Matsumi

Hamburg


Celebrated sushi chef Hideaki Morita creates excellent Japanese fare at this 2nd-floor restaurant where virtually everything is unassuming, except for the food. Besides sushi, there are various teriyaki grills, a bevy of tempura dishes and washinabe (a stew of fish and vegetables that boils at your table). Explore the sake menu.
