At the base of Kyoto Tower, there is an evolving food court called "Sand," where you can find a seafood bowl being served at the outdoor counter. The seafood bowl can be enjoyed at any of the shared seating areas around the food court. Payment is made at the same location as the revolving sushi restaurant, which can be a bit confusing when it's crowded. The quality of the seafood seems good, and the fact that you can enjoy it for around 1000 yen is quite rare considering the location. Overall, Sand and the other shops create a nice atmosphere.

I was able to enter without lining up before 10 pm. However, many of the sushi items I wanted to try were already sold out. There were only two types of shellfish left, which I enjoy. I ended up ordering the same sushi twice, so I only got to try three plates. It was disappointing, but I hope to visit again before they run out of items. Thank you for the meal.

The food was delicious. However, my order was forgotten, some items were not on the touch panel menu, so I couldn't order them, and the staff seemed rushed and it was unsettling. I usually like this chain of restaurants, but this time was disappointing.

I was quite tired after walking around during my day trip to Kyoto on November 16th (Wednesday). This time, I used a travel package called "Zurashi Tabi," which included round-trip transportation and a "choose your experience" option for 18,800 yen. There are several different experiences to choose from in Kyoto, but due to limited time, I decided to go up Kyoto Tower (by elevator) at the very end. Well, the night view is nice, but since Kyoto doesn't have tall buildings, I personally think the daytime view is better. However, it was nice to receive a 1,000 yen coupon that can be used at the shops there. I made sure to buy souvenirs on the 1st floor before the shop closed at 8:30 pm and used the coupon there. The basement floor has various dining options and gives off a youthful vibe. I entered the restaurant at 8:06 pm, with an hour to spare before catching the 9:15 pm Nozomi train. Let's have a quick drink and snack since I had ramen at 5:00 pm. Orders are made using a tablet. I started with a bottle of beer, a small bottle of Super Dry. The sushi ranged from 110 yen plates to 550 yen plates, with a total of 8 types available. Tuna and fresh squid were 110 yen each, cheaper than Sushiro. After sanitizing my throat with Super Dry, I ordered four plates of sushi: Tekka Maki, Yellowtail, Tuna, and Whelk. The tuna was cheap as expected, a bit watery. However, the Yellowtail and Whelk were delicious. The kitchen is located one level above the counter, so you can't see the chefs at work, but there seems to be a sushi rice molding machine, possibly operated by a "sushi robot." They also had a fair featuring the Goto Islands of Nagasaki, but visiting earlier is better as many items were sold out by 8:00 pm.

In the basement of Kyoto Tower, they were sold out of assorted dishes, so we ordered individual items. The tuna, scallop, negitoro, and seared salmon mayo were all safe choices and delicious. At first, they served seared shrimp mayo instead of salmon, but when we pointed it out, they corrected it to seared salmon mayo, although we had actually ordered the seared salmon cheese. The seared dish was tasty, so we decided it was okay with mayo, but it was a bit disappointing.

The ground floor of Kyoto Tower is a sushi restaurant called Daiki Suisan Kaiten Sushi inside Kyoto Tower Sand. The Kaiten Sushi Set is made to order, so it is not rotating sushi. It includes dishes like grilled eel, salmon roe, salmon, tuna, and other popular items all on one plate, allowing you to enjoy a delicious meal!

I visited the restaurant at night. I ordered crab miso, fatty tuna, 5 pieces of premium tuna, large simmered eel sushi, live flounder, white snow flounder, live mackerel, large shrimp, steamed egg custard, clam soup to share, and a small fugu tempura and sashimi platter. It was quite crowded, so some dishes took a while to come out after ordering. The portions were big and satisfying, and everything was very delicious. It seems like you can't make reservations, but luckily there was a seat available when I arrived, so I was able to wait inside. I will definitely come back. Thank you for the meal.

Today, I went to a revolving sushi restaurant inside Kyoto Tower. Daiki Suisan Revolving Sushi is a chain restaurant mainly located in the Kansai region. I witnessed a 50kg bluefin tuna being freshly cut into slices right before my eyes. I enjoyed various types of bluefin tuna sushi, including Otoro, Chutoro, Akami, Maguro, and Binchou Maguro. Each piece was delicious, with the Otoro melting in my mouth and the Chutoro and Akami being flavorful with just the right amount of fat. I also tried the rare "Nakaochi" cut of bluefin tuna, recommended by the chef, which allowed me to savor the rich umami flavor of the tuna. Overall, I was able to enjoy all these different types of bluefin tuna sushi for around 1,500 yen. The entertainment of watching the tuna being cut combined with the delicious sushi made it a wonderful dining experience at this station-front spot in Kyoto Tower.

I went to a revolving sushi restaurant at the food court of Kyoto Tower today. ■Daiki Suisan Revolving Sushi It seems to be a chain of revolving sushi restaurants mainly in the Kansai region. The restaurant started from a seafood wholesale business, so they seem to have a commitment to the freshness of locally sourced ingredients. While you can enjoy revolving sushi at the counter inside the restaurant, for rice bowl dishes, you can enjoy them at the Kyoto Tower's food court. So, I tried a tuna bowl at the food court in front of the restaurant. ●Tuna Bowl It seems to be a specialty menu at Daiki Suisan. On top of the rice, there were plenty of tuna slices, tamago (egg), shiso leaves, and nori (seaweed). The tuna in the center of the bowl was fatty and delicious (^-^). I decided to add wasabi soy sauce and savor it. The freshly cut tuna was delicious. It was nice that each slice was large! I also enjoyed the richness of the fatty tuna. The soft, melting deliciousness was delightful (^-^). I was happy with the satisfying portion size! I finished it all in one go. Thank you for the meal.

I visited around 19:50 on a regular day. It was not crowded. - Mega Seafood Bowl for 980 yen Ingredients included: slightly seared salmon x2, slightly seared bintoro x2, seared hamachi, negitoro, ikura, anago The searing on the ingredients was well done. It tasted delicious.

☆Oki Suisan Kyoto Tower Sand Shop☆ Starting as a wholesaler of salted fish, the revolving sushi chain store 【Oki Suisan】 with over 45 stores mainly in Osaka has opened in front of Kyoto Station! They deliver fish directly from Sakaiminato in Tottori Prefecture, ensuring fresh ingredients at all times. Sushi plates range from 100 yen to 700 yen, with a variety of dishes including appetizers, soups, and assorted sushi platters. Their tuna, priced at 100 yen, is a steal! Feeling exhausted from the heat, sushi was the perfect pick-me-up for me.

I visited around 19:40 on Friday. Unlike weekdays, Tower Sandwich was bustling. - (Aurora) Salmon Ikura Don 1180 yen - The paper on top of the Salmon Poster's "Aurora" was posted and erased. Perhaps they have stopped using Norwegian salmon. The salmon was delicious. - The soy sauce in the fish-shaped plastic container was familiar and tasty. The soy sauce for the donburi placed on the counter was light in color and flavor, with a noticeable saltiness. - The rice was vinegared rice, with just the right concentration. - There was more ikura than in the sample photo. - Thanks to the seaweed, hand-rolled sushi was enjoyable. - The scent of the shiso leaf was slightly hard to detect. - The tamagoyaki was sweet.

I visited for dinner in June 2020. The location is in the basement of Kyoto Tower. It was empty due to Corona this time as well. I ordered tuna, salmon roe, chawanmushi, and udon. It's cheap, the tuna is delicious, and it's nice to be able to eat quickly. It's like a lie that foreign tourists were full at the restaurant. There are also closed shops around Kyoto Station, but this is a restaurant that I want to support.

Today, I visited the Daiki Suisan revolving sushi restaurant at the basement of Kyoto Tower. I ordered a draft beer for 500 yen, a tuna assortment for 950 yen, a shrimp assortment for 700 yen, and a green onion tuna for 200 yen. The shrimp prepared in three ways - raw, boiled, and seared - were particularly delicious. Thank you for the meal.

I visited this restaurant for dinner in March 2020. It is located in the basement of Kyoto Tower. Due to the impact of the coronavirus, there were hardly any customers at Kyoto Tower. The usual crowds were nowhere to be seen, but this revolving sushi restaurant was bustling. I ordered sea urchin, salmon roe, firefly squid, and tuna, all of which were reasonably priced and delicious. Normally, this restaurant is mostly frequented by foreigners, but this time it was only Japanese customers. I received a free coupon for miso soup on my way out. I would like to visit again. Highly recommend.

This is a sushi restaurant inside Kyoto Tower. It's a conveyor belt sushi restaurant. Luckily, it wasn't crowded so we were able to get in without waiting. I ordered only the sushi I wanted as it was a conveyor belt sushi restaurant. It was delicious, I love conveyor belt sushi. Sushi always tastes better at good places. But good sushi is usually expensive. So, I always look for good cost performance at conveyor belt sushi restaurants. I also love Sushiro and Hamazushi, but I wanted to try something different. Overall, the sushi rice was average, but the toppings were tasty. It's a decent place for a quick sushi fix.

After enjoying udon at "Shion," we had Chinese noodles at "Seiyouken" for dinner. While waiting for my wife and child who were shopping for souvenirs at Kyoto Tower, the clock passed 9 PM. Feeling hungry, I couldn't bear to leave Kyoto without eating, so I persuaded my family to agree. However, ramen was vetoed, so we ended up at the revolving sushi restaurant "Daiki Suisan." Located on the basement floor of the building where Kyoto Tower is, known as "KYOTO TOWER SANDO," it was a stylish food court called "FOOD HAL." It was quite lively with many foreign tourists. We finally got a seat at 9:40 PM and tried the powdered green tea, which was delicious. We ordered dishes since there were not many sushi plates rotating. We had eel for 100 yen per plate and ordered two plates of tuna. The chawanmushi was not great, but we were satisfied with the rest of the sushi. We ended with two more plates of tuna. The bill came out to be over 7,500 yen, but we were completely satisfied with the delicious food. After paying at 10:10 PM, we wondered where to go next.

I didn't have high expectations when I went to Daiki Suisan at El Machi, because the seafood bowl I had there before wasn't that great. But surprisingly, this time it was quite delicious.
