Ginza Kyūbey's Ginza Honten sits at 8-chōme-7-6 Ginza, Chuo City, Tokyo, and holds three Michelin stars for its Edomae sushi. The restaurant is counter-only, and seats are booked through direct phone reservation rather than online systems, which makes it a hard table to secure without advance planning.
The kitchen serves lunch from 11:30 to 14:00 and dinner from 17:00 to 22:00, Tuesday through Saturday. The restaurant is closed on Sundays and Mondays. Pricing falls into the luxury tier, consistent with a Michelin three-star sushi counter, though the restaurant does not publish set menu prices; confirming current omakase pricing by phone is recommended before booking.
Ginza Honten is the flagship of a small group of Kyūbey locations across Tokyo and Osaka, including counters inside the Keio Plaza Hotel, Hotel Okura Tokyo, and Hotel New Otani. According to the restaurant's own announcements, the business marks roughly ninety years since its founding, positioning it among Tokyo's long-running Edomae sushi houses.
For anyone planning a visit, the single practical step is calling ahead: 03-3571-6523. Given the counter-only format and the restaurant's standing, walk-in seating should not be expected.
