About Sushi Kanesaka
Sushi Kanesaka is the Ginza flagship of the Kanesaka group, an eight-seat basement counter in white wood set with Rosanjin pottery and period flower vases. The sushi is straight Edomae, and the kitchen is exacting on small touches like boiled sweet shrimp served with its own roe. It holds two Michelin stars and a long run of Tabelog awards.
Tabelog regulars return often and call it authentic Edomae with expert, generous work and no complaints on the fish. Diners writing online describe a posh crowd, a spacious wooden counter and friendly staff, with one party summing up the omakase as two hours of heaven. The recurring caveat is cost: several note it runs noticeably higher than other top Ginza counters, though most felt the meal justified it.
