Isaribi's First Anniversary: Honoring Tradition with Unique Offerings

After eleven years of incredible service, Isaribi has celebrated its first anniversary since moving to Ueno. To commemorate this milestone, the restaurant is excited to announce an exclusive membership offering through the crowdfunding platform Makuake, which will run from October 23 to December 7, 2025. For just under 10,000 yen, patrons can experience a once-in-a-lifetime sushi experience that tantalizes the senses.

With 35 years of experience in sushi craftsmanship paired with the expertise of a certified sake sommelier, the head chef is dedicated to sharing delicious memories through sumptuous sushi experiences. Previously, their initial launch on Makuake saw a dramatic success with 195 memberships sold, achieving their goal in just 10 minutes. Now, due to overwhelming demand and wishes for a return, Isaribi is thrilled to announce this next chapter.

Nestled in a quiet corner of Ueno, Isaribi has transformed into a haven for sushi aficionados. In his journey, the head chef has trained in more than ten renowned restaurants across Ginza, Akasaka, and Roppongi, and built a loyal following in Kameari for over eleven years before relocating to Ueno. His vision combines the elegance of high-end sushi with the warmth of casual neighborhood dining, offering a unique blend that keeps customers coming back.

With a focus on an atmosphere where diners feel both welcomed and pampered, Isaribi embodies quality and comfort. The chef emphasizes, "The sushi experience at Isaribi is one that lingers in memory. I genuinely invite everyone to visit and experience it for themselves."

What makes Isaribi stand out is the warmth and love that the chef pours into his craft—the essence of their hospitality. Every interaction with customers and ingredients is infused with genuine care, defining the unique service of Isaribi.

So, why choose Makuake for this project? After years in Kameari, the move to Ueno sparked new connections and opportunities. Over the past year, they have welcomed new regulars and formed bonds within the community. “Although many still do not know of our restaurant in Ueno, we want to cherish our current supporters while weaving new relationships with future regulars,” the chef explains. This reflects their desire to expand and celebrate their anniversary with a second project.

What to Expect from the Exclusive Offer

1. Anniversary Special: Enjoy the omakase sushi and beverages, valued at 17,500 yen, at a significantly reduced price exclusively for the Makuake campaign. This welcome approach eases the experience for first-time visitors.

2. All-Inclusive Beverages: This unique event allows you to relish fine sushi and exceptional sake without concern for additional drink costs. An all-inclusive experience in the sushi world is rare and not to be missed!

3. VIP Card for Supporters: Each supporter will receive a VIP card offering monthly discounts for every visit. The card also grants the same perks to their companions, significantly enhancing the dining experience.

Isaribi is perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a casual gathering, date night, or family celebration. Here, you can savor the meticulously crafted sushi experience like no other. The synergy between the head chef and his partner brings a delightful atmosphere to Isaribi—“We are dedicated to crafting satisfying experiences for all our guests.”
