Reviews
Everything is amazingly balanced and wonderful. Crisp seaweed, heavy on the protein with flavors that bring me back to Tokyo.
What a nice surprise!
If you’re searching for the ultimate handroll experience in the city, look no further than Temakase. I had the pleasure of ordering the HANGRY set (6 hand rolls) and chose the space option on the right side, which felt more spicy — perfect for truly savoring every bite.
Each handroll was crafted with care and absolutely packed with flavor. The Scallop with chili butter aioli was divine, while the Blue Crab with truffle and spicy aioli was rich, luxurious, and totally addictive. The Salmon handroll, paired with spicy aioli and kimchi crumbs, had the perfect kick, and the Tuna with spicy mayo and tempura crumbs offered a satisfying crunch. The Toro was melt-in-your-mouth tender with a perfect hint of wasabi soy, and the Hamachi — marinated in garlic soy with a touch of togarashi chili powder — was an unforgettable, bold finish.
Every roll was fresh, thoughtfully seasoned, and beautifully presented. You could truly taste the quality of the ingredients. The service was attentive yet gave me space to enjoy the meal at my own pace, and the energy of the space was vibrant but not overwhelming. Also, they are generous with fish !
There are different hand rolls (1 item/portion) and big sushi (2 items/portion, it’s not regular sushi but it’s a fish on a rice – so, sort of sushi). You can choose any amount of the available hand rolls or they also offer you some sets depending on quantity of items in it: from 3 to 6. All dishes can be classic or spicy (with spicy aioli sauce). Everything is very tasty – fish is very very fresh. Don’t lose your chance to try hand rolls with a scallop – it’s surprisingly one of the best positions in the menu!
For drinks there are soft beverages and teas, couple of sake and beers.
The interior is authentic – all visitors sit on the counter.
But be ready that you can wait for the next serving quite a long time – only one or two people work in a one time, so they are not very fast compared with our level of hunger:) overall, staff is friendly and polite.
Poor service. They didn’t give ginger wasabi till we ask them. No water refill. No chopstick till u ask
Handroll portion slightly smaller than kazunori.
Lightings are pretty bright. Might be better if u lower.
No waiting at all on Friday night
