Thanks to your support, we have successfully reached our third anniversary.
Ten years since we began operations – beginning with the opening of "Hana Matsuri" - we have continued to welcome so many guests and develop our reputation, relying solely on word-of-mouth, without purchasing reviews or spending money on advertising. Our reputation is entirely due to our loyal customers.

To mark this third anniversary, we have launched “IKOINO” and refreshed our website.
With the launch of "IKOINO", we remain committed to evolving and sharing Japanese culinary culture beyond sushi. Our ambition is still to be the only Japanese restaurant in Leeds that shares diverse aspects of authentic Japanese culinary culture, accompanied by an excellent selection of craft sake, as well as broader Japanese culture.

Whether you are traveling from afar specifically to visit Sushi Nakamura or visiting Sushi Nakamura to celebrate a special occasion, we are happy to welcome you to our intimate six-seat counter. We strive to ensure that every element of your experience - not just the cuisine - creates an unforgettable memory for you.

Thank you for your support for 10 years. We hope you will continue to support us for another 10 years.
We look forward to welcoming you.

HanaMatsuriをオープンしてから来週26日で10年！
そして、遂にこの日が訪れた！
Whitby, Yorkshireから届いた初めてのYorkshire産の食材…それは280kgの本マグロ！

280kg Whitby Wild Bluefin Tuna.

We serve authentic Japanese pescatarian *omakase* sushi using only locally sourced ingredients.

I am truly delighted to showcase local catch — specifically Yorkshire Bluefin tuna — at our location here in Leeds.

It is a privilege to work with such passionate fishermen.

I encourage everyone to visit and share in celebrating local fishing success and Japanese culture.

Chef Ishii , who left London and now works at Tokito in Tokyo, still gives me valuable advice despite his busy schedule.  Chef Ishii's friend, William , visited us.

"Spreading Japan from Leeds" and “A menu that reflects our suppliers".

Since opening HanaMatsuri in Meanwood in 2016, my restaurant and I have undoubtedly evolved and improved. We will continue to move forward with our ongoing desire to improve.

My restaurant, with only six seats, may be the smallest restaurant in the UK. I am truly honoured that William has featured my small restaurant in his newspaper column.

I owe so much to my suppliers, my customers (most of whom now travel from far away to visit us), my local customers, the delivery company that plays an important role in connecting me with my suppliers, and my family.  I would like to express my gratitude to everyone once again.

ロンドンを離れ、東京のTokitoでご活躍されている石井シェフ、ご多忙にも関わらず今でも貴重なアドバイスを頂いています。
その石井シェフのご友人、Williamさんがご来店されました。

「リーズから日本を発信」
「サプライヤーさんの顔が見えるメニュー」
2016年にHanaMatsuriをMeanwoodに開業してから、店舗と私は間違いなく進化、向上して来ました。そしてこれからも向上心をもって前に進んで参ります。

この度、席数6席しかない。イギリスのレストランの中でも最も小さなレストランかも知れない。私の小さなお店をWilliamさんに取り上げて頂きました。大変、光栄に思います。

これは私を支えてくれているサプライヤーの皆さん、今では殆どのお客様がリーズではなく遠い場所からわざわざご来店いただくお客様、地元のお客様、サプライヤーと私を繋ぐ重要な役割を果たしている運送会社さん、そして家族のおかげです。
皆様に改めて感謝の意を表します。

This was my first opportunity to take part in an event out side Sushi Nakamura/HanaMatsuri.

A great experience and very enjoyable to work with people so knowledgeable and passionate about their craft.

"A Menu Where You Can See Our Suppliers' Dedication”

We took a longer holiday than usual over the Christmas and New Year's holidays, taking the opportunity to visit our suppliers in the UK and Portugal.

We are fortunate to have such dedicated suppliers, whose high quality produce allows us to offer you the best version of our vision of Japanese fine dining.

Every dish at Sushi Nakamura is packed with the passion of our suppliers.
