A dinner at this temple to raw fish may cost nearly as much as a one-way ticket to Tokyo, where the original Ginza Sushi Ichi revels in Michelin-star glory. If you’d rather not deal with visa issues and flight protocols, then might as well put down your money here. The chefs at the Bangkok restaurant have trained under Tokyo head chef Masakazu Ishibashi anyway, and are experts in their own right at putting together Edomae sushi omakase that feature some of the best cuts in town. This is premier league dining, with the best otoro tuna belly, the silkiest uni, and the freshest seafood, all flown in the same day from Japan.

The Bangkok branch of the immensely popular, highly exclusive sushi sanctuary in Tokyo is a minimally dressed space that sets the stage for precise knife work that’s a pleasure to watch.

Masters of their craft, this popular chain restaurant has become a go-to for great, generously portioned Japanese cuisine that deftly straddles quality and affordability. The sashimi is fresh, the nigiri are rightly vinegared, the maki rolls have the right amount of crunch, and the hot selection, such as the sizzling hotate and tempura, are just as good as the sushi offerings.

This quirky restaurant that loosely references the popular Wong Kar Wai film brings Japanese and Western influences together for a host of fun and unique sushi bites. Creative signature dishes bring on new flavor combinations, like Guilty But Happy, made with shrimp tempura, Ebiko, avocado, cream cheese and a drizzling of scallion oil. But if you’re after more classic sushi and sashimi, the omakase set has a satisfying selection of seasonal imports, including soft hirame (flounder) and hiragame (shelled clams).

Between its casual, no-frills setting and diverse menu, Isao is one of the most visited sushi restaurants in Thonglor, if not the whole city. Neighborhood regulars and hungry visitors come for its signature rolls, many of which boast well-balanced flavors that don’t detract from the freshness of the seafood. For example, Chicago Spicy Crazy with tuna, salmon, cucumber, avocado and spicy sauce has just the right amount of heat, while Caterpillar is perfect for lovers of unagi. The sushi sandwich, where fresh tuna and salmon is stuffed in between layers of ebiko-sprinkled sushi rice, also attracts a crowd.
