I had sushi at Hyakumangoku in Ueno. It's a bit difficult to find on a large map, but it's located a little further in from the Koreatown area in Ueno. The appetizers included salted squid, boiled conger eel, and simmered sea bream liver, all carefully prepared with a good balance of flavors. The first dish included young flounder, female rockfish, turban shell, and northern surf clam. The raw turban shell was particularly amazing. The second dish included horse mackerel and bonito, with the horse mackerel being outstanding. The highlight of the meal was the fresh young fish, which was delicate and delicious. The sushi was beautifully presented and tasted amazing, with each piece expertly crafted. The meal also included other delicious dishes such as sea bream, red squid, sea urchin, and shrimp. Overall, the experience at Hyakumangoku was fantastic, and I highly recommend it.

This was my first time visiting! It's a bit pricey, so I hadn't been before, but I happened to come today and it was delicious! The vinegar rice was just right. The herring sushi had no fishy smell at all! They also added stem wasabi, cucumber, shiso, and sesame to the sushi, which was really tasty. They use fresh wasabi, which is not common, and it was so delicious! The ikura rolls and negitoro rolls were really good too! The anago sushi and sashimi they served were also delicious! In Ginza, a place like this would cost 1.5 times more, but for sushi, it's worth it. I thought it was very delicious! Thank you for the meal!

This is my second visit since I came to get fresh seafood in the summer. The assorted appetizers of three kinds of jellyfish were crunchy and delicious, I really love them here. The vinegar-marinated conger eel and cheese miso-marinated dishes were also delicious! The chef's miso-marinated series here has a perfect balance of sweetness and rich flavor that spreads throughout the mouth. So, on this day, I ordered the miso-marinated karasumi quite early. The sashimi included sea bream, scallop, young sea bream, and rolled horse mackerel. The young sea bream, though small, was flavorful with good fat content. The rolled horse mackerel, a specialty of this restaurant, was complemented well by the kaiware daikon and pickled ginger. The wasabi had a nice spiciness that led us to order more towards the end. The conger eel liver simmered dish had a texture and taste reminiscent of hormone, but without any unpleasant smell. The nigiri sushi started with a comparison of squid types, one being sumi squid, and the other I unfortunately forgot. We enjoyed the different textures of soft and crunchy. From the kelp-marinated golden snapper to the marinated tuna, medium fatty tuna, gizzard shad, sea urchin, horse mackerel, scallop, and conger eel, we savored each piece slowly and felt pure happiness in our mouths. We particularly enjoyed the sea urchin and scallop, so we ordered more. The meal ended with sea bream miso soup, a rolled omelette, and rolled horse mackerel. We will definitely be back next year, thank you for the feast.

I visited the restaurant on Wednesday afternoon. It was only one group at first, but soon it became full. I started with a draft beer and then had an omakase course which included white squid, golden eye snapper, marinated tuna, medium fatty tuna, and gizzard shad. I switched to Tateyama cold sake at this point, and enjoyed sea urchin, red tuna, horse mackerel, alfonsino, conger eel, and rolled omelet. Finally, I had miso soup with clam and finished the meal. The friendly service and delicious sushi and sake left me very satisfied.

The taste and atmosphere of the restaurant were both wonderful! Here are some details: - The restaurant has a counter and private rooms. We were a group of 4 people and opted for a private room, which could easily accommodate 20 people. It felt luxurious and was great for infection prevention. - The recommended appetizers by the chef were truly delicious. Every dish was excellent, but the combination of karasumi (bottarga) and pickled daikon was outstanding. The sake was also very tasty. - The sushi was made with delicious ingredients, but the rice was slightly softer than preferred.

I made a reservation and visited for a meeting. The marinated salmon roe in the appetizer was so delicious. It had the perfect balance of flavor, not too strong or too light. The beautifully presented side dishes had a lot of charm. Of course, the sashimi was fresh and tasty. The grilled abalone had a delicate aroma that went perfectly with the sake. And when I tried the shirako, I was in heaven. Eating the sushi as the finishing touch, I was completely content and happy with the sake. The persimmon served at the end was also lovely, especially since I visited in autumn. I definitely want to visit again.

I had another excellent meal here! The sushi was fresh and the ark shell was incredibly delicious. The roll had squid in it, giving it a luxurious taste. Last time, there were hardly any people due to the state of emergency, but this time it was very crowded and I couldn't sit at the counter. I'll have to make a reservation for next time. In short, it was delicious!

I went to Andorra to eat a hamburger, but was shocked to find out that they were not open for lunch. So, I decided to try out Hyakumangoku, a sushi restaurant for the first time. The restaurant had a high-class feel with a nice facade and interior. The acrylic board frames at the counter were made of wood and looked like they were crafted by a master carpenter, giving a sense of sophistication and safety in the midst of the pandemic. I ordered the nigiri set for 1.5 people (2000 yen). The meal started with a chawanmushi (steamed egg custard) and ankimo (monkfish liver). The chawanmushi was plain and slightly firm, while the ankimo had a strong flavor. The head of the sweet shrimp in clear soup was delicious. Kappamaki (cucumber roll) and tekka maki (tuna roll) were served next. The rolls were neatly made and served in pairs. The tuna and squid were flavorful with a nice texture. The set also included akami (lean tuna), kanpachi (amberjack), iwashi (sardine), battera (pressed mackerel), hotate (scallop), and amaebi (sweet shrimp). The tamago (egg omelette) was store-bought, and the anago (conger eel) had a sweet taste. Overall, for 2000 yen, the meal was decent.

A long-established sushi restaurant in Okachimachi? where the second-generation chef prepares sushi. The first-generation chef also stands behind the counter. The interior of the restaurant is very beautiful, with acrylic panels for splash prevention that are not just transparent but also stylishly carved with pictures on wooden frames. It's a great place for a date, and locals also casually drop by. Everything was delicious. It seems like it's not talked about much, so I think it's a hidden gem! The prices are not as high as sushi restaurants in Ginza, but the taste is even better! In other words, it offers great value for money. There were plenty of appetizers that go well with drinks at first. The sushi had a lot of seasonal ingredients and was delicious, it was amazing. I want to go back again.

I tried going a few times but it was closed, finally managed to get in on the third attempt. They are particular about using old refrigerators and I like their Kaga-style sushi, so I decided to visit. However, if you don't order more than the Upper Sushi set, the service is poor and the quality of the sushi is not good. The cost performance is also bad. Even at the price of 1.5 servings, other restaurants serve better quality sushi. I recommend ordering Upper Sushi or higher if you visit this place.

This was my first time using it for lunch, but the quality was quite high and the cost performance was top class among the sushi restaurants I have been to so far, at a very reasonable price! In addition to the photo, I had several other sushi pieces made for me! It was so delicious that I would like to go again, thank you for the meal.

A long-established sushi restaurant located between Ueno and Okachimachi, a bit away from the bustling areas. I made a reservation through Tabelog and visited the restaurant. I had the Chef's Choice course (10,800 yen) which included various appetizers and nigiri sushi such as ikura, squid, kinmedai, nodoguro, akami, chutoro, kohada, uni, akagai, ikura, aoyagi, iwashi, aji, awabi, anago, and special rolls like torotaku and anakyu. The sushi pieces were large and delicious, providing a satisfying dining experience. Interestingly, when I asked about the name "Kaga Hyakumangoku," I was told that it has no relation to Kanazawa-style sushi.

■Usage SceneVisited during daytime on a weekday.■Order・1/2 portion of nigiri sushi - 2,000 yen including tax■ImpressionI visit Hyakumangoku when I want to eat delicious sushi in Ueno. It's a bit of a walk from Ueno Station, but the cost performance is good and the sushi is delicious, so I have repeated it about 3 times so far. This time, I ordered a single portion! The sushi lineup includes: - Akami (lean tuna) - Squid - Kanpachi (amberjack) - Chutoro (medium fatty tuna) - Scallop - Ikura (salmon roe) - Negitoro roll It's very pleasing to have both chutoro and ikura in the limited selection of sushi! Also, the accompanying miso soup complements the sushi well. For those who want to enjoy a hearty meal from the start, ordering a half portion may be a bit lacking, so ordering a half portion for one person might be a good idea.■Location・AccessA 5-minute walk from Ueno Station.

I felt like having some sushi for lunch, so I stopped by a nearby restaurant. The atmosphere was very high-class, with a lunch special of 1500 yen for nigiri sushi. Despite feeling a bit out of place in my work clothes, I was warmly welcomed by the staff and seated in a luxurious setting. The sushi was delicious, with fatty tuna, fresh squid, and tasty salmon roe. The lunch also included side dishes like simmered yellowtail, steamed egg with plum sauce, and miso soup with sweet shrimp. Everything was served elegantly on long plates. The highlight was the incredibly delicious tuna, which turned out to be bluefin tuna. All of this for just 1500 yen, including tax. I was so impressed by the quality and value of the meal, especially the top-notch tuna. (I initially thought it was from India, so I must have a simple palate.)

Today, on my way to Ameyoko, I had lunch at a sushi restaurant. The exterior gave off a high-end atmosphere, but once inside, it was clear that it was a genuine sushi restaurant where they treated you with care. I was seated at the back of the counter and ordered the "nigiri set for one - 1500 yen". Starting with the minimum order allowed me to check the restaurant's dedication. First, I was served tea, simmered shellfish and greens, chilled chawanmushi, and miso soup with shrimp. The simmered dish included surf clam, scallop, and whelk, providing a delightful texture. I quickly tried the chawanmushi to enjoy the freshness. The chilled chawanmushi made me feel like it was summer. The miso soup with two shrimp heads was exactly as I imagined - the shrimp flavor was outstandingly delicious. Now, the sushi was being served one by one. Starting with the tuna! The slightly vinegary rice was elegantly small, enhancing the flavor of the tuna. The squid was delicious as usual. The surprise was the yellowtail! The champion of the year! Incredibly delicious! The scallop, sweet shrimp, and salmon roe were all delicious in a typical sushi restaurant way. Sitting at the counter, watching the sushi being prepared right in front of me, I couldn't believe how good it was for such a low price. I truly found a great restaurant. Thank you for the meal.

JR Hirosakoji Station is a 5-minute walk away, JR Okachimachi Station North Exit is a 6-minute walk away, and Naka-Okachimachi Station North Exit is also a 6-minute walk away. It is located in a hidden spot a little away from the station, which is actually quite nice. The restaurant has a luxurious atmosphere, with a wooden counter and private rooms and table seats available, but sushi is best enjoyed at the counter. Watching the chef skillfully slice and prepare the sushi right in front of you is a highlight and a real treat. The lunch menu includes: - Nigiri Sushi for ¥1500 - 1.5 servings of Nigiri Sushi for ¥2000 - Jyo Nigiri Sushi for ¥3300 - Omakase (chef's choice) for ¥6600 - Chirashi and Tekkadon for ¥1500 - Special Chirashi for ¥4900 I had the Jyo Nigiri and each piece was carefully and thoughtfully prepared with love. I enjoyed watching the chef work at the counter while waiting for each piece. It was exciting to wonder what would come next. I think there were 7 pieces in total. The fish was the perfect size and thickness, satisfying for a woman like me. There was no fishy smell at all, and the fish was firm and fresh. It was also visually appealing. The chef seemed kind and friendly. There were two other groups of what seemed like regular customers besides me (I was dining alone), but the staff made sure to create an atmosphere where everyone felt comfortable and at ease. The regular customers were also very nice, so I was able to enjoy my meal in a relaxed manner. I definitely want to try the Omakase next time! ♥

Visited for lunch and ordered the Tekka Don. The quality of the food was great, especially the shari (sushi rice) was delicious. I can't remember the exact price, but I felt it was very reasonable considering the quality. I would love to visit this restaurant again for lunch in Higashi Ueno. Thank you for the meal.

I had a reservation at 6:00 pm, so after enjoying an aperitif champagne at a hotel lounge that I had been curious about, I came here. My companion asked for some snacks and ended up eating quite a few nuts, so they weren't really hungry anymore. I only had 3 or 4 nuts, so I'm good! It was quite cold even though it was winter, so after finishing the champagne, I quickly switched to hot sake!! And then, yes, I always have fun with sushi, so I end up drinking too much sake. My companion said they weren't very hungry, so they only wanted a little bit, but I ended up getting a whole sashimi platter just for myself. We also had highballs as chasers, and before I knew it, I was already drunk. I don't remember much from the second half of the sushi feast, but it was a lot of fun! The generous chef and great service made the experience enjoyable. I think I liked the texture of the rice and the wasabi. Thank you for the meal!

I came to Ueno on July 5, 2019. It was my check-up day, which happens once every three months. The test results were all normal, thanks to my daily health habits. However, they mentioned that I have lost a bit too much weight. After the hospital visit, I met up with my mom and we went to a sushi restaurant we had been wanting to try. When we looked at the menu, we noticed that the prices had gone up a bit. My mom ordered the assorted nigiri sushi, while I ordered the chirashi bowl. Both came with a small side dish (fish and daikon simmered dish), cold chawanmushi, miso soup with shrimp head, and coffee after the meal. The chirashi bowl had tuna, squid, sea bream, salmon roe, sweet shrimp, octopus, tamagoyaki, denbu, pickled radish, and simmered shiitake mushrooms on top of the rice. It was a classic and well-presented chirashi bowl. The fish was decent, and the tuna had a rich flavor as if it had been aged. The sushi rice had a subtle sweetness with a slightly strong acidity and saltiness. The balance was good due to the sweetness of the denbu and pickled radish. The chawanmushi had a strong eggy flavor like pudding, with a hint of plum adding a nice touch. The only issue was with my mom's assorted nigiri sushi. The price had increased by 1000 yen over the past few years, which was a bit surprising. However, the taste was excellent and the presentation was beautiful. But still, it made me think, is it worth paying 3000 yen for this? Even in Ginza, there is a trend towards getting good quality food at a reasonable price during lunchtime. The only thing that bothered me was the price, despite the good service, side dishes, miso soup, and quality of the sushi.

I had some errands to run, so I searched for a nearby sushi restaurant and found this place. It took me about 10 minutes to get there from Ueno station, even though it should have only taken 5-6 minutes (lol). When I arrived around 1 pm, there was no one sitting at the counter, but there were a few people in the private room at the back. I sat down and the chef asked if I wanted nigiri sushi, to which I replied yes. I ordered: maguro akami (2 pieces), squid, yellowtail, scallop, sweet shrimp, ikura, and a few more pieces that I can't remember (lol). I also had a negitoro roll, miso soup, chawanmushi, and a small side dish. I added uni, anago, and shrimp. I was surprised by the price of the ikura, it was like the cheapest you would find at a conveyor belt sushi place. I'm not sure what grade it was, but judging by the content, it seemed like the cheapest one. With the additional orders, the total came to 4500 yen. 🧍‍♀️

The miso-marinated karasumi was exceptional, while everything else was average. The balance and texture of the sushi rice were superb, and I thought the nail seasoning was excellent. Today, the chef was fantastic. Thank you for the meal.
