Katabami is a counter-only sushi room set on the third floor of the InterContinental Yokohama Pier 8, tucked past an inner courtyard. The space seats nine guests at a single counter, with no smoking permitted at any time, and the focus is on Edomae-style sushi built around seasonal fish.
Service runs twice daily: a midday sitting from 11:30 to 14:30 and an evening sitting from 17:30 to 21:00, seven days a week. Lunch and dinner are both offered as omakase courses, and a dress code of smart casual applies. The restaurant is noted as English friendly, which should ease reservations and service for visitors from abroad.
Pricing sits in the upscale tier, consistent with a dedicated sushi counter inside a international hotel property. Local Kanagawa sake is served alongside the sushi, rounding out a menu built on seasonal selections chosen by the kitchen rather than à la carte ordering.
Reservations are handled by phone rather than online booking. Given the nine-seat counter, advance booking is advisable, particularly for dinner service. Confirm current holiday closures and any seasonal changes to lunch availability directly with the restaurant before planning a visit, as operating days have varied by month.
