Description

Opened in 2020, this is the first outpost of Tokyo's famed restaurant Den outside of Japan. Exploring the vast repertoire of Taiwanese produce with traditional Japanese techniques, Sho serves a single menu including two signature dishes lifted from Den: a green salad made with 10+ local vegetables that have been fried, steamed, ground or pickled, and two versions of kamameshi, which may include local yam, Brussels sprouts and sakura shrimp.

Review summary

Sho in Ostuni is a Japanese restaurant praised for its high-quality, fresh ingredients, particularly sushi and sashimi prepared by a Japanese chef. The compact, well-designed interior offers an authentic atmosphere. While many guests appreciate the excellent food and friendly service, others criticize the limited menu, small portions, and perceived high value-for-money ratio. Some negative reviews highlight issues with staff attitude and cleanliness. Overall, it suits diners seeking genuine Japanese flavors in a cozy setting, though those prioritizing variety, large portions, or consistent service may find it lacking.
