A sushi restaurant in Osaka that's worth making a special trip for.

He loves fish. That's why he makes sushi.

Each piece of sushi is crafted with serene grace by a chef who truly loves fish.

A single course menu offering the finest Japanese cuisine and sushi, backed by the renowned Japanese restaurant "Takada Hassho" in Gifu and the Michelin-starred sushi restaurant "Sushi-dokoro Amano" in Osaka.


The course for this day included:
* Grilled conger eel, grilled eggplant paste
Comparison of plum paste and myoga ginger, chili vinegar and asatsuki
* Softly simmered abalone and octopus
* Akashi sea bream sashimi
* Three kinds of seared fish
Biwa trout, golden snapper, stray bonito
* Small taro, sea urchin with sweet shrimp, whelk
* Eel, hairtail, fresh ginkgo nuts
* Water eggplant
* White sweet snapper, corn, steamed edamame
* Nigiri sushi
Swordtip squid, fresh squid, fresh squid tentacles
Kelp-cured sillago, kelp-cured conger eel
Marinated lean tuna, fatty tuna, gizzard shad,
Kuruma shrimp, Yura sea urchin, conger eel, egg
* Fish bone soup
* Shine Muscat grapes, figs

"Every ingredient has a clear reason for being chosen."

Therefore,
everything was truly delicious,
but the Yura sea urchin was particularly impressive.
This sea urchin was overwhelmingly delicious, clearly setting it apart from any I'd ever tasted before.
There was absolutely no bitterness or off-flavors; just an elegant sweetness and umami, and even the aftertaste was second to none.
As I listened to the chef's stories and savored each dish, I felt his love for fish and cooking, and his dedication to sourcing.
It wasn't about competing in flashiness, but rather a careful and attentive approach to the fish itself.
That's why, after finishing the meal, what remained was not just that it was delicious, but also that I wanted to come back again.

以下レビュー❗️

⚫︎鱧の霜造り
焼き茄子のペーストの上に乗せられており、上には「梅肉ミョウガ」と「ちり酢のアサツキ」がそれぞれ乗っています。サクサクした歯応えと、酸味や仄かな焼きナスの香りが立つ美味しい前菜でした。

⚫︎鮑と蛸のうま煮
鮑は水とお酒のみで、タコは番茶で炊いているとのこと。聞くとシンプルに思えますが、驚くほど柔らかで強い旨みを感じます。

⚫︎明石真鯛の造り
しっかりした歯応えで強い旨みを感じる身質。塩でシンプルに素材の味を楽しみました。

⚫︎琵琶マスと白星フエダイの炙り
琵琶マスは唯一生で食べれるマス、白星フエダイは高級魚でなかなか出会えない魚です。どちらも皮がパリッと炙られていて造りとは異なる香りを楽しめます。白星フエダイは脂が多めですが、炙られているので比較的あっさりしていました。

⚫︎アテ盛り合わせ
・甘エビ雲丹和え
・つぶ貝
・イワシの梅煮
・小芋

つぶ貝は刺身でシャキシャキ。甘エビはコクがありつつも、青柚子で爽やかさも感じます。お酒にピッタリな盛り合わせでした。

⚫︎鮎とうなぎの焼物
うなぎは関西風で皮はパリパリ。新銀杏が付け合わせですが、シャリシャリした食感が驚きでした。鮎は生きている鮎を串うちして焼いてくれます。苦味が強く大人な味わい。日本酒によく合う焼物でした。

⚫︎水茄子
泉州貝塚の水茄子で「馬場茄子」というブランド茄子。地元の人しか手に入らないレアリティの高い水茄子とのこと。瑞々しさが素晴らしく貴重な食材が食べれて大満足でした。

⚫︎白甘鯛の蒸物
とうもろこしのペーストと黒王豆が乗っています。とうもろこしは非常に甘く、しっかりした黒王豆とふっくらした白甘鯛の身の食感のコントラストが秀逸。

⚫︎鮨
・剣先イカ
しっかり細かく包丁が入っており柔らかな食感。塩であっさりと。

・キスの昆布締め
仄かに酢で締まってる印象も。旨みの強い味わい。

・赤身漬け
江戸前風の漬け。表面を湯通ししてコーティングした後に漬けにするスタイル。味は優しめで好みのタイプ。

・中トロ
上質な脂で甘い味わい。素材の良さを感じる一貫。

・コハダ
噛むたびに旨みが染み出します。締まりすぎずしっかり身の味を楽しめます。

・車海老
サムネのエビ。シャキシャキした歯応えと海老の甘味をしっかり感じられました。

・由良の赤雲丹
雑味が一切なく非常に甘い雲丹。仕入れが難しい雲丹とのこと。仕入れも相当高く、コースに入ってるのが心配になるレベル。この素材を仕入れれるのは非常に難しく、料理人の方々も食べにくるとのことです。

・蒸し穴子
シャリを包む形で握られます。ポーションが大きいのが嬉しいです。

・たまご
魚と海老のすり身で作られており奥深い味わい。甘いデザート風のたまごが流行っていますが、個人的にはこういったたまごが大好きです。

⚫︎お吸い物
魚の骨を炊いて作ったという汁物。芽ねぎで彩りが加わっています。

⚫︎イチジク＆シャインマスカット
最後はフルーツでスッキリと。

コースは以上❗️

使われている素材にこだわっているとのことで、どれも美味しく驚きでした。お茶まで自身で味を確かめブレンドされているとのことです。またお鮨だけでなく、一品も多めなのが個人的に嬉しかったです😊

大将はフレンドリーで気さくに話してくれるので、リラックスして食事できるのも高ポイント。

キタエリアでお鮨屋さんを探される場合にいかがでしょうか？？

Fukushima, Sushi Arai ✨

This sushi restaurant opened last year in Shin-Fukushima Minami. The owner trained at Amano and then took over the location to open his own restaurant. They offer a course menu featuring ingredients from Senshu and carefully selected fresh fish. 😊

I made a reservation for:
・Omakase Course (22,000 yen including tax)
✨

Course Composition 🍣
・Appetizer
・Assortment of Abalone and Octopus
・White Fish Sashimi
・Shellfish Appetizer
・Seared or Vinegared Sashimi
・Grilled Dish
・Simmered Dish
・8 Pieces of Nigiri Sushi
・Egg Omelet (for finishing the meal)
*The composition may change depending on the season.

Drink Information 🍺
・Small Bottle of Beer (approx. 1,000 yen)
・Sake (1 go, approx. 1,500 yen and up)
*There is no menu, so the above is an estimate based on what I ordered.

Below is my review❗️

⚫︎Seared Pike Conger Sashimi
Served on top of grilled eggplant paste, with "plum paste and myoga ginger" and "chili vinegar and chives" on top. The appetizer was delicious, with a crisp texture and a pleasant acidity and subtle aroma of roasted eggplant.

• Braised Abalone and Octopus
The abalone was cooked in water and sake only, and the octopus in bancha tea. While it sounds simple, it was surprisingly tender and had a strong umami flavor.

• Akashi Sea Bream Sashimi
The flesh had a firm texture and a strong umami flavor. We enjoyed the simple taste of the fish with salt.

• Seared Biwa Trout and White-spotted Snapper
Biwa trout is the only type of trout that can be eaten raw, and white-spotted snapper is a high-class fish that is rarely encountered. Both had crispy seared skin, offering a different aroma than sashimi. The white-spotted snapper is quite fatty, but the searing made it relatively light.

* Appetizer Platter
* Sweet Shrimp with Sea Urchin
* Whelk
* Sardines Simmered in Plum Sauce
* Small Taro

The whelk was served as sashimi and was wonderfully crisp. The sweet shrimp had a rich flavor, yet the green yuzu added a refreshing touch. It was a perfect platter to accompany sake.

* Grilled Sweetfish and Eel
The eel was prepared Kansai-style, with crispy skin. The fresh ginkgo nuts served as a garnish had a surprisingly crunchy texture. The sweetfish was grilled on skewers while still alive. It had a strong bitterness and a sophisticated flavor. It was a grilled dish that paired well with sake.

* Water Eggplant
This was a brand of water eggplant called "Baba Eggplant" from Kaizuka, Senshu. Apparently, it's a rare water eggplant that only locals can get their hands on. Its juiciness was amazing, and I was very satisfied to be able to eat such a precious ingredient.

* Steamed White Tilefish
Topped with corn paste and black beans. The corn is very sweet, and the contrast in texture between the firm black beans and the plump white tilefish is excellent.

* Sushi
* Swordtip Squid
Finely and precisely cut, resulting in a soft texture. Lightly seasoned with salt.

* Kelp-cured Sillago
Also gives the impression of being slightly cured with vinegar. A strong umami flavor.

* Marinated Lean Tuna
Edo-style marinated tuna. The surface is blanched and coated before being marinated. The flavor is mild, a type I like.

* Medium Fatty Tuna
High-quality fat with a sweet flavor. A piece that lets you appreciate the quality of the ingredients.

* Gizzard Shad
Umami seeps out with every bite. Not too firm, allowing you to fully enjoy the flavor of the flesh.

* Tiger Prawn
The prawn in the thumbnail. The crisp texture and sweet flavor of the shrimp were very noticeable.

* Yura Red Sea Urchin: This sea urchin was incredibly sweet with absolutely no off-flavors. Apparently, it's difficult to source. The cost is quite high, making me wonder why it was included in the course. It's extremely difficult to obtain this ingredient, and even professional chefs come to eat it.

* Steamed Conger Eel: The eel is wrapped around the rice in the nigiri sushi. The generous portion size was a pleasant surprise.

* Egg: Made from fish and shrimp paste, it had a deep, rich flavor. While sweet, dessert-style eggs are popular, I personally love this kind of egg.

* Clear Soup: A soup made by simmering fish bones. Garnished with green onions.

* Fig & Shine Muscat Grapes: A refreshing finish with fruit.

That concludes the course!

The restaurant is very particular about the ingredients used, and everything was surprisingly delicious. I heard that they even taste-test and blend their own tea. I was also personally pleased that they offered a generous selection of side dishes in addition to the sushi. 😊

The chef is friendly and easy to talk to, which makes for a relaxing dining experience – a big plus.

If you're looking for a sushi restaurant in the Kita area, why not give this one a try?

An unforgettable dining experience at Sushi Arai. Every dish was beautifully presented on unique and elegant dishware, and Chef Arai's warmth and hospitality made the evening even more special. He thoughtfully explained each course, showcasing the skill and passion of a true master of his craft.

I even found myself enjoying ingredients I normally don't care for because his preparation brought out incredible flavors. We were fortunate to have a private dining experience while much of the staff was on holiday, making the evening feel especially personal. To top it all off, Chef Arai kindly walked us to a nearby temple after dinner so we could try to catch festival practice. A truly memorable meal and a wonderful example of Japanese hospitality.

Food is so good, I got emotional. Most wholesome chef ever!

Incredible omakase experience. Super fresh fish, a wide variety of dishes, and the chef personally selected sake to go along with the food. Atmosphere is very classy. You could easily go here alone or with family/friends. Chef speaks some English (though not on the phone) and was very kind and personable. He took the time to explain each dish or look up translations on his phone for us. I highly recommend this restaurant.

料理ももちろん店の雰囲気、大将も全てが完璧

The food, the atmosphere of the restaurant, and the chef—everything was perfect.

Last night’s omakase dinner was truly unforgettable — hands down the best meal of my entire 11-day Japan trip. Having dined at two other Michelin-starred restaurants during this journey, this experience stood above them all.

Every dish was a masterpiece, crafted with such precision, elegance, and heart. If you are ever in Osaka, this is an absolute must-visit restaurant — one that will leave a lasting impression long after the meal ends.

A heartfelt thank you to Arai-san for the exceptional hospitality, impeccable service, and an extraordinary dining experience. Arigato gozaimasu!

Excellent service and food by Chef Arai. We chanced upon this spot and really resonated with Chef Arai’s story.

If you’re ever in the mood for good sushi and vibes, Chef Arai’s curated offerings should definitely be one you consider

Hands down one of the best omakase I have ever experienced! The chef has tremendous attention to detail & is definitely a master in his craft

This was an amazing culinary experience & each dish had a “wow” factor which I have never experienced before in Japan

Each dish was exquisite, refined, & had very fresh ingredients

We had a great time at Sushi Arai, amazing food and service, the selected ingredients are amazing and everything ist delicious.

It's a nice little restaurant with about 9 counter seats.
The young chef is working hard.
They are particular about their ingredients, and the flavors are delicate.
Thank you for the delicious meal! 🙏

Tucked away in an alleyway is a beautiful, calming, and welcoming sushi bar by chef Arai. Though we did not speak English, the team accommodated us. The food was delicious, service was spectacular, and overall I’d highly recommend this place to fellow travelers.

We have been one month in Japan, concluding our trip in Osaka where we had the most delicious sushi of our entire trip. The chef has explained every dish, it was interesting to understand. The sushi was phenomenal, and the restaurant was perfect for a romantic dinner. Also, due to a misunderstanding with tablecheck, we risked of having our dinner cancelled.. luckily sushi arai has been kind to accommodate our need to change reservation last minute. I really recommend this restaurant, thanks for the beautiful experience! Oishii desu!

Dear Chef Arai,

Thank you very much for such an incredible evening. We truly enjoyed every dish you prepared for us. The quality of your food was exquisite, and your attention to detail was second to none. We especially appreciated the time you took to explain each course and for sharing your wonderful sake recommendations.

After traveling through Japan for more than two weeks and dining at several well-known omakase restaurants in Tokyo and Kyoto, our dinner with you surpassed all of our previous experiences. It was, without question, the best omakase we had during our trip, and we will definitely recommend your restaurant to our friends.

It was also very inspiring to see the passion and care you bring to your craft. Your love for what you do clearly shines through in every dish you create.

Thank you again for such a memorable evening. We wish you continued success and hope to dine with you again in the future.

Our stand-out meal from the whole of Japan. Having eaten at numerous of the best sushi restaurants, fine dining and Toyosu fish market restaurants, our dinner at Sushi Arai was sublime.

Every course was delicious and paired with fantastic sake which the chef personally chose for us.

An absolute must visit for anyone in Osaka for a chef who will undoubtedly become a renowned name in the years to come.

Incredible omakase experience and the highlight of my trip to Japan.

I booked the chef’s choice dinner while traveling through Osaka and ended up having an unforgettable meal. Every piece of sushi was prepared with incredible attention to detail — warm perfectly seasoned rice, fresh wasabi between the rice and fish, and each piece lightly brushed with sauce so it was ready to eat immediately.

The tuna and Hokkaido uni were absolutely outstanding.

What made the night truly special was the chef himself. I was dining solo and he took the time to explain each fish and even showed photos of the ingredients he was serving. You could feel the pride and craftsmanship in every course.

At the end of the meal the chef and staff walked me outside and we exchanged bows, a small moment that perfectly captured the hospitality of the experience.

If you’re looking for a true sushi counter experience in Osaka, I can’t recommend this place enough.

We started with a la carte dishes,
and every dish was delicious, raising our expectations for the sushi.
After enjoying sashimi, grilled dishes, and simmered dishes, we had eight pieces of sushi, which were also very tasty.
They were so good we ordered two more.

They also had a wide selection of sake and wine, and we had both red and white wine that day. It was a truly enjoyable evening with delicious food and drinks. I'd love to visit again.

Fantastic dinner. We enjoyed every dish.

去年にオープンしたばかりのまだ新しいお店。

伺った時は、ちょうど良いタイミングでとてもゆっくり過ごせました。

一品料理の品数は多めで
一つ一つに丁寧さが感じられ美味しかったです。

握りは、シャリはしっかりした量があって
シャリ好きな私からしたら嬉しかった。

This is a fairly new restaurant that only opened last year.

When I visited, the timing was just right and I was able to relax and enjoy myself.

There was a large selection of a la carte dishes,
and each one was delicious and you could feel the care that went into making it.

The nigiri sushi had a generous amount of rice, which was great for someone like me who loves rice.

The drinks were also delicious, and I thought the space was really nice.

Thank you for the meal✨

Exquisite, authentic Japanese cuisine with outstanding sushi.
A refined, welcoming atmosphere and a genuinely attentive host.
Thank you for a memorable experience — highly recommended.
A true classic and a restaurant of exceptional quality.

The tastiest sushi we’ve had in Japan! A gorgeous little restaurant and not too formal compared to others. Highlight was the anago (sea eel) nigiri!

An unforgettable experience. It's a pleasure to watch Chef Arai cook and taste his wonderful dishes. Definitely 100% recommended.

お鮨、美味しかったです。シャリの握りが、空気を含んでとってもやさしく柔らかです。お皿に置かれた瞬間に、ネタ自身の重みで少し沈みます。口に入れるとシャリは爽快に直ぐにほどけて、旨さが口全体に拡がります。鮨好きの皆様、是非ご賞味してください。

The sushi was delicious. The rice was perfectly formed, with air incorporated into the shape, making it incredibly soft and delicate. The moment it was placed on the plate, it sank slightly under the weight of the topping. When you put it in your mouth, the rice dissolves refreshingly quickly, and the delicious flavor spreads throughout your mouth. Sushi lovers, please give it a try!

awesome evening. restaurant opened for a few months only - but can see why gathering good attention. quality of food and selection is first class! ⭐️

I first became acquainted with this chef during my visit to Sushi Amano, where he was the sous chef. I was thrilled to see him establishing his own restaurant. The food here showcases high-quality ingredients, reflecting the chef's solid foundational skills. His techniques are impressive, and he introduces innovative dishes that surprise the palate. He also pays great attention to color, enhancing the visual appeal of each plate and truly whetting the appetite. Each dish is a testament to his creativity and expertise, resulting in a delightful dining experience. I’m excited to see how he continues to evolve his culinary offerings.
