🇺🇸 Philly Japanese Food | Sweet Uni & Tuna That Made My Day! 🥢

I don’t often eat Japanese food in Philly, but recently I struck gold — not once, but twice! ✨ Here are two great spots for sushi and sashimi lovers. Both offer omakase (reserve ahead), but I went à la carte to try exactly what I craved 😌 🎐 Shiso Noodle and Sushi Bar 🍣 Tuna Tasting – A must-order! You get three cuts: otoro, chutoro, and akami — beautifully marbled, rich, and only $35! Way better than their A5 Wagyu ($65), which came with a few bok choy leaves 😅 🦪 Fresh Oysters – Delicious starter! 🌊 Uni – Sweet, fresh, and creamy. 🎎 Premium Chef’s Choice Sushi – 9 pieces (or 18 for two). We ordered almost everything we wanted and spent around $150 per person — almost omakase-level, but so worth it! 🎐 Royal Sushi & Izakaya A popular izakaya-style spot with moody lighting. We went with 5 people and tried almost the whole menu! ✅ Wagyu Zabuton Steak – Tender and flavorful. 🐟 Sashimi Deluxe – Fresh and beautifully presented. 🦆 Duck Dish – Surprisingly delicious! 🍚 Uni Rice Bowl – A creamy, dreamy bowl of joy. 💡 Walk-in only for the izakaya. Omakase is $300 per person (including service fee) — a luxurious experience! With a group, you can enjoy a full meal for around $60–70 per person. #StudyAbroadLife #FoodieNoCompromise #UniLover #YakitoriFan #Omakase #JapaneseFood #PhillyEats #InternationalStudentEats #ChineseFriendlyFood #ImmersiveDining
