Sushi Akira

This long-standing favourite appeals to locals with Edomae sushi made with Hokkaido rice dressed in veteran chef’s own blend of red vinegars, and the finest fish that he ages himself. The tuna stands out in particular, while various zensai ranging from unagi to abalone work up your appetite for the main course. Counter seats let you stay close to the action, but the room allows for more privacy. Often fully booked, but it’s worth persevering.
