Finally.
A proper place to get sushi in the city.
Hiroki-San has the look, the vibe, and the quality dialed in. The kind of place where you walk in and immediately feel like somebody actually cared about the whole experience — not just the plate in front of you.
And the location? Killer. Tucked into the Book Tower, you can start with dinner here, then wander over to The Aladdin Sane right next door for a cocktail — all without ever stepping outside the building. In Detroit winter, that's not a detail. That's survival.
Now, the restrooms.
The restaurant shares its restroom area with the cocktail lounge next door, which usually screams capacity issue. But not here.
They're loaded with private stalls, so they actually handle the traffic well. It is a bit of a walk to get there, so accessibility isn't perfect, but they do have a larger accessible restroom toward the back, which is a strong plus. ♿️
They were clean, all-gender, European-style, and well stocked with nice paper towels, artisanal hand soap, and a diffuser that honestly added to the whole experience.
Sushi this good, paired with a restroom setup that can handle the night — Hiroki-San lands at a 9/10. Head over to The Aladdin Sane afterward for a cocktail to close out the night.

Reviewers describe Hiroki-San as a dramatic entrance — a spiral staircase leading down into a moody basement dining room inside the historic Book Tower — that backs up the hype with sushi and robatayaki built around weekly imports from Japan. Executive Chef Hiroki Fujiyama's menu and the room's atmosphere earn consistent praise as one of downtown Detroit's best new dining rooms. Reservations move fast, and the shared building with The Aladdin Sane and Kamper's Rooftop makes it a natural start to a night out.
