Items Ordered
This time, I thoroughly enjoyed Nama Beeru (Draft Beer) + 12 pieces.
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.
It's my first drink of the day and it's after work so it's 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.
This is the one I order every time.
1st piece: lean meat
It has a sour taste and a tuna aroma.
2nd piece: medium fatty
The impression is that in addition to the acidity and aroma of the red meat, the fat has been added.
3rd piece: Toro

It's a large fatty tuna, so it's fatty, but the flavor of the sinew is especially good.
Everything is delicious every time, but this time the fatty tuna was the best.
Great value 3 pieces
This is a 3-piece set of Nakaochi, Kiss, and Bonito.
I don't know how much you save compared to ordering a single item, but I guess it's a good deal because it comes with a discount.
4th punch: Nakaochi
Above photo left
It's like a rice ball.
You can feel the sticky, rich flavor and fat.
5th punch: Kiss
It has a crunchy texture.
The flavor is modest and is overpowered by the sourness of the sushi rice.
6th piece: Bonito
It has a chewy texture and a hint of iron.
3 pieces of squid
I ordered a 3-piece set of Yariika, Sumika, and Namagesonoika.
This has also become a regular order.
7th piece: Squid
Above photo right
It has a sticky and rich texture.
As you chew, the sweetness really comes out.
8th piece: Sumika
Center of photo above
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
Above photo left
You can feel the crunchy texture and the soup stock and flavor.
10th piece: Surf starfish string
It was a little late that day, so all of my favorite shellfish were sold out. .
I ordered a string of surf clams that I barely had left.
It tastes pretty normal. .
11th piece: Yellowtail
It has a slight smell, so some people who don't like it may not like it.
However, personally, I think this smell is delicious, so it was one of my favorites.
12th piece: Ganhyoraki
I asked for dried gourd rolls to finish the meal.
I ordered it with wasabi, and it has a mature taste that allows you to enjoy the sweetness and spiciness.
Impressions and Rating
The bill was Nama Beeru (Draft Beer) + 12 pieces and my wife's order, for a total of about 7,500 yen.
I think my wife ordered about the same amount.
You can eat whatever you like and it costs around 3,000 to 4,000 yen per person, which I think is expensive compared to conveyor belt sushi, but the satisfaction level is much higher.
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.
