ユキ&ユウキ
A cozy sushi restaurant run by a parent and child, with only a counter and about 10 seats. The atmosphere is extremely welcoming, and the sushi here is truly delicious! But that's not all! If you think about it, it's quite surprising for a non-conveyor belt sushi restaurant like this to be frequented by a poor office lady like me. However, at "Morioka Sushi," I can afford to come here every week! During lunchtime, all items on the menu are priced surprisingly low. All plates (2 pieces) are only 100 yen each! Items like salmon, tuna, squid, octopus, shrimp, sea bream, yellowtail, eel, horse mackerel, and rolled omelette are all available, and they are made fresh to order. The freshness of the ingredients is top-notch. Despite being so delicious, you may wonder why the prices are so low. A friend recommended this place to me, and I found out that they serve leftover ingredients from the previous day at a greatly reduced price for lunch the next day. Even though they are leftovers, the freshness is outstanding! If it's this good the next day, imagine how fresh it must be if you eat it on the same day! Some items may cost 200 or 300 yen, like simmered conger eel or ark shell. However, being able to enjoy these items at such prices is pure happiness! I ordered my favorite, seared eel, which costs 400 yen for one piece. The thickness of the eel and the smoky flavor for 400 yen is pure luxury. A small red miso soup is also only 100 yen. The payment system is based on the plates, with 100 yen plates and higher-priced plates distinguished by their shape and pattern. I usually end up spending around 1000 to 1500 yen when I have a beer with sushi, and on days without beer, it's around 700 to 800 yen. The restaurant is closed on Mondays, and lunch is served from 11:30 am to 2:00 pm. It's advisable to go early to ensure your favorite items are not sold out. The friendly banter between the parent and child owners adds to the enjoyable dining experience. Additionally, there are hidden menu items like seafood bowls, so don't hesitate to ask about them. You can also customize your order by choosing sushi with seaweed or as a battleship roll. By observing the orders of regular customers, I learn something new each time I visit. Personally, I give it five stars! Please note that there is no parking lot, so you will need to find a nearby parking area.
