The omakase
A dinner in four movements
01

Small seasonal starters — chawanmushi, house-pickled vegetables and a sashimi course.
02
Nigiri
Twelve pieces of aged and cured fish, brushed with nikiri and served one at a time.
03
Temaki
A hand roll passed straight from the chef’s hands to yours, nori still crackling.
04
Kanmi
A quiet finish: tamago, seasonal fruit and matcha whisked at the counter.

Why Hinoki
Small room. Serious craft.
Fish with a story
We buy from four small fishermen and two Japanese auction brokers — and age most fish for 3 to 10 days.

Seasonal, always
The menu follows the Japanese micro-seasons — expect around six new pieces every two weeks.
Rice is everything
Koshihikari rice seasoned with two aged red vinegars, kept at body temperature all night.
