Enjoy the taste of Edomae sushi
Located on the Asakusa Kannon Dori shopping street just minutes from Asakusa Station, Asakusa Sushi Sakae is popular with locals and offers a relaxed atmosphere. Its numerous regulars include many members of the Omo staff.
Established as a branch of Ginza’s long-running but now sadly closed Edomae sushi purveyor Sushi Sakae, the restaurant is all about preserving its traditions. The chefs particularly pride themselves on their anago (conger eel), a staple of Edomae sushi. Kept alive in tanks in the restaurant, the eels are carefully prepared and served with a generations-old secret sauce. This is where to seek refuge from the hustle and bustle of Asakusa and enjoy reasonably priced counter sushi without worrying about dining formalities.
