[Visit Date] November 18, 2022 On the last day in Sapporo, we decided to end with sushi and visited "Sushinomasa" at Sapporo Central Wholesale Market. We didn't make a reservation, so we decided to just go for it. We considered going early in the morning, but ended up checking out of the hotel first. It's about a 10-minute walk from Nijuyonken Station on the municipal subway, but the route from the station to the central wholesale market is quite winding and complex, so be careful. It's on the first floor of the Maruka Fruit Building in Sapporo Central Wholesale Market "Sapporo Asaichi." The building has a nice market atmosphere. We arrived at 9:50 am, and when we peeked through the slightly open door, there were no customers inside. We decided to enter, and when asked if we had a reservation, we were able to be seated without one. Phew. Later, at 10 am, three people with reservations arrived, but it didn't fill up. We ordered the "Omakase 10 pieces" for 3,200 yen. The owner handles everything by himself. He may look tough at first glance, but his manner of speaking is gentle and he comes across as a nice person. The sushi included medium fatty tuna, flounder, scallop, seared salmon, snow crab, greater amberjack, surf clam, sweet shrimp, salmon roe, and sea urchin marinated in soy sauce. Particularly good were the sea urchin and surf clam. The freshness of the sea urchin was exceptional. As for the surf clam, it was the most delicious clam sushi I've ever had. Perhaps it's because of the thorough preparation in addition to the freshness. If I hadn't had breakfast at the hotel, I would have ordered more individual pieces. Sushi restaurants in the market are really great. I would like to visit again.

I visited around 7:30 in the morning. There were only three other customers at the 7-seat counter that day. I ordered the omakase sushi set with 15 pieces and miso soup for 4,000 yen. The sushi included herring with a nice texture, savory seared salmon, creamy crab miso, crunchy abalone, and finished with sweet seasonal purple sea urchin from Rishiri Island. The owner was managing everything alone, but he kindly answered my questions about the fish. I had a very satisfying and enjoyable time in the morning.

Cheap, delicious, and super fresh!! Highly recommend making a reservation from the first thing in the morning! It's best to enter the restaurant as soon as it opens! The chef's choice of 15 pieces for 4000 yen. The quality is amazing and it's incredibly delicious. It was so good that I almost forgot to take some photos. Honestly, I debated whether to post them or not! LOL

When I visit Sapporo, I always make sure to stop by Asazushi if the timing is right. This time, I had the chef's choice with negitoro roll. You can enjoy classic tuna and seasonal fish from Hokkaido. The portions are generous but the sushi is small, so you can easily eat them even in the morning. I would love to visit again when I go to Sapporo. I think it's better to make a reservation before going.

When it comes to eating out in Sapporo, shopping is a must. Before that, the first place that comes to mind for breakfast is this restaurant. Today, I enjoyed the chef's choice of 10 pieces of sushi. The lineup is as follows: sourced from the market and freshly made. These are the best sushi pieces. The only thing that caught my eye was the photo of a gorilla. Tuna, flounder, scallop, salmon, crab, squid, horse mackerel, sweet shrimp, salmon roe, sea urchin.

Arrived at 6:40 in the morning!! We were lucky to get a table for 4, and right after that, 2 more guests with reservations arrived making it a full house. Last time I tried to visit, the chef was sick or something, so this was actually my first time dining here!! The chef had a typical sushi chef vibe!! Needless to say, the sushi was delicious, but personally, I couldn't get enough of the texture and aroma of the salmon!! It was so rich!! Taste: ★★★★★ | Attention to detail: ★★★★⭐︎ The outer market is full of temptations, but this place is definitely worth checking out!!

I visited the restaurant early in the morning on a regular day. Although the opening time was 7:00, the curtain was already up so I was able to enter without a reservation. I ordered the Chef's selection of 15 pieces of sushi for 4000 yen, which also came with a seaweed soup. I wrote down the types of sushi I wanted to eat on the order form, but since it was my first time, I went with the Chef's selection, which included: medium fatty tuna, flounder, scallop, salmon, snow crab, horse mackerel, surf clam, sweet shrimp, ark shell, conger eel, golden cuttlefish, king crab, miso-marinated salmon roe, and sea urchin. The sushi was very fresh as it was a sushi restaurant, and each piece was aged to perfection for the best taste. My favorites were the sweet shrimp and the various types of shellfish. The sweet shrimp was particularly delicious with a rich sweetness. The rice was slightly larger than usual. I was full after eating the 15 pieces of sushi. The shrimp season was ending soon, and today was the last day for fishing them.

I had the "Leave it to the Chef" 10-piece sushi set, including flounder, scallop, salmon, snow crab, mackerel, surf clam, shrimp, salmon roe, sea urchin, and green algae miso soup. I was completely satisfied. It's better to make a reservation or call in advance because sometimes they don't accept walk-ins. The chef is friendly and approachable.

I visited "Sushi no Uomasa" located in the morning market next to the Sapporo Central Wholesale Market on a Saturday at 10 am for the first time (reservation). It was my 6th meal during my business trip in Hokkaido. I ordered the "Chef's Choice Sushi" for 3,200 yen. The restaurant was fully seated. It took about 5 minutes from ordering to the first sushi being served. The 10 pieces I received were: Chutoro, Hirame, Hotate, Salmon, Zuwai-gani, Kanpachi, Hokki, Tako, Amaebi, Ikura, Uni. The sushi was served by the chef with soy sauce already applied, so I enjoyed it as it was. The amount of soy sauce and wasabi was just right, allowing me to savor the flavors of each ingredient. They were all delicious, but I especially enjoyed the Chutoro, Ikura, and Uni. I look forward to trying the 15-piece Chef's Choice next time on an empty stomach.

I arrived at Sushizushi Fish Politics in the building attached to Sapporo Asaichi, the Sapporo Central Wholesale Market, at 7:30 on Monday morning, but the 9-seat counter was full. I waited for about 15 minutes outside until a seat became available. I ordered the chef's choice of 10 pieces of sushi and a watered-down corn shochu with seaweed soup. The freshness and deliciousness of the sushi in the morning were exceptional. The corn shochu had a pleasant aroma and was easy to drink. The chef's choice started with medium fatty tuna and flounder. The small rice balls were topped with fresh and fatty medium fatty tuna, followed by the mild flounder. The scallop was juicy and had a good texture. The salmon, crab, surf clam, button clam, shrimp, salmon roe, and sea urchin were served in that order. The dishes were so delicious that I forgot to take photos. With such fresh ingredients, the chef's choice of 10 pieces for 3200 yen was a great value. I also ordered additional dishes of kawahagi, turban shell, and engawa. I traveled by train from Sapporo Station, and it took about a 10-minute walk from the nearest station, but it was definitely worth it.

I made a reservation around 9 in the morning and the friendly master is running the place alone. The sushi ingredients are indeed fresh and delicious. It would be even better if there was a bit more vinegar, but it's so delicious that I don't mind. I am grateful. I would like to visit again when I am nearby.

A market with a good atmosphere where you can casually enjoy delicious sushi. The quality of the fish is good, and the beer is great, but it's clear that the price reflects the quality. However, for the price, they provide a satisfying meal. No plans to revisit at the moment.

I went to my first morning market starting from 7 a.m. I made a reservation on the day and was able to visit. I had the best sushi with friends I hadn't seen in a while. It was worth waking up early. I will definitely visit again when I go to Hokkaido.

We visited the restaurant on a weekday in February around 8:30 am with 2 people. They accommodated us even though they had a reservation at 9 am. We ordered the omakase set of 10 pieces of sushi, along with shirako, akagai, and crab miso. Each piece of sushi was very delicate and delicious. We will make a reservation for our next visit.

Off-market Sapporo Asaichi area. A popular restaurant among the 100 warriors of the Hyakumeiten 2021. Today, I visited here with the purpose of having morning ramen in Susukino, but all the places were closed, so I came here instead. This is a popular restaurant that requires reservations, but I visited without one! When I entered the restaurant, I realized that the chef was working alone, so I was worried that there might not be enough shari, and I felt sorry for causing any inconvenience. The interior of the restaurant is small with an L-shaped counter. The nigiri sushi starts at only 100 yen! First, I had some seaweed soup. The soup had a strong dashi flavor and was richer than the usual miso soup at sushi restaurants. The dashi was delicious and the aroma of the seaweed was pleasant. For the nigiri sushi, I started with flounder and chutoro, with the soy sauce being brushed on top so there was no soy sauce on the table. The chutoro didn't look impressive, but the slight sweetness of the soy sauce matched well with it and it was to my liking. The flounder was thick and delicious, and the soy sauce matched well with the white fish. Next, I had seared salmon, which was delicious. The scallop had a moist and melty texture and was very tasty. The snow crab looked fancy but lacked flavor. The horse mackerel had a weak ginger scent but was relatively tasty. The hokkigai had been simmered to a soft texture. The texture was high-quality, like the neta at a top sushi restaurant, but I would have preferred a bit more flavor. The sweet shrimp was moist and had a sweet and high-quality taste. The ikura was plump and had a very fragrant aroma that paired well with the seaweed. The sea urchin was melt-in-your-mouth and delicious. Overall, I stayed for only 11 minutes as I had requested to enter the restaurant, so I couldn't take good photos, but in the end, I was satisfied with my visit. The shari was at the right temperature, perfectly firm, and melted in the mouth cleanly without any stress. The size of the neta was "slightly larger" compared to nationwide standards, smaller than the ridiculous sizes at gourmet conveyor belt sushi restaurants, and smaller than high-end sushi restaurants, especially for shellfish. The sea urchin and other ingredients at this price point make it a great value. There were no particularly striking items, but the sushi showcased Hokkaido's ingredients and is recommended even for those not used to sushi restaurants. The order form makes it easy to understand the prices for your preferred nigiri sushi. The 15-piece omakase set is only 800 yen more than the 10-piece set, so it's definitely recommended for the extra 5 pieces. There was seared kinki being served. I liked the atmosphere of the chef and wanted to take a picture, but I'll ask next time. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal♪♪

I visited before noon, and we were the only ones in the restaurant. We had very fresh sushi at a reasonable price! After that, two customers who had just finished their night shift arrived. It seems like it's not too crowded in the morning. However, the phone kept ringing with evening reservations one after another. Truly a popular place. The owner is not very friendly, but the fish was fresh. The only thing that bothered me a bit was that the rice was a little too big and hard. It's a matter of personal preference though! Thank you for the meal.

Visited a sushi restaurant located in Sapporo Central Wholesale Market on December 17, 2022. This is a place I always stop by whenever I visit Sapporo, ever since I was taken there on a trip 20 years ago. The current head chef is the second generation, not related by blood to the previous chef, but the deliciousness of the sushi remains unchanged. It has been passed down properly. It's a really small restaurant with only a few seats at the counter. By the way, it's almost fully booked by reservation, so booking in advance is essential. Even when I was eating, 3-4 phone calls came in, all looking to make reservations, but they were all turned down due to being fully booked. I also made a reservation by phone the day before, but all the early times were already taken. I visited around 9 a.m. and ordered the 10-piece chef's choice course for 3,200 yen and a tekka maki. The head chef serves each piece one by one, carefully timing it according to when I finish each one. Each piece of sushi is meticulously made. The portions are also generous. Everything is fresh and delicious. Truly fitting for a sushi restaurant inside the market. The miso soup with seaweed that comes with the sushi is also delicious. Tuna, white fish, scallop, horse mackerel, crab, salmon roe, sea urchin, and other fresh ingredients in the 10-piece set. The sea urchin was delicious~ After having the tekka maki, I added shirako and sardine, ending up paying close to 5,000 yen. In terms of cost performance, it may seem a bit high, but if you've come all the way to Sapporo on a trip, I think it's worth a visit. Thank you for the meal.

Popular sushi restaurant inside Sapporo Central Wholesale Market. I had some free time on a weekday morning, so I made a last-minute phone reservation and visited at 9:30 with one group of 3 customers already there. The chef mentioned that customers have been coming back since summer, and weekends are almost fully booked with reservations. The restaurant has only an L-shaped counter with 8 seats. The menu is clear with prices including tax. The "Omakase 15 pieces (4000 yen)" includes 10 pieces for 3200 yen. We were served miso soup with seaweed before the sushi. The 15 pieces included flounder, medium fatty tuna, scallop, salmon, snow crab, horse mackerel, surf clam, sweet shrimp, greater amberjack, conger eel, squid, crab miso, flying fish roe, sea urchin. The sushi pieces are prepared with simmered toppings so there is no soy sauce dish. The snow crab and seasonal flying fish roe stood out. They were very Hokkaido-like and the freshness of the ingredients was evident. The flounder had a nice texture and the scallop was crunchy, overall the sushi was good but not exceptional. The chef's down-to-earth personality and attentive service were very likable. The cost performance at 4000 yen is a bit questionable. If it were 3800 yen, the difference would only be 200 yen but it could potentially elevate the overall experience. Will I revisit? It's uncertain.

Located inside Sapporo Asaichi. I made a reservation in advance and went early in the morning. I ordered scallops, flounder, abalone, mackerel, button shrimp, salmon roe, sea urchin, medium fatty tuna, and crab. Miso soup is included. The sea urchin, button shrimp, mackerel, flounder, and scallops were especially delicious! Sweet, fresh, and tasty. The seaweed miso soup was also delicious.

I went to a sushi restaurant in the market and had tuna, scallop, salmon, squid, octopus, sardine, botan shrimp, salmon roe, sea urchin, herring, and blackthroat seaperch. The restaurant was not crowded, so I could enter easily. You can order omakase or a la carte. Everything was delicious. I recommend calling ahead before going. They may close around 10:30 if they run out of sushi rice.

In August in Sapporo, I felt like having sushi for breakfast. I visited Sushi no Uomasa in Sapporo, which is located next to the market. The restaurant is inside Marukuri Building, which is a building attached to the market. It's recommended to make a reservation before visiting this restaurant, although you can also walk in if they have availability. I made a same-day reservation over the phone and was able to secure a table. I ordered the omakase set for 2900 yen, which included 10 pieces of sushi. The set consisted of hirame, chutoro, scallop, salmon, snow crab, horse mackerel, surf clam, sweet shrimp, ikura, and sea urchin. Each piece of sushi was served with a soy sauce that had a hint of sweetness. The sushi was prepared in a way that made it easy to eat and enjoy. The rice was small and well-packed, with a good texture and mild vinegar flavor. Some highlights were the slightly seared salmon, tender and flavorful surf clam, and delicious sea urchin. Overall, the sushi was tasty, well-prepared, and offered good value for money. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was attentive. I left the restaurant feeling satisfied and looking forward to trying the 3800 yen omakase set next time. It was a delicious and enjoyable breakfast experience.
