Tsukiji Sushisei - Ginza 4 Chome — Restaurant in Tokyo

Sushi was tasty and good price. But services was terrible especially one Waitress. Probably the rudest person I have ever experienced in all restaurant experience. We come here with our 1 year old and ask for 3 seats. And we were waiting for over 15 minutes . And they offered us a 2 seats. But the seats is extremely small. Impossible to seat with our baby. Even with her in the sling and on the lap. We try our best to manage and make it happen. My husband had to make the chair slightly away from the counter. So our baby wouldn’t able to grab the dishes or grab the person next to it. As the baby had to be in the sling as we only have a 2 seats. And the waitress was so rude and come over and push our chair into the counter. Even she had plenty of space walk around in the between. So this made it impossible for us to seat down and eat. We would have left. But we already ordered food. So me and my husband decide to take turns. So one person eat. And another person seat by the inside door with our baby. So we don’t brother other people dinning experience

It was very stressful and my husband took the beer to sit by the door with our baby. While I eat quickly. The crude waitress immediately come over and grab the beer away from my husband hand and ask my husband go back to the counter to eat. Is she blind or something? Can she not see we are not seating by the door as a choice ?

She might be never had children in her life. It’s the rudeness way to interact with a parents. Was so horrible experience. We were already under alot of stress and by her behaviour like this. It made it worse.

Anyway. It was difficult to know the space for restaurants like this. Even when there were plenty of 3 people seating Available afterwards. No body offered these tables for us. As we don’t speak Japanese. So it was very hard to navigate as well.

If you have child. Don’t come here....

One of those unexpected moments that turned out great cuz we took a chance

We were looking for a place to eat after shopping when we walked past this building. Very nondescript against all the bright and shiny luxury shops.

But we first saw the ad on what we were familiar with - Hoshino Coffee. But when we stopped, we saw the banner for sushi on level 4. And that’s when we decided to have sushi instead. Great decision.

Take the spiral staircase or the lift. We lift.

When the wooden grill pulley gate will give you a hint of how Japanese this place is and we were excited.

When u enter, they offer to take your coat. And proceed to seat you very quickly.

I like that they were attentive to give us the English menu and swiftly explained to us their sets etc.

We settled for -a set menu of chefs choice of seasonal sushi -salmon plate -salmon skin roll sushi

Food is really great and fresh This comes through especially more so in all the raw cuts Tuna salmon etc

Also fulfilled my wish of watching a chef up close doing my sushi for me with his hands

But what was interesting was an instructional menu that suggested dipping their pickled ginger into their soy sauce as well. New to us. But u can try and let me know if you like it.

Space is nice and wide and bright with wooden accents but as per practice they seat you next to each other really closely and expect to brush arms with animated guests who...

Thankfully I was brought here by an experienced sushi eater, one that has been going to this restaurant for over 20 years and for her to tell me that it’s as good now as it was back then means that it’s more than legit! Especially being seated at the counter, it’s an amazing show of how much pride these sushi masters have in their craft. A simple thing like scooping the appropriate amount of sushi rice and shaping it was beautiful. But what made this place stand out was this special roll that they have, it’s sort of a secret menu item and you would only know if you’ve been a loyal customer. It’s the salmon skin roll, completely balanced and perfect in it’s own way but unique enough to leave you wide eyed and wanting more. To be frank, it’s one of the best rolls I’ve had in my life and all the food that gets placed in front of you WILL be of the best quality...
