Description

Summary: A snug, stylish venue where seasonal catches drive a precise Edomae rhythm and dramatic knife work.

At a compact eight-seat counter, the space feels like a quiet shrine to meticulous technique. The dining unfolds as a curated sequence, with the day’s best fish guiding each course and the chef’s timing shaping texture, aroma, and balance. Expect delicate Edo-style nigiri, bold regional touches, and a few signature tricks that heighten sweetness and aroma, all served with attentive hospitality in a calm, candlelit setting.
