#Edamamé
We went for sushi on a Thursday evening and it was sooo good. I was told by a friend to expect a queue, so we showed up ready to wait. I was surprised at how quickly the queue moved. There were tons of specials, and the food came out very quickly. Everything was really good.
Very cosy and authentic Japanese cuisine. Saw high rated reviews and photo of the Japanese owner before decided the visit and it is all worth it! I had edamame, tonkutsu, miso soup, hot green tea and the premium warm sake. Recommend to try tonkutsu, hot green tea and premium warm sake!
Very inventive sushi! I like the restaurant’s ability to take risks, but a lot of them didn’t pay off. Like the minced beef gunkan was actually awful. The natto handroll also had barely any natto in it and tasted like you were eating plain rice. But they did the classics very well and redeemed themselves definitely. All the nigiri in the mixed platter were to die for. Pickled vegetables were also something I’d never tried with sushi before but I highly recommend, a perfect palate cleanser.
Edamamé is the best Japanese restaurant outside of Japan. I’ve been looking for an authentic Japanese spot since I lived in Tokyo, & this is by the far the best. The sushi is excellent & fresh, & all the other meals are so flavorful. Highly recommend. We come to eat here every week 🍣🔥
I adore this little Japanese cuisine place!! Highly recommended what I ordered in the photos. I think it is charming when they keep it cozy and small. One to three customers per group have to share a table with other groups unless you come in bigger group. It is first come first served, you may have to wait in a line for awhile during their busy hours, not ideal in the cold but I can say it’s worth it. The food is so fresh and also affordable. The miso soup tasted authentic. I quite enjoyed their plum wine as well. Double-check to make sure the server got your order correctly and that it didn’t get mix up with other customer’s on the same table like what happened to us. Anyway, I would love to come back to try different menus!
