Asuke

Asuke, located in Yakuin, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka, is a hidden gem recognized as a Tabelog Sushi WEST Top 100 restaurant, offering authentic Edo-style sushi. Inheriting the teachings of legendary sushi chef Takeaki Niitsu, the restaurant distinguishes itself by not using sugar in its shari (sushi rice) or other dishes, seasoning solely with salt and vinegar, which is particularly praised for its pairing with tuna. With only 6 counter seats, it operates strictly by reservation, and the friendly chef's engaging conversation is another highlight. It's cherished as a hidden gem offering excellent cost performance.
