Even though they close at 9pm, they kindly accepted us at 8:25pm. The three of us ordered one at a time. Last order is 19:45. I had a lot of different dishes, but personally, I was so moved by the plumpness of the conger eel (not the one in the photo) that I had another one, and it was an unforgettable taste.

There was an unfortunate clerk. The sushi itself is reasonably priced, so it's bound to be delicious, and it was. The time I went was around 1:30pm. Just as we entered, there were two or three groups of customers leaving one after another. By 2pm on a weekday, we were the only ones there. During that time, I kept asking for things I wanted to eat or things that were recommended for the day, but around 2:00 p.m., there was only one person making the food. When I ordered the grilled nodoguro (roasted seaweed) using the touch panel, the chef clicked his tongue and grabbed the sushi rice in the sushi rice box as if he was throwing it! The companion who saw it "Until what time?" I asked. I answered, "It's 3pm." Current time 14:08. We are still in the middle of lunch hours. Why does it have to be tongue-lashed? I felt really sick! I ate 10,000 yen worth of sushi for lunch and was quite satisfied, but I thought the staff's attitude was the worst customer service. I thought it was not worth paying 10,000 yen for. I've been there many times, and every time I'm disappointed by the attitude of the craftsmen. That's a shame.

This sushi restaurant is loved by locals and is so popular that it has even been broadcast on national TV. Arrived at 12:30 on Sunday. Reservations can only be accepted by phone. You can choose between a counter or a small rise. Booked for 3 people in a small group. There are two things to keep in mind when making reservations. 1: If you are 15 minutes past your reservation time, it will be treated as a cancellation, so please contact us by phone in that case. 2: Seat reservations can only be made for 60 minutes from the reservation time. Advance reservations are essential, especially for those who don't like waiting times. Card payment is possible. The ingredients are fresh and absolutely delicious. Be sure to enjoy the recommended items of the day.
