"Opened just this year on July 31st in Ginza, the new restaurant "Sushi Noboru" is located on the basement floor of a building in Ginza 7-chome. Initially scheduled to open in April, the opening was significantly delayed due to troubles with the interior construction contractor, resulting in a rough start. The restaurant has 12 counter seats and 2 private rooms. On the day of the visit, it was bustling with a full house. The owner, Hiroaki Yamagishi, is a 32-year-old born in the Heisei era. He left a strong impression with his lively customer service. He gained experience at "Ginza Kuroju" and "GENTLE" in Omotesando. The course costs 18,000 yen, with sushi and appetizers served alternately. The ingredients are stable in quality and price. The shari (sushi rice) is slightly firm, made with red vinegar and salt only, without sugar. The stickiness of the rice is moderate, with a refreshing taste. He calculates the shari compatibility based on the condition of the fish before cutting. Below are the dishes we enjoyed: - Homemade imitation crab - Squid - Young sea bream - Lean tuna - Shishamo smelt - Bai clam - Medium fatty tuna - Turban shell - Yellowtail and matsutake mushroom steamed dish - Kawahagi (filefish) - Kegani (horsehair crab) - Sesame tofu with snow crab - Swordfish - Uni (sea urchin) - Fresh salmon roe bowl - Otoro (fatty tuna) - Miso soup - Negitoro (minced tuna with green onion) - Dessert The bill came to approximately 23,000 yen. Quite affordable. Drinking sake, enjoying appetizers, eating sushi, all at this price. Of course, there are limitations to the quality of the ingredients at this price, but you can still feel the careful consideration and work put into each piece. While the sushi-making skills are promising, the restaurant has just started. Hoping that all will end well. Thank you for the meal."

The sushi was incredibly delicious as expected, but everything else was surprisingly amazing! It exceeded my expectations!! We used a private room, and the interior was stylish and the atmosphere was great! I highly recommend going there for special occasions or important days!

I used it at night. What was served was of moderate quality, similar to what modern sushi restaurants are serving these days, with dishes like mixed nodoguro with rice, but the taste is... I felt it was a sushi restaurant for tourists. Still, sushi in Ginza, with cute dishes, and foreigners will pay for it as delicious, so it will continue to thrive.

Today, I was invited by a senpai who I have been grateful to in the past. The counter was fully occupied and the atmosphere was lively. There were also private rooms available, making it convenient for dining with colleagues. The variety of sake was surprising, and both my senpai and I enjoy pairing sushi with sake, so we tried various sake from different regions. The sushi was delicious overall, with the "kue" in the beginning leaving a strong impression. The firmness and temperature of the shari were to our liking, and they paired well with each topping. Customers ranged from young to elderly couples, making it a sushi restaurant suitable for all generations. The atmosphere of the head chef and staff was friendly, and they provided service that matched the price. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

I have eaten sushi all over the country, but this restaurant ranks in the top 3 for deliciousness! The rice is seasoned with red vinegar, and it is meant to be eaten without soy sauce. The price for the quality of sushi in Ginza is unbeatable. I would love to come back here for both business and private occasions.

Visited for lunch, located on the basement floor. The interior had a calm atmosphere with a counter and private rooms. Opted for the chef's choice course. The vinegar used for the sushi rice was red vinegar, and overall the quality of the ingredients was average. Perhaps due to it being lunchtime, there was not much attention to detail in the dishes, but they were still delicious and left me feeling satisfied.

The staff at this sushi restaurant in Ginza are not pretentious or arrogant, perhaps because they are young. They create a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience without any sense of superiority. The tableware and dishes are tastefully selected. They also offer a variety of sake such as Niinasei and Akabu, showing the young and wonderful sensibilities of the head chef and artisans. Honestly, I didn't find the sushi rice and toppings particularly delicious, but I believe there is potential for improvement in the future.

Eating sushi in Ginza! At Sushi Noboru in Ginza, I thought it would be impossible to make a reservation on the same day, but I was able to book a spot for one person at 8:30 pm (^ω^) I visited right away, and the rainy Ginza was not crowded. I found a small sign at my feet and went downstairs. There are about 9 seats at the counter, and there are two private rooms. I enjoyed Ginza sushi right in front of the chef. The course costs 20,000 yen per person (excluding a 10% service charge). First, I started with an 8-ounce draft beer (1,000 yen) for a toast. During the meal, I also enjoyed a dry sake called "Tsuru Rei" for 1,500 yen and another one for 1,500 yen. The omakase course included: appetizer (shrimp and potato), Japanese flying squid (from Kagoshima) with salt and yuzu, sweet shrimp, three types of tuna from Miyagi prefecture, striped jack and bonito sashimi, cockle, grilled swordfish (with micro tomatoes), horse mackerel, fatty tuna, purple sea urchin (from Hokkaido), mixed rice with throat black, fatty tuna with miso soup, and dessert (mango something). Everything was delicious, but the striped jack was especially good. The atmosphere of the restaurant was nice, and the staff were friendly. I would like to visit again if I have the chance. Thank you for the meal!

It was a feast!

The interior of the store is clean and stylish, suitable for enjoying with friends in private rooms. The rice portion is just right, and there isn't one dish that stands out as particularly delicious. It might be different if sitting at the counter. The drink all-you-can option is included, making it affordable for Ginza sushi. It's not too expensive, and if you value the atmosphere, it's a good choice.

I was honestly very disappointed. I had made a reservation for a private room, not at the counter, but the sushi rice was dry and the shrimp had not been properly deveined. The quality was not much different from a slightly more expensive conveyor belt sushi restaurant. The service was also lacking, with many part-time staff members who didn't clear plates promptly and didn't refill water or tea without being asked. I don't think it's worth paying around 25,000 yen per person for this experience. It may depend on the timing and day, but I don't plan on returning. I will attach some photos of the food.

A very delicious lunch course at a sushi restaurant that sushi lovers will adore. Today, I tried the chef's choice nigiri. The first dish that came out was a steamed egg custard, which was incredibly smooth and delicious. The combination of egg and bamboo shoot was outstanding. Then, the first nigiri arrived, featuring firefly squid, marinated bluefin tuna, and sweet shrimp. The firefly squid had a refreshing hint of yuzu, while the marinated tuna had a deep and rich flavor. It was amazing. Next was a bowl of rice topped with various tuna cuts, which was exceptional. It had a deep and delicious flavor. Following that was a tofu made from green soybeans, which served as a refreshing palate cleanser. Then came nigiri with horse mackerel and scallop, both of which were outstanding. The scallop was huge and had a great presence on the rice. The horse mackerel was also incredibly tasty. Next up was nigiri with flounder, sea urchin, and fatty tuna, all of which were superb. The sea urchin paired perfectly with the rice and seaweed, and the fatty tuna melted in the mouth. It was truly delicious. The flounder was light and refreshing, a classic at a good sushi restaurant. This was followed by a red miso soup and a tasty rolled sushi. The rolled sushi was also excellent. Finally, the meal ended with a basil sorbet, which was a perfect conclusion to the meal.

The owner seems young, which may be why the atmosphere is very friendly and the staff are energetic and attentive, making it a very pleasant place. The sushi course costing 18,000 yen was all top quality and delicious. For that quality of sushi in Ginza, I think the cost performance is very good. The customers I went with also loved it and want to go again.

I had a wonderful time enjoying delicious sushi at the counter in a lovely atmosphere. The conversation with the chef was enjoyable, and it was a truly happy time. I love watching the chef skillfully handle the knife, and his movements were so beautiful that I never got tired of watching. When I asked for a sake that would go well with the dishes to come, the chef, who I learned was from Aichi Prefecture, served me a bottle of Gyokuto with a smile. I heard that there has been an increase in inbound demand recently... I was so full and satisfied. Thank you for the feast.

The sushi ingredients and atmosphere were flawless. However, I was a bit concerned about the service. The staff on the floor seemed to be new and inexperienced, often needing instructions from the sushi chef. They seemed to struggle to understand the instructions and were a bit disorganized. In Ginza, a 10,000 yen sushi lunch is not considered expensive, but for Japanese people, hospitality is crucial. With the increasing number of inbound tourists, it is a bit disappointing to see a lack of attention to this aspect. Nevertheless, I will probably visit again. Overall, the sushi experience left me with that impression.

In Ginza, there's a hidden gem sushi restaurant that is reasonably priced and has a great sense of style. It's funny to see foreigners and young people coming in during the pandemic. It's a common trend for new restaurants not to gain much recognition, right? The young head chef here has trained in various places, and the 18,000 yen course was amazing! The vinegared rice and toppings were all well-balanced, and I really liked the seasoning and citrus flavors. The staff is friendly and the service is excellent with a good pace. There are two private rooms, making it a welcoming place for families and children. Each piece of sushi shows attention to detail and the flavors are bold and delicious. I especially loved the sweet shrimp with vinegared rice, it was a perfect match. The thick and juicy ark shell, the flavorful baby sardines, and the seasonal saury were all outstanding. The seared fatty tuna was also delicious with just the right amount of salt. They offer a wide variety of tuna cuts like fatty tuna, medium fatty tuna, and lean tuna. Overall, this place offers the best value for money in Ginza and I have a feeling it will become very popular. Don't miss out on the opportunity to visit this restaurant. For the second round, make sure to reserve a table at the nearby Tsuchiho (grilled chicken and oden) restaurant. The hostess there is a real expert on Ginza!

I felt amazed and impressed by each dish. The sushi looked beautiful and you could tell it would be delicious just by looking at it. I sat at the counter and noticed how focused the chef was on cooking, but he also paid attention to the customers. When my partner left the seat, he naturally engaged in conversation, making sure we didn't have a boring time. The chef also spoke several languages, which showed his dedication, as he could cater to foreign customers as well.

I arrived at the reservation time, but there was no noren or lantern at the underground shop, and I started to worry if they were closed. When I peeked inside, there was light and other customers, so I felt relieved. I was satisfied with the quality of the sushi and the skills, which matched the price. It was a new shop, and the owner was running the counter alone. However, the pace of serving was a bit off, with a sudden rush followed by a long wait. The owner was a good young man who worked diligently, but there were some shortcomings in customer service and hospitality compared to high-end restaurants. Nevertheless, the quality was above average. The cost performance was good, so there were many female couples and foreigners.

I had been curious about this place for a while and made a reservation for two this time. The counter has space for 10 people with two sushi chefs. There are also private rooms, making it quite a large establishment. Even in the evening, there is a constant flow of customers coming and going, showing that it is quite popular. The sushi and appetizers are served alternately, and the price range is reasonable. The quality of the fish is not top-notch, but the vinegared rice is on the stronger side, which I personally liked. The sushi pieces are on the smaller side, perfect for pairing with drinks. The pickled ginger is light with a subtle sweetness, allowing the flavors of the ingredients to shine. The highlights for me were the fugu shirako bowl, chutoro, and kobudai. While the flavors were average, the head chef was very friendly and easy to talk to. Overall, I thought it was a comfortable place for regular visits.

I sat at the counter and had the chef's choice course. The sushi chef's service was excellent and made me feel very comfortable. The sushi was delicious and there was a wide selection of sake, perfect for sake lovers. I was completely satisfied with both the quantity and quality of the food. I definitely want to visit again.

The red vinegar used in the sushi rice was very delicious. However, I felt that the apprentice of the head chef who made the sushi was still inexperienced, as the shape and placement of the sushi seemed immature. The size of the fish toppings was noticeably smaller compared to other customers and the people I went with, which left me feeling a bit disappointed. I wish they had directly asked if I had a small appetite. The squid sushi with medium fatty tuna was very impressive. The flounder sashimi was delicious. As a tuna lover, I was happy to be able to enjoy lean tuna, medium fatty tuna, and fatty tuna, followed by toro sushi. The introduction of the dishes was spoken in a low voice and hard to hear, so I had to ask for clarification. I think it's important to communicate clearly with the diner's perspective in mind.
