Sushi Gion Matsudaya

Very quiet and private. Every bite of food was a joy and a delight. We spent 36,000 yen for the whole experience, which was a little expensive but worth it. Full marks.

This Matsudaya restaurant, located in the Kansai region, is a very famous sushi restaurant in the area. The price of sushi here varies depending on the color of the plate, so it is quite convenient to calculate the bill.

I came to this restaurant because my company was recruiting an important client. Actually, I would be put off when I saw the price, but you get what you pay for. The food is exquisite and the service is excellent. It's an unforgettable experience.

The owner, Master Matsuda, is a native of Kansai, and his hometown is a sushi restaurant that has been in business for 40 years. In order to learn the authentic Edomae sushi skills, he studied at several famous restaurants in Tokyo, so his sushi vinegar rice is more Edomae sushi than Kyoto style. The rice is cooked to the right temperature, and you can chew it thoroughly along with the ingredients. I would also like to recommend the always interesting sushi - prawn sushi. It looks very ordinary, but in fact, the whole prawn meat is wrapped in a layer of minced shrimp meat, so the shrimp taste in your mouth will be more intense and obvious, and it also has two different shrimp tastes.

This shop is hard to find, so you need to ask for directions. It's small, with only 6 seats at the counter. The food is fresh and delicious, so it's expensive! The chef speaks a little English and is always smiling. Remember to make reservations in advance!
