Still as good as 3 years ago!

Mar 2023 • none

When Japan announced borders were opening up, I knew I had to come back. I wanted to try a Michelin starred Omakase this time around. But, everything was either booked or too pricey. Right then and there, I knew I had to go back to Shinjuku Makoto. We arrived 5 minutes early to our reservation made online to a fairly packed night this time around, but was seated quickly at the counter. there were 4 other people at the counter with us with tables packed behind us. They were EXTREMELY busy this night. the 2 sushi chefs did not stop for a second the whole night! of course, this did make our wait for our food a little longer than normal but I'm not complaining. You get to see the precision, speed, and accuracy of their craft. we went with the Seasonal Delicacies Dinner course which came to around 100 dollars a person. Every piece was perfect and tasted exactly as I remembered it on my first visit. The staff were very friendly and attentive. If you want to try amazing sushi without having to pay Michelin star money, This is the place to go!

Very good sushi

Nov 2022 • family

I didn’t make reservation earlier enough for dine in. Since I stay in the hotel closed by, I decided to order take out. I think I did a good choice since the quality of the sushi is excellent. The toro and uni is so good. I think the food will taste better if I have in dine in but the food is still good with take out. This restaurant is highly recommended especially if you would like to have last minute sushi take out around the Shinjuku area.

Great sushi with a smile!

Apr 2023 • couples

This was a fun and flavorful sushi experience. The chef modified the 10 piece meal to accommodate my wife’s and my differing preferences for a couple of fish. Also had a good selection of Japanese whiskey and sakes. An enjoyable experience.

Super Sushi in Shinjuku

Mar 2023 • friends

Found this place looking for ‘best sushi near me.’ A group of 4 of us strolled down around 1930 on a Friday evening, it was packed, and it’s not big a big place. We went in and were asked if we had a reservation.. we didn’t but after some chat between the staff & chef we were shown the last table they had and offered the fixed 7 or 9 course tasting menu… we all opted for the 7 courses and it was AMAZING! The staff were attentive, and the chef was a star. If you’re looking for sushi in Shinjuku go here, you will not be disappointed. Who knew a Sea Urchin could taste so good!

Topissime: not to be missed

Nov 2023 • family

Excellent sushi restaurant. The setting is very nice, the food is extraordinary (without exaggerating) and above all the staff is really attentive and caring. Rather international clientele. Two tips: try to get a table at the bar and don't forget to confirm your reservation by email.

Amazing quality.

Nov 2024 • business

Perfect fish. Great staff. Ultra fast and the choice of omakase menus (large or medium) was a great solution for us. We chose the medium menu which was only sushi and it was the perfect amount of food.

Amazing sushi dinner

Jan 2020 • couples

Visited Makoto Sushi in Nishi-Shinjuku for dinner in January 2020. Makoto Sushi has a few locations in Tokyo. This Shinjuku one we tried was amazing! The chef has been at this location for last 4 years. Wait staff were very friendly and service was prompt. We chose Omakase, 8,000 yen/ person course. Appetizers came quickly and we moved on to sushi. Every was very tasty. One of, if not, the best sushi dinning experience I’ve ever had. Highly recommend.

Fantastic sushi, light-hearted athmosphere

Oct 2024 • solo

Oishii! High quality sushi and the chef makes it into eye candy. I especially enjoyed the tuna. The athmosphere is light-hearted and foreigner-friendly (fluent English, which is rare) and contrary to what one reviewer wrote you can come here solo, at least if you come outside busy hours. I will revisit the next time I come to Tokyo.

MUST VISIT

Nov 2024 • couples

This place is a hidden gem! In a great location, just off the main street. We went for the premier set meal which was incredible. We left feeling super full and happy. The food was INSANE. The chef was incredible and I was mesmerised by how he worked. The staff could all speak English, one waiter’s English was absolutely fantastic. He explained the dishes and was super attentive. MUST VISIT!!!!

Spectacular sushi!

The best sushi we’ve ever had. The scallop melts in your mouth. We loved sitting at the counter, watching the sushi chef prepare each piece. What a show! Highly recommended. And English is spoken here,.

Cute shop, sadly the menu outside says a la carte, but they refuse to do it, they also will not seat parties of one, only parties of two.

First Omakase experience!

Jan 2020 • none

Me and my Girlfriend went to Japan in January 2020 and i wanted to have a really good sushi experience for this trip and i was blown away by how good this place was! The staff were very welcoming and also explained each piece to us in english as they were made(my favourites were the Chu-toro, Hamachi, and Uni). I would definitely recommend this place to any person coming to Tokyo and wants a really good sushi experience! I will definitely come back next year!
