Please make all reservations direct to our email, we currently do not accept reservations by Facebook. Shinji by Kanesaka is an extension of 1 Michelin star Chef Shinji Kanesaka’s Edo-style sushi restaurant first set up in Tokyo’s exclusive Ginza district. The deep-rooted philosophy underpinning this endeavour is simply a passionate desire to share an appreciation for age-old Japanese culinary tra

ditions without compromising its integrity. Shinji by Kanesaka pays homage to the core of Japanese culture and art as defined by ‘kata’ and ‘do’. True to the spirit of its heritage, the restaurant is built on a carefully woven foundation of key elements which promises an authentic dining experience. An omakase menu (a menu selection entrusted entirely to the chef) is featured and skillfully executed by a native Japanese team of artisan chefs with Master Chef Koichiro Oshino at the helm. Further embodying the Japanese fine dining experience is the restaurant’s okami-san who makes sure that restaurant guests are cared for. Shinji by Kanesaka is Chef Kanesaka’s first venture outside Japan and it honours the same prodigious quality that made him an esteemed character in the culinary world.

Meet Dandan.

Having spent time in Japan, she developed a deeper understanding of Japanese culture and cuisine, a foundation that continues to shape her approach to hospitality at Shinji, where she has been part of the team for the past seven years.

Through her experience, she embraces the spirit of omotenashi, a wholehearted and selfless approach to service that goes beyond attention to detail.

“Being at Shinji, I’ve learned that service is not just about professionalism and attention to detail, but about creating a memorable experience for every guest and conveying the culture and spirit of Japanese cuisine through what we do.”

A reflection of the care and dedication built over 15 years.

We look forward to welcoming you here.

Hamo (鱧), or pike conger eel, is a revered delicacy in Kyoto cuisine, prized for its delicate flavour and firm, tender texture. For centuries, it has embodied refinement and tradition.

At Shinji, Chef Koba delicately prepares fresh hamo through a meticulous technique that requires true mastery, carefully navigating its many fine bones.

The result is a dish of exceptional subtlety, tender white flesh and a refined flavour that reflect the heart of our omakase experience.

This seasonal specialty is available for a limited time. Reserve your seat now via the link in bio.
