Sushi Fuji

Originally, this restaurant was well-known in Shiga Prefecture. The owner's son, who had been a bio researcher has returned and is aiming to create a restaurant that incorporates his expertise as a highly skilled bio-researcher. Cooking and experimentation have a lot in common, especially with regard to things like temperature control. Anyway, the recipes and creatively prepared dishes are incredible. I had an amazing meal there again yesterday. They also welcome tourists from abroad and it would be better to make a reservation two days before.

After discovering this wonderful restaurant, I soon became an addicted repeat offender! My recent visit was my 8th time and I still want more! Sushi Fuji Otsu is run by a staff of knowledgeable family members overseen by the strict but fair perfectionist General! All dishes are delicious, traditional kaiseki but with elements of gentle scientific experimentation to improve the appearances and tastes. The young general is a glorious chef who is always challenging and improving on his skills and dishes. I am always thankful to the Sake Maestro, Toshinori-san, who explains every dish and type of drink with such passion and insight and even more importantly in great English! He made my friend visiting from New Zealand feel so welcome and happy and they took special care of us by arranging an exclusive lunch feast! So I recommend gourmets of all nationalities to come to this fine establishment at once and get hooked on Sushi Fuji Otsu, just like my wife and I! Now, it must surely be time again to book a table for dinner if they can fit us in! Thanks for everything, Sushi Fuji Otsu!

久しぶりに大ヒットなお寿司屋さん。連れて行っていただいたのですがとっても素敵なお店でした 季節ごとにメニューが変わるようなので定期的に伺いたい 前菜の黒マグロから計算し尽くされた絶品のお料理の数々ばかりでしたが、やはり一番感動したのはウニしゃぶ。ミョウバン不使用の超濃厚ウニ出汁に貝や魚を潜らせて食べるのが幸せでした 〆の雑炊では本当に昇天しました その後に出てきた鰻の焼きしゃぶ、鴨の陶板焼きも美味しすぎて…。 若大将オススメの日本酒も教えていただき、色々飲めて幸せでした 次は夏に伺いたいです
