“Sushi Masa Ishibashi,” a sushi restaurant that captivates gourmets both in Japan and abroad, is nestled in Ginza, offering a serene and tranquil atmosphere.

Born into a sushi family in Tochigi, Masakazu Ishibashi had already honed his craft during his high school years — a true prodigy. Over five years abroad, he refined both his technique and his command of English before returning to Japan.

In Ginza, he went on to earn a Michelin star, and later guided the restaurant’s Singapore sister location to two Michelin stars, firmly establishing his reputation as a master of his art.

The shari (vinegared sushi rice) is a masterful blend of red vinegar aged for five and three years, paired with fish selected at their peak of maturation to draw out the fullest umami. Enhancing the experience is a curated selection of more than 30 sake varieties from across Japan, offering pairings unique to Sushi Masa Ishibashi.

The interior features a whitewood counter, an *ajiro* (woven bamboo) and *kumiko* (wood lattice) ceiling, and a hand-carved wooden refrigerator — all showcasing the artistry of Japanese craftsmanship. The warmth of wood and the quiet harmony of the space elevate dining into an extraordinary experience.

Thanks to Ishibashi’s fluent English, the restaurant welcomes many international guests, with food enthusiasts from around the world captivated by both the cuisine and the hospitality.

Discover the true essence of Edomae sushi — crafted with skill and heart that captivate the world, and found only here.
