Visited as a couple for dinner.This restaurant is located in Kamata--a more local (and affordable) neighborhood of Tokyo, probably off the beaten path for most tourists. Hatsunesushi is located quite close the Kamata JR station--within 10 minutes walking. Take the west exit and head North through and out of a pack of restaurants surrounding the station. The owners have hoisted the large and illuminated English letters "Hatsunezushi" in interesting font on the restaurant for easy identification.Entering the building feels a little bit like entering an old style Japanese shop--tatami, no shoes allowed inside, and the serving area amounts to a tiny counter which serves a max of eight people. It has the ambience of someone's home--warm, a little crowded, but comfortable. The entire restaurant is serviced only by the chef, Nakaji-san, and his wife whom acts as an extremely courteous maitre 'd. There is a waiting room in which guests can relax if they arrive early until the counter area is prepared for the next seating.Finally, onto the food. Hatsunezushi offers an extremely interactive and educational dining experience which is probably unique to Tokyo. From the moment you sit down Katsu-san immediately starts introducing himself and his style of cooking and presentation. The first item to come out is a sampling of rice which is still being prepared. It will be apparent his rice is a touch saltier than what you find in mainstream sushi restaurants--this, he explains, is because he doesn't believe in adding any additional sugar or sweetness to the sushi rice as sweetness particularly is overpowering and can overwrite the flavors of the sushi itself. Simply explaining how the dish is cooked does not necessarily make a restaurant unique--in fact there are many sushi bars in Tokyo which do spend considerable time on this. But as the meal progresses, it becomes apparent Nakaji-san has taken things to the next level... his recommendations go as far as to how you consume sushi. First of all--temperature--its no secret that some of the best sushi is served warm. Nakaji-san explains this as body temperature being the most comfortable temperature to consume sushi. To control this process, he demonstrates that he uses huge warmed stone plates--by placing the fish on the stones for a few minutes before serving, temperature is adjusted close to his ideal. For actually consuming the sushi, he also has a particular technique--sushi is not to be put on plates, as that would lead to temperature loss. Instead it is served directly from his hand to yours, and he even demonstrates a specific reversal motion on how the sushi should go from your hand to your mouth. The theme of night is tuna-- served in the three basic sushi cuts: akami, chutoro, ohtoro. The chef himself professed to be a "tuna lover". The fish itself was a little interesting as Nakaji-san had his own method of "dry aging" his tuna--not to the same extent as beef is of course, but aging the product in a controlled environment to intensify flavors. What Nakaji-san proposed was to serve us a cut of each in the traditional style, and an additional piece back to back that had been slightly simmered in typical Japanese soy-based style so the outside would be slightly cooked and flavoured--a contrast of old and new flavors. Both are delicious--would leave it to you to decide which was "better".In addition to the tuna, there is a vast array of sushi served before and after and even in between to keep variety going--adding up to quite a decent amount of food. For us, we saw ebi, akagai, kaki, ika, hirame, hamachi, kane and more. All were excellent--and Nakaji-san took the time to explain the rationale for how he was cutting each fish and any additional sauces he was adding. Few other points to note about this restaurant:- This restaurant ONLY serves sushi--maki, nigiri, temaki. There are no other appetizers and the only side is pickled ginger, and even the dessert is shaped and presented in a sushi form (basically a sweet egg-based custard sushi).- The chef really begins preparing most of the food after guests arrive--even seasoning the rice. So there is a delay before any food is actually served--unlike many sushi places that start loading you up shortly after sitting- They have two seatings a night at 6:30 and 8:30. Given this restaurant's presentation style, punctuality may be critical as everyone is served in sync- Nakaji-san and his wife are highly proficient in English.If you are a sushi lover with some interest in the process of preparation, then this is the experience for you. But it may not be suitable for a business gathering or event where a lot of conversation will occur within the group, as Nakaji-san's passion does keep guests pre-occupied the bulk of the evening.

This is a great spot to grab some sushi at Haneda Airport before going for your flight. In our case, my two colleagues and I decided to come here as we were waiting for our check-in time at the airport hotel. We looked over the food options in Terminal 2 and decided that sushi sounded good. So we made our way up to the 4th floor and found this place easily where the directory board said it would be. The shop was moderate in size and sported standard décor with a family-style layout.We were seated quickly and looked over the tempting choices on the menu. My colleagues ordered different portions of sushi and I had a rice bowl with sushi on top. I was very pleased with my choice as the taste was excellent. My colleagues were likewise happy with their choices.The service provided throughout our stay was excellent. The prices were pretty reasonable as we were able to stay below the equivalent of $20 USD each for lunch.If you are in Haneda and want a traditional Japanese treat before you head through security, this place is a good spot to try. The sushi is terrific, the service is good and the prices are not bad.

A pleasant experience in a local Japanses restaurant. No English spoken (or hardly), no English menu, so ordering has to be by pointing at the pictures and what others have ordered.The sashimi special is great as is the salad with fish and grilled beans.We liked it. Very much recommended.

Shushi is ordered at the table with a tablet device. The shushi is individually prepared with a perfect ratio and size of fish and rice. The soy sauce is light supports the fine aroma of the sushi very well. The green tea is fantastic, you can brew it yourself at the table with some green tea powder. Donât miss to order the Miso soup as well! For friends of japanese Sushi there will be no whishes left open - also not to your wallet as the price-food-ratio is unbeatable. Enjoy!

I recently had dinner with friends at Cedros, my favorite restaurant in Tokyo. It is always a highlight of my trip there! The food and service are outstanding and brothers, Lui and Yui always make everyone feel very welcome. This visit, we sampled everything from salad to dessert and each dish was amazingly fresh and flavorful. They specialize in California style seafood which is always a welcome change when visiting a foreign destination.
