Sushi Rei is tucked away in an unassuming side street in District 1 at the end of an alley, the place has only been open for a year but is already regarded as one of the best sushi places in the city.

For a decade, Sushi Rei has pursued Edomae sushi with unwavering discipline. From meticulously sourced Japanese seafood to the measured rhythm of an eight-seat counter, each omakase unfolds as a dialogue between chef, ingredient, and guest an experience shaped by patience, purity, and respect for tradition.

Following the success of its first season, Gourmet Vietnam Awards returns for Season 2 with a new collection of names and stories to celebrate. The Best Fine Dining Restaurant nominees reflect a dining scene that is becoming more confident, more personal and, above all, more exciting.
