About this place
One dish that catches the eye at Tobiuma is “Excuse Sushi”, served in portions of 8 pieces. Diners who have ordered it have described it as delicious, and its name stands out among the restaurant’s sushi options. It costs 930 yen. Other choices include an assorted platter of seared sushi with 5 pieces, as well as nigiri and seared nigiri served as 1-plate portions of 2 pieces. You can choose a platter or build a meal by adding smaller servings as you go.
For a hot-pot-centred meal, consider the seafood yosenabe with prawns, chicken and seafood, or the seafood Tonma nabe, made with the same ingredients in a specially prepared spicy, savoury broth. The menu specifies the flavour styles, so you can choose between a Japanese-style broth and a spicier pot. Small plates, beer and other alcoholic drinks are also available, making it easy to add a few dishes to share around the table. One diner recalled spending a relaxed evening in a tatami room at a work gathering, so Tobiuma may also suit groups looking for a place to eat together.
