They offer just one course, the chef’s Omakase. They also have a wide selection of drinks, including Japanese sake that pairs well with the sushi, which is a nice plus for people who enjoy drinking.
The carefully crafted sushi has a great reputation, with every topping said to be fresh and excellent. It seems many people end up drinking a little too much because the food is just that good.

The course also includes several kinds of otsumami (small appetizers). The selection changes depending on the day, but all of them are said to be delicately seasoned and delicious. You can also order additional sushi and otsumami.
As the place is often lively with regulars, it is best to make a reservation before visiting.

The nigiri sushi is carefully prepared and brings out the flavor of each ingredient. In particular, the pieces made with seasonal neta (toppings) are thoughtfully crafted while still offering familiar, comforting flavors. The atmosphere inside also feels warm, so you can relax and enjoy your meal.

Both the appetizers and the sushi were excellent. I’m not usually a big fan of katsuo (bonito), but this was my first time trying it smoked, and it was delicious and Surprising! The chutoro and bafun uni (horse dung sea urchin) were amazing, the anago (conger eel) was so tender, and I also appreciated that they recommended Japanese sake for us each time.

Sushi Shibakatsu is a hideaway sushi restaurant where you can enjoy sushi made with Special ingredients brought in daily from Tokyo's wholesale market. It stands quietly just a 2-minute walk from JR Funabashi Station.

They offer only two types of Omakase courses, which you can choose based on your budget. Both include not only sushi, but also otsumami (small appetizers), tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled omelet), and soup.
The sushi, made with the best ingredients available at the time, is said to be fresh and delicious across the board. You can also order additional items, including ones not included in the course.

The course starts with otsumami (small dishes). The lineup changes depending on the day, but you can enjoy 6〜7 items. Each one is carefully made and excellent, and they also explain each dish in detail.
They also offer a wide selection of drinks, including Japanese sake and wine, that pair well with the sushi and otsumami.

Every a la carte dish and every piece of nigiri is high quality. Even I, who do not usually like oysters unless they are raw, found the kaki no aburani (oil simmered oysters) delicious. The akami nigiri (lean tuna nigiri) practically melts in your mouth even though it is lean tuna. When a restaurant makes shari (sushi rice) this good, everything you eat tastes great. The three of us also drank more than 1 sho of sake, including labels we had never tried before, and the buzz kicked in, making it a very fun gathering.

The chef's hospitality is probably what this place is known for. You can really feel the warmth and care. The food was also wonderful, and I enjoyed it very much. The selection of drinks is also very good, and good sake not listed on the menu kept coming out one after another. It made for a very pleasant evening. It was a great meal✨️

The popular signature item is the "Kiwami-zushi (premium sushi)," made with thick-cut toppings. It uses shari (seasoned sushi rice) blended with black vinegar and balsamic vinegar for a deep, rich flavor.
Everything is said to be fresh and delicious, but the "thick-cut salmon" is especially popular. Even though it is thickly cut, it is said to be so tender it practically melts in your mouth.

At lunchtime, this place is a great pick for people who want to enjoy sushi casually. They offer a wide range of good value set menus.

I ordered the Kiwame Sushi Tanno 5-Piece Set, which includes nomeru saamon (salmon so soft it feels drinkable), one of the signature menu items. I was Manzoku with the toppings, but what surprised me the most was this black shari (sushi rice). It pairs well with the sushi and goes great with alcohol too. It looks good as well, so I can recommend it when eating with friends. They also have a full range of other otsumami (small dishes to go with drinks), so it seems like a place you would not get tired of no matter how many times you visit.

Personally, any sushi place that has me-negi (bud green onion) is a big winner for me. So Shari Zen was fantastic! It was also nice to see basashi (horse sashimi) among the toppings. Overall, it is reasonably priced, with a wide variety of toppings and a large menu. There are also lots of daily specials, making you want to visit in every season. The sushi chefs were friendly and smiled often, and it was a very comfortable sushi restaurant.

It was Friday evening, but we were lucky to get in without a reservation. We had the sashimi assortment of three kinds, Sea Bream soft roe ponzu, kuruma ebi (Japanese tiger prawn) grilled with salt, wasabi greens rolls, toro-taku rolls, and more. As usual, we filled up on the à la carte dishes before we even made it to the sushi.

Another appealing point is that they also have bento (boxed meals) you can enjoy as Takeout.
ちんたくん
Even starting with the yamakake (grated yam over dashi) otoshi (small appetizer), you can tell they do not cut corners. It is a tekka-maki (tuna roll), but no matter how you taste it, it eats like a chutoro-maki (medium fatty tuna roll)〜. And then the anago-zushi (conger eel sushi)! It felt like a fine anago (conger eel) gently simmered until tender, the kind of thing that makes anyone happy. I also had salmon and hotate (scallop). I always think this, but the way they serve such generous toppings really shows the spirit of this restaurant.

It looked like a long-established sushi restaurant, so it took some courage to go in, but it wasn’t like that at all. The taisho (head chef) was very friendly, and it seems he has been running this place here in Funabashi Kaijin since 1971. The nigiri sushi had thick cuts of topping, which was Surprising!!

The shari (sushi rice) is on the small side and bite-sized, which is really nice. The balance of sushi vinegar in the shari is also just right. As for the neta (sushi toppings), hmm, Manzoku. On top of that, the miso soup has a nice shrimp stock flavor. This is really deep and rich in taste. At the counter, people were having drinks in the daytime? Maybe regulars, and the atmosphere was warm and relaxed. I enjoyed the meal.

At first, I came in for lunch. The lunch menu offered delicious sushi at reasonable prices. The chawanmushi (savory egg custard) that came with the set was piping hot, and they served each item at just the right pace. The taisho (head chef) behind the counter kept track of the guests and worked smoothly with the staff to keep the restaurant running efficiently. Then I wanted to try the a la carte dishes too… so I visited at night. The sushi ordered piece by piece was… just as good.

An easy sushi spot to drop by casually. Being close to the station is a big plus. There were also autographs from famous people inside, so it seems like all kinds of visitors stop by. They have a wide variety of seafood Rice bowls, and you can eat well without spending too much. If the seafood Rice bowl is not quite enough, it is also nice that you can add sushi one piece at a time. The toppings were good too.

I found myself craving sushi again, so this was my second visit this month. Today as well, I ordered à la carte. The taisho (head sushi chef) quickly made each piece. They served seasonal sanma (Pacific saury) lightly seared. It was really delicious. Also, I tried tuna tempura for the first time this visit, wrapped in oba (perilla leaf) and fried, which made it light and easy to eat, and that was also very good.

For the shari (sushi rice), they use rice from Kashiwa, Chiba Prefecture, and vinegar blended from 3 kinds of akazu (red vinegar). The balance between the tang of the shari and the topping is said to be excellent.

They also offer a full lineup of seasonal small plates and lightly seared dishes made with fresh seafood. Every item pairs very well with Japanese sake and shochu, according to reviews.
The tempura, fried until light and crisp, is also popular. The ingredients vary depending on what is available that day, but besides seafood, you can also enjoy seasonal vegetables.

The owner trained at famous restaurants in Kansai. On this day, I had bo-zushi (pressed sushi) made with their special red vinegar rice. The yuzu flavor came through nicely, and the saba (mackerel) paired perfectly with the red vinegar. I also appreciate that they make the rice in the light, fluffy style I like. Personally, this is my favorite sushi restaurant in Kashiwa.

The sashimi was fresh and delicious, and I had my favorite sawara (Spanish mackerel) with salt. The seasonal takenoko (bamboo shoots) and hotaruika (firefly squid) stir fried in butter were both excellent. Of course, I also enjoyed the nigiri, which was tasty as well. The Wagyu nigiri had tender meat that melted in my mouth.

The sushi here pays close attention to everything from the freshness of the toppings to their production regions, and people say it is not only delicious but also comes with thick cuts that make it very satisfying to eat. The tuna uses wild caught fish, and is said to offer a melt in your mouth texture and rich flavor.
If you are not sure what to order, the “Special Gokujo Nigiri assortment” packed with recommendations is a great choice. The photo shows two servings.

The dishes other than sushi are also very good, and the lunch that lets you casually enjoy a wide range of menu items is popular. The "Sushi Soba Gozen set" in the photo is a hearty Gozen set with sushi, tempura, soba, and more, letting you enjoy Japanese cuisine.
They also offer a good selection of kids' sets that come with toys, so families with children can dine here with peace of mind.

・Hinoki ita-mori (cypress board assortment)
The 8 pieces had thick cuts of topping, and every one of them was very tasty. The fried oysters were also crispy on the outside and light inside! We were able to relax in the Private room tatami seating with a horigotatsu (sunken floor seating) setup. It felt a little luxurious for me, and both the food and atmosphere were very satisfying, so next time I’d like to visit for some kind of celebration♪

・Sushi Soba Gozen set
There’s something irresistible about the luxury of enjoying small portions of delicious food and tasting many different kinds at once. If that still doesn’t feel like enough, you can order extra sushi one piece at a time, so you can enjoy the world of sushi to the fullest without holding back. Since this is a restaurant rooted in the local community, the prices are also very reasonable, and the value for money is excellent.

Making the most of the strengths of its seafood company, this place uses only top quality fish carefully selected by professionals. Every topping is, of course, fresh and delicious, and they are also thick cut and satisfying to eat.
The photo shows the ever popular number one item, “Yamato 5-kan (5 pieces).” You can enjoy 1 piece of otoro (fatty tuna), 1 piece of chutoro (medium fatty tuna), and 3 pieces of daily fresh fish.

The lunch menu that comes with miso soup is also popular. They offer a wide selection of nigiri sushi sets and seafood Rice bowls.
The photo shows the popular standard item, the "kaisendon (seafood Rice bowl)." It is generously topped with nine kinds of very fresh neta (sushi toppings), including tuna, salmon, shrimp, and squid. The miso soup is also said to be tasty, with a good dashi flavor.

Once you visit Yamato, there are so many kinds of sushi you will want to try that it is hard to choose. You will want to order the recommended items written on the signs inside the restaurant, and of course the Jo Nakaochi that was sold out last time, plus the aji fry (fried horse mackerel) I always have to get on every visit! This time, I had the aji fry with the pink rock salt and lemon on the table (highly recommended!)

I really wanted to eat maguro (tuna), so I ordered three kinds of maguro all at once. The three were akami (lean tuna), chutoro (medium fatty tuna), and otoro (fatty tuna). They were incredibly delicious. I was Surprising. Maybe because this is Chiba, even the soy sauce tastes great. The silver-skinned fish was also good, but I ended up ordering the maguro again and again.

"Sushi Ikkai" is located inside Toriisaki Club HOTEL&SEAFOODS, with the concept of a sushi auberge.
In an elegant Japanese-style space with counter seats and Private room, you can enjoy authentic sushi prepared by a sushi chef who honed his skills for many years at famous restaurants. It is about a 15-minute walk from JR Kisarazu Station.

For both lunch and dinner, they mainly serve Omakase courses. The sushi toppings mainly use fish caught in Tokyo Bay, and they seem to offer many creative sushi pieces.
Every topping is said to be very fresh and delicious. It seems you can also choose the size of the shari (sushi rice), so if you prefer smaller portions, ordering a smaller size is recommended.

The evening "Sushi Kaiseki (Omakase)" and the daytime "Sushi Course Ikkai" also include single dishes made with seasonal ingredients. They are all known for being refined and delicious, and their beautiful presentation is part of the appeal.
People with allergies or ingredients they do not like can also dine here with peace of mind. The restaurant will check when you make a reservation.

The sushi is stunning, and the chutoro (medium fatty tuna) and akami (lean tuna) strike a perfect balance of rich fat and umami. The melt-in-your-mouth chutoro and the deep flavor of the firm akami bring out the full appeal of sushi. The uni (sea urchin) is also amazingly fresh, and the moment it hits your mouth, its ocean aroma and rich sweetness spread across your palate, leaving a luxurious finish.

The sushi uses akashari (red vinegared rice) and comes in bite size pieces, which is just the right amount for some guests. The aji (horse mackerel) and saba (mackerel) were especially good, and richer toppings like fatty tuna and kinmedai (golden eye snapper) were served lightly seared. The soup was also tasty, with very tender hamaguri (hard clam) in the clear broth and asari (Manila clams) in the red miso soup. Since we were the only customers there, the taisho (chef-owner) chatted with us in a friendly way, and we had a great time.

The “Jizakana Sushi (local fish sushi)” set is a standard menu item that lets you enjoy 8 pieces of sushi centered on jizakana (local fish) and 1 hand roll. It is served a few pieces at a time, about every 3 pieces.
The selection changes depending on the day, but it is well known for letting you fully enjoy local seafood and offering a high level of satisfaction. It also pairs very well with alcohol.

The most popular choice is the Omakase course, where you can enjoy jizakana sushi (local fish sushi) and daily changing kobachi (small side dishes). It also comes with the "yaki-zushi" the restaurant recommends as a must-try dish in the photo.
"Yaki-zushi" is sushi that has only the skin on the surface of the topping lightly grilled, which concentrates the flavor between the skin and the flesh, and it has a reputation for being excellent.

A sushi restaurant in Kamogawa where you can enjoy local fish. I ordered the jizakana sushi set (local fish sushi set). The sushi rice portions were on the smaller side, but after finishing the whole set I was very full and Manzoku. There were many unusual rolled sushi options, which made the meal fun. The owner and staff were both polite, and it was a very homey sushi restaurant.

I have been a repeat customer for over 10 years. No matter what you eat, the freshness and taste of the neta (sushi toppings) are always spot on, and I am completely Manzoku every time. The standout items might be the yaki-zushi (grilled sushi) and gratin. Whenever I go to Sasamoto, I always order them. The Omakase course may be the best value. The Japanese sake is also good.
