Sushisen, Japanese restaurant in Ostiense Piramide, Rome, Italy
Sushisen is a Japanese restaurant in Rome with two separate dining areas: one features a conveyor belt system with traditional dishes, while the other serves contemporary cuisine prepared to order. Both sections offer a range of sushi, rolls, and Japanese specialties tailored to their respective styles.
The restaurant was among the first in Rome to introduce the kaiten sushi concept using rotating plates. This approach helped shape how Japanese dining developed across the city.
The kitchen follows Japanese cooking traditions through skilled chefs who work with seasonal ingredients and classical methods. Diners can watch this craft unfold as dishes are prepared with careful attention to detail.
The restaurant opens Tuesday through Sunday from 19:30 onwards, with an iPad ordering system available in the à la carte section. Reservations are recommended, especially on weekends, to avoid waiting.
The establishment stocks an extensive selection of Japanese sake brands, including Hakkaisan and Kubota, available by the glass. This variety allows diners to explore different sake flavors throughout their meal.
