The Story
About This Place
Gourmet Sashimi sits at 215 Nguyễn Văn Hưởng in Thao Dien, operating daily from 10 AM to 10 PM. The dining room runs quiet and airy — private enough for conversations that need concentration, with décor that reviewers consistently describe as clean and beautiful without tipping into formal. Families make up a regular slice of the clientele, alongside small groups who have worked out that the 600,000 VND course menu returns approximately 14 dishes: a depth-to-price ratio that proves difficult to replicate at comparable Japanese restaurants in the area.
The sashimi is both the draw and the proof of concept. Platters arrive with salmon, tuna, and white fish, all flagged across multiple reviews for freshness. A telling detail: the wasabi served is authentic textured paste rather than the dyed horseradish powder common at most Vietnamese Japanese restaurants — a quiet signal about sourcing standards. Supporting dishes include a seared tuna appetizer, salmon salad, and agedashi tofu, the latter a reliable kitchen benchmark given the technique required to execute it correctly.
What separates the atmosphere from many izakaya-style spots is tone: the room is built for eating and conversation rather than rapid table turnover. Reviewers specifically note it suits meetings and extended family meals where ambient noise would be a problem — a positioning that fills a gap among Thao Dien's Japanese options, which tend to skew louder.
The 10 AM opening adds practical utility. Working lunches, late-morning family visits, and early dinners all fit the schedule comfortably, making it accessible beyond the typical dinner-only window of comparable spots in the neighborhood.

Gourmet Sashimi is outstanding! The assorted sashimi platter was stunning, featuring incredibly fresh cuts of salmon, tuna, and white fish. We also loved the seared tuna appetizer and the refreshing salmon salad. The agedashi tofu was delicious, and the authentic textured wasabi was a wonderful detail indicating high quality. Highly recommended!
Private space w good food! Highly recommend
If you choose a course menu of 600,000VND, you can enjoy about 14 dishes in a Korean restaurant way. And you will get full surely. So, if you want to try many kinds of dishes with good price, I recommend this course menu. To try more luxurious taste, I have not ordered yet. So I am not sure about other quality. Anyway it is famous that you can enjoy with 600,000VND.
We are so lucky to enjoy these kinds of fresh seafood in this hot Ho Chi Minh!!! How Gourmet Sashimi can bring law fish with so reasonable value? Let's feel real Tuna flavor in here!!! "Amazing" itself not enough to describe this restaurant~~~
