Philosophy

Mujō is a one MICHELIN star modern edomae-style Sushiya led by Executive Chef J. Trent Harris. We are inspired by the Japanese concept of ichi-go ichi-e, 一期一会, or one time, one meeting. Our goal is not to be a traditional sushiya, but rather to create an experience that represents who and where we are, while respecting and honoring tradition.

    The offerings, atmosphere and experience make this worth the money. The service is impeccable. My hair tie snapped while it was in my hair and the server immediately brought me another one!! The drink pairings were equally delicious- just note before you order, it is a LOT of alcohol especially for us ladies.

    The waitstaff are simply the best! Furthermore; this is the most knowledgeable team of chefs I’ve ever encountered. From insight to the water temperature that the fish was pulled from to the breakdown of the dry age process of fresh fish to the lesson on the importance of rice in sushi….amazing all the way around!
