A message from the Chef

For me, the sushi counter is where I feel most at home—it’s a space where I can truly express myself. Before becoming a sushi chef, I worked as a food scientist, a background that sets me apart from others in the industry. This unique experience allows me to approach sushi from both a scientific perspective and the traditions of Edomae-style sushi, giving my craft a distinctive edge.

Families with children are always welcome! I strive to create a warm, inviting atmosphere where guests can relax and enjoy their meal—not just as individuals, but as part of a shared dining experience. Whether you’re dining with loved ones or striking up a conversation with fellow guests, I hope you’ll feel at ease in this space.

About

The head chef at Sushi Yuwa trained at renowned sushi establishments in Tokyo, honing the techniques of Edomae-style sushi, and later refined his skills at five-star hotels and Kyoto restaurants. With a background in research before becoming a chef, he brings an innovative touch to traditional sushi, crafting a unique dining experience that blends time-honored techniques with a fresh perspective.
