Daiwa Sushi, Japanese restaurant in Toyosu, Japan.
Daiwa Sushi is a restaurant on the first floor of Block 5 at Toyosu Market, sourcing fresh seafood directly from the adjacent fish market. The menu focuses on omakase sets featuring seven pieces of hand-formed nigiri sushi, a roll, tamagoyaki, and traditional miso soup.
The restaurant relocated to its current location in 2018 when the inner fish market transferred operations from Tsukiji to the new Toyosu Market complex. This move allowed it to continue serving diners while maintaining its direct connection to the wholesale fish supply.
The restaurant serves omakase sets where chefs hand-form each piece of nigiri sushi in front of diners using traditional techniques. Each plate reflects the craftsmanship passed down through generations of sushi preparation.
The restaurant accommodates around 26 diners at once, and waiting before your meal is common. The meal itself is usually brief, allowing more people to experience the kitchen throughout the day.
The venue is often visited by local market-goers and remains less known compared to traditional sushi bars in other neighborhoods. Visitors often notice that the quick dining format makes it possible to enjoy a meal during a brief market visit.
