The sushi I had here is unlike anything I’ve ever tasted — even compared to the high-end spots in Ginza. I came here with my brother, who lives in Tokyo, and sharing this meal with him made the experience even more special. While Ginza sushi is elegant and refined, this place offers something entirely different: a sense of warmth, intimacy, and artistry that’s hard to describe. Every piece of sushi felt like a moment carefully crafted — not just in taste, but in emotion. The fish was incredibly fresh, the rice perfectly seasoned, and the way everything came together was simply unforgettable. Sitting side by side with my brother, savoring each bite, it felt less like dining and more like quietly celebrating life together. I’ve eaten at many acclaimed restaurants across Tokyo, but this place has a soul of its own. It’s not just a meal — it’s a memory I’ll treasure for a long, long time.

The sushi rice in the chirashi bowl was overly acidic, disrupting the dish's balance, while the fish lacked the expected freshness and quality.
Had such a wonderful dinner at Hirohisa — definitely one of the most memorable omakase experiences I’ve had in New York. The food was absolutely delicious, with every course made from fresh, seasonal ingredients that really stood out. You can tell how much thought and care went into the preparation.
The plating was simple but beautiful, and the dishes they used added a special touch to the whole experience. What really made the night stand out, though, was the service — both the chef and staff were so friendly, warm, and attentive. It felt personal in the best way.
I’ve also been for lunch and loved it just as much — the quality and attention to detail are always there. Hirohisa has always been my favorite Japanese restaurant in the city, and this visit just reminded me why. Can’t wait to go back.

We came for the lunch menu. The quality of the food here is undeniably high — the fish was incredibly fresh, and every dish felt thoughtfully prepared. It’s clear they prioritize sourcing and execution, and for that alone, the restaurant deserves praise.
That said, two parts of the experience left us feeling disappointed.
First, the portion sizes were surprisingly small. I’m usually someone who doesn’t eat very much, and even I only felt about 80–85% full after the meal. My partner, who typically eats more, was still quite hungry afterward and we had to grab snacks later. For the price point and overall presentation, we expected a bit more substance.
Second, the service felt rushed in a way that affected our ability to enjoy the meal. We understand and respect that there’s a 90-minute seating window. We actually finished our meal fairly quickly — around 20 minutes after receiving our food — because we had plans afterward. We then asked for the bill ourselves and signed it right away. I stayed for just a few extra seconds to sip the tea they gave us with the check and check directions on my phone, when a staff member came over and said, “Excuse me, you need to leave,” while motioning to the next guests. It felt abrupt — especially since there was still an empty table available, and it’s only been 50 minutes since we were seated. In contrast, the table next to us (who had been seated earlier) was not being asked to leave. And I had only taken two sips of the tea because it’s literally only been 30 seconds after I signed the bill. It made us feel unfairly singled out.
Adding to that, despite the tight timing, it actually took about 20 minutes for anyone to take our order. We had tried making eye contact and signaling multiple times, but were mostly ignored until someone finally came over. If time is that strict, we would have appreciated a bit more attentiveness early on to make the most of it.
In short: the food is excellent, but the pacing and portioning could use improvement — especially if they want diners to walk away feeling full, welcome, and valued.

Super cute Japanese restaurant in NYC. Their $95 uni don lunch special is pricey but totally worth it—really fresh and comes with miso soup, pickles, and a few small sides. They also have a sashimi don that’s just as delicious but much cheaper. The waiters are really courteous and make the whole experience feel special without being too formal.

The chef doesn’t know what respect is. The waitress brings the check before I had the dessert.. which I ordered twice. Food was ok but won’t visit again nor recommend to others.
Exceptional experience in so many ways
