Saito

4.5 (482) $$$$ $$$$ Sushi, World's Best

Description

Summary: A minimalist counter setting frames exquisite bites of sea treasures, delivered with technique.

Saito reveals a quiet, refined room where a single hinoki counter and a private dining area set the stage for an immaculate sushi sequence. The chef sources premier tuna and other sea gifts, then shapes each piece with precise hand movements, minimal oil, and a vinegar rice that carries a gentle salt kiss. Guests receive a series of snacks before nigiri that showcase texture, temperature, and the art of balance, all wrapped in an atmosphere of calm hospitality and quiet focus.
