This place is so WORTH IT. i had such a good experience at sushi dai!! The chefs and staff were so fun to talk to and really made us feel like we were friends. the sushi was also tasty and good quality. And not to mention the price!! We paid around $36 per person for this meal. very affordable for omakase. and we were full by the end of it

the sushi that day was tamago, miso soup, fatty tuna, snapper, spanish mackerel, deep sea fish, saury, live shrimp, yellowtail, barracuda, abalone, sword fish, roll, and your choice of fish to finish (i got Japanese gizzard shad, which was braided and so so pretty!!)

i came back here a few months later and the chef remembered us! i felt very happy in that moment 🙂 hospitality is so great over here

Sushi Dai serves some of the most exceptional seafood I’ve ever had—outstanding in both quality and flavor. Every piece of fish and seafood goes far beyond what you’d expect from most sushi spots, from the remarkable freshness and precise cuts to the chef’s impeccable choice of garnishes. They truly deliver the very best to their customers, consistently exceeding expectations.

Extra note: The add-on items are highly recommended. The grilled scallop, labeled “jumbo,” was unbelievably delicious—though calling it jumbo doesn’t quite do it justice… it was absolutely colossal.

Fish was only okay – not worth the hype if you’re used to amazing quality and doesn’t compare to other places in Japan. Maybe they save the good quality for the first time slots, locals, and influencers?

Woke up early to wait in the 3-5AM queue and was just able to get a 9 AM slot as the queue was long by 4:30. Line is moved to the restaurant right at 5AM and 1 person can reserve for 3+ with a cash deposit so earlier you’re able to taxi or walk (subways closed until 5), the better. Host speaks English and moves quick.

The space is a typical counter seating, has 1 table for 3, and coat check.

The food- green tea and a first course provided once you sit down. Some people had both yellow tail and octopus first but some did not (unsure why). Octopus was very chewy. Chefs are not serving the same fish at the same time and provide randomly for each of their parties.

The basics were fine but nothing special. The horse mackerel was terribly chewy, the abalone is an acquired taste, the scallops were meh, the cooked fish cheeks were very saucy, a few other bites felt chewier than they should be. No fish was great. Was not a good intro coming from NYC. So far everywhere in Japan has been significantly better than Dai.

Service was good and the chefs and staff were all friendly and kind.

WOW! What an experience!!! The sushi MELTED on my tongue. The best sushi I’ve ever had, hands down! I’d recommend coming early morning (6am) to make a reservation… the spots fill up really quickly.

Absolutely worth waking up at 4 am! The sushi tastes amazing and great value for money.

What I love most is the whole experience. The chef makes me enjoy every piece and I noticed everyone leaving the shop with a joy.

I arrived around 5.20 am and got a queue for 6 people at 8.40 am, and it was totally worth the wait. Super recommend

We woke up at 3am and took a taxi to line up for 2 hours. When we got there we were 10th in line. I must say it was the best sushi I had in Japan! Everything was so fresh! So good that I went twice! Definitely worth trying! Highly recommend going at the beginning of the trip.

The hype was reaaalll!!!

I wish it wasn’t so because it was very hard to get a ticket (5 am lined up and got a slot for 8:40 am) but it was soooo worth it. The food was so fresh and delicious. I wasn’t a big fan of raw fish but this converted me. Nothing was fishy and the ginger and scallion flavour for some of the fishes made them taste like the steamed ginger and scallion Chinese dish. Our chef was sooooo friendly and happy. He was attentative and noticed I was left-handed and made adjustment to my dish/ginger placement. He was also very nice to chat with. I heard him speak Japanese, English, Cantonese and Mandarin to customers. A must-try experience. ❤️

Wow, this is the best sushi of my life! Every piece of sushi is fresh and different in texture. After the Omakase, the freshness lingers in my mouth. Not to mention, It’s also very value for money. Chef tries to interact and i felt very welcomed. Highly recommended!

Hail Sushi Dai. Recommended to me by my friend since he saw it on social media.

He did give me a good tip that if you do want to try them out, go earlier in your trip so if you have trouble with jet lag, you can just wait in line in the morning haha.

Also, make sure you check their hours and days that they are closed. I didn’t realize they would be closed on Wednesday, so wasted an early morning day :/

Also, uber might drop you off across the street. So make sure you get dropped off underneath the bridge.

Lined up on a Thursday at 4:10 AM. There were about 15-20 people in front already. Moved inside around 5AM where they took times you wanted to eat. I opted for the 6AM slot. You have about an hour to kill, so go across the street to the fish market to walk around.

I wanted to have a diabolical experience…so I told the chef to order everything off the menu. Do not recommend. I wasn’t hungry based on the meals I ate the night before…so absolutely stuffed myself. Also, I would have went back and told him to do only nigiri. I got plates full of sashimi lol.

Overall, meal was very good. Everything was insanely fresh and the experience was great.

Ended up paying 31,900 yen, ~$215USD. Which was still an insane deal for how much I ate. But staff was shocked to see me rung up for one for that price haha.
