5 Japanese Restaurants in Boston 🍣

Personal foodie experience | For reference only 1️⃣ Youji Washoku ❤️❤️❤️❤️ 💰 $100-300 ✨ Current TOP1! Sushi has incredibly rich seasoning layers, very creative 🍶 Few but exquisite appetizers, each one amazing ⚠️ Basic environment, service slow enough to make you doze off 😪 2️⃣ 311 ❤️❤️❤️❤️ 💰 ~$400 per person 🐟 Excellent fish quality, appetizers are Boston's best 👑 🍚 But sushi seriously drags behind, rice and fish don't harmonize 💔 Experience feels like a rollercoaster ride 🎢 3️⃣ Wa Shin ❤️❤️❤️❤️ 💰 ~$200+ per person ✨ Higher sushi completion, perfect harmony between rice and fish 🌊 Ingredients slightly less fresh than 311 but great value 🏮 Excellent ambiance and service, best overall experience 👍 4️⃣ Yoshida Omakase ❤️❤️ 💰 ~$400 per person 🍬 Appetizers overly sweet, actually highlights fishy taste 🤢 ⏳ Dining rhythm disaster: sat for 20 minutes, skipped 4 sushi pieces 🍣 Make-up service perfunctory, cold service, dessert overly sweet 🍯 5️⃣ Uni ❤️❤️ 💰 Classic fusion Japanese 🌏 Western-leaning flavors, innovative but not memorable ✅ Safe choice, wouldn't actively return —————————————————— 🍱 Foodie Summary: Best value → Wa Shin 💫 Best appetizers → 311 🍶 Most innovative → Youji Washoku 🌈 #BostonJapaneseFood #FoodReview #FoodieLife #BostonEats #Omakase
