Visit and Queue Information

As the name of the restaurant suggests, there is only standing counter seating.

Depending on the timing, you may have to wait for several people, but since it's a standing restaurant, the turnover rate is good, so even if you wait, you'll probably be able to get in within about 10 minutes.

Items Ordered

This time I thoroughly enjoyed Nama Beeru (Draft Beer) + 11 kan + Owan (Soup).

For sushi, I looked at the menu and ordered whatever I wanted.

Now, let me introduce you to the menu we received this time.

Nama Beeru (Draft Beer)

First of all,Nama Beeru (Draft Beer)” We will start from.

The brand is Super Dry.

Usually it's because I'm returning from a whiskey bar, and today was no exception.

I had been drinking a lot of whisky, but this was my first beer of the day, so it was delicious.

Assortment of 3 pieces of bluefin tuna

There are 3 types of tuna: lean, medium fatty, and large fatty tuna, and it's bluefin tuna.

1st piece: lean meat

You can really feel the flavor and aroma of tuna and the iron content.

2nd piece: medium fatty

I get the impression that in addition to the flavor and aroma of the red meat, the fat has been added.

3rd piece: Toro

It gives the impression that more fat has been added to the medium fatty tuna, giving it a meaty feel.

Everything is delicious every time, but this time the medium-fatty one was the best.

4th piece: Surf clam

Next is surf clams.

When you put it in your mouth, you can smell the aroma of the ocean, and when you bite into it, you can feel the sweetness of the delicious surf clam.

5th piece: Aoyagi

This is Aoyagi.

It has a crunchy texture and a strong ocean feel when you bite into it.

When I bite into it, I get the impression that I feel more of an oceanic taste rather than a sweet taste.

6th piece: whelk shellfish

It's a whelk shellfish.

It has a chewy texture and a strong aroma of the ocean as soon as you put it in your mouth.

When you bite into it, you can really feel the sweetness.

3 pieces of squid

I ordered a 3-piece set of Yariika, Sumika, and Namagesonoika.

7th piece: Squid

It has a sticky and rich texture.

As you chew, the sweetness really comes out.

8th piece: Sumika

It has a sticky yet crunchy texture.

When you bite into it, you feel the soup stock and flavor rather than the sweetness.

9th piece: Namageso

You can feel the crunchy texture and the soup stock and flavor.

10th piece: Que

You can also order high-quality ingredients.

I can feel the flavor and a certain amount of fat.

11th piece: Small skin

The last one is small skin.

You can feel the acid and fat firmly.

seaweed bowl

Finish off your sushi with Kohada and finish off with a bowl of seaweed. .

It's the usual taste I drink in the basement of Ikebukuro.

The strong soup stock and seaweed feel are perfect for finishing the dish.

Impressions and Rating

The bill was Nama Beeru (Draft Beer) + 11 kan + Owan (Soup), totaling about 4,000 yen.

I chose slightly more expensive toppings such as shellfish and seasonal items, each costing 300 to 400 yen, so I ended up spending a fair amount of money, but I was very satisfied.

I think if you lower the rank of alcohol and toppings a little more, you can settle down to 2,000 yen, which is a little higher than a conveyor belt sushi chain.

I feel the same way about the taste, but if you're going to pay 10,000 to 20,000 for poor counter sushi, you'll be more satisfied if you visit this restaurant.

The atmosphere is definitely lacking. .

Lately, lines have started to form, so should I be happy that this restaurant is finally becoming well-known, or should I be sad that it's become a little harder to visit? .

Personally, I've been looking for a sushi or stand-up sushi restaurant that would surpass this one for a couple of years, but I haven't found one yet. .

It's such a good store.
