A sushi-loving friend who frequents this place recommended it to me. It is known for its great value and delicious sushi. Despite being located in a high-class area, the prices are reasonable. The atmosphere is calm and the head chef is very kind. The regular customers give off a good impression. The fatty tuna here is incredibly delicious. I have visited a few times and it seems that it is becoming harder to get a reservation due to its popularity. However, it is not impossible to book a table, and I am looking forward to visiting again in 1-2 months.

Located a 5-minute walk from Aoyama-itchome Station, I was invited for the first time to this restaurant. It is said to have only 6 seats and operates in two shifts, making it popular and difficult to reserve if you are not a regular customer. The course included 6 appetizers, 13 pieces of sushi, a soup, and fruit, all for the surprising price of 12,000 yen. The chef's selection included scallop, turban shell, golden eye snapper, kelp with fish roe, firefly squid, and dried rockfish, followed by white shrimp, sweet shrimp, tilefish, white squid, striped horse mackerel, mantis shrimp, lean tuna, medium fatty tuna, sardine, kohada, scallop, sea urchin, and kampyo roll. The sushi rice was firm with a tangy flavor that complemented the toppings. The chef, Ogawa, was cool and did not provide detailed explanations, but the temperature of the rice varied according to the toppings, reflecting the style of his previous workplace. Although I did not mention anything, I was asked if I didn't like pickled vegetables, and when I said I didn't, the pickled fish (which I forgot) was skipped. Perhaps I looked like I didn't like pickled vegetables... The fish served with dried rockfish was noticeably the least appealing, which was a bit disappointing. The surf clam was particularly delicious among the sushi. It was interesting to compare the white shrimp and sweet shrimp at the beginning. The scallop and sweet shrimp were especially delicious. I added a toro and lean tuna roll at the end of the course, and even with a little sake, it didn't exceed 15,000 yen. Although I felt a bit lonely at times, realizing that the chef didn't make eye contact and didn't see me as a guest, and the harsh attitude towards the male employee who chose the sake instead of the chef who doesn't drink sake didn't sit well with me... However, for those who are not bothered by these details, the reasonable price and delicious food make it an enjoyable experience.

Sushi restaurant "Minami" - Finally visited the sushi restaurant Minami, run by a chef from Namba✨ Started with a toast with sparkling wine. Even though we didn't order it, the wine pairing included 4 types of sparkling, white, and red wines, along with half a serving of sake for 7,000 yen! The alcohol was also a great deal♡ - Snacks: Kelp-marinated flathead, water octopus, golden eye snapper, firefly squid marinated in seaweed, crab with eggs, kawahagi marinated in rice bran, grilled Spanish mackerel with yuzu The snacks were light and the golden eye snapper was rare and delicious❤️ The kawahagi marinated in rice bran is irresistible for sake drinkers! This dish must have many fans~ - Nigiri sushi: Trout, white squid, barracuda, sweet shrimp, shako, flatfish hand roll, Spanish mackerel, pen shell, lean tuna, medium fatty tuna, small skin, sardine, dried gourd roll, seared tuna roll (additional) - Soup: Fruit Starting with trout, the nigiri sushi was amazing❤️ The vinegar rice was quite sour, which I love!! The trout and pen shell were particularly delicious♡ The trout had a slightly seared skin with onion accents. It was delicious with good fatty texture! The pen shell had an explosion of sweetness✨✨ The aroma of the shellfish and the strong vinegar rice were the best~ The sushi course was only 12,000 yen, a miraculous affordability! Grateful for being able to experience the 6-seat platinum seat that is usually impossible to reserve, this restaurant is a top-notch establishment that stands out from sushi restaurants that showcase luxury ingredients!

Aoyama Ichome Sushi Restaurant Minami on Tabelog has a rating of 3.66, with prices ranging from 10,000 to 15,000 yen. Located just a few minutes' walk from Aoyama Ichome Station, this restaurant stands out in a quiet corner off the main street. The head chef, Yofu Ogawa, hails from Namba and the restaurant has been open since 2020, with reservations now being accepted six months in advance. Despite its very reasonable prices, the quality of the sushi here is exceptional, making it a must-visit spot in Aoyama. The atmosphere at the restaurant is cozy and intimate, with only six counter seats. The chef is reserved but exudes a wonderful ambiance that adds to the dining experience. The menu for this visit included a variety of dishes, with standout items marked with symbols. The sushi rice is on the firmer side, and the size of the nigiri is balanced and delicious. For the course menu we had, the price was 12,000 yen, and with drinks, it came to around 15,000 yen. Reservations seem to be necessary, with a waiting time of over six months. Overall, the combination of location, quality of food, portion sizes, and prices make this restaurant a great value. It's no wonder it's so popular. The meal was truly delicious, and I look forward to visiting again in the future! #Gourmet #TokyoGourmet #AoyamaGourmet #Food #TokyoFood #AoyamaFood #AoyamaDinner #TokyoDinner #Dinner #UmeLogTokyo #UmeLogFish #Sushi #TokyoSushi #AoyamaSushi #Sushi #TokyoSushi #AoyamaSushi #Follow #Tabelog #WantToConnectWithGourmetLovers #WantToConnectWithSushiLovers #WantToConnectWithSakeLovers #WantToConnectWithCraftBeerLovers #sushi

I regularly visit my favorite restaurant, Minami, where I can relax and enjoy delicious sushi without feeling uptight.

Thank you to everyone who joined me.

The sushi I had at the counter for the first time was amazing. I prefer the rice to be on the firmer side, and it was perfect. For the price of 12,000 yen, it was already worth it. Not only was the sushi delicious, but all the other dishes were also tasty, and they paired well with the Japanese sake. I ended up drinking too much. I already made a reservation for another visit in six months, and I am looking forward to it!

It's a popular restaurant that is usually hard to get a reservation at. However, we were fortunate that a cancellation opened up a table for four. While I usually drink sake, I can't help but have wine with sushi when I come here. The sushi is delicious, but the wine selection is also amazing. Tonight was another fantastic experience. I look forward to my next reservation in October!

A 10-minute walk from Aoyama-itchome Station. A relatively new restaurant that opened in 2020. A popular place with a reservation wait of about six months! With a counter seating for 6 people and private rooms in a compact interior... The sushi at the counter is the best value for money and luxurious. The appetizers, grilled dishes, and seasonal fish sushi were excellent! It's a restaurant that is hard to visit, but it becomes a delightful place to look forward to each time you go.

Sushi restaurant Minami, Chef Hosoi, from Himi, trained at Namba Sushi, Norisore, baby conger eel, tiny eyes, Chef Ogawa's Himi winter yellowtail is the best, even compared to top sushi restaurants in Tokyo, the way the fat melts and the aroma here is the best, maybe because it's from Himi, or their preparation method, the mackerel also melts in your mouth, I only visit this sushi restaurant every month, Chef Ogawa plays mahjong.

Sushi restaurant that opened independently in April 2020. It is now famous for being unable to make new reservations, but I have been fortunate enough to visit regularly. [Visit Month/Reservation Time] Following December, I visited in January. It may be difficult to make a new reservation, and the only way may be to be taken by someone who already goes there. [Access] About a 5-minute walk from Aoyama-itchome Station. Sushi Restaurant Minami, with a discreet light shining down a side street from the main road. When the time comes, a staff member will come out to greet you. [Interior/Atmosphere] Going down the stairs to the basement and opening the door, you will find a modern-style interior with white as the base color. There are 6 seats at the main counter and 4 seats at the private counter. The space is not too small or too large, creating a calming atmosphere! [Master Introduction] Master Ogawa has honed his skills at Japanese and Western restaurants before gaining experience at the famous sushi restaurant Namba. [Course Content] The course is a surprising 12,000 yen! This price at this location is amazing... Transitioning from appetizers to nigiri, the style appears to be voluminous, but the rice in the nigiri is generally small, allowing even those with a small appetite to enjoy the lineup. Directly sourced ingredients from the hometown of Toyama Prefecture, Himi City, allow you to feel the love of Toyama. The specialty appetizer is the pickled kelp peel! It's so delicious that you could keep drinking just that! The nigiri includes Toyama specialties such as white shrimp and sweet shrimp, all of which are more delicious than the price suggests. Also, the thinly sliced nigiri of squid from the Namba sushi series is a must-try dish! Overall, there are many choices that go well with alcohol, and the variety of alcohol is also abundant. Wines include Champagne and Burgundy, and there are also many Toyama local sakes available. In fact, the alcohol is also reasonably priced. [Overall Impression] A famous restaurant where you can spend about 20,000 yen even if you drink too much. I would be happy if you could also check out my other posts. I am also looking for companions to go for sushi, so please follow me! @sushi_architect =========================== Name: Sushi Restaurant Minami Location: 5 minutes walk from Aoyama-itchome Station Price Range: 12,000 yen Closed on Mondays Reservations: New reservations not available?!

Ogawa-san's restaurant is also not very business-like when it comes to meals, and the customers are good too. I think it's a nice place.

"Sushi Dokoro Minami" is a sushi restaurant that opened independently in April 2020. It has become famous for being difficult to make new reservations, but I have been fortunate enough to visit regularly. I last visited in August and this time in December. It seems that the only way to make a reservation is to be taken by someone who already frequents the restaurant. The restaurant is located about a 5-minute walk from Aoyama-itchome Station, tucked away down a side street with a discreet light. Upon entering, you are greeted with a modern interior design in white tones. The restaurant has a main counter with 6 seats and a private counter with 4 seats, creating a cozy and calming atmosphere. The head chef, Ogawa, honed his skills in Japanese and Western cuisine restaurants before further training at the renowned Sushi Nanba. The course menu is priced at a surprising 12,000 yen, considering the quality and location. The dishes transition from appetizers to sushi, with smaller rice portions making it enjoyable even for those with smaller appetites. The restaurant sources ingredients directly from the chef's hometown in Imizu, Toyama Prefecture, allowing guests to taste the love for Toyama. A standout appetizer is the pickled skin of the fish, which is incredibly delicious. The sushi includes Toyama specialties such as white shrimp and sweet shrimp, offering flavors that exceed the price point. The thinly sliced squid sushi is also a must-try. The menu offers a variety of alcoholic beverages, including champagne, Burgundy wine, and a selection of Toyama sake. The prices for drinks are surprisingly reasonable. Overall, Sushi Dokoro Minami is a hidden gem where you can enjoy a satisfying meal for around 20,000 yen even after indulging in drinks. I highly recommend checking out this restaurant, and feel free to follow me for more food adventures. Enjoy the sushi journey! 🍣🍶"

After about 5 months, my wife and I revisited "Sushi Dokoro Minami." It is a popular restaurant, but the master, Mr. Ogawa, remains humble and allows customers to enjoy their sushi at a leisurely pace. The master is from Toyama Prefecture, and we enjoyed ingredients and sake with special connections to the region. Here is what we had: - Appetizer - Nigiri Sushi - Sashimi (Bay scallop, Amberjack, Bigfin reef squid) - Mozuku seaweed - Black porgy - Kawahagi (thread-sail filefish) pickled in rice bran - Squid and plum shiso salad - Nodoguro (blackthroat seaperch) grilled with salt - Kiji hata (black scraper) - Sweet shrimp - Mackerel - Ishigaki clam - Horse mackerel - Pickled dish - Fatty tuna - Firefly squid - Fish collar - Mackerel roll - Conger eel - Dried gourd roll With this selection, the bill came to just under 30,000 yen for two people, making it great value for money. The taste was also excellent, with the seasoned rice feeling even more delicious than last time. My wife was also satisfied with the leisurely and delicious meal. Thank you for the feast!

Squid and clam pickles, blackthroat seaperch sashimi, cuttlefish legs, red snapper with mozuku seaweed, white squid, sweet shrimp head, stone flounder, horse mackerel, horse mackerel sashimi, red lean tuna, white squid hand roll, conger eel, dried gourd strips soup, and bonito sashimi.

Today was my second visit to Minami-san. With the decreasing availability of reasonably priced authentic sushi these days, this place stands out as a conscientious restaurant that provides high-quality sushi at a reasonable price. The menu this time included Japanese flying squid, bay scallops, splendid alfonsino, black sea bream, firefly squid, and three more appetizers that paired well with alcohol. Minami-san tends to drink a bit too much in the private room setting, but the sushi remains consistently delicious with its firm and traditional rice. While there are no flashy ingredients, the sushi is simply tasty. I had a great time once again. The cozy room size is just right for relaxing, making it a comfortable place to unwind.

Reservation Yes, Number of visitors 4 people, Duration 2 hours, Price 15,000 yen per person. It's cheap and delicious. On this day, we added Tekkamaki and Kanpyo maki. Even if you drink a lot of alcohol, it won't exceed 20,000 yen, so I think it's fun for those who can drink a lot.
