Located a 15-minute walk away from Roppongi Station and Hiroo Station, Nishi-Azabu is a gourmet battleground with a multitude of enticing restaurants. At the heart of Nishi-Azabu, near the intersection, is "Nishi-Azabu Taku," a sushi restaurant that has been awarded a star for 15 years since 2008.
The head chef is Takuya Sato, who has trained at renowned establishments in Roppongi and Ginza, as well as gaining experience in Japanese cuisine along the way. Valuing the encounter with each customer, he creates an omakase course tailored to their preferences and needs through conversation. The ingredients used for the sushi are fresh and seasonal. Two types of vinegar rice are used, with rice vinegar for shellfish and light white-fleshed fish, and red vinegar for fatty tuna and intensely flavored aged fish, skillfully balancing the flavors. This meticulous and delicate technique results in exquisite flavors. The omakase course consists of approximately 20 items, alternating between appetizers and sushi, guaranteeing a satisfying experience.
They offer a wide selection of alcoholic beverages such as sake, shochu, and Champagne. In particular, the sommelier-curated wine list, with a focus on Burgundy wines, pairs exceptionally well with the traditional Edo-style sushi. The combination enhances the flavors in a synergistic manner. Multiple options for wines by the glass are also available, making it one of the charming aspects of "Nishi-Azabu Taku" that allows you to enjoy both sushi and wine together.
The interior of the restaurant prioritizes the comfort of the customers and features an 8-seat counter and private counter rooms that can accommodate 4 to 6 people. Additionally, a annex area with a 6-seat counter is also available. The design is a blend of Japanese and modern elements, carefully considering factors such as the exposed concrete walls and the brick-like charcoal grill, creating a relaxed atmosphere. The counter provides a sense of luxury with its height and usability. Additionally, since the restaurant operates until late at night, it can be utilized not only for entertaining and business dinners but also for solo dining or dates starting from late hours.
We highly recommend you indulge in the exquisite marriage of sushi and wine that they offer.
