toyosu fish market. This means that chef Tatsuya has access to the best possible fish and seafood. This really shows when you sit down. ...Some of the ingredients are truly A++++ prime the type of quality you may only find at Jiro and a couple of others. To top it off, the chef is very nice, happy, understanding and helpful. If you have some special requests he will be very glad to do his best to accommodate you. For example, less rice on the sushi, or sashimi alltogether. No wasabi or no radish etc. He is very cool! Also he happens to speak a little english which is nice for communication. You can ask some questions and he is able to answer (for example about the cooking method or the fish origin etc). It is basically run by him and his wife and they do an amazing job. Congratulations. I highly recommend it!

“Amazing experience”
We stumbled across this restaurant while researching sushi. It was an amazing experience. The restaurant only seats 8 - it’s extremely cozy. It was hard to find, but we were able to find it after we googled specific instructions (on 3rd floor 3F behind wooden door) Chef Kuwano speaks a little Engli...sh and was able to explain to us what we were eating and a few facts about traditional Japanese sushi. We used our hotel concierge to book us reservations ahead of time - highly recommend this!) The fish was so fresh, his wife was so friendly and polite while serving us, and it was awesome watching him make the sushi. Well worth the price.

“Authentic Sushi Experience”
Chef Kuwano and his wife made our sushi experience a night to remember. All 8 seats in his establishment were filled and we were the only tourists, which we loved. Despite the language barrier Chef Kuwano will make you feel comfortable and explains each course beautifully. The food was amazing. ...It was our most expensive night in Tokyo but we would do it again in a heartbeat. Chef and his wife were the most gracious hosts even giving us gifts upon our departure.
