TEN-MASA Tokyo

Ten-Masa sits in Kamimeguro, a five-minute walk from the Meguro River. This Japanese sushi and seafood restaurant holds a Michelin star.

The room runs smart and elegant, but the real draw is the relative isolation from the city’s busier hubs. Most sushi counters of this caliber in Tokyo force a frantic pace to accommodate the constant turnover of the central districts. By settling this far from the Daikanyama T-Site, Ten-Masa trades the typical congestion for a steadier, more deliberate flow. It is a better choice for those who value the quiet of a neighbourhood spot over the spectacle of the major tourist corridors.
