■ "Sushi Yoshikawa" opens its second Ginza location.
We are pleased to announce the opening of our eighth "Sushi Yoshikawa" restaurant, "Sushi Yoshikawa Akari -AKARI- Ginza," on Friday, July 31, 2026. This will be our second location in the Ginza area.
Opened in Ebisu in 2019, Sushi Yoshikawa cherishes the traditions of Edomae-style nigiri sushi while pursuing "new charms of sushi" by incorporating Western elements and unique touches into each dish.
While inheriting the charm of the original "Sushi Yoshikawa," "Sushi Yoshikawa Akari Ginza" incorporates new elements in both its cuisine and drinks to allow customers to enjoy a newer sushi experience.
For drinks, we've introduced craft gin, and each sour is an original creation that brings out the best in its ingredients.
For example, the tomato sour is made by carefully straining the tomatoes for a full day, resulting in a new, transparent tomato sour. The lemon sour is made with lemon compote, allowing you to enjoy the taste of the lemon itself. The sansho pepper sour uses a liqueur composed of only 27 kinds of spices. Boiled sansho peppers are made into a paste, creating a refreshing acidity and a gorgeous aroma in this original craft sour from Sushi Yoshikawa.
Both the food and drinks have been re-examined, breaking away from conventional frameworks and re-evaluating the appeal of each individual item to create a new and enriching experience. Please enjoy this luxurious course experience that engages all five senses.
■ The commitment of "Sushi Yoshikawa Akari Ginza"
01. No menu; a completely omakase (chef's choice) style.
"A unique sushi experience that's new every time you visit."
Our chef carefully prepares each piece of sushi using seasonal ingredients selected from all over Japan. From the sushi itself to the grilled dishes, soups, and appetizers, please enjoy a luxurious course that will satisfy all your senses.
02. Specialty dishes that can only be enjoyed at "Sushi Yoshikawa Akari Ginza"
Sea urchin and charcoal-grilled bluefin tuna otoro sukiyaki sushi
We've combined rich, sweet sea urchin with premium fatty tuna (otoro) seared over charcoal to bring out its maximum flavor, all prepared sukiyaki style. By combining the unique characteristics of each ingredient, we've created a harmonious and profound taste, making this one of our signature dishes.
The moment you bring it to your mouth, the rich sweetness of the sea urchin, the melting fat of the premium tuna belly, and the fragrant aroma of charcoal grilling unfold in layers. Savor this exquisite specialty dish, which changes its character with every bite and whose lingering aftertaste has been meticulously calculated.
03. An all-inclusive course to savor the lingering taste of carefully selected premium sake and sushi.
At "Sushi Yoshikawa Akari Ginza," we offer a dreamlike course where you can enjoy sushi and sake to your heart's content.
●What is the All-Inclusive Course ?<br /> This is a luxurious, fixed-price plan exclusively for members. In addition to a sushi course chosen by the head chef, you can enjoy a carefully selected range of alcoholic beverages to your heart's content. Because it is a fixed price including service charge and consumption tax, we offer you a special time where you can truly relax.
04. A signature dish that customers constantly post about on social media.
● Signature dish: "Thick sushi roll with fatty tuna and egg yolk, served with rich red miso sauce"
This signature sushi roll features medium fatty tuna, lean tuna, sea urchin, and egg yolk, all marinated in a secret soy sauce.
When you dip it in the rich red miso sauce provided separately and bring it to your mouth, all the flavors blend together, leaving a rich and lingering aftertaste. The sushi rice is seasoned with a mild red vinegar made from sake lees aged for six years. It is the key to the flavor, bringing out the best in the toppings. The nori seaweed is a specially ordered product from a long-established company with a 150-year history. Its flavor, aroma, and texture are all of the highest quality.
Each roll is crafted with the utmost care, using carefully selected ingredients and the skill of our artisans. Please enjoy this exceptional product that will make you say, "I can tell the difference."
05. Karasumi Soba: A beautiful way to conclude the lingering taste of sushi.
The "Karasumi Soba" served at the end of the course at "Sushi Yoshikawa Akari Ginza" is a masterpiece created to allow you to enjoy the lingering flavors until the very last bite.
We use black soba noodles made from buckwheat flour grown in Shinshu. By grinding the buckwheat grains with the hulls intact, you can enjoy a powerful aroma, rich flavor, and a pleasant chewiness that spreads with every bite.
To complement it, we have our homemade Japanese-style XO sauce, made by carefully concentrating the umami of clams. Furthermore, we sprinkle generously shaved karasumi (cured mullet roe) on top, and the rich aroma and elegant saltiness create a complex flavor with every bite.
By deliberately preparing it as a brothless mixed soba dish, each ingredient complements the others, ensuring that the lingering aftertaste of the sushi is not diminished, and a pleasant sense of satisfaction continues until the very last bite.
A sophisticated dish for adults, born only at "Sushi Yoshikawa."
A special space enveloped in tranquility, nestled in Ginza.
We offer a memorable experience through the craftsmanship poured into each and every piece of our food, and through heartfelt hospitality.
Please come and experience the new world of "Sushi Yoshikawa".
