Our Pick



Sukiyabashi Jiro Roppongi Hills Restaurant

Sukiyabashi Jiro Roppongi Hills offers an unparalleled, intimate sushi experience, making it a top recommendation for discerning travelers. This 2-Michelin-starred restaurant, a branch of the legendary Sukiyabashi Jiro, upholds the same dedication to pristine ingredients and masterful technique.

The small, exclusive counter creates a personal connection with the chef, allowing for a truly immersive and educational culinary journey. While the price point reflects its prestige, it's not considered wildly extravagant for the exceptional quality offered. It's a worthy splurge, an investment in an experience that will stay with you forever, delivering a memorable and authentic taste of Tokyo's high-end sushi scene, and justifying its place as a must-visit destination for any serious sushi aficionado.

Faq?

Normally yes, especially for popular or high-end establishments. Reservations are highly recommended, and sometimes essential. Concierges at hotels can often assist with this. However, there are also plenty of places that offer walk-ins.

While it's appreciated if you use chopsticks correctly, most sushi chefs understand that foreign visitors may not be experts. Avoid sticking chopsticks vertically into rice, as this is associated with funeral rituals.

Tipping is not customary in Japan. It's considered part of the service.

Ginza, Tsukiji (Outer Market), and Roppongi are known for their high-quality sushi restaurants. However, excellent sushi can be found throughout Tokyo.

Tokyo is a great year-round destination, but the most popular seasons are Spring (March-May) for cherry blossoms and mild weather, or autumn (September-November) for pleasant temperatures and colourful foliage. Be aware that these peak seasons may also mean higher prices and larger crowds.
