Sakata, Japan
Koise
Koise places Sakata’s sushi culture in the context that matters: port-city access to fish, a compact counter format, and recognition on Tabelog’s Sushi EAST 100 selection for 2025. The appeal is not Tokyo-style theatre transplanted north, but a Yamagata coastal address where seafood, Japanese cooking, sake, and small-room hospitality sit close together.
