We couldn't wait to go this restaurant after seeing the movie Jiro Dreams of Sushi. The rest of the people at the restaurant also had all seen the movie and come from many places around the world to eat here. The atmosphere was convivial, the food needless to say was extremely fresh and well prepared. I would like to note... More

It really was an awesome experience that we will not forget. We love the mastery of the craft that Jiro has done here at his namesake restaurant. We went with sashimi... We ate and ate and ate some more. I had to start eating my wife's as she was getting full fast. We moved on to sushi and glad we... More

Probably most people who make their way to this restaurant have seen the movie "Jiro Dreams of Sushi," and after sitting through the movie you are wondering, "How good could this sushi really be?" It's that good. I have had a lot of sushi in my life, but nothing like this. You should see the movie first (buying the DVD... More

Kindly taken as a guest. Was the best meal of my life without question. My mouth waters thinking about it even months later. I was fortunate not to pay, but knowing the high price, I can honestly say it was worth it. Go Go Go... I am very jealous already!

Wife and I came to Japan for our Christmas vacation (which is becoming somewhat of an annual tradition now given we were here last Christmas as well). We heard about Sukiyabashi Jiro (famous from the movie "Jiro Dreams of Sushi") and asked our hotel concierge to help get us a seating. Turns out they have 3 branches, with the main/original... More

First of all, let's clarify one thing here. This is the Jiro Roppongi, the one run by Takashi Ono, Jiro Ono's youngest son. It is located in Roppongi Hills and definitely not that hard to find. Once you get to Roppongi Hills, you just get the escalator up from the street to the building that is on the top of... More

We were lucky to get a couple of seats in such short notice here. This is the Roppongi branch, which I am thinking is catered more towards foreigners, since the Ginza branch (the chef's father) seems not to accept non Japanese from what I understand. This is a 2 Michelin Star restaurant, compared to the Ginza branch which is a... More

Our trip to Tokyo was inspired by Jiro. After watching his movie "Jiro dreams of sushi", we made a beeline for the airline reservations and booked our trip. We made our booking with Sukiyabashi Jiro way in advance, with a little help from some Japanese speaking friends. This branch of Sukiyabashi Jiro was the only one that took reservations from... More

Living in Tokyo for 5 years I thought I already experienced "the best" sushi in Tsukiji/Ginza. I was wrong. This was the most amazing melt in your mouth tuna, eel, scallop even octopus I have ever tasted. Simply the best! The chef (Jiro's son) is friendly at the end of the meal offering to take photos with you. I even... More
