A new counter sushi introductory restaurant, "Sushi Ginza Onodera MUSUKO Akasaka," will grand open in Akasaka, Tokyo on January 13th (Tuesday), 2026. Operated by ONODERA Food Service Co., Ltd. (President: Shinji Nagao, Location: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo), this new location marks the second MUSUKO restaurant in Tokyo.
The Ginza Onodera brand, operating under the concept of "From Ginza to the World," aims to share traditional Japanese cuisine including sushi, tempura, teppanyaki, wood-fired cooking, and noodles globally. Since its founding in 2013, the brand has expanded to 25 locations across 3 countries, with some restaurants earning Michelin Guide stars. At the annual Toyosu Market New Year's tuna auction held on January 5th, the ONODERA GROUP successfully bid on the first tuna for the sixth time, including five consecutive years from 2021 to 2025, serving it at both domestic and international locations. The sushi business has been particularly popular, with the flagship "Sushi Ginza Onodera Main Store" leading a range of formats from counter sushi introductory restaurants to conveyor belt sushi, training-focused sushi restaurants, and seafood bowl restaurants both domestically and internationally.
The new Akasaka location, designed as a "Counter Sushi Introductory Restaurant," offers a relaxed atmosphere that removes the barriers often associated with counter sushi dining. It delivers Sushi Ginza Onodera quality at exceptional value. Considering Akasaka's characteristics as a business district, the restaurant has prepared special menu items for working professionals, offering both culinary emotion and a comfortable space to unwind with colleagues after work. The menu includes the "Akasaka Limited Weekday Lunch Set of 8 Select Pieces" featuring 8 pieces of sushi with red miso soup for those wanting a quick lunch during work hours, and the "Seafood Ono-nomi" (seafood drinking set) perfect for solo dining or casual drinks with close friends.
