Soichi Sushi opened on Adams Avenue in 2019 and was among the five local restaurants that were recognized by Michelin last fall as “new discoveries” when the company paused publishing its annual guide due to the pandemic.

Master chef Soichi Kadoya, whose nearly three decades-long sushi career started at age 16 and includes five years at Sushi Tadokoro, another acclaimed local sushi bar, runs the University Heights restaurant with his wife Raechel, their three daughters, and a small staff.
