I went to a sushi izakaya because my senior was being loud about being bored the day after eating sushi. The chef was the same age as me and used to work at the previous sushi restaurant I visited. Now he has his own place and serves delicious sushi. I started with edamame, which is amazing in the summer. The dashimaki was generous in portion and filling. Suddenly, there was a loud crash outside, and it turned out to be a car accident involving an inbound rental car. We chatted about it and then our sushi arrived. The akami zuke was huge and delicious. Next, I had two pieces of shiny fish, which I really enjoyed. Lastly, I had some delicious and refreshing anago. It may be tough for them in this area, but I wished them luck and left. Thank you for the meal! (-人-)

I had a home-cooked meal, convenience store food, or my recent lunch situation. Sometimes I eat ramen. This day, I felt like eating rice. I wanted something a little luxurious, maybe seafood, so I remembered this place. - Tekka-don 1,300 yen It comes with plenty of tuna, two side dishes, salad, and coffee as a dessert, so it's a good deal. I thought it might be a bit luxurious for lunch, but sometimes you have to treat yourself to something delicious. The atmosphere seems like a place where good things happen. The friendly staff also made me feel at ease. Thank you for the delicious meal.

I made a special advance reservation for each of our favorite seafood bowls. I had the tuna bowl in the first picture. It was a luxurious bowl with crab, flying fish roe, salmon roe, scallops, and more. The tuna was incredibly delicious. Not only the seafood toppings, but the sushi rice here is also amazing. The combination of soy sauce and sushi rice alone is outstanding. The miso soup and chawanmushi were also delicious. The coffee after the meal was on a different level of deliciousness that even someone like me who doesn't know much about coffee could tell. The water was also delicious, with a gentle and rounded taste. It was so good that I would come back just for the coffee. I was completely satisfied on this day as well.

Delicious tuna can be eaten, so I visited this place on short notice because I'm about to freeze it soon, and this quality can only be enjoyed now. As you can see, it's quite a generous portion. Lean, medium fatty, fatty tuna, and medium cuts - such luxury. Even with a small amount of rice, this quantity is impressive. There's no way it wouldn't be delicious. The best. To put it mildly, the best. All this for only 1500 yen, which would surely surprise those from outside the region. If you were to eat this in a tourist area, it would easily exceed 3000 yen. Hokkaido is the best... By the way, the medium cuts bowl for lunch is apparently 1100 yen. And my favorite here is the filefish. I eat it with liver soy sauce. This liver soy sauce goes well with any white fish. In fact, it's exquisite on vinegared rice with just liver soy sauce. I was very satisfied this time as well.

I visited this restaurant that I have been wanting to try for a while. I arrived at 11:00 am when they were supposed to open, but the curtain was still not up. When I entered the restaurant after the opening time had passed, they were just putting up the curtain. They have hand sanitizer at the entrance and acrylic dividers on the counter seats. Lunch menu: - Seafood bowl for 1,500 yen - Tekkadon (tuna bowl) for 1,300 yen If you order before 12:00 pm, you can get it for 1,100 yen. Good deal. - Curry (3 types) for 850 yen Rafute (Okinawan Braised Pork Belly), Cheese Okra, Zangi (fried chicken) - Daily special for 600 yen Today's special was Pork Kimchi Bowl. I ordered the seafood bowl. While waiting, the owner made a complimentary coffee. The aroma of freshly ground coffee beans was nice. The seafood bowl had tuna, crab meat, scallops, squid, white fish, salmon roe, tobiko, and one more unidentified item (possibly fish stomach?). Everything was delicious, although I wished there was some pickled ginger. The vinegared rice was firm with a strong vinegar flavor. The soup was a cold mini soba. The soba had a good chewy texture. The side dish was simmered burdock root and konjac, and simmered tuna maybe? Pickled vegetables were cabbage and cucumber. You can choose between hot or iced coffee after the meal. The freshly brewed iced coffee was easy to drink. (July 2021)

Sushika Hamazen in Susukino closed down a few years ago, but I heard rumors that they had reopened, so I decided to visit. The restaurant opens at 11:00 am, and I saw the lunch menu and lively banners outside. I entered the restaurant, greeted the owner, and ordered a Tekka Don set for 1300 yen. We chatted for a while, and soon my dish arrived. However, it turned out to be a seafood bowl instead of the Tekka Don I ordered. Both dishes were delicious, with fresh ingredients and well-prepared rice. The owner seemed unchanged and we had a pleasant conversation. The meal also came with a side of soba noodles, which were a nice touch. I was surprised to find out that there was an early bird discount before 12:00 pm, making the meal only 1100 yen. It was a short but enjoyable visit, and I look forward to coming back for a drink next time.

I had a seafood bowl and it was delicious. I enjoyed a variety of fresh sashimi, each piece was tasty. I grated the wasabi and put it on the fish, dipped it in soy sauce, and ate it with the well-seasoned vinegared rice. It was so delicious and satisfying. There were so many different types of fish on the bowl, so I could enjoy a wide range of flavors. Personally, I'm not usually interested in lean tuna, but this one was fresh and well-cut, so it was delicious. I was also happy to see some simmered vegetables in a small dish. The soba noodles were cooked just right and had a nice texture. The regular price was 1,500 yen, but I ordered before 12 pm, so it was only 1,100 yen, and I also got a complimentary coffee after the meal. It was a great deal. Thank you for the meal!

The restaurant is close to my company, so I go there occasionally. The Tekkadon is really delicious and has great value for money! It might seem a bit pricey for lunch at 1000 yen, but when you think about being able to eat a delicious Tekkadon for that price, it's worth it! It's packed with tuna, so I recommend it to tuna lovers!

I arrived in Sapporo for work the next day, so I used GOTO to find a cheap place to stay. I got there around noon, so I parked my car early and decided to grab a drink before checking in. There was a special local delicacy fair going on, so I started with some small bites and drinks. The dried mullet roe with sake was irresistible. The chef and I exchanged banter as we drank from early afternoon. I also enjoyed the dashimaki tamago and silver cod marinated in saikyo miso. I had a great time eating and drinking, and even though I felt guilty for imposing, there were no other customers around. The cozy atmosphere and great food and prices make this place perfect for a relaxing meal. Keep up the good work! Thank you for the delicious meal!

I'm happy that I can have such high-quality beef bowl for lunch! There were other delicious looking lunch menu options, so I would like to try them next time. Also, I was surprised to see that there were three types of curry available!!

Near Sapporo Station at lunchtime on May 11, 2020, I visited "Kitamae-ya Yuusen," which opened recently. The owner, who used to work at a Japanese restaurant in Susukino, decided to start his own business despite the challenges of the pandemic. The seafood dishes, including fish, are highly praised. I arrived at the restaurant around 12:30 during lunchtime. The door was slightly open, possibly for ventilation, and the Halloween decorations inside and outside were excessive. I sat at the counter, which had 6 seats, and ordered the "Nakaochi Donburi" for 1,100 yen (including tax), which came with coffee. The tray arrived in about 10 minutes, containing the Nakaochi Donburi, miso soup, pickled Chinese cabbage and cucumber, pickled daikon, pickled takana, chopsticks, chopstick holder, small plate, and soy sauce dispenser. The Nakaochi Donburi was generously topped with colorful lean tuna, offering a great quantity and quality for the price. The slightly firm vinegar rice paired well with the tuna. Although I felt the miso soup lacked depth in flavor, the overall taste balance and cost performance were good. The walls were decorated with posters of campaign products, including the New Year's sushi set for 3,300 yen per person and the October campaign offering the Chawanmushi for 600 yen. The menu was full of tempting options. I enjoyed a recommended sake after the meal, and then had coffee served in a teacup. I look forward to coming back for a leisurely evening drink. Thank you for the meal.

I received a LINE message saying that there is new shirako available, so I couldn't resist and decided to go! I have known the owner of this place for quite some time, we are the same age, so our interactions are always enjoyable. We had maguro nakaochi, dashimaki tamago, saikyo-yaki gindara, shirako, akami zuke, and anago, each with 2 pieces. The ingredients are of good quality yet the prices are surprisingly affordable. The dashimaki tamago was particularly delicious. Speaking of which, the owner has a background in Japanese cuisine, so it's no wonder the food is so good. The shirako was also delicious, just the right size for my liking. Every sushi I tried reminded me of the now-closed Hamazen, which made me happy. The place was quite crowded, so it seems like they will be doing well for a while. Thank you for the meal!

I had una-don (eel rice bowl) for lunch on Ushi no Hi (Day of the Ox). I was surprised to find out that they also serve lunch, and the restaurant was clean and nice. The portion size was just right, not too much or too little. Since it was Ushi no Hi, many other customers were also eating una-don.

Lunch includes a medium fatty tuna rice bowl with a side dish and soup for 1000 yen, and it's rumored to be delicious. I made a reservation for dinner and negotiated to have the medium fatty tuna rice bowl even though it's usually only available during the day. They mentioned that if they have the ingredients, they can make it. The restaurant only has one master chef and seemed busy even during the pandemic. The meal included an appetizer, pickled vegetables, the medium fatty tuna rice bowl, and sashimi with medium fatty tuna, horse mackerel, horse crab, and spear squid. The medium fatty tuna rice bowl was surprisingly delicious, with perfectly melting texture and not too heavy. The sushi rice was outstanding in flavor and texture, not needing soy sauce. I was most surprised by the horse crab, which was served with liver sauce instead of soy sauce. The liver sauce was incredibly tasty, and it paired well with beer. I would go back just for the liver sauce. Although the service was a bit slow due to the chef working alone, I would definitely want to visit again because the food was so delicious.

I was worried because I heard that the sushi restaurant in Susukino was going to become independent, but opening during such a difficult time with the coronavirus is unexpected. It must be tough, but I went to support them by getting takeout. It's a new place and the interior is beautiful. I wonder if it's a takeover from somewhere else? They offer a variety of dishes, including pizza. Many restaurants in this area are currently closed, so there seems to be demand. The sushi is really good, with items like marinated tuna and conger eel. They even gave me a discount on most of the menu items since they are new. I know it sounds like an advertisement, but the food is definitely worth trying. I hope they succeed and help liven up the area.
