About this place
Tucked within Adachi Market, Take Sushi is open from morning into early afternoon, serving a selection of nigiri, chirashi sushi, and rice bowls. It makes an appealing stop after shopping or for an unhurried weekend breakfast, especially with affordable early-morning service sets that offer a slightly indulgent start to the day.
A perennial highlight on the menu is the anago (conger eel), braised until soft enough to fall apart in the mouth. It can be enjoyed brushed with sweet-savory tsume glaze as nigiri, or featured prominently in lunch sets and early-morning anago rice bowls. Higher-tier platters such as the jo-sushi and tokujo nigiri showcase careful Edomae preparations, from kombu-cured white fish to glossy salmon roe pearls. Accompanying sets, the warm chawanmushi savory egg custard comes finished with a fragrant yuzu-infused sauce, complementing a light dashi clear soup to round out the meal.
Settling in at the counter allows diners to converse with the master while pairing favorite cuts with sake. The shop also caters to casual lunches with kaisendon and tekkadon, and accommodates takeout requests upon inquiry. With an easygoing atmosphere that welcomes solo guests and hours running until 14:00 in the afternoon, it is a practical spot to keep in mind for an early lunch or a morning drink.
