KUSAKABE offers a wonderful dining experience with professional Chef Mika. The food is incredible, with fresh fish and nicely paired flavors. The chef showcases her talent by preparing each course with skill, sharing details about the origin of the fish and the best seaweed. The dishes, from octopus to scallop to sea bream, are well executed, beautifully plated, and served with joy. The petit omakase (13 course) is perfectly paced, and the staff is friendly and attentive, making diners feel very welcomed. The food was very fresh and delicious, and the experience is highly recommended for sushi lovers. The restaurant is a top choice for a sushi meal, especially for omakase, and offers a memorable night out. Diners praise the thoughtfully made and delicious dishes, the clean and dry Nigata sake, and the impeccable service. The food is beautifully presented, with a focus on fresh and authentic flavors.
The restaurant is busy and reservations are first come, first serve, which can make securing a table or counter seat challenging. The prices are high, especially for beverages, which may be expensive compared to other sushi spots. Customers noted the difficulty in hearing the wait staff due to masks, but the service was otherwise attentive, with the chefs accommodating preferences such as less rice in the nigiri. The 18-course omakase was a highlight, with the wagyu being a standout dish. The restaurant also provided a special dessert to celebrate a diner's birthday.
