Hiraso Nara

Decent sushi, limited menu. Watch out for the wasabi sauce—it was spicy! Hojicha tea was available on the table when I arrived. (July 2019)

I had a set meal that included 2 pieces of persimmon leaves sushi, which is Nara’s specialty for around ¥1,400. In my opinion, the sushi has tol much rice but it’s nice to feel the persimmon flavor from the leaves. The place was small and cozy and the staff was really nice.

Lovely little place. Tasty sushi.

Really good authentic style sushi restaurant! Can sit on the floor at the small tables! Very good food presentation and interesting flavours!

Very delicious Nara style sushi.

Just going down hill, not only the quality of food, which is for tourist and over price, also the service...If visit, best to get talk away...

Deliscious and reasonably priced sushi. Loved the Saba sushi.

It was one of the best Sushi we ever experienced in our lives. We are a young couple from Germany and ate the plate for three people. Because it tasted so amazingly good, we came to this place a second time. Thank you for the fresh and super delicious sushi!

Kakinoha (Persimmon Leaves) sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves is a Nara delicacy that has been served since the Edo Era.Slices of mackerel, salmon, sea bream and other fish are placed on top of fairly small amounts of vinegared rice and wrapped in persimmon leaves to form kakinoha sushi. With a gentle flavor, peeling back the leaves to eat the sushi releases the wafting smell of the leaves to further enhance its fine taste.We bought the eight pieces of kakinoha with the combination of both mackerel and salmon for ¥1306, absolutely a must try!
