Tsuke Edomae In Aust - North Browning

I hate to go against the grain but this was a very disappointing experience. We've been trying for almost 3 years to get a reso at Tsuke Edomae because we love very traditional omakase where the main focus is on the high quality of the fish. This was anything but that. The issue we had was that almost every sushi that was served to us was brushed with a soy sauce mix. It felt very heavy-handed as we couldn't taste much of the fish itself and everything started to become one note because it was the same jar of sauce used. Even something light and delicate as scallop was brushed heavily where we couldn't taste the sweetness. Also, the reso site mentioned they would serve uni from Kaihou which we were very excited about but we didn't get any uni. Instead, we got cheaper courses such as belt fish, madai, and tamago. There were 3 mackerel and 4 tuna courses (no otoro). I was hoping for more of a variety but that never happened. Overall we were sad this place was so hyped up and couldn't live up to it. Also, drinks are pricey but they do allow BYO, $36 cork fee per bottle up to 720ml, and anything above is additional $18 per 360ml.

Realizing you're eating one of the best meals of your life as you are eating it is wild. This isn't just a meal though, it's a whole experience, and it's so worth having!

The best omakase experience you’ll ever have so good that all other places you try omakase will be ruined by this experience. Chef Mike is amazing. Omakase is an art and that’s exactly how Chef Mike treats it. He is so passionate about what he does and is extremely well trained in this art. This is where you need to go for a traditional and authentic Japanese experience.

Amazing Omakase, chef Mike is such an artist. I would strongly recommend anyone who is passionate about sushi to go.

Absolutely fab omakase experience. Love Chef Mike and his stories. Had an amazing birthday dinner here and felt taken care of from the second we walked in the door. Make reservations as soon as they become available — you won’t regret it!
