Ginzo Review

With a long counter from which to watch the sushi chefs in action and with the rumbling of trains overhead, this neighborhood restaurant offers reasonably priced meals from an English-language menu. The ¥980 set meal, for example, comes with six maki-zushi, nine sushi, soup, and chawamushi (egg custard). Because this is a very popular restaurant with local workers, avoid the weekday lunchtime rush.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
