"Matsuei Shibuya Scramble Square Store" is a high-end sushi restaurant with its main store in Ebisu, and this one is located on the 12th floor of Shibuya Scramble Square. It seems to be affiliated with the yakiniku chain. I had the lunch course "Kaede" for 3,520 yen. The course includes crab jelly, bonito, scallop, red snapper, toro, kanpachi, white squid, ikura, enagawa, akami, and tamago miso soup. The quality of the sushi at this price is satisfying. The shari rice is small and has a good balance with the toppings, easily melting in the mouth. The toro from Yamazuki that they source is particularly delicious. It's great that you can casually enjoy high-end sushi at a reasonable price for lunch. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal. #ShibuyaGourmet #Matsuei #ShibuyaLunch #Sushi #TokyoSushi #TokyoSushi #FoodLovers #Foodstagram #GourmetLovers #FoodPorn #Foodie #FoodieGram #FoodBlogger #FoodWriter #TokyoFood #FoodReport #FoodTravel #DeliciousIsHappiness #GourmetFriends #Foodies #GourmetClub #FoodReviewer #BGradeGourmetInformation #TokyoFoodCulture

The quality is good, but compared to the main store, the service by the part-time staff was lacking and the prices were too high. Honestly, I felt like the conveyor belt sushi had better value. It's understandable since it's located on top of the scramble, but still... However, the taste was delicious. They used fresh seafood like sea urchin and abalone, and the sushi was solid, giving a satisfying feeling of fullness. Thank you very much.

I am a southpaw lefty, so I noticed how easy it was to pick up the sushi. The sushi chef kindly placed the sushi in a way that was easy for me to pick up, as a left-handed person, and I was really touched by this thoughtfulness. It may be a small thing, but growing up as a lefty using right-handed things, these small gestures mean a lot. The sushi had a great texture and the small dishes were delicious too. I'm a lightweight, but I couldn't resist having some sake, and it really went well with the meal!

Lunch search on 6/19 in 2023. Since the weather was hot, I decided to go for sushi as it was a place I could reach directly from Shibuya Station. I had to write my name down and wait for my turn as it was lunch time, but I didn't mind waiting. After about 30 minutes, I was called to the counter seat. I ordered the "Rin" which was on the pricier side. The appetizers or small dishes before the sushi were impressive, with the flavors of the fish ingredients shining through and the seasoning being just right. The presentation was also easy to eat and enjoy the flavors. The flounder before the sushi was surprisingly bouncy and the quality of the fish was satisfying. The sushi itself had a lot of shrimp which was sweet and delicious. The miso soup had a strong red miso flavor, so the soy sauce for the sushi was lightly brushed on and served, which was nice. The tea and miso soup were served hot. The Kin-Kira sake was amazing. The ingredients, dishes, and the chef were all great.

I ordered the 11-piece keyaki course. The two small dishes of crab jelly and yuba were delicious. The sushi was also great when dipped in black vinegar instead of soy sauce, as it stayed intact and was easy to eat. Everything was delicious except for the salmon roe. The golden eye snapper, crab, scallop, and conger eel were particularly outstanding. I would like to try eating at the counter next time. The view is great and the table seats are wonderful too.

I ordered high-quality sushi from Rin and Sawaya Matsumoto this time. It included 1 serving of fresh oysters and bonito tataki, along with 8 pieces of carefully crafted sushi. The dishes were satisfying, making it a great option for a nice lunch in Shibuya.

I reserved the lunch course at a popular restaurant on the upper floor of Scramble Square. This time, I upgraded to a higher course than my last visit. It included 11 pieces of sushi, 2 small dishes, and a soup, all very luxurious. The tuna, sea urchin, crab, and eel were delicious. The quality of the other items was also very high. The small dishes had a rich broth, which was great. Sometimes, indulging in a luxurious lunch is nice.

The restaurants inside Scramble Square are very convenient, with many places having English menus and staff who can explain complicated fish dishes. From appetizers to main sushi dishes, this course almost covers all Japanese cuisine. The colorful presentation is impressive and very helpful. ❤️

I had been checking sushi restaurants around Shibuya for a while, and finally made a reservation for dinner. I ordered the Keyaki course, and the sushi and other dishes were delicious. The chef tailored the dishes to my preferences. While many sushi restaurants in the area tend to be expensive, I found the pricing to be reasonable considering the quality and service.

Having lunch in Shibuya after a long time. I felt like having Japanese food amidst the crowded restaurants during lunch time, so I decided to have lunch at the same restaurant located inside Scramble Square. I was expecting higher prices since it's located in Shibuya, on the upper floors of Scramble Square, and indeed the lunch was quite expensive. I ordered the "Keyaki" lunch menu for 4620 yen, and while waiting, I was served two appetizers first. Since I don't drink alcohol during lunch, I felt like the appetizers were unnecessary. Then, I was served 11 pieces of nigiri sushi. The freshness of the ingredients was unexpectedly high, and considering the quality of the ingredients, I don't think 4620 yen is expensive. However, when considering it as a lunch, the cost performance may be a bit tough. I just dropped by the sushi restaurant, but it was surprisingly delicious, so I might consider revisiting in the future.

I had a lunch course with 12 pieces of sushi and small dishes. The sushi was served in sets of 4 pieces each, which heightened the anticipation for each new type of sushi. The quality of the sushi in the heart of Shibuya was high, and I was satisfied with the dishes.

I had some errands in Aoyama, so I headed to Edomae Sushi Ginza Onodera for a quick meal, but it was crowded with foreign tourists, so I walked a bit and ended up at this place in Shibuya Scramble Square. It was also bustling, especially during the lunchtime rush at the end of the year. With the Bank of Japan announcing an interest rate hike, the impact of the weak yen seems to be continuing, as over 60% of the customers were foreign tourists. It felt a bit cramped for a solo lunch. [Order Course] Kaede Course - 3,520 yen [Menu] - 10 pieces of nigiri sushi + additional 2 pieces - Maguro - Maaji - Chutoro - Hotate - Shirauo - Akagai no himo - Sawara - Akami no zuke - Ikura - Toro taku nigiri (ohagi) - Hirasuzuki (additional) - Tamagoyaki - Owan - Red tea jelly [Drinks] - Aizu Nakasho Junmai Ginjo - Kamo Kinshu Junmai During my previous visit, the food was served relatively quickly and I didn't have a chance to drink alcohol, but this time, due to the full house, the pace was more relaxed and I was able to enjoy my meal while drinking. I didn't pay much attention, but the sake I ordered was exactly the same as last time. It was still disappointing that there was no label on the sake bottle, but overall, I think it was a better lunch than last time. Thank you for the meal.

In previous years, I have always set up French or Italian dinners for Christmas Eve, but this year I decided to go with a Japanese theme to avoid the high prices. It was definitely the right choice. Each dish was delicious, and I found myself getting more and more excited as I ate. The sushi was especially amazing - I wanted to savor each bite, but it disappeared so quickly into my stomach. I wish I could have eaten it forever. I definitely want to come back here again.

I was able to slide into the last seat because the sushi was running out quickly, which is unusual. My friend also said that it's busy here because the front and upstairs Tsurutontan are also crowded. The sushi was delicious, and I was able to relax and chat. It was good to have sushi.

Shibuya Scramble Square, also known as "SSS". On the 12th floor, there is a sushi restaurant called "Matsuei" offering authentic sushi for a reasonable price during lunch. The lunch menu includes the "Rin" omakase course for 7,600 yen, and the "Kagayaki" course for 13,200 yen. There is also the "Keyaki" course with 11 pieces for 4,620 yen, and the "Kaede" course with 8 pieces for 3,520 yen. This time, I tried the "Keyaki" course with 11 pieces of sushi, 2 side dishes, a soup, and dessert for 4,620 yen. At Shibuya SSS, you can choose your favorite topping for the 11th piece of sushi. First, I had two side dishes - jellyfish salad and seaweed. The jellyfish had a perfect crunchy texture, not too firm nor too soft, which was interesting. The seaweed was average. The sushi included: red snapper, amberjack, medium fatty tuna, scallop, golden eye snapper, tamago, red miso soup, white shrimp, sea urchin, marinated tuna, blackthroat seaperch, conger eel, and torotaku roll (the last customizable topping). The blackthroat seaperch was delicious anywhere you eat it. The golden eye snapper, which can vary in taste depending on the chef, was also delicious here! The torotaku roll at the end was tasty, but I think it would have been better as a regular piece of sushi. It's like experiencing high-end sushi in a mall setting. The industry jargon used in the restaurant could be toned down a bit. The restaurant is clean and located in a beautiful building. I found out that they have a main branch in Ebisu. I might visit there if I have the chance.

Matuei, a yakiniku restaurant that now has stores even in Nihonbashi and Solamachi, is a part of the Champion yakiniku chain. I remembered going to the Roppongi store regularly with two male colleagues in my early twenties, so I visited the Scramble Square store for lunch. Unlike the Roppongi store, it is located in the food area of Scramble Square, so it has a casual atmosphere suitable for everyday use rather than dates or entertaining. [Order Course] Keyaki 4,620 yen [Menu Contents] - 2 appetizers: Naruto wakame, Fugu skin with ankimo ponzu - 10 pieces of nigiri sushi + 1 choice + 2 additional pieces: Madai, Maki hachi, Madai, Hotate, Uni, Kuruma ebi, Toro, Tokishirazu (forgot to take a picture), Nodoguro, Hirame *Choice: Anago, Akagai *Additional: Toro taku nigiri (ohagi) - 3 other dishes: Tamagoyaki, Owan, Homemade warabi mochi - Alcohol: Aizuchusho Junmai Ginjo, Kamo Kinshu Junmai The lunch course is served relatively quickly, so it may not be suitable for those who want to leisurely savor it while drinking. The nigiri sushi is softly packed, so the shari melts in your mouth as soon as you put it in, which is good, but the pieces are a bit small and the fish is thinly sliced, so it felt a bit lacking. However, the Toro from Shiogama, sourced from "Yamayuki," was delicious. It was a bit disappointing that the label of the sake was not provided as well.

Sushi Sushi... I had a sudden craving for sushi, so I decided to come to Shibuya. I didn't have a familiar restaurant in mind, and I couldn't recall eating sushi in Shibuya before, so I wandered around as usual. Today, let's have sushi here! The restaurant looks nice, and it's not too crowded during lunchtime. I was seated at a table instead of the counter, where it seemed like reservations or regular customers were seated. I ordered the lunch menu, called "Keyaki." The sushi and side dishes arrived: seaweed salad, blowfish skin with ponzu sauce, various sushi pieces, egg omelet, and dessert of bracken-starch dumpling. The sushi was delicious, and I couldn't help but eat it all up. The flavors seemed well-aged, and the freshness was good. However, the service felt a bit robotic, with plates being cleared promptly. The atmosphere wasn't very cozy, making it slightly uncomfortable for new customers. But I still enjoy the interaction with the sushi chef at the counter, discussing recommendations and enjoying the sushi. I should find a familiar sushi restaurant in Shibuya next time I visit Tokyo. Thank you for the meal!

I researched and entered a restaurant in Shibuya to have Edo-style sushi for lunch. The building was new, and the interior was very bright, clean, and beautiful. I ordered the Keyaki set with 11 pieces of sushi for 4620 yen. Below are the two dishes that came out first in no particular order: Yuba (tofu skin) and squid, sea bream, scallop sashimi - thick and satisfying, beautifully cut, rich and delicious! Bonito - excellent in appearance and taste, medium fatty tuna - the best today, rich in flavor, concentrated, sweet shrimp - very juicy with thick flesh, sea urchin and fatty tuna hand-rolled sushi - delicious even without seaweed! Seared throat blackfish - perfect searing, flounder (one choice) eel - a bit lacking, dessert - homemade bracken rice cake. Personally, I found the rice to be slightly warm. Is this how Matsuei does it? Also, the last piece of sushi is important. Overall, it was delicious. The last part was a bit disappointing.

I went for lunch before, but I was wondering about dinner. The cost performance is excellent, the sushi at this price is unbeatable. After the course, you can have 10 pieces of your choice, three beers, and one glass of wine. Very satisfying. The white was incredibly delicious, but I wonder if they also have red? The fatty tuna, gizzard shad, and blackthroat seaperch were delicious.

Visited for a solo lunch. The meal included squid, yellowtail, horse mackerel, medium fatty tuna, white shrimp, turban shell, marinated tuna, salmon roe, egg, miso soup, and dessert. It was delicious! The restaurant was beautiful and the service was very pleasant and professional. The portion size was small for the price, similar to sushi prices in the city, but the quality of the fish and rice was high, so it was acceptable. Thank you for the meal!
