musashi

i went to musashi based on the reviews here and i have to say i wasn’t impressed. i had #3, which arrived with strangely textured salmon, and filling in the rolls that tasted suspiciously like canned tuna. i wouldn’t go back, even though it’s not very expensive.

They don’t make good chinese food!
I went there with a friend and we both ordered chinese style dishes (veggies and noodles or with rice) and they were so bad. The veggies with noodles was like what you get in the train station yet cost 3 times as much. My advice: They probably make better sushi.

Lunch menus for 5-6 euros.

At this price no complaints.

Except: they don’t use Japanese rice for anything except the Sushi, which is a shame, the Katsu Curry would be so much better with proper Japanese rice instead of the Thai (?) rice they use.

I love this tiny corner of japan in Berlin! Sushi is delicious, the owner is genuine and price are affordable!

Musashi is one of my 5 top budget restaurants in Berlin, along with Meyman (Middle Eastern) and Hoai Nam (Vietnamese). I come here as often as possible to have the glorious maki with grilled salmon - part of their "Angebot 3", which for 6,50 euro also includes miso soup and a couple of sake nigiri.

Green tea is 0,50 euro, water is 1,00 and beer is 1,50.

Drawback: Place is too f-ing popular with hordes of young, trendy people occupying especially the outdoor seats in summer. Leave my favourite sushi joint alone, please! (Just joking!)

Best sushi in Berlin in my book. Not the most creative sushi dishes you'll eat but if you just want really good plain sushi made by an experienced japanese sushi-chef, this is the place to go.

The quality is very good.
It's of course more expensive than a local Imbiss but the prices are ok.
And well... it's very tiny.

Good, small japanese imbiss-restaurant.

Good quality overall. To me looks like ingredients here still have their original flavour (i.e. tofu, chicken). Quite always full even though it does not take long to find a free seat/spot.

Menu offers a pretty wide choice between entrées, salads, japanese sushi, tempura, and other solutions (i.e. chop soey) for the ones who do not eat raw fish.

Highs: quality, prices

Lows: pretty small (18 places)

My favourite: edamame (steamed soy beans), maki sushi, miso chicken chop soey

really one of the better sushi places in the city that i’ve been to. the sushi chefs are actually japanese. it’s inexpensive for the quality (by berlin standards). i used to go here pretty often when i lived in the area. be aware: it’s so tiny that i could hardly classify it as a restaurant. i wouldn’t go with more than a couple friends because it’s normally jammed in there. it’s not the sort of place that you spend a lot of time in.
