Minato

MINATO presents a focused Japanese dining concept in the Sonwik harbour district of Flensburg. The restaurant cultivates its distinctive style through traditional techniques, fine handcraft and a Japanese sense for detail. It offers carefully prepared courses, notes its openness to dietary requirements and special requests, and makes special arrangements for groups of six or more. The cuisine concentrates on pared‑back, reduced preparations that rely on traditional technique and an emphasis on simplicity — excellent fish and perfectly seasoned rice. Fresh ingredients underpin the kitchen’s approach to refinement. Hiro Suzuki is the chef and receives the trust of diners for the chef’s sequences. Specialties include Omakase (the chef’s surprise menu), the three‑course James Sushi Menu, and pairings of Japanese cocktails, selected wines and sake.
