“Sushi Saito in Tokyo is a must-visit for any sushi lover. Chef Yoshihiro Saito’s omakase menu is a culinary masterpiece, with each piece carefully crafted to showcase the freshest ingredients. The uni and otoro are highlights, with creamy and rich flavors that will leave you wanting more. The intimate setting and impeccable service add to the exceptional dining experience. Reservations are notoriously difficult to come by, but it’s worth planning ahead for this three-Michelin-starred restaurant. Highly recommended for a truly unforgettable sushi experience.”

Highest quality seafood especially the tuna. Shari has mild vinegar taste with little more emphasis of salt, on the smaller side and full of sense of air within. Remarkable.

Dining at Sushi Saito is nothing short of a revelation. Chef Saito’s reputation as one of the world’s greatest sushi masters is fully justified the moment you sit at his counter. Every piece is a study in precision—rice with perfect temperature and texture, fish prepared with remarkable delicacy, and a pacing that feels almost musical.
The highlights for me were the buttery, impossibly clean chutoro, the sublime anago that melted instantly, and a uni that tasted like the ocean at its sweetest moment. Each piece felt like a masterclass rather than simply “good sushi.”
Reservations are notoriously difficult, had to pay top dollar for a seat.. but the experience is genuinely unforgettable. Sushi Saito is not just a meal—it’s the pinnacle of what traditional Edomae sushi can be. If you’re fortunate enough to get a seat, treat it as a privilege.

Sushi Saito’s sushi can be described in one sentence.
Perfect Balance.
Sushi was served in second-counter by Hiroshi-san.
Tsumami and nigiri was amazing.
Best of Tsumami was Abalone served with thick soup.
The soup was amazing.
Best of Nigiri were tunas.
The balance bewteen acidity and fattiness was great.
Only point that was dissapointing was that there was no show and I had my seat move around a little.
Except that everything was perfect.
Thanks for wonderful dinner.

Just one word: stellar! I was dining here four weeks ago and everything was just as good as it gets: service, food, atmosphere – you can’t get anything better. Marvellous.

This is the pinnacle of sushi experiences. If you find yourself fortunate enough to get a seat with Saito, you are in for an amazing evening. I was extremely fortunate to be invited to join a party here and had a wonderful time watching Saito in action and enjoying the perfection of his art. Every dish was amazing in preparation, presentation and umami.

Been coming here for years and it is consistently excellent as always. Sushi Saito will no longer be in the Michelin guide starting next year 2020. They are converting into an introduction-only reservation system.

Can be said “best omakase sushi ever”. The skillful and talented masterchef that can be considered as the most youngest legendary sushi masterchef in today world. Very charming and outstanding sushi masterchef. High quality ingregients, perfect acidity of sushi rice, mild and easy eating, soft and great size of each sushi, very impressive sushi meal. Still earn 3 michelin stars as of 2019. Delicious and enjoy with both the taste of foods and to look at the masterchef while he making sushi with his amazing skill. Great sushi meal. Surely need advance reservation and hard to get the seat anyway.
