About
Master Katsu Nakaji carries four generations of sushi lineage from Tokyo's Hatsunezushi and has established his first permanent international outpost inside the multi-floor House of Ronin on Via Vittorio Alfieri. The counter seats ten, and the format is pure Edomae omakase: every course is prepared and served personally by Nakaji, reflecting a shokunin discipline that prioritises restraint, rice temperature, and fish ageing over spectacle. The Milan venue was initially structured as a recurring annual residency but has been confirmed as a permanent fixture, with regular seasonal editions and Christmas programming. Booking is through SevenRooms up to 60 days in advance; sessions sell out immediately.
Neighborhood & visiting

Hatsune Ronin sits in Sempione / Chinatown area, one of Milan's neighborhoods where authentic Japanese kitchens have taken root. Reservations are available online — for a focused sushi counter this is strongly recommended. Check the posted hours before you go — traditional sushi restaurants often close between service periods.

Why it's on Washoku Guide
  • One of only a handful of permanent Edomae omakase counters in Europe, led by a fourth-generation Tokyo sushi master — Katsu Nakaji's only restaurant outside Japan.
  • The 10-seat format guarantees an intimate, theatre-in-the-round experience with Nakaji himself preparing every course at close range.
  • At €250 per person, this is among the highest-calibre Japanese culinary experiences available in Italy — on a par with what the same tasting menu costs in Tokyo.
