Tabelog 4.54 🥇
Sushi Namba Hibiya is one of the only 6 Tabelog Gold sushiyas located in Tokyo. Chef Namba is known for being extremely meticulous in temperature management of shari and neta. I have been to Sushi Namba a few times - Namba San’s uni and maguro selection was consistently outstanding. Thanks to Namba San’s generosity, we were offered an off-menu toro temaki and a gigantic Murasaki Uni from Kyushu. The latter was one of the best Murasaki Uni I have had this year – its lasting yet delicate kombu flavor was to die for. Namba San also curated some unconventional, seasonal tsumamis like mixing matsutake with sanma. Flavors were indeed very bold and polarized.
Namba San is currently expanding his business by setting up a branch in Yotsuya and a members-only sushi restaurant in Miami. I genuinely hope he can scale up his business smoothly as it is always challenging to do so for a sushiya.
