Edo-Gin

Edo-Gin Review

In an area that teems with sushi bars, this one maintains its reputation as one of the best. Edo-Gin serves generous slabs of fish that drape over the vinegared rice rather than perch demurely on top. The centerpiece of the main room is a huge tank where the day's ingredients swim about until they are required; it doesn't get any fresher than this. Set menus here are reasonable, especially for lunch, but a big appetite for specialties like sea urchin and otoro tuna can put a dent in your budget.

    This was the only restaurant in Japan that we ate at more than once. Sitting at the bar and pointing at the picture menu was a lot of fun. The chefs loved us trying new things and enjoying our food so much. Not touristy at all (only one waitress speaks english), very authentic, an overall great experience.
