When I went to Roppongi Midtown, I visited this restaurant which also has a dining establishment and the food was delicious. I found out that Zensho has three branches including the main store in Nagoya and two branches in Tokyo, totaling five stores. Oh my goodness, thank you for opening in Tokyo!! I love it!! It's amazing that you can have a delicious Suzunami-san set meal for under 2000 yen. This time, I ordered the young grated yam set meal. The fish of the day was silver salmon. There was also silver cod available, but since you can have silver cod elsewhere, I decided to go with Suzunami-san's silver salmon. First time. Exciting. Unlike the Roppongi branch, the menu here is simple with only six options. The other branch had a wider variety of menu items, including the Nagoya Gozen set meal. I thought this branch might be more like a tourist spot, but maybe Roppongi is more of a tourist area...? Anyway, I placed my order and the set meal arrived promptly, surprising me. But I said, "Itadakimasu" and started eating. (I'm terrible at taking photos, so the rice turned out completely white and I'm laughing a bit.) The rice was also served in a separate wooden container, which made me really happy. Maybe it's because of the grated yam? Is it because of the grated yam? I'm so happy. First, the silver salmon. The silver salmon, with its beautifully grilled fatty texture and the subtle sweetness of the mirin lees, was incredibly delicious!! Ah, I really love Suzunami-san. I wish people from all over the world could try Suzunami-san's set meal. The grated yam was also delicious. It said on the menu that they use eggs, and since it had a slightly yellow hue, maybe the eggs were mixed into the grated yam...? (I have a silly palate.) It was so bouncy and incredibly delicious, I love it. The red miso soup was a bit strong, but that was also good. Ah, I really love Suzunami-san's rice. Next time I go to Nagoya, I'll visit the main store.

A restaurant that mainly serves fish marinated and grilled in the style of Saikyo-yaki. The interior is not very spacious, but it doesn't get too crowded, so you can easily get in even during lunchtime. The prices for everyday lunch are a bit high, but the taste is undeniably delicious. You can also have unlimited refills of rice, so overall satisfaction is high.

Located on the underground first floor of Tokyo Midtown Hibiya, directly connected to Hibiya Station, is a shop specializing in "mirin kasuzuke" (fish marinated in sake lees). You can shop for products and also enjoy a meal inside the shop. I visited around 6 pm on a weekday and was able to enter without any issues. It quickly became crowded, but many customers were dining alone and didn't stay long, so the turnover was good. The "Suzunami Sashimi Gozen (1,980 yen)" features grilled fish marinated in sake lees as the main dish, accompanied by tuna sashimi. The fish of the day was "shirahirasu," which I hadn't heard of before. It had a mild flavor with a good amount of fat, blending well with the taste of mirin sake lees. The white flesh had a gentle and elegant sweetness with a firm texture. The freshly grilled fish was undeniably delicious. Honestly, the sashimi was mediocre, but the side dishes (vinegared kelp, three kinds of pickles) were tasty. The rice was very delicious, and the red miso soup with hatcho miso was to my liking. As a palate cleanser, a small vinegar drink (yuzu kasu vinegar) is also provided after the meal. Next time, I'll try the classic "Gindara Teishoku (2,090 yen)."

It is located on the basement floor of Hibiya Midtown. The interior of the restaurant is very small, so it quickly fills up and can feel cramped, especially with strollers. The cod set meal was fluffy and delicious, and the pickled ginger on the side was refreshing.

Located on the B1 floor of Hibiya Midtown, this shop is famous for its mirin kasuzuke (marinated in sake lees) and is called Suzunami. Although the seating is limited, there is also an eat-in space. I visited for lunch on a weekday. Suzunami Tuna Kasuzuke Don Set - 1,870 yen. The set includes a tuna kasuzuke bowl, a daily marinated grilled fish, small side dishes, pickles, and red miso soup. Tuna Kasuzuke Don - The tuna flavor and marination are not overpowering, perhaps to complement the grilled fish main dish. Grilled fish - On this day, it was salmon. The plump and sweet flesh was delicious. The red miso soup tightened the palate, providing overall satisfaction. It was a satisfying meal. Thank you for the feast.

Arrived at 3:00 PM on Saturday. Took a quick look at the 2nd floor of Midtown Hibiya, but felt like having Japanese food and went down to the basement. When I arrived, there were two people waiting. The announcement for temperature check and alcohol spray surprised me by saying "body temperature is normal" (most people seem to have normal body temperature). Waited for about 15 minutes before being seated. The restaurant had 18 seats and the meal cost over 1500 yen, but it came with small side dishes which made me feel satisfied. They served warm roasted green tea when I sat down. The daily grilled fish was saury, and it was delicious, making me want to eat more rice. Since my office is nearby, I would like to try their weekday lunch next time!

I visited "Suzunami" located on B1F of Midtown Hibiya for the first time. The shop is located on the floor corridor just after entering Midtown from the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line ticket gate. I thought it was just a shop selling bento boxes and side dishes that I often see in department store basements. The lunch menu features high-quality set meals. I ordered the recommended mirin kasu-zuke and silver cod set meal. The silver cod with its tender flesh easily coming off the bones is thoroughly soaked in kasu. The seasoning is rich but not overpowering. It pairs perfectly with the firm-cooked rice. I was pleased with the variety of pickles, and the addition of pickled ginger provided a refreshing finish. I later found out that the main company is based in Nagoya and specializes in miso pickles and pickled vegetables, which explains the abundance of pickles. This is a place I would come back to when I crave kasu-zuke. Thank you for the delicious meal!

2023/1 Revisited☆ When you feel like eating grilled fish, head to Suzunami. The silver cod set meal for 1980 yen is bursting with delicious fatty goodness. Even on weekdays during lunchtime, there can be long lines due to its popularity. The customer base tends to be older and with a higher proportion of women, perhaps due to the location or the type of cuisine. Orders are taken promptly upon seating, and you can expect to finish your meal within an hour. It's a convenient spot for a quick lunch with a friend. Personally, I prefer my rice a bit firmer, so the slightly softer rice here wasn't quite to my liking. The small serving of plum juice was a nice touch. Thank you for the meal~ I rate it as a good spot for dining alone★★★ Lost level☆☆☆

Suzunami Ginza 3 minutes away. Suzunami set meal (today's fish is Kamameshi) for 1540 yen. A Japanese restaurant specializing in fish and seafood kasuzuke located in the basement of Hibiya Midtown. The compact interior has tables for 1-2 people. The Suzunami set meal features a main dish of daily fish and seafood kasuzuke. It comes with Tanba black beans, red miso soup, seasonal side dishes, and plum kasu vinegar, all of which are delicious. The clientele consists of health-conscious ladies, making it a great place to boost your health awareness. #Suzunami #SuzunamiTokyoMidtownHibiya #GinzaJapaneseFood #MidtownLunch #TokyoMidtownHibiya #GrilledFish #TokyoLunch #GinzaLunch #GinzaDinner #GinzaGourmet #HibiyaLunch #HibiyaDinner #YurakuchoLunch #YurakuchoDinner #TokyoGourmet #Foodstagram #TokyoFoodTour #TokyoFoodie #TokyoLunch #ConnectWithPeopleWhoLoveToEat #ConnectWithFoodies #NogumaLunch #NogumaDinner #NogumaGourmet #NogumaGourmetGinza #NogumaGourmetHibiya #NogumaGourmetYurakucho #GinzaLunch #Ginza #Foodstagram

A renowned grilled fish restaurant! Start by drinking vinegar, a favorite spot of mine! Located in the basement of Hibiya Midtown. The mirin-marinated fish is exquisite and incredibly delicious. The rice, pickles, small dishes, and red miso soup are all delicious, showing their attention to detail! Whenever I'm on a business trip to Tokyo, this is one of the places I must visit.

I decided to have lunch in Hibiya on my day off. This time, let's go to Suzunami in Hibiya Midtown. I have been to Suzunami in Tokyo Midtown in Roppongi before. You can enjoy delicious grilled fish with mirin kasu pickles. Knowing that this place tends to have long lines, I arrived at the restaurant early. About 40 minutes before opening, people started to line up. Around 20 minutes before opening, they started providing waiting chairs. By opening time, there was a line of about 20 people, but it seems like those who arrived before opening were able to get in on the first round. It's a popular place, isn't it? When we left the restaurant, there were still 5 or 6 people waiting. Let's get seated and place our order. I ordered the Suzunami sashimi set meal, and my wife ordered the Suzunami tuna pickled rice bowl set meal. Our orders arrived fairly quickly. The Suzunami sashimi set meal includes today's grilled fish, Tanba black beans, sashimi, side dishes, rice, red miso soup, pickles, and a palate cleanser. The Tanba black beans seem to be from Shiga Prefecture due to ingredient shortages. Today's grilled fish is white hirasu. They have grilled the white hirasu with mirin kasu pickles. It is delicious. The flavor of the fish is enhanced by the kasu pickles, making it even more delicious. I am happy to be able to enjoy this taste. The sashimi is tuna. The side dish is hijiki. The palate cleanser is umekasu vinegar, made with mirin kasu vinegar and water, flavored with plum. It is not too sour and just right for a palate cleanser. My wife had the Suzunami tuna pickled rice bowl set meal, and compared to the Suzunami sashimi set meal, it seems that the rice and sashimi have been transformed into a tuna pickled rice bowl. Overall, the tuna pickled rice bowl set meal seems like a better deal. We were able to enjoy delicious grilled fish. Thank you for the meal.

I revisited Instagram in September 2022, https://www.instagram.com/xiaoshan7910/?hl=ja, please check it out <(_ _)> I revisited after 3 years and 5 months. I sat at a table for two and ordered the silver cod set meal for 1,980 yen including tax. In less than 10 minutes, I was served the main dish of marinated silver cod with rice, miso soup, simmered hijiki seaweed, Tanba black beans, pickles, and plum juice vinegar to drink. First, I enjoyed some pickles and pickled vegetables. Then I tried the marinated silver cod, which had a deep and delicious flavor. I refreshed my palate with the vinegar drink and enjoyed the silver cod on rice once again. The rice and miso soup were also delicious, and I enjoyed the black beans and hijiki. It was a delicious restaurant, even after revisiting after a long time (^_-)-☆

I was able to enter without hesitation even as a solo diner, and my heart was healed by the delicious Japanese food. It was truly a blessing to be able to eat freshly baked dishes. The grilled salmon was cooked to perfection. The rice was also delicious, and I felt grateful to be Japanese while enjoying the meal. - What I had: Suzunami set meal 1,540 yen

I entered the restaurant just before 11:30 am on a weekday. It quickly became full after that. It's a favorite spot for my family, and I can see why - the food was delicious! The flavors were sophisticated and the dish was so good that I couldn't stop eating it(((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o))) I chose the "Tuna Sashimi Set" this time, but they also had a set where you can compare different grilled fish, so I'm thinking of trying that next time. The daily special fish for today was grilled salmon.

Hibiya de Lunch Ginpa @ Hibiya Midtown Underground Lunch 1430yen.〜Here is a daily fish dish with maguro mountain topping lunch box 1870yen. A healthy lunch centered around kasuzuke fish, with delicious Koshihikari rice and side dishes that you can enjoy. The Hibiya branch is not very large, so it's always crowded, and even on weekdays, by around 1pm, items are selling out quickly, so be careful! The evening menu is almost the same, so it might be a better deal at night? Anyway, it feels really good for your body, so I always go for lunch. The interior is small, so I don't recommend it for large groups. The restroom is a bit of a distance outside the restaurant, and it can get crowded, so I recommend using it before entering! Reservation not available. #Ginza #GinzaLunch #FishLunch #Hibiya #HibiyaLunch #HibiyaMidtown #Midtown #MidtownLunch #Ginpa #FoodieHanako #Tokyo #Ginza #Hibiya #Midtown #MidtownHibiya

I visited a Nagoya-based seafood miso-marinated specialty store located on the B2 floor of Tokyo Midtown Hibiya for lunch. I was surprised to find a fairly solid dining area behind the curtain. I tried the "Taste Comparison Set Meal" for ¥1760, where you can compare three types of miso-marinated dishes. I chose Blackfin Flounder, Japanese Halibut, and Minami Kagokamasu for the fish combination. It took about 15 minutes to arrive. The set meal included Tanba black beans, dried daikon radish, red miso soup with Yachi-miso, pickles, and plum miso vinegar. Rice is free for refill, made from Koshihikari rice from Joetsu City, Niigata Prefecture. The miso-marinated dishes were more flavorful than I expected. I couldn't really distinguish the difference in taste between the three types of fish... I might prefer Fish Kyo. Regardless of the fish, the side dishes such as miso soup, pickles, and rice were of high quality and very delicious. I would visit again if I have the chance. Thank you for the meal!

[3.5 Rating] Visited at 3:13 pm. A shop located inside Tokyo Midtown Hibiya. I came for lunch. About 80% of the customers were already there, ranging from young to old. The interior had mostly tables for two, but I also saw some for four. The atmosphere was black-themed with quiet music playing. I ordered the Suzunami set meal for 1430 yen (including tax). The good points were that the service was polite. The miso soup was slightly strong. The black beans were plump and had a hint of sweetness. The rice was shiny and on the softer side. The fish was a type of white hirasu, very fatty and delicious. This shop seems to be known for its fish, but I have to mention that the pickles were incredibly tasty. They had a firm texture, not too salty, and very enjoyable. Additionally, there was Matsumae pickles and plum vinegar served. It said vinegar, but it was more like plum juice. The downsides I noticed were that the seating was a bit close together. While the fish was fatty and good, I personally felt it was slightly over-seasoned, making the flavor too strong. Thank you for the meal.

On Sunday, I came to Hibiya to watch a play. Since it was a matinee performance, I stopped by Midtown Hibiya on the way from Hibiya Station to the theater. I had lunch at a fish store that specializes in miso-marinated fish. The store front is eye-catching, but the eat-in area on the side is a bit hidden, making it a hidden gem perhaps. I ordered the Gindara set meal for ¥1870 and the Suzunami set meal for ¥1430 (today's fish: Silver Salmon). It was a bit of a splurge compared to my usual lunches, but I love Gindara and Melo (Silver Croaker) which I rarely get to try. The main fish dish was served with pickled ginger as a palate cleanser. The side dishes included simmered hijiki seaweed, a selection of pickles, black beans, and red miso soup. For dessert, there was "Yuzu Kasu Vinegar" with ice. It was a delicious set meal.

I had a sudden craving for Nishikyo-yaki, so I visited Suzunami-san! When you come here, the only choice is the Nishikyo-yaki with cod! Every time I try to challenge myself to order something else, I end up choosing the cod... haha. It doesn't have a strong sake flavor and is very easy to eat! The restaurant can only accommodate about 5 groups, but it's worth the wait in line! Due to the influence of COVID-19, you can't chat while eating!

The other day, I went to Suzunami in Roppongi Midtown but there was a wait, so I went home. I had been wanting to eat there, so I went to Hibiya Midtown instead. It was around 2pm on a weekday and there was some coming and going with about half of the seats occupied. I was planning to order the Gin-Dara set meal for 1700 yen, but ended up getting the Suzunami set meal for 1300 yen instead, which came with marinated miso-cured mackerel. The fish was delicious with a slightly sweet and rich flavor, and the rice, which was Koshihikari rice, was very tasty. An older man at the restaurant asked for a second helping of rice, so I followed suit and got an extra half portion for free. It was really good, but I still wanted to try the Gin-Dara. There was a 400 yen difference. If it was closer, I would want to go there at least twice a month. Thank you for the meal. The restaurant is taking great care in implementing COVID-19 measures both inside and outside, which was very reassuring, but it felt like a different world with the atmosphere resembling either a nursery or an izakaya. I also noticed that they may have forgotten to provide the vinegar drink. However, the service was good and the food was delicious, so I will definitely go back.

If you get greedy, you'll fail. I came here with the aim of eating grilled fish for lunch because I haven't had much fish lately, and they had a special called the "Taste Comparison Set Meal" (tax included 1760 yen) where you can try three types of grilled fish. I decided to splurge a bit and ordered it. The fish included were silver cod, yellowtail, and mackerel. They were all good, but they all tasted similar because they were all marinated in miso. The grilling was done well and each fish was tasty, but there was no point in having three different types of fish. It would have been better to just have one type of fish and enjoy it fully. It was my own fault for being greedy, but I was left feeling disappointed.
