Kris ConcepcionJanuary 31, 2016The tuna set is mouth watering good and only 3000 yen. Well worth it for amazing sushi.
Brian BoeltNovember 17, 2016This is by far the best sushi i have ever had in my life, try the set menus and have a taste of all the different kinds. Very good value for money. Highly recomended.
Jessica ShimSeptember 4, 2017Amazing tuna!! It literally melts in my mouth. Also, there's good seating so if you have a larger party it is perfect. The bathrooms are also really clean
Victoria Georgina FernándezVarela LópezOctober 10, 2017This place is a must! So good we went there twice, the sushi is prepared in front of you if you are at the bar. Great service, great price and easy to order with the help of the english translation
Phil 🍔May 20, 2016Eel, tuna, octopus, scallop. All amazing. And the entire staff yells "aregato!" whenever a customer leaves. Seems like a popular tourist spot, but with good reason.
R CFebruary 6, 2017Fresh and juicy fish. The rice is a bit sour for my taste. Salmon, broiled fatty tuna, and flounder's fish sushi were my faves; unique and layered flavor.
Rohan ChughOctober 28, 2016Got there around 11. Popular place, so it had a lineup but they found seating rather quickly. The chef's are loud with their thanks each time someone finishes and it was pretty awesome!! 10/10
Mustafa Burak TurhanSeptember 17, 2017Definetely best sushi on earth. Fresh, delicious, affordable prices. Love this place...
Hao LiuOctober 23, 2018Great tuna combo and value for the money. This restaurant remains packed despite the closure of Tsukiji market nearby. Friendly chef who advises you what sushi not to dip in soy sauce.
JacquesJanuary 8, 2017Enthusiastic & enjoyable environment, cut to order sushi. Eel is the best ive eaten. Fresh sushi at an affordable price typically at tsujiki market. Professional service esp on queuing
Tash ConcepcionJanuary 31, 2016Order the tuna set. It'll be some of the best tuna sushi you've ever had.
Derek HessNovember 30, 2016A more commercial establishment but honestly the fish is and sushi is just as good as the famous places where you have the cue up for. The staff speaks English but is not too friendly.
Hessa Al-HammadiMay 14, 2017The sushi is very delicious their fish is like butter it melts in your mouth 😭👌🏼 so GOOD, (heaven on earth) and their service is excellent
Mëa CúlpaJuly 19, 2019Good Sushi. Opens 24h so it is a very good choice if you just made up mind to eat. I like the median Grease Toro which is the perfect mix of texture and buttery.
Stefano SchiaviOctober 20, 2018Nowhere near the best sushi. Whoever says this is the best has not tried true high quality sushi, period. However the value is very good, quality is not bad at all just not great, price is good- BaileyNovember 4, 2016Super clean, super fresh sushi. I chose the à la carte option to mix and match. NY has great sushi but obviously there's no comparison
Chris MallonApril 10, 2019Go for the deluxe set sushi - really nice selection with some basics and some really zany options (sea urchin roe, anyone?). Customer service is excellent too. Delicious.
Brian BimschlegerNovember 4, 2017Wow! This was our first stop in Tokyo and it did not disappoint. Delicious sushi, awesome vibe. At night, there was a line, most of which were locals.
Michelle A.October 16, 2015Great sushi, duh! But they also have other great dishes, check the seasonal menus here. The prices are pretty good too!
Vibeke PoulsenNovember 29, 2016This is the best sushi I have ever had, so fresh and flavorful! There can be a line, but its worth the wait!
Rodrigo Allimant AntoliseiFebruary 9, 2016Not fancy, but just SO good. Specially the tuna is amazing!!!
- Katerina👑🔨💍 IeromonachouApril 27, 2016Amazing tuna selection plate!! Loved the sea urchin too!! Best vfm!! Trusted by locals as well. Always crowded but friendly quick service!
- Eleni SardiDecember 3, 2015Absolutely amazing sushi, try the fatty tuna. Get a sushi bar seat and watch the guys work their magic. 🍣🍣
Zachary Bouzan-KaloustianSeptember 23, 2016Much shorter lines than inside the market, and what's better than sushi at 9 am? Whisky (served with cold beef) that's what!
Kit&kafoodleMay 1, 2017Nice sushi and sashimi but nothing to rave about, you can probably get just as good for cheaper around the market. The wait isn't very long though which is good.
Luis TorregrosaJune 29, 2018Best sushi. Brace for queuing up at least 30 min, especially if you are a large group. They have a guy sorting out the waiting list
Andrea GianfredaMarch 19, 2015Very good place and sushi (try "urchin" sushi), they welcome you happily saying something in japanese. So funny! Green teas as much as you want
KvMOctober 29, 2016Quality of fish is good, especially liked the fatty tuna. Prices fair. However, if you want a more local experience it might be better to take a seat in the small bar set-up sushi places
Jaroslav MichalcoMay 11, 2016Great sushi, especially tuna! You can simply show the cooks what you want and they will prepare it in front of you, totally fresh.
Magdalena MrázkováFebruary 26, 2019I mean... the sushi here 🤤 But be prepared to wait in a queue for a while to get in
Leigh QuindaraMay 14, 2015Delicious! We came here when we decided to bypass the lines at the more widely known spots in the market - and I'm so glad we did.
Cesar RetaAugust 8, 2017The Megurodon is really good. The food in general is delicious but a little bit pricey. Anyway, I recommend to try it at least once in japan.
Irmak SMay 1, 2015Not a massive queue outside like some other places in the area, and the staff are friendly, the fish is delicious and overall it's pretty great!
Calvin LeiOctober 5, 2014The eel, uni, and the shrimp (the 600 yens one) are money. And they are all freakishly cheap for a sushi quick bite.
Christos KNovember 2, 2015Great sushi restaurant in the fish district! You can choose the dishes that you like while they pass in front of you!
Josh GellersAugust 12, 2019A truly fantastic way to get the freshest sashimi you’ll ever eat. Old school.
Stephen 🥞🍱🍣🍛🍜🍘🍟🍔🥨🍰🥑October 11, 2016Very good sushi of all kinds! Not cheap but very good value. Would come again.
- CaglaAugust 16, 2018Great sushi place! Very tasty and fresh, made in front of you. Kind staff welcoming everyone. Definitely recommended!
Diana CostaJuly 4, 2015Gets crowded in the early morning but it quiets down around 9.30am. The tuna set is mouth melting and amazing, order it!
Hide KawanoMarch 18, 2017The quality of the fishes were no doubt top class, but I guess the texture of the rice (shari)has its hits and misses because it's not always cooked by the same person.
- CamilleSeptember 29, 2015Fresh fish from the Tsukiji Market next door. Very good and fresh fish. The tuna is great and the squid melt in your mouth.
Jia LiNovember 8, 2015It's 6am but you've just stayed up all night waiting for 15 minutes of dramatic tuna auction. Hot sake seems to go with this.
Lisa StarbucksMarch 27, 2017It's a good alternative for rainy days. I think the whole point of the fish market is missed though if you just visit a sushi restaurant. Sushi was nice but the selection is tailored towards tourists.
Seba 🍣July 25, 2018The best sushi place in Tokyo!! Go for the California roll and all nigiri sushi is so delicious.
- TwistedApril 12, 2016Definitely lives up to the hype. I'd recommend getting there early (as in opening hour), unless you enjoy waiting in line for a while.
- Dan MarriottAugust 5, 2019Tuna sashimi bowl was incredible. My companion thoroughly enjoyed the uni!
