Price range

Prices range from ¥4,000 for a simple sushi assortment to a reasonable ¥5,500 for an omakase set. Omakase is when you leave the choice up to the chef, and it changes daily.

How to make a reservation at Ryu Sushi

Like many other restaurants in Toyosu Fish Market, Ryu Sushi does not accept reservations. It’s walk-in only. When we went for a late breakfast on a weekday, it wasn’t crowded at all, but it very much depends on the day.

Ambience

This sushi restaurant has a calmer and slightly more refined atmosphere, compared to some other restaurants in the market. There are tall counter seats, so you can easily watch the chef prepare your food, and this also helps the restaurant feel spacious.
