Sushi Shinosuke is a counter-only sushi restaurant in Kanazawa's Irie district, having relocated there in January 2007 after opening originally in Komatsu in 1999. The restaurant seats guests exclusively at the counter, where nigiri is prepared and served directly to diners.
The menu draws on Hokuriku's regional seafood, changing with the seasons: sayori and torigai in spring, abalone, local abalone variants, and mantis shrimp in summer, mackerel in autumn, and yellowtail, crab, and cod roe in winter. Regional specialties such as sweet shrimp, gasu-ebi, nodoguro (blackthroat seabream), and bai shellfish also appear depending on availability.
This is a luxury-tier restaurant, reflecting the counter-only Edomae format and reliance on seasonal, regionally sourced ingredients. Service runs in two seatings, lunch from 12:00 to 14:30 and dinner from 18:00 to 21:00, on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday; the restaurant is closed Wednesday and Sunday.
The restaurant is located at 3-chōme-73 Irie in Kanazawa, a city known for Kenrokuen Garden, the Higashi Chaya geisha district, and the Nagamachi samurai quarter.
