Today, I met my childhood friend in Ginza after 8 years. I made a reservation here for our dinner. It had been so long that there was a bit of tension between us, but not enough to make us nervous. The restaurant was located on the basement floor in Ginza, and I felt a bit uneasy going down the stairs, but the smile of the proprietress welcomed us, and I felt relieved. As we sat in the sunken hearth, any tension with my childhood friend disappeared, and the joy of reuniting after a long time was overwhelming. We ordered the course menu and toasted with highballs. We were amazed by the dishes brought to us while sharing old stories and catching up on each other's lives. Although we were in a private room, the proprietress took care of us, and we never ran out of drinks, which was very helpful. I felt her thoughtfulness. The course menu included: [Appetizer] - Ume Somen (plum noodles) - Mozuku and Tororo (seaweed and grated yam) [Appetizer] - Cheek Tomato - Shikomi Zucchini - Gobo Yawata Maki (burdock roll) - Edamame - Moroheiya ohitashi (Japanese spinach salad) [Sashimi] - Assorted sashimi [Grilled Dish] - Grilled swordfish [Simmered Dish] - Simmered conger eel and matsutake mushroom [Vinegar Dish] - Uzaku (vinegared dish) [Fried Dish] - Beef cutlet and sea urchin [Rice Dish] - Corn mixed rice with miso soup and pickles [Dessert] - Mango pudding Every dish was truly wonderful. From the appetizer to the dessert, each dish was carefully prepared with flavors that touched the heart. Through the taste of each dish, I could understand how tired and dry my heart had been. Like how the dry heart regains moisture, the deliciousness reached my heart through my taste buds, making me feel warm inside. It made me feel like I could do my best starting from tomorrow. It was a special and meaningful time. Thank you for the feast. Thank you for the special time. Thanks to you, the reunion was truly wonderful.

Today, I visited Ginza Izumi in Chuo-ku, Tokyo. It is located just a 3-minute walk from Ginza, at the intersection of Koshu-do Street and Namiki Street, next to a building where Loewe is located on the first floor. The restaurant has both table seating and a shoe-free seating area in a long and beautiful interior. I started with a toast with a draft beer and enjoyed the recommended Yoshinogawa cold sake. [Appetizer] - Mushroom and chrysanthemum leaf in broth - Uni and cream cheese tofu topped with sea urchin [First Course] - Persimmon with white sesame dressing - Mini tomato simmered in Koshu style - Sweetfish simmered in Arima style - Scallop grilled with sea urchin - Zucchini wrapped in ham and deep-fried in breadcrumbs [Sashimi] - Assorted sashimi with Botan shrimp, striped jack, and surf clam [Grilled Dish] - Lean steak of domestic beef [Simmered Dish] - Conger eel and matsutake mushroom in a clay pot [Steamed Dish] - Steamed egg custard with snow crab and avocado [Deep-fried Dish] - Almond-fried beltfish [Main Dish] - Rice with grilled barracuda [Dessert] - Mocha Bavarois Ginza Izumi has an average Google rating of over 4.4, reflecting its high level of traditional Japanese cuisine. The skills of the head chef and the attentive service of the restaurant manager are exceptional. The bright and clean white wood interior, along with the excellent service from the manager, made for a satisfying dining experience. I will definitely visit again. Thank you for a wonderful meal.

We made a reservation for two on a weekday night and visited for the first time. The restaurant is located very close to Ginza Station, in a great location. The underground interior is very stylish with a Japanese theme. There are beautiful counter and table seats, as well as private rooms. There were several other customers, but we enjoyed our meal in a private room that day. The course menu ranges from 9,000 yen to 25,000 yen, but we ordered the 13,000 yen course that day. Each dish featured seasonal ingredients and showcased the meticulous work of Japanese cuisine. Everything was delicious, so I'll comment on a few dishes. The appetizer and first course truly reflected Japanese cuisine. The mozuku tororo salad was beautifully cut, which was a new experience for me. The unique texture and elegant flavor were delightful, and the health benefits were a plus. The cucumber somen noodles were refreshing and perfect for hot summer days. The colorful first course was visually appealing and each dish was exquisite! In particular, the tomato with sake lees and cheese oozing out from the inside, and the mysterious texture of the conger eel roe jelly were my favorites. The other dishes were also delicious and made me crave more drinks. The Kamo eggplant and yuba gratin, made with Kyoto's traditional vegetables in season, was a hot and creamy delight! The conger eel simmered with grated radish had large pieces of eel and a delicious broth with seasonal vegetables. The truffle beef cutlet had a wonderful truffle aroma from the moment it was served! The meat was tender and flavorful, and the delicious somen noodles were a great touch for summer. The mango pudding dessert had a rich mango flavor with plenty of fruit inside, it was amazing. The entire course featured seasonal ingredients and made me appreciate Japanese cuisine even more. It's a restaurant I'd like to visit again for a date, anniversary, or business dinner. I definitely want to visit again.

A colleague who I haven't been able to meet up with for a while due to conflicting schedules requested a visit to a restaurant where we can truly savor the food, so we went to "Ginza Izumi" before the Bon holidays. As usual, we opted for the chef's choice menu. Surprisingly, two other groups canceled their reservations, so we ended up having the whole restaurant to ourselves. It felt a bit awkward because our conversations could be heard clearly without other customers around, but we took it as a lucky opportunity and chatted loudly. I have a summer cold and my throat isn't feeling great, so I decided to enjoy the food and sake slowly today. The first dishes were a cold corn soup and gold thread gourd, both with delicate flavors. The corn soup here is especially amazing. Next was a beautifully arranged assortment of small dishes. Inside the husk cherry was a sweet tomato surprise. Then came the sashimi of bonito and flounder, with a special sesame oil and salt seasoning, both with refined flavors. The highlight was the main dish, steak with sea urchin on top, made with luxurious ingredients and incredibly delicious. Feeling full, we enjoyed the eel with sauce and winter melon, and the sea bream with jelly, which were gentle on the stomach. Lastly, we had fried sardines with plum sauce, a perfect combination for summer. Once again, thank you for the delicious and elaborate dishes and sake. My companion was also very pleased and requested to come back. "Ginza Izumi" is a rare gem where you can enjoy delicious food and sake at your own pace without any worries. I will definitely visit again. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

I had a course meal in a private room. It was nice to enjoy a leisurely Japanese meal in a beautiful and calm atmosphere typical of Ginza. The selection of Japanese sake was excellent and I was recommended some rare ones. The dishes I had were: Mozuku and tororo (seaweed and grated yam) dish, cucumber somen (noodles), hoozuki tomato, stuffed zucchini, burdock roll, edamame, moroheiya (mallow) ohitashi (boiled dish), assorted sashimi, Kamo eggplant and yuba (tofu skin) gratin, conger eel with grated radish, udon noodles with toppings, beef cutlet with sea urchin, somen noodles, and mango pudding.

This time, I visited a restaurant located on the basement floor of a building near Shimbashi Station, Yurakucho Station, or Ginza Station. It may be a bit hard to find at first glance, but it's worth the search. The restaurant is open from 6:00 pm to 11:00 pm, but they may be flexible with the opening time. The underground entrance leads to a beautifully designed interior with a counter, table seating, and private rooms. I made a reservation and was guided to a spacious private room. The staff was friendly and recommended some dishes, so I ordered a variety of items from the menu. The food was delicious, especially the oysters and corn dish. The staff provided clear recommendations and the experience was enjoyable. Overall, the restaurant offers a wide range of dishes and a pleasant dining atmosphere.

Hello, I found a perfect restaurant for entertaining, dating, or showing filial piety! This is Gurumani! Sometimes you crave authentic Japanese cuisine! It's just a 5-minute walk from Shinbashi or Ginza, so convenient, and the underground location gives it a hidden gem feel! The interior, with its wooden counter, exudes a high level of sophistication! Today, I had a course meal in a private room! The variety of drinks is intriguing! And smokers can enjoy smoking inside, which is a big plus for them! Let's dig in! The first dish, chilled corn with appetizer, was genius! The crunchy and cool texture made me forget the summer heat from the first bite! The black pepper added another layer of flavor! The winter melon shrimp mince appetizer was delightful, with the winter melon being crunchy and the shrimp being refined. I finished it in no time, it was that good! The appetizer with oyster and beef roll felt like a light rain dish! The okra wrapped inside made me feel like summer again! The myoga sushi, a favorite of mine, had a crunchy texture and the saltiness of caviar was irresistible! The fig with sesame cream was delicious! I love figs! It reminded me of my pastry chef days when I used figs a lot in making cakes! The umaki was undeniably delicious! The fluffy egg roll with eel inside and that sauce was just amazing! The jelly mix of herring roe was a first for me! What even is herring roe? The bouncy texture and soft jelly were a new experience, and it was so smooth! The sashimi platter was top-notch! The cucumber was so stylish, and I love shiso leaves, so this was perfect for me! The tataki grilled swordfish with sudachi and tomato jelly inside was adorable! It looked like watermelon, and the winter melon was crunchy and delicious! The fluffy swordfish with crunchy leeks inside was irresistible! The braised pork belly was superb! The thick and tender seasoning was just right! And the eggplant in the back was also amazing! I wish they would serve this as a rice bowl for lunch! The vinegar dish with oyster and sea urchin was impressive! Isn't it amazing to have persimmons in a vinegar dish? And the sea urchin piled on top of the oyster was incredible! The oyster was so creamy and rich! The fried ayu spring roll was too cool, right? And delicate too, right? The spring roll had finely chopped cucumbers hidden inside, so the crispy spring roll skin, the fluffy ayu, and the crunchy cucumbers combined were just perfect! The ayu rice cracker was also amazing, and I think the sauce at the bottom is made of knotweed. Ayu goes well with knotweed, right? Knotweed is a bit unpleasant to eat alone, but when combined with ayu, it's really delicious! The grilled flounder with chilled tea pickles was fantastic! I couldn't pronounce flounder for a long time, and then I found out it's pronounced "kochi"! The bouncy texture, chilled tea pickles, and the flounder were a perfect match!

I wanted to treat myself to something luxurious in the Ginza area for the first time in a while, so I visited "Ginza Izumi" here. It is located just a 3-minute walk from Ginza Station, across from the Louis Vuitton building. Going down the dim staircase to the basement, you will find a dazzling and elegant space. This hidden gem feeling is nice! It has a sense of being a well-known fine dining establishment. This time, I made a reservation for the 13,000 yen course. They also offer more affordable courses and high-end courses using luxury ingredients such as turtle. I've never had turtle before, so I'd like to try it someday. The restaurant has a layout of a counter, table seats, and a tatami area where you take off your shoes. It seems like a place where you can have a leisurely conversation. The course I had included the following: - Cold corn soup with winter melon and shrimp paste - 5 types of appetizers - 4 types of sashimi (queen fish, conger eel, barracuda, tuna) - Grilled beltfish - Braised pork belly - Oyster and sea urchin - Sweetfish spring roll with knotweed sauce - Grilled flounder with chilled tea-soaked rice - Muscat sherbet, water shingen mochi I enjoyed a variety of exquisite dishes focusing on seafood. It was nice to have the dishes explained to me and how to eat them. The course had a refreshing and light taste, perfect for the hot summer, and I was completely satisfied both in my stomach and heart! I will introduce in detail the three most delicious dishes! - Cold corn soup As an appetizer, they served a cold soup made with corn. The gentle sweetness of the corn permeates your body. The charred corn adds a crispy texture, and the caviar on top adds a touch of luxury. It's a perfect appetizer that heightens your expectations for the upcoming dishes. - Oyster and sea urchin No need for explanation for this delicious dish. The fresh and plump raw oyster topped with sea urchin, squeezed lemon, or ponzu sauce was delightful. Enjoy the perfect combination of sea urchin and oyster to the fullest. - Sweetfish spring roll with knotweed sauce A rare spring roll made with a whole sweetfish. The plump and juicy sweetfish with the accent of myoga is a perfect match. It was a spring roll like no other I have ever tasted. Instead of basil sauce, it is served with a sweet and sour knotweed sauce. A Japanese twist! We enjoyed every part of the sweetfish, including the head and tail. I finished the dessert in no time! If you're in Ginza, be sure to visit~

Between Ginza and Shinbashi. I walked from Shinbashi. If you walk along Namiki Street, you'll find it ◎ Going down the dim staircase, there's a landing with lights. Nice~♡ Exciting~♡ The counter has 8 seats. There are private rooms with table seats. Visited with mom friends from my daughter's nursery days♪ The seasonal course for July 2023 is like this ✩ ○ 13000 yen course ○ ⚪︎ Appetizer: Cold corn, winter melon shrimp soboro with sweet pouring sauce. The cold and gentle soboro sauce is perfect for warming up the stomach! Let's start with a beer ✩ ⚪︎ Appetizers: Okra beef rolls, fig sesame cream, cod roe jelly, myoga sushi, a gorgeous assortment. Here comes the lineup that sake lovers drool over. The drink I ordered here is a softshell turtle lemon sour for ¥1300. You must be curious about the softshell turtle. It smelled like fresh blood...! You can even see blood clots...! It seems invigorating. ⚪︎ Sashimi: Otoro, sea bass, sea urchin, conger eel. The quality of the sea urchin is amazing! So delicious~ tears. Sweet and plentiful. Too luxurious... All the fish were wonderful! At this point, I couldn't resist and ordered sake!! I asked for a recommendation and what came was Ocean 99, an airport-inspired sake from Choshi Beach! It's so refreshing. A sake with a smooth taste that is very popular among women, I drink it down easily lol ⚪︎ Grilled dish: Beltfish Naruto style. Wow, it's cute! The dish screams summer ♡ The hairtail is fluffy~♡ How delicious~! Squeeze some lemon for a refreshing taste! This is the type of dish that goes well with sake. Switching to a fruity sake, the drinking pace soared, and I suddenly started having fun lol ⚪︎ Simmered dish: Braised pork belly. Sweet and rich. With Chinese-style seasoning, this also goes well with sake! I felt like going to Taiwan again. lol The presentation is top-notch. Presentation is important. ◎ Vinegared dish: With rock oyster. The generous amount of condiments gives a luxurious hospitality feel. The thick and milky texture of the oyster... the best...!! I love eating only the best part of the oyster. ⚪︎ Fried dish: Ayu spring rolls with tade sauce, refreshing~♡ Cucumber and ginger are in it...! Refreshing. The bone crackers are delicious~. The oil is quite soaked, yes, this is what a drinker wants for the second half of the game. Switching to a refreshing lemon sour, I enjoyed it to the fullest! ♡ ◎ Meal: Grilled kochi over cold tea-soaked rice. It's tightly packed with flavor. Cold and salty broth. So happy with the generous condiments. This is also a great snack. I'm so happy with the plenty of broth! ⚪︎ Dessert: Lemon sherbet, mizu shingen mochi. A sweet ending that enhances the satisfaction even more after a tight finish with tea-soaked rice. Refreshing. Beautiful until the end! I didn't even feel a millimeter of desire for ramen as a closer. This is quite rare for me. lol The head chef and the hall staff work together. The shy head chef doesn't show himself at all, disappearing quickly even when you feel his gaze. The beautiful and thoughtful presentation of the dishes. The hall staff were very pleasant throughout! They care about you, talk to you, and maintain a perfect distance. It was great chatting with other guests in the private rooms. It seems tough for the two of them to handle everything, but their hospitality is top-notch. Having a great time chatting with mom friends over delicious food, feeling comfortable and before I knew it, it was 3 hours...!!! Wow, sorry. But it was amazing~♡

I was invited and visited Ginzasa Izumi for the first time! Located about a 10-minute walk from Ginza and Shimbashi, they offer a variety of dishes from a la carte to course menus. The course prices are quite reasonable at 9000 yen, 13000 yen, and 16000 yen for a location in Ginza. The restaurant has counter seats, tables, and private rooms, suitable for various occasions such as business meals, dates, and regular visits. This time, I tried the 13000 yen course, which included: - Appetizer - Corn cold dish - Winter melon and shrimp sauce - Appetizers - Okra beef roll - Fig with sesame cream - Conger eel roe jelly - Myoga sushi - Umaki - Sashimi - Assorted sashimi - Grilled dish - Beltfish grilled with salt - Simmered dish - Braised pork belly - Vinegared dish - Fresh oyster - Fried dish - Fried ayu spring roll - Rice dish - Grilled flounder chilled ochazuke - Dessert - Shine Muscat sherbet - Mizu Shingen Mochi Overall, the course had a great balance of flavors and portion sizes. The corn cold dish was particularly delicious, and the myoga sushi was surprisingly tasty. The sashimi assortment was fresh and the sea urchin was sweet. The conger eel was tender and flavorful, and the braised pork belly, fresh oyster, and fried ayu spring roll were all delicious. The chilled ochazuke with grilled flounder was a perfect way to end the meal. The dessert of Shine Muscat sherbet and Mizu Shingen Mochi was also delightful. The service was excellent, and my companion and I were very satisfied with the experience. I look forward to visiting again in a different season! Thank you for the wonderful meal!

This week was my second visit in a row♪ I finally got to fulfill the promise of taking my old friends from school to "Ginza Izumi" after not being able to go due to the pandemic. As usual, we left it to the chef, and even though it was my second visit in three days, there was no repetition in the menu. First, we had the "Winter Melon with Shrimp Mince Sauce," a refreshing and gentle dish perfect for a hot summer day♪ Then came the "Appetizers" with whelk, broad beans, conger sushi, conger vinegar dish, and boiled summer vegetables, all intricately prepared and delicious. Next, we had a "Sashimi platter" with conger eel, sea bass, sea urchin, and tuna. The grilled dish was "Grilled Ayu Fish" served on a large plate, beautifully presented. The "Red Snapper with Sauce" had an elegant flavor. Then, my favorite, the "Rock Oysters," disappeared before I could even comment (laughs). Lastly, we had tempura of conger eel… Thank you for the delicate and delicious Japanese cuisine artworks once again. I will visit again, so please take care until then. Thank you for the meal♪

The company members requested to eat delicious Japanese food at an elegant restaurant, so I made a reservation for 7 people at "Ginza Izumi" and brought them there. We used a private room for 8 people. Everyone was a bit nervous as they didn't have much experience with authentic Japanese restaurants, but as time passed, they relaxed and enjoyed the food and drinks. The highlights of today's meal were the "Cold Corn Soup" and "Fried Ayu Fish and Bones", which were incredibly delicious. The fried ayu bones were crispy all the way to the head, with no fishy smell, and had a perfect balance of bitterness and a fragrant aroma. We were grateful for the variety of sake provided as part of the omakase selection. Everyone was very satisfied and ended up talking a lot due to drinking too much before heading home. Thank you, Chef Otake, for always providing us with delicious and heartfelt Japanese cuisine. We will visit again. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

The Japanese cuisine in Ginza at this price is very reasonable!

It had been a while since I visited Ginza, and it was bustling with tourists, indicating the end of the COVID-19 pandemic. This lively cityscape was a refreshing sight, especially for the restaurants. I visited Ginza Izumi, a Japanese restaurant located underground, with a friend. The restaurant had 4 tables for 4 people, 1 table for 2, and a 7-seat counter, along with private rooms. The spacious interior and the relaxed atmosphere, coupled with excellent service, raised our expectations for the food. We ordered the above-mentioned course, and I will review the most impressive dishes: - Grilled Isaki with Sesame Salt: The juicy Isaki fish with a fragrant aroma was perfectly complemented by the sourness of sudachi and the sweet pickled Myoga. The presentation of the Isaki in a swirling shape was surprising and visually appealing. - Yuba and Fresh Ginger Porridge: The gentle flavors of this dish, paired with the separate dishes of green onions and pepper, enhanced the overall taste. The rich pickles and simmered fish added depth to the dish, making it a delightful and satisfying meal. Overall, it was a delightful experience indulging in traditional Japanese cuisine.

I visited on a Saturday night. When I went down to the basement floor, the staff welcomed me. There were counter seats, but this time I was seated at a table. First, cheers. I can't drink alcohol, so I ordered a light plum wine soda. I also had some oolong tea. I ordered the 13,000 yen course meal. Appetizer: Grilled conger eel with red turnip jelly, clams in cold sauce with olives, salmon and egg sushi, water eggplant with sansho pepper, asparagus with sake lees, seaweed vinegar, and Chinese-style cockle.

I have been using a shop that was relocated from Suitengu Shrine, and due to the coronavirus pandemic, I couldn't visit them for a while. However, I have been frequenting them recently. Not only is the sashimi and dishes delicious, but they also have a wide variety of sake, allowing you to choose and enjoy sake that pairs well with the food. They even have something called Okinawa Pine Sapporo, so if you are interested, please give it a try. The rock oysters, salt-grilled sweetfish, sesame tofu with moistened vegetables, and Okinawa Pine Sapporo spring rolls were all very delicious. I will continue to visit and enjoy their delicious sake. Thank you for the feast. I will visit again.

Our business partner reserved a private room for us, so we were able to have a quiet conversation compared to the open seating area. The first appetizer platter was a bit salty, but it was probably due to being rushed to prepare it. After that, the sashimi, meat dishes, and the hamo dish were all elegantly presented and did not disrupt our conversation.

Restaurant Name: Ginza Izumi Location: Ginza Cuisine: Japanese Cuisine, Turtle Cuisine Located in the bustling center of Ginza, surrounded by high-end restaurants, this restaurant is a hidden gem. Whether you come from Shinbashi or Yurakucho by JR, the distance is about the same. The interior of the restaurant has counter seats, table seats, and private tatami rooms, creating a calm and relaxing atmosphere. Surprisingly for a Japanese restaurant, smoking is allowed. We were seated at a table and discovered a unique drink on the menu called "Turtle Lemon Sour." We were told it was a lemon sour with fresh turtle blood, so we decided to try it. Cheers with the Turtle Lemon Sour! The drink had a reddish color due to the blood, but the taste was surprisingly delicious, with the blood barely noticeable. It was a unique drink that complemented the turtle cuisine served at the restaurant. We ordered the 13,000 yen course, which included a variety of dishes such as appetizers, sashimi, grilled fish, simmered dishes, fried dishes, and dessert. Each dish was beautifully presented and made with fresh ingredients. During the meal, we also enjoyed some Japanese sake, including Kuro Ryu and Yoshinogawa. The sake selection was extensive and impressive. Overall, the sashimi and the fried tofu with dashi broth were particularly outstanding. Every dish was not only delicious but also visually appealing. It was a delightful experience to enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine after a long time.
