I went to the conveyor belt sushi chain restaurant called Nigiri Chojiro at the Ogura intersection in Uji for lunch on a holiday. Since it was a holiday, there was no lunch menu available, so I tried the "Hanahitohira" set meal. It consisted of 10 pieces of nigiri sushi including seared salmon, conger eel, and medium fatty tuna. It was delicious.

Kitsune Udon 418 yen, Tear Roll 198 yen, Kyoto-style Mackerel Sushi 352 yen. [Total] 968 yen. A slightly upscale revolving sushi restaurant. My stomach wasn't feeling great since this morning, so I wanted to eat something gentle. The three dishes were all delicious, and even the pickled ginger was tasty. However, there was too much seaweed in the Kitsune Udon. The seaweed flavor was overpowering the broth. I wonder if they intentionally did this to give it a more upscale feel? The counter area was not very systematic. It was not well-organized, which made it a bit inconvenient. Also, the behavior of the staff seemed more refined compared to places like Sushiro, Kura Sushi, Hamazushi, etc. Overall, I'm satisfied. Thank you for the meal.

Just a 4-minute walk from Kintetsu Ogura Station. This restaurant offers high-quality sushi that rivals traditional sushi restaurants, despite being a conveyor belt sushi place. They have a wide range of menus including grand menu, seasonal menu, seasonal set menu, and lunch menu. I chose my favorite toppings like botan shrimp nigiri, bluefin tuna, shirako, and seared salmon. I enjoyed delicious sushi to my heart's content. Thank you for the meal.

I had never been there before and had been curious for a long time, so I decided to go in since it was past the lunchtime peak. Ordering with the touch panel was easy and convenient. The sushi was fresh and delicious. The yellowtail had a nice texture and paired well with beer. The prices felt a bit high, but considering how tasty it was, I was satisfied. I now understand why this place has been loved for so long. Thank you for the meal.

I love sushi at Chojiro and often go there. I want to come back again because I want to eat a lot of different toppings, so I ordered small rice portions for everything except salmon roe. The flavors of the toppings were clear and delicious!

I went to dinner with my work senior. It wasn't the typical 100 yen sushi, so the fatty fish was really delicious.

I visited this restaurant for the first time in years. I arrived around 11:20 am before the opening time, and was able to write my name and number of people on the waiting board, then wait in the waiting area inside the restaurant. When the opening time came, my name was called and I was shown to my seat. Let's start with a draft beer even though it's lunchtime. I carefully selected the sushi. The best one was the Kyoto-style mackerel sushi. It's irresistible for mackerel sushi lovers. I also had a shrimp nigiri. When I took a bite, the tail moved and surprised me. Well, maybe he was more surprised to be bitten. Oh, it was delicious. It turned out to be a luxurious lunch. Thank you for the meal.

This time we went to "Nigiri Chojiro". Since it was a Saturday, there was a wait of just under 10 minutes. The restaurant has counter seats (where you can order directly from the chef) and table seats, and we chose a table seat. We ordered starting from the red miso soup, individual pieces of nigiri sushi, and assorted sushi. The fatty tuna was incredibly rich and melt-in-your-mouth. The medium fatty tuna, lean tuna, and negitoro were all delicious! The salmon roe was popping, and the mini sushi for spring, daikon salad, and other small dishes were cute and tasty. For dessert, my partner enjoyed the parfait, while I found the pancakes delicious and satisfying! Although it's a bit on the pricey side, the quality of the ingredients justifies it.

Today, I was in the mood for sushi, so I went to "Nigiri Chojiro Ogura Store" in Ogura, Kyoto! The location is 27 Rokonoki, Oguracho, Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, about a 3-minute walk from Kintetsu Ogura Station along Route 69. "Nigiri Chojiro" is a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, but if you order directly from the chef, they will make it for you right away! They offer hand-pressed sushi, and there is also a showcase for displaying fresh fish. The prices range from 120 yen to 810 yen per plate, and they also have assorted sashimi, grilled dishes, and fried dishes. The atmosphere is lively, and the chefs are friendly. Today, I ordered a draft beer, a seafood platter, a tuna sampler, a salmon sampler, and fatty salmon. The tuna sampler was delicious, especially the fatty tuna. The salmon sampler was also good, with the fatty salmon being the highlight. The fatty salmon ordered separately was a bit disappointing. Overall, the food was fresh and tasty, and the service was great. Thank you to the chefs at "Nigiri Chojiro Ogura Store" for a wonderful meal!

It had been a while since I last ate there, but it was still delicious (^o^) lol. When I first went to this sushi restaurant, which is part of a chain, I honestly didn't have high expectations. But starting with the simmered conger eel, then the fatty tuna, and the sliced sazae (horned turban), I was able to eat until my stomach was full at a good price. The red miso soup I had might have been a one-time thing, but it was really strong in miso flavor! It might be a matter of personal preference, but I personally prefer miso soup with a lighter miso taste and a stronger fish broth flavor. Overall, Nagajiro is a delicious sushi restaurant, isn't it? (^^)

Visit Date: Tuesday in August (2nd visit) Menu: Lunch Bamboo for 1,026 yen I visited the restaurant again after learning about their lunch menu during my previous visit. - Food: - Lunch Bamboo: A set including tuna, squid, shrimp, squid legs, egg, sea urchin, octopus, fresh rolled sushi, mackerel roll, tofu miso soup, chawanmushi, clear soup (seaweed and cucumber), dessert (almond jelly, etc). Chawanmushi was mediocre, dessert was average. The clear soup was also just okay. I felt that opting for the Plum set at 820 yen would have been sufficient without the chawanmushi and dessert. - Fatty Salmon: Expensive but the fish was thick and delicious. Personally, I think the regular salmon (260 yen) would be better for the price. - Price (Cost Performance): Lunch Bamboo fills you up but the non-sushi items were not impressive. Overall, if you're going to order Lunch Bamboo, it might be better to go for the Plum Lunch and add individual items as needed. Visit Date: Tuesday in August 2014 Menu: Various individual sushi orders I decided to try out a nearby high-end revolving sushi restaurant due to some extra income. The first stop was Nigiri Chojiro. - Food: - Tuna Trio: A set of fatty tuna, medium fatty tuna, and lean tuna. The portions were smaller compared to ordering individually but the quality was top-notch. It is on the pricier side. - Scallop: Large and delicious. It felt like having two pieces of the fair live scallop from Sushiro (180 yen each), which was just right. - Spear Squid: Sweet and tasty, easy to chew. Slightly on the expensive side. - Yellowtail: Fresher and thicker than Sushiro's yellowtail, but felt a bit overpriced. - Salmon: Large, thick, and flavorful. The price is high but reasonable. - Price (Cost Performance): Tuna, salmon, and scallop are worth the price, but yellowtail did not feel worth the cost. - Access & Exterior Environment: Parking available for several cars, including a shared space with Tsutaya, making it convenient for families. - Wait Time, Service, Interior Environment: Short wait times on weekdays, but some wait on weekends. Ordering directly from the staff or chefs can be challenging due to limited staff. Overall, while the prices are over three times that of Sushiro, the quality justifies the cost.

It had been a long time since I visited this sushi restaurant with 4 friends. The place is convenient as they have parking for Long Jiro cars. There was a bit of a wait, with about 3 groups ahead of us. The restaurant offers private rooms, a counter, and an active atmosphere. This kind of large sushi restaurant is rare in Kyoto, making it a valuable find. We enjoyed the classic horse mackerel sashimi and fried fish bones. The assorted shellfish was delicious, especially Long Jiro's favorite scallops. The eel sushi and beer were also great. While there are many 100 yen sushi places nearby, Long Jiro's freshness and quality stand out. I will definitely be coming back.

"Even at a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, Nagajiro is considered high-end. I sometimes wonder what it's like, so I decided to check it out. I always end up feeling like 'it's a bit expensive for the sushi I got' and leave with regrets. However, this Kokura branch might be a bit better. I feel like Nagajiro plates don't rotate as often compared to other sushi restaurants. Maybe it's because they have a lot of orders. But at this Kokura branch, there are quite a few plates rotating around. The sushi and rolls are beautifully made, so I feel like grabbing the ones that are rotating around. When I tried them, the rice was fluffy and the fish was thick. It felt like it was worth the price. In reality, the restaurant was packed during lunchtime, with almost all seats at the counter taken. It might be one of the better chain restaurants in the Nagajiro franchise. However, since it's a chain, this good experience might have been a one-time thing. I want to go back again, but it's a bit far from where I usually go, and I might regret it if the quality drops. So, I'll leave this restaurant with a good impression for now. If the timing is right, I might consider revisiting. My rating from my visit in June 2013 was 3.04. Overall: 3.0, Food & Taste: 3.5, Service: 3.0, Atmosphere: 3.0, Value for Money: 2.8, Drinks: 0.0"

I found out that lunch on weekdays is a good deal, so I went with my husband and my 4 and 2-year-old children. We arrived around 11:50 for the 11:30 seating and sat at a sunken kotatsu table. They didn't have child-sized chairs, but they provided cushions to raise the kids a bit. I chose the bamboo lunch set for 980 yen, with miso soup and udon for the 2-year-old. For the 4-year-old, I ordered the children's set with toys for 580 yen. The meal included sushi, rolled sushi, inari sushi, chawanmushi, and a side dish of simmered hijiki seaweed and udon. For dessert, there was Baumkuchen with fresh cream. It was delicious, and we were very satisfied with the generous portions. The udon was enough for the 2-year-old's appetite. The children's set was also impressive, with 4 pieces of makizushi, kappamaki, ebi fry, potato fries, and 3 pieces of chicken nuggets. The ebi fry had a crispy coating and was delicious. I would like to visit again.

I visited the restaurant around 11:40 am on Sunday. Since it was right after opening, there were plenty of empty seats. The quality of the sushi was definitely better compared to other conveyor belt sushi restaurants. It's worth the higher price! I heard they serve fresh bluefin tuna on weekends and holidays. I tried the bluefin tuna sushi that day and it was delicious. I also ordered miso soup with a soft-boiled egg. The presence of the soft-boiled egg was really nice. When you crush it, the yolk flows out smoothly. It's irresistible to see the yolk flowing in the miso soup! I was full after just 7 plates. Maybe good taste fills you up quickly. I will definitely go again. Thank you for the meal.

I was looking for a restaurant with a garage at lunchtime, but everywhere was full. Then I remembered this place with a spacious garage, so I had no problem parking. When I entered the restaurant, the welcoming call was very pleasant, and the service was excellent. I ordered the lunch set menu which included a choice of udon or red miso soup, and I chose the red miso soup. As I waited for my food, I looked around the restaurant and saw that it was about 70% full, quite bustling, and seemed to be a popular place. As for the food, I had 7 pieces of sushi (tuna, squid, egg, whelk, mackerel, yellowtail, and eel or conger eel, I can't remember), 3 pieces of white sesame roll, and 3 pieces of cucumber roll. The sushi was well-made and delicious, and the red miso soup was decent. The pickled eggplant side dish was generous for the price, and switching the red miso soup to udon would have been quite filling. This restaurant is a great find if you're looking for a place with a garage.

The rotating sushi restaurant is quite trendy, I think. We decided to go in because it didn't seem too crowded even though it was a holiday, but we had to wait. It's definitely popular. While waiting, customers kept coming one after another. We were seated in a tatami room where the sushi doesn't rotate, and we ordered using a touch panel. So high-tech! We had eel, squid, squid tentacles, fatty tuna, striped jack, yellowtail, egg, tuna, natto, cucumber, and chawanmushi. It's so good! The wait was worth it! We spent just under 10,000 yen for the whole family. It's definitely a popular spot!

I often stop by here alone after work on weekdays. I visited around 7:30 in the evening and was able to find a seat, although the place was almost full. The atmosphere inside was not as busy as on weekends, but still bustling. This is a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, so sushi plates keep rotating around on the belt. Sometimes it gets a bit crowded, making it a little difficult to grab plates. The freshness of the fish varies depending on the day. However, the taste is definitely a step above the typical 100 yen sushi chain. The service is good, with friendly staff and prompt drink refills. I look forward to coming back for a quick bite before heading home.
