People’s Review
I've always dreamed of eating the best sushi on earth and today I finally got the chance to do it🍣 Jiro Sushi is one of the most coveted meals ever and is worth a special trip to Japan. We had to book our seats months in advance! I don't think I can eat sushi the same way again😭😭😭 Definitely the best meal I've had!! #HungryTrendyTokyo
Sukiya-bashi Jiro. ***. It's amazing what one can do with such simple ingredients. I'll never forget this magical piece of toro. #throwback #sushi #amazing #michellinstar #threestars #bestsushiever #notoverated #legit #foodporn #instafood #japan #holiday #takemeback #otoro #tuna #lookslikebeef
