🍣 Philadelphia｜This Chirashi Bowl at Izakaya Is Insane!

Wanted to try their Omakase but couldn’t get a reservation 🙃 So we walked in early at 5:30 PM — got seated after a short wait, pretty lucky! We ordered the Royal Chirashi, and when it arrived — the portion was jaw-dropping! So much going on, didn’t know where to start. Inside: 1️⃣ Salmon, tuna, white fish, scallops, squid, sweet shrimp – thick-cut, super fresh (some of the freshest sashimi in Philly! Though the white fish had a slight fishy note) 2️⃣ Uni (sea urchin) – generous amount, noticeably sweet Ikura (salmon roe) – perfectly salty, amazing with rice (tons of it!) 3️⃣ Tamago (egg omelet) – soft, slightly sweet, surprisingly delicious 4️⃣ Osetra Caviar – yes, actual caviar, and plenty of it! 5️⃣ Sushi rice at the bottom – well-seasoned, slightly tangy Overall: visually extravagant, flavor-wise solid. If you can’t snag an Omakase spot, this bowl won’t disappoint. $160, and two of us couldn’t finish it 🤷. (P.S. Their potato salad is also amazing!) 📍 Royal Sushi & Izakaya (Philadelphia) ⏰ Tip: Try walking in around 5:30 PM for a better chance at seating 🍣 Must-order: Royal Chirashi #PhillyEats #ChirashiBowl #IzakayaPhilly #JapaneseFood #SashimiLover #FreshFish
