When I went to Nakano in Shibuya in April, I was recommended this sushi restaurant by the couple next door. It is located on the ground floor of a building just before a intersection on Gaien Higashi Street, heading towards Iidabashi from Roppongi Station. You can enter the restaurant directly from this side. The interior of the restaurant has 6 counter seats and private rooms (for 3 people today) that the couple manages. There is a fish tank embedded in the wall at the counter, giving it a Roppongi vibe. Each person starts at their reserved time, not all at once. - Omakase - The chef alternates between serving exquisite omakase appetizers and sushi, so the sushi pieces are numbered. ・Tottori Sakaiminato - Tuna with egg yolk marinated in soy sauce and tuna flakes. They finish it off by drizzling truffle oil, but is it necessary? ・Seasonal vegetables - Snap peas from Aomori, micro tomatoes from Aichi, and molokheiya from Gunma. It's rare to have just vegetables as appetizers at a sushi restaurant, but these vegetables are delicious! ① Saga's Kozara - Is there something sandwiched in between? Ginger? The kozara itself is delicious, with a good texture. The white sushi rice is moderately vinegared and slightly warm. The sushi is fluffy. The drops hanging from the counter are for washing your fingers, I see! ② Miyagi's Manako - Kombu-marinated and tender with a rich flavor. ③ Kagoshima's Madai - This feels like regular refrigerated sea bream, right? ・Sancho pepper and shrimp tempura - The sancho pepper has a nice aroma. The shrimp tempura has a good texture with the fragrance of the shrimp. ④ Mie's Kusaya - After boiling, squeeze some vinegar citrus on it. Ah, this is delicious! ⑤ Fresh turban shell - Fresh and fragrant, also delicious. ⑥ Choshi's Kinmedai aburi - Lightly fragrant and delicious, with the fat melting nicely! ・Shimaebi from Shima - Flavorful and tender, delicious~! ⑦ Yamaguchi's Akidai - The cuttlefish is cut for easy eating, topped with various spices, delicious! ・Chawanmushi - Sweet and savory broth. The crunchy texture is from Aichi's corn. This is delicious too! ⑧ Kumamoto's Kuruma ebi - It's big! But, um. Compared to famous restaurants I've been to, it lacks sweetness and crunchiness. ⑨ Chu-toro - The balance between the acidity of the flesh and the sweetness of the fat is just right and delicious. ・Toyama's Shiraebi, Hokkaido Rebun Island uni, and homemade soy sauce-marinated ikura - Eating it this way helps you appreciate the sweetness of the sushi rice. ⑩ O-toro - Fatty! But not too oily. ⑪ Nagasaki Tsushima's Akamutsu "Kohin" hand roll - Plenty of fat, retaining a bouncy texture, delicious! ⑫ Tsushima's simmered anago - Looks rich but surprisingly light and easy to eat. ⑬ Rolled sushi - Tekkamaki with three types of tuna (O-toro, Akami, Chu-toro) ・Shiba ebi and Yamato potato authentic tamagoyaki - Firm and solid. ・Miso soup with nori - Contains only nori and shallots. The broth made from flounder bones is flavorful and delicious. Additional: Rolled dried gourd in thin rolls - With a touch of rust (not specified) the sweet and spicy flavor of the dried gourd and the refreshing taste of wasabi match perfectly and taste delicious. The first tuna was a bit questionable for me, but overall, it was delicious. This sushi restaurant offers creative appetizers like seasonal vegetables and tempura, similar to a Japanese restaurant. As the official page boasts, "Exquisite sushi and a variety of Japanese sake in the Roppongi area," this restaurant also offers a wide selection of unique Japanese sake, so sake enthusiasts, how about it? 😉

Roppongi "Sushi Kakuno" is a sushi restaurant located away from the hustle and bustle of Roppongi. With a counter seating for 6 and private rooms, the master chef and his wife warmly welcome guests. The atmosphere is very pleasant. It's nice that they don't start serving all dishes at once. They also accept same-day reservations depending on availability. Each dish is carefully prepared, with no overly assertive flavors, allowing the sake and sushi to shine. The sushi was also excellent. The rice vinegar used for the sushi rice is balanced with salt, with minimal sugar. The sushi rice, a blend of Koshihikari from Toyama and Tsuyahime from Yamagata, is small in size with a slight firmness and melt-in-your-mouth texture. Sushi Kakuno is a great restaurant. I discovered this place through a Google review that criticized the high price of the torotaku (fatty tuna) souvenir. The reviewer seemed unaware of the value of the item and criticized the restaurant without reason. However, the restaurant responded sincerely and logically. Looking at photos, the torotaku looks beautifully presented, showing the chef's effort to please customers. Considering the sushi scene in Roppongi, the prices are actually quite reasonable. Visiting the restaurant was definitely the right choice. I received the torotaku as a souvenir and enjoyed it as a late-night snack. I found a great restaurant. The food was delicious. Thank you. I will definitely visit again.

Photo course cuisine (although not all photos were taken, the photos are of firefly squid and uni ikura small bowl). I went to Sushi Kakuno with a friend for a meal. The restaurant is conveniently located within a 10-minute walk from Roppongi Station, Roppongi-itchome Station, Azabu-Juban Station, etc. The restaurant is located on the basement floor, with counter seats and private rooms available, making it perfect for entertaining or special occasions. We ordered the course menu, which included around 11 types of sushi, sashimi, and small bowls, offering a generous amount of food that even women can enjoy.

This was my first time having sushi in Roppongi. I visited as a thank you to a friend who introduced me to a job opportunity. Roppongi is known for its party atmosphere and is a place where adults can enjoy themselves. It is different from food-centric areas like Ginza and Kagurazaka. I wanted to find a good sushi restaurant in this area. We ordered a course meal that started with a stylish appetizer using tuna. The overall quality was high and the price was reasonable. The torafugu and nodoguro were amazing, especially the rich flavor of the nodoguro. The restaurant had a relaxing atmosphere with fish swimming behind the counter and water flowing in front of it. The restroom was also clean. The owner was friendly and made us feel comfortable. With good value for money, I believe this is a place where you can confidently introduce to important people.

A sushi restaurant quietly located near the intersection of Iidabashi in Roppongi. The restaurant has a counter with six seats and one private room. Each piece of sushi is meticulously crafted and incredibly delicious! The rice crumbles in your mouth and harmonizes perfectly with the toppings. I recommend leaving it up to the chef's choice here. The kindness of the owner and hostess creates a very comfortable atmosphere where you can enjoy a truly impressive sushi experience. It's probably going to become a restaurant that's hard to get a reservation at. It's the perfect place to spend quality time with your loved ones.

Located in a prime area under the Tokyo Tower, surrounded by embassies and high-end shops, this sushi restaurant is perfect for special occasions, celebrations, and entertaining guests. The restaurant offers completely private rooms with a focus on interior design, where you can enjoy sake that complements the sushi. It is a hidden gem near the intersection of Roppongi and Azabu streets. There are two course options, priced at 15,000 yen and 20,000 yen, featuring a variety of delicious dishes including sushi. The rice, made from a blend of two different types cooked in a feather pot, shows a great attention to detail. The selection of Japanese sake, shochu, and wine is extensive, sourced from all over Japan to pair perfectly with the sushi. Sushi Kakuno 5-18-2 Roppongi, Minato-ku, Tokyo Basement floor, Daisho Building No.2 03-5545-5496 18:00 - 23:00 (last order at 22:00) Closed on Sundays

"Kakuno Sushi" that Momo-chan took me to, despite having a low score on Tabelog, is a wonderful place. The calm atmosphere with water droplets flowing, the friendly couple serving delicious sushi and appetizers, and the sake all made me happy. I have a habit of getting emotionally involved in what's happening in front of me and tend to think narrowly, which sometimes makes me feel stuck. Momo-chan is funny and knows that life doesn't always meet expectations. She looks at things from a broad perspective without bias, living honestly and making me feel lighter and more open-minded just by listening to her. I'm not good at drinking lately, but I'm grateful for her company! Thank you! #Roppongi #KakunoSushi #Gurudan #SupportingRestaurants #Tabelog #Gourmet #Foodie

The delicious ingredients, great ideas, excellent presentation, skillful hands, thoughtful service, and cozy atmosphere make this place worth visiting. Even with a group of heavy drinkers, the bill is quite reasonable considering the quality of food and drinks. The staff, led by the chef and hostess, provide excellent service with entertaining conversations. Despite being open for only 4 years, they have already surpassed other sushi restaurants in the area. I will definitely be returning here in the future. Thank you!

A sushi restaurant near the Roppongi-Ikura-Katamachi intersection. Despite being in Roppongi, it has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. I have visited several times, and each time they incorporate new menu items with seasonal ingredients, so it's always enjoyable. In the Roppongi area, many places charge over 20,000 yen per person, but "Kakuno" offers meals starting from 12,000 yen, making it a great value and highly recommended.

I visited the sushi restaurant "Sushi Kakuno" located in Roppongi 1-chome, 085/200. It is about a 10-minute walk from Roppongi Station and is located underground. The calm atmosphere inside the restaurant has around 12 counter seats. I started with a glass of white wine for a toast. I opted for the chef's choice course that day. The first dish was marinated tuna with a rich egg yolk truffle sauce. The egg yolk sauce was thick and the truffle oil added a nice aroma. Next was the grilled abalone, which was hot and comforting. The sushi course started with a hirame (flounder) sushi, which had a nice acidity to it. This was followed by a marinated flounder fin, which had a chewy and bouncy texture. Then came the white shrimp marinated in seaweed, which was even more sticky and sweet. I enjoyed some sake with the sushi, and then had some anglerfish liver wrapped in seaweed. The next sushi was a fatty horse mackerel, followed by a tea cup steamed egg custard with a large prawn. The chutoro (medium fatty tuna) melted in my mouth. I also had grilled fatty tuna with a rice bowl topped with sea urchin and salmon roe, which was undeniably delicious. The sake was still flowing, and I had some Hidashibori sake. The conger eel was served with a delicate sauce. Towards the end, I had a toro and egg roll, followed by tamago (sweet omelet) and miso soup for a comforting finish. The sushi and sake paired well together, and I had a great time at the welcoming counter. I will definitely visit again. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

I visited Sushi Kakunoi in Roppongi for the first time. The interior, themed around nature, is casual and stylish. The head chef cooks two types of rice that he blends himself in a kettle. I enjoyed carefully paired sushi with Japanese sake. The attention to detail was very satisfying. I would love to visit again! Thank you for the wonderful meal!

The counter was completely empty with only me there. It was a bit awkward having one-on-one service... It seems like they just opened. The food was delicious! And I was surprised that water came out for washing my hands right in front of me! This was definitely a first for me!

I visited the restaurant on a regular evening. It is located near Roppongi Station, on a street with stores like Don Quijote, as Tokyo Tower comes into view. The restaurant is on the basement floor, but the entrance is separate from the 1st floor so be careful. It was a small place with a counter of 5 seats and one private room. The food and sushi were delicious, with the uni being particularly sweet and tasty. However, the young woman in a kimono serving was a bit slow to notice, making it difficult to order drinks or ask for more soy sauce. If you don't mind that, it's a good place! They have a selection of sake and wine, which adds to the stylish atmosphere. I don't think I will visit again.

Delicious and great value for money! Hurry and go before it becomes difficult to make a reservation.

It was incredibly delicious! Everything was delicious. Even though I have been eating sushi non-stop in Hokkaido, I was very satisfied. After eating the sushi by hand, there was a device under the counter that made water drip onto rocks, which added to the atmosphere and was stylish. It was truly the best hospitality. I will definitely go back again.

Thank you for yesterday! The appetizers and sushi were delicious, and the atmosphere was lively with good conversation. The drinks were also plentiful and enjoyable. I will definitely visit again next time.

A sushi restaurant that people really want to cheer on. Their eel and sauce are especially delicious!

I might like the sushi here the best. From the appetizers to everything, it has a perfect balance and brings out the deliciousness of the ingredients. A genius at bringing out the flavors.
