Located on the 5th floor of the historic Zou Building in Kitano, Kobe, Sushi Sugisaki offers an exceptional dining experience in an elegant and intimate setting.
The restaurant features a beautiful counter crafted from a single slab of Yoshino cypress, surrounded by natural earthen walls that create a warm and tranquil atmosphere.
While Kobe is world-renowned for its beef, the region is also home to an abundance of exceptional seafood known to those in the know. At Sushi Sugisaki, two experienced sushi chefs — one with more than 30 years of experience and the other a certified sake sommelier and owner-chef — create an omakase sushi experience centered on the finest seasonal seafood from Hyogo Prefecture, including the renowned waters of Akashi and Awaji.
Perfect for celebrations, business dinners, or an intimate meal with someone special, Sushi Sugisaki is also an ideal destination for visitors exploring Kobe.
Enjoy the flavors of each season, thoughtfully paired with Japanese sake, in an exclusive setting with just seven seats. Take your time and savor an unforgettable culinary experience at Sushi Sugisaki.

Up to 8 seats available for private bookings.
We look forward to welcoming you with warm hospitality.
A little secret awaits in your first Oshibori hand towel.
We source our ingredients primarily from Hyogo Prefecture, including Awaji and Akashi, as well as from across Japan. One ingredient we highly recommend trying is the red sea urchin from Yura, which is only available for a limited time during the summer.
Alongside traditional techniques developed during the Edo period, when refrigeration was not yet available—such as vinegar curing, soy sauce marinating, and simmering—we also serve sushi featuring ingredients unique to Hyogo Prefecture.
As the seasons change, so does our menu, with the dishes we serve evolving little by little throughout the year. We strive every day to create an experience that leaves you excited to discover what kind of sushi awaits you this month, and to look forward to encountering new flavors with every visit.
For our sushi rice, we blend red vinegar and rice vinegar to create a flavor that pairs perfectly with the ingredients of Hyogo Prefecture. We do not use any sugar. Our rice is carefully selected in consultation with a certified rice specialist, taking into consideration the season and the quality of each year's harvest.
Alongside the renowned sake of Hyogo Prefecture, we offer a carefully curated selection of rare and exceptional sake from across Japan. We invite you to enjoy a lineup thoughtfully chosen to complement and harmonize with our sushi.
Our sake sommelier will recommend the perfect sake to accompany your experience, taking into consideration the season, the composition of the course, and your personal preferences. Please savor the exquisite harmony between sushi, with its ever-changing character from one piece to the next, and carefully selected Japanese sake.
In addition to sake, we offer champagne and beer, perfect for a celebratory toast, as well as a selection of increasingly rare Japanese whiskies, wines, and shochu.
Please note that some rare beverages may be unavailable due to limited availability. We appreciate your understanding.
For guests who do not drink alcohol, we offer a selection of premium non-alcoholic beverages, allowing you to enjoy a special and relaxing dining experience. These innovative tea-based drinks are carefully crafted to complement the flavors of our sushi without overpowering them.
