Rome

Japanese restaurants in Rome

  1. A

    Sushiko

    This nondescript San Lorenzo lane is an unlikely place to find Rome’s best sushi, but here it is, with the freshest fish served up as sushi and sashimi, plus rolls, tempura and teppanyaki. It’s tiny, with only 24 covers, so book ahead. It makes financial sense to go set menu rather than à la carte.

  2. B

    Doozo

    Doozo (meaning ‘welcome’) is a spacious, Zen restaurant- bookshop and gallery that offers tofu, sushi, soba (buckwheat noodle) soup and other Japanese delicacies, plus beer and green tea in wonderfully serene surroundings. On the street parallel to noisy Via Nazionale, it’s a little oasis, particularly the tree-shade courtyard garden. The perfect escape if you’re craving a break from pasta.

  3. C

    Hasekura

    Favoured by actors and celebrities, tourists and Japanese expats, Hasekura has a simple interior and extremely good food. As well as sushi and sashimi, there is excellent tempura and traditional meat dishes.
