“I’ve been a fan of Shige since 2004. His attention to detail and creativity are always evident. I also appreciate his willingness to share traditional non-sushi Japanese dishes. I am curious about all things Japanese and feel that it’s sad we only get to experience sushi, recently some Ramen, from such a rich culinary obsessed culture.”
Tony Najiola, Chef/ Owner, Central Market Restaurant
ABOUT SHIGE SUSHI
Washoku – Nature, tradition, and community; the art of Japanese cuisine
FRESH. AUTHENTIC. FAMILY.
Made with care from the finest seasonal ingredients, presented in an artful composition, and served with deep respect, Shige Sushi & Izakaya brings the real Japan to Sonoma Valley.
Raised in Tokyo, proprietor Shige Mori was immersed in a food culture much more nuanced than we see on a typical Japanese menu. Here and at his Cotati location they bring that food and philosophy to an American audience. You can choose from the finest sushi made from both staple and unusual fish as well as small plates and traditional donabe that capture the essence of washoku. While the menu is always rooted in Japanese fundamentals of flavor, specials are inspired by the season, the catch, and the harvest, and there is always something new to enjoy. A collector’s menu of premium sake will complement your meal and seasonal specials feature local fare.
和食—自然、伝統そして文化を融合させた芸術的な日本料理
しげ寿司&居酒屋では、選りすぐりの旬の材料を用い、芸術作品のように目と舌で楽しませてくれます。
そして真の日本料理をここソノマバリーに届けます。
横浜で生まれ育ったオーナーシェフである森繁一は、ありきたりの日本レストランのメニューと違い、もっと繊細で機微な日本食を創作します。常に”今”の日本での人気メニューを取り入れそしてコタチとソノマにてその信念に基づいた料理を地元の方に提供しています。
そこでは、定番の寿司メニューはもちろんのこと、珍しい魚や小皿料理、和食の真髄であるおもてなしも楽しむことができます。
ここのメニューは、日本人にとって大事な風味を生かした調理になっている一方、スペシャルはその時々、季節の漁獲あるいは収穫に基づいてお客様が楽しめるような創作メニューになっています。
“Shige and Toki are such hard workers and are always so consistent with the food they serve. We believe they have some of the best sushi in the county that is served in a warm and soulful place. Even with the extremely high quality of food that they serve, the restaurant is never pretentious and the prices are incredibly reasonable. They have all of the same qualities of a restaurant that we strive for.”
Andrew Truong, Chef/ Owner, Terrapin Creek Café & Restaurant
