2nd time here, as i am a repeater...

Came here once when guiding a VIP, and came last week to make my sister and her boyfriend discover some real sushis...

The latter told me as we seat in the restaurant that he couldn't eat raw fish at all...

guess what? he ate all of it.

Place and atmosphere are great. The location feels like a hideaway from the Nara crowds that swarms the park and its vicinity. In a charming allley, you find this inconspicuous traditional looking home that is the restaurant.

The sushi are made by a female chef that will showcase her skills right in front of you.

The quality cannot be questioned, the taste is worth it and, cherry on top, the selection of softs is way above the standard.

An absolute gem in Nara. Tucked away in the small streets with an unassuming entrance. The food was superb, presentation, taste, experience all amazing. Wish I could come back often. My wife and I tried out many high ranking omakases in Tokyo and we both agreed this beat them all. We reserved through Instagram DMs.

女性が作るお鮨なだけあり、繊細で洗練されたお料理でした。

店内もシックで落ち着いた雰囲気で素敵でした。

お酒やドリンクをたくさんいただい
たのですが、それでもお安かったです。
東京で同じお鮨のコースをいただくと、1.5から2倍くらいしそうなクオリティでした。

ごちそうさまでした。

As the sushi is made by a woman, it was a delicate and sophisticated dish.

The inside of the store was also nice with a chic and calm atmosphere.

Have lots of alcohol and drinks
However, it was still cheap.
If I had the same sushi course in Tokyo, it would have cost about 1.5 to 2 times more.

Thank you for the meal.
