Tokyo: High-End Sushi Lunch at Okeisushi (おけいすし) for Just 2800 Yen in Omotesando

I recently took a day off and visited a sushi restaurant in the Omotesando area. Okeisushi (おけいすし) is a high-end establishment where dinner typically costs around 30,000 yen. However, they offer a lunch course for just 2,800 yen, making it a more accessible option. The restaurant has only counter seating, so it’s best to make a reservation in advance.

Since we had reserved the lunch course over the phone, the first dish, a fresh salad, was served shortly after we were seated.

Our meal began with a salad and shijimi clam soup, both of which were delightful. The seaweed in the salad had a satisfyingly crunchy texture.

Next came Salmon roe dressed with wasabizuke, a Japanese pickled horseradish. The balance of flavors was exquisite.

Following that, we were served lightly grilled Sardine. As you can see, the sardine was beautifully fatty, with its oil glistening in the light.

The highlight of the meal for me was the Marinated lean meat of tuna, which was rich in flavor and perfectly prepared. It was my favorite dish of the day.

Another standout was their specialty, Minced sea bream and abalone innards, which offered a unique and refined taste.

Other dishes included Sea urchin, which was slightly bitter for my taste,

Sweet and succulent shrimp, and boiled clam with a sweet sauce, which had an incredible shellfish flavor.

The course concluded with a Negitoro roll, flatfish, and simple miso soup with wakame seaweed.

At 2,800 yen, this lunch course was a fantastic value, allowing us to enjoy a taste of luxury without breaking the bank. If you’re in the Omotesando area, I highly recommend trying Okeisushi for an exceptional sushi experience.
