We dined here for lunch and it was super tasty. The highlights were actually the side dishes – a perfectly seasoned sweet potato tempura, and this fried fish with crab gravy. If they made that fish dish and entree, I’d be a regular here!

The sushi I had here is unlike anything I’ve ever tasted — even compared to the high-end spots in Ginza.
I came here with my brother, who lives in Tokyo, and sharing this meal with him made the experience even more special.
While Ginza sushi is elegant and refined, this place offers something entirely different: a sense of warmth, intimacy, and artistry that’s hard to describe.
Every piece of sushi felt like a moment carefully crafted — not just in taste, but in emotion.
The fish was incredibly fresh, the rice perfectly seasoned, and the way everything came together was simply unforgettable.
Sitting side by side with my brother, savoring each bite, it felt less like dining and more like quietly celebrating life together.
I’ve eaten at many acclaimed restaurants across Tokyo, but this place has a soul of its own.
It’s not just a meal — it’s a memory I’ll treasure for a long, long time.

Great food. Kaiseki having other dishes aside from just sashimi (like in omakase) makes for a much more balanced meal. And the sashimi was also super great quality. I think it would be nice if there was some nigiri though.
Only one of the sakes in the pairing was a miss for me. Definitely one of the better sake pairing experiences I’ve had. Usually even if the sake is good it’s not clear to me why it’s paired with the food. They also mixed in some additional sake for me (I have a decent alcohol tolerance) and they changed some of the dryer sake for my wife to fit her taste.

I had a wonderful birthday meal here. Unlike most high-end Japanese restaurants that focus on sushi, this place offers a diverse range of Japanese dishes, each one delicious in its own way. The thoughtfully curated course made for a memorable experience, and I’d definitely love to return.

An okay fine dining experience.
Its ingredients worth five stars but only three stars to its flavor

Super cute Japanese restaurant in NYC. Their $95 uni don lunch special is pricey but totally worth it—really fresh and comes with miso soup, pickles, and a few small sides. They also have a sashimi don that’s just as delicious but much cheaper. The waiters are really courteous and make the whole experience feel special without being too formal.

Hirohisa has been on my list for quite a while for their famous uni don. I finally got a chance to try it and it was definitely worth the time and money I spent. A large bowl of rice was fully covered with sweet Hokkaido Uni, there’s nothing that I can complain about. I also get a few bits from my friend’s order which is Kaisen Chirashi. All the fish meat is very well prepared.

The quality of ingredients were spectacular compared to restaurants of similar price points. But I feel like the plating could be prettier for a high end kaiseki meal. My favorite dishes were the white miso seafood stew and the sashimi dishes. Some of the other dishes could’ve used a tad bit more flavorful, it was a bit on the blander side. Ingredients were not notch and super fresh though. Service was also very on point.

I tried Omakase in Hirohisa, and the overall experience was medium to upper. The ingredients are fresh, and the temperature of the vinegared rice is well controlled, especially the taste of tuna in the middle and omelet. However, the speed of serving is indeed slow. The interval between each sushi is too long, and it is easy to be distracted in the second half. The overall seasoning is light, and there is almost no sense of hierarchy. It may be more suitable for people who like minimalist style.

We enjoyed our omakase dinner here. $190 per person. All the dishes were amazing, beautifully presented! My only complaint was the waiter… he didn’t do anything wrong but we had a very hard time hearing what he said, after I addressed the issue and kindly asked him to speak up a little, the situation did not improve. The whole time we had no idea what he was trying to tell us the idea and story of each dish…
I also think there’s too many “chefs” back there doing the preparation. But nobody talks to the customers except the waiter (that I couldn’t hear what he was trying to say). When I dined at other omakase restaurants, the chefs always took time to make conversation with the guests. But maybe it’s just different concepts here.
I very much enjoy the beautiful and tasteful tableware here! Whoever arranges the presentation – did a perfect job!
