" I've been coming to Minato for years, and it never fails to impress me. The quality of the sushi is consistently high, with generous portions that leave you satisfied. I usually sit at the counter and enjoy watching the chefs work their magic. The only downside is that it can get crowded during weekends, so I recommend going early. Still, the food is well worth any wait! " (*Curated Review*)
