The signature Ohagi shaped with minced tuna, and a Yotsuya plain wood counter where small bites and nigiri alternate

  • Signature tuna Ohagi sushi
  • Monkfish liver with watermelon is a staple extra
  • Seared-skin kinmedai is a favorite
  • Careful use of red and white vinegars
  • Affordable barachirashi at lunch
  • Popular spot that is hard to book
  • 11 plain wood counter seats
  • Hidden gem in a back alley

The signature Ohagi is a piece of nigiri featuring minced tuna shaped like a rice cake, drawing a constant stream of diners seeking its rich umami and contrasting textures; Sushisho is an Edo-style sushi destination located in an alley just steps from Yotsuya Station. Its signature dining flow alternating between appetizers and nigiri keeps guests engaged throughout the meal, while switching between red vinegar and white vinegar for the sushi rice according to the sushi topping brings out distinct flavor profiles. With items like monkfish liver paired with watermelon Narazuke pickles, seared-skin kinmedai (splendid alfonsino), and delicately cured kasugodai (young sea bream), the options that tempt extra orders are diverse. Along the seamless 11-seat plain wood counter, a dignified atmosphere befitting a master establishment prevails, balanced by the chef's friendly banter that eases the room. Evenings offer a luxurious Omakase (chef's choice) experience in the ¥50,000 range, while lunchtime provides reasonably priced, colorful barachirashi; reservations open on the 1st of each month for the following month.
