鮨 からす 梅田店 — Restaurant in Osaka

Ordered the Kiwami course meal. The meal is advertised as 13 types of sushi, but I counted 22 dishes in total. The meal was served over 1.5 hours so it did not feel rushed. The restaurant does not sit many guests, so the chef gives each guest his undivided attention. It is clear that he is serious about his craft but also cracks jokes to lighten the atmosphere. Definitely the best omakase experience I have had in Japan. The quality was consistently exceptional throughout the dinner, but the scallop sushi and grilled shrimp head stood out as my favorite. The squid ink sushi rice is also unique and delicious. Worthy of a special occasion, we will visit again...

Charming, delicious, cozy sushi spot near Umeda station. It is very easy to get to, although it may be confusing to find on google maps if you’re a illiterate tourist like us. The restaurant was very responsive to email however!

This was our first real sushi spot in Japan, so maybe others out there are even better. However compared to US omakases this was just as good if not fresher for 1/3 to 1/4 the cost. The chef seemed very serious at first but was quite funny actually and friendly, even with our very limited Japanese.

Would highly recommend if you’re...

Really good food. The chef and the assistant are both so friendly. We had 2 young children with us so they were a bit loud. The staff still tried to keep the experience pleasant for us. We also had language barrier, but the staff tried their best to communicate with us and introduce the menu. Speak of the food, it’s plenty for my family. We enjoyed the fresh fish and how the chef matching each ingredient with the proper type of rice. I highly recommend whoever visits Osaka to make a reservation with this restaurant cause it’s just so...
