I went to the Hachioji store! I went for lunch and ended up eating too much (lol). Everything was perfect in terms of hygiene, probably because of the various things that happened. The chawanmushi at Sushiro is really delicious! This time, I also tried the ramen! It's interesting to have ramen at a sushi restaurant, especially at a conveyor belt sushi place.

Visited a major revolving sushi chain on Sunday at 4:00 PM. Ordered a beer for ¥610 and various other items. It was a holiday sushi time, but the sushi wasn't flowing on the conveyor belt. Instead, we used a tablet to place orders, which was convenient. Ordered mainly tuna and they arrived one after another. The tuna and yellowtail were satisfying! However, the portions were small and for ¥610, it felt expensive. Overall, had my fill at the holiday revolving sushi. Thank you for the meal.

I finished work early, so I decided to have a quick drink at Sushiro. It seems that Sushiro has mostly eliminated customer service. From entering the store, being seated, ordering, and paying, everything was done through machines. I was a bit confused by the machine at the entrance, but other than that, the process was smooth and convenient. The sushi itself was surprisingly delicious, despite being cheap. Some items had good value for money. However, some dishes like ikura were mostly cucumber, and the beer had little foam when served from the machine. Considering the low prices, I thought it was understandable. Overall, it was a satisfying meal.

I knew that there was an open sushi restaurant along Eurod near Hachioji Station North Exit a while ago, but recently I have been away from revolving sushi because I have a favorite non-revolving sushi restaurant. On this day, I visited a large chain restaurant for lunch after a long time. I had tuna, seared tuna, flounder fin, minced tuna with green onion, pork cutlet, fresh octopus, conger eel, sardine, etc., and enjoyed a delicious meal. The freshness and quality of the ingredients were clearly superior to other large chain restaurants. It was a delicious meal. With 8 plates of 100 yen, 7 plates of 150 yen, a 380 yen cold sake, totaling 2453 yen excluding tax, and with a 50% PayPay SoftBank user coupon, I received about 1200 yen back in points, making it a great value meal.

Yay! A Sushiro has opened at the north exit of Hachioji Station! I went there and had two pieces of maguro for only 110 yen. It's amazing, right? And it's delicious too. The plates are not expensive, I usually stick to the 110 yen plates like aji, maguro, pickled maguro, salmon, and negitoro, and I'm fully satisfied in both my stomach and heart. By the way, at Sushiro, the sushi with negitoro and pickled radish is called magutaku, not torotaku. Lastly, I was surprised by the non-face-to-face system. It's already common for the sushi you order to automatically come to your table, but at Sushiro, seating (table assignment) and payment are also done without face-to-face interaction. You only need to call a staff member when paying at the end. Amazing!

I went out to Hachioji for a late lunch, and ended up at Sushiro near the station. As always, I only order the 100 yen plates for lunch because the quality is already so good at that price point. This time, I had 10 plates of sushi, and the fatty horse mackerel was particularly delicious. It's great that they always have special items on the menu during lunchtime. The tuna was also fresh and satisfyingly large. The rice was well-packed, which added to the overall satisfaction of each piece. When my favorite items are on special, it makes me want to come back for more and enjoy sushi with some drinks during lunchtime. Can't wait to do it again!

Date: Tuesday, around 7:00 PM Reservation: Available Waiting time: None Number of people: 1 person Seating: Counter Frequency: First visit Food menu: - Special Matsusaka beef nigiri ¥300 (excluding tax) - Natural shrimp ¥150 (excluding tax) - Mekabu, nagaimo, natto gunkan ¥100 (excluding tax) - Kazunoko Matsumae-zuke gunkan ¥100 (excluding tax) - Otoro ¥100 (excluding tax) - Sea bream ¥150 (excluding tax) - Master's One Strike Eel Spicy Ramen ¥350 (excluding tax) - Akaiika tasting (raw, charred soy sauce) ¥100 (excluding tax) - Kohada ¥100 (excluding tax) I had been interested in the Master's One Dish that they have been offering recently, but kept missing the chance to try it at Sushiro. Currently, the main focus is on Ichirinhanare, with collaborations with Sushi Jin and Respiration being discontinued once sold out. Hoping that they still had all the items available, I visited the branch that had opened near JR Hachioji Station's north exit, which I had not noticed until recently. It had been about 8 years since my last visit to Sushiro. Upon arrival, I received a numbered ticket regardless of seat availability. As there were empty seats, I was promptly seated. However, it was quite crowded. I sat at the counter, with acrylic dividers separating the seats, but the spacing was narrow. Personally, I am more concerned about the distance between seats than the presence of acrylic dividers. The sushi does not flow on a conveyor belt, and all orders are placed via a touch panel. Looking at the menu, it turned out that the only remaining Master's One Dish was the Eel Spicy Ramen by Ichirinhanare. My initial plan of just trying the Master's One Dish and leaving quickly was shattered. (As of August, the next collaboration menu is now available as well...) So, I changed my plan. I had been thinking of trying the chain store products judged by top-class craftsmen on Job Choon to see if they are really delicious, and I finally did it. However, my last visit to Sushiro was in December 2020, and I assumed that the menu had changed since then. After some research, I found the judging results of the menu at that time: - Special selection of natural bluefin tuna 7 pieces: Passed with 7/7 - Delicious salmon negitoro 2 pieces: Failed with 1/7 - Assorted 3 types of domestic tiger pufferfish: Passed with 6/7 - Super large cut! Red snapper 2 pieces: Passed with 6/7 - Kazunoko Matsumae-zuke 2 pieces: Passed with 6/7 - Double toro 1 piece: Passed with 5/7 - Natural shrimp 2 pieces: Passed with 4/7 - Mekabu, nagaimo, natto gunkan 2 pieces: Passed with 7/7 - Special Matsusaka beef nigiri 1 piece: Passed with 4/7 - Kesennuma-produced fukahire nigiri 1 piece: Passed with 6/7 I had ordered the remaining 4 dishes and the Eel Spicy Ramen. First, the Matsusaka beef nigiri... Not passed. The meat was a bit dry, lacking in flavor. Later, when I tried other dishes, I strongly felt that if I were to pay 300 yen for this, there are many other things I should try instead. Next was the natural shrimp... Passed. It had a good balance of sweetness and umami, with no unpleasant smell. Mekabu, nagaimo, natto gunkan... Passed. Very sticky and flavorful, with a good combination. The ingredients themselves also did not disappoint. Kazunoko Matsumae-zuke... Not passed. Personally, the saltiness was too strong. I did not order the 7-piece bluefin tuna for 980 yen, as the Otoro for 100 yen seemed more appealing. But surprisingly, it was very delicious. It had a perfect balance of fatty and tender texture without being too heavy. If this is what you get for 100 yen, it seems like the best value to order about 10 plates of this and enjoy the meal.

I went to Sushiro, located about a 3-minute walk from Hachioji Station! I thought it would be empty on a weekday night, but it was packed!! Truly, sushi is popular!! I made a reservation through the Sushiro app and it was the right decision☆ The check-in process was completely done by machines. There was a note saying that reserved customers should check in at the machine, and I managed to figure it out after some confusion (it was a bit tricky). I was called in about 5 minutes. There were a lot of families and students. There are rotating lanes, but it seems like the sushi doesn't rotate anymore. The sushi is small because it's 100 yen (obviously). For a cheap and filling meal, it's good, but if you're willing to spend a bit more, you can get much tastier sushi for a few thousand yen, so I might take a break from 100 yen sushi for a while!

It's a 6-minute walk from Hachioji Station. The interior of the restaurant was quite spacious with several counter seats and many table seats. I visited because I was curious about the sushi introduced on Hirunandesu, and it was even more delicious than I expected. It was really good.

There is no staff to guide you to your seat or handle the payment. It's a contactless conveyor belt sushi restaurant. You only have to interact with the staff when counting the plates for payment. This setup is perfect for the current COVID situation. The cost performance is good, the taste is okay, but I will still use it.

I entered the store right after it opened, but they didn't have udon noodles and got my order wrong. It was a disappointing experience.

JR Hachioji Station North Exit, 3 minutes walk from the Eurode, you will find "Sushiro Hachioji Station Mae Store". It's the first Sushiro near Hachioji Station! It was really crowded when it first opened, but recently, if you avoid peak times, you can use it without waiting. This time, I used it for takeout... Since it's a new store, you just need to scan the QR code that is sent to you, and you can pick it up at the automatic souvenir locker stress-free. It's a lifesaver in the age of COVID! Also, even though almost all the items at Sushiro are priced from 100 yen to 300 yen, the quality is high! It's recommended for a quick snack or dinner.
