Our wishes
We aim to become a Sushi restaurant of “linger”.
From the “lingering senses” our meals give bite to bite,
to the “lingering emotion” that may be felt after your visit.
We wish for our customers to long experience the subtle linger of joy with a smile.
Our dishes will bring the sense of seasons on every plate,
to be enjoyed with the joy of pairing them with our carefully chosen selection of wines.
The Karatsu-ware platters, Sukiya-zukuri atmosphere,
and our utmost hospitality -
We prepare these all for the sake of your lingering delight.
Please be our guest and experience the long lasting linger at Sushi Sakai and Ga-Ho-Jin.
2nd Floor
Sushi Sakai
An Edomae style Sushi restaurant, awarded three stars by Le Guide Michelin
Up to twelve guests can be served at a time.

We also have wine and Saké selected by our sommelier to brighten up the occasion.
3rd Floor:
Ga-Ho-Jin
Our second restaurant has three private rooms, located in the same building as Sushi Sakai.
“Ga-Ho-Jin” is a Zen word and a story that symbolises “the preciousness of encountering people”.
The premises were named as the expression of gratitude from the owner chef Sakai for all the guests and his apprentices. The apprentices will be serving at this restaurant with love and passion inherited from Sakai.
Available for reservations, whole room rent-outs for groups up to 7 people per room, and for families with children.

Grand Opening
Dear Valued Guests and Friends,
We are delighted to announce the grand opening of our third restaurant, named 在掌(Zaisho), on July 3, 2024. It's located on the same floor of the same building as Sushi Sakai.
Sushi Sakai has been open for 11 years, and we've been running our second restaurant, 我逢人 (Gahoujin), for almost 5 years. We would like to express our gratitude to all our loyal customers and esteemed partners for your continued support and trust in our restaurants over the years. We are very pleased to open the new restaurant here in Fukuoka once again.
The name 在掌 (Zaisho) comes from the Zen phrase "明珠在掌", which translates to "Your precious treasure is already in your hands". With this Zen spirit in mind, we will continue to develop and improve our cuisine and services. We look forward to welcoming you all to 在掌 (Zaisho) for a memorable dining experience.
Chef 原 凌弥 (Ryoya Hara)
Chef 水鳥川 英 (Akira Midorikawa)
