In Umeda, among the big rotating sushi chain stores, I visited "Kaiten Sushi Nipponichi Yodobashi Umeda Store" for the first time. When I entered at 11:30, I was seated at a table and planned to order, but there was a big sign saying that the touch panel was broken and orders had to be handwritten. It seemed like the touch panel had been broken for a while. I wonder why they don't fix it. I made a handwritten order on a special paper, and it took 5 minutes until the order was served. Was it crowded? It seemed like my order hadn't been processed. When I go to a new restaurant, I usually try tuna or yellowtail, but the one I had here wasn't to my liking. The slices were extremely thin, with lots of sinew making it difficult to eat. Since it took a long time from ordering to serving, I tried picking sushi from the conveyor belt, but none of them suited my taste. The prices are on the higher side compared to other rotating sushi chains, but I don't feel like revisiting. I hope they pay more attention to the table signs and menu.

My mom is the best in Japan♪ (Song: Takashi Hosokawa) There are different opinions about "Number One in Conveyor Belt Sushi"! It's true that most plates are around 500 yen, which can be expensive for the average person, and I wish the service was more professional. But their lunch sets are a good deal! The Nigiri Set for 990 yen includes tuna, squid, clam, salmon, eel, egg, and salad rolls, along with two tuna battleship rolls and shrimp. The portions are generous, with less rice and decently tasty toppings! The Red Miso Soup set is a must-try! This set is a good choice♪

You can use PayPay at the smoking area inside the restaurant. There is a reservation panel in front of the store that displays approximate waiting times. Skilled chefs prepare dishes starting from 130 yen. The food was fresh and delicious. You can order from a touch panel and the dishes are served with lids on a conveyor belt, ensuring freshness. It is also child-friendly.

It is located on the 8th floor of Yodobashi Umeda. I visited during the consecutive holidays. On holidays, this floor gets crowded after 12 pm, so we entered the floor at 11:30 am. Still, there was a wait of 4-5 people for Docomo. I was considering between Capricciosa and this place, but this place was not as crowded, so we decided to visit here. The prices range from about 300 yen to 500 yen per plate. It is a slightly higher-end conveyor belt sushi. There are touch panel screens at the table seats, and you order using them. I had tuna, fatty tuna, yellowtail, squid, and beer. The children had tuna, salmon, egg, and eel. It was decent, nothing special. I am used to conveyor belt sushi, so I can imagine the taste. It is just as delicious. The advantage of conveyor belt sushi is the convenience. However, in this place, the menu is limited. There are about half of the options compared to places like Rikimaru or Kaitenzushi Umeda at the same price range. Also, the table space is narrow for families. It is cramped for 4 people. If grandparents also come to Umeda, it will be tight for 5 people. Additionally, you can only order through the tablet at table seats, which is a bit inconvenient. The tablet does not have many items rotating on the belt. You need to order individually. The tablet is fixed and cannot be removed, so it may cause some inconvenience for families. Also, the recommended items are displayed above the belt, and you might end up ordering them if a staff member is in front of you. It was a bit inconvenient to have to search for recommendations on the tablet. Unlike Rikimaru or Kaitenzushi, you can directly order from the staff. The items ordered through the tablet are handed over by the staff, which felt a bit disorganized. The tablet seems to be used only for ordering, as the staff came to count the plates during payment. Finally, there were no small plates for soy sauce. The soy sauce provided here is of good quality. It is placed as it is. It is not a big deal. In 100 yen conveyor belt sushi, you can use empty plates for soy sauce. However, there is no space for empty plates on the narrow table here. Also, there is only one soy sauce bottle, and it is quite cumbersome to pass it around because of the acrylic board in the center. If you ask the staff, they will provide small plates. There is a place where small plates are placed for self-service, but I wished they were already placed at the table seats. Personally, I truly hope this restaurant does well. Comparing it to Kaitenzushi Umeda or Kantarou in Grand Front Osaka, the satisfaction level may be higher there, but the travel is difficult. It may seem like a short walk from Yodobashi, but with children and elderly people, the walk can be tiring. And the crowds in Osaka. It is not about COVID, but simply the sheer number of people which can be exhausting. Ideally, I would prefer to have everything in one building.

On a regular day around 2:00 PM, it was not crowded at all at a restaurant in the Yodobashi Camera restaurant floor in front of Osaka Station. It's not a 100 yen conveyor belt sushi place. There are both counter and table seating options. The table seats are divided by acrylic boards for splash protection, making it feel very cramped. The menu and acrylic boards are sticky and unpleasant to touch. I ordered a sushi assortment without paying much attention to the revolving sushi plates. Orders are placed using a tablet, which is also sticky. The lunch set of assorted nigiri sushi for 1650 yen was overall on the smaller side and the taste was average. The quality of the fish was better than the 100 yen sushi though. It came with chawanmushi (savory egg custard) and red miso soup. I wish there was a more reasonably priced set without the chawanmushi. The staff were very polite. Thank you for the meal.

I was wandering around Link's Umeda 8th floor, wondering what to eat, when my son said, "Mom, I want to go here! I want sushi!" We ordered: ● Extra large scallop ● Premium tuna ● Negitoro gunkan sushi ● Seared trio (eel, enokawa, scallop) ● Red snapper miso soup ● Chawanmushi ● Oyster in shell ● Squid (forgot to take a photo) The red snapper miso soup was full of fish meat and quite voluminous. The premium tuna was okay for ¥350. The extra large scallop was delicious for ¥450. The oyster and seared enokawa were fatty and tasty. The squid, although I forgot to take a photo, was delicious with a good texture and fresh shiso leaf. The total came to ¥2684. I feel like the chawanmushi wasn't included in the bill, but I already came back home. It's always sushi for my son when we go to a sushi restaurant, and I usually end up with just the rice. I didn't really want to go to a sushi restaurant with my son, but today he ate the rice too! If he's going to eat it, maybe it's nice to go to a sushi restaurant together sometimes. It was overall delicious for the price.

I learned a lesson when I checked the bill before leaving the restaurant and realized the total was more than expected. The sushi at Sushiro or Kura Sushi is much better than here. The fish tasted a bit off. The soy sauce for the sushi was just regular soy sauce from the supermarket. The "dashi maki butter" dish was misleading as it was neither a rolled omelette nor butter. It ruined the eggs. The menu was dirty and falling apart, making it unappealing. The partition on the table was also dirty. The service was not the worst but far from good. The person who seemed like the manager provided decent service. I don't understand how this restaurant stays in business. I will not be returning.

For those who love white fish, sea bream is a must, but the flounder here was exceptionally delicious. The shrimp had a unique aroma. The sushi rice wasn't too strong in flavor, making it easy to eat. The clam soup was made with red miso but wasn't too heavy, making it easy to drink. Despite other restaurants having order stops, we were lucky to get a seat here as it was still rotating.✌️

I had high hopes but couldn't find anything good about it. Both the food quality and service were disappointing.- Before even sitting down, they immediately asked "What would you like to drink?"- Itama-san, let's start after we're seated.- And also, the language used. Please speak politely until the end.- The otoro kaitenzushi was evaluated based on kaitenzushi standards. Please provide what is shown in the menu photos. The otoro lacked the expected fatty texture and the fish was tough. Not good.- AbaloneThe 4 plates of abalone were dry and lacked freshness. The first two plates were disappointing, followed by one more, and then one last plate. Not as expected. Disappointing.- My favorite, fresh snow crab legs were out of stock. It would have been better if they had informed me when I ordered. They almost handed me a plate of something else without asking...- Fish freshnessAt a kaitenzushi, I saw dried out squid on a rotating plate, with the squid curling. It was the first time I saw such poor quality fish being rotated. At a kaitenzushi where I often eat abalone, crab legs, otoro, and chutoro, I wanted to support this "Japan's No.1" kaitenzushi, but unfortunately, it was the worst kaitenzushi. A waste of money. No plans to revisit.

Tonight, I wanted to eat sushi! So, I decided to try "Kaiten Sushi Nipponichi" located on the 8th floor of Yodobashi Camera Umeda, which is said to be the best in Japan. It was Saturday night around 7 pm, and as expected, all the restaurants were crowded. I had to wait in line, about 5 groups ahead of me. The electronic board indicated a wait time of about 20 minutes, so I went shopping at Uniqlo downstairs. When I returned, I still had to wait a bit before finally being seated at the counter. Each seat had an electronic pad, but at the counter, you could either eat sushi from the conveyor belt or order verbally. The staff seemed very busy due to the long lines. Here is what I ordered: - Tuna trio - Salmon trio - Shrimp trio - Shrimp mayo gunkan - Kazunoko (herring roe) - Seafood yukhoe gunkan - Negitoro gunkan - Eel butter - Seared salmon - Squid - Tuna belly - Chawanmushi (savory egg custard) As I continued to eat, I noticed that some of the sushi was too cold. I wondered if they had just thawed it or if the fridge temperature was too low. Although nothing was frozen, there was a noticeable temperature difference between the rice and the toppings, making the overall value for money seem low.

We used this restaurant for dinner with two people. It was before 8 pm on a weekday, so we were seated at the counter smoothly. The restaurant was a conveyor belt sushi place, with families, couples, and office workers as customers. In addition to sushi, they also had fresh oysters, red miso soup, chawanmushi, and other dishes that complemented the sushi well. There were also side dishes like edamame and fried chicken, offering a variety of options beyond just seafood. I had fresh oysters with ponzu sauce that day. They also had rock salt available for seasoning. We tried a variety of sushi like shrimp, yellowtail, and seared salmon. The rice wasn't too big and the vinegar flavor wasn't too strong, making it easy for different preferences. The freshness of the ingredients was decent, though nothing stood out as exceptional. However, as a sushi lover, I found it to be a casual and enjoyable experience. The plates at this conveyor belt sushi restaurant are color-coded based on price, making it easy to choose and eat what you like without breaking the bank. It's conveniently located inside Yodobashi Camera, making it a great option for dining after shopping. I will definitely visit again next time!

February 8, 2021. I should have checked Tabelog before going... really deserves the low rating. Terrible cost performance, the fish was frozen and the rice was so cold that it was hard. The customer service was also not good. It feels like they are targeting inbound customers. It's like a Japanese restaurant overseas. I will never go there again. :)

I had a sushi lunch. The fish was fresh and delicious. The yellowtail was especially tasty.

From the outside, you couldn't tell, but the inside of the restaurant is very spacious with a nice view. You can enjoy the sushi and the scenery at the same time. It wasn't crowded inside, so I enjoyed trying various sushi dishes that were rotating around. The tuna, salmon, sea bream salad, horse mackerel, yellowtail, etc., were all made with good quality ingredients. Special menus like the tuna set and shellfish set were also delicious. The side dishes of red miso soup and steamed egg custard were also very tasty! Thank you for the meal!

There is no freshness in the dishes, the prices are high, and the service is careless. The lunch budget listed on the homepage is 900 yen, but with that amount, you can only eat 3-4 dishes. I felt sorry seeing unknowing foreigners enjoying their meal.

I want to eat fresh oysters. I ate them again. The cost performance is good, and I have been to this restaurant several times. I liked the way they served the oysters with rock salt. Thank you for the meal.

Recently, in conveyor belt sushi restaurants, many places only have a display of dishes on the conveyor belt, and customers have to order directly from the chefs. The quality and quantity of the sushi are good. The herring and marinated tuna are both 300 yen each and fresh. The onion salmon and steamed eel are also 300 yen each. The salmon roll with salmon sticking out is 400 yen and has a good texture. The shell oyster is 300 yen. The tuna belly is 350 yen and has a good balance of fat and freshness. The inari sushi is 130 yen and well-seasoned. The fried potato is 220 yen and has a strong potato flavor. The seared salmon sushi is outstanding, with a perfect sear and melt-in-your-mouth fat. The seaweed salad is a must-try at 130 yen. The meat udon is 400 yen and the tanuki soba is 300 yen. The quality of dishes varies, with some being delicious. The downside is that ordering through tablets can cause delays in receiving your food. It's better to order directly from the chefs.

I had dinner here. The atmosphere of the restaurant was bright and the staff were very friendly, making it a pleasant dining experience. The variety of sushi dishes was great and I think it's worth trying. I recommend stopping by when you're in the area!

The prices are high considering the location. The quality of the sushi is similar to what you would find at a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, but the prices are double. It would be nice if they raised the quality a bit to match the prices. They do have some rare fish like grouper, but if a family of five comes, it will easily cost two 10,000 yen bills. The barrier to entry is a bit high.

It was a cozy and casual restaurant!
