Nagomi

Taking a seat here usually starts with aiming for the house specialty: a generously piled assortment of sashimi. Nagomi has built its following in Shimbashi as a relaxed izakaya where guests can tuck into substantial portions of fish at reasonable prices. Alongside the main platter, the menu is packed with temptations for seafood lovers, ranging from seasonal individual cuts of sashimi and raw oysters to grilled and simmered preparations.

Small Plates and Freedom of Choice

The kitchen's seafood offerings go well beyond raw presentations. Drinks pair naturally with crisp fried dishes such as shirako (milt) tempura and deep-fried mehikari (greeneyes), alongside richer bites like milt dressed with citrus ponzu or stuffed snow crab shell. For a distinctive finish to the meal, ordering the fragrant squid ink fried rice is a popular move.

A wide range of sake and shochu complements the cooking. The shelf holds everything from familiar labels to harder-to-find bottles, and asking the staff which pour matches a particular seafood dish makes for an enjoyable routine throughout the evening. Beer and wine are also on hand, allowing everyone at the table to toast with whatever they prefer.

Practical Details for Your Visit

The premises span from the 1st floor above ground to basement level 1, providing a calm atmosphere well suited to sharing a meal with friends or coworkers. Because the shop is popular and focuses on evening service, reserving a table in advance is strongly recommended. Credit and debit cards are accepted at payment, making it an easy choice for group gatherings and after-work drinks alike.
